A MUSTARD POULTICE.
II Raised Lively Runnpus, and II
Didn't Cure the Cold.

Lord Darlington used to be great
practical joker, but he was once the
victim of his own reputation. He was
at the time stopping at hotel In Cape
Town. In the same hotel were young
couple, and, the husband having bad
cold, the wife left her room to obtain
for him the solace of a mustard poul-
tice. She left him asleep and, thinking
she knew her way, descended the stairs
and, procuring a particularly virulent
concoction, made her way back to her
room. But doors are much alike In
hotels, and, seeing one ajar, as she had
left her own, she entered. Creeping
quietly to the bedside, she saw. as she
thought. the form of her sleeping lord
and master Hastily bending over
him. she placed the fatal irritant upon
his chest.
No sooner had she done so than
movement of the sleeper revealed. to
her horror, that she had made terri
bic mistake. Too frightened to recap
ture the discriminating poultice, she fled
from the room and. rushing down the
passage, discovered her own door and
bolted herself in.
1t was but a minute and the storm
broke. The hotel was in an uproar.
The mustard poultice had been placed
on the chest of the corpulent. elderly
governor general. The explosion OF
his wrath. his bowls of rage as the
mustard did Its work, brought serv-
ants and manager to his bedside.
The situation did not permit OF a.
explanation. Furious with Indignation,
he declared himself the victim of q
gross joke and the efforts of the mai
tire d'hoteI to pacify him were in vain.
He swore that the practical joker was
nobody else than Lord Darlington, and
the next day, Tuning and indignant
left the place.
So did a very contrite young wife
and a husband whose cold was no bet
ter.

To Increase Production,

The Government has announced a
war agricultural program, calling for
the production of more than one billion
bushels of wheat in 1918, also crop
of rye of 100000 bushels next year
All of the northwestern states are
asked to increase their acreage for
next year. Washington is asked to
increase its acreage Is per cent.
State Commissioner of Agriculture
E. F. Benson, is working On plan for
locating available agricultural land in
the state, not now under cultivation
with view to bringing the same un-
der cultivation in 1918. He wants
help. He can find the land; he can
tell them what crops to raise On it;
he can get the loals necessary, but
his trouble is to find the men. Under
the present large economic return
from agriculture and the patriotic
service which food production renders,
it ought not be hard to find tie men,
The plan has not yet been worked out
in full; the details will be announced
later

amount subscribed, over three billion
dollars, to the Liberty Loan was a
splendid demonstration of the worth of
good name. For generations the
United States government bond has
been a synonym for absolute security,
because the honor of our country is
behind it. "As good as a government
bond" was as common a term as CAS-
good as gold" in speaking of securi-
ties or investments.
The United States has reaped the re-
ward from its own people for never
having defaulted on an obligation.
"Our sacred honor" is no idle phrase
in the United States. The tradition
of our national honor began in Wash
lngton's day when in his first inaugural
address he said "The foundation Of
our national defense will be laid in the
pure and immutable principles of
morality" and it has been preserved
through all our history.
The honor of the United States is
back of the Liberty Loan Bonds and
all America and all the world know
that they are absolutely safe.

Liberty Bonds

Every holder of Liberty Loan Bond
and every prospective purchaser in the
next issue of the Liberty Loan Bonds
should bear in mind that the purchase
of Liberty Loan Bond helps the GOV
eminent of the United States, helps the
citizens of the United States and helps
the purchaser as a citizen as well as
being at the same time a splendid
private investment.
Moreover every purchaser of a
Liberty Loan Bond serves humanity
itself.
One can serve his country or serve
his fellow citizens without serving him
self, his family, and posterity. The
purchase of the Liberty Loan Bond is
to make the world safe for Democracy
and every purchaser of a bond does
something to that great end by which
not only the present but future genera

BULLET WORKS ITS WAY OUT
Doctors Think Charley Bracket Now
Has Chance for life.
Special to The World.

