me that the time is fully come when
we should have the heather Chinese

America how to abolish the liquor

to defend the use of tobacco and
they will advise their wives and

WASTE THAT EVERY
WOMAN SHOULD PREVENT

Keeping quality is OF vital impor-
lance in these days of high costs, and
low supply of food products.
No matter how high the quality of
an article purchased, if it lacks keep
ing quality it represents so much GER
tain waste.
This is noticeably true of Baking
Powders. A Baking Powder that is
effected by time or climatic condi-
tions-One that deteriorates is bound
to cause bake day loss Such a DOW
der not only necessitates using larg-
err amounts but invites failure
through its uncertainty. These pow
ders should be avoided. No matter
how big a quantity you obtain-no
matter how cheap they may seem be-
cause of low price they are expen-
sive as they waste in materials many
times more than saving of cost. Calu-
met Baking Powder is a quality Bak-
ing Powder with the greatest of
keeping quality. 1t retains its Won
derful leaving power-regardless of
how long il may stand on your pan
try shelf. You use but level teas
poonful when the can is first opened
and you continue to use the same
amount to the last spoonful. This
means economy in Baking Powder
and what is more important it means
economy in bakings. It's moderate
price combined with superior quality
and dependability marks the greatest
Of buying economy. You save when
you use it. And YOU save the mater
ials it is used with. It's economy, pu-
rity and unapproached keeping quail
ity keeps millions of women buvin~

other brands.

TO RAISE TWO MILLIONS

More than $4,000, 900 III cash be
fore July A is the aim of the "Dis.
ciples' emergency drive" for the
United States and Canada, in the
interests of which a conference of
500 ministers and laymen of Ken
lucky met at Louiville. This was one
of a series of one-day meetings th9t
began in Philadelphia March 5. Each
State is being organized by counties
and congregations under the direc-
ment of Cincinnati. TIE canvass will
be made April 1 to 6, except when
local conditions make later week in
the month better.
The total aim was S6,300,000.
most of which has been subscribed
in sums of $500 and more, payable in
five years. r. A. Long. of Kansas
City, gave 100000. Since Ameri-
ca entered the war such emergencies
have arisen in all the mission fields.
all the colleges and all benevolent
institutions and organizations that it
has been found impossible to wait
for payments of these five-year
pledges. The war emergency requires
the completion of the $6,000,000
fund and an extra million at once, it
is set forth.
To show the changed situation, it
is stated that before the war an
American gold dollar was worth
$3.50 in Chinese silver, now is worth
SLIT. Hospital supplies in the Phil
ippine Islands have advanced more
than 1000 per cent. on many neces-
stiles. Carbolic acid was then %
cents a pint and is now S3.25. Flour
for the missionaries in Africa is $40
a barrel and the trip out costs three
times what it did.
Over 1000 students from colleges
of Disciples have gone into the army,
causing direct loss in tuition of
$4,000, while supplies and labor are
costing the schools $4,000 more
than last year. To follow these boys
and other thousands from the same
churches and minister to their relig-
ious necessities in camps and cam
tonments will take 100000 of the
fund, il is stated.

IMPORTANT FUEL REGULATION

Coal dealers of Lincoln county
have received copies of important
regulations issued by the State Fuel
Administration. Special stress is
placed upon the fact that consumers
should lay up their supply for the
coming winter as early as possible.
Application blanks are being furnish
ed by local dealers in conformity
with the regulations of the Fuel Ad-
ministration. which declares that it
will be reluctant to assist those who
were able to secure their supply and
failed to do so. The regulations COW
ering the distribution of soft coal
such as is used chiefly here for fuel
are as follows:
1. Until further notice no domes.
tic consumer of coal or coke shall
purchase, receive, or otherwise take
possession of. more coal or coke thar
sary requirements prior to March 81
1919. If such consumer already has
a qauntity on hand he shall receive
only such additional amount as shall
make up his actual and necessary re-
quirements prior to that date.
2. No person, firm, association OF
corporation, whether acting alone oil
in conjunction with others, shall d.
rectlv or indirectly provide any do
nestle consumer of coke or coal be.
fore March 81, 1919. than is neces.
sary. with the amount already on
hand, to meet the actual and neces-
sary requirements of such consumer
prior to that date.
3. When an order is placed by a
consumer and before delivery can be
made on same consumer must GER
tify. on blanks to be provided by the
retail dealer, to the following infor-
nation:
(a) The amount of coal used by
him in the twelve months ending
March 81. 1918.
(b) The amount of coal the con-
sumer has on hand.
(c) The amount of coal needed to
meet his actual and necessary re-
quirements prior to March 81. 1919
Cd The amount of coal he has or
order and the name of the person
from whom ordered.
New consumers who are unable to
have their orders accepted by a deal
err should apply to the Local Fuel Ad-
ministration who should see that
their requirements receive attention
from the proper dealer.
Carload or barge-load lots shall
not be delivered to a single domestic
consumer or to a group of consumers
except with the permission of the
County Fuel administration.
The County Fuel Administration
may require, if they deem necessary,
on the first of each month a state
ment containing the names and adj
dresses of consumers to whom deliv-
cries have been made during the pre-
vious month of the quantity deliver
ed to each consumer.
Any dealer or consumer who vio-
lates the foregoing regulations will
be subject to the penalties prescrib-
ed by the Lever Act.
The purpose of the plan is to Sc
cure the broadcast and most equitable
distribution possible during the COM
ing year. The Fuel Administration
is assured by the representatives OF
the National Retail Coal Merchants
Association that the retail dealers
throughout the country will lend
their hearty co-operation in the per
Torrance of such patriotic services.

