WE HAVE THE FOOD.

The news from the farm is as
cheering as the news from the front.
There is hardly crop OF any i'm
portance that is not turning out pet
ter than was expected, and in nearly
every case the produce is above nor
NAL.
Spring and winter wheat combined
will be about 92O,OU0,OOO bushels, the
second largest crop in our history.
Corn. though nominally 44O,OOO,OOO
bushels less than last years huge
production may still equal it in
value. because it is OF better quality.
The 2,7S0,000,0O0 bushels will provide
plenty for beast and man, and help
in the accumulation of a wheat sur
plus. The oat crop is the third larg-
est on record, almost equal to last
years crop, and OF unusually high
quality. The tobacco crop is the
largest ever grown. Barley. pota-
toes. rice, cotton, apples and sugar
beets all look better than they did
a month ago. In no vital crop Is
there anything approaching a fail
ure.
We have nothing to waste, but we
have enough Tor the essential needs
OF ourselves and our allies.
Nature is with us again, and again
the American farmer has done his
duty nobly. In food, as well as in
men and materials, we are now
ready for the big effort that is to
win the war as we want to win ii.

The recommendations OF the local
commercial organizations, the Ro-
tary Club, Lions Club, the daily
newspapers or any group OF repre-
sentative citizens will be acceptable

left the appointment of secretary

able to select an executive commit
tee or advisory board, composed OF

tivities, and the principal function
OF this body, in addition to further
ing the work of securing members
for the club, should be to combat all
pro-German propaganda.
When the organization is complet-

LAWS TO PROTECT
WAR BABIES SOON
BE FACT IN AMERICA

Chicago, Oct, l7,-Legislation for
the protection OF war babies will
be sought during the coming year
by the American Humane Society
which has just concluded its annual
convention here.
"Illegitimacy," said w, O. Still
man. one of the leaders in the organ
ization, SIS an increasing factor in
social development. The war has
brought into being generation OF
little ones without names.
"Illegitimate children have ac-
quirred comparatively few rights
since the day that lIagar and lsh-
mael were turned out to wander in
the desert of Beersheba,' said Eu-
gene Morgan OF Columbus, Ohio.
Here is the program the society
proposed for the redemption OF war
babies:
Make it impossible for the puta-
tive father to escape with a light
fine.
Give the child the fathers name
and an equal share in inheritance.
Give the child equal education
rights
Add no punishment TO the sin OF
the mother.
Treat the putative father, ii he
shows determined inclination to
escape all the sequences. as a
criminal dangerous to society and
not as a petty thief

work solving the question OF illegit-
innate children and the same queS-
ton will be one of the important
phases OF reconstruction in America

ization

hall OF war babies, the society will
not slacken its efforts toward the

SNIPER
WEARS A COSTUME
OF GREEN BURLAP

Behind the American Lines IN
France, Sept. 29.-(Correspond-
ence OF The Associated Press:)-
The American sniper wears IAN
tastic suit OF green burlap with
tufts OF rafia, or Madagascar grass
sewed thickly all over the coats
and trousers. The coat has head
piece with eye-holes so that the
snipers head is completely envel-
oped.
American troops in the Nosges
have used these camouflage suits
with great effect. The grass-cov-
cred burlap is merged into the grass
through which the sniper crawls
and even when only twenty-five
feet distant his presence cannot be
detected.
These suits are made by French
women in the American camoutlage
station behind the lines.
The disappearing building IS
one OF the curious contrivances OF
the camouflage artists here. The
building is the size of two-story
frame cottage. Viewed close at
hand it stands out plainly enough,
and even at 100 feet the cottage is
quite clear. But at the distance
from which the enemy observations
would be made, or from an airplane
at 5000 feet, the building does in
fact disappear. This is done by
the planting in great wavy lines OF
green and brown which, at a dis
tance, obliterate the straight lines
OF roof, gable, windows and doors

THE BASEST OF ALL HUN
pJ OTIS

In no case has Germany given
greater proof OF her dishonesty OF
purpose, and the craftiness OF her
plans. than in her present wholesale
destruction Of the French towns ~
ing in her path OF retreat
This destruction is one OF the gray
est phases OF the war, and Ger
many's attitude with regard to 1t
will be one Of the most serious queS-
tions in any negotiations for peace.
TO comprehend the situation fully
it must first be clearly understood
that Germany has no more right
TO be in France or Belgium than
has the thief in the honest citizen $
home. Her presence ther Is Just as
nxcusable and outrageous.
Now that the Germans have been
forced to retreat, they are taking
with them not only the silver and
household goods, the objects OF
art and every scrap OF metal, but
also all the modern machinery from
the factores the tools and impIe-
ments OF the former, and finally
even the people themselves.
This is no sheer eXhibition OF
bafiled rage, no Wanton breaking
up OF what she is unable TO hold.
1t is something lar deeper and
more significant. II is a deliber-
ate scheme, carefully planned, to
leave France commercially paralyzed
ior years to come.
At ;he identical minute when She
pleads for peace, She is system
atcally projecting war lar into the
future
If she can obtain an armistic, She
figures on retiring 20 her own
country-Savcd to her Whoie-for ii
must be remembered that thus far
German territory J., almost a. un-
scathed by war actually within its
borders as is the Cnitcd States.
Safely back in Germany, and
vastly richer by all she has stolen
from France, She prepares to set
about rebuilding such OF her ior-
tunes as have fallen, and, having
eliminated France from competition
in the markets OF the world, to ere
ate the greater demands for her own
wares.
TO this France justly. and openly
before the world. makes protest an
nouncing that France will never be
satisfied with the mere driving Of
Germany back into her borders,
and asking but that the payment in
tull OF the greatest debt one nation
ever rolled upon against another be
an infleXible demand OF the allies
in any continuation OF The war or
negotiation OF peace.

THE KEYSTONE OF PEACE.

There is much talk OF recon
struction' lately But most OF it Is
general and vague. There is not
enough recognition OF the biggest
and most important; Job that has TO
be done in shaping the new world
that all idealists expect to grow out
of, and compensate Tor, the world
war.
That Job is the establishment OF
league OF nations TO enforce peace.
President Wilson has spoken OF
it repeatedly. 1t is without doubt,
in his mind. the keystone OF the arch
of peace. The American people are
familiar with the idea, and almost
unanimously in favor of it. OF all
American policies injected into
the war, this is. perhaps. the most
typically American.
Yet most Americans are content
to leave it in the realm OF abstrac-
ton. The peoples with whom we
are allied agree to it in 4 passive sort
of way, instead OF seizing upon it
as the most vital thing in the whole
allied war program The allied gov
ernments, while giving their aca-
demic assent, do not appear to be ac
tually engaged in shaping any con
crete plan for putting IT into effect
In time OF war. prepare for peace

DRUMSTICKS.

When the allied warships entered
the harbor OF Beirut, the chief sea-
port OF Syria, they found the town
evacuated. The Turks had fled.
Which reminds OF us OF little
poem:
"What dost thou think OF drum
sticks" :"
! asked The barnyard bird.
And as he slowly strutted by
He answered with th, word:
"They're good to eat, and good 10
beat
But sure as | am living,
They re best to run away on,
The week before Thanksgiving"
Nevertheless and Notwithstanding,
Turkey will be served at that Allied
Thanksgiving dinner, along with
Iunish pork and Bulgarian bully
