The Patriotism of the American Press

Inc Patriotism of the American Prcss
 The service rendered to the Govern ment of the United States in the sale of the Liberty Loan Bonds of 1917 by the press of the country is record evi- dence of the generous patriotism of the newspaper men of America. It is re- corded in the pages of thousands of American newspapers, many of them printed in foreign languages, from the largest daily to the smallest country weekly. The newspapers of the coun- try 'came across" with liberal dona- tions of space in news, editorial, and advertising columns. te.
 Newspaper men have observed with deep and peculiar pleasure the whole hearted activity of the men of their fraternity in the country in promoting the sale of the Liberty Loan Bonds. The influence and assistance of all pub lications in making the loan a success are simply incalculable. Their efforts greatly contributed to making it a double success in that it was not only largely oversubscribed but the Liberty Loan Bonds were placed in every com munity in the United States, in cities and in remote country districts, in min ing towns and manufacturing centers, among farmers and country merchants as well as city bankers and large com mercial and manufacturing houses.
 It was great educational campaign. Readers of their county paper in their country homes, and new American citi- zens from papers printed in their old language, and others just learning our language, who in evening spelled out the news in the great daily papers, were informed of the purposes and ob- jects of the Liberty Loan and instruct 
 ed in the nature, value, and terms of Government bonds, especially the Lib erty Loan Bonds of 1917. The whole Nation has made long stride forward in financial education through the Lib erty Loan campaign of 1917 as conduct ed through the press of the country.
 The country press which without compensation gave literally of it's limited space is equally deserving of praise with the larger papers. In their respective spheres all classes of pub lcations in the country covered their field thoroughly and well. The press of America can look back on the work it performed for the Liberty Loan as great public service, ably, thoroughly, and unselfishly performed

Pages Weekly Letter

The peach season is now opening up, and the importance of canning and dry ing fruit must not be overlooked. If you haven't home canning outfit, try aud get one, even if you have to make it yourself, which is not hard to do. All the surplus fruit and vegetables should be canned or dried this year to ensure food for winter use. Unfortu- nately, the people do not seem to fully realize that we are in war, and what it means to us. Of course, they will realize it Tn less than year, when the hardships of war come to us, but in the meantime many opportunities will pass us unheeded Most likely the Government will take over the wheat crop, and then we will get flour only by apportionment.
 Our meat supply is getting low, and will be lower and the price higher. Keep the hogs. Milk and butter, chickens. ducks, geese, turkeys, sweet potatoes, turnips, onions, canned goods and dried fruits will play an important part in our food supply next year, and next year will soon be here. We must produce and keep these supplies if we would have them. To buy some of these things may be impossible before this time next year. We must not de- pend upon others, but upon ourselves. Keep the milk COWS, the hens and the brood sows. Make plenty of hay. Do not neglect the pea crop. but save and pick them all Prepare for winter oats and wheat crop. Arkansas must make her own wheat next year. Be- gin your arrangements now Push your corn crop and get the best you can out of it. Cultivate it as long as you can without damaging it. It will pay you. Let's not be deceived by the apparent high price of cotton. Re- member that we can't eat cotton. High-prieed cotton will do us no good if we have to spend all we get for it:.for food stuff for our stock. By all means plant plenty of late potatoes. They will keep and will be a good price.

Good Times Coming

"This is not only not time to allow any slowing up of business, but 1t IS time when every sensible process of stimulation should be used. Wood row Wilson.
 The man who talks pessimisticaIly is a common nuisance in ordinary times; just now he is something worse. Be- sides being a drag on the community in which he lives, he is a drag upon the nation at large, stain upon the flag. It is disloyal and unpatriotic to talk hard times when there are no hard times, and particularly so just now, when it is of the utmost importance that the business and commercial life of the nation proceed just as nearly normal as possible. Do your bit along this line. Talk, act and believe good times, for that is what is ahead for this country. Joplin Globe.
