ANOTHER FAILURE

The farmer who had planned to raise money by mortgage negotiated through the Federal Land Bank and who had reckoned upon five per cent interest, as promised, will now have to pay five and a half per cent. "On account of the war;" we assume; though no reason is specially assigned for the increase. As originally plan ned the Federal Land Banks were to secure funds through the sale of bonds at four and half per cent, and this money was to be loaned to the farm CTS at five per cent. It is by no means unlikely that the Land Bank, like oth- CT governmental agencies, is unable to keep it's expenses within its esti- mates, and that the half per cent mar gin is not sufficient to pay the bills of the Federal Farm Loan Board and it's subsidiary institutions.

PRIORITY ORDERS.

It will be evident to anybody who considers the matter with an open mind that the transportation prob- lens can best be solved by traffic ex- perts. Why cannot the railroads be told how much food and how much fuel must be moved in given direc- tion in a given time, and then let the traffic managers find the means to meet the requirements? If these ex- perts cannot solve the problems, it cannot be solved. Least of all can it be solved by the issue of priority or ders, at the request first of this au- thority and then of that, regardless of their conflicts with one another or the availability of facilities and equip ment. Congestion can best be pre- vented and transportation accelerated by the uninterrupted flow of traffic; and to assure this nobody is more competent than the men who know what equipment is available and who have spent their lives in learning how to get the greatest possible amount of work out of the same.--Philadel- phia Record.

FREE TRADE EXODUS.

From Washington comes the an- nouncement that 3,000,000 persons among the foreign population of this country are prepared to emigrate to their homes as soon as peace is de- clared. A variety of reasons are giv- en why they will leave the United States, but the one reason why they will stay-the controlling reason-is not mentioned, and that is the wages they receive in American industries. If, however, this country is left a prey to foreign competitors because the Democrats control our postwar tariff policy, there will be an exodus of alien labor. It had begun in 1914. There will likewise be an exodus of American laborers--from the mills to the park benches.

ARMY TRUCKS TO PORTS
 UNDER THEIR OWN POWER

Army trucks for use in France are being delivered to the Atlantic sea- board from interior storage depots un- der their own power.
 If the plan is successful, the deliv- cry of the 30,O00 war trucks under construction under their own power will release 15,000 freight cars which would be required to transport them by rail. It would also provide ade- quate opportunity for the training of an effective corps of transport driv- CTS and officers, who will reach France with minimum of training to be required. Wear and tear on the trucks will be slight compared witf the benefits to be derived from theil use.

MUST HAVE EXPLOSIVE LICENSE

Powder in the hands of persons not authorized under existing Federal regulations to make use of explosives, is as serious a matter in point of vio- lation as is the possession of liquors. Penalties provided are severe. Some arrests have occurred in the larger districts, where men have slipped powder from the mines for the pur- pose of doing work of their own. Their innocence of intent to use the explosive against the government has not prevented their prosecution, upon which the Federal government is in- sistent. All persons should make sure that they have a properly issued license from the district supervisor of powder before they permit explosives of any kind to come into their pos session.

GARFIELD A MISFIT.

The governments fuel administra- ton has been badly bungled. In the summer when people normally put in coal for the next winter the govern ment advised them not to stock up be- cause prices would be lower. Now winter finds them without coal and unable to get it.
 Early in September Doctor Garf- field, fuel administrator, gave out a statement which was published in The Star, in which he said:
 Don't stock up on the present high priced coal more than you actually need the upward trend in prices that always comes with war and which has been in progress in this country in coal up until the present time will be stopped. I will be tre- mendously disappointed if the meas ures we put into effect October 1 do not bring a positive reduction from present prices of coal in practically every American city"
 The immediate and direct effort of this was to cause people in Kansas City and elsewhere to put off buying their coal in expectation of getting a better price. Dr. Garfield re-enforced his statement by his announcement on September 30 that the government had taken complete control of the fuel situation limiting the profits of re- tail coal and coke dealers throughout the country to basis that is expect ed to bring about reduction in prices to every consumer. The con sumer in every community" the statement continued, should be able to get coal of any description at ap- proxfmately the price he paid ir 1915"
 People took the fuel administra. tors advice, with the consequence ot being out of coal and unable to get any now that cold weather has come
 The outcome has made it evident that Doctor Garfield was lacking ir information and in judgment. He un dertook to advise the people of the United States and now they are suf' fering for following his advice. H' has been an excellent college presi dent. But he has proved himself { misfit as fuel administrator.
 | This is not his fault. The faul was in selecting him for position for which he was not qualified. Fol fuel administrator there was need o1 a man of wide business experience and great executive capacity. Th' president of Williams College did no happen to have those qualifications | Under the circumstances ther' should be no hesitation in asking hin to give way to man adapted to thu job.-Kansas City Star.

