OTHER VIEW POINTS

The work of registering school boys for work on the farms during the summer season is being organized with some energy and probably with great CT skill born of experience and study than was available last year. The need of crops in excess of anything the country has ever produeed--great- ly in excess-is thoroughly oppreciat- ed by the government and it's Food administration, and the fact has been impressed upon the people conyinc- ingly. It looks as though the youth of the land who usually spend the

The Sheep and Dog Question.
 Mr Editor: According to a recent article which appeared in the paper on the dog and sheep question, it strikes me that there seems to be more or less of propaganda anG equally as bad in it's line as the Ger man propaganda which is so vicious lat present throughout this nation and other nations of the world. It would appear that there is an effort being made to reach the next legislature and |endeavor to have it pass some vicious dog law such as was passed in New York State. whereby. if a dog ha,<Den-

Have you noticed the German way of dealing with the Russian: bosheviki when caught with arms in their hands in defence of their country. At the first jump five hundred were hung in q puUfic square and every one taken prisoner is to be hanged be- cause they are foes to property and its rights. This offensive doctrine can. not be properly suppressed except by the annihilation of those who ad : voeate it, from the German point of view. If the Entente should take this same view of those who are foes to freemen and personal liberty, what would become of the Kaiser and the seventy-fve autoerats who are re- sponsib1e for tiiis war and the presefit
 nations? Perhaps in such extremes
 the German method is the only de-
 pendable method.

Stupid ProcIamations of German Com

Among BeIgians-Says Stories
of Atrocities Are All True.

New York.-Up to the entrance OF
the United States in the war against
Germany, approximately $4,000 Bel
gian civilians had been shot, taken
into Germany as prisoners, or fined for
offending the German authorities In
Belgium I'm various ways, according to
Hugh Gibson, former secretary OF the
American legation at Brussels and at
present chief of the division of foreign
intelligence of the state department,
described with many poignant details
the sufferings of the Belgians and the
irrepressible and buoyant spirit of the
people, which, he said, has not been
quenched by the Teuton invaders.
The stupid proclamations Of the Ger
man commandants posted daily and
oftener on the buildings and boardings
of the streets of Belgian cities caused
the population considerable amuse-
ment at frst, Mr.. Gibson said, until
it was announced from German head
quarters that any one seen laughing
around an official bulletin would be Sc
verely punished. Thereafter persons
reading the bulletins would muftie
themselves up in neckcloths that con-
cealed half their faces and laugh to
themselves.
All the Belgian newspapers were
suppressed, and the population re-
ceived its news from publications is
sued by the Germans, which told Of
their military victories, Mr.. Gibson de-
clared.

SHOULD EAT MORE POTATOES

need of grain for shipment to our SOL
diers and to the soldiers and civilians
of other countries engaged with us in
the war against Germany.
The use of more potatoes for lunch
con sh ,uld be simple matter, in the
opinion of specialists of the depart
ment of agriculture, since practically
all Americans like potatoes and since
there are numerous ways in which the
tubers may be prepared to avoid a
sameness in the diet. Potatoes, even
in their simplest forms-baked and
boiled-make good luncheon dishes.
They may also be used for making a
variety of dishes, such as creamed
and escalloped potatoes, with or with
out cheese; stuffed potatoes, potato
croquettes, and so on. Combination
dishes, such as hash, stews, meat pies
with potato crust, and so on, in which
a considerable amount of potato Is
used with other foods, may constitute
practically an entire luncheon, being
hearty enough to serve for the purpose
with little salad or fruit or sweets.

BELG|ANS EASILY OUTW|T GERMANS

''In spite of this fact, the Belgians,
under the very nose of the governor
general, published clandestine newspa-
pers," he continued. "The governor
general would get his copy regularly.
Sometimes he found it under his plate,
sometimes it came into his home with
the vegetables, sometimes it was
mailed to him in an official envelope

offered 100000 marks for information

Washington.-The eating Of more
potatoes for supper, or for luncheon,
if the family Is accustomed to have din
ner at night, is suggestion OF the
United States department of agricul-
ture, in order that the tremendous crop
of tubers produced in the United
States this year may be utilized as
fully as possible and spoilage avoided.
Such increased use should, at the same
time, bring about saving Of grain,
since one common result of eating
more potatoes is the eating Of less
wheat bread, which is a reasonable
suggestion when one remembers that
both of them are used as a source Of
starch in the diet. This reduction In
grain consumption is desirable. the de-
partment points out, and there is great