Special to The World
CLAREMORE. okla, June "a
Charley Bracket, who was shot four
times here last Tuesday while resist
ing arrest, may live, the physicians
think. At the time Of the shooting
Lot j. Langley, city patrolman, ana
Jean Haverfield, deputy sheriff, were
endeavoring to place him under arresS
for the alleged disposal of a stolen
car. When they went to his home,
the officers were confronted by
Bracket with drawn .45-revolver.
He made threats and endeavored to
disarm Langley. The shooting re-
suited.
Bracket was badly shot, one ball
entering the left elbow and shattering
the bone, another entered his upper
right forearm, another shattered his
left hip and the fourth entered his
left side, ranging upward and inflict-
ing what was thot to be a mortal
wound as the bullet was not recovered
for several days.
However, a day or so after the
shooting, Bracket, very low and un-
able to talk, sensed a strange feeling
in the lower part OF his back. Bi
signs he sought to draw the physi-
cians's attention to this particular part
of his body but the physician believ-
ing him to be deliriGus only sought TO
quiet him and left the room.
When he had gone, Bracket, by
continued signs, succeeded in making
the nurse understand that a certain
point in his back was hurting. The
nurse turned him over and made an
examination. The bullet was found
near the surface of the skin. 1t nad
worked its way out.

Operation Essential.

WASHINGTON, June 23 - Few
women have any idea Of the CONNER
cial machinery which makes it pos
sble for them in every town of any
size to get at any time of the day a
loaf of freshly baked bread. We so
take this convenience for granted that
we do not exercise even ordinary fore
thot about the amount of bread that
we order in the morning. We know
that If we take two loaves in the
morning and find ourselves short
toward tea time that an extra fresh
loaf is easy to get. 1t is only when
our attention is challenged that com
mon sense tells us that this is no mat
ter Of course, but the result OF large
the machinery and efforts are have
just been made clear by the govern
ment's council of national defense.
War TO BE Fought on Wheat.
The fact that this war is to be
fought on wheat MS much If not more
than on guns and men is becoming
clear to us all.
The government is truning its
machinery to study the practical
points of saving wheat without too
largely disturbing business. The coun-
Gil of national defense has a subordi-
nate body called the commercial econ
Omy board. 1t is the business of this
board to see where we can make use
full economies in the distribution of
commodities. One of the first things
to which this commercial economy
board turned its attention was wheat

was the continuous supply of fresh
bread on the retailers shelves. They
saw that he was carrying every day
more than he sold, which meant that
the bakers who supplied him were
making more than they sold.
The commercial economy board at
once undertook an investigation. II Is
one of the prettiest pieces Of work that
has recently been turned out in Wash
ington. The board sent its agents to a
number of leading bakers and wrote
to over four hundred others in all
parts of the country in order to find
out what their practice was. 1t was
discovered that largely for competi-
tive reasons these bakers kept the
shelves OF the bread retailer stocked
fully with fresh bread. In doing this
they did not expect the retailer to sell
all the bread, taking back what was
unsold.
Means Great Waste.
Now what is done with this 4 per
cent of returned loaves? Some of II
is sold to the poor, who go direct to
the bakers for 1t. 1t is perfectly plain.
however, that if the bakers did not
oversupply the retailers and were not
obliged to bring back the leftover
iOoNtS tfty tbulu dllOIu 10 sell lDt
bread on the ground at as low price
ds they do now. or the per cent
returned, probably u per cent is fed
to pigs, chickens and other animals.
Now make a little calculation. Sup
pose in your town the bakers put out
ten thousand loaves a day-a small
town requires as many-there were
15O loares fed to the pigs and chick
ems. Extend this calculation. There
are bakeries in our large cities which
turn out over half a million loaves
a day. That means 1900 for the pigs.
1t needs no argument to those who
realize what the shortage of wheat
means to convince them that this Leak
age must be stopped. All that think
ing people ask is how 1t can be done.
The bakers themselves are beginning
to take steps. Inquiry among the
bakers shows that probably on an
average of at least so per cent are in
favor of stopping bread returns; that
is they are in favor of selling to the
retail bread dealer only what he be-
lieves he can dispose of. This plan
has already been put into effect by
the bakers of Washington city and
they say it is working satisfactorily.
Housewives Should Stock Up.
And here the women come in. They
are the bread buyers, and the no.
return bread plan means that they
must make their calculations for the
days supply and do it in such a busi-
nesslike fashion that they will not be
left in the afternoon without loaf,
that If they are so left they will not
complain to their grocer, but that they
will accept the fact as a proof of their
own lack of business foresight in
ordering.
1t will be putting this many loaves
a day into the hands of hungry wom-
en- and children and fighting soldiers.
and will be one element in that great
task that we have before us of so
handling the wheat crops of the world
that every man and woman in all Of
the allied world will have enough to
eat in the long struggle that is be-
fore us.
