regard TO the age limit In CIDER to se.
cure soldiers for such an army as Ia
row contemplated. No doubt there
will be reduction in the age limit,
but not without a great deal Of pro-
test, as many men In congress think II
Is unfair TO young men to force them
into military service before they have
reached the voting age of twenty-one
years. In the discussion at one Of the
short sessions of the senate allusiOn
was made to the fact that men below
the present age limit are volunteering
for service in the navy and marine
corps and giving good account of
themselves. Senator Nelson Of Mime
sofa. who enlisted In the Civil war
when eighteen years old, again took
up the subject Of young soldiers and
insisted that we would secure a much
better army by taking in tie boys from
eighteen to twenty-one rather than try
ing to make soldiers of men above
thirty-One. He also called attention to
the fact that there was still a pres
sure on the part of many men to get
into the military service in positions
of "sOft snaps where they would not
be called upon for actual fighting or
going into the trenches. He insisted
that that kind of material would not
be obtained IL the drift age was re-
duced and that real soldiers would be

an act establishing mint at Boston
and appointing John Hull mintmaster.
He was silversmlth and an emigrant
from the old country. He must have
been a man Of some consequence. for
In addition to mintmaster he became
town treasurer Of Boston, captain Of
an artillery company and finally treas.
urer of the colony. As mlntmaster he
coined silver shillings, sixpences and
thrlpences. all of which had design
on one side Of pine tree as an en-
blem OF Massachusetts,. From this II
came to be called Pine-tree money and
has long been highly priced by coin
collectors as rare and valuable. Hull
died In 1888 and the coinage was dis.
continued.

A good quality OF silage Is extremely
palatable and can be fed to all classes
Of sheep with good results. II must be
remembered. however, that siIage
which Is either very sour. moldy or
frozen should not be fed.
Use of this succulent feed for sheep
has attracted the attention OF most
farmers only during the past few
years. Much has been said OF Its bad
effects upon sheep. but these have been
due either to an inferior quality Of
silage or carelessness Of the feeder
and improper feeding.

MILK GOOD FOR ALL

Drink milk. Drink more milk.
Pure, fresh rich milk is a food
fit for the gods. Babies cannot
live without milk; and growing
children grow the faster for it.
It gives vitality to youth, pow
er to middle life, and to old age
It brings a goodly portion of the
health and strength of former
years. 1t should be used more
largely by people Of all ages,
classes and conditions. Milk
steadies the nerves and adds to
the health, physical strength
and mental energy Of those who
use 1t. 1t excels coffee, and
with it tea is not to be COM
pared. We may drink it at
meals and between meals. 1t
Is delicious, refreshing, invlgor-
ating. 1t is one of natures best
gifts TO man. Come, let us have
another glass of milk.

Washington.-W are looking ahead
quite long ways when we talk about
what shall be done with the German
ships after the war. 1t Is very doubt
full whether the people of the United
States would look with favor upon re-
turning German ships which were con-
fiscnted and are now being used by this
government, But 1t is the ships that
are In the Klel canal and in the Ger
man harbors that are of especial In
terest, particularly the fighting ships.
1t is not believed that Great Britain
and France will ever consent to have
those ships left in possession Of Ger
many and thus become nucleus OF
further submarine outrages when Ger
many gets ready for another war.
While 1t Is looking long way ahead.
It seems TO be the determination OF
all the nations which are now con-
Quoting the war against the mad dog
OF Europe" TO so end that war as TO
make it impossible for any set of men
to preclpitate upon the world any
such catastrophe as that which began
four years ago and is still wrecking
the world. Germany must be stripped
Of her war power, and that will in
clude all the ships that can be used
for war purposes.

Neutral Countries.
COW is EFFICIENT PRODUCER
Great Law OF Food Conservation lie to
Turn InedibIe FEEDS Into Edible
Foods In Cheapest Manner Pos
sibIe-cIeanIines Urged.