 FOR COAL CONSUMERS

As an aid to the educational cam paign to save coal, the United States Fuel Administration has decided on January 30, 1918, as national Tag Your-Shovel-Day". On that day school children will tie tags, bearing instruction for coal saving, to every coal shovel in the country. This tag should remind each man, woman and child who uses a coal shovel that ev- cry shovelful of coal saved means just so much additional power and help and support for the American soldier and sailor on the firing line.
 c. M. Shannon, Fuel Administrator for Arizona, is asking every teacher to make frequent talks to the children, pointing out the great good that will result if every child does it's part, and also talks on coal conservation in gen. eral. The valuable help rendered by school children throughout the coun- try in the last Liberty Loan drive shows that much gcod can be accom- plished through them, and if all will heed the advice printed on the tags to be put on every shovel by the child ren on "Tag- Your -Shovel-Day," il will aid materially in making up the shortage of coal, estimated at 50,. GOO, ,0O0 tons by the U. S. Fuel Admin istrator, H. A. Garfield.

GROWTH OF AMERICAN NAVY.

Interesting figures received by the State Council of Defense show that the American navy now has per sonnel strength approximating that of the much larger British navy at the outbreak of the war. It has 26,- 900 enlisted men, 15,000 officers, 33,- 900 marines, with 1197 officers, and about 6O,OOO employees, in all a strength of about 340,0O0. A year aga there were only 68,000 sailors and 4,500 officers and less than 1000 ma rines, with 344 officers. Incidentally, very large part of the Marine Corps already is in France, doing duty with the army.
 A year ago there were 300 naval vessels of all types. Now more than a thousand are in commission. The navy used to cost ss,0O0,OOO month; it now costs $6O,OOO,OOO a month. Within eighteen month Congress has appropriated for naval needs the enormous amout of S1 ,905, ,410,930.
 The navy has taken over the prin- cipal radio stations of the United States and insular possessions. It has it's own projectile plant at Charles ton, West Virginia, its own powder mills at Indian Head, Maryland, and is operating at highest speed the

THAT KNIFE-LIKE PAIN
Is Only One of Natures Warnings of
 Weak or Disordered Kidneys.

Have you lame back, aching day and night? Do you feel sharp pains after stooping? Are the kidneys sore? Is their action irregular? Use Doan's Kidney Pills--the medicine that is recommended by so many people in this locality. Read this Phoenix mans experience:
 Oscar c. Bartlett, GAP N. Fifth Ave, Phoenix, Ariz., says: "Last year my kidneys were in bad shape. My back hurt me something awful and for about three weeks I could hardly get around. When I tried to bend over it felt as if knife was sticking into my back. I certainly was in bad way. Nights my kid neys acted too frequently, breaking my rest. Doan's Kidney Pills cured me of every symptom of the trouble and made me feel like a different man."
 Price COG, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for kidney remedy-get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that cured MT. Bartlett. Foster-Milburn O., Props, Buffalo, N. Y.

According to the Department ot

According to the Department of Commerce bulletin, Argentina import ed 5,115 automobiles in 1913, 2,185 in 1914, 1,847 in 1915, and 5,929 in 1916. Our exports of automobiles to Argen- tina for those years, respectively, to- tailed 1907, 9ss, 629, and 4,444. Another reminder showing how our export trade fell off when industry was paralyzed by Democratic tariff law, and how it came to life when the war gave us monopoly of South American markets. Yet new school of traders advocates free American market and a centering of attention on export trade, as if we could turn our home market over to our compet- itors and at the same time control foreign fields of trade.

led the United States and the
Allied Nations to urge upon the
sugar industry the adoption by
voluntary agreement Of the
original Hoover plan, under the
authority Of the Food Control
Act, passed August 10, 1917.
The cane-susar refiners and the
beet-susar producers unanimously
agreed to the Hoover plan as a
patriotic act in the interest Of che
American people and as an aid TO
the Allies.
This"is the significance Of the
appointment by the United States
Food administration Of the Inter
national Sugar Com mittee to
which the Allies send representa-
tives for England, France, Italy
and Canada, and to which the
United States contributes tnrfc
members.
Upon the success Of the opera
ton Of the international Sugar
Committee under the directions Of
the Allied Governments, acting
for practically half the civilized
world, will depend the readjust-
ment of the worlds sugar markets.
This plan is full Of promise to
all the nations party to the con.
vention.
1t is An assurance that sugar.
although comparatively cheap
in view Of war conditions. will not
by reason either Of competitive
or speculative activity be In
creased in wholesale price.
Sugar will become stabilized in
price with sufficient profit to pro-
ducers, refiners and merchants to
maintain and stimulate produc-
ton and to cover the cost Of re.
filming and Of distribution.
The marketing of Domino Cane
Sugars in cartons and small cotton
bags by this Company has helped
amazingly during the pinch Of
the fall months in giving a wide
distribution among the retailers
Of the reduced sugar supplies.
While a barrel formerly was the
unit of the grocer the same amount
of sugar put up in cartons and
small cotton bags can now be d.
vided between two Or more Srocers
and SO serve a larger number OF
people and prevent boarding.
1t will be necessary for srocers
and consumers to watch carefully
their distribution and purchases
during the approaching period Of
readiustment. The refineries are
now starting up and supplies Of
raw sugar coming forward, but it
will take weeks, and possibly
months, for the return of normal
conditions.
Housewives can aid in conserv-
ing the sugar supply by buying
these package sugars.
