CLUB-RAISE A Pig

VIII you raise pig for sol
diers-you, boys and girls on the
farms; and you, boys and girls
in the suburbs who have space
available? The United States
department of agriculture is
seeking to enroll 100000 boys
and girls in pig clubs this year
Junior soldiers of the COM
missary." If $4,000 members of
pig clubs produced 100000
pounds of dressed pork last
year, how much pork will 20O,-
600 members turn in to the ma
tional larder in 1918? Every
boy or girl who can do so should
raise one or more pigs for Uncle
Sam and thus furnish the meat
supply for a soldier. Ask your
county agricultural agent about
this opportunity or write to the
director of extension at your
state agricultural college.

Many thousand families throughout
the land are now using no wheat prod
ucts whatever, except very small
amount for cooking purposes, and are
doing so In perfect health and satisfac-
ton. There IL no reason why all Of
the American people who are able to
cook in their own households cannot
subsIst perfectly well with the use of
less wheat products than one and one
half pounds a week, and we specially
ask the well-to-do households in the
country 70 follow this additional pro-
gramme In order that we may provide
the necessary marginal supplies for
those parts Of the community less able
to adapt themselves to so large a pro.
portion Of substitutes. \. ~

to supplement the voluntary co-opera-
ton OF the public by q further limita-
ton Of distribution, and we shall place
at once restrictions on distribution
which will be adjusted from time to
time to secure as nearly equitable dis
trIbution as possible. With the arrival
of harvest we should be able to relax
such restrictions. Until then we ask
for the necessary patience, sacrifice

means not more than TX pounds OF

the. Fastening of the day when right
md justice shall prevail to deliver
them from oppression.
CORDIALLY and sincerely yours,
WOODROW WILSON.
Reverend X. C. Bodholdt,
1915 Union Street, Racine, Wis"
The text of the petition presented to
the President by Americans hniling
from Slesvig and Endorsed by thou
sands of Americans of Danish descent
follows:
ITO the Presidents:
AT this moment of glorious dawn,
when a new day seems to be breaking
upon the world with promise of uni
vcrsal readjustment on the basis of
justice and right, we, American citi-
zens hailing from the German province
Slesvig. turn to you with an urgent ap-
peal that you bring before the world
the case of our oppressed kinsmen in
the old country
What they ask, and what we ask
on their behalf, implies no taking of
territory from one nation for the en-
largement or aggrandizement of an
other. While we know that Danes all
ever the world, without regard to po-
litical allegiance. are with US, our ap-
zeal Is made regardless of them and
without thought of gain or loss to
Denmark. All we ask for our race in
Slesvig, and all they ask for them
selves, is that they be granted the
right for which you have spoken with
such convincing power--the right of
determining for themselves whether
they are to give allegiance to Germany
or to Denmark.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1918-11-24

There can be no less question or
hesitation about the validity Of their
demand, because it was explicitly re-
served to them by Point 5 Of the
treaty made at Prague in 1855. Is 1t
not meet that to-day, when other
scraps of paper torn by Germany are
being pieced together again, this one as
we'll be made binding once more?
1--WE think that we know what you
feel about the subject so close to our
hearts-closer than. ever because we
ourselves are no longer victims OF the
tyranny against which we protest. We
can see more than one reason why,
until now, the name of Slesvig has not
been included In any one Of those
art-stirring utternnccs Of yours that
are being made the fundamental docu-
ments for the worlds rebuilding into
safe refuge for true democracy.
But now we believe that all such rea-
sons have lost their binding force.
Now, when the letters are falling from
the limbs of one nation and race after
another, the time has come, we be-
lieve, to add the name of Slesvig to
those that have a valid claim to the
support and sympathy not only Of this
great nation but of all the worlds VIC
torious democracies.
"As Americans we pray you: Speak,
and speak soon, in order that those of
our people who ara less fortunate than
we may be granted the simple ele-
mentary rights of elf-determinatnin
and self-government for the preserva-
ton of which we and our children are
now working at home and fighting
abroad"
