club rooms playing pool and billiards
The West Side band accompanied
the boys from West Side and vicinity
to Denison, the trip being made in
two trucks, decorated with flags and
bunting. The band played throughout
the forenoon at the court house square,
Photographs Taken at Noon.
The boys assembled at the court
house square at noon and photograph
of the entire contingent was taken by
w. w. Ferguson. After answering
roll call, which took considerable time
the boys marched in body to the st.
Rose of Lima school where dinner
was served in the dining room. Miss
Anna Mccarthy prepared the bounte-
Gus meal and she was ably assisted
in serving by bevy of pretty girls.
Few people realize how this meal
was appreciated. What meal it was
with fried chicken and all of the good
things that go with it! Then to finish
1t off, there we're cigars and cigarettes
passed, gift from the Commercial
club.
After dinner the men gathered in
the auditorium where feV brief pa
triotic addresses were delivered by
some of our citizens.
Evening Program Attracts Crowds.
No program had been arranged for
the afternoon, the committee in charge
thinking it best to have it in the eve
ming which would permit farmers and
those from a distance attending.
After the boys were served their
supper at the parochial school, they
gathered at the court house square
where the exercises were held.
The Denison Commercial band play
ed several pieces, and Hon. Carl r..
Kuehnle then called the meeting to
order. One Of the features of the
evening was the chorus Of seventy
five voices directed by Miss Keith,
state musical instructor, which rem
dered the national airs of the various
allied nations. The music was excep-
tionally fine and the crowd, went wild
when the chorus sang, Cover There"
J. c. Milliman Delivers Address.
j. G. Milliman, former Lieut.. Gov.
Of Iowa, of Logan, was then introduced
by Mr.. Kuehnle and delivered the adj
dress of the day.
In opening his address, Mr.. Milliman
stated that it was an honor to be
called upon to speak to the 215 Craw-
ford county men who were going to
do what we want to be done. The
Yanks will not stop until the American
flag flies from Williams Castle in
Berlin, said the speaker, which state.
ment caught the crowd and there was
loud cheering. Mr.. Milliman is vet
eran of the Civil war and lost an arm
while serving the Union. He explain
ed that the little bronze buttons wore
by the veterans Of the Civil war were
made of cannon captured from the
rebels. you boys win have to cap

A gun man held up the night tele-

Callahan, the night operator, has about
two hours after midnight when he IS

was a member of some train crew he
unhesitatingly opened the door and
was confronted by man with res

vent the landing Of large forces in France But
by its foul methods of warfare 1t has already
sunk many millions Of tons Of ships. Not only
has that world loss to be more than made up. but
we have to provide large further tonnage to
keep on sending soldiers abroad and sup
plying them adequately We have the unprece.
dented job OF not only feeding our own army but
other armies and other populations also.
But the ships required for those purposes are
only part Of what we need. Later ON those ships
will be necessary In bringing back our victorious
soldiers from Europe. But at present and for
some time to come the movement is one Of full
ships to Europe and fairly empty ones back. .
The United States Is now the great reservoir
from which supplies must be drawn. The enor-
nous gain In our exports shows how other ma
tons increasingly looking to to sustain
them.
Although our exports may occasionally decline.
still on the whole there is every probability Of
their increasing, not only during the war but
after the war. Large areas Of Europe are depop-
ulated and devastated. Many Of the rich wheat
growing sections including almost all Of the win
terwheat producing areas Of Russia. In the
Germans possession. Conditions IN Russia are
chaotic. The western European allies produced
in 1917 about 100000 bushels less than the an
nual pre-Har average There was a great drop
also in the wheat production Of other European
countries. Argentina, Australia and India are
producing good crops. But there is no shipping
to move 1t properly.
While the war Is on there Is a big enough de-
mand from our allies IN Europe for materials Of
all kinds. We have to supply coal, steel. oil. cot
ton, lumber, rails locomotives and a great guam
tity Of other products. After the war when the
job Of rehabilltating Europe is put through, the
demand upon this country for raw and manufac-
tured material Of all kinds will be enormous. We
shall also have to replenish the depleted herds Of
Europe from our own cattle Ours In fact. will
be the task Of supplying most Of the world
SO It is clear that besides the millions of tons Of
shipping urgently needed for the army and navy
we shall need a great permanent merchant ma
rine In 1914 only S1660O00o0 Of the more than
$4,000 600 Of our exports was carried In Aneri-
can vessels. Even now q great part Of the cargo
ANA passenger ships we using are seized enemy
vessels or requisitioned or chartered allied or
neutral vessels.
Not only on the Atlantic but on all oceans we
must have an abundance Of American ships
Since the opening OF the Panama canal. the At
lantic and Pacific oceans have been linked By the
short route.

