U S MAIN SOURCE OF SUPPLY

We are at the beginning of the
most important investment period
that the world has ever seen. A
new world, phoenix-like, is about to
rise from the ashes of destructive
war. Just as our own Civil war went
far to purge the nation of sectional
ism, so the world-war has burned
away many barriers of narrow pre-
JUDGE which have hampercd COM
mercial and industrial expansion.
After a period when the people
of the United States have voluntarily
deprived themselves of wheat and
sugar in order to share with the
peoples of other countries, it is I'M
likely hat Kansas farmers will ever
again be obliged to burn their corn
while other nations suffer from
famine. Nor will western silver
mines be closed down while Orien-
tai countries have not enough silver
to meet their coinage requirements,
nor California crude oil be a waste
product, while cumbersome, extrava-
CANT, inefficient coal-burning ships
deple'e the worlds limited fuel re-
sources.

will supply. Teking into conqid~va-
ton their immediate availability, the
natural Of the United
States are far beyond that of any
other country on the globe. For
the nett few years it must, and will,
be the main source of supply of
many essentials TO meet the world
demand.
We believe that never in the his
tory of the world has any nation
ever had such an opportunity for
tremendous and legitimate profits
through cooperative efforts.
This is the time when you should
carefully consider your investments,
mastering all your j Ito ac-
tive service. The conditions and
outlook have changed, and in all
probability there are some changes
that should be made as promptly as
possible in respect to some of your
previous nvestments. There are pro.
badly some that you should sell or
Perhaps others you
should add to, as having a better
outlook now than when you first
bought. u

JOBS WAIT THE MEN

With each succeeding day there
is additional evidence that there is
no need to have concern over the
problem of finding jobs for the sol
d;ers whom they return from
v%iouslv waiting. According to the
Topeka CAPITAL. the Kansas State
Board of Agriculture intends to
sdopt a resolution urging that the
army be demobilized as rapidly as
possible in order that Kansas farm
ers may be assured of all the help
they will need next season. The
farmers of Kansas. says the Capital
have sown 10 900, coo acres to fall
erain-a record acreage-and there
will be more seeding in the spring
if help is available. Kansas au.hori-
ties want the boys sent back t.
their local boards to be mustered
out, thus landing them in the same
communities from which they were
drawn, and preventing congestion in
some parts Of the country and scar
city Of help in others.
The suggestion is a good one. The
men and the jobs will get together
if given a chance. The Federal
employment Service at Washington
has been working itself into a frenzy
of late over the greatness of its
task Of finding jobs for the men
and finding men for the Jobs. There
Is no need to worry. There will be
work even for the incumbents Of
the employment service If they will
resign their places on the govern.
-ent payroll. The country is 60
ing ahead as never before Let Of

CAN'T STAND THE KIDS

Heard a lady yell out a few days
ago, 81 wish that school would hurry
and start. I just can't stand these
kids" That is one thing that is the
matter with our schools, too many
parents send their children to school
to get rid" of them and not to
educate them. How can a kid stay
at home by himself? Mothers might
stay at home with him a little bit
anyway. Springer Stockman.
Ament Hutch certainly expresses
one of the main things that is the
matter with our schools. Lack of
cooperation in the homes, consisting
of knocking the school board, Cos
siping about the teacher and sug-
costing a lot of rot to the kids about
"the way they did when | went to
school," ninety-nine per cent Of
which ways" were antiquated, use
less and in restraint of education
twenty-five years ago, and inexcusa-

GRANT
Bayard Water Supply


The completion of the new water
line at Fort Bayard and the con-
Meeting of the same to the storage
tank at the post. has solved the
problem of a water supply for many
years to. come and will result in the
increase in the size of the big mill
tary hospital to meet the require
ments of the service.
A record in the laying Of the pipe
line was made, considering all the
circumstances. The project was ap-
proved by the War Department on
July II and the pipe began to ar
rive at Fort Bayard during the first
week of October. The entire seven
miles was laid in II days.

ed for war purposes are to be found
in all parts Of the country, and in

of buildings are still in process of

the Union Station are covered with
incompleted dormitories intended for
the vast horde of government clerks
which flocked to the Democratic pay

announcement was made that the
Springfield armory had been speed
ed up. Henry Ford's Eagles, which
were to put the kibosh on the sub
marine, materialized about two per
cent, and a large number of what
Daniels called his mosquito fleet
were found ineffective. Millions of
dollars worth of contracts have been
made and work begun upon them.
much of the material must ultimate
Iy be scrapped, and Daniels wants
to go right ahead with the expendi-
ture of 5000 cor, 900 for additions to
the Navy, although, unless he plans
to war on Great Britain and France,
have no pressing use for them.
II was estimated some time back
that Mr. Daniels failure to NIKE
the naval preparation authorized by
and held back by him
the war broke over us, cost
this country nearly half 4 billion
dollars because Of the Increased cost
Of materials. Fortunately for US,
we did get into war we were
able to meet emergencies bv draft
ing supplies from England and France,
lines and navies held the foe
back until we could send troops over
IN English snd French boats to co.
with our Allies. But the
cost to this nation of that two and
one-half years of drugged hiberna-
will turn out to be a stagger-
ing sum when the Republicans open
the books of the Democratic Admin
Istration.

Cooney Proves Mexican June
Corn Best for Dona Ana

Mr.. T. F. Cooney by his expert
ments in the variety test of corr has
decided that the Mexican June is the
corn for him in the future. He
planted two varieties, Iowa Gold
Mine and the Mexican June. The
Iowa Gold Mine was badly affected
by smut. and considerably damaged
by insects. II made a slow growth,
the stalk and ears were stunted. The
Mexican June on the other hand
with the same care and treatment,
planted on the same kind of soil,
and grown under the same condi-
tons as the Iowa Gold Mine, made
an excellent showing. The corn was
thrifty, stalk tall and straight, well
cared, very little showing of smut
or destruction by insects.-Las Cru
