THE BEST INVESTMENT IN THE
WORLD

From whatever angle it may be con-
sdered, an investment by an Amer
lean citizen in Liberty Bonds or War
Savings Stamps is the best investment
in the world
The money so invested goes to the
Government, which loans some of it
to our allies; all of it is used in one
way or another to maintain, support,
arm, equip, and make victories our
armies and our allies in Europe Sure
ly no American money could be put to
better purpose. Here is an invest
ment in the power and success of our
country, an investment in the eflic-
iency, strength, safety, and success of
our fighting men on sea and land.

Generous Man

One Of the Red Cross workers of
the county, who was in town Satur-
day reporting progress to headquar-
tiers, brought the information that one
of the men in their district, when ap-
preached by the Red Cross Committee,
gave the magnificent sum of 5 cents
one jitney-for the relief of our boys
in France. The man who set himself
up this peculiar monument is worth
several thousand dollars and is re-
cognized as a prosperous citizen.
Such whole-souled, open-hearted
generosity should not go unrewarded,
or, we should say, unpunished.-May-

WHAT THE BULL ASSOCIATION
CA ND0

Fortunate is that dairymen whose
carefully selected herd has a good
bull at its head. A good bull gets pro-
ductive daughters. Such daughters
greatly excel their dams. The dams
may be selected scrubs, the daughters
become productive grades, and the
granddaughter high grades of very
large production. That is intelligent
constructive breeding, and it is what
takes place in every well-managed CO.
operative bull association. The bull
association combines low investment,
light maintenance, and large returns.

USE OF WOMEN on FARMS

AS to the use of women on the
farms, the department recognizes that
they can be of great value in certain
minor tasks, but the department be-

in the towns and cities can be releas-
ed by the substitution of woman labor
temporarily, the needs of farmers will
be supplied and there will be little
demand for woman labor on the farm
except for the lighter tasks. Clar-
