Farm And City Wages.

The employment division Of the Ohio
Council Of Defense recently compiled a
table comparing the items OF income and
expense in town and country.
This table shows that farm laborer
working on farm at $50 per month can
do fully as well as city laborer working
in the city at $i05 per month. A married
man working on the farm at $40 per
month fares better in financial way than
a married man working in the city at 500
per month. A married man working on
the farm at $40 per month can save $50
Of his wage for Liberty Bonds while the
married man working in the city at 500
per month Is able to save only $3.50 for
Liberty Bonds
The apparent difference between farm
and city wages is reconciled by a high ex-
pense against city income and low ex-
pense against farm income. The city
worker has to pay out money at every turn
while the farm worker has free house, Gar
den. fuel and many privileges which make
for saving.
As the farmer must provide these extras
just accounting will give a reasonable
wage value to all privileges and credit them
as part Of the wage that the farmers
have to pay for labor. 1t is a mistake.
therefore. to conclude that farmers do not
pay good wages. If the purchasing power
Of the farm wage is taken into account.
farm labor receives a higher wage than
city labor--American Fruit Grower.

Secretary McAdoo's message to the heads
OF the various labor organizations involved
in the threatened strike among railroad
men is right to the point. Striking against
Uncle Sam in wartime is serious business
and should be treated seriously. Further
more. however remote it may be from the
fact, any such movement on the face of it
lays those who participate in 1t open to
the suspicion Of responding to pro-German
propaganda. This may be done through
stupidity as well as perversity. But the
one sno more excusable than the other, in
these days Of pressing need that every
resource be modified and utilized to the
limit to win the war

President Urges Thrift Upon All.

President Wilson has issued a procla
nation calling upon the American people
to buy only those things which are essen
tial to health and efficiency. and to volun-
teer on or before June 28, national thrift
day. to invest systematically in war saw
ing stamps or other government securities.
His proclamation says:
This war is one Of nations, not of arm
les, and all of our one hundred million
people must be economically and indus
trially adjusted to war conditions II this
nation is to play Its full part in the con-
fict. The problem before us is not prima-
rily financial problem, but rather prob
lem Of increased production Of war essen-
tials and the saving of the materials and
labor necessary for the support and equip
ment OF our Army and Navy. Thoughtless
expenditure Of money for non-essentiaIs
uses up labor Of men, the products Of the
farm. mines and factories, and overburdens
transportation, all Of which must be used
to the utmost and at their best for war
purposes.
The great results which we seek can be
obtained only by the participation of every
member Of the nation, young and old, in a
national concerted thrift movement. |
therefore urge that our people everywhere
pledge themselves. as suggested by the
Secretary OF the Treasury, to the practice
Of thrift; to serve the government to their
utmost in increasing production in all
heids necessary to the winning of the war
TO conserve food and fuel and useful ma
terials OF every kind to devote their labor
only to the most necessary tasks; and to
buy only those things which art essential
TO individual health and efficiency; and
that the people, as evidence Of their loyalty,
invest all they can save in liberty bonds
and war savings stamps.
THE securities issued by the Treasury
Department are so many Of them within
the reach Of every one that the door of
opportunity in this matter is wide open to
all Of us. To practice thrift in peace times
is a virtue and brings great benefit to the
individual at all times; with the desperate
need Of the civilized world today for ma
terials and labor with which to end the
war the practice Of individual thrift is
patriotic duty and necessity.
Il appeal to all who now own either
liberty bonds or war savings stamps to
continue to practice economy and thrift
and to appeal to all who do not own gov
eminent securities to do likewise and pur-
chase them. to the extent Of their means.
The man who buys government securities
transfers the purchasing power Of his
money to the United States government
until after this war. and to that same
degree does not buy in competition with
the government.
Il earnestly appeal to every man, woman
and child to pledge themselves on or be-
fore the 2Sth Of June to save constantly
and TO buy as regularly as possible the
securities Of the government. and to do
this as far as possible through member
ship in war savings societies. The 2Sth
OF June ends this special period of enlist
ment in the great volunteer army Of pro-
ductiOn and saving here at home. May
there be none unenlisted on that day."

That Washington city medical director
who is accused of boarding food is GER
tainly person of very catholic tastes in
his enjoyment of the pleasures Of the table
as well as firm believer in the virtues of
canned goods His list OF supplies suggests
the epicure, but his judgment in storing
up five cans Of German sausage cannot be
commended. He should have been more
patriotic. Speaking seriously, an officer of
the Government who would thus defy the
law should be severely punished LenI-
ency in his case would tend to encourage
a similar selfish course in others.
