Of alcohol as II therapeutic agent
should be further discouraged"

Mr.. Right; you've said this is
war! To win the war it might be neces-
sary for the government to take your
factory away from you, and ruin your
business. 1t might be necessary to take
your house and turn you out in the street.
What of thatP Is that as great sacrifice
as your neighbor makes, or stands ready
to make, when he gives his boy to his
country? Yet you don't think IFS your
duty to pinch and save, and borrow il
need be, in order to buy Liberty Bonds,
and thus help shorten the war, make VIC
tory certain, and save the lives of thou
sands of American boys who will other
wise be uselessly sacrificed.
Mr.. Doubtful: IL guess that's true,
Mr.. Right, | have been thorghtless. Ill
stop complaining and critcising, and put
up my last dollar if need be, to help
win this war"

Turn Rabbit Pests Into Profits.

Fully 100000 900 wild rabbits are
killed in the United State every year,
according to estimates made by the
Biological Survey of the United States
Department of Agriculture. Many OF
them are jack rabbits, the majority of
which have not been utilized in the past.
If all the rabbits killed were consumed,
they would furnish between 100000 and
100000 tons of valuable food, and if
proper measures were taken to insure the
collection Of skins, these alone would
have value of S20,000,000. The
Biological Survey has frequently been
called upon to help western farmers in
coping with the rabbit pest In view of
the probable economic value Of rabbit
meat and fur in the coming few years,
the energies Of the farmers and ranch
men VII be directed to the conservation
of this important resource. Already a
number of establishments for collecting,
dressing, canning, and shipping rabbit
meat are in operation in western centers.
As in Australia the transition of wild
rabbit in this country from its status as
a pest to source Of profit is assured it is
believed.

The Fourth Loan Is The Fight.
ing Loan.

AS the campaign for the Fourth Lib
berty Loan approaches the American
Army in France moves on towards Berlin.
Under our own leaders the great
American Army has won notable vic
tory.
The Fourth Loan must be a great
success. The Fourth Liberty Loan is a
fighting loan.
When our soldiers on the battle front
are Drawing death, each one offering to
make the supreme sacrifice for his coun-
try and the great cause, we who remain
safely at home surely should give them
every support should make every
sacrifice to strengthen them If we can
not fight ourselves we can make our
dollars fight. ...'..
1t is great cause for which America
is engaged in this war; it is great
struggle in which the very hope OF the
world is bound up that is being waged in
Europe and on the high seas, 1t is an
honor to have part in it and all Ameri-
cans, all of their lives, will be proud
of the part they had in it or ashamed of
their failure to do their part.
The Fourth Loan is fighting loan.
Every subscriber to the Loan strikes a
blow for Liberty for Victory,

Retail Sale of Standard Wheat
Flour.

The new regulations supersede the
$3.50 rule. The retail dealer selling
standard wheat -four is required to
carry in stock either barley -four, corn
meal, or corn -four, and with every sale
of wheat flour must sell a combination
of some one or more of these in the pro-
portion of one pound of substitute to
each pounds of wheat flour, No
dealer may force any other substitutes
in combination upon the consumer, and
these substitutes must conform to the
standards fixed by the United States
Food Administration,
There are some localities where other
substitutes are available and which
retailers may wish to carry. In order
to meet this situation the following
hours may be sold in such combination
in lieu of the above flours if the consumer
so demands, at the ratio of l pound to
each pounds Of wheat flour; that is,
feterita flour and meals, rice -four, oat
-four kaGr -four, milo -four, peanut -four,
sweet potato -four and buckwheat -four,
Pure rye flour or meal may be sold as
a substitute, but must be sold in proper
ton Of at least pounds Of rye with 3
pounds of wheat flour.
The foregoing rules apply to all GUS
tom and exchange transactions as well
as sales of flour to farmers unless mod
flied by special announcement of the
Federal Food Administrator Of the
State where the mill is located, acting
with the approval of the zone committee,

