The packing industry is one OF

The most common Of these are
cheese, tea and boiled milk. On
the other hand raw fruits, espec-
tally apples and bananas, also
graham bread and whole wheat

In the news reports of the Tus-
eania disaster, the reader was
again impressed with the quick
response of the Red Cross. 1t was
the Red Cross officials on the spot
who, by guaranteeing payment for
clothing, eablegrams, etc, had
the needs of the survivors at once
supplied from stores and Offices
in the towns where they landed.
without his assistance the men
must have waited several days or
hours, at least, ere supplies could
be had through the regular chan
nels and it's not likely many es-
capped from the fated ship with
more than light apparel and a life
preserver.

Congress needs to be bluntly
told that with fewer 'investiga-
tions there would likely be more
work done in speeding up war
preparations. The chief business
of administration officials lately
has been in giving evidence. Let
them 90 back to work. The cOun-
try can far better get along with
out lot of this secret informal
ton than to let the Germans have
it, anyway.

Soldiers Insurance.

For his own benefit and for tn,
benefit of his family, every enlist
ed man and officer in the army
and navy should take the full SO,
600 of insurance. Insurance of al.
most $4,000, 100000 has already
been applied for, but this great
total is only 4 beginning. Ameri-
ca s army and navy should be 100
per cent insured.
The necessity of prompt appli-
cation can not be emphasized too
strongly. Persons in service be-
fore October Is, 1917, must apply
on or before February II, 1918.
Those who joined after October
Is, 1917, have 100 days from the
date of enlistment in which to APP
ply.

ARE THE PACKERS PROFIT.
TEERINGg

The investigation into the pack
ing industry is threatening to
bring things 10 light, practices
that have been alleged and denied
many times. The most serious ac-
cusation against them is that the
five leading firms have divided
the territory of the country for
buying purposes, each firm refus-
ing to purchase from the territory
Of the others, thus completely
eliminating competitive buying.
This has been repeatedly charged
