LIBERTY BONDS TO
REWARD WORKERS

The Calumet Baking Powder COM
pany of Chicago are staunch support
ers of the policy of literally reward
ing the efforts of their statesmen. Each
year-for years-they have given
valuable prizes TO statesmen securing
the greatest volume of business.
This year they will distribute more
than $4,000 in Liberty Bonds among
their record statesmen.
This is a splendid idea-a plan that
is worthy of the heartiest commenda-
ton and one that should be employed
by other concerns who wish to con-
tribute to the nations fighting fund. .
The giving away of prizes in the
form of Liberty Bonds was prompted
by a spirit of loyalty to employees and
patriotic duty to country. II answered
the call of Observation-Disclosures
depriving statesmen OF awards to
which conscientious selling is en-
titled. 1t will aid the nation in time
of need and at the same time prove

The country has never seen such late
planting as we have this year. Every
thing has been backward. 1t seems
strange to relate but al over this
county there are few farmers still
p]owint with a view-even at this late
date Of planting some kind Of coop.
They are taking long chance but .he
order has gone forth that we shQuld
make the soil produce as much as pos
siblp. In all probability some Of these
late planted crops will not mature, hut
they will nevertheless be valuable for
roughage and will help to add to the
weight Of beef or a mutton, and 1t
must not be. forgotten that the worll
needs meat as we'll as grain.

WELFARE WEEK
TO BE

Muscatine, April 7.-After two years
OF service during which its circle of en-
deavor has expanded steadily until at
the present time nearly $50 families are
registered on Its books, the Muscatine
Welfare association will hold a weeks
campaign to more thoroughly popu-
larize the organization and bring all
Muscatine into closer touch with its
work, its aims and its results, the cam
paign to begin April IS and to con-
tinue for seven days.
This week will be known a. We'll
fare Week. Various ways and means
will be used to acquaint the people
OF Muscatine with the different phases
Of the work OF the organization.
Brief talks will be made before lodges
and social organization, before church
congregations and Sunday schools by
the two secretaries, Miss Opal thinner
man and Miss Hettie Seifert, and by
members Of the board Of the associa-
ton. In these talks the work of the
organization and some Of its &C
complishments will be briefly reviewed
and Its scope outlined. The success
which the Welfare association a at
tained has passed the expectation Of
it's most enthusiastic advocates, but
so quietly and so unobstrustvely has It
worked that many people are unaware
of much Of what it is accomplishing.
To carry this knowledge to the peo-
pie of Muscatine to win the active
and understanding support as well as
the passive sympathy Of h local
public Is the object Of Welfare Week.

tempt to provoke Austro-German dis
sensions over the submarine al He
calls the presidents message. among
other things, hideously hypocritical,
unprincipled and untruthful. People
like WILSON, he says. ''can only be
converted by sheer force
Major Moraht is uncertain as to
whether Americas entrance into the
"a will prolong the struggle but he
expresses the hope that the German
navy will inflict all possible damage
on America and thus spoil the game
of the American fi%nanciers."
He concludes that the thing most de-
sirable now is that Germany should re-
main united.
The Koelnische Zeitung, after a re-
sumo Of the war operations, con-
cludes:
America, paradoxical though it may
seem, has been hitherto a more dan
gerous adversary than, say Italy, be-
cause of her munition supplies to the
