FATALLY BURNED
DISTRESSING ACCIDENT TO LIT
TIE LUCILLE DOUGHERTY.

Lucille D~ougherty, aged 13 years,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. ].
Dougherty, died at the Madison hos
pital at 1880 o'clock this morning,
the result of burns received Saturday
evening. The circumstances are that
the little girl was at the home of Mr..
and Mrs. John Brene, a mile or two
from the Dougherty home, IL miles
southwest of the city, during the abb
sence of Mr.. Brene in Chicago. Sat-
urday evening about Z o'clock she
was frying potatoes on an ordinary
cooking stove when the grease in the
frying pan burst into flames, the
burning grease exploding and satur-
ating a light MILDLY which the little
girl was wearing which also burst in
to flames. The child was terribly
burned about the face, breast, abdo-
men and arms. Drs. Kellogg and AL
lison were summoned and as soon as
possible brought her to the local hos
pital, where the physicians, assisted
by DR.. Grove, of Dell Rapids, gave
proper attention and remedies, but
their efforts were of little avail. Aft
er the dressings the child was with
out pain from her injuries, but the
shock was great and certain vital or
gans refused to perform their func-
tons, resulting from the widespread
burns, and after lingering until 4:30
O'Clock this morning she passed
away.
The j. J. Dougherty family of eight
children resided in the northeast por-
ton of Madison until last spring
when they removed to the farm they
now occupy, Lucille vas the third
child in age. ID. F. Dougherty, of
this city, is a brother of Mr.. Dough-
erty.

THE GOVERNMENT
AND THE FARMER

In his message of January 81 to the
farmers Of America, President Wilson
points out the great governmental
agencies and instrumcntalitics in the
field of agriculture.
Our Department of Agriculture, he
states. is the greatest practical and
scientific organization in the world
and its total annual budget of four to
six million dollars has bccnc increased
during the last four years more than
72 per cent. It's staff numbers $4,000
and includes many highly trained eX-
pertS., The agricultural colleges and
have total endowment of plant
equipment of $172, 100000 and an an
nual income Of more than $35 1000, 900.
Ten thousand two hundred and sew
cnty one teachers with 125,000 stu
dents, together with vast number re-
cciving instruction at their homes,
evidence what is being done in the
way of agricultural training, and to
these may be added the 255 men and
women working under The Smith-Lcv-
er Act.
The banking Legislation of the last
two or three years. the President
shows, has given the farmers access
tothe great lendable capital of the
country, and through the Federal Re-
serve banking system and the Farm
Loan banking system farmers can OBJ
tain the credit, both short and long
term, to which they are entitled and
which it is imperatively necessary
should be extended to thm to enable
them to perform adequately tbs tasks
The president touches on another
aspect Of the relations between the
farmers ana the Nation-"The toll,
the intelligence, the nergy, the fore
sight, the self-sacrifice, and, devotion
of the farmers Of America Will, be-
lieve, bringto triumphant conclusion
this great war;"

THE WAR FINANCE
CORPOR RATION

The bill recently introduced in Con-
gress for the creation of the "War
Financ eCorporation" with capital
stock of five hundred million dollars,
all Of which is to be subscribed by
the United States, should be regarded,
says Secretary of the Treasury Nc
Adoo, primarily as a measure to en-.
able the banks, both national and
State banks and trust companies, to
continue to furnish essential credits
for industries and enterprises ncccs-
sary or contributory to the prosecu-
ton of the war.
The Government has made and is
making through the Liberty Loans
capital Of the country that the banks
often have been prevented from Civ
ing needed help to private entrpriss,
som of which arc performing vital
service in connection with the war.
The War Finance Corporation is de-
signed as war measure to give re-
lief from this condition during the
period of the war and Secretary Nc
Adoo asserts that the mere existence
of the corporation would Of itself do
so much to maintain confidence that
its actual aid would be necessary only
in relatively few cases.
This is no hastily conceived lcgis-
lation. Secretary McAdoo has taken
the most sXpert advice available and
the methods adopted in the other
countries at war have been thoroughly
studied. The proposed law cmbodies
the basic principles Of similar laws
which have been tried in Europe It's
purpose is to attain the most efficient
use Of our country's tremendous fin
ancial resources for the Government
and for private enterprises, which are
all necessary to the welfare of the
country and our success in this War.

ALL AMERICANS CAN SERVE

Every man, woman and child in this
country, who wants to serve the coun-
try, can Servn it in q very simple and
effective way, Secretary McAdoo
says. That service els to lend your
money to the government. Every 25
cents loaned to the Government is a
help at this time and practically every
man, woman and child by making
some trifling sacrifice, some denial of
pleasure, or giving up some indul-
gcnce, can render the Government
that support.
Every rs cents will do something
to help a wounded American soldier,
wounded fighting for the American
people and American liberty. Every
cent loaned the Government con-
tributes something for the safety and
strength and success of our soldiers
and sailors, equipping them, maintain
ing them, clothing them, feeding
them, and giving them artillery and
ammunition and al things needed for
their efficiency and triumph.
The Secretary Of the Treasury saws
this question is before every Amri-
can-"Are you willing to help the
fighting men of our nation, and in
helping them to help yourselves? ? Are
you willing in helping them and help
ing yourselves to make liberty su-
premc throughout the world and to
make the atrocities, the Infamous and
unspeakable crimes against civiliza-
ton committed by Germany impossi-
bic forever in the future?

The samples from ms rancn arrived by parcel post on one of the last boats. Just two apples came in the package, but they were such mammoths that the postage on them and the little piece or corruga led cardboard around them' as shown by the stamps, totaled 2S cents, argument enough of the weight and soundness of the big fellows. They blush like the cheeks of a Dawson girl at dawn of a Sep tember morn, and rival such Vii sion in beauty.

It is but repetion of the ruse they adopted or driving refugees in front of their attacking columns in the earlier stages of the war.
 It possesses no tings of origin ality. It is merely an exhibition of the low cunning of the more de- graded type of criminal mind. It will no. even achieve it's purpose.
