DON'T "RlDE THE BUMPS" IN THE
DAILY WAR NEWS.

Do you ride all the bumps of the
war news from day to day? Many
good patriots do Each morning
brings its passing changes in the war
situation; now gloom in the form Of
setback on the Western front, or fur
Their disintegration in Russia, or ru-
mOrs of delay in our own war prepa
ratiOns. Next morning, like as not,
there will be something of a hopeful
nature, such as the checking of the
Huns drive in Italy, or raid by the
British or French, or good news here
at home
To follow and feel all these glees
and glooms from day to day is human
and exciting
But it involves much useless wear
and tear of the spirit.
There is another vieWpoint-that Of
disregarding the daily shifts and
changes in the war situation, keeping
ones attention concentrated on the
long haul of war and the final result.
That haul is still long one. For
Germany is not beaten yet, but
the results are sure, because we have
right on our side, and also the largest
battalions. If you grow warm and then
cold, and alternate between enthuSi-
assn and a depression with the daily
news changes, you not only waste
your energy, but are likely to f1uctuate
in your policy as a business man and
your determination as a patriot. The
good resolution TO save food, support
Uncle Sam financially and cheerfully,
adjust your business and habits to
the war program will be stiffened on
the morning that you read about some
Hun atrocity against our own soldiers
in France. But in a week there may
be news of a different character,
which leads you to let down a little,
on the assumption that Germany has
begun to crack and that the war is
about over
1t is good business, good patriotism
and good conservation to forget most
of the headlines in the morning paper
and concentrate strictly upon the long,
hard grind between today and the
final result. That will save your
spirit, buck up your resolution, and
enable you to do your utmost in win,
ming the war.
Moreover, it will enable you to get
out of the war, as a business man and
a patriot, the utmost benefit from war
adjustments. Those adjustments
make for wiser and more economical
personal habits. as well as a business
grounded in sound economy.
Even should peace come tomorrow
you can never go back to the old heed
less wasteful days either in business
or livelihood.
Don't ride the bumps of the war
news!
Settle down in harness for the long
grim haul that counts.

SPREAD MANURE ON FIELDS
Handle Fertiizer-No Loss Where
Soil Doesn't Wash.

The best and most economical way
to handle manure is to draw the ma
nure out to the fields as fast as
made, and spread 1t. If the ground
is not liable to wash badly and is not
of leachy character, there will be
no loss of fertility.
