MAKING MONEY WITH MULES
Profitable to Buy Up Stock Animals
and Feed Them Over Winter-Let
Them Run Loose.

Any farmer who has an abundance
of corn and roughage can make money
by buying up stock mules in the large
markets and feeding them over winter.
They should be allowed to run loose in
roomy barns or sheds and never con-
fined IN stalls, as horses.

SAVE EGGS FROM BEST STOCK
Evidence Of Good Qualities When Fowl
Reaches 200-Egg Mark-Should
Be Perpetuated.

Eggs from the best hens should not
be eaten. When fowl reaches the
200-egg mark in a season, 1t is evi'
dence of qualities which ought to be
perpetuated Eggs from this kind OF
stock should go into the incubator.

be given direct employment now,
but yard and housing facilities be-
ing increased rapidly Enrolment

records of meI who are merely ex-
pressing patriotism, but who, when
it comes down to business, are not
going to be able to work where thev
may be needed. No obligation exists
to respond to a call when 1t comes;
the reserve merely presents the OBJ
portunity, trusting to the judgment
and patriotism of its members to lead
them to acceot, if they should accept.

the war savings certificates, which
correspond to our war savings stamps,
these committees were made a drv
ing part of the bond campaign. Their
watchword was: Think before you
spend.' and thcp appeal was to put
into the governments obligations the
money saved by curbing useless spend
inP
In devising the next fiscal pro
gramme the government decided
against a short and active campaign
for bond sales. They placed on sale
on October 2, 1917, series of four
National War Bonds at two rates of
interest and with different redemp-
ton dates. The goal set for the sales
was 25000,000 week. No particular
advertising campaign was undertaken,
although the newspapers published
continual references to it and the
financial agencies and brokers' Offices
kept it to the fore.
1t has been on the market year,
and, so far as the records available
show, the sales have not reached $685.
100000 IN a single week. This fact
speaks loudly for the necessity of just
such policies as have been adopted by
the United States government, of brief
sales periods, in which the people are
reused to the utmost to the vital things
Of the war.
Our record was reached in the third
'oan, when every American, regardless
of age or citizenship, became creditor
of the United States to the extent of
S39.70 of the third series That record
will be far surpassed in the next three
weeks.

tumn season advances. For the i'm
mediate present the money market is
entirely concerned with the neccs-
sty of providing for full sub
scription to the war loan. Banks
are carefully scrutinizing requests
for credit, while the marketing of is
sues Of capital already authorized
but not yet distributed will cease
from Oct ober l until the close of the
loan campaign. Rates in the money
market are at the present time on q
general level with the highest fig
ures quoted since our entry into the
war, but It is gratifying to record
the cooperation that is being given
the banks by borrowers in their ef-
no stringency may. occur An ex-
ccedingiy difficult duty has been
placed upon the bankers of the ma
tion, and the way in which borrow
ers generally have co0perated in
bringing about a real conservation
Of credit is only another manifesta-
tion of the native adaptability and
the deep and practical patriotism of
the American people.
In connection with the money
market it is interesting to note that
the banks have already bought
Treasury certificates of indebtedness
Of the latest series sufficient to cover
as much as rs per cent of the COM
ing payments for the Liberty Loan.
in other words, large portion Of
the money being borrowed by the
through the present
operation has already been advanced
by the banks.

Defend Yourself
With Liberty
Bonds

This is not only a war
for democracy and Lib
erty, but a war Of self-de-
fence. Germany menaces
our rights, our self-respect,
our homes, and our means
of livelihood.
Every citizen - every
business man-has weap-
ons Of defense ready to his
hand. These weapons are
Liberty Bonds. We cannot
all fight with guns and bay
onets, but we can all fight
with Liberty Bonds.

Buy to Your
Utmost

Of course you will buy
Liberty Bonds. Every one
will. But how many will
YOU buy? The success of
the Fourth Loan and of the
war itself depends on your
answer to that question.
Buy all the bonds you
can. Go to your bank arsl
make your arrangements.
Buy more than you ever
thought you could buy.

These words appeared in speech
made by David Lloyd George, then
Britains Chancellor of the Exchcquer'
in Seutember, 1914, q month after the
Great War began. Their application Is
lust as pertinent to-day, and to the
limited States, as it was in the late
summer of 1914 to the British Enplrc.
And that the belligercnts recognized
the ineffectivencss of men without
money is clearly shown by the fact that
one by one, as they entered the war,
they began to appeal for both almost
simultaneously.
In so far as the United States was
concerned, the government at Wash
ington took page from the book OF
European experience, and had launched
its first Liberty Loan campaign almost
before the first steps were taken toward
the organization Of the National Army.

War Financing

In a little more than four years OF
war the principal nations engaged have
raised q sum slightly in excess Of S7O,-
600, ,000 900 for war purposes by the
sale of their obligations, chiefly IN the
form of long-term bonds with fixed or
a minimum redemption date. The mar
keting of such vast sum in securities
an amount utterly impossible to place
in the hands of investors through the
usual peace time market channels-has
been q war problem equally as impor-
tant as that Of enlisting man power.
While there is a great diversity in
the methods employed by the financial
departments of the governments in
volved, il getting the loans out to the
public and seeing to it that they are
absorbed - llivcrsities due largely to
differences IN national business meth
DDS and temperament - three cardl-
nal arguments and appeals have run
through the bond campaigns in all the
countries These are patriotism, desire
for wealth and the sense of help or
protection for the men of the family
or friends who are in armed service.
These three main points are sus-
ceptiblc Of division or sub division into
commands Of duty, appeals to pride
or fear, exhortations to emulation or
to courage OF to the will to win. Eng
land struck new note last spring
when the subscriptions to the national
war bonds were gradually falling off.
One Monday morning, every reader
when he opened his newspaper at the
breakfast table found this message
meeting his eye across the first page:
an the good old days the state
demanded arms and ships. To-day
you are only asked to lend the money
to buy them"
1t put tho people of free state on
their honor by telling them in another
way that on them depended victory
or defeat. 1t put an old thought in
new dress, and the result was an
immediate and quite appreciable in
crease in The bond sales.
The best brains in all the belligerent
countries have had a part in developing
the bond sales campaigns. Very early
in the war it was recognized that the
conflict, on both sides, must be made
an issue for the whole of the national
body; that every man, every woman
and every child must be made to realize
that its prosecution depended in some
measure on his or her active support.
The burden could not be carried by the
wealthy alone. although in all of the
countries involved, except in Germany,
the people of wealth have been COM
PEELED to bear burden in direct pro-
portion to their monetary ratings. This

ever, through revised methods of tax
alton on graduation of incomes and
has no relation to the general distribu-
tion of governmental obligations.
Some difficulty was experienced by
all the states in enlisting the support
of the masses Of the people This is
generally attributed to the fact that
only limited group had been accus-
toned to bond investments and knew
their advantages. France, alone Of the
warning powers, had population with
experience in such affairs; but there,
rentes have had their place in the
economic life of virtually every family
since 1871. And it was Germany then.
