JUNK ON THE FARM.

Uncle Sam thinks he has discover
Cd veritable treasure trove in the
junk on American farms.
lie argues this way: There are
600, 900 farms in the United States.
Most Of them have a barn, a stable,
chicken coop, and other outbuild-
ines. 1t may come in handy is the
watchword on most farms, and
everything in the line Of old metal is
tossed into one Of these buildings to
acclmuIate rust. Therefore the g.
0e0.o0O farms should yield tremend-
Gus quantity Of junk, much OF 1t
worthless; but much Of it Of value as
old metal"
The New York Sun has the follow
Ing comment on this subject:

Takes Steps to
Limit Luxury
Issues Order to Retain Roll
ing Stock for Needs
of War

WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-The gov
ernment tonight took steps to restrict
enterprises not essential to conduct Of
the war.
1t issued an order fo-bidding use OF
open-top freight cars on and after NO
vember for TRANSPORTATION of mate
rails for roads and highways, theatre
construction and manufacture Of pl cas-
ure vehicles. furniture and musical IN
The order was issued by Robert s.
Lovett, priority director Of the War
Industries Board, and is expected to
provide early relief for the car short
age. which has affected the transporta-
tion of Coal, coke, ore, limestone,
sugar beets, sugar cane, sorghum cane
and raw materials for use in the metal,
sugar and fertilizer industries and
other commodities necessary to the ma
tional defence and security"
Heretofore, said Judge Lovett's or
der, the transportation of these ma
terials has been hampered by insist
ence of manufacturers on cars for nom
essentials.
Articles affected by the order fol-
low:
Materials and supplies, other than
coal for the construction, maintenance,
or repair of public or private high
ways, roadways, streets or sidewalks
materials and supplies. other than
coal, for the construction, maintenance
or repair of theatres or other buildings
or structures to be used for amuse-
ment purposes.
Materials and supplies, other than
coal, for the manufacture Of pleasure
vehicles, furniture or musical instru-
ments.
Passenger vehicles, furniture and
musical instruments"
The most drastic effect of the order
probably will be TO stop many public
road and street building enterprises,
for which crushed stone, cement and
asphalt materials have been transport
ed largely in open cars. Automobile
manufacturers also will feel the effect
Of the government action to some ex-
tent, since open top cars have been
used for carrying metal products. The
scarcity Of box cars within the last two
years, however, has led TO increasing
use Of open top cars for many ma
terials.

Fifth Avenue, the route Of numerous
parades Of late, saw one more ideal go
marching by yesterday. More than
10000 women and men swung past in
column of platoons for two hours and
a half to show their faith in the wom-
an suffrage movement. Estimates OF
the crowd that clustered and cheered
along the line Of march ran into the
hundreds of thousands.
Skirted subway guards and radio op-
orators were in the column with waist
makers, fur workers, educators, ste
nographers, Red Cross workers, Lib
erty bond saleswomen, necktic makers,
society women, dressmakers, milliners,
bookkeepers and a host of others. Sol
diers and sailors were among the male
marchers; one of the former wore the
double bars of captain.
1000 Carry Service Flags
Cheering and handclapping that rip
pied along Fifth Avenue from Washing
ton Square, whence the parade started,
to Seventy second Street, where it dis
banded, greeted the section whose
standard explained that it was COM
posed of the mothers, wives and sisters
of soldiers and sailors. There were
nearly a thousand of them, old and
ycung, and each carried service flag
with one. two or three stars. A dozen
women supported horizontally the huge
service flag whose stars betokened their
aggregate sacrifice to their country.
Occasionally the din Of applause was
pierced during the latter part OF the
afternoon by newsboy's shrill yells:
american troops in the trenches!
American troops under fire! II here
and there woman in the ranks faltered
for an instant at the raucous yell which
raised phantom casualty lists where the

Fifth Avenue was thronged. Below
Madison Square. where the old charac-

Every quick lunch room was deserted
by mattresses, cooks and proprietor,
who perched themselves on chairs TO
get a better view. The towering loft
and wholesale buildings offered grand
stand seats TO thousands upon thou
sands of interested spectators, and
women risked their necks and skirts
on narrow, lofty copings that had
escaped the most daring cleaners
