War Savings Committee Of Illinois.
General John j. Pershing, COM
mander in chief of the American
forces in France, is to get a COM
plete list of all the residents of Cook
County who are standing behind him
in his fight to ave the world from
(a~utocracy.
Before the end Of the year Gen.
Pershing will have two million Sold
|iers fighting under him. The War
Savings Committee is determined
that Cook County shall furnish a
hacker for each of these two million
soldiers, and to spare. !
Every man, woman and child who
enrolls as a hacker of Pershing's
army will have his or her name in
scribed on a roll of honor which will
go first to President Wilson and
later be sent to France by the war
department. This roll of honor will
be miles long and will weigh tons,
but its great bulk will not prevent
its being sent abroad as the greatest
message Of cheer which ever went to
an army commander in a foreign
land.
The honor roll will be circulated
in sections, just like a petition for a
dry referendum or any other policy
question is circulated. Later it will
be pasted together in one immense
roll for shipment abroad.
The honor roll will be used during
Pershing week, Aug. 18th to 22nd.
1t will be circulated by mail carriers,
by thousands of women volunteers in
street, club, bank and building booths,
by secretaries of tens Of thousands
War Savings Society, BY the new
organization of women postal direc-
tors, and in numerous other ways.
No one in Chicago or anywhere in
Cook County will be missed. ANY
one who purchases one War Savings
Stamp will be entitled to have his
name Inscribed on the roll, but space
will be left to show just how many
stamps he did buy during the Perish
ing Week Drive.
Information as follows will be
printed on each roll, so that anyone
may know just how much aid he is
giving to the American forces in
France:
1. Investment in one War Saving
Stamp will provide the government
with funds for purchase 100. rifle
bullets.
2. Investment in two War Savings
Stamps will feed a soldier for a week
3. Investment in five War Saw
ings Stamps will provide a soldier
with a rifle.
4. The money loaned by the man
who invests in twenty War Savings
Stamps will buy a light machine gun
S. The person-who invests in forty
War Savings Stamps will provide
the funds to arm a soldier, clothe
him, equip him from head to foot
and start him overseas.
In every store and every office
where War Savings Stamps are sold
these honor rolls will be provided
No one will be able to miss them
Each purchaser of a stamp will b

WAR PERIOD RICH
IN DISCOVERIES

That medical science. is not asleep
during the war is proven by the
manner in which the possibilities of
fered by the discovery of Irogen were
instantly realized and developed for
the good of humanity.
Irogen, it is claimed, is discovery
for the weak. Weak nerves, weak
muscles, weak stomachs-in fact,
weark organs in general are greatly
strengthened by it, and those who
have taken it claim that even weak
compilations, pale and sallow, take
on the ruddy appearance of health
under its influence.
Warning is given, however, that,
owing to its we'll known flesh-build-
ing powers, Irogen should not be
taken by anyone who does not desire
to add flesh.
Note-Irogen, the product men
toned above, is now on sale in Union
City by divers Drug Store; in Ken
ton by Gem Pharmacy, and by the
leading druggists in practically every
city, town and village in the State.

Good Livestock Paws.

, The crisis confronting owners Of
livestock is certain to create ,effici-
ency in our meat production. 1t will
not only force us to build more silos
and SOW more winter pastures, but
it will compel us to breed our cows
and our sows and our ewes to better
sires tnan VIC have been in the habit
of doing.
ALI of this will be caused by the
continued high cost of feedstuffs.
Scrub stock cannot proftably be fed
high-priced feed.
On the other hand, however, Ten
nesseans are confronted with the
fact that meat and meat products are
bringing record prices on the mark
cts, which means that good livestock
is more profitable than ever before.
This is aptly put as follows: 1.-THE
higher the price of feed the more ex-
pensive it is to keep poor livestock.
The higher the price of human food
the more profitable it is to keep good
livestock"

The One American Idea.

AS our boys in kin or friendship
go into this war by joining the ranks
of those who use guns as they fight,
we realize all the more that we, too,
must fight by producing more and
more food crops. The one idea,
whether at home or not, is that of
winning the war for democracy.
The producers have been doing
their share. They will continue to
do so. And as they learn better what
to do they will be more successful
in their results.
The call of leaders as they look at
the worldwide situations is that
more foodstuffs be produced and that
more be saved. This docs not mean
that the organization of the farm is
to be changed, all realize that this
may be q war covering many years
and if our agriculture were to be
disorganized for this present year,
the years that are to come would be
inadequatedly handled. We must
build our farm for permanent useful
ness.
And in this connection, it may be
said that community organizations
for agriculture and all war work may
well be considered from permanent
point of view. We shall need much
food whether the wGr lasts or not,
and certainly if the wsr lasts.

We so stated once in the paper
under another administration and
we repeat the statement now that
the sprinkling of the streets should
be done by the city. That the streets
should be full of flying dust and
dirt, and an admixture of expectora-
ton, etc., during the epidemic of in
fuenza is inexcusable. The imprac-
ticability of private contract for
sprinkling is that the contractor
wants his pay regularly, whether
wet or dry, and under a system of
general taxation this could be prop
erly adjusted. One, or two, of the
problems in Union City is dust and
weeds, and we trust there is some
way to satisfactory solution.
