WAR BANK NOTES.

We're TO have a wartime currency.
1t is expected to make its appearance,
appropriately enough, on or about
July 4. 1t will consist of a big issue
of new 81 and 50 bills symbolizing the
present war.
The 81 note will have on its face a
portrait of George Washington, who
fought and won our first war for free
dom, and on the reverse side an eagle
in warlike attitude clutching the
American flag. The So note will bear
on its face picture of Thomas Jeffer-
son, the greatest of our early expo
nents of democracy, and on the back
the design of one of our new battle
ships that are lighting for world
democracy.
These bank notes, needless to say,
have nothing in common with the huge
quantities of paper money issued by
the German Government, The Ger
man paper is mere fiat money, I'M
secured promises to pay. Defeat will
no doubt invalidate that German
paper. The American paper. meant to
replace our present silver certificates,
is issued by the Federal Reserve
Banks. backed by ample security, and
exchangeable for coin at any time.

MAKING WASTE PAY.

Garbage isn't what it used To be, the
experts tell us. In the first place
there's a good deal less of it. Ac-
cording to the report of the Food Ad-
ministration. collections in rs Amer
lean cities are Ia per cent smaller
than they were during a similar per-
iod a year ago.
Also, garbage is less rich. House
wives have succeeded in saving and
utilizing fully half the amount of
grease and other foodstuffs formerly
thrown away as useless.
1t would seem that there isn't much
left in the garbage pail, now that
Americans have learned some of the
possibilities of genuine food thrift and
conservation. But even that little
has it's value. Instead of burning this
meagre refuse, many cities are saw
ing coal and making money at the
same time by selling their garbage to
farmers. There's much stuff inedible
by human beings that is nevertheless
good food for hogs. Clean gristle,
vegetable Feelings, table and kitchen
scraps, if freshly collected and served
up to hogs. produce perfectly good
pork Minneapolis sells its garbage
to farmers for $1.26 a ton, and expects
to save about $4,000 thereby Madi-
son, Wis. is selling its garbage for
SIPS a ton. Cedar Rapids, Ia, and
Harrisburg. Pa. have begun hog-feed-
ing in place of insanitary dumping
and wasteful iucineration. The pig
gerry plan for garbage disposal is
another patriotic scheme that pays.

TOO THOROUGH.

German thoroughness has over
reached itself in Russia-as usual.
The downfall of Russia, as every
body knows. was due to internal dis
organization planned and carried out
by Germany. How completely the
German agents did their work is seen
in a striking little word picture of
Russia given by a returned Ameri-
can;
"A nation of famished cities and rag
ged people, a nation in which each
community is trying selfshly to live
altogether TO itself. nation of idle
men, nation without government"

SELLING BELOW COST.

a rule made by the Federal Trade
Commission ought to have a whole
some effect on retail business general
ly. II is by way Of an amendment TO
Supreme Court decision, that manu-
facturers and wholesalers cannot fix
the prices at which their goods shall
be retailed
This principle is recognized as
sound, because without il the retail
er might eventually be deprived OF all
power 10 make prices on what he sells,
and commodities would develop into
monopolies controlled absolutely by
the manufacturers. But the Trade
Commission holds that there must be
limits even TO a retailers control of
his own prices He is therefore for
hidden to sell standard goods at less
than cost, because such a practice
means unfair competition with other
retailers.
The Board might have added that il
is also unfair to the manufacturer, be
cause the selling of a standard, wen
known commodity anywhere at less
than cost tends to lessen the public es-
innate of its worth, and thus hurts the
trade value" built up by expensive
advertising and honest dealing.
1t is better for the public, too. to
eliminate this "cutthroat competition"
1t preserves real values and tends
to keep commodities up TO standard
It tends to get out of the consumers
head, too the fallacy that it really
does him any good to get part of his
purchases below cost of production.