Dairying-One of the largest of the
agricultural enterprises of this coun-
try--has a big war job. Dairy prod
ucts are essential to the well-being of
the nation, and 1t has been urged by
the United States department Of agrl-
culture that every effort be made to
maintain the supply in this country,
and so far as possible, to meet the in
creasing demands of the allies.
Before the war the United States
received dairy products from "a for
elgn countries. Now these supplies
have been largely stopped and 1t has
become necessary not only to replace
them at home but to export large
quantities.
Turns Feed into Food.
Two facts stand out prominently as
reasons for the increased production
and use of milk. The first is that milk
ss purchased on the market usually
supplies food material together with
the growth-produclng elements, more
economically than either meat or eggs.
The second reason is that the dairy
COW is the most economical producer
OF animal food. One great law of
food conservation is to turn inedible
feeds into edible foods In the cheapest
possible manner. The dairy cow VIII
utilize coarse materials, inedible by
humans, such as grass. cornstalks, hay,
etc, and viii turn them into milk,
which is suitable for human food.
Other farm animals also are convert
ers OF coarse roughage into edible food,
but are not SO efficient as the dairy
COW.
So much for the war duty Of the
producer. To get the full benefit OF
the milk, care and attention on the
part of the consumer is necessary.
Consumer Must Be Careful.
II the milk producer and the milk
dealer have done their duty there Is
left daily at the consumers door a
bottle Of clean, cold, unadulterated
milk. BY improper treatment In the
home the milk then may become unfit
for food, especially for babies. This
had treatment may consist of placing

Through the rural motortruck serv-
ice instituted by the post Office depart
ment great deal of information has
been obtained regarding produce, for
these motortrucks handle 0 large
amount of farm and garden products
which are carried to the cities. The
service now forms a chain from Port
land, Me-. to Washington. ID. c.. with
branches In Pennsylvania, Delaware,
Maryland and Virginia. and Its success
is likely to cause It's extension into
communities further west. Motor
truck men have been gathering infor-
nation on prices and 1t is found that
in radius Of 100 miles the price Of
eggs varies from 30 to 65 cents per
dozen; potatoes from $3.50 to $2.25
per bushel; young chickens from 30 to
20 cents a pound; butter from SO to
~ cents pound. There is a possibil-
ity that when the motortruck service
Is In full operation there viii be an
equalization of these prices which will
be to the advantage of the farmer as
well as the consumer.

Suffraglsts will make another effort
TO pass the federal amendment soon
after the senate resumes business.
The sufPragists have been materially
aided by changes in the senate and
It is believed that several senators
now serving under temporary appoint
ments are likely to vote for suffrage,
although the men whose places they
fill were opposed to suffrage. Such
is the impression In regard to Benet
of South Carolina, Wiley of Missouri
and Guion of Louisiana. The efforts
which President Wilson is making to
get Democratic senators to vote for
the suffrage amendment are power
full aid to the suffrage cause. 1t is
rather hard for senators who are can
didates for reelection, and who are
conscientiously opposed to woman suf-
frage, to withstand the demand of the
president that they vote for the suf-
frage amendment as n war measure.

A question has been raised as to
whether there should not be leglsla-
ton to prevent the return to this coun-
try Of Germans who were residents
here but went back to Germany to
fight for the kaiser. There were thou
sands of these men who came TO this
country to better their conditions,
some Of whom became American cltl-
zens, but upon the demand of the Ger
man autocracy went back and are now
fighting against Americans. 1t would
be an interesting question TO decide
as to whether those German soldiers
should ever again be permitted to
enter this country.