Hints for Autoists Who
Use an Electric Starter

Probably every motorist does not
know that for every second con-
sumed in starting q motor electri-
cally the generator must run at
charging speed for several minutes
to put the same amount OF current
back into the storage battery.
Elmer Rosengren of'the Nebraska
Storage Battery company explains
that an electric starter should not be
used to SHOW off" the power de-
veloped.
A few suggestions for use OF your
starting equipment may prove of
benefit:
/. Make sure your battery Is fully
charged and filled with pure water.
q Don't let your starter churn-
And out about gas and spark being
\riaht.
y. Always release your starter as

Automobile Club
Topics Of Interest

For years the Omaha Automobile
club religiously refrained from TAX
ing any political guardianship &C
ton on the question of good roads,
believing that the sole sphere of
work lay rather in encouragement,
cooperation and assistance in plan
ming with the county commissioners
and others, whose office has to do
with roads and road building.
At the Wednesday Board Of Di-
rectors meeting it was the unani-
nous sense of the directors that
the present situation as to both
county road building and mainte-
nance, and also the question Of auto
mobile thefts, demands the entrance
Of the club into politics on 4 non
partisan platform.
Good roads candidates, sincere In
their prediction promises, mean
good roads boosters. The motor
lists Of the city and the county Ger
tainly have right to know, and
we are convinced that 1t is the duty
Of the club to tell them, what kind
OF men they are voting to place in
Office to spend their money.
With this broad, public-spirited
view in mind. a meeting will be
called Immediately after the Fourth
Liberty loan drive, of members of
good roads committees of this club,
Omaha Chamber of Commerce and
Rotary club. with candidates for
county commissioner, county attor-
ney and police judge as guests.
Members OF the club who missed
out on the last club picnic should
keep in mind that the club Is going
to pull of shortly a unique stunt
in the form OF a liberty bonfire.

to ask members to bring along their

ment they play. and help make a

Cleaning Small Parts.

The proper method of cleaning
smlal parts about the chassis, such
as oil holes on the cross shafts Of
the brakes, the other brake connec-
tons, clutch connections, spark and
throttle connections, ETC., is to en-
ploy an oil can filled with kerosene
and a good stiff brush. By means
Of the can the kerosene can BE- d.
rected to any desired place, and after
the right amount OF the oil has been
squirted on to cut the dirt the stiff
brush will remove the debris. Par

Many Substations Are Done
Away by Broader Limita-
.tionS of the Power
Wagons.

at is due to the ability of motor
trucks to eat up distance that the
manufaqt urer and wholesaler, as we'll
as the large retailers, have been
liable td eliminate branches and sub
~ les that formerly tied up con-
<ble capital and labor" says
4. Opper of the Johes-Opper
6any.
This has resulted in concentra-
of equipment and facilities that
/ only reduces operating expenses,
lut eliminates duplicate handling of
goods.
i when the horse-drawn equip
nent was in its prime, it was found
that through the physical limita-
tons of horse flesh. it was necessary
to operate branches within the de-
livery radius. 1t used to be a COM
mon thing for manufacturers and
wholesalers to have a dozen ware
houses and branches at stated dis
tances. where duplicate horse-drawn
equipment was maintained. If a
consignment OF goods had to be
hauled a distance greater than the
horse-drawn equipment could make
it, on one trip, a change of horses
would be made so that the load
could continue on its way.
Through the unlimited service
radius of the motor truck and the
continuous performance it is cap
able of rendering, these branches
and sub-stations have practically
disappeared, resulting in releasing
labor for more essential work, as
we'll as curtailing the amount of
capital invested. Closer schedules
