ALL HELP TO PRODUCE FOOD.

Speaking of food-how much Of
what you eat do you help to produce
by your own work? Farms need la
Dor. The difficulty is not an INSULT
cheney of actual man power. There
are plenty of men to supply the farms
with help But the man power is
applied to other things, and the
farms will not be adequately suppli-
ed with help unless men turn tempo
rarily from their present business or
employment and work on farms in
their county during the rush periods
of cultivation and harvest
If We were not at war you might
feel free to disregard this as your
personal duty. But we are at war;
this is a war need, and you are not
free to disregard it.
1t is the duty of every strong man
of farm experience or of farm apti-
tude who is not now engaged in work
to which his personal attention is
constantly indispensable, to 60 to
farms in the agricultural territory
adjacent to his town when farm labor
needs are urgent, and help produce
the food crops which are essential to
war winning.
You eat every day. Somem ans
hard work produced that food. Our

IoRRoW COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER
BRUTE POWER OF MONEY

Numerous initiative bills were
started by the plain people Of Oregon
to go upon the ballot this fall. Also
c. S. Jackson. wealthy publisher of
the Portland Evening Journal,
started two bbills.
The plain people, not having small
fortunes to pay the cost of getting
$4,000 signatures to each petition,
and being busy working in shipyards
and getting in crops, finally aban-
doned all their bills even after
many signatures were obtained.
Mr.. jackson, having riches, was
able to afford the expense of getting
enough signatures for each of his
two bills, so they go on the ballot,
the only two initiative measures to
have enough names to get them on
the ballot.
The two Jackson bills represent
pique against other publishers.
One is intended to divert revenue
from publishers to the postal service,
by substituting post card notices for
newspaper publication of delinquent
taxes. The other bill reduces the
charge made for publishing legal
notices. Both matters are entirely
within legislative control, so no real
necessity exists for invoking a vote
of all the people.
So far as affording a means for the
people to legislate, the initiative

We have the pleasure of placing
on the Gazette-Times Honor Roll,
the following new subscriptions and
renewals since our last report. Our
list steadily grows and we are glad
to announce further, that the raising
of the subscription price to $500
per year appears to be no deterrent
to our growing list. The public
realizes that newspaper has to
advance its prices along with the
other commodities, providing it
keeps up to the highest standard.
We are striving hard to do this even
in the face of adverse circumstances,
and the hearty cooperation of our
patrons to this end is appreciated.
New subscriptions are:

ALWAYS LOSING OUT.

Every week chronicles the further
loss Of prestige of German ideas and
culture in the nations of the world.
Ten years ago it was the ambition of
every American scholar to finish
his course at some German univer-
sity. The Teutonic literature was
read in high schools and colleges,
and science paid homage to the
learning and achievements of that
race. 1t had won a position at the
very top of the ladder, and its
leadership was recognized far and
wide.

soldiers In France must eat and
somebody's hard work produces that
food. If you are so situated that you
can help produce this food it is your
duty to do so.
Lay off your present job or get
away from your present business for
a few days or few weeks as you are
needed. You'll lose money and
weight. You'll gain blisters, sore
muscles and clear conscience.

WORK OR FIGHT.

A press dispatch says: "Pitsburg-
Pitcher Paul Perritt of New York Ma
tionals received notice from his draft
board at Shreveport, La, to show
cause why he should not engage in
essential employment under work-or-
fight ruling. Third Baseman William
McKechnie of the Pittsburg Nation
ais received similar summons from
his board here. Both will appeal.
1t is hard to understand how baseball
can be figured as legitimate excuse
to evade the work or fight rule when
there is crying need for workmen at
all lines.

The changes wrought by four
years are almost beyond belief.
Everything has been lost and the ma
tion and government which reached
the pinacle of fame, is the most ex-
ecrated on earth. No one wants
anything of the music, literature,
science or administrative methods of
gang which develops all arts for
the sole purpose of killing and des-
troying. Many generations will pass
before the German people can throw
off the curse they have permitted to
be cast on them by their leaders,

until the following morning when
they left for the Gerstner Field

exhausted their supply. When

only the machine was injured.
This delayed their return home

be an object lesson to certain
class of people in every commnn-

otherwise handling airships as

be wondered that more accidents
do not occur when landings are
made because in many instances

cation purposes. These tolls are
limited to such time as may be
necessary for the repayment Of
the expenditure for construction.
While the chief object of the
project is the securing of ade-
quate water for the irrigation of
rice fields, the new channels will
be of value in aiding draining,
bettering navigation conditions
and furnishing an additional out

for the expenditure of 100000
which will be furnished by a
company composed Of the local
interests which will benefit.
The permit signed today by the
secretary Of war provides for the
excavation and construction Of
channels which will make posi-
ble the conduction of water from
the Atchafalaya, through Bayou
Courtableau and Bayou Teche to
a point below Breaux Bridge,
thence through a cutoff to Ba-

War Department approved what
practically was the plan as
worked out by the local interests.
The entire work, however, will be
carried out under the supervision
Of the War Department.
The necessity for taking water
from the Atchafalaya for use in
the rice section was emphasized
by last years drouth. when the
rice production was reduced
greatly. For many months ac-

to relieve the situation which
caused such widespread loss last
year. Senator'S Ransdell and

ENTENTE AERIAL
 NEWS SERVICE FOR AUSTRIA

Italian airplanes are now regular lv supplying Austria's. rebellious subjects with Entente war news. A complete squadrille has just dropped 100, ,OOO leaflets in Croat, slovene and Jugoslav on Zara. The Hrvat- ska Drzava, of Agram, reports that othe~ Italian aviators, flying above towns In Carniola, have been throw ing down pamphlets containing the resolutions of the Congress of Rome.
 "The people," says the Austrian paper. "at first thought the leaflets were connected with the war loan" 4 little later, above Klagenfurt, "an Austrian airplane' was throw ing down war-loan circulars and italian airplanes were dropping Trumbitch manifestoes at the same time." Dr. Trumbitch might be called the Jugoslav ambassador to 4he Entente. The Congress of Rome gave "Jugoslavia" its first official recognition. And thanks to this Italian news service from the air, the Jueolavs have now nothing to learn about the attitude of the Entente towards them, or of Entent victories on the Aisne and Somme.
 Along the Bulgarian front Eng fish and French birdmen are doing almost the same thing, as a Sofia newspaper makes clear.
 Every day" says the Narodni Prava, furiouslv, "enemy airplane sca'.er appeals to the soldiers Tn our front lines. They are usually signed. hy a 'Buglarian Patriot or hg Committee for the saving or Buglaria.' And what is contained in the circulars scattered on the front is spread in our VliI"ses anu towns"
 The Narodni Prava's editor, no" ever is convinced that these osion- ous emanations do not come from either revolutionary committees or the Entente governments. They are the work of well-known and super diaboIical fellow editor.
 "IorS Northcliffe," says the Nar odni Prava, lis the danger. It IS he wb Is inundating our Bulgari@h front with these appeals.
