We have heretofore hesitated to adj
wise town people to engage in gar
dcnlng for the reason that it has been
but poor investment in time and
money, and the farmer has been able
to garden at a lower cost and. in
justice to him, we have made it n
rule to purchase vegetables from him.
But this season is different The tre
mendous advances in price on all that
enters into the food problem makes it
urgent that we use every effort to
meet the condition. A good garden
will go far to solving the high cost
of living. And, incidentally, it will
keep down the weeds, which so often
overrun the town mans premises Get
busy and go to gardening in earnest
and you will not regret it. And, the
farmers, if they will put in a few
extra rows to help supply the de-
mand that the town people will make,
will help his ncighhors and himself al
the same time.

WHAT ABOUT THIS?

The public has heard so much upon
the subject of the high cost of living
that any word upon the subject now
falls upon deaf ears. We nave been
hearing constantly the cry and little
attention has been paid the warning.
We are now going to feel the situation
in its full force. One of Unions lead
ing merchants, Mr. w. p. Terrell, has
given US the following items and the
price before and after the coming of
these abnormal times:

CRY OF THE GRIEF STRICKEN

The average American vitizen will
feel a deep sympathy for Austin Y.
Hoy, whose mother and sister. of Chi
cago, periShed when the Cunard liner
iacOnia was torpcdocd without warn
ing by a German submarine. and will
be much impressed by the sentiments
expressed i'm sensational cablcUram
to President Wilson. 81 call upon my
government" he said, among Other
| things, "to preserve its citizens self
! respect, "a we'll as its own, and save
others Of my countrymcn from such
deep grief Is | now feel. | am of mil
itary age and able to fight. If my
country can use me against these hru-
tai assassins | am at its call. If il
stultitieS my manhood and my nations
by remaining passive under outrage, |
shall seek a mans chance under an
other flag"
One has only to read between the
lines to realize the terrible impulse
which prompted such utterances
They are the sentiments of man out
ragged, and overwhelmed with a terri
bic grief; the words of one who will
descend to his grave heaping eternal
anathema upon the name of Germany
and all things German. Need we Won
der that as he mentally contemplates
the picture of the lifeless bodies of
his mother and sister tossed here and
there by merciless waves, he feels i'm
PEELED to turn to that one great source
of protection TO which ,'he.-. had boon
taught ever to look k-HIS OWN
COUNTRY? But even in the extrem-
lty of such grief as this. when APP
parently reason and judgment are
swept aside by mad passion, he does
not call for war. He only asks that
tins government preserve its own self
respect and self respect of its citi-
Zens, and save others of his country
men from the fate of his mother and
sister.
And this is what President Wilson
is really asking of the cowardly souls
in congress who seek now to cmbar-
rasS the chief executive by hesitating
to give him full authority to take such
steps as would safeguard American
rights and protect American lives
upon the high seas. We hold that any
American vessel leaving port. mer-
chant or otherwise, has the right to
defend itself against murder and
piracy. This right is almost as old "a
civilization itself. To g&insay this
claim would be tantamount to declar-
IN" that a man attacked by a footpad
should take no measures to protect
himself.
Returning to the Hoy cablcgram, it
may be said that mingled with the
deep sympathy which all must feel
for this man in the tragic deaths of
his mother and sister will be a feel
in" of deep regret that the two wo-
men who pcrishcd did not see the
wisdom of taking passage on an Amer
lean liner. We can only respeat that
the American citizen who travels on a
British liner, especially when the lat
ter carries contraband of war, virtual
~ invites death. Shcville Citizen.
