DO NOT BUTCHER THE
YOUNG FEMALE STOCK
Poor Practice, in Spite Of the Present
High Price,

The prices obtainable for cattle and
hogs at the present time offer a great
temptation to sell, even the female
stock, that is hard to overcome. And
yet il we give a little thought to the
future. ones better judgment would
certainly suggest the retention of a
sufficient number of the younger fe-
male animals to maintain the supply
and meet the demand for next year
at least, II not for longer.
The writer is led to make this sug-
gestion from information received
that great numbers of cattle and hogs
are being sent out Of the state. IRE
spective Of sex, due no doubt to the
profitable prices that can at present
be had for them. There is an old
saying that money counts" but how
long Is 1t going to count" If our
stockmen dispose of their female
foundation and afterwards find out
when too late that they have deprived
themselves Of the necessary females
to breed from and are short of stock
to sell another year when prices will
be just as high. IL not higher?
II this practice is persisted in II is
going to result in shortage of meat
animals when they may be needed
even more than at the present time.
In other words, 1t Is not going to con-
serve the meat supply nor is it ulti-
mately going to be the most profit
able TO our stock owners.
II may be all right to get rid Of a
reasonable number of the old and un-
profitable female stuff, but there
should be rigid line drawn at the
younger female stock II we hope to
maintain and increase the supply and
meet the future demands for meat
animals which seems not onIy the
common sense proposition. but a pa
triotic and profitable one.-W. II.

SAVE FEED BY
USING THE SILO

The silo offers the best means Of
conserving the farm feed supply. II
enables tho farmer to save the feed
stuffs for the future use of his farm
animals in much the same manner
that the canning machine enables the
fruits for the future use of the fam
lily. The present and prospective high
prices and the growing demand for
farm products of all kinds make Il at
once to the profit and the duty Of
farmers to Increase in every way the
efficiency OF their operations. To the
dairy farmer, at least, the silo is es-
sential to efficiency. It's advantages
are too numerous to fully crume~ate
here. Suffice II TO say that expert
ments have proved that silage will
greatly reduce the cost of feed for
dairy COWS and increase the milk pro.
duction. II Is palatable feed, keeps
the stock in thrifty condition, and
the young stock growing all winter.
II is more conveniently fed than hay
or corn fodder. Silage enables one TO
keep larger number OF live stock on
given area OF land than may be
kept or forage crops cut for hay. II
furnishes succulent feed during the
summer when drouths frequently &C.
cur. II rrevents the waste Of corn
cohs. stalks and overripe fodder that
would otherwise not be eaten by the
animals

KEEP THE DEPENDENTS

The rigid application of the rules es-
tablished by the war department in regard
to exemptions on account of dependents
will result in the rejection of practically all
the claims for exemptions advanced by
married men. The government has gone
so far as to advocate the forced service of
married men where it has been shown, with
out question, that the wives and children
are dependent, but that the wife's family or
nlatives are able to support her and children.
We cannot believe that the announced
policy of the government will be carried out
to the full extent indicated by the ruling,
but if such policy is followed then we NAV
expect great many instances wnere hard
ships will fall on the wives and children of
the soldiers.
The question is going to be big one
and will in time call for most patriotic effort
on the part of the people to alleviate the
the condition of the families so unfortunate
as to fall in this class.
In many instances the woman will be
forced to assume the position of bread
winner for the family. And this suggests
the idea that every patriotic citizen who has
need OF workers should give preference to
women who have had the care Of families
forced on them through the draft.
We can all assist in creating the spirit
to help take care of the families of the men
who arecalled to the front.

ARMY REORGANIZATION

Army orders recently issued indicat
that this government will adopt the Euro
rean system for army units.
A dispatch to the Vicksburg Heral
from Washington says:
''The administrative unit Of the in
fantry arm hereafter will be a company
with $50 enlisted men and six commits
stoned officers, in place Of something
over 100 men and three officers. The
company will be di yided into four pla-
toons, each in command of lieutenant.
There will be two captains as first and
second command, one first lieutenant
and three second lieutenants. Reports
of the review Of American troops in
France yesterday show that this plan
already has been carried out in General
Pershing's forces.
'The object of assigning two cap
tains to each company, it is understood,
is to provide against disorganization of
the unit through the loss of it's COM
mander. The second captain, under the
European system, does not 60 into the
battle line with the company, if his
senior is present. He is held as re-
serve to reorganlze the company if
necessary"

SALE OF COURT PlASTERs

The Department of Justice re-
Gently investigated the sale of court
pastors in various sections of the
United States. Analyses were made
and some found to contain tetanus
germs. This is suspected as being
the work Of German sympathizers,
in an attempt to spread disease
thereby criDpling industry. Caution
against the purchase of this remedy
except from approved sources has
been issued. this warning being
particularly directed against the pur-
chase in small packages from street
peddlers and itinerant vendors.
We wish to emphasize the i'm
portance of this caution and request
your assistance in lessening the
danger of infection being spread
through medicinal preparations. The
druggist is responsible for the goods
he sells and to safeguard the public
health and himself he must know the
quality of his stock. Particular
caution is directed against the agents
representing an unknown firm under
selling the market price. Substitu-
ton and adulteration are the principal
causes why firm is able TO underseIl
competitors, regardless Of the reason
set forth by the agent. As pro-
lection to yourself and the public.
the only safe plen to follow is to buy
from recognized houses and to de-
mand a written guarantee as to
purity and quality.
At this time when our country !.
engaged in war, in the interest Of
maximum efficiency, it is imperative
that the public health be zeaIousIy
guarded. Your continued assistance
and cooperation is solicited.
OSCAR BOWLING,
President.

AFTER THE |. w. VS..

The national department of justice has
announced that drastic steps will be taken
to check the movement of the Industrial
Workers of the World This order has
mapped a program of strikes, disorders and
riots for several states of the union and
have taken advantage of the conditions that
surround the nation to make trouble.
If the developments Of the world war
have proven any one thing it is that labor
unions can be depended on to tie the hands
of the government in periods of national
peril. Every government concerned in the
great conflict has had the labor unions-to
conjole, pacify and appease. With foreign
enemies on the outside and labor agitators
on the inside every government has had its
hands full.
The average laboring man is patriotic
and is always ready to do his duty, but
many of them are bound up by irresponsible
sgitators who seize every opportunity to
make trouble.

handle too roughly the |. w. VS..
