barefoot this summer and help the
Fatherland." 'In view of the
alarming scarcity of labor" it goes
on, "rich and poor alike should dis

The German general staff expresses
its own Judgment as to the serious

Why Birth Registration Necessary.

The only way Of keeping an off,

birth registration. 1t is probably the

!. WHY GERMANY WARRED !.
!. on Us. !.
:. ...I.i... j. .4..l..i.


To keep supplies from reaching
the allies, Germany ruthlessly used
her submarines, in defiance Of inter
national law, in order that the food
and equipment necessary to the eff
cheney Of the allies might not reach
them.
To keep those necessary supplies
from reaching her enemies Germany
vas willing to have the United
States become one Of her enemies.
She used her submarines and we ac-
ccpted the challenge Of the lawless
var lords.
The fact that Germany was willing
to incur our enmity is conclusive
proof OF the utter Importance Of sup
plies. 1t proves beyond the faintest
shadow Of a doubt that this is a war
of resources. and when we buy un-
necessary luXuries we are uncon-
sciously helping accomplish what
Germany hoped to accomplish By
the use OF her submarines.
TO manufacture and market luXu-
rics requires labor and material
which the government needs in the
successful prosecution Of the war.
II YOU help make that labor and
material useless to the government
you are in effect doing what a sue
cessful submarine attack does-and
so unconsciously prolong the war.
The responsibility is heavy and SOL
emn on each one Of us to avoid these
useless expenditures, and refrain
from competing with our govern
ment.
Why not invest those dimes, quar-
ters and dollars in War Savings
and Thrift Stamps, thereby not only
spending safely and patriotically, but
making an investment that will pay
good dividend?

Millers are authorized to grind
from the wheat raised by farmers
enough to supply the farmers, the
members Of their families and their
tenants for year. on the basis of
IL pounds OF -four per person per
month. Farmers are expected to
use flour substitutes, pound for
pound, with the -four they have
ground from their wheat.
Farmers are at liberty to sell their
wheat to any one who wants to buy
1t. Purchasers Of wheat from farm
ers can have it ground into flour on
the same basis as farmers, but are
expected to use -four substitutes,
pound for pound, with the -four.
When farmers sell -four to indi-
viduals they must sell -four substi-
tutes, or take millers' certificates
from the individuals showing that
they have had flour substitutes
ground to cover the flour they buy,
pound for pound.
Farmers can sell -four, from their
wheat, to merchants. but when the
merchants resell this -four, it must

substitutes to the persons who buy
it.
These regulations apply to thresh-
ermen as well as to farmers.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot BE Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure ca
tarrhal deafness, and that is by a
constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
deafness is caused by an infamed
condition OF the mucous lining of tho
Eustachian tube. When this tube is
intlamed you have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing and when it is
entirely closed, deafness Is the re-
suit. Unless the inflammation can
be reduced and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever. Many cases Of
deafness are caused by catarrh,
which is an innamed condition of
the mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrh
Medicine acts through the blood on
the mucous surfaces Of the system.
We will give one hundred dollars
for any case Of catarrhal deafness
that cannot be cured by Halls Ca
tarrh Medicine. Circulars free. All
