THE UNIVERSAL GAR

Congress is laying plans for six
years of war and is making arrange
ments along this line The mem
bers of congress are making arrange
ments so that every soldier of the
United States will have everything
that he may need while he is fight
ing for the country. Meantime ev-
cry effort is being made to end the
war as soon as possible and the
army and navy have accepted the
presidents challenge to make this
year the end of the conflict. Let US
hope that congress is mistaken in
the length of time that we will be
in the fight.

Prices Higher in 1776.

You without doubt are compalain-
ing of the high cost of living. Back
in the days of the Revolution Abgi
aail Adams was doing the saline
thing. Here are some prices upt-
ed from letter she wrote her hH.s-
band, the second president of tt he
United States, given out recently
by the state food admintration:
Meat-$100 to 200.
Corn -$25 90 bushel,
Potatoes $1,000 bushel.
Mclasses $1,000 a gallon.
Flour-$500 hundred weight.
Cider-$4000 a barrel.
Cheese-$200 pound.
Butterine-$300 pound.
Sugar-$S,O0 a pound.
This was Abigall's list in 1776.
In 1779 sugar rose to 81 a pound
and tea the same. In 1880 butter
sold for $1,000 a pound and tea
for $4,000.
Such were the prices in revolu-
tlonary times when we were irving
to carry on a war and feed only
ourselves at the same time.

Missouri Pr0SbyterianS Put
On Big Campaign.

Synod was organized for one of the
biggest and what promises to be
one of the most effective cam

to Missouri but is part of a large
movement in the whole General
Assembly of the Southern Presby
terian Church to quicken religious
zeal and raise 100000 for ALL
Benevolent Causes to be given dur
ing the year beginning April list.
Never has there been such an
important and far reaching move.
ment undertaken by the Presby-
terians. 1t challenges the best eff
forts, the most generous gifts and
most fervent prayers of the church
people. 1t is in keeping with the
spirit of the times because il is an
effort to more adequately minister
to Others as represented in the
Foreign and HON, Mission gifts,
Ministerial Relief aud Education,
Sabbath School. Bible Cause, Or
phanages, and all phases of Local
Home Missions now included in
Benevolences.
One of the reasons why this Cam.
paign is worth while is that it came
from the thought. prayer and in.
terest of great Christian layman.
Mr.. James B SpilIman; who. sees
the work of the church from a
practical business point of view
and has a great vision of. it. AS
chairman of the Central Committee
Mr.. Spillman outlined for US the
purpose of the movement:
Cd To intensity the growing
spirit of Stewardship of Life and
Substance, now being felt
ca To arouse the whole church
to a better performance of its be
nevolent work. To raise in pledges
for 1918 1919 100000 in all the
Assembly, $15OOOO being Missouri's
part.
Through conferences, church ba
pers, advertising, study classes and
the distribution of the best litera,
ture, to bring our people to recoe-
nize the worldwide responsibilities
and opportunities of the church at
this time.
60 To hold throughout the
church in March three simultane.
Gus meetings bearing directly upon
the objects of the campaign, using
the regular morning service hour on
the first. second and third Sundays
of March. To do this, because
many pastors have more than one
church, will require the drafting al
least of 1900 laymen to conducl
services in what would otherwise
be vacant pulpits. Specially pre-
paired and printed programs will b.
supplied for these services, anC
abundant literature for addresses
can be secured from your grouI
manager,
Ii is believed that the progress
of this campaign will be closel!
watched by Christians of all demon
nations, who will rejoice when
is achieved and profit themselve
by a zeal it awakens and the spiri

Look After Farm Tools.


Farm machinery in recent years
has played very important role in
crop production, and this year its
place in farm operations is more
important than ever before The
proper amount and kind of tools
will enable the farmer to work more
land and obtain better returns In
fact, the increased use of farm
machinery frequently makes il
possible to manage the farm with
less help One of the greatest causes
of deterioration of farm tools and
implements is their exposure to the
weather and the failure upon the
part of the farmer or laborer TO
clean them properly before they are
put away for the season when they
are not in active use There is a
wide variation in the length of life
Of those farm implements treated
properly and those left TO rust out
in the fields. This difference is
sufficient to pay high interest On
the initial cost of good farm
machinery. The lack of proper
storage and care during the winter
months is responsible for much Of
the depreciation This season also
is the best time in which to repair
machines and put them in proper
mechanical condition.
The farmer has everything to gain
and nothing to lose by placing his
order as early as possible for new
machines and repair parts which
will be needed next season If this
fact is true in normal times, its i'm
portance is magnified many times
now that shipments frequently re
quire longer time.
The farmer has been advised
times without number concerning
the desirability of overhauling farm
tools and implements during the
slack season. Whether such ad
vice is necessary or whether it i.
acted upon in normal times is not {
question to be considered now. Tn,
need for ample machinery, running
smoothly and without breakdown
in 1918. is more important to tn,
farmer than ever before To thi
end steps should be taken now.
The newly organized Woman

are enrolled, has started out to re
