Florida Grower recently.)
1.-The interest in by-products has
grown immensely in .iorida IN the
past two years, but it still seems to
be local and experimental. There are
numerous promising products to be
found in the State-fruit juices, 5el-
lies, etc., most of them are made in
small way and by concerns which
apparently have not the capital or
the business experience to exploit
them in the national market. The
growth of prohibition and the de-
lnand for soft drinks seems to offer
good opportunity for the exrloita-
ton Of citrus fruit juices and Flor
ida by-products generally. but prob
ably little progress will be made un
jril larger business interests. with sue-
.ficient capital and marketing expert
.ence to advertise and manufacture
these by-products on large scale
vii, develope them in the grocery
trade, and by intensive sales meth
ods and advertising make them
known to the consumer.
This is Just exactly what we have
been contending for long time.
that It takes money and lots of it to

enough to attract the dealers and
CONSUMERS to our product. This is
what Lakeland wants. Don't let

Opportunity away from Lakeland.

BUILD THE SHIPS

There is no pressing duty laid upon the Amer
lean people at this particular juncture of the great
world conflict than the building of ships. They are
needed to transport men, food and munitions to
the front. They needed not only for this country
but for the allies WELL 1t is the crying need of the
hour That crowning infamy Of German atrocities the
U-boat, be completely smothered and the land
troops must be given the punch that only large
army plenty guns and ammunition and plenty of food
and clothing give
Therefore any strike in the shipyards, the steel
mills, the and metal Mines lumber camps the
other ceners of industry that play important parts in
the building of ships must be looked moves in
the interest of Germany. This home to here

pigs Is Pigs"

Ellis Butler once wrote an amusing
book entitled pigs Is Pigs" Now Mr.
Hoover tells us they are more than
that; that they will, in fact, win the
war. He points out that the men in
the trenches must have food which is
rich in the carbons, meaning pork
that there must be animal fats for use
an the manufacture of munitions and
soaps, meaning lard and the like.
Consequently the porSer is coming
into notice, and Hoover advocates a
keep-a-pig movement. In classic days
it was the cackling of a flock of geese
that saved Rome; who can tell that
drove of squealing hogs will not save
the allies.-Nampa Leader-Herald.

Every sacrifice made at home, every effort put forth
helps the boys who making the real fight at the
front 1t adds to their punch. 1t helps them on to
victory 1t brings the end the just that much
closer
This will end until German autocarcy is
completely crushed and the that is done the
better it will be the world including Germany. And
the smallest sacrifice made in the home the small

count in final outcome is the combined effort
of the whole American people compounded into one
drive that will end the and bring per-

Editor of the Star-Mirror: In these
war, the American people are brought
up to the highest pitch of patiotism
and loyalty to the government of the
United States and to the flag, this
symbol of the sovernity of this the
greatest republic the world has ever
known. Anything that tends to create
patriotism and love of country and
flag is of deep interest to all the peo-
pie. Perhaps one of the greatest les
sons of patriotism ever inaugerated
since the establishment of Memorial
or decoration Day by General A.
Logan while commander in chief of
the G. A. R. in 1868, is the observance
of Flag Day, June IA. l assume that
the American people in general do not
observance. l am enclosing a letter
from Robert G. Jones, secretary of
San Diego Lodge, No. 1853, B. P. o. E.,
which will 1 believe settle this mat
ter
The public perhaps is learning that
the Protective and Benevolent Order
of Elks is now one of the most patriot
ic orders in America today, equally
so with the G. A. r. When it is known
that no one but loyal American cit
izen can be admitted into the order.
No lodge OF Elks can be opened with
out the American flag being draped
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1917-11-20

upon the altar. And when an Elk is
scented with small silk American
flag to remind him of his duty to his
country. One can readily see that
the order stands for patriotism. Now
that the order has inaugerated a GUS
tom of celebrating flag day, it stands
along with the g. A. R., which order
established Memorial Day.
Memorial and Flag Day will, with
the 18th of July, hereafter be our great
patriotic holidays and of SO much in
terest to the people that they should
know who introduced the custom. AS
proof of their loyalty the grand lodge
of Elks have purchased $1,00O,000
worth of Liberty Bonds, and has dom
ated 100000 to the Red Cross. While
Flag Day is purely patriotic, Memoir
ial Day is a day of solemnity, when
all sports and games are out of order.
Another difference is that Flag Day
will always be conducted by the Elks,
while Memorial Day will soon pass to
other hands, when the old veterans of
81 and '65 will have passed away.
Both days will be observed and by all
the people just as is the 4th of July.
I am writing this that the public
may know who introduced this observ-
ance
