some little time now. This is occa-
stoned on account of our receiving
our supply from the dock companies
instead of direct from the mines;
that is, the government allowed the
mines an advance of price amount
ing to about 40 cents per ton on all
coal mined after June 25th, but all
coal mined before that date must be
sold at the old prices.
Coal that has been shipped up to
now was acquired by the dock COM
panies before June 25th, so the price
of coal has been based on that price;
but when new coal is shipped, the
new prices take effect, and this is.
in some instances, beginning to ar
rive now. The dealers are in the
position that until they get their in
voices, they do not know the price
they can sell the coal at, so are un-
able to quote a definite price. Some
dock companies have old coal and
some new coal, so different prices
exist. However. all sales by the
dealers have to be reported to the
government, so that only the regu-
lar margins allowed may be
charged.

The Fourth Liberty Loan

The campaign for the Fourth Lib
erty Loan will begin September %
and close Oct. 10. The result Of the
loan will be watched with keen in
terest in Europe, not only by our as
sociates in the war against the Teu-
tonic powers but by our enemies.
1t will be regarded by them as a
measure of the American peoples
support of the war.
: The Germans know full we'll the
tremendous weight and significance
Of popular support of the war, of
the people at home backing up the
Army in the'tield, AS the loan sue
ceeds our enemies will sorrow; as it
falls short they will rejoice. Every
dollar subscribed will help and en-
courage the American soldiers and
hurt and depress the enemies of
America.
The loan will be test of the 10y
atty and willingness of the people of
the United States to make sacrifices
compared with the willingness of
our soldiers to do their part. There
must be and will be no failure by
the people to measure up to the
courage and devotion of our men in
Europe. Many of them have given
up their lives; shall we at home
withhold our money? Shall we spare
our dollars while they spare not
their very lives?

To Prepare Women
For Mems Work

In addition to its strong military
and agricultural departments, the
River Falls State Normal School is
emphasizing the thought that the
women Of the land must prepare to
do well much of the work that has
formerly been cared for by men,
who are now are at the front.
One of the young women of the
state, who has already caught the
vision is Miss Nina LOOMS of Gil
manton, who has just completed a
course in agriculture, her list of
studies including Dairying, Farm
Crops, Weeds d Seeds, Farm
Mechanics, Agricultural Pedagogy,
and Farm Management.
In this work, Miss LOOMS work
ed with the rest of the class on a
perfect basis of equality. She milk
ed the COWS to get the samples for
the milk, cream and curd tests, in
yestigated farm crops for traces OF
smut, Stripe ergot and other di-
seases, learned how to tie and to
use all the practical knots needed
for farm work k, mixed concrete.
made concrete forms and made an
accurate plat and a survey of her
fathers farm, $40 acre tract OF
sandy loan, near Gilmanton.
AS a part of her practical work,
she took complete charge OF pig
project while she was In school,
mixing the feed, feeding the pig
and actual school credit for the
successful way in which she carried
on and completed the project.
Miss LOOMS is a native b o n
Wisconsin girl, who is now contin-
uing in way that is both practical
to her and to Wisconsin, the good
times she had as a Tomboy girl on
her fathers farm, as pupil IN the
high school and as teacher in the
rural schools of Wisconsin. 1t is
needless to say that the Badger
State needs more of the same kind,
more women with the same vision
and with application and energy
enough to convert the dreom into
real preparation for the work that
just must be done right h er in
Wisconsin, if our boys and our girls
are to receive the training h e y
must have for the work that is to
done in these strenuous war times
and in the days of the reconstruc.
ton period that will follow the close
of the war.

fESIackers''

The word Stacker is practically
product of very recent y G a S, a
search of the older dictionaries fails
to reveal that it had been in use as
q noun until about the time of the
commencement of the present war
but the noun has come into very
general use during the war First it
was applied to those men of mill
tarY age who failed to respond to
the call of their country, it was then
applied to men of sufficient ability
who failed to support their country
financially. AS time has gone on and
It has become apparent that there
is work for every person in every
community to do in assisting the
Allies in winning the war The
term has now come to be applied to
any person who does not do every
thing within his power to further
the interests Of this nation and its
Allies. Applied locally any able
bodied man who does not offer his
services to save the crops and who
does not whenever called respond
willingly in assisting in saving the
crops is "slacker.' Any man who
knowing of the Red Cross beet field
who is able to work, who fails to
appear on the field and assist in
airing for it is a "slacker"; they
should not wait to be drummed up
and urged TO do what is so appar-
emily their duty. Men of very ad-
vanced years have already been in
the sugar beet field doing all they
could while able bodied men, citi-
zens of the United States have teen
disgracing our curb stones and dry
goods boxes along the Main ST.,
with their personal when e y
should be at work, these men are
surely "slackers''. Names could be
mentioned but it is entirely unnec-
essary as the slackers are branded
in the community and if they ex-
pect to retain the respect of their
fellow citizens d deserve the
rights of citizenship after the war
it would be we'll for them to bestir
themselves and manifest a DISPOSE
tionto do their part.
