These are days cf great srnsrssncy mot be expected under ordinary cfrL stances. 1 believe that it Nou1I be c wise and advantageous thing Tor all concerned if an Arrangement were put vent in the future fiss sale Of liquor or beer to any man in uniform and keep him out of the saloons sntireiy.
 Az believe that ycu too viii ap- p1ishing such an arrangement, rather than take any proceedings to attempt to force this provision through by the city or osh:r the: Eovernins as,thofaty: ,,, ! will not join with the other dealers of the city in voluntarily putting this regulation Into effect The sight of young men in uniform and under reassurfng one for our citizens. and I am certain that the community at large will heartily endorss any action vent the possibility of-it in the fu-. ture.
 While will much prefer voluntary action upon the part of the dealers, and do not send this letter in any gestlon, might say that I believe that in the. near future, if some ac- ton is not taken voluntarily. the to bring pressure to bear to bring about this result. As you doubtless know, the statute of the state win en- able the court of common council to 10 o'clock p. m. on every business day, instead of II o'clock as at present. Furthermore if the situation fs not met voluntarily by the dealers, be- lieve that such statute as is being urged may be passed by the iegisia- ture to provide for. the closing. of the saloons entirely during the period of the war by the governor. It is in view of these facts too that I trust you will see the wisdom of comply ing voluntarily with the suggestions which is made in this letter.

 Man Who Passed it Along.

In a letter to Congressman w. E. Cox, a bitter enemy of the conscrip- ton bill, William Allen Butler, presi- dent of the New York Lawyers club, rebukes the congressman for his stand and at the same time gives hirn lesson in patriotism The letter Is in reply to a letter which Congressman Cox sent to MT.

 q have your letter urging me to sup port compulsory draft conscriptfon. Won't you be kind enough to tell me why it is that you have not enlisted, 1 or your boys enlisted, or at least why your wife's relatives have not enlisted? :?
 Or why have not your fellow lawyers enlisted, or their sons. or if you have enlisted. or any of your people, or you know of any of your fellow lawyers or their boys who have enlisted, won't you
 kindly give me the date of their enlist
 ment together with their names and addresses? I await Your reply with great deal of anxiety.
 MT. Butler informed Cox that he had
 not enlisted because, having seen ser vice in 1861, he was a trif1e beyond the enlistment age. He further informed Cox that his son, pr. Charles T.. Butler, has just spent seven months with the. Red Cross in France; that another son

Tn these days of increases in the price of everything. it is gratifying to note that the genuine Foley's Hon ey and Tar sells at the same price aa in previous years. This reliable fam fly medicine is considered as necessary as food or clothing by thousands of persons. When one estimates tho great loss to the family income sick ness can cause, it is almost impos- sible to compute the true worth Of this splendid household remedy.

WOOL SHORTAGE
 A FACT

The United States, for the first time in history, is restrict ed in its wool supplies, to it's own clip and small quantities from South America, together with a very uncertain mini mum allowance from Great Britain, which country has communicated all wool grown in the British Empire for gov ernnent uses. As our country grows 25% of the wool it uses, a most serious condition faces manufacturers, mer- chants and .eonsumers. The surplus wool is being rapidly consumed and prices must continue very high until months after the war closes.
 We knew the condition of the wool market and we had the foresight to order our merchandise about a year ago when the prices were at their lowest.
 Our Suits for SIS. and S25. for spring are the same quail ity, same dyes as last spring, are all wool and not one cent advanced in prices from last year.

Now that the manufacture Of
whiskey has been stopped, at least for
the remaining period Of the war, there
will be tested out the argument that
hassfrequently been made by those
faVoring the saloon, namely, that the
only practical way to stop the sale of
liquor and thus promote the temper
ance cause, is to prohibit the manu-
facture Of liquor. AS long as liquor is
made, it will be sold and drank, it has
been argued. After the present stock
of liquor on hand in bonded ware
houses and in saloons has been ex-
hausted, which would require about a
year and a half under normal consump-
ton, then the whole nation will be
forced onto the dry wagon, because no
whiskey is to be had. But even before
the supply Of whiskey is exhausted,
the government may pass national
prohibition amendment, that will seal
the doom Of John Barleycorn, as far as
this country is concerned, for all time
to come. IL this war results in banish-
ing the saloon and doing away entirely
with the use Of distilled liquor as q
beverage, then it has not been waged
In vain.

Pack Eggs For Winter.

Now is the time to pack eggs for win.
ter. y. 81. Brown, the station poultry
man in his Extension Bulletin No. 81.
has the following to say on the sub,
ject:
I'VE have tried a number Of different
methods of packing eggs, and SO far
have found nothing which gives such
good results as water glass. The FOL
lowing different methods were tried: S
l. a mixture Of one part of water
glass and twenty parts of water; gave
good results where the eggs were not
kept id the solution more than six
months. After that they were some
what lacking in flavor. 5s'
2. A mixture Of one part water glass
and twelve parts water gave excellent
results; even with eggs kept Is months.
8. We have had very god results
from packing eggs in dry salt. Great
care should be taken to cover them
well. These were all good after being
packed for seven months, though they
had separated considerably
81. Two pounds. Of fresh lime were
Stacked in pail, and a pint of salt was
added. After mixing, the contents OF
the pail were put into tub containing
four gallons Of water. This was.MeH
stirred and left to settle Then it was
stirred q second time and again left ,to
settle. After that the clear liquid was
poured over the eggs in tub. The
eggs in this solution kept very well
but were not so good in flavor and in
cooking quality as those in the solution
of one part water glass and twelve
parts of water. 81
4 solution of one part of water glass
to ten Of water gave the best results.
We find that to get the very best re:
suits with packed eggs, they must be
from birds having no males running
with them. It is also very Important
especially with the water glass solu.
tion, to have the eggs stored in cool
cellar. Earthenware Jars make the
best receptacles for packing the eggs
although good, clean butter kegs OF
lard pals, if not made Of spruce wood
give good satisfactio ion . s.

COUNTY AGENTS OFFICE n
is AN AGRICULTURAL
CLEARING HOUSE

tf +
One Of the principal reasons adj
.vanced for the employment of county
agent and the estab lishment2 OF d coun-
ty farm bureau association is to create
a headquarters for local agricultural
business. AT such headquarters all
rural organizations of the county, lie
they desire, may establish their head
quarters with some authorized person
in charge. Here they may establish
relations with one another. Here they
may exchange the benefits Of work and
experience.
A very practical illustration of the
value Of such q headquarters is fur
nished IN report recently made by

WATCH FOR INSECT
ENEMIES OF CROPS.


The Minnesota College of Agricul-
ture is calling on farmers of Minnesota
to report evidences of insect injuries to
crops Of any sort. The plan is to pre-
vent future ravages by the various in
sect pests.
Very often the attack on insects
must begin in the fall and reports
made at this time will enable the ento-
mologists Of the College Of ~Agrcul-
ture to send warnings and instructions
as to procedure from the Twin Cities. i
Maximum yields Of grain must be
produced for several years to come.
To obtain such yields the ravages Of
the Hessian fly, the chinch bug, the
army worm, cut worms, grasshoppers,
white grubs, bill bugs, corn rootaphis,
and wireworms must be prevented.
