FIFTY
INDEMNITY!

One paragraph in Ambassador &C.
rard's book bored itself deep into my
mind. 1t is the chapter where Mr..
Gerard tells of his interview with the
Kaiser-the interview that was plan
e but for a few minutes, and was
prolonged by Emperor Wilhelm to more
than an hour.
1t was a care-worn, nervous, irritable
man whom Mr.. Gerard talked with.
II showed great bitterness against the
United States,' Mr.. Gerard reports,
land repeatedly said: America had
better look out after this war; and 4
shall stand no nonsense from America
after the war;" This was before
member-before our destroyers had be-
gun to check the German submarines
before we had landed a single soldier
in France. Even before we had become
an enemy against him, Wilhelm was
repeating over and over to himself
what he meant to do to America after
the war.
1 can't seem to forget that incident,
somehow. 1t keeps coming back to me
at all sorts of times. And every time
/ remember it, l shudder a bit n wish
/ had a thousand times as much to put
into Liberty Bonds. Very early in the
war, a very prominent American told
me he had met a great German official
In T0nlnn siy yanrS 400 And this
great German official said to him, "We
shall have to take on England first,
and then il will be your turn" When
the prominent American told me this
story, / doubted it. 1t seemed too alb
surd to be believed-that an official
of any government should make so
foolish a statement as that. l met that
same man a few days g and he told
me the story over again, and added !:
81 understand that fifty billion dollars
is the amount thev intended to collect
from us when they came" This time
l did not tell him that l doubted the
story. Up before my mind came that
picture of Wilhelm, nervous, angry,
shaking his head, muttering to himself,
II shall stand no nonsense from Amer
lea after the war"
Fifty billion dollars! Five hundred
dollars from every man, woman and
child Of us! Two thousand dollars
right out of my little house to help
pave the streets of Berlin and pay the
Krupps for guns for the next war
Fifty billion dollars-Gosh!
Please pass the Liberty Bonds!

WHEAT
An Article by the Fed
eral Food Administra-
zion in Wyoming

To divide the available wheat supply Of this country into equal
parts would mean that each person would have about one and one
half pounds of wheat per week from now until the next harvest
The person who uses more than this amount is appropriahng to his
own greed what should be some others share.
WHAT CAN WE DOT
The government of the United States, In meeting this wheat
emergency, asks of US:
First-That the we'll do and the rich use even less than the
above mentioned amount of wheat.
second-That no person use more than an average OF two
ounces of wheat products for each meal.
Third-That we be careful to buy substitutes in equal proper
tions as we buy wheat, and in greater proportions than wheat If
possible.
Fourth-That no wheat flour be used for any non-food
purpose.
A MILITARY NECESSITY.
1t is q military necessity that the government should know the
location Of every pound of excess flour and sugar. Persons who
have more than their absolute needs for the next thirty days are
subject to penalty if they do not report to the Food Administrator
of their state. Wyoming people, who have led the Union in all
patriotic work, will report through no reason other than patriotism.

TO eliminate
POISONOUS PLANTS

On Saturday afternoon, January 5, Q
meeting was held at the office of Coun-
ty Agriculturist Alfred, by number
of the Canon creek stockmen, for the
purpose of organizing stock associa-
ton. 1t was the unanimous belief that
through the medium, of a stock associa-
ton, closer cooperation could be secur-
ed with the forestry officials in the
administration of the range, and that
the organization would result in mutual
benefits which could not be secured by
the stockmen while working as indivud-
uals. A temporary organization was
effected, and the following officers were
elected: 8. L. Meadows, president; A.
s. Baxter, vice president; Adolph Hem
bricks, secretary and treasurer. An ex-
ecutive committee, which is to act as
an advisory board, was elected, and
consists of the followings John G.
Sparks, E. E. Westhafer, Bert Tibbetts,
Al. Anderson, William Emery.
The officers and executive committee
were appointed as general committee
for the purpose of drafting a constitu-
tion and bylaws, and another meeting
is to be held in Glenwood on February
2, for the purpose of completing the
organization and making application
to the district forester at Denver for
recognition of the advisory board
The stockmen have experienced CON
siderable loss on the range of their cat
tie from larkspur poison, and among
the objects to be attained are co-opera.
tion with the forestry officials in the
eradication of the larkspur by grubbing,
and to secure a more equitable .distri-
button of salt on the range and bet
ter supply of bulls.
The territory over which this or
sanization will operate will be the area
lying north Of the Grand river and ex-
tending from Canon Creek to Grizzley
creek. For several years the owners
ranging stock ON this territory have
discussed tie eradication of iark.pur
from their range, but last Saturdays
meeting was the first step looking to-.
ward organized action along that line.
le is believed that by cooperating with
the forest service their heavy losses Of
the past may be eliminated, and that
the apparent expense of the undertake
ing may be turned into an investment.
