FARIER IS LEARNING
THAT LIBERTY BONDS
ARE BEST SECURITIES
Patriotic, Was Always His, and Now
He Ia Developing Thrift and
Is Bond Holder.

Everything indicates that the farm.
ers of the Eighth Federal Reserve
District are going to beat all records
on the Fourth Liberty Loan subscrip-
ton. This Is the opinion Of a for.
mer Governor OF Illinois on his return
from an extensive Swing around the
circle"
~ have been making some In
ouiries," he said. " and / find that the
criticism Of the farmers for being a
little slow in understanding the rock.
bottom facts agout the First and Sec
ond Loans has lost all its point now
1--WE are apt to forget that people
close to the land readily fall into the
habit Of thinking in terms Of land
property. Whereas the city mar
early gets used to paper values and
feels very comfortable with a bundle
of collateral, the farmer had to be ed
ucated out of the notion that nothing
Is safe except the solid red dirt In the
fields-unless it be a mortgage rest
ing solidly on that ground.
Learn Bonds Value.
TT took the farmer a little time to
get accustomed to the notion OF Sc.
curities, outside OF mortgages on the
next quarter section Of land. 1t took
a little time to convince him that a
bond was not a highly perishable
thing. He thought It out and knows
better now.
by having Liberty Loan Bonds reg.
istered they are as safe as an up
land meadow. And besides that they
back up the army which is fighting
for the safety and protection Of every
thing in America. There isn't a foot
Of ground in America which would be
immune from the exactions Of an In
vading enemy If his armed forces get
q landing on shores. The farm
ers have come to a full realization
Of this, and you may be sure that
there Is going to be a hearty re.
spouse on the part OF the farmers
when the FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN
DRIVE begins. Liberty Loan Bonds
are the best insurance as well as the
best Investment. Trust Mr.. Farmer
to get the full force Of both PROPOSE
tons"

MINERS BUY LIBERTY BONDS
Illinois Union Officials Authorized to
Purchase 100000 Of Approach
Ina Fourth Issue.

The United Mine Workers Of Amer
lea for the Illinois district have SET
the pace for purchases Of Fourth Lib
erty Loan Bonds. At a meeting OF the
executive board for District No. IL,
which is the Illinois district. held at
Springfield recently, the officials OF
the organization were authorized to
purchase $500, 900 out Of the district
funds of the Illinois Miners Union.
President Frank harrington has been
active in support Of the u of the
successful conclusion of the war. by
active support of all governmental &C
ivities. This represents only a small
part that the Illinois Mine Workers
have done in the war activities. but 1t
Is indicative of the way in which all
organized labor will support.
Every labor organization throughout
the South and Southwest will do well
to emulate the action Of the mine
workers in investing all their avail
able funds In government securities.

OCTOBER 18TH,
"LIBERTY DAY"
Anniversary Of Americas Discovery to
Be Celebrated in Every Town and
Hamlet in the United States,

Plans TO have Oct. IL, the anniver.
sary of Americas discovery, set aside
officially al Liberty Day are under
way in Washington. according to a
telegram received at Liberty Loan
Headquarters.
A celebration In every school COM
munity of the United States, number.
ing nearly 300, 000, is being arranged
through the United States Bureau of
Education. A program Is to be car
ried out in every school building. city,
town and country. throughout the ma
ton on that day. There will be close
cooperation between school officials
and local Liberty Loan committees, in
order to obtain the best results from
the celebrations.
The Bureau Of Education will send
to each schoolhouse a suggestive pro-
gram-one in line with the discovery
Of America and the present program
of keeping America free. ever al the
cost of bloodshed. suffering and sac.
rifices of money and property. The
program will be suggestive only and
can be changed or another substituted
to meet the needs Of the particular
community.
THE discovery Of America opened a
new road to freedom" the telegram
telling of the plans suggests. 'but 1t
is u task to keep the road open"
1t is not necessary to state that Lib
erty Day would also be Liberty Loan
Day. The two could not be separated.
The Liberty Loans are put forth that
the freedom of America that came in
the wake Of Columbus and his fleet OF
ships may live on forever. On that
day we will also celebrate the freedom
Of other nations and peoples that we
are fighting to help maintain.

U. 5. MAY WITHHOLD
 GRAIN FROM HOLLAND
Prepared to Withdraw Offer of Ships for Transport-Accusa- tions Against America Kettle Washington Officials.

Washington, April 24.-The United States is prepared to withdraw it's re- cent offer of three ships to expedite grain to Holland, if the comment of Dutch newspapers, accusing the Unit ed States of duplicity in the condition that equal tonnage should leave Dutch harbors for America, is to be taken as indicative of the feeling of The Netherlands government and people.
 Officials today expressed disappoint- ment and surprise at the reception accorded the offer pf the United States, which was based on a pro- posal of the Dutch government to alleviate suffering from shortage of breadstuffs. The offer was supple mentary to President Wilson's state ment of March 20, when the Dutch ships were requisitioned, that 100000 tons of grain would be provided for Holland, if ships were sent to carry it.
 If Holland does not desire to take advantage of the offer to expedite the grain the original offer to furnish grain still holds, but the time con- sumed in sending ships from Holland to America will delay the relief the United States is ready to grant.

FRIDAY, APRIL 26, WILL
 BE LIBERTY DAY IN STATE

Little Rock, April 24.-Gov. Brough issued a proclamation yesterday, pur- suant to the request of President Will son and Secretary McAdoo, setting apart Friday, April 26, as Liberty Day. It is to be observed as half holiday throughout the state, and all the people are called upon to stand behind the President and the Liberty Loan organization in making it a gala day for the Liberty Loan drive in the state.
 Let our demonstrations of loyalty on that day." says the governor, "speak anew in unmistakable terms Arkansas determination to have more than it's full share in the winning of this great war.
 "As governor of the state, 1 urge that stores and all public places be closed iii the afternoon, so that the people in every city, town and hamlet throughout the state can join in the patriotic demonstrations and cere- monies which have been arranged for Liberty Day.
 q further urge all mayors and other local governing authorities that they cooperate in their localities in these celebrations so that Liberty Loan Day will go down as red letter day in the history of Arkansas pat riotism and sacrifice for the nations cause"

PROPOSAL THAT COUNTY
 JUDGES MUST BE LAWYERS

The county judges must be lawyers, at least thirty years old, with four years active experience at the bar, if a proposal adopted by committee is accepted by the constitutional con- vention. Heretofore, only a small per cent of the county judges of the state are practicing lawyers. Some of the committees seriously discussed the advisability of abolishing the county judges altogether, or divesting them of jurisdiction in probate cases, the same to be transferred to chan cery. The age of the prosecuting at torney has been advanced to 2S years.
