Character and Credit.

J. P. Morgan once said "Character
is what credit is based on. Character
implies right intent, intelligent mo-
tives, a desire to benefit yourself by
benefting humanity. Men Of character
who borrow money know what they
are going to do with the money-and
they also know how they are going to
pay it back" Except in very rare in
stances, men expect to meet their OBJ
legations when due. To do this, they
must turn their merchandise into cash.
It follows, therefore, that the man
who does not buy for cash and take
advantage of all cash discounts is plac-
ing himself at disadvantage, with re-
spect to competition. Where he fails
to do this, the reason is usually found
to be through some flaw in making his
collections.

results of the experiment station work

suits.
"The long experience Of Wisconsin
growers with the high-yielding strains
use of these seed grains to every farm
er. 1t requires no more labor to put
in these bodybuilding varieties than it
does the lower-yielding varieties, and
it requires only the same amount of
labor to take care Of the grain. The
testing Of seed corn to insure a 100
per cent stand is another step in the
right direction.
"The cOw-testing associations have
proved themselves the best means Of
detecting those cows which are con-
Stunning $40 hay and $40 grain at
loss to their owners. 1t is great
saving in labor and feed If the
Stacker cows are Weeded out. The
feeding Of full rations to the profitable
cows is necessary to secure the largest
returns for the feed.
There are farmers on high-priced
land who annually throw away con-
siderable time and money caring for
crops from which they receive small
returns due to the uncertain harvests
from cold, poorly drained soil. An i'm
provement in the way of well-planned
tile drainage will help fill the nations
food basket the coming year.
''The damages due to plant diseases
are enormous and in large measure
can be controlled by practical, mex
pensive methods. The treatment Of
oats for smut, rye for ergot, and pota-
toes for scab and black scurf by the
formaldehyde method are Of utmost
Importance. Similarly, the disinfec-
ton Of various seeds and intelligent
spraying in the growing season is la
Dor employed to secure the greatest
returns"

ergy produced when a given quantity
is burned.
The proteins have been found to diff
fer in their usefulness as food, while
the mineral constituents consist of a
certain mixture which the body seems
to need in assimilating food and keep
ing it in normal healthy condition.
The vitamens are substances which
it has been proved are absolutely
necessary for the normal growth and
development of the young. This has
been shown by careful feeding expert
ments with young animals which were
fed continually q ration containing no
vitamenS. In such cases the animals
became stunted and even paralyzed
by their diet, although it contained
everything the animal needed except
these important substances.
The toxic or poisonous substances
which some foods contain make it pos
sible to use them except in very small
quantities on account of the accumula-
ton of these poisons in the system.
The selection of foods, therefore, is
a matter of great Importance, and
much study has been given to this
question. 1t has been found that
neither meat nor any of the single
grain foods contain all the above
mentioned requirements in exactly the
right amounts, and it is not safe to
use any one of them exclusively as a
food, but trials have shown that milk
satisfies all the needs of perfect food
and furnishes the most healthy nour-
ishment and normal development of
the body at the least cost.
Economy in buying foods is mat
ter of great Importance and requires

WHY WE ARE AT WAR.

We are at war today not because
the crown prince of Austria was killed
in Serbia but because the German
army protected its advance with non
combatants-men, women and children.
We are at war today not because
German submarines sunk battleships
but because they have sunk and are
sinking peaceful vessels, little fishing
boats, when the fishermen were labor
ing to get a scant livelihood, and
great unarmed passenger ships car
rying ncombatants-men, women,
and children.
We are at war because Of those citi-
zens of conquered Belgium who died
protecting their women.
We are at war because Of that Ger
man order Of August "a, 1914, for
frightfulness.
We are at war against the convic-
ton, in German minds, that might is
right, that the end justifes any means,
no matter how brutal.
We are clean and humane people.
We would not believe these things at
first. A million and a half Belgians
fed to England with the story. We
were still incredulous. Noncombatants
were sunk at sea. We still felt there
must be some justification. New and
ever new cruelties Of death came from
the German trenches, and we have
said: "This is modern war;"
But the score is mounting higher
day by day. The politics Of this war
are lost in it's inhumanities, fathered
by German skill. It was not enough
that men should die. They must die
horribly.
We have never understood. We
have been a people Of ideals, confront
ing a nation Of Grass materialists. 1t
is time for us to understand. But it Is
not time, and never will be time, for
the American people to stoop to the
methods Of an enemy which would
again today, if the necessity arose,
protect it's advance by the helpless
forms Of old men, Of women and OF
children.
a = + y .
It is we'll for us to pause for mo-
ment to look back on these things.
We were skeptical at first, but time
has shown their truth, for they are
of q piece with the things that have
happened since. They belong with
the Lusitania and the little fishing
boats. With the attacks on London.
With liquid fire.
We are a people of homes. Politics
means little to us; the quarrels of
Europe nothing. But here is an enemy
which has marched over the homes
Of a nation and wantonly destroyed
them. Here is an enemy that took
the women and children out Of these
homes and with that pitiful advance
guard, drove ahead. "Again and
again innocent civilians Of both sexes
were sacrificed to protect the invading
army"

Administrator HOover's staff.
''This is a year when the farmer
must do the best he can with less help
than he is accustomed to having" says
Mr.. Russell. "The, nation and the
world are demanding more farm prod
ucts and the farmers will have to
meet the situation with a decreased
labor supply-a labor supply which
will continue to decrease. The big
stumbling block, therefore, in the way
Of increased production, is the scare
ity Of labor.

attempt to raise crops or stock with
which he is not familiar. 1t Is the
time for each farmer to continue to
do that which he knows how to do in
the best possible manner. Certain

VIOLATED HAGUE CONVENTION.

AAet US see Tor a moment what the
BelgianS had right to expect from
the Invading army, considering Bel
giHm not neutral but enemy territory.
Germany had subscribed to The
hague convention, that gentleman's
a@eement between nations which was
Mssigned, since wars seemed inevi-
table, to make for fairness and de-
Eency. By Article 48 Of that conven-
tinn Belgium, as enemy territory, has
fhiS claim:
sTHmily honor and rights, indiyid-
UNI life, and private property, as well
a. religious convictions and worship,
must be respected.
"Prfvate property may not be con-
Rscated."
Article Is:
"Vbe giving over to pillage Of a
town or place, even when taken by
assault, Is forbidden.
Tin sieges and commandments all
InRrassary steps must be taken to
ayrre. as Tar as possible, buildings ded-
fcated to public worship, art, science.
l0r charitable purposes, historic monu'
lments, hospitals, and places where
the sick and wounded are collected,
provided they are not being used at
the time for military purposes"
Chat Is what Belgium had right
to expGct, What she has had. in wan
ton destruction Of historical monu-
mants. We know. That Is what France,
ttoR had right to expect, and what
she got that also we know.
But The Hague convention did more
than order the protection of cities and
nuncUmbatants It ordered such hu.
ananity as was possible toward the op.
DuSing army; it forbade the use OF
pnjson or poisoned weapons, the say
ing Chat no quarter would be given,
the killing Of men who had surren'
dWed, the use OF arms. material or
nrujectnes calculated to cause unnec-
essary suffering: It forbade the attack
or bembardment by any means what
ever Of undefended towns, villages,
dwellings or buildings.
On every one Of these counts Ger
Htany must plead guilty. Every viola
'tion Of them is one reason why we are
taANar.
