Country Butter
Very Scarce and
Becoming Scarcer

Got any country butter?" asked a
mo sir; not bit"
Have some in today"
Cant say. Country butter is hard
to get. and getting scarcer every day
have back orders listed right now
for more than twenty-five pounds, and
can't get the butter to MI them
A conversation with that grocer on
the subject was followed by careful
inquiry among the other stores of the
city and resulted in the discovery that
while the demand for country butter
the receipts for some of the stores
usually handling large amounts having
fallen during the past year so to rs
per cent, and the supply seems to be
continually diminishing, until now the
product is exceedingly hard to get.
Practically every store has it's list OF
back orders for from ten to twenty
five pounds, which have been placed
by it's regular customers and must re-
main untitled. and there are daily in
quiries for the butter for which orders
must be refused because of the in
ability of the storekeeper to supply
them.
Further inquiry among farmers,
dairymen and others brought but little
encouragement that there would be
much If any, improvement in the situa-
ton in the near future. some inclining
to the belief that the supply would
continue to diminish, while others,
more optimistic, thought that condi-
lions might begin to improve with the
advent OF cooler weather
However, what the outcome is to be
is hard to prophesy. but an analysis
Of the situation reveals the following:
The storekeepers are unable to meet
tho demand because the farmers are
not supplying the butter, and some OF
their reasons for not doing so are that
there Is a decrease in the amount of
milk. caused by dry pastures. making

Has Not Been EXEMPTED,

Has Not Been Exempted.
Auditor McLeland says Fiscus Id
mistaken when he says that he has
been exempted. and that he has made
serious mistake by not responding tc
the order Of the local board. Fiscus
was reported by the local board for
mon combative SERVICE" but when the
district board certified him for service
he was certified for the same service
as all the others.
Instructions of the draft are in effect
that President Wilson has arranged
with the provost marshal general that
persons with religious scruples against
military service would be placed in
non combative service, but 1t Is the
opinion of Auditor McLeland that Fis-
Gus has made the very bad mistake of
taking into his own hands the matter
of reporting and being assigned for
non -combative duty. For his failure to
report the board was considering re-
porting him as a Stacker as Nc
Leland seemed to think was its plain
duty.

because the uniforms were borrowed.

This week is apple week" at the
Albion consolidated school, and all OF
the pupils are gathering and bringing
all of the apples they can to the school.
The idea, which was suggested by the
teachers, is to make use OF all the APP
pies, as there is such an unusually
large crop. this year that the farmers
can not use them and very few take
the trouble to market the surplus.
These farmers are gladly donating the
apples, which will be sorted and ship
ped to charitable institutions and to
the soldiers at Camp Dodge. Des

been brought in and the movement has
only begun.

Wasting today that which the

food for our own soldiers who go

nothing less than giving aid to

Save everything from the gar
den, whether or not you see a
need for it now. Can, dry or
preserve everything from garden

she must also furnish food for

T h e Typhoid Menace.

THIS being the season for
4 typhoid fever, a little
information on this dread
ed disease may not be out
of place. Statistics show
that typhoid fever is the
most expensive disease to
which our people are sub
ject, being found almost ex-
clusively in middle aged,
productive persons. Every
case is estimated to cost the
individual $500, if he recov-
ers. If he dies, the loss is
figured at SO, coo, the esti-
mated value of a human
life, in addition to the above
mentioned expense of the
case. And yet this annual
cost is entirely preventable.
We get the germs Of this
disease thru our food or
drink. When water and
milk are pure, and when
due care is exercised in the
preparation of foods, we
avoid the source of infec-
ton. But we have a more
certain method of prevent
ing typhoid fever. A per
son can be vaccinated so
that its development is al
most unknown. In our
army, where formerly it
was such "a scourge, it is
practically unknown, for
each soldier must be vacci-
mated. There is no reason
able comparison between
the cost of a case of typhoid
fever and the cost of vac
cination. 1t shows wisdom
for one TO be vaccinatad be-
fore he has developed the
disease, for after he has
shown symptoms It is then
too late to stop it.

The effect of South American
nations entering the war on the
side of the United States and its
allies is not to be measured by
their military strength, altho
these countries all have great
military potentialities, if the war
continues long enough for them
to be developed. But the main
effect of their breaking off Of
neutrality, and their definite
alignment with the entente al
lies, is of a moral nature, at this
time. Gradually Germany and
those nations which fight with
Germany are drawing the rest
of the world in league against
them, and as the South Ameri-
can nations become a part of this
league of nations against the
central powers, their action JUS
titles the righteousness of the
allied cause. These republics
are being forced into the war,
just as the United States was,
and every time one of them de-
clares its hostility against Ger
many the United States declara-
ton of war is again justified, for
it is again demonstrated that
Germany has reached such a
stage of outlawry upon the seas
that no self.respecting nation can
remain at peace with t h a t
