Your Bond Buys Explosives.

Many farmers here in America have
used giant powder or dynamite in
blasting out stumps and rocks and in
preparing a hillside for an orchard.
Explosives are dangerous TO handle
and we all duck our heads and run
when the charge is to be set off. Over
in France today our sons are having
the stuff hurled at them every minute
of the day and night with an occasion
al volley of gas shells that choke and
strangle to death and they don't dare
run. With the boys looking death in
the face over there, we can do no more
than look the issue squarely in the
face here at home and buy Liberty
Bonds and see that they are provided
with ammunition to return the kaiser
lust as good as he is sending across to
our trenches.

BUY LIBERTY BONDS
Democracy and Liberty Under
going the Supreme Test.
Americans Face Great Duties In Pro
vlding Food Products and Aiding
Our Soldiers and Our Allies
In War.
(ey HAPseuRe LIEBE Of the Vigil
iantes.)

(By HAPsBURo LIE8E Of the Vigil
iantes.)
Democracy and Liberty are not al
ways synonymous, perhaps, but they
mean the same to us now, certainly.
A military autocracy, after more than
forty years of thorough and cunning
preparation, a great part of 1t by means
OF weapons of our own invention, has
thrust our Democracy and our Liberty
into the crucible to test 1t out, to see
whether it would hold good. They did
not believe 1t would hold good, those
Prusslan militarlsts; they do not be-
lieve it yet. We believe it will, but our
belief has been made up heretofore
largely of egotism and blindness.
Democracy and Liberty, the worlds
with our own, is now undergoing the
supreme test. OF course there is dross,
and it is coming to the top rapidly.
There is inefiiciency, mismanagement,
grave mistakes that even our national
leaders have made; there has been
some graft, no doubt; there has been
some playing of politics; there has
been profiteering, but all this is only
the dross floating to the top of the
crucible. We were never a military
nation, you know. The biggest of our
mistakes, think, was in our shipbuild-
ing program, but we were never ship
building nation, either. However, this
dross is all being cleared away.
Fully 60 per cent of the winning of
this war depends upon us here at home.
We have three great duties upon us
now as we never had them upon us
before-those of us who can grow food
products must grow more than ever /;
we must all aid in the saving of foods,
and especially wheat, meats, and
sugar; and all of us who can, though
it may necessitate some sacrifice, must
buy these new Liberty bonds. Proper
ly carried through, these three great
duties will prove the overbalancing
power in the winning of the war, be-
yond a doubt. The growing of great
crops and the conservation of food,
and the buying of Liberty bonds, quick
ly mean enough food for our soldiers
and our allies, and enough ships to
carry it. If we fail in this the die of
destiny is quite likely to fall with its
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. upward for us; If
we do not fail, then Democracy and
Liberty will come out of the crucible
covered with glory. The result Is
inevitable.

WHO FIGHTS AT HOME? SAY |!
(ey ROLAND c. USHER, of the vie-
ilantes)

We cannot fight a war and still do
business as usual. This means you
and not other people. You might as
well come to 1t first as last. The war
is unusual and we shall have to have
unusual business to deal with 1t.
The gist of it is this: The nation
has just so many hands and just so
much energy-just so much raw mate
rial and labor. There are only "a
hours in the day and 1856 days In the
year We can make only so many
things In given time with a given
supply of time and material. If we
make some things we cannot make
others. If we put sugar into candy to
stuff idle women we cannot have jam
to feed the soldiers. If we make au-
tos for pleasure only, we cannot use
that material, labor and energy for
tanks and airplanes. If we burn the
gasoline on Sundays, the boys In
France cannot use it in battle.
The whole truth is that we must
stop business as usual. And-this Is
where you come in-you must stop
spending as usual. Do 1t now. Put
your money into gunpowder and not
face powder; into tanks and not limou-
sines; into food for the trenches in
stead of spending it in hotels and res
taurants. But you cannot buy directly
for the army. The government must
do 1t. Give the government the money
and BUY A LIBERTY BOND.

fact that the farmer is not Immediate
