Chicago. H.. Feb I5.-Corn prices

We were now in the inner hall, and
stopped abruptly.

Even now I thought that Jack was

ing to M. C. Fitzpatrick of the College

of eggs in storage and the number OF
pullets for eggs production is normal
in the corn belt, the price of feeds,

high that 81 a dozen will not yeild
more than fair profit. Mr.. Fitzpatrick

HELP THE DEVELOPMENT.

The war has called the attention of capital in this country to the oppor- tTnity to launch out into new fields and develop industries which had for merly received little or no attention. Not only the chance to furnish that which had heretofore been coming from Germany but the necessity of doing it in order to meet the demand has started action along lines which should not be abandoned in the fu- ture
 It has been seen how the dyemakers and the chemical manufacturers have launched out into new fields, how they have succeeded in a comparatively brief time in producing the equal of the material that was previously man. ufactured in Germany, which country had developed a monopoly in that line because of the low cest of pro- duction.
 And now we are finding out that just as satisfactory toys can be pro- duced ~in this country as have pre- viously been imported from Germany Not being able to get such goods, and soon finding out that we did not want them if we could get them. the toy making concerns in this country have more than doubled in the past fiv5 years. There were n doing an an. nual business of seven and a half mil lion in 1913. Today there are 165 ant their volume of business has teer twenty and a half million this year It is a development which should no' be regarded as temporary but whicl calls for the putting forth of ever! effort to encourage it to still greater growth and that encoura cement, al in the case Of the dyemakers and tn, chemical m2nufacturers must conn not solely through patronage bu through the extension of the prope
 protection which will make + rossibi
 to ccnpete in the days following tn war with the cheap labor condition
 of other countries.

STORIES OF THE WAR

Tn the Hands Of the Red Cross"
 This. letter was written by a Boston boy, of German ancestry, who before the war was a member of the Massa- chusetts militia. He served on the Mexican border at the time of the trouble witt. that country and was among the first Americans sent to the European front. He wect as a top sergeant but has been prsmoted to a lieutenancy, He was founded in the jaw by a shrapnei splinter while in command of detachment made up of American and English soldiers: Sept. 13, 1s18
 Dear Dad: really don't know why you have not received more mail from me, as I have written often. l have been two months at a time without receiving any mail at all, and as to the newspa pers receive none at all except what the Red Cross give me. Say, Dad, they're the real people over here.

OTHER VIEW POINTS

Possibly one of the reasons our troops are so welcome in German ter ritory is that they lcarry an able bodied com1nissary department. = Hartford Times.
 Judging from the e-made Stars and Stripes shown in the pictures of French peace parades, there were not enough American flags in Europe to serve as patterns. It will be different hereafter. Republican.
 The casualty lists, including those of Connecticut names, indicate that the boys whose folks have been in America only for score or two Of years have done their part as Americans quite as thoroughly as those of the first fan1i- lies" The number of lads of Polish and Italian birth or descent who have laid down their lives, been captured or wounded in various degree of se- verity is astonishing.-Ma Manchester Herald.
 Labor hlust come under the univer- sal law of good service which governs all things. The average workingman would be first to denounce merean- tile establishment which insisted on retaining high prices, regardless of quality and competition. In fact, laws have been devised especially to cope with such situations. Yet there are some who say they will accept no re- l duction of wages after the war. This is serving notice that all established l laws of service, and of supply and de- mand, are to be abrogated. We think this was spoken hastily and in too
 broad a way. As matter of fact
 labor is already accepting lower 1 wages Not only that, but it is bid
 ding for jobs. No industrial order
 can stand upon either inflated wages
 or inflated commodity prices. Se~vice or workmanship is the bedrock of in- dustrial prosperity. In certain fields wages before the war were low, an6
 of course all wages will not go bacl
 to the pre-war scale. But unless bet
 ter workmanship is to be the compell- ing motive for the higher wage, wt shall find continued diffifllties.- Bridgeport Telegram.
