when he was asked TO name the first
requisite for successful war, replied with
emphasis, Money!"
And the second requisite ~
Money!" "And the third?'
Money"
Every one of us can prove himself a
statesman in decision and action by lend
ing TO our country some portion OF this
paramount requisite. If we have not
the ready cash on hand, we can save the
contribution week by week and do our
bit just as effectively Any bank will
gladly explain how, and handle all the
business details without charge.
And finally, the promise held out by
these Liberty bonds is far happier than
that of any insurance policy, which mere
" undertakes to reimburse you if you
lose. The Liberty bonds are a guarantee
that we shall not lose. You win with
your country, and collect your policy, too.
Insure the United States, and the
United States will insure you!

LIBERTY INSURANCE.
That Is What U. S. Government Bonds
Are Now.

A Liberty bond is actually an insur-
ance policy, issued by the United States
which guarantees return Of the full face
value But instead OF asking YOU to
pay any premium, the United States
pays premiums to You.
What does your bond insure?
Life, liberty and the pursuit Of happi-
ness.
Is anything more vitality important?
What protection would you find in a
policy on your house, your goods, your
health, your old age, ii our country
should suffer the fate Of Belgium, of
Serbia. of Poland. OF RumaHia, OF north
ern France? What would the under
writers have left with which to repay
your individual loss, or what would be
left of you to profit by the payment?
Make no mistake. The peril is real.
Vivid, swift to leap upon us unless our
defense is ready. True, we have power
in abundance, men, talents, resources.
But they cannot be modified for our
protection until we have first modified
our money. That is what the Liberty
bonds will do.

240 pounds butterfat and $500 pounds

He should have at least 10 per cent profit

ORANGE COUNTY FARMERS
ASSOCIATION NOTES.
Notes for Week Ending June 2.

The high cost of living for our dairy
cows is making many wonder If it pays
at the present time to keep our COWS
or as many. The New England Milk
Producers association has asked its
members to send in estimates of cost for
the last two months and they have pub
lished summaries of the statements
made by these dairymen. Our Orange
county conditions are not as bad as in
many cases, as our roughage and labor
costs are lower than in sections nearer
large cities. In former weekly report
! urged farmers of this section to keep
their dairy cows. The following figures
are a revision of those published last
fall as the cost Of producing milk under
our conditions;

CHILDRENS PULPIT


One of the important kings of
Israel was Hezekiah, who, like many
other important men, made some
serious mistakes. Hezekiah became
very sick at one time, but finally re-
covered About the time he fully re-
gained his health the king of Baby
Ion sent messengers with a present
unto him in congratulation of his re-
covery. These messengers seem to
have been spies as well as messeng-
ers of good will. But Hezekiah did
not suspect them. He felt fattered
by their presence and seems to have
lost his better Judgment, for he show
ed these men his whole place and all
his wealth.
True, we cannot always tell when
we meet wolf dressed up in a
sleeps clothes. However, it will
help US many times if we always
keep in mind Jesus words, "Be We
as harmless as doves, but as wise as
serpents." There seems to have
been another thought in Hezekiah's
mind which probably prompted his
foolishness. 1t was his pride. He
wished to "show off" his wealth.
Isaiah, the prophet of God, at once
saw the folly and sin of the kings
action. He could read it al very
plainly. He knew that uncontrolled
pride is the beginning Of a fall,
whether it be in a king or anyone
else. He knew that the sight of
those riches would cause those mes
sengers to covet them. and that when
they told the king of Babylon what
ahey had seen, he, too. would want
them. So he warned Hezekiah and
told him that those very treasures
would some day he carried away to
Babylon. Later history teaches us
the sad fact that Isaiah was correct
in his prophecy.
Hezekiah made the fatal mistake
of showing off" the riches of his
palace to those who proved to be his
enemies. Of course, we are not kings
in the sense that Hezekiah was, and
we do not possess a palace of gold
and silver, ETC., such as he possessed.
Yet every boy ought to be king,
and every girl queen. Our hearts
are our palaces. They are filled not
with gold and silver, but the riches
far more precious; even with ambi
tons, ideals and love. These heart
treasures are our very own. We
must be careful as to whom we al
low to go through the secret cham
bers of our palace, lest he be an
enemy and later rob us of these preci-
Gus treasures. We must be especial
ly careful when messengers come
from foreign king whose name is
Selfishness, or Pride, or Hate.
Notice the selfishness of Hezekiah.
When Isaiah told him that these
-. A. - l. -
after his death, he rejoiced that the
evil was not coming in his day. He
was willing that others might have
trouble if only he could escape it.
Had his heart been right, and not so
selfish, he probably would not have
committed his first mistake and
which led to this misfortune. It is
the part of bravery as well as duty
for US all to bear our full share Of the
trouble which may result from our
mistakes.

When from the city hardware store
Emerged a gentleman who bore;
One hoe,
One spade,
One large rake.
From there our hero promptly went
Into a seed establishment
And for these things his money spent;
One peck of bulbs,
One lot of shrubs,
One quart of vegetable seeds.
He has a garden under way,
And if he's fairly lucky soon,
He'll have-about the last of June
One tomato vine,
One egg plant,
One radish.

How to Make the Crown of An Un-
ruly Hat Fit Your Head

When the crown Of a hat is too
large a comfortable and easy way to
remedy the trouble is to take a piece
of ribbon or silk the proper color and
make strip two inches wide, having
run for ribbon on one edge.
Sew the straight edge of the hat
where the crown lining begins and
run a small rubber in the run and
draw up to desired size. This is
much softer than the ready-made
stiff ones and likewise admits of a
change of size to suit the hair.

Clark p. Reed Obituary

Clark p. Reed was born in Huron
County, Ohio, June z, 1874. On
October 10, 1854 he was married to
Margaret L. Dobie, who died June 8,
1866. One child, Mrs. /. l.. Hubbell,
of this city, was born to this union.

Brown, Mrs. Sumner Wilson and Mrs.
o. N. Wilton of this city. =
After an illness of several months
he passed peacefully from this life
April 81, 1917. His wife and all his
children survive him. Thus closes
the life of a man who had lived his
three score years and ten, years of
activity and interest in the things of
life. His was a jovial, happy type
that makes life brighter even in the
face of adversely, for he believed in
looking at the bright side. He was
a member of the Methodist denomina-
ton for many years but Joined the
Congregational church on coming to
Belding to reside. He was ever a de-
voted husband and father, and the
welfare and best interests of his FAM
lily were ever nearest to his heart.
Music and song were among his chief
pleasures and he loved best Of all to
be surrounded by his family of chill
dren and grandchildren and sing the
good old hymns he loved so well. His
many friends will miss his ever cheer
full greetings and surely the world is
better for such lives as his.
Funeral services were held at the
residence Wednesday morning and
the remains were laid to rest in River
Ridge cemetery.