When the rumors of graft and prof
iteering in war supplies first began to
receive attention in tie national capt.
tai general condemnation was ex-
pressed, and none in Inose pronounced
terms than uttered by Senator James
Hamilton Lewis of Illinois, quite gen.
orally recognized as spokesman in the
senate for the administration. He
then remarked that when American
boys were being shot down in Europe
while fighting the battles of their coun-
try, and at the same time men in the
United States were defrauding those
gallant soldiers and accommodating
large profits for themselves on goods
and materials furnished to the army,
1t would cause bitter feeling among
the people in this country which
would mean severe punishment. IL
the troops were furnished with poor
food and defective raiment. or with
guns and ammunition which were
poorly made in order that somebody
could reap profits, II would mean the
prosecution of the Drofteers, and no
jury in America would let them of
with anything less than the maximum
amount of punishment.
While there have been charges and
some proof that profiteering in the
way of furnishing defective materials
has been going on. II has been COM
paratiyely small. considering the vast
amount OF materials that has been pur-
chased. But 1t Is known that the gov
eminent authorities are close upon the
trail OF all those who would defraud
the soldiers and 1t is almost certain
that swift and severe punishment will
follow their conviction.
What seemed rather severe hard
ship upon parents and other friends
of soldiers who desired to send them
packages either of foodstuffs, clothing
or tobacco. and were denied that priv
ilege except upon written request
coming through commanding officers,
Ii explained at the war department.
II seems that at first the american ex.
pedltionary force was overwhelmed
with these packages. great quantity
OF which arrived In damaged condi-
ton. and which oftentimes were use
less to the soldiers. General Pershing
therefore issued an order that nothing
was to be sent unless on request By the
soldier, coming through the officer In
command Of the detachment The post
once department will not accept these
packages except they comply With the
requirements Of Pershing's order. In
some instances this works hard
ship. but in a great war with 4 million
and quarter OF men in a foreign
land, everything must be systematiEed

Already II has come to the notice OF
officers of the treasury department
that sharpers are trying to get the best
of innocent people who are owners Of
Liberty bonds. They are trying to
obtain them at discount or to trade
worthless properties for them. The
treasury department feels called upon
to warn everybody to beware OF this
class of swindlers and before dispos-
Ing Of a government bond to consult
a banker or government Official In re-
gard to its value. But further than
that, Il Is recommended that owners
Of government bonds make every ef-
fort to hold them, because In doing so
they are helping finance the war.
On the principle that "a singing ne
ton cannot be defeated" the council
OF national defense Is undertaking to
organize Liberty chorusess IN every
community in the country. These
choruses win sing at all patriotic
meetings, such IS Liberty loan and
Red Cross rallies. and In fact local
gatherings Of every kind. Under the
urge and example OF fits Liberty chorus.

both to reduce and to increase the age

All Of Americas preparations for
carrying on the war are on such
grand scale at the present time
as to indicate the possibility of a
protracted struggle. We have laid
down program for long war. With
more than hundred government ship
yards completed or in the course o.
construction; with hundreds Of pow
der and ammunition plants completed
or nearly ready for business; with
preparations for an army of 100000
additional men, and with appropria-
tons and revenue laws never dreamed
of before, it is evident that this cOun-
try Is putting itself In an attitude
which will make 1t the greatest fight
ing power the world has ever known.
America Is really waking up and the
Germans must begin to realize that
fact by what has happened in Europe
already And they ought to know more
about 1t If their spies in this country
dare to keep them informed of what
the United States is doug.

of DR.. G. Howard Davis, Pinal county's
representative to the state Legislature
of Arizona, says the Casa Grande Bull
letin. DR.. Davis made a record show
ing during the last session, working
for all the measures that were for the
good of the state. and this showing is
right in lire with his land improve
ment and activity in making beauty
epot in the valley of the Casa Grande.
The Davis farm is in section thirty,
township seven south, range eight
east The holdings embrace the entire
section, with 100 acres in cultivation.
Five years have passed since the
Davis family filed on mesquite lands
and started the work of reclamation,
and the fertile soil upon which they
built their home has responded won
derfully to their toll Recently fine
Layne e Bowler pump was installed,
replacing a pump of smaller capaci-
ty, and now a silver stream of 1000
gallons of water per minute furnishes
ample irrigation for fields of cotton,
milo maize, Soudan grass and alfalfa,
BILE and berry patches, and supplying
water for their residence.
E. C. Powell and his estimable wife
have had the management of the doc
tors farm this year, and under the
care of this able agriculturist it pre-
sents an appearance which attracts
valley visitors bent upon seeing actual
and successful farming in this great
valley To say that the 100 acres
under cultivation is $100 per acre land
is putting the price low. The showing
made proves that the development of
the underground flow in this valley
raises the value of land equal to the
best in the Salt River valley in point
of production, and it would take con-
siderable money to purchase the Davis
holdings.
Monday the Democrats of this Sec
ton of Pinal county endorsed DR..
Davis as candidate to run on their
ticket for county supervisor, and this
paper believes that the fine record he
has made as a representative and
earnest worker for nation. state and

what party they belong to, for he is
