WOMAN'S LIBERTY LOAN
COMMITTEE.

This is the fore-runner of a
series Of letters to be sent every
little while by the National Wo-
mans Liberty Loan Committee.
These will tell you something Of
how the vast sums of money ap-
propriated for the prosecution Of
the war are being spent, by the
Government.
The money we pay out and
what we get for it is a fair state
ment Of our war program and OF
our national achievement SO far,
and indicates definitely the mag
nitude Of our undertaking, the
giant scale of preparation and the
standard we have set for ourselves
in this grim struggle to preserve
our national life and the civiliza-
tion Of the world. What we have
done SO far points to what is be-
fore us-what we must do week
by week and month by month till
IN normal fimes-in peace
times-it costs about billion
dollars year to run the Govern
ment. For the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1918, Congress approp-
rated in round numbers, includ-
ing deficiencies, $1S,882, 600, 900.
For 1919 Congress has appropria-
ted in round numbers at the pres
ent session, including deficiencies
and appropriation bills pending
$24, O.0O0, 600.
The mind is often confused over
. : appropriations" and "expendi-

tions fix the limit of what may be
used Then the Governments

RAILROAD DRIVE
EFFORT TO SAVE SOFT CORN BY
RUSHING 1T TO MARKET.

Aberdeen, Feb. Especial: In
order to save the large amount of
soft corn in this and surrounding
states, the railroad companies are
expediting the movement OF box cars
from the eastern territory into the
corn belt, according to information
telegraphed to C. N. Herreid, federal
food administrator for South Dakota,
by Herbert Hoover.
Mr.. Hoover urges Dakota farmers
to take advantage of this railway
drive to secure a larger movement OF
all grain which has been retarded by
car shortage. Owing to the wealth
er and the car shortage" he says,
1--WE have been short during Deem
Der and January $4,000, 900 bushels
per month in the amount of cereals
that should be shipped from America
to the Allies. The consequence is
that the stocks Of foodstuffs of the
allied countries are being rapidly ex'
hausted and we must increase ship
ments. We therefore want to start
at nee a complete drive on the move
ment of grains from the farms to the
railways, laying particular emphasis
on corn and wheat"

Home WEDDING
MARRIAGE OF MISS MARY wIESE
TO MIR. HENRY KIERSTINE.

A very pretty wedding took place
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Fred
Wiese Wednesday evening, when
their daughter, Mary, became the
bride of Henry Kierstfne. Promptly
at S o'clock the bridal party entered
the parlor to the strains of Lohen-
grin's wedding march and took their
place under an arch Of smilax and
sweet peas where Rev. Argow. of the
German Baptist church, united them
in holy bonds of matrimony, using
the ring ceremony. After congratu-
lations were extended the guests
were seated at a three course 6
O'Clock dinner which was served by
the Misses Bertha and Clara Bau-
man, Edith Cook and Alma Kierstein
The center piece of the dining table
was made of individual wedding
cakes forming n large heart with
the brides cake in the center.
The bride wore a pretty gown OF
white lace and tulle with pearl and
gold bead trimming over crepe dc
chine. She wore a veil of tulle
caught up with orange blossoms and
carried a shower bouquet of creamy
pink and white roses. Her colors
were yellow and white. Miss Anna
Wiese, a sister, acted as bridesmaid
and wore a dress Of white wolfe ant
lace. Mr.. Arthur Kierstein, a cou
sin of the groom acted as best man
About SO relatives and friends were
present. The young couple have
lived near Madison all their lives anC
have known each other since child
hood. They have a large circle Of
friends wish them much success ant

March 10 and ending March 81.
There will be meetings held every
night between these dates, which are
also inclusive. Each church will
hold its regular Sunday morning
services in its own building as usual.
Prof. L. G.. Atherton, as chairman
of the county fuel administration,
had outlined a program for the BUSH
ness houses of Madison, designed to
assist in the conservation of fuel, at
the meeting of the Madison Mer-
chants association Wednesday night.
A schedule of time for opening and
closing the various businesses was
arranged, but he later determined
that 1t was not wholly satisfactory or
consistent. He meets this afternoon
with the rest Of the board, F. j.
Mundt and H. H. Holdridge, to revise
and arrange an equitable schedule,
and will it later. 1t was
intended that the new order should
be effective Monday, but this is now
doubtful, as some time will be re-
quired by merchants for the arrange
ment of their affairs and to make an
nouncements.
The medical advisory board met
yesterday afternoon in the office of
DR.. HI. HI. Frudenfeld, and 10 men
from other jurisdictions presented
themselves on order from their
boards for examination. The record
of the examinations are in triplicate,
and there is space for the record OF
the examining physician of the local
board, one for the medical advisory
board and one for the physician who
examines them on arrival at the
training camp. The men examined
were Peter Lamp, Louis F. Schultz,
John E. Reeves, Rudolph Westby,
Robert Dixon, Walter Venner, Ernest
Rainne, Joseph T. Rensch and Ed
ward Miller who were all passed
Those who were conditionally recon-.
mended were Walter Schmidt and
John G. vanLanningham. Drs. Fru-
denfeld and Westaby conducted the
examination for the board.

