Editor Review:
At luncheon Of business men in
Minneapolis, about a. year ago. an
efficiency expert who was addressing
the gathering, said that il the block
where he lived twelve families each
morning bought one quart Of milk:
To deliver those quarts of milk. .
be said, sit requires twelve men and
twelve teams, when the work could
just as well be done by one man and
one team
According to the speaker there was
q waste of the time, energy and expense
of eleven men and eleven teams, the
extra cost of which. comes directly
out Of the consumer. Besides this
it added just that much to the dealer
in the conduct of his business.
This of course was only given as
an illustration, but it was good one
and applies with equal force to all
lines of business where free delivery
service is maintained. There are many
towns in this state where this system
has been adopted and giving excell-
ent satisfaction, both to the merchants
and to the consumers. Only one
fifth the number of teams and men
are employed in the work, and
the deliveries are more promptly made
making it better for all concerned.
In every city or village where the CO
operative delivery system has been
adopted 1t IS working out to perfec-

Trscky Old Twam Cities

There is a suspicion lurking around
this great state of Minnesota that
St. Paul and Minneapolis have ''put
one over" on the balance of the state
in the matter of pair of loyalty meet
ings. The average Minnesota man is
loyal to his country, without being
obliged to shout the fact from the
housetops. This is made manifest by
the recent fact that both of the Liberty
Bond loans floated within the past
two months were over-suscribed; the
large amount of money donated and
ROY being donated to the Red .Cros S,
the Y. M. C. A., the Knights of Col
umbus; the manner in which the food
control mandates are oh: er ed, and
il many ether ways. -
But business hasn't been quite good
enough with the. T win City. hotels and
ether business places to suit the owners
lately; the people from the state-at-
large have been staying at home and
attending to business, donating money
to patriotic causes etc, and something
had to be done to replenish the depleted
exchequs. =.
It appeared to the wise boys of the
Twin Cities that nothing could be work.
ed more successfully than a state
wide loyalty meeting. Arrangements
were accordingly made and the press
agents got busy, the Twin City news
papers also doing their '.bit" to boost
the enterprise. It was made to ap-
pear that any town not sending a
good-sized delegation would be set
down and branded as 'sdisloyal''.
Plans were made for county conven-
tions all over the state at which de-
lesates were to be selected for the 10y
atty meeting, it being expected that
each delegate would carry with him
a good fat roll. All because MINI
eapolis and st. Paul needed the money.
The program went thru without
a hitch. The loyalty meeting was
held last Friday and Saturday; Mimi
eapo!is and St. Paul got the crowd
and-the money.
There were a good many thousands
Of dollars spent on the proposition.
There is no objection to any city
having loyalty meetings as often as
the people may wish but if one will
take the time and trouble to figure out

Most of the cases of illness go no further, |
but in case there are serious indications
the sick are taken to the base hospital
Were the Red Cross nurses and large
corps Of phi Jsicians are on duty. There
are ten cases of insanity of various
degrees in the insane ward of the base
hospital. OF the $4,000 men at. the
camp, says Lieutenant Colonel Shocks
report, there are but 681 cases of sick
ness. There have been no deaths
during the last two weeks, which he
says is remarkable. There are only
tWenty-six pneumonia cases and the
venereal disease rate is lower here
than at any other cantonment.. He
reports one case of spinal meningitis.
Lieutenant Colonel Shook considers
this one Of the best five health camps

Another List Of Men for the South
land.
An order has been received at Camp
Dodge for 5000 men for the army camp
at Little Rock, Ark, before the end of
November. In the past men hav. been
transferred from the depot brigade and
regimental organizations, but with these
a ready depleted officers see the possibili-
ty of the new list being taken from large
number Of the regiments. Over 400
men arrived this week from New York
and New Jersey to join the signal corps.
Many of them are expert telegraph
operators Others are well versed in
telephone equipment and management.
The government pormises a drop in
the price of canned goods. That's fine,
and should be followed by the placing
of prohibitive prices on canned speeches.

Just then they came to close quarters.

Another cause for much worry
among the major leaguew club owners
LIS the war tax on railroad fares, which
will cut into their profits next season.
The mileage of the big league clubs
reaches unusually high figures each
year, and the amount of the war tax
on the railroad tickets is going to be
a surprisingly expensive item. This
added expense will be one of the
strongest arguments toward q re-
trenchment policy when the major
leagues convene next month.
