Home grown fruits and vegetables

watermelons are being shipped in and
fresh figs and pineapples are on the
market, but me-grown peaches and
berries are more plentiful.
String beans are about gone, but
okra and eggplant have come to take
their place. Green corn grown in Okla

are much better than they were last

Tiny new radishes and onions are on

How to Buy Ice.
Now We have our boN-thc nest thing
to consider !, buying the ice, which
should mean more than hanging the ice
card IN the window with the figures in
dicating the .numbcrof pounds wanted
up.
There is, and always has been some
thing wrong with the manner and
methods OF buying and selling ice.
II is one branch in the commercial
works that is unfair and unjust to all
concerned There is such a chance
for argument on both sides that the
houSckeeper and the ice man are ac-
lnowlcdgcd enemies. The cat and dog
warfare that is carried on in some lo-
, caltcs between these two is. to say
the least, amusing, it not pathetic.

TRUE AND TRIED ALLIES

The American farmer not only feeds
our own soldiers and those of our allies,
but the people of the allied and neutral
countries as well. Because he is the base
Of supply of a great part of the world he
has to speed up his production. He must
do more work in less time than he ever
cid before. He must do all OF this work
with much less help than he has had in
former years.
How can he do this? He can do it by
using improved machinery for preparing
the seed bed, planting the crop, cultivat-
ing and harvesting it, gasoline engine
for small jobs, tractor for power, and
an automobile to run the errands and to
make the trips to town.
The automobile is Of especial import
ance at this time because it enables the
women folk and the younger members Of
the family to run the errands and to make
the trips to town 50 that the men can stay
in the fields. The women would not have
time from their other duties if they had
to drive a team-to say nothing about
taking team out Of the field at such a
busy season.
Before the war many people looked

But that notion has been changed, like
many others we all had before we start

That the automobile is a necessary part
Of the farmers equipment is shown by
the fact that out Of the 1900, 900 automo-
biles in this country 2, 7OO,O 900 -or over

LAST CALL FOR BONDS

This is war not merely Of guns and
bullets, but it is struggle of national
sentiment. We have to be very careful
that front of united feeling is presented
to our foes. There can be no hope OF
ending the war so long as Germany be-
lieves our people are not unitedly behind
it
The subscription Of the Liberty Loan
is the most accurate register OF public
sentiment. Germany does not care how
our people talk. She wants to know what
they will do. If they won't dig down into
their pockets for money, she will feel that
the war does not have general sanction,
and that we will make peace the first
time an easy way out is offered. That
will encourage her to keep on and on and
Kill more and more of our boys.
There is tendency among some people
to wait until the last moment thinking
perhaps their help will not be needed.
That Is taking chances. It is not possible
} to get too much money. II double the
amount asked for could be obtained, the
significance Of the thing would not be
Host on Berlin. It would show them that
We mean business. When they get it thor
ouGhly in their heads that we do mean
Business, there will be some change in
AAeir attitude. Probably not sufficient
change to justify ending the war, but
they will have begun to see through the
mists Of illusion. Then there will be some
hope that they viii abandon their maniac
desire to dominate the world.
Wherefore let US 60 the limit to help
put over the loan, and to make big over
subscription. The individual man may
sxy that his little subscription amounts
10 nothing. Yet if everyone takes that
view, the loan win be failure, and the
worlds finger Of shame will be pointed at

That comes from COED patriotism and

OUR BEEF OUTPUT

An adequate supply Of beef will prove
20 be one ct the greatest factors in win
ming this war, just as it has always been
prime factor in previous wars. The
United States stands today as the One
country with large supplies Of cattle
available for the use Of its own force and
those Of its Allies. Despite the deplorable
shortage Of ships we now are able to send
meat in greatly increased quantities to
Europe. Therefore, the question con-
fronting us is-How to encourage and
stimulate production.

figures are reassuring: Total cattle on

ENCOURAGE PRODUCTION

There is no probability at this time, as
many operators were prone to fear, that
the government will take over and oper-
ate the oil fields Of the country. On the
contrary, Mr.. Requa, chief Of the oil d.
vision Of the United States fuel admins
tration, is content to leave the produc-
ton Of oil in private hands, and in order
to encourage q larger output has signi-
fled the governments intention to fix q
higher price than the current rates upon
crude oil sd
This is z wise move and one that almost
certainly win insure . greater production
in keeping with the needs Of the war.
A policy Of the character encourages
any industry and il the greatest incentive
to increased production.
High prices for silver have opened the
mines which have been closed q quarter
of q century while an increased price for
copper would bring in many new pro-
ducers.

RED CROSS AUXILIARY.

Colored people OF Kansas City are ex-
pected to do their bit. l wonder how
many of you know there is a Colored
Red Cross Auxiliary No. % and that
they have a Charter the same as the
other races and that this Red Cross
Auxiliary is expected to do its bit
with your help? Do you realize that
every cent of every dollar received for
the Red Cross War Fund is spent for
War relief? Membership fees pay the
general administration expenses of
the Red Cross. The interest which
occurs from the banking of funds ac-
tually has made it available for War
Relief; one dollar and two cents for
every dollar contributed.
This auxiliary, through the FEEDER
ated Clubs at their headquarters have
made about three hundred and fifty
scarfs for the soldiers and about six
hundred garments for the French and
Belgium refugees. The finance com
mittee of this auxiliary of which Mrs
A. w. Winn is chairman, is doing
splendid work toward the uplift Of the

mittee is very DESTROYS of increasing
