BANKS TO PURCHASE
PURE BRED CATTLE

The National Bank Of Odessa and the
Farmers Trust Co. Of Newark, cooper
ating with the New Castle County Farm
Bureau, have instructed County Agent
Bausman TO go to Michigan TO purchase
two more carloads Of pure-bred cattle
Twenty-four farmers Of the county
have given orders for one or more Of
these cows.
Il Is the plan 10 purchase mature
COWS three or four years old, not to
exceed five years These will be COWS
Of good size and individuality, and with
the proper breeding 10 form a founda-
tiOn for future puTe-bred herd. These
cows will come fresh within one or
two months after arriving in the coun-
ty. The farmers are especially desir-
Gus Of securing this type Of COWS, as II
is only a few weeks until the cow is
ready TO start her lactation period, and
the calf at six months OF age often
times is worth half as much as the cost
Of the cow. The fall is an especially
opportune time TO buy COWS from that
section. Seventy-flve per cent. to 80
per cent. Of them freshen in the fall.
IL is thought that two carloads Of very
desirable animals Will be brought into
the county.

close by him; he was the son of a
northern mother. This sort of thing
went on all during the war.
The cowboy from the west fought
beside the Fifth avenue dude from New
York City. The dude discovered the
cowboy had some good traits and the
cowboy found that the dude wasn't
, such a bad fellow. The soldier from
the woods of Maine fell in love with
the soldier from the southland, the boy
from Dixie loved his northern brother
north or south or east or west; the
bond of unity forged in the war days
of '9S made us all one.
What is true regarding moral gains
of war in 1861 and in 1898 will be
true of this war. We have already
come to believe, as result of this war,
that drunkenness is not necessary
evil. Russia was the most drunken
nation on earth before this war; they
quick and stay long. But under the
necessities of war Russia became dry
and sober in a night and has been dry
and sober ever since.
For the first time in history we are
| seeking to send clean army into bat
tie. Hitherto it has been taken for
4,1 Al. Il a
be drunken and licentious, but the army
camps in this war are cleaner in these
respects than the average town at
home
This will lead to a demand for clean
er towns later on. If we can keep the
army camps clean we can keep the
home town clean.
There are great religious gains in
this war also. 1t is resulting in uni
ty of effort among the churches and in
a re-awakening of religious feeling. In
France the churches are filled at all
services. On one Of the battle fields
in France q Lutheran minister was
seeking to administer religious comfort
to a dying German. He could not
speak the language very well and the
man could not understand his. A
French priest had just finished admin
istering the last rites of his church to
a dying fellow countryman. He could
speak German. He knelt beside the
Lutheran minister and translated his
words of religious comfort into Ger
man SO that the dying soldier could
understand.
! A Denver boy ran away from home
ana joined the army. His people did
not know where he was until he wrote
to the Knights of Columbus Of his own
church. He said, "The chaplain Of
our regiment IL . Roman Catholic
priest. He celebrated the mass twelve
times last Sunday before noon. The
The Glenwood post., 1918-05-18

and could be cancelled at will. Lin
coin S great task was to preserve the
union; the freeing of the slave was a
byproduct of the war. That war re-
suited in a new birth of freedom with
the death of the secession idea. If you
could find man in the country who
still has the secession bee in his bon
net and he should seek to propagate
the idea he could not find three sensi-
BILE men in the United States who
who would sit and talk with him about
the matter for five minutes. We
might have gotten over that foolish
ness without 4 war, but we did not.
The war helped us to do this and it
was one great moral gain.
In 1898 a Spanish tyrant was op-
pressing the Cubans; had been doing
so for years. We crowded President
Mckinley and the United States con-
gress until they were forced to inter
fere and say ''This thing must stop:
Spain must get out of Cuba.' All
Europe said "These Americans are
just like us; they want to steal Cuba
for themselves and they find pious
reason for doing it. They play off re-
ligious to hide their theivery' When
the matter was being discussed it was
our own Senator Teller who suggested
that as soon as we have freed Cuba
from oppression that We pull down our
flag and come home. The war lasted
100 days and cost a million dollars a
day. AS soon as we had secured their
freedom we gave it to them, pulled
down our flag, came home and didn It
charge them a cent for it.
We demonstrated the fact that our
nation is dominated by Christian prin-
ciples. When we speak now the world
believes us.
The second great moral gain from
this war is the bond Of unity which It
formed among the people of all part.
Of the country. When the great civil
war was over and Lincoln was dead
we elected to the presidency a man
who hated the south. Instead of restor-
ing to the south Immediately all the
rights Of citizenship and treating them
like brothers again, he sent men from
the north down there to fill the vari-
GUS government positions. This caused
hard feeling and kept open the chasm
caused by the war.
When the Spanish-American war be.
gan the sons Of Longstreet, Pickett and
Lee all offered their services to the
government and President Mckinley
commissioned them Immediately. They
jumped at the opportunity to serve
their country. When the fighting be-
gan the first American killed was the
son Of southern woman, but . few
moments later the second man fell
