due to the increasing Competi-
ton in the buying, fatteninQ, and
selling of Cattle, and and the de
Creasing in area of the great
grazing lands of the West, the re-
lative profits in the marketing of
livestock are decreasing. Even
stock raisers or dairy farmers
cannot maintain soil fertility in
definitely without the addition OF
plant food usually obtained from
the farms of other people in the
form of feed. Even Bran, for in
stance, one of the very best of
dairy feeds is wheat product.
South Dakota will continue to
become more a livestock and
dairy producing state, but she
will never do so to the exclusion
of wheat production, When she
has reached her highest develop
ment she will have we'll balanced
farms in which the production of
wheat and other cereals will have
their place as well as live stock
and dairy cattle.

My FELLOW COUNTRYMEN:

loved country into the grim and
terrible war for democracy and
human rights which has shaken
the world creates so many pro
blemS of national life and action
which calls for immediate con
SideratiOn and settlement that
hope you will permit me to ad-
dress to YOU few words of ear
/ nest counsel and appeal with re-
CARDS to them.
We are rapidly putting our navy
upon an effective war footing and
are about to create and equip a
| great army, but these are the
simplest parts of the great task
to which we have addressed our
/ selves. There is not a single
selfish element, so far as | can
see, in the cause we are fighting
for. We are fighting for what we
believe and wish to be the rights
of mankind and for the future
| peace and security of the world.
To do this great thing Worthily
and successfully we must devote
ourselves to the service without
regards to profit or material ad-
vantage and with an energy and
intelligence that will rise to the
level of the enterprise itself, We
must realize to the full how great
the task is and how many things,
how many Kinds and elements of
capacity and service and Self-sac-
ritiCe, it involves.
These, then, are the things we
must do, and do we'll, besides
A2htinQ-the things without
which mere fighting would be
fruitleSs:
We must supply abundant food
for ourselves and for our armies
/ and our Sealnen not only, but also
for a large part of the nations
with whom we have now made
| common cause, in whose support
and by whose sides we shall be
fighting.
We must supply ships by the
hundreds out of our Shipyards to
carry to the Otherside of the sea,
submarines, what will every day
be needed there and abundant
materials out of our fields and
our mines and our factories with
which not only to clothe and equ-
ip our own forces on land and sea
but also to Clothe and support our
people for whom the gallant fel-
lows under arms can no longer
work, to help clothe and equip
the armies with which we are CO
operating in Europe, and to keep
the looms and manufactures
there in raw material; coal to
keep the ships at sea and in the
furnaces of hundreds of factories
across the sea; steel out of which
to make arms and ammunition
both here and there; rails for
worn-out railways back of the
fighting fronts; locomotives and
rolling stock to take the place Of
those going to pieces; mules, cat
tie for labor and for military ser
vice; everything with which the
people of England and France
and Italy and Russia have usual
| ly'Supplied themselves but can
not now afford the men, the ma
terials, or the machinery to make.
1t is evident to every thinking
man that our industries, on the
farms, in the Shipyards, in the
factories, must be made more
prolific and more efficient than
ever and that they must be more
economically managed and better
adapted to the particular require
ments of our task than they
have been; and what want
to say is that the men and the
woman who devote their thought
and their energy to these
things will be serving the
country and conducting the fight
for peace and freedom Just as

The nation and the race is vitally

A national vitality commission of
scientists should be appointed to study

nation has no asset Of greater value

PHYSICALLY UNFIT VOLUNTEERS

The American people are now get
ting a striking demonstration of the
physical unpreparedness Of the aver
age young man. They are getting coz
crete and convincing evidence of the
urgent need of the physical education
and training which our young meu
would receive under the Universal
Military Service plan.
Reports from all over the country
indicate that fully so per cent of our
war volunteers are rejected for health
impairments and physical defects.
Prominent among the latter is poor
physique.
Many editorial writer's have strenu
0usly denied the assertion made sby
certain conservationists in recent
years that the physically low-powered
group IL our population was excessive
and apparently increasing. They now
have al opportunity to learn Of the
physical condition of our young men
from the official records.
T. year ago 1851 National Guards
n.en were called to the southern boz
der. They had already been medically
selected under the army regulations
by the militia surgeons when they en-
listed, but re-examination by the
regular army doctors resulted in send
ing home 2S,721, or is per cent of
them.
The nature of their physical defi-
cieneies may be noted in the follow
ing tables based on a substantial num-
ber Of these reflections.

Representative Wooster
Solves Teche-Lafour-
che Highway Prob
lem

Representative Isaac Wooster, of
St. Mary, has solved the Teche-La-
fourche problem, which has been the
one weak spot in system of good
roads, extending from New iberia to
New Orleans. At the next regular
session of the Legislature, he will in
troduce a bill authorizing the Sec
rotary of State to pay to the State
Highway Association an allotted pro-
portion Of the revenues derived from
automobile licenses collected in the
Parishes of Vermillion, st. Martin,
iberia, st. Mary, Assumption and
Terrebonne. This fund is to be used
as collateral, upon which to issue
certificates Of Indebtedness, and to
borrow the money necessar! to con-
struct model highway across the
stretch of loan and mud now known
as the Houma Road.
Mr.. Wooster stated to a represen-
tative of THE REVIEW that nei-
Their Assumption nor Terrebonne felt
justified in constructing road thru
|, their highlands, which could only be
nominally beneficial to them and of
great import to the neighboring par
ishes, and further that the eight rep
resentatives from the Parishes of the
Teche-Lafourche country had agreed
to support his bill, which Fill divide
the expense of the road proportion
ately to the benefit derived there !
from and without direct taxation.
; "At the special session of the Leg
islature," Mr.. Wooster explained,
"my attention was directed to a law
then being passed, which turned the
monies derived from the sale of au-
tomobile licenses in the Parishes of
Orleans, jefferson, st. John, Tangi- !
pahoa and st. Tammany over to the
State Highway Association for the
purpose Of maintaining good roads
throughout this section of the state.
This has already been accomplished,
and / believe similar action will solve
the, sTeehe-Lafourche Highway prob
lem. l have discussed the matter
with my colleagues Of Southwestern
Louisiana and they suggested that l
introduce the bill at the next regular
session of the House. Should my
proposed bill be passed, system of

permanent for the duration of the

in which each registered man will
be called for service, permitting not
only the men to know, but also the
employers of labor and planters, and
each to be focus of distribution Of
information. Getting this informa-
ton quickly to the young men of
school age will keep some from
abandoning their school work; to
older men it will be the means of
keeping some at work who otherwise
due to unrest and uncertainty and
the expectancy of being Immediately
called would resign good positions.
This ready information will tend to
stabilize industrial and commercial
employment, enabling both employer
and employee to estimate the ap-
proximate length of employment be-
fore being called for service.
