Supervisor Rem. Williams, with a
force of men, is on the mountain road

sheepmen will respect it we can have
a good road, but thus far it seems
that those who have gone up the
mountain have tried to do all the
damage to it they could.

MINNESOTA ANNUAL
:.
RAT TAX yS3,000,e0e 90

Minnesota's rats probably cost
farmers and others $3,0o0,O00 annu-
e
government estimate Of 500, ,Oo0. .o00
for the entire United States. In
other words, it requires the constant
labor of 2 men out of every 1000 to
make up the loss caused by rats.
This great waste may be very
greatly reduced. For this reason
the division Of entomology and econ
omic zoology of the Minnesota col
lege of agriculture, University farm
St. Paul, is seeking to encourage the
people of Minnesota to begin cam
paign against the rats by building
rat-proof structures for the housing
of foodstufs and by thorough-going
trapping and poisoning. -
F. L. Wasburn, who has the cam
paign in charge, urges Minnesota's
people to keep all attractive food
away from the pests and to remove
litter and refuse that may give them
shelter: Communities wishing to put
on local campaigns for the destruc-
tion of these expensive pests should
correspond with Mr.. Washburn at
University Farm, St. Paul.

Tho Human Body comparod With

# Nearly all Of the foods taken in
are used to some extent as fuel. Ev-
en- the protein which, as it's chief
work, builds up the body substance,
is burned Indirectly, when larger
amount of it is taken in than can be
used for making new substances and
repairing used-upt substances. How
ever, the protein which is burned is
not burned as protein, but as sugar.
When you consider that the foods
are all composed of the three ele-
ments of carbon, hydrogen and oxy-
gen, only in different arrangements
and with slightly varying additions,
it does not seem strange that one
should be converted into the" other.
in the body. The protein which can
not be used as protein-building ma
terial or as spgar-fuel is reduced to
various fragments and then stored
in the body as fat for reserve fuel.
Carbohydrates are burned as sug-
ars. They burn rapidly, and make a
| fire in short time. However, they
cannot yield the strong steady heat
Of fats, Sugars are like the light,
! soft; woods with which we start a
| fire. They burn quickly with a hot
| flame and produce a fire Immediate
ly. In building a fire we make
foundation of light woods, shavings,
chips, etc. When that is well start
ed we pile on the hard wood, which
is enabled to get good start from
quickly burning light wood. Then we
have strong and lasting fire. That
is just the way we build and regu-
late our fire in the body stove. The
sugars are the kindling which burns
so rapidly and starts the strong,
steady blaze of the hard woods, or
fats. When the body needs bright,
quick fire, which will yield energy at
once, we can use sugar, and find that
as a; result we are enabled to do our
particular task without fatigue.
However, in winter when we must
look forward to strong steady fire
to keep us warm and able to accom-
plish things we must build our fire
=caref the soft first
and then add, the hard woods (fats.)
That done, cold weather will not
need to keep us indoors, and our
body engine will keep us fit and ac-
tive.
Every engine depends upon fuel of
some sort to supply it with the en-
ergy or power to run. Just as an
automobile needs gasoline, and
steam engine must have COAL the
body engine must have it's fuel. It
is really sugar and fat burning en-
gine. The fats and sugars are burn
ed to supply the heat and power to
keep the body active and working.
Just as the automobile could not
travel so rapidly over the many,
many miles if it had no gasoline to
burn and the steam engine could not
run the machine and do all the work
it does if it had no coal to make the
stean1j neither could the body live
and do all the muscular and mental
work it does if the sugar and, fat
which it takes in did not burn and
furnish energy.-Minnesota Public

[k,Ne has come. But peace is not
idle.aess; peace is not sleep, peace is
not inactivity. Peace is order; peace
is Righteousness; peace is develop
ment and progress. When the crash
and chaos of creation were brought
to peace and order, when the forces
Of the universe were harnessed for
development and progress, God said
not, let us sleep, but LET there be
Light" The fury Of war has ended,
and the forces of life must be mar
shalled for development and not for
disorder; for construction not for
destruction. We need to hear again
a voice commanding "Let there be-
light light upon the problems of
life, light upon the path which men
must tread toward finer and mob
ler civilization. -. i.
1t is significant that Germany's
armistice delegates were received by
Marshal Foch in a railroad, car in
which the commanderin-chief of the
allied armies had headquarters. He
was moving forward, ever forward
We cannot sit still, we must move
ahead. Victory flies on the wings Of
the morning. Gods truth keeps
marching on. Progress is the order
of the universe and the law of life.
Our sacrifices are in vain if we have
not moved forward since August,
1914. Our victory is a hollow one if
this is not a better world to live in
than it was when the war broke out
The war was waged to destroy au-
tocracy, and not merley to change
the form in which autocracy might
manifest itself. We did not~6ght to
destroy the d :jAand
establish the brutal right of fmobs.
Bolshevism cannot be permitted in a
world that banished kaiserism. We
have abolished the autocratic rule of
kings and have established the SOW
ereign right of the people, but the
rule Of the people must be just and
righteous or it will become as op-
pressive as the rule of Kaiser or a
Gar.
When William II took up the
reigns of government as King Of
Prussia and Emperor of Germany, he
declared: There is only one master
in this country. am he and l will
not tolerate another. There is only
one law, my law, the law which
myself lay down." Never again will
king or emperor utter such words
as these, and d~never will the spirit
that prompted them be tolerated in
this republic. We have come too
close in recent years to a temper of
this kind in our own government.
The unrestrained will of President
is as dangerous as the unrestrained
will of king. and it is fortunate
thing that this tendency met with a
decisive rebuke at the recent elec-
tion. We were willing to fight to
make the world safe for democracy
but we were not willing to vote to
make the country safe for Demo-
Gratis.

THE ANvIL-cHoRUs LEADER.

If Mr.. Roosevelt has not exploded
about something or other in connec-
ton with the terms Of the armistice
before this goes to press, we admon-
ish our readers to be patient a little
longer. Either the terms of Foch
will not be sufficiently drastic or
President Wilson will spoil the broth
or something else will happen to
give the @bombastic colonel of the
Rough Riders an excuse to beat the
air and otherwise promote his can
didacy for 1920, s# / s2s:.ss. ssz.&
5 We thought for a while that the
News Tribune had found the Eek
=cuse" for the expected Rooseveltian
outburst when it opined that 'John
j.. Pershing might make as good a
president as he has made a general"
Perhaps General Pershing is due to
get his from the colonel next. Who
can tell? Pershing is said to be a
Republican and, therefore, extremely
dangerous to Roosevelt. :.s
