who were tho most serious OF the

WHEAT, THE SAFE CROP

Because of the recognized need for the raising of
as large a quantity of wheat as possible this year it is
sstne duty of every farmer in the country to produce as
s$innch wheat as possible, just as it is the duty Of every
ether person to save as much wheas as possible. and to
produce as largely as possible Of the things which he is
able 70 produce and Of. which the nation is in need. This
iyaa duty which must be performed, and which will be
sssssEf9Fnled. by every patriotic citizen. regardless of his
sHysfaF Befsonaf conpe nience.&a and with as little regard for
.ahis personal profit as is consistent with the bare posi-
bIIisies of the case. The patriotic man will ask himself
first, not how much money he can make by aiding to
supply this or that national need, but how much Of that
need he can supply with the means at his command.
ASIDE from this duty, which cannot be ignored. the
SsIhariner has, as an economic proposition, the choice
Among several crops. But as the situation stands today
sshe can not only meet the national need by planting the
SNMlArgest possible acreage of wheat, but he will find In
the wheat crop the safest crop that he can raise this
s4ysars because II Is the only. one Of the major farm crops
which he can depend with certainty on q definite
price Der bushel.
NXs The government has fixed the price Of wheat for
ssthts ysar ON q basis 5of s2.2o per busheI. which is 20,
RNgesnts higher than The minimum fixed 81 congress. II

to come across anything of the sort in our reading, nor
from, the public platform. or in any other way. If such
q statement has been made, We have no hesitation in
saying that the person who has made it is a liar.
The farmers of the country. taking them as a group,
are loyal to the nation. So are the merchants, and the
oiacksn,!ths. and the lawyers, and the plumbers, and the
doctors. and the bankers. The people Of these groups
activities of the country, have no need to declare their
loyalty by word of mouth. They have demonstrated it
and are demonstrating it daily by their acts. Whether
on the farms. in the shops, in the stores in the counting
houses. Or wherever they are. they are sending their
own flesh and blood to the front to stem the tide of
tyranny; they are willingly giving Of their substance in
support of the cause of right; they are making sacri-
fices and are putting forth valiant efforts. They are
doing these things because they feel themselves to be
in Very truth part and parcel of the great democracy
Of the world, and because they recognize the obliga-
sions which rest upon them. AL honor~to them all, of
them. ~ @
But the fact that all Of these groups, Ataken as
groups, are loyal, does not change the fact that in each
OF them are to be found some who are disloyal And
when there are found those who place personal ease or
private advantages above the duty that honorable men
owe to the world and the race no matter what their
occupation. they are dsloyal, and all the protestations
that are made in their behalf cannot change that fact.

drop far below the present level. No assurance is given
OF any particular price. But the, farmer knows now
that II nc raises this year a given number OF bushels
or wheat of a given grade, he viii, receive not less than
1870 at the terminal for it. There is no such assurance
with reference to any other crop. 1t follows that in
performing the work which the government most needs
to. have performed. the farmer is at the same time pro-
tecting his own interests in the. best possible manner.

DENlALS OF DlSLOYALTY

?. .A!N COMBAT RECURRENCE
 0F ANTHRAX
(By Associated Press)

SACRAMENTO, Cal, Jan. 24.-Data gathered while the anthrax outbreak in California was being combatted last year has been assembled for proven tive campaign by which Dr. Charles Keane, state veterinarian, hopes to forestall possible recurrence of the infection in the late summer and early autumn of 1917.
 The outbreak last year was worse than in any previous year, and would have been a disaster to stockmen had it not been for the fact that the en- larged state sanitary police force pro- vided by legislative action was ample to cope with the situation" Dr. Keane said today.
 pr. Keane said the disease was spread principally by biting flies" and irrigation water from rice lands. The water carried the Iarva from in fected premises into new fields he said.
 A record has been made of all premises infected last year and repres- entatives of the state veterinarian have begun a campaign of education among the stockmen and are aiding in vaccinating stock to make them immune.
 Statistics gathered by Dr. Kane show that the infection occurred between August l, 1917, and the present date, on 312 premises. Complete data was gathered concerning 145 of these. The total number on animals on all the infected premises was 622O9, of this number 37,455 were vaccinated. Two

 The Cache Creek district continued to the principal source of placer gold in the Yentna basin. The fnaccessi- bility of placers on Cache creek has made mining there very expensive, but a new wagon road from Talkeetna. on the government railroad, to Cache creek, which is now under construc- tiOn, will soon afford a quick and easy approach to the district. A dredge burning local coal was operated on Cache creek and 15 hydraulic plants were working on Cache and Peters creeks during the summer Over 100 men were employed, producing placer gold valued at between $125. 900 and $1SO,O00. Operations at the end Of the season were hampered by protracted rains and serious floods, which caused considerable damage to several min ing plants. Late in the fall a Hudson Dry dredge was installed on ground along the north side of Kichatna river, at the mouth of Nakochna river, to be- gin mining in the spring of 1918. Some prospecting and mining were done in
 the Camp and Lake Creek basins Along the lower Kahiltna river pros pecting for platinum was carried on by one company at two localities-one
 about miles below the mouth oi
 Peters creek and the other a short distance upstream from the mouth oi the river. A hand drill and two power
 drills were used in prospecting the river bars, about 12 men having beer employed in this work. The prospect ing is to be continued next season.
