New York. October 1s.--The favorable character of the war news and the feel ing of important developments which may at any time occur under prssent conditions, brought an advance in our market this morning. A strong stock market brought some Wall street cov- ering and there was moderate amount of buying for the domestic trade, aI- though many mills feel so unsettled as to the future that they have not been free buyers ahead, as has been the case for the past few years. Liverpool was also buyer here, for the first time in some weeks. The cotton was supplied by an increase in the volume of southern sell ing, but business was at no time partic- ularly active. There is a slightly less bearish tinge to sentiment, although the general feeling is that no substantial advance is likely. The market, however, has been very steady for the past few days, and we think it is still technically short-Hubbard Bros.

CORROBORATION
or Interest to Pullman Readers

For months Pullman citizens have
seen in these columns enthusiastic
praise of Doan's Kidney Pills by
Pullman residents. Would these
prominent people recomm end a rem
edy that had not proven reliable =?
Would they confirm their statements
after years had elapsed if personal
experience had not shown the remedy
to be worthy of endorsement? The
following statement should carry
conviction to the mind of every Pull
man reader.
II. H. Parrish, retired farmer, $40
Water ST., Pullman, says. Il had
catches in my back and hip and had
to go to bed. The pains and twinges
through my kidneys were sometnins

ney Pills, so l decided to try them.
found relief from the first few
doses and when l had finished the
box | was free from kidney trouble. "
The above statement was given
June 6, 1913, and on July 5, 1916,
Mr.. Parrish added: The cure 1
mentioned in my former endorse
ment has been lasting. Doan's can
surely be depended on to cure kidney
ailments"

INTERESTING LETTER
FROM THE FRONT
Nephew of c. ID. Martin in Thickest
of the Fray---Explains Feelings
of Men Under Fire

The following interesting letter
from the front was written by Ser
geant George Winship of Athena,
Oregon, a nephew of c. d. Martin
of this city:
Have been going to write for the
past week, but am on the front and
have little time for writing. Have
been on the front since July 4th.
The work | am now in is to keep au-
tos and guns going, also see that
they have ammunition, which is sure
some job. Have eight men under me,
and We never know when we will be
called upon to make a trip to one
of the batteries. 1t gives one a queer
feeling to go along the road, know
ing that you might connect up with a
1876 G. p. F. But | like this better
than being in camps like we have
been, for here we have noise in the
daytime and fireworks at night.
THE heaviest fighting is between
2:30 a. m. and 1900 noon, rain or
shine, it goes on just the same. II
saw the Germans set a French bal
loon on fire, also an airplane battle
yesterday. This life is sure thrill
from start to finish. We hang onto
our steel derbys and gas masks now.
They are our best friends.
ITS pitiful to see the poor French
people leaving their homes. 1t is a
sad sight to see hundreds of them
along the roads taking their few be-
longings and stock with them. Yes
terday | went out to bring in a Dodge
boy; one was leading a COW and the
other sheep, all they had left in the
world, or at least time to bring with
them. This is the saddest part of
the war to my thinking, but things
of which | can not write show that it
won't be long before they will again
have their homes back,
Have been watching the Germans
fire at an observation balloon, also
an air fight. AS | write this, the 1913
G. p. F.'s are sure making some
noise. It's now 800 D. M. so it,
won't be long until the big battle
starts up for the night. 1t was a
warm one last night. 1t seemed as
If could reach the shells going over,
and it was a sight to watch them
break.
Il have to accompany each ammu-
milton train from the dump to the
guns-scafy at times, but | like it.
| figure that if my name is on one
of them | will get it, no matter where
| am. Feeling that way, | am not
afraid. Must stop and curl up for
little nap.

FIVE MILLION MORE HOGS
8F Is NATIONS need

The United States Department of
Agriculture is. organizing a national
campaign for 100000 more hogs, or
a Is per cent increase in the, hog
production next year. The officials
in charge say the campaign will SIC
ceed if every state will do it's sL.-
From Missouri, which is asked for
80 per cent more hogs, to West Vir-
sginia, to whichsis allotted only
per cent increase, the state quotas
have been carefully and logically
worked out: according to the corn
and other feed supplies Of the States.
If the states do not reach the quo
tas set for them, more acute short
age of pork products than now pre-
walls will result, extremely high pri-
ces for hams, bacon and lard will
prevail, consumers will suffer from
the high prices and the shortage of
necessary animal fats, and only a
few will benefit. Prices to the pro-
ducer should be remunerative under
the assistance pledged by the food
administration, and prices paid by
consumers should be reasonable.

EFFICIENCY MEEK FOR
PEOPLE or MINNESOTA

AS means Of promoting produc-
ltion and nservation Ia 1918 the
Estate Committee Of Food Production
E,and Conservation recently decided to
feall upon the people Of Minnesota
for I the observance Of Efficiency
Week, January Z to IA inclusive.
1.-The purpose in setting aside this
week as Efficiency Week is to se-
cure a close study by all Minnesotans
Eof the problems Of production, dis
ltribution and service, preservation
of breeding stock, farm and house
hold equipment, food and clothing,
lscare of gardens and fruits, and la
Hbor.~ .... : l.. .'' - (.
Z The general plan is to urge every
reorganization in the state to set a.
lside some adequate time or. times
t'during the week named for dis
|$cussion of the problems Of greatest
interest to it. The work must be
Iidone through local or other clubs
and through these the ideas develop
ed are to reach the individual. The
state committee feels that this ap-
peal for Efficiency Week should be
especially interesting to clubs COM
posed of farmers, women, men in
commercial pursuits, and shippers.
1t is the hope that clubs of the
kind named and others will arrange
for meetings during Efficiency Week
and lay out plans for the coming
year. r.
t As a help the state food committee
will soon publish a circular giving
concise information. and suggestions.

The Russian Bolsheviki seem to
have been handed lemon in the
German peace proposals. The Kali
ser's government modestly demanded
control of the Russian wheat market
for a period of fifteen years, that
she retain all Russian territory now
occupied by her troops, and that all
German-made goods be imported in
to Russia duty free. Doubtless there
were few minor concessions she
would have also, but she hoped to-
have no trouble in securing these
when she had her victim securely
tied. But even Bolsheviki has glim-
merings Of reason and the PROPOSE
tlon was not received with enthu-
siasm.

THE PRESIDENTS DEFlNl- .,' 3
TlON OF eERMANIsRl

Innumerable articles and many
books have been written to define
" "Germanism'' and show to the world
what it,tmeans.
In his message to Congress Decemz
Der President Wilson defines it as
follows: z>.s:.=:= $ss$ =..s
This intolerable Thing Of which
the masters of Germany have shown
us the ugly face, this menace Of com
bined intrigue and force which we
now see SO clearly as the German
power, Thing without conscience or
honor or capacity for covenanted
peace" -" - 49,, 81. $, - y :>@2 -
This Thing must be crushed, and
if not truly brought to an end, at
least shut out from the friendly in
tercourse of the nations says the
President, and it is only when this
Thing and it's power are indeed de-
feated that the time can come when
we can discuss peace with the Ger
man people.
1t is pointed out by the Treasury
Department that Thrift Stamps are
not made redeemable in cash for the
reason that these stamps are simply
intended as a convenient method for
the small savers to accumulate en-
ough to purchase War Savings
Stamps, which bear interest and are
redeemable in cash. '~5 -
In addition, to provide for redemp-
tion for these Thrift Stamps would
involve such an amount of detail ac-
counting and labor and expense as to
impair the practicability of their
use. In fact, they would be more
trouble and expense to the Govern
ment possibly than they are worth.
