PUT THES FLAG ON THE SEAS
St Albans MESSENGER.

st. Adams Messenger
The American flag has practically
been driven off the high seas by the
German threat. Our government
ought to protect our nationals in their
right to sail the oceans and if this can
only be done by sending armed con-
voys, then they ought to be sent. If
a man has threatened to shoot up a
street the police do their work and
clean up that outlaw so that peaceful
citizensImay proceed about their busi-
ness. 1t should be no different with
the ocean, which is a highway for the
use of all peoples. Germany is an
outlaw and should be treated as such.
If no American ship puts to sea and
if no Americans take to the seas, the
dreaded issue of sterner measures will
not be raised, but what do rights
amount to if no one dares to enjoy
them? 1t would be like the farmer
who had almost taught his horse how
to get along without eating when the
animal up and died. American rights
ought to ,be asserted and maintained.
Ships under contract to carry United
States mail are now tied up at then
docks. Nothing must interfere with
the United States mail, " is sentence
we have all heard. 1t is good time tc
make the application.

EYES OF THE NATION
NOW ON NEBRASKA
Prof. Pugsley Says State is Be-
ing Praised for the Way
it is Meeting War
Problems.

High praise for Nebraska's initial
moves in meeting problems arising
from the war was expressed by Prot.
C. w. Pugsley, director of the agri-
cultural extension service of the Uni
versity Of Nebraska. He has just re-
turned from a, weeks visit to Wash
ington, D, C., to take up matters re-
lating to regular extension work and
to the war emergency.
Il am proud OF the way Nebraska
and other middle west states are
going at things" declared Prof. Pugs-
ley. They haven't said much, but
they are certainly making a bigger
showing than eastern states. This is
true of farm and town folks, an
especially in the utilization of back
yards and vacant lots
Among other things, Prof. Pugsley
presented to the agricultural commit
tee and to members of congress the
views of Nebraska farmers OH the
revenue and food bills. These opin-
ions were formulated at conference
of representatives of farmers organ
izations in the state. called by Prof.
Pugsley shortly before his departure
for Washington.
Approve Farmers Views.
1.-THE farmers of Nebraska = are
anxious to do their part i'll meeting
the expense of the war. as we'll as
in increasing food production" said
he. They feel las expressed by their
representatives at this conference),
that it may be necessary, If the war
continues long, to fix maximum and
minimum prices-not only of the
things the farmer sells, but of the

victory. True, we cannot all go into
the trenches. Some of us are not of
an age to go. But we can at least buy
a bond. Any American who is worth
$50, or whose credit is worth $50 and
who does not buy one of these bonds,
is, not worthy of the protection given
him by the boys who go into the
trenches and face the hell Of Euro
pean fire.
Y Famine a Great Enemy.
"The thing for us to do is to meet
the great enemy-famine. There
isn't nation i'll Europe today that
can feed itself. If we don't raise
much more food than ever be-
fore, more people will starve
throughout the world than have been
killed thus far i'll battle. y
True, the preceding speaker has
said, the farmer works hard, and can-
not be asked to work much harder in
all effort TO produce. But there is one
thing he can do. He can farm little
more scientifically. He can reduce the
waste on the farm. Waste is our ma
tional vice.
Much Food Wasted.
ut extends FROM the farmer right
through all classes. We talk about it
and grow eloquent in denounc-
ing it at times, but deep down,
we have a sneaking pride III our
wasting what others need. There are
$700,000,000 worth of food products
wasted in the American kitchens; and
the farmers waste 81 ,000,000,0O0 worth
of barnyard manure in year.
THE average American wants not
only enough to eat on his table, but
he wants enough to battle in. He
likes to look at it. In times of peace
this is bad enough, for there are
always some in the world who are
hungry, but in times like these, such
waste is despicable and disloyal.
To-day we mill II per cent of the
wheat berry into human food, while
the rest is made into food for ami
mails. In Europe they mill 80 per cent
of it into human food, and besides
they mix with it, rye, flour, oat flour,
and other nutritious grain meals,
II am not a prophet, but I feel safe
in saying that we will be doing the
same thing before the year is over,
for there isn't going to be wheat
enough to make bread for the world.
Lose Wholesome Part.
To-day our mills take rice and pol
ish off all the brown part and make
the rice white, although this brown
part is very wholesome as food.
1--WE do not propose to fix price in
order to reduce the price of produce
to the farmer, but what we propose,
if congress gives US power, is to guar
antee the farmer minimum price,
and then fix maximum price which
will hold the food sperulator. These
food spectators are allies of the
kaiser and are dis!oyal to every Amer
lean principle.
Following the campaign we made
in the south, l saw planters go out
and order fields that had been planted
to cotton plowed up and corn put IN,
in order that the food supply might be
increased"

Alkali in Soap
Bad For the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully
if you want to keep your hair looking
its best, Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsihed cocoanut oil
(Which is pure and greaseless), and is
better than the most expensive soap
or anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in. 1t makes an abundance
of rich, creamy lather, which rinses
out easily, removing every particle oil
dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil.
The hair dries quickly and evenly and
it leaves the scalp soft, and the hair
fine and silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy
and easy to manage.
You can get mulsifed coeoanut oil
at any pharmacy; it's very cheap, and
a few ounces will supply every mems
Der of the family for months.-Adv.

Farm Machinery Committee Of

cry is Critical.

The great Nebraska corn and wheat
crops, to say nothing of other big
crops produced in this state, are
threatened by shortage of farm ma
chinery, according to members of the
farm machinery committee of the
food congress. which met at the Com
mercial club during the morning. The
committee decided to take steps to
arouse the farmers of the state and
to ask them to raise such ROW"
over the matter that the federal gov
eminent will take action to see that
machinery manufacturers are supplied
with sufficient steel with which TO
build at least as much machinery this
year as during last year. Frank Hal

High Prices Solve Problem.
How the prices of grain and live
stock have solved the back TO the

meeting, at which it was shown that
hundreds of young men. fresh from
the universities and colleges, had
found they could make more money
by going to the farms than they could
by entering Offices in the cities.

THE HEART.

The heart is the power that trans
mits the sublime potentialities to the
body. It is an exceedingly delicate
organ; it is the most delicate organ in
the body. 1t registers truly the aetivi-
ties of the body and the influences of
the mind. Every emotion has its
effects upon the heart.
Length of life depends upon the
careful guarding of vital forces and
the heart is the crux of the matter in
the materialistic realm.
Lessen the labor of the heart and
life will last longer. Lessen the cares,
worries and fears and the heart will
be wonderfully benefited. The labor
of the heart is made by errors in living.
Fat is an evidence of errors in living;
it shows that the heart is carrying over
weight on account of long continued
errors. Fat makes the heart work

Stage Art and Motion Pictures.

AS a form of entertainment, not in
struction, the motion picture will prob
ably develop along the lines Of free,
even fantastic, romance, Of melodrama
and Of simple narrative. The stage,
free from the burden Of supplying these
forms Of entertainment, will probably
concentrate more on the mission Of
the spoken work, which Is to convey
ideas and illuminate character, on the
creation Of the complete illusion of
reality and On the pictorial art Of scene
painting. The movies and the spoken
drama are not so antagonistic as We
at first pessimistically supposed. Time,
we think, viii prove to us that in real
ity they are two different forms of art,
as different as painting and sculpture.
