Washington, Sept. 13-LOndOn and
all England are at the mercy of peri
odic visitations of frightfulness from
German air raiders.
Paris and France are practically i'm
mune. -.
Why
Is it because British airmen are in
ferior and French airmen superior?
Is the kaiser venting his spleen on
the arch enemy" England, and show
ing mercy to France?
Or has the kaiser some great stra-
tegic plan.
No!
Geography and geography alone!
Look at the map.
From the German airplane bases at
Zeebrugge and Ostend on the Belgian
coast to London is 1870 miles, a little
more than an hours flight. From the
German front to Paris is only Is
miles,
But in the flight to London the first
80 miles is over the water, with lit
tie danger Of attack and no danger of
detection except wireless messages
from patrol boats and seaplanes.
Even If the German air raiders are
sighted the second they cross the
coast line, there are only 20 minutes
to mobilize British airplanes to repel
the attack. This would be enough il

Saltwater is the sublimated concep.
ton of the duty and obligation of
such citizen to the United States
and its ideals. Speaking of the stu.
alton created by "Che government of
Sweden permitting itself to become
the lackey of the kaiser" In the Argen-
tine affair, he said, as a citizen OF
Swedish blood:
Whatever kindly feeling we
may have towards the people Of
Sweden, we may say to them that
unless they choose to have gov
eminent, in harmony with the as
pirations of the free peoples of
the earth they must suffer the
consequences of the actions of
their rulers. As to us Americans
of Swedish blood or descent, they
are our friends in peace; aye,
more than friends, for they are
kindred. But in war, if such
should come-which God forbid
. they are enemies.
This is and is not remarkable dec
laration. 1t is what America has the
right to expect and in that respect is
not remarkable; it is what America is
not getting from all Of the sons of its

Do Away With the Useless Family
Dog and Replace it With
Fragrant Mamie

Chicago, Sept. 13.-That the hither
to despised goat may aid materially in
solving problems arising from war
conditions by increasing the milk and
cheese production is the opinion ad
vanced by II. l.. Hollister, publisher
of q farm paper Governor Lowden,
of Illinois, Is quoted as considering
this theory sound.
The keeping of goat or two may
become as popular way of doing our
bit in the world war as planting war
garden, according to Mr.. Hollister,
who says that even the dooryard or
roadside bay be profitably made to
serve as pasture for this animal. II

make you Independent of the milkman
and may enable you to slide safely
through tight times, resulting from
sickness or lack of employment.
dog, Mr.. HOLSTER urges us, and sub
stitute the profitable goat 1t is
hardy, free from disease, adaptable
to all conditions and is easily domes'
ticated.
Some Swiss goats are hOrnless
have amiable dispositions that quail
ify them as pets, and often yield as
much as six quarts of milk a day AT
the present price of cows milk, Mr.
Hollister estimates such a goat would
produce fully $l60 a year.
The goat has a great advantage
over the COW, in that it costs only
about fourth as much to maintain
and gives milk ten months a year
The milk is easily digested and makes
excellent food for the baby. Goats
flesh has the same food value as NUT
ton.
Z, Governor Lowden, of Illinois, has
asked Mr.. Hollister to appoint a com
mission to investigate ways and
means of educating the American
public in the value of the mich goat
Mrs. C. H. Cahill, one of Mr.. Hollis
tiers experts is already on her way tC
Europe to investigate the extensive
goat milk and cheese industry in var
iOus countries there An attempt is
being made to persuade governors
of other states to take action similar
to Governor Lowden's and thus bring
about a concerted campaign to induce
isuburbanites, villagers and small
farmers to take up goat raising ant
to make the mich goat a permanent
American family institution.

DISTRICT BOARD SENDS
OUT SEPARATE NOTICES

A wholesale practice of appealing
from the decision of the district board
to the president is making great
amount of needless work for the
boards clerical staff. In majority
of instances it is believed these ap.
peals are made not with a view to
ultimate discharge or exemption. but
as a means of gaining time The board
announced this morning that the reg
istrant who appeals with this end in
view is doomed to disappointment, as
drafted men who have filed presiden-
tial appeals will be taken in the order
of their liability for service and i'm
pressed for duty. Should the presi-
dent pass favorably upon their ap-
peals they will be discharged or eX-
empted, but when their time comes
to go, pending a decision from the
president, they will be taken. The
fact that they have appealed will
make no change in their status until
the president decides that they should
be discharged or exempted.
1t is not regarded probable that the
president will grant any great number
of exemptions or discharges over the
head of the district board. Even in
cases where the district board has
granted discharges, in cases where it
is shown that the registrant has
minor child, federal agents are re-
opening the cases in instances where
they have found the registrant to have
an income aside from his salary.
The board also wishes it understood
that the denial of discharge on Occu-
pational claims does not necessarily
mean that unfavorable action will be
taken on dependency claims, in cases
where the registrant has applied for
exemption on occupational grounds
over which the board has original ju
risdiction and has at the same time
appealed from decision Of the local
board denying him discharge on de-
tendency claims. In all of these cases
the regulations require two separate
notices. A registrant may be denied
discharge on occrpational grounds,
and still exempted Wcause he has de-
pendents. A registrant who has filed
claims for exemption on industrial
grounds and who also has appealed
from an adverse decision Of the local
board on other grounds is advised not
to regard his case as finally decided
until he has received notice OF action
on both claims.
