The Red Cross And Cigarettes.
(By Rev. Thomas Mowbray.)

by Rev. Thomas Mowbray)
We learn from secular papers that
millions of cigarettes are being for
warded to our soldier boys in France.
1t is not consistent to thwart the
plans of the United States govern
ment. Very many Of the young men
conscripted for service have been re-
ieoted by army surgeons and physi-
clans because of weak hearts and ex-
treme nervousness brought about by
being addicted to the cigarette habit.
The general plan is that our soldier
boys so far from home ought to hive
some comforts. By the same argu-
merit we had better forward them a
few thousand boxes of poisoned can
dy The Acts of the Apostles sheds
light upon this zeal for the comfort
Of our soldier boys. Acts 1925,
"Sirs, We know that by this craft we
have our wealth." Investigate the re-
suits of artillery practice in some of
our camps, and you will find that
many of the secord-class gunners who
ought to be first is due to the cigar
cite, habit. If, after such Informal
ton, large quantities continue to be
shipped to our soldier boys, the only
Interpretation we can put on such ne
farious traffic is that it is pro-Ger-
man, for that which inrapacitates our
soldiers under fire on the battlefield
is so much gain for the enemy.

Many ways of using corn as hui
man food are given in Farmers Bull
letin 565, U. S. Department of Agri-
culture, and perhaps many of the
ways mother used to use it and which
Wlte has forgotten, are described in
this free bulletin. The making of
scrapple is discussed, and this is a
valuable method Of disposing Of many
parts Of the hog at butchering time.
For those who have made study
of the nutritive values of foods, the
average composition Of corn refined
and dried for grinding is given as
follows: Water, 1913 per cent; pro-
TEN, which is Of special interest be-
cause it is the nutrient which builds
and repairs the tissues of the body,
~ per cent; fat, 4,3 per cent; starch
and sugar, which with fat are the
chief sources Of energy, TIT percent;
crude fiber, IL percent; and mineral
matter, l.5 percent. The value to the
body as a source Of energy is 1,795
calorics per pound.
A comparison Of the composition
Of corn and other cereal grains
wheat rice, oats, rye, barley-and buck
whcat-shOws that these cereals diff
fer little among themselves in com
position-so little, in fact that ex-
cept where great eXactness il sought
they may be considered as a group
Of interchangeable foods so far as
their nutritive value is concerned.
The value Of corn as a source Of ener-
gy to the body is the highest of all
these cereals.

Growing Potatoes Without Potash.

Since the pricesof potash in com-
nercial fertilizers has reached an alb
formally high figure, if it can be OBJ
tanned at all, much interest is taken
in the possibility of continued pro,
duction of Irish potatoes on land
without the addition of some potash
to the soil. Some crops were grown
this year without the use of potash,
hut most of them were on land that
had been heavily supplied with this
clement in previous years. Just how
long profitable production can be con-
tinued is not known, says the Uni
versity of Florida experiment station.
Some work to determine this fact
has been done by the Maine station.

WAR SEEMS CERTAIN

Recognizing the urgent necessity
of congressional cooperation in the
present acute crisis in our National
affairs and of a positive and prompt
declaration of war with Germany, to
be prosecuted with the determine
ton to show the imperial govern
ment that though we have been slow
to anger under the most provocative
insults that there is a point beyond
which the ruthless Kaiser cannot go
and not be held to the strictest &C
count, the president has reconsidered
his call for the converting of Congress
April 16 and issued another, fixing
the date April 2. With studied disre-
gard of every right of this country,
the Kaiser has with devilish design
caused everything that the president
informed him would be regarded as
"overt," to be done and there seems
nothing left but fight to the finish
with friend, who seems determined
to draw us into war. which we have
used every effort to avoid. The issue
has been forced upon us by a mad
dened despot, who is turnings the
whole world against him and prepar-
ing for the inevitable and deserved
that is bound to be his

The bill reduces the state rate of
taxation to 40 cents and exempts
farm implements, farm machinery,
products in course of manufacture
and their raw material, money in
hand, notes, bonds, accounts and
other credits from local taxation. The
bill is about as the commission re-
ported and is based on the rather err
roneous belief that with the rate re-
duced people will be more honest in
giving in their property for taxation.
The Fashion Art League, which
has just held a meeting in Chicago
decreed that "women walking skirts
will be shorter than before. So will
evening gowns, in way. That is,
they will be longer below but shorter
above" It is pleasant to reflect that
even with war hanging over the
country and the high cost of living
putting many of us on the blink,
there yet may always be discerned a
silver lining to the cloud and some
thing good to look forward to.
