Third Liberty Loan Will Find Farmers Expending All Energy to Deal Crush ing Blow at Teuton Hordes-Names of Country Boys Already Figure in Casualty Lists.

Enthusiastic tribute to the impor- tant part which the farmers of the country are playing in the great war is paid by Francis Lynde Stetson, the lawyer of New York and life member of the New York State Agricultural Society. In a statement just made to the Liberty Loan Committee, MT. Stet- son said:
 "Love of country has dominated our people throughout more than a cen- tury of unsurpassed efforts and sacri- fees to establish here the home and the example of democratic liberty for the oppressed of every race. Espe- cially has this been true of the most numerous and most important element of our diversified population-our farmers.

DOCTORS CIvE
 REASONS FOR
 SPRING FEVER
Explain It's Real Meaning

''The name Spring Fever," said a well known physician in converse tion the other day, ''is misnomer, and is largely a figure of speech used to describe the peculiar lassittude, that so many people complain of at the expiration of our winter months. It is a physiological condition well known to the medical profession, and is not a fever at all, but a general letting down of natures forces, par ticularly the nervous centers, due to the deficiency of iron and phosphor- ous both of which are absolutely necessary for the maintenance of bod fly vigor.
 "Of course" he continued, ''the ex- cessive meat eating, the loss of green vegetables and of oxygen, of which there is so little in the average heated house, all play their part. The result is that nature is calling for an in- creased output of the vital forces dur ing the winter months, and this de- mand means more phosphorus and iron. For it is these two potent reme- dies combined, which are natures armament in her defensive warfare. With the advent of warm weather, the pores act more freely and the heart slows up and that peculiar las situde which we call Spring Fever is manifested.
 And the remedy, Doctor" an in terested listener asked? "Why my dear sir, the remedy for these starved nerve and blood centers is Phosphated Iron. But there Is no reason why we should ever reach this point, if we would, from time to time take that well known remedy, Phosphated Iron, and so maintain the physiological balance, as shown by our color, our sense of we'll being, push and activity, all of which are necessary to make life worth while."
 And the Doctor was right.
 Special Notice-To insure Doctors and their patients receiving the genu- inc Phosphated Iron, we have put in capsules only. Do not allow dealers to substitute tablets or pills. Insist on capsules. Hindle Drug Stores and leading druggists everywhere.-Adv.

 WHERE ALLIED LOANS GO.

Some people are under the impress sion that the money which Uncle Sam is lending to the Allies leaves America for expenditure In Europe and other foreign countries.
 This is a mistaken idea. Virtually all of it is expended right here at home for American produced goods, munitions, and foodstuffs. Since the declaration of war against Germany on April 6, 1917, Congress has author ized the lending of S7,0O0,OO0,OOO to the Allies, to be paid over before July 1, 1918. Up to November 1 the Allies had received advances aggregating $3,691, 100000. They had expended in America for supplies $2,75S,9 900, and had remaining to their credit in the United States treasury a balance of S932, ,500,O0O.
 From April to November the Allies had been borrowing from Uncle Sam

WAR MAY CAUSE POSTPONINC OF. HIBERNIAN MEET

Present indications are that the An cient Order of Hibernians, which was to have it's convention this year in San Francisco, will not have it, be- cause of the war. Connecticut divis- ions that have taken action on the matter thus far are opposed to it, and it is believed that the rest of the state, as well as all the divisions throughout the country, will come to the same decision.
 When the national convention closed in Boston in 1916 it was decided to hold the next convention in San Fran cisco in 191S A number of complica- tions arose, however, and the na- | tional board at it's meeting on March 1 26 and 27 in Washington, ID. C., held long discussion relative to the ad- visibility of holding it this year. It was finally decided to submit the matter to a referendum vote of all the mems and women's branches of the order in the country. The result of the vote must be in the hands of the national board on or before May !15.
 Another deciding factor was the lprobable expense of $500, 900. It was felt that the money could be better spent under existing circumstances for patriotic purposes. There was the added fact that attendance at the lconvention in San Francisco would mean for the delegates an absence ot about a month, at a time when work
 CTS of any sort can i'll be spared from
 any enterprises.
 So far Connecticut divisions have
 been almost a unit in favoring the
 abandonment of the convention unti
 next year, or until after the war.

"since the fatefuI day at Lexington.

our SOll.
 "Since the fateful day at Lexington, when the embattled farmers fired the shot heard round the world they and their successors have stood and sui fered for freedom, the freedom which in this dear land of ours means lfb- erty under law. Now, such freedom for us not less than for our allies is challenged and threatened by foe as formidable in military strength as in his malignant purpose of foreign con- quest; and, realizing the peril, our farmers are rallying with splendid de termination for the protection and the preservation of our hard won liberty.
 Accepting the teachings of their great spokesman, Thomas Jefferson, they are pledging anew for the sake of precious liberty their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor.
 How their lives are given is shown by our National Roll of Honor. Every casualty list from our camps, whether here or in France, is swelled with names of brave boys from farms iR every state of the Union. Devoted la borers in our fields are feeding the armies and the peoples in Britain and Belgium and France and Italy. The fortunes, large or small, of our farm CTS are being poured into the na- tion's treasury to help win the war.
 This is the case in this State of New York in particular and in a de gree not generally known. In every county of this Empire State, farmers committees are organizing to conduct campaigns in each rural district for the Liberty Loan, about to be offered for subscription. Our farmers have entered heartily into this drive, deter mined to go over the top of the quotas for each district.
 "All praise to them for their splen- did effort, and the most hopeful ex- pectation for their success Having put their hands to the plough they will not turn back. Such is not their won't Whether on the field of fruit

ful industry or on the field of battle for a righteous cause, the farmers of New York have always followed their furrow to it's end, and now they will not falter or fail
 "When Germany is raising its eighth loan for the destruction of liberty, our New York farmers will spare no effort nor any sacrifice to do their bit for our own Third Liberty Loan, the best investment in the world to be made even more valuable by the vic tory which in due course is certain to be ours. They are going forward, not win any song of hate in their hearts oT mouths, but shouting the battle cry of freedom, Rally round the flag, boys; rally once again!"

ALLIED FOOD SHIPMENTS
 REACH LARGE TOTAL

A general idea of the quantity of food sent to. European allies by the United States from July 1, 1914, t0 January 1, 1918, is given by figures just announced by the .. S. Food Az ministrat1en. in that period the Unit ed States has furnished complete year ly rations for 57,100,933 people. In addition there was enough extra pro tein to supply this portion of the diet for 9, ,194, ,57O additional men.
 The total export of wheat and wheat four to the three principal allies is equivalent to about 3s4, 100000 bushels. Pork exports for the 91s years amount ed to almost 2O00,OO0Oo0 pounds Ex- ports of fresh beef totaled AS, ,4S4, 400 pounds. The amount of food exported to Russia is negligible compared with that sent to the western allies.

at the rate of approximately $500 0,O00,- 900 a month And they had been spending it with us almost as rapidly as they got it. Thus the money which you put into Liberty Bonds in the two preceding campaigns has been trickling back through the channels of commerce in an uninterrupted stream.
 Every dollar you put into Liberty Bonds is an added stimulus to Ameri-. can industry and American prosperity.
