EAT CORN BREAD

In these times when we hear mucn
about ways of conserving national re-
sources in order that we can help our
Allies across the Atlantic, one of the
most effective ways would be the do
ing away of the excessive use OF
wheat bread and the substitution of
corn bread.
Corn bread is wholesome and more
nutritious. Corn meal is made most
ly from the entire grain, while flour
is made from only a small part of
the wheat grain. After we pay high
price for highly bleached flour and
compare it with the same amount OF
pounds in corn meal, there is quite
a difference as to food value in favor
of meal.
White bread is practically unknown
in Europe. By using corn bread more
extensively, we will enable them to
use more flour in the mixture tnel
use for bread. Our corn crop this
wear will be one of the largest WI
have ever produced, and by using thu
grain we will be doing our part L
helm make the burden lighter for thos
who do not have such unlimited quan
titles of grain for food.

FINED FOR MISLEADING AID
Automobile Supply Company Misrep-
resented Value OF Horn.

A decision in favor of honest adver-
tising was recently made in Mime
apolis against the Imperial Automo-
bile Supply Company, which was
fined for the misuse of a claim of
value" or regular price" The firm
had been displaying an automobile
signal horn under the placard, "Regu-
lar Price, s.; Sale Price, $685. Evi-
dence was obtained by the Associated
Advertising Clubs of the World
which showed that the horn regularly
sold for $3.50.
The opinion of the judge was to
the effect that exaggerated value
claims are more than expressions OF
honest opinion of the value of the
goods being advertised; that because
of the advertisers technical knowl
edge of the goods, and because thu
purchaser has no such technica
knowledge, such statements are in
deed statements of fact, and if untrue
the advertiser may be held liable.

FyES OF THE ENEMY

Tho neople of the United states
,ovo been aroused by the news that
cermanv has been continually IN
,ormed Of our official actions in pre-
u;ng for war. Rumors as to the
source of these news "leakages nave
been flying thick. German insurance
aoencies and other business organl-
z.tions have been accused. And the
latest accusation is that official agents
of Austria-Hungary in this country
are responsible for the leakage
tn what source the success ot the
German espionage system in the
limited States must be laid must still
no found. If it is the work of Aus
,r;an and Hungarian agents, our gov
ernment is in a difficult tangle, Tor
the breaking of diplomatic relations
does not prohibit free action OF the
subjects of the nation with which we
have ceased to parley. Hence we
could not, according to internationa
law, intern the very agents who are
"aiding and abetting" our recognized
enemy.
"Alrs fair in love and war" is
saving that the Belgian atrocities
have made most unpopular-ando ou
national honor causes us to abide a
near as possible to the internationa
rules that have developed throug
the past years. But if the eyes OF tn
enemy are fastened upon us throug
the medium of these agents whor
technical rulings have allowed free
dom of action in this country, the law
of self preservation might bid Tn
wardens of our national safety
oyerstep their bounds.

IT'S NOT ALL IN THE SIZE
Many Other Qualities Important in
Selecting Apples for Exhibit

Selecting fruits and vegetables for
exhibition at local, county or state
fairs has in many cases developed into
the habit of selecting the largest spec
linens available. Size is always a de-
sirable characteristic but the use of
over-grown specimens often results
in the sacrifice of other characters
tics which are of equal or greater
value.
In the search for size, good color
and shape, freedom from blemishes
and uniformity in the various speci-
mems are often entirely overlooked.
To show the relative value of these
points. the score card for apples used
by the University of Missouri College
of Agriculture is given: Size, 10
points; form, 10; color, 20; uniform
ity, 20; freedom from blemish, so;
total, 100.
Size-The most acceptable CONNER
cial size is somewhat above the aver
age size for the variety in regions
where it is well grown.
| Form-In all cases this refers tC
the normal type of the variety, region
of growth considered.
Color-In red, blushed or striped
pome fruits, high, clear color is de
sirable. A blush On a green or un
colored variety is considered neither
favorably or otherwise. The highes
color is most acceptable in stone an'
vine fruits.
Uniformity-Thisr refers to uniform
ity in size, form and color. Uncolored
mis-shapen specimens or specimens o
irregular size have no place in
plate of show fruit.
Freedom from Blemish-This mean
freedom from every kind of blemisE
resulting from insect injury, mechan
ical injury. disease or any othe
cause. Score cards for other fruit
and for vegetables will necessaril
differ somewhat from the foregoing
but in every case size will be onl
one of several points emphasizes
5 Therefore, in order to have exhibit
. which will carry away the ribbon
is necessary to select individual spec
linens, well shaped and cOlOred, of
uniform size above medium for Il
variety and free from all signs of IL
: jury or disease.

Preparedness at VI. L.

The University of Missouri has put
in about 1000 tons of coal as a pre-
caution against a possible shortage
of cars, and a consequent sharp ad-
vance in the price of fuel, later in
the year This stroke of foresight, ii
is probably hoped, will enable the
class in practical economics next
winter to view the coal situation, as
it affects the mass of the people, with
greater calmness than if the teachers
and students were uncomfortable
| from lack of heat radiation.-Chris.

The royal road to peace is 10 90
right at home, and Danish sinister in
terests and class privileges from the
commonwealth. Then the inherent
aim of the state will be clearly dis
played, and will operate casually
throughout in the sense of its habitual
objective; and its entire operative
machinery, within and without, will
stand solidly on the purposes which
consecrate its common life. Such an
attitude will not leave us without a
foreign policy, but it will leave US
without what a foreign policy is
often taken to mean. 1t will leave us
without plans for outwitting and cir
cumventing other countries, and Sc

Mr.. BaIfour has said Germany must
ba nowerless or free. This country
should put the stress upon the "free'
rather than upon the "poweriess-
Rv doing so we would disarm the
iunkers and give the German demo-
Gratis a chance to reshape their gov
ernment free inside and outside. Dr.
Michaelis has said in effect that he
agrees with the Reichstag that Ger
MANY must be free, but he also says
that she must not be made poweriess
first. and that checks the democratic
movement effectually-William Ma

NO EXTRA SESSION NOW.
Governor Allays Talk Of Special Leg.
islature for War Purposes.

Temporarily, at least, Governor
Lister has allayed talk of an extra
legislative session for special war
legislation. The governor. in an
swer to letters from mewbers who
have inquired regarding the posi-
bility of being called to gether again
soon has stated, in effect, that he
will not reconvene the legislature
until necessity arises. He has added
that he Is in constant touch with
federal officials and that whenever
occasion arises for legislative action
he will act promptly.
The effect of the governors early
letters is to place the whole respon-
sibility upon the president and his
departments. If their requests for
aid can be met through volunteer or
ganizations and without special aid
from the state through its legisla-
ture, the demands upon Washington
will be met in that manner. II it
becomes necessary to provide new
state machinery, the solons will gath
er at Olympia again. For the pres
ent the OF ganization movements that
are under way are sufficient, in the
governors opinion.
