North American Moose.

The moose is the largest living rep
resentative of the deer family, and Is
found in North America. The elk is
native of northern Europe and is con-
sidered by many biologists to be the
same species, except that it IS smaller.
4 full grown moose may be six and
one-half to seven feet tall at the shout
der and weigh 1000 to 1900 pounds.
On account of endurance and strength
the moose is frequently symbolic, per-
sons of unusual power being said to be
sAs strong as bun moose"

THE PEOPLES SONG
Rev. Jacob Long in the Milwaukee
Journal

Peace seemed assured the world wide
Ger,
And wars were doomed to rage no
more,
When Germany, without just cause,
Defying treaties and the laws,
Who months before our friendship
claimed
And all the while at treachery aimed,
AS pirates struck in fendish glee,
With submarine hid in the sea
And sank the Lusitania where
None came the innocent to spared
When foes, grown bold, rapine would
wreak
On Belgium's maids and wives, and
weak,
Defenseless, hopeless ones of France,
The nations reused them from their
trance.
Columbia, as in days gone by,
Her eagle swooping from the sky,
Awoke to crush where'er they be
The minions of autocracy.
And where proud royalty lies dead
To plant democracy instead!
Then cease your clamoring, we who
pirate
Of peril to our country's fate!
Our valiant lads by millions throng
To meet the foes and right the wrong.
We've never failed, yet will not brag,
But passing on beneath our flag
In answer to the bugle's call.
If some of US in battle fall
TITS for humanity and God
That our best blood has drenched the
sod.

Can With Corn .Sirup, Says
Department of Agriculture

Corn strip may be used in canning
and in making jellies, jams and mar
malades and fruit buffers. Varying
amounts of corn strip are used with
sugar. The strip gives modified fla
vor to products so it should be tried
out in small quantities at first to suit
the family taste. 1t combines mot
satisfactorily with strong favored
fruits such as pineapple and cherries.
The amount used must be determined
by the kind Of fruit and the strength
Of the strip.

Must Not Relax

The recent triumphs of allied arms,
however glorious and encouraging in
themselves, must not be misinterpret-
ed. The war is not over and an i'm
mediate victory is not assured. The
great danger-and it is a dangers
that Americans will relax their eff
forts, especially their vigilance in
food economy. 1t is imperative that
strict conservation of all food must
be rigidly maintained as long as
the war lasts.
There are now about 1,750,000
American troops in Europe and by
next summer it is intended to have
3,50O,000 This means that vast
quantities of food supplies must be
shipped from America in ever in
creasing quantities until at is over
over there"
Vermont people have responded en-
Enthusiastically to the requests of the
United States food administration
and now The government issues a
warning that there be no stacking
up of the conservation measures. A
relaxing of vigilance will mean a
longer struggle and longer casual
ty list; a persistent adherence in
economy of all food supplies will EN-
able the allies to continue vigorous
prosecution of the war until the
great cause of Democracy shall have
been won.
There is no prospect of proper
ending of the war before the cam
paign of thes ummer of 1919. Food
is ammunition and America is the
last food resource.-Brattleboro Re-
former.

The Best Investment

The tests of good investment are
safety and an adequate return.
United States Liberty Bonds offer
both. No nation has so great natural
resources at its command to secure
it's liabilities. We are the creditor
nation of the world, and practically
all the other leading nations are our
debtors, so that back of our bonds
stand not only our own great ma
terial resourc es on this continent, but
in large measure the obligations of
the other strong nations of the world,
whose financial promises have always
been met. If per cent for money
deposited in a savings bank Of linn
tied capital is considered a safe in
vestment and sufficient return to in
duce thousands daily to invest their
money in that manner, can there be
any question that money loaned the
United States at Az per cent consti-
tutes vastly safer investment and
gives such an adequate return as
should induce US to put our money
into the Liberty Loan?
But it is not alone in a pecuniary
sense that Liberty Bonds are the best
investment. We are receiving a
larger return than mere money. Our
fathers laid great stress upon three
things as being essential to the well
fare of mankind, viz: Life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness. Ger
many and her associates count these
things as naught. From the trst
inception of the war, which they de-
liberately brought into existence,
they have ruthlessly taken life, have
made liberty in lands under their con-
troll a by-word and mockery, and
have caused the pursuit of happiness
to be of less meaning than by-gone
dream.
If Germany were successful, our
property would be destroyed, our
lands taken, our money seized, our
women ravaged, or children starved,
and all the other denominations that
Satanic ingenuity could conceive
would be practiced upon US. We in
vest our money to prevent these
things, and surely if we received no
other return, the defeat of such In
fanny would be ample. Self-preser-
walton, it is said, is the first law OF
nature. We are practicing it wher
we invest our money to defeat Prus-
sian autocracy, whose aim is the sub
jugation of all peoples, and whose
envious eyes had long ago marked us
as an early victim.
We get in return for our invest
ment the increased safety and the
greater likelihood of the return, Of
our boys who are fighting for US, BY
supplying them with food, clothing
and ammunition necessary to enable
them to do their work with the mini
mum of danger; we get return Of
men, women and children saved from
a life worse than death; we get {
return of houses and lands restored
to those from whom they were un
lawfully taken; we get return in thu
succor of the wounded, the rescue O
the sick, the feeding of the starving

This Country Now Produces
Indigo Made From Coal Tar

Indigo is now being made from coal
tar in this country. At Midland, Mich,
1000 pounds of 20 per cent paste are
produced daily, reports Popular
Science Monthly. All the tariff bills
of this nation, commencing with the
tariff of March 3, 1888, and including
the tariff of October 8. 1913, placed
indigo on the free list. Not until Sep
TENDER 9, 1916, was bill passed put
ting a duty on it. It was the first
schedule that braved the anger Of the
German dyemakers.