serve China. Japan, the Philippines.
Russia and Australia. All Of these countries as
well as Central and South America. have materials
or products which we need just as they need ours.
Australia recently had surplus stated to be
900 bushels Of wheat and another big sur
plus In process Of gathering There was enough.
IN fact, to feed England and France for a year.
But 1t Of practical use to the allies. There
were no vessels TO be spared for the long haul
which takes eight or ten weeks from Australia to
England.
Last year there was surplus in Java Of 900 :
900 tons Of sugar which other parts Of the world
needing badly could not get because Of lack of
ships.
Great heaps Of coffee were spelling on the East
Indian wharves. There was no shipping to move
1t to other countries
Pyrites, which wss badly needed here, could not
be brought from Spain because Of the want Of
ships.
These are but few examples Of what ship
famine means.
Besides the many millions Of tons Of shipping
needed for the purposes already described there
fs also the pressing necessity for multiplying
the number Of ships. tugs and barges for domeS-
tic coastwise lake and inland waterway trans.
portation. These are Of the most vital impor-
lance to the farmer. Our inland, lake and coast
waterways can be used to transport vast guam
titles Of wheat and other products and freight
trip. This transportation will be cheaper to
the farmer and greatly tends to relieve railway
congestion
In less than q years time the accomplish.
ments of the United States shipping board have
been on an unprecedented scale. Where In 1911
there were only 81 shipyard plants In the UniteS
States, there are now 158 and more are be-
ing constantly established The United States
shipping board has given out contracts for 81SS,.
600 lightweight tons Of ships and has already
put in service 831.111 lightweight tons of new
shipping. This In addition to 2O73828 dead.
weight tons Of neutral and allied ships under
charter, German and Austrian ships seized, and
Dutch ships requisitionsd. 1t is launching new
ships rapidly, and is beginning to make provi.
sion for tugs and barges for inland and coast.
wise water traffic. From the small number ~
A,ez6 men employed In American shlpyards on
April 1. 1917. the force Of shipbuildsrs in our
yards has now increased to 100000.
With this progress American farmers can look
forward to the certainty Of a great merchant ma
rine' nullf In American shipyards and carryins
their products the world over now and ase.,

most favorable time to make q start

IEv least 900 bushels Of bread
AA/ grains expected from farms
Ill Wv this year, the American farmer
Is showing what his contribution
tE14agt is to the war for human free
dom. Remote as he may be from
the actual scene of conflict, he knows that he is
a big part of the world battle line. Upon his
productive efforts largely depend the supply
ing Of the allied armed forces and populations
with food
To the appeal, "Tood will win the war;" the
American farmer has responded with splendid
results But Of course that appeal has its quail
ifeations. One provisO is that food will go
long way toward insurtng victory If we have
plenty of ships to convey It where It is needed.
Great fleets Of ships have been or are being Gre
ated by the United States shipping board. They
are being produced at a record pace. But to
carry out our vast necessary shipping program
with the fullest adequacy 1t is vital that the
earnest interest of every part Of our great coun-
try should be increasingly enlisted.
Far away from the seaboard as many OF our
farms are they are Joined with the ocean to a
degree they never were before. The ships sup
element the plow and the harvester. Day and
night the farmer has been thinking Of how he
could make his land more productive. 1t Is
eubject that never leaves him. The fndica-
lions are that SO well has he thought 1t out that
this years crop of winter wheat alone Will be
164,0000 600 bushels more than last years, large
as that was. And this Is only one part OF the
immense crops coming from American farms.
True, there is always the gamble OF weather con.
ditions and the menace of insect depredations.
But the present promise is q high production
from our farms.
OF itself this fact does not alarm the Huns
They know that our big food supply 10 OF no
danger to them IL we cannot get It across. But
what does all them with dread and foreooding
fs the knowledge that ~ are rapidly getting TO-
gether the ships that will transport It over the
ocean to feed our troops and those OK inc alnes
and the peoples of the countries banded to defeat

Huns quake Is the fact that millions OF farm

CATTLE AFTER WAR

! The United States at present
probably has more purebred
cattle of beef and dairy types
than Is possessed by any other
nation or combination of ma.
tons, according to the depart
ment of agriculture. At the
. close Of the war European c0un-
tries will require the different
types Of purebred animals to re-
build their depleted herds.
: Study Of present and future
world conditions leads to the
: conclusion that continental Eu-
rope will bid high for the dairy
: type, while Russia will require
, nil types, especially the beef
types. It seems certain that i'm.
porting countries will require
cattle free from disease.
Disease eradication In our cat
tie is therefore a matter Of the
highest importance not only for
the benefit Of our own consum.
ers but to facilitate after-the-
war trade.

H, A. RICE IS BACK FROM SOUTH

Harry A. Rice, manager of the Revilla Hotel, was an arrival on the Jefferson last evening from an extended trip through California and the Pacific coast cities, and reports a delightful visit, meeting many wan dering Ketchikaners in nearly every city.
 MT. Rice reports that the Galaxy which was reported to have left Se- attle last month with Chas. E. In gersoll and Sam Orchard aboard, had been detained on account of engine trouble and inability to se- cure the necessary supplies. She left for the north however, on Monday at noon and is due to arrive most any time now. On board are Mir. Inger- engineer. The Galaxy has a huge scow in tow, loaded with supplies and lumber for the new proposed addition to the Revilla Hotel All the new furniture for the twenty six new rooms of the addition are also slowed away in the hold of the scow
 Many Contemplated improvements
 If all the improvements the plans call for are carried out, the Revilla will be one of the largest and most up-to-date hotels in the Territory Included in the improvements is 8 small passenger elevator for the con venience of patrons of the house With the additional 26 rooms, the ho- tel will have 70 rooms, with hot and cold water and telephone in each room. some of the rooms having pri- vate baths. MT. Rice stated that with the ever increasing growth of the city, the Revilla had to keep adding and renovating to meet the demands. Work on the new addition will be started as soon as practicable. The corner occupied by the Washburn Millinery will be torn out and new cement foundations put in to hold up the three stories, contemplated. - (Ketchikan Miner)