Train SCHEDULES
VARIOUS COMMITTEES WORKING
ON RETURN TO FORMER
TRAIN SCHEDULES.

| The Merchants association and
Commercial club are still engaged in
an attempt to get a better train serv-
ice for Madison The matter was
again considered by the merchants at
their meeting of Wednesday evening,
and instructions were given Presi-
dent e. j. Sutton to name a commit
tee to act in conjunction with the
committee of w. Lowe, F. l.. Mease
and F. j. Mundt, of the Commercial
club.
President Springer, of the Sioux
Falls Commercial club, expressly
disclaims any responsibility on the
part of that body for getting the
change in time of the Chicago train
which makes the travel from the
south miss connections at hat city.
There had been a rumor, or at least
a suggestion, that it was due to the
efforts of this body hat the change
was made. But in view of the fact
that Sioux Falls is a strong bidder
for Madison mercantile patronage,
this did not look reasonable, and is
further supported by Mr.. Springer's
disclaimer. In fact, the Sioux Falls
4 Commercial club is somewhat exer-
cised over the situation, and would
gladly assist in an effort for the re-
instatement of the train schedule, it
is thought.
DR.. j. w. Heston, of the Madison
Normal, who went some days ago TO
attend a national educational conven
tion i'm Virginia, and who is influ-
entail among railway officials for the
Milwaukee road, is to stop off in
Chicago and confer with the heads
of traffic departments as to the pos
sibility of the returning to the former
schedule. Sunday, j. G.. Schultz,
Earle Kelley and VIM. Rowland will
go to Sioux Falls to establish some
form of coordination with the Com
mercial club there.
Another line of activity which
proved abortive was the attempt by
the local organizations to interest
the smaller towns at the north and
west i'm the matter. OF the many
towns on these lines there was only
one which responded, and Ii did so
by asking the very pertinent question
of why Madison did not object to de-
laying the time of the trains from
the cas- to SO many hours after the
train for the north had left Madison.
From this it appears that these
towns as well as Madison. have their
grievances, though not many of them
have the organization to offer objec-
tions or remonstrance, and are not
united enough to make any public
statement of their position. A con
fidence is expressed by the commit.
tees that they will be successful in
obtaining a readjustment of the
train schedules which will recon.
pense Madison in a measure for the
total removal of the midnight train
from service.

THE LABOR PROBLEM
AND THE FARMER

The most serious problem
that confronts this country the
Sc days is the labor and labor
prices problem. AS the form
er becomes scarcer, the latter
rise, until already in many Ines
the Workmen are drawing wag-
es that shame a Congressman's
salary.
We are told this is unaVoid-
able-but is it? When we get
a closeup view of the labor
conditions we are inclined to
believe much of the great rise
in wages is unnecessary. Not
that we would for one moment
oppose an honest wage for any
workman, but that all must adj
nit that the matter is becom-
ing serious.
Perhaps the most pernicious
in the labor situation
is the practice that has arisen
of competitive bidding for Ia
Dor. This is practically notice
able in industries engaged in
producing government supplies.
Whenever, in these industries
there arises any scarcity of the
labor supply wages are immed-
lately forced up a notch. 1t is
no uncommon thing to hear
men, who only short while
ago, found it difficult to earn
a dollar a day, boasting of six,
and eight and eagerly looking
out for offers even higher.
The natural result of these
conditions is that in many lines
labor has become so scarce as
to seriously threaten their con-
tinued operation. In many lines
these abnormal wages are
an impossiblity. 1t would
mean bankruptcy. But to some
extent they must be met, and

STEALING MULES

Jonesboro, July 15.-J. A.
and Henry Thompson, broth-
ers, ages about IS and 20, were
placed in Jail here today on a
charge of stealing three mules
and two saddles from John
Taylor and Tom Blake OF the
eastern part of the county
The boys were arrested at
Leaehville and the property
recovered. They admit their
guilt, having been caught with
the mules trying, it was said,
to dispose of the same.

citizen prefers his dog to his
sheep, and if he must be with
out either, the sheep must go.
Statistics tell US that this
country today is maintaining
25, 100000 dogs-an average
of one to every family in the
land. Placing the cost of
maintenance at a conservative
figure, these brutes will con-
sumo as much as half their
number of human beings, say
ing nothing of their depreda-
tions. This is equivalent to
feeding twelve and onehalf
million people or more than it
will cost us to feed every sol
der we will ever send to Fran
ce.
But the mere feeding of this
horde of useless animals is by
no means the big item. The
great expense lies in the great
menace which they constitute
to the sheep-raising industry.
We would not be SO unjust to
the CANNES as to allege that
all are addicted to sheep kill
ing, or even would be if there
were sheep available to be kill
ed. But the uncertainty as to
the guilty individuals brings
the whole race under suspicion.
However, this country is now
paying dearly for its devotion
to the dog. 1t is conceded by
all that his dogship is the one
great deterrent to the sheep in
dustry. In sections of the
country where the people have
had the wisdom to prefer the
sheep to the dog, prosperity
has been a welcome guest. But
these communities are rare,
and over a large part of the
country the dog ranges at his
own sweet will.
So long as wool was cheap
and easily procurable from
other countries, the question as
between the dog and the sheep
was not so pressing, and the
American householder could be
left in possession of his expen-
sive luxry. Now, however,
when the fleecy staple is con-
spicuous for its scarcity, the
decision should be put squarely
up to our people: THE dog or
the sheep-which ?"

Selfishness is the greatest
enemy of the human family. Ii
has wrecked nations, improv-
ished idividuals, caused power
ty, disappointed politicians and
filled jails and state prisons.
Our greatest trials are likely
to be not with our neighbors,
but with ourselves. Men must
learn to conquer self before
they can be victorious in So
ciety and for the state. And
unless one begin in youth there
is little hope of being master
of ones self.

The Socialist can no longer
claim that his theories are un-
tried. Russia has put them to
the test and it has resulted in
upsetting everything and has
thrown that country into a
chaotic condition that has
probably never been equalled
in any civilized country. 1t has
destroyed the right ofuroperty,
has abandoned marriage, has
denounced religion and defied
God. If there is anything left
in Russia which savors of san
ity it survives by accident.
