II would be well II every American

ular and pleasing fallacies. First. that
the United States took up arms as
knight Grant to right the wrongs OF
France and Belgium. Second. that our
impressive entrance into the war must

sue. We are fighting as free people
for our own safety. and We must fight
hard and well. or suffer a shameful
defeat Germany denied us the seas
because she thought We would accept
our fate from her hands. She permits
herself now a profound contempt for
our army. Unframed men with defec-
tive ammunition are about as terrible
in her eyes as prairie dogs would be
in ours. She boasts happily that We
will pay her the indemnity which Is
essential for her reconstruction
Meanwhile, to make sure OF our
downfall. she plots REASONABLY In

she wins the day. she will recompense
such men as Senators Stone and La

on the scrap-heap. But loyal Ameri'
cans may well understand that unless
this nation puts forth all its strength
without reserve. without fatigue, with
out self-pity; unless We crush the trai'
tors at home. and defeat the enemy

Store Ice TO Save Ammonia.

Every ton of natural ice gathered
and stored this winter will help In
wartime conservation of ammonia,
which is vitality important In the manu-
facture of fertilizers and explosives.
Ammonia is a necessity In the manu-
facture of ice, and the salts Of am

ammonia, conservation of coal Is to be
effected through the harvesting of nat

NEED HELP ON MILK
lAW7 EXPERTS
ADVICE AVAILABLE.

A study of the milk ordinances
OF many cities, large and small,
shows a great diversity OF opin-
ion among lawmakers and their
advisers as to what constitutes
proper milk ordinance. A
great lack of uniformity among
laws, some of which are entire
~ out of date, has been noted.
Many of them seem to be tran
scripts of ordinances in force In
other cities, placed In the mu-
nicipal series of laws without
regard TO local conditions, and
some contain provisions which
are unnecessary and unreason-
able and cannot be enforced.
Bulletin 5S5 Of the department
Of agriculture suggests a form
of ordnance which. IL Is be-
lieved, will prove to be a salts
factory framework upon which
the average town or city can
build a finished. practicable law

chean Source of Protein.

Milk at 10 cents a quart Is as cheap
a source of protein as sirloin steak at
34.3 cents a pound or eggs at 41.e
cents a dozen. MIX at the same price
is as cheap a source Of energy as sir
loin steak at 21.2 cents a pound or
eggs at 20 cents a dozen. Protein and
energy are two important necessities
for which we eat food. MIX contains
the bodybuilding materials-protein
and mineral substances, such as lime
and phosphorus-needed to renew body
wastes and promote growth by form
ing new tissues and fluids; and II also
supplies the energy for carrying on
body functions.
The average person In this country
uses only little more than a half
pint Of milk daily. This quantity can
be increased very probably when safe
milk is available. Many persons think
Of milk only as beverage, but II they
understood that IL is really o nour-
ishing food they would increase the al
lowance. Economy In the diet does
not always depend on limiting the use
Of certain foods, but II Is sometimes
a question Of actually increasing the
use Of foods which furnish nutritive
material at relatively low cost. MIX
belongs TO the later class and the
housewife would do well to study In
food value and decide whether her
family Is using as much as II should

MIS- Fnh'p moore' great campaign OF
patriotic education which the Secur-
ty League is conducting throughout
the country under the direction OF
this committee:
A tremendous responsibility is
placed upon the women of the United
States. The thing we need today is
Inspiration. Our obligation is just as
great as II the war were on our own
borders or on the shores Of the Mis-
sissippi. When this inspiration and
obligation are brought hsme, women
can do more than men to bring condi-
lions TO the people.
The resources OF the country are
more definitely needed in war than in
peace, and women can do more than
any other force TO conserve these re-
sources. The American people have
much to learn, and this lesson Is need.
ed to teach them TO be less wasteful
and more alive to industrial condi-
lions. The laissez faire sort Of living
is not good patriotism. and the hour
has come upon which we may look
back with appreciation. the hour
which made us more thoughtful of
mankind, less self ceniered.
What England Did.
In England IL is estimated that $780,
900 women have gone out TO work
who did not do SO before the war
The number OF women who have been
substituted for men in Industries. ex

900 women employed in government
works, including arsenals, dockyards

agricultural pursuits. and $4,000 In
transportation.
II is in the industrial and economic
field that the world war will mark the
most far reaching transformation In
the condition of women.
From the women Of the country we
ask utmost loyalty TO the declaration

munities Form Prepared
Which Will Assist.

Milk laws should meet local condl-
lions. Ordinances governing the dairy
industry must be prepared with care
and be enforced. officials of the
United States department Of agri-
culture say that it would not be wise
to attempt to draft milk ordinance,
with its standards, grades, and re-
qulrements. without special study of
local dairy conditions as well as the
purposes Of such an ordinance. One
Of the most important considerations
must be the reasonableness of the
law. A law which works an unneces-
sary hardship on legitimate industry
is not reasonable. and law so strin-
gent that 1t cannot readily be en-
forced will defeat its own ends.

Town meeting day, always the sec

use the Australian ballot. With the
Australian ballot, same as at general
elections, every candidates name ap-
pears on the one ballot and the voter
places cross opposite the names of
those for whom he wishes to vote,
thus no candidate is given any undue
advantage over another. The printed
ballots cost only trife.

given anything to eat by their owners
