The principle Of cooperation

| makes wonderful movement IN
| the upbuilding Of any town OF
community. If you have a clerk
| to hire, get one from a family OF
your town. 1t will bring re.
turns, besides the benefits of ap.
probation Of linking an endless
chain, the possibilities of which
cannot be measured in the heap
of human affairs. Buy goods in
your home town; employ lawyers
of your own community and
give all your printing to yoar
town office-and then it won't be
long before it can rival the city
offices in neatness and beauty OF
print-and it will draw business,
and advertise the worth of your
town, paying dividends which
good advertising always does.
Be stockholders, with a helping
hand, of every enterprise and bus
mess Of your community. Let it
be said that your people are thor
.oughly patriotic, democratic and
socialistic. in business, in politics
and in religion: Proving "a iv-
ing wage as a minimum in every
industry and the highest wage
that every industry can afford. \
This is good business, good poll

FACTS WORTH KNOWING.

The first test of shrapnel wa
made in England 112 years ago
when a committee of British army
men reported favorably on the
invention of a fellow officer
Henry Shrapnel. Shrapnel was
first employed in warfare in 1906
and fully demonstrated it's ex-
plosive usefulness.
Since August, 1914, the United
States has shipped a million
horses and half a million mules
to Europe.
There are $50 cities in the
United States with populations in
excess Of $4,000, and practically
every one Of these cities has hum
dreds of acres of park land. These
park acreages, the government
believes. could easily maintain
10000 sheep each summer. And
sheep are the best lawn mowers.
Every man in the United
States Army takes the Federal
oath at the time of his enlistment.
Members of the National Guard
take what is known as the dual
oath. which covers both State and
Federal service.
Twelve thousand square miles
-7,680,0O0 acres-constitute the
rice land of Japan which feeds a
nation of about 100000 people
on an average Of a pound day
for each person.
There are 674,728 depositors in
the United States Postal Savings
Service. They have $131 ,954,-
696 to their credit.
The United States now manu-
features practically everything it
requires in chemc ais. Before the
war 80 per cent of our chemicals
were imported from Germany.
1t costs the United States 1857
to equip an infantryman for serv-
ice in France. That is the price
paid for his tools Of war only

Since some of the above dis
tricts have not sent in complete
reports there may be some chang
es in these figures. Should any
pledges or cash be outstanding,
kindly forward to the above adj
dress. Mr.. Watson is very pro-
fuse in his expressions of the
prompt and kindly way in which
every one over the state has
helped to get together these funds
and especially the hearty support
rendered in everyway possible by
the press during the campaign.

the nations destiny. Not a home
or an individual must be allowed
TO be q Stacker or to commit any

That is the idea behind the new

AS The MIRROR has grown has the mechan-

ing Department is today of the important
departments of the institution. On July 8, $780,
8x12 Job press was installed and very limited
amount of printing done. A few additions
were made to the supply of type from time to time

"foot-power' press. Not until the New Prison was

changed to six columns in February, 1914 and since