100000 BUTTONS FOR
FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN

Three million buttons for the
Fighting Fourth" Liberty Loan is the
order of the New England Committee
This is 500 more than were used In
the Third Loan, and the aim of the
Organization Is to see that every buy
er of bond in the Fourth Loan has a
Button and wears 1t.
No one thing brings home to the
people as whole the fact that all
members Of the community are TAX
ing share in the Loan more effec-
lively than the general and conspicu-
Gus wearing of the button. In many
communities and establishments a
1000 subscription was secured more
easily because of the open demonstra-
ton by the wearing Of buttons that
participation was reaching every per-
son.
The new button is smaller than
the earlier ones, but equally effective.
On dark blue ground Is carried a
flag of red with four blue stripes, the
Honor Flag of the Loan, and the
words Fourth Liberty Loan.
The buttons will be distributed by
Banks, bond statesmen, industrial es-
adjustments, and all places where
subscriptions are taken. They will
be ready in ample supply the open
ing day of the Loan. Sept. 2Sth and
free and constant wearing of the but
tons will be the best and most con-
vincing proof of aid in placing the
Loan.

An Emergency Ration

The Quartermaster Corps has worked
out special reserve emergency ration
for the Army, consisting of hard bread
corn beef, corn beef hash, roast beef
salmon, sardines, soluble coffee, sugar
and salt, to be packed in camouhagec
galvanized-iron tins and Theoretically
sealed against gas as we'll as moisture.
Wheat, meat, and sugar make UP
most of the menu of this lunch between
shots for the boys That is the reason
civilians are asked to eat war bread, tC
save the heavier cuts of beef, and tc
make our national allotments of sugar
60 round
The abundant American harvests
have brought riffs in the food cloud, it is
true. But now is the time for a national
reserve ration to make impossible any
such dire conditions as faced the allies
early last spring. Remember those
words of Lord Rhondda when he heard
our wheat supplies had been eaten up;
THE war is over; we are beaten"
America did her part then, and she
must do her part now by preparing
against any possible repetition of that
call of distress.

Dear Brother:
now sit myself down to drop you
few lines to let you know that am
well and hope these few lines will
find you the same. | enjoyed my
trip very much and had a nice time
coming over. There was eight of US
in one stateroom onsthe sboat. We
saw other ships on the water. We
are now in the third camp since we
landed over this side. We started
about two weeks ago and landed
about week ago. We were in Eng
land while. We were in two diff
ferent camps there and now we are
in France and we are altogether yet.
1t has rained about every day
since we left America, but we also
get little sunshine, we got enough
sunshine today to dry some clothes
that we washed Yesterday, so that
we are alright for few days more.
1t is raining now but do not think
it will rain all night. We are going
to the Y. M. G. A. hut and canteen.
We were out for little walk today
Some of the boys are making up
their beds so as to go to bed to get
all the sleep they can. | think we
will go to another rest camp before
we strike our stopping place, which
! think we will strike before long,
When | get to thinking or dream
ing about home it makes me kind of
homesick but | do not care much
about that. | do not care much
about these rest camps there are too
many of them to suit me. We have
our pack, rifle and overcoats to carry
which get kind of heavy when we
are on long walk at full pack.
Well l don't think of any more at
this time. so will close. Good night.

Extremes seem to be a political
fashion this year, for instance: A
wet" advocate heading a dry"
republican platform, and a dry"
advocate heading the wet demo-
cratic platform. This possibly is a
little premature for the party plat
forms in Vermont are not as yet
adopted, but unless traditions and
signs fail, this will be the outcome.
For all this seeming unsuitableness
there is, however, no call for voters
to desert either party. Mr.. Clement
has won the republican nomination
honestly and fairly, and because his
views on questions of the day differ
from the party there is no call for
individual voters to desert the party.
A governor is not party in the
sense of political organization, and
in accepting the nomination of a
party he must abide by the princi-
pies of that party as expressed by
its majority. This Mr.. Clement has
done, and the Herald believes that
whatever action the party adopts
Mr.. Clement will see carried out, or
in other words he will with the same
forcefulness be advocated his indi.
vidual opinion, carry out the ex-
pressed wish of the party of his
choice. A strong evidence of this
is given in Mr.. Clements resigning
the presidency of the Local Option
league, and it shows conclusively
that he intends to give his service to
his party and state unhampered by
any personal obligations as head of
that organization. Is not this fair
and honorable? How many of us
would thus subserve our helpfulness
to personal beliefs under like circum-
stances? Republicans should stand
together for there is no call for them
to vote otherwise than straight
party ticket at the coming state
election.
