Many rheasants in Lyon County

Lyon county ranchers report that
Monaghan pheasants turned loose
in favorable parts of the county
three years ago have become accli-
mated and have increased greatly
in numbers. They have not been
molested and in many instances
have become so tame that they min
gle freely with flocks of poultry in
ranchers' barnyards. 1t Is believed
sportsmen may indulge in pheasant
shooting in the county before many
more years.

CEPORTiilG A WHOLE NATION
Kaiser, in Action Toward Belgium, ls Partly Following Style First Set
 by King Sargon.

Only few years ago, comparative ly, the great King Sargon was keld by critics to be biblical myth, monarch who never ruled Assyria, but excava- tions in that ancient land confounded the alleged historical experts, says the Newark News. And now comes along no less an authority than John Dyne- ley Prince, former statesman of New Jersey. master of some twenty ancient and modern tongues, and head of a department in Columbia university, calling attention to the fact that Sar- gon first set the style of deporting a whole nation that is being partly fol- lowed by the kaiser in Belgium.
 It was some 2,600 years ago that Sargon carried the ten tribes of Israel out of the promised land and filled up their country with Arabs and tribes from northern Asia Minor, and he did such a good job that the Jews never came back. History, however, does not always repeat itself, as witness the return from captivity of the Jews released from Babylonia through Cy- rus the Persian.

NOT so MUCH READING
 NOW AS BEFORE WAR

One effect of the war and the con- sequent demand that is made on ev- erybody's time, is that there is not so much reading now as there was. One of teh states most profound students remarked the other day, q have not read book in three years" It is not an indication of lack of literary pro- gress or intellectual development, but simply that they have no time for reading. The man who can do public work has more of it forced upon him than he can perform, and the more aesthetic things of life are naturally neglected.

FOOD CONTROL ACT AUTHORIZES
REQUISIITONlNG OF WHEAT.

To secure a better understanding of
its purpose and authority for requisi-
tioning wheat, the Food Administra-
ton outlines the circumstances under
which such action has been taken.
Section 10 of the Food Control Act
authorizes the president to reQuisition
foods, fuels, and other supplies for the
Army, Navy, or any other public use
connected with the common defense.
Compensation is provided for. With
respect to foods and feeds, the presi-
dent has delegated his powers to the
U. S. Food Administrator who in turn
has authorized the Food Administra-
tors of the various states to act In his
behalf
Altho the power to requisition wheat
is sweeping in its scope, the Food Ad
ministration of Wisconsin has pre-
ferred to rely on the loyalty of Wis
consin wheat growers rather than use
force.
In outlining these facts, the Food AID
ministration of Wisconsin expresses
its desire that farmers who still have
wheat on hand place it on the market
at once.
A seed scarcity for the next crop Is a
remote contingency

ity League work.
She was the first woman to become a
member of the Leagues National Ex-
ecutive Committee, and Is secretary Of
the Leagues Committee on Patriotism
Through Education.
Mrs. Preston's message to the wo-
men OF the country reads In full:
proclaim Liberty"
Proclaim Liberty throughout ALL
THE LAND unto all the inhabitants
thereof
"These words were written about
1890 years before Christ, as part Of
the Law Of Holiness In the Book Of
Leviticus. Our fathers inscribed them
upon the Liberty Bell which called our
mighty nation into life.
To-day all the inhabitants enjoy
liberty, the Jew and the Gentle, the
rich and the poor, the native and the
alien-born, the weak and the strong.
The old Liberty Bell is silent, for its
voice has been heard throughout all
the land
"But Liberty Is not safe. It Is men,
aced along the battle fronts of many
nations, our own among them, and
America requires new motto for her
old Bell: Proclaim liberty through
out ALL LANDS unto all the inhab-
itants thereof Until liberty is safe
IN all lands, 1t can not be safe In our
own. Hence the task to which Amer
lea has reverently and unself1shly ded-
icated herself.
"Make Motto Real"
'4The Fathers Of this Republic, men
of many races, with q common love OF
liberty, wrought into law our ancient
motto, thus giving liberty chance to
enlighten the world.
To-day we, their descendants, are
called upon to make real the new
motto, and thus to give liberty the
undisputed right to bless the world
"This can be done but only after
heroic struggle and self-sacrif1ce. A
premature peace would mean failure.
It would be only less disastrous than
complete defeat. Against all tempta-
tons to compromise the women OF
"Peace and Safety"
"Victory means peace and safety
for our children defeat means hui
initiation and practical servitude for
them; while negotiated peace, with
the military machine OF Prussia un-
broken, means that everything in their
lives must be subordinated to the task
Of preparing for another war with
| Germany. We can win now If Amer
lea can be held steadfast and un-
swerving, and the women Of America
can hold her steadfast."
