The common cattle tick, therefore.
not only prevents an increase in our

hindrance to our production Of leather

people who do not as yet seem to

certainly do everything possible to be

TICK ERADICATION

Cattle Hides Are Reduced In Value
From &c to so Por Cent.

Tick eradication will mean the pro-
ductfon of more leather and better
leather in Louisiana and ether South

greatest needs Of the Government in
the prosecution of the war.
1t has been stated on good author
Ny that many of the army horses at
the various camps cannot be used for
want OF the requisite number of sad
dies, brides, etc. One Of the chief
factors In this leather shortage is the
cattle tick, because of the DAMAGE 4,

The quickest and cheapest way Of
adding to our meat supplies is to In
crease poultry and egg production. To
double this production next year will
give us 6,5OO.OOO,OOO pounds Of meat
food in the form Of poultry and eggs.
BY having this amount Of poultry food
for domestic consumption we will eat
less pork and beef, and can send al
most that many pounds OF meat to Eu-
rope. We cannot increase any Of the

With Your Silver
last April the war-cloud left the horizon :
IL and spread over our entire sky.
Its silver lining consists solely of the re-
sources of America in men and money.
For these alone can bring victorious, swift
end to the war.
To keep that silver lining bright and evident,
all of us who stay at home must do certain
simple and very necessary things.
First of all we must save-nOt only large
amounts with which to buy Liberty Bonds, but
small coins to buy Thrift Stamps and War
Savings Stamps.
These small savings are really as important
as the larger ones.
Through them the government expects us
to lend the country two billion dollars-eight
billion quarters.
Every quarter you save by doing without
unnecessary luxuries buys Thrift Stamp
When you get sixteen of these Thrift Stamps
turn them in at any post office, bank or regular
appointed agent and you will get one War
Savings Stamp.
This savings stamp is the governments
promise to pay you, at the end of five years,
one 6ve-dollar gold piece.
These $500 War Savings Stamps are ex-
changeable for cash any time between now and
January /, 1923, upon giving ten days written
notice to any money order post Office You
pet the cost price plus accumulated interest.
By buying them you make available money
that now has effect in fastening victory
and swift victory is the silver lining of the war
cloud over us.
Begin buying them now-and keep on
buying.
Your post office money order station, or
your bank, sell them to you and tell you
everything you want to know about them.

London, March g. Unless British
builders and artisans accelerate ship
building the point where production
balances losses will be postponed to a
dangerous extent, Sir Eric Geddes. first
lord Of the admiralty, told the house of
commons today.
He said there had been serious drop
in ship production.
"Our allies are making every effort to
increase their production" Sir Eric
SAID, but despite glowing reports in
the American press, and great as the
effort of that country doubtless is,
there is no doubt considerable time
must elapse before the desired output
is obtained"
Sir Eric also said the naval forces of

lillian warships.
Heavy U-Boat Losses.
For some months" Sin Eric said,
1--WE believe that we and the Americans
have been sinking submarines as fast
as they are built"
Submarines were being destroyed in
increasing numbers. he continued, and
as the methods employed against them
were developed the numbers would be
enlarged still further.
There is growing reluctance on the
part Of German crews to put to sea. he
said, declaring the chances that sub
marine would return from a voyage in
the waters around England were one
in four or one in five.
In the waters around the British
isles, which had been the enemys chief
field for submarine operations. the
greatest successes against the U-boats
