last Friday afternoon. The hose cart

Owners Of thrashing outfits are
urged by the United States department
Of agriculture to install simple equip

smut dust explosions and fires which
cause enormous losses to grain and
machinery during the thrashing sea-

when the machine is operating has
been fouAd to be very explosive and

The Call to Action.

The test Of life is action. The rea-
son why some fail where and when
others succeed Is because some go
forward to new and untried expert
ments in the art of living, while others
those who do not succeed-stay in
side their customary limits.
In these prophetic days there have
been some startling revelations.
Men and women who have never
done anything, and nd not suppose
they could do anything that was not
habitual and commonplace, have
been startled into activity and sur
prised into successful enterprise.
When all the world was In motion
they were compelled to move, end
when their one talent was demanded
they threw 1t into the common treas
ury, and 10 I II became two.

Public Health Notice.

All cases of mumps. whooping cough,
and all other contagious diseases must
be reported to the Health Officer, and
children having these diseases must be-
kept at home and not allowed to be on
the public walks.
Many diseases are spread by means
of flies, and the presence of these IN or
about house is constant menace to
the health of the inmates. Infantlle
paralysis is one of the diseases spread
by means of flies. Typhoid Fever is
another. Hence the Importance of the
slogan Swat the Fly"

BIG LOSS FROM RODENTS

prepared by the United States De-
partment of Agricultural
Native rodents are the cause
of enormous losses in many
states. Some idea Of the loss
suffered by individual states is
shown by reports from state d.
rectors of agricultural extern
sion work. For example, the loss
in Montana was from SIS, 900
to $20,0O0,OO0; North Dakota,
s6,OOO,0O0 to 100000; Kansas,
$12,000,000; Colorado, $1,000
900; California, $20,000,000;
Wyoming, Is per cent Of all
crops; Nevada, 10 to Is per cent
Of all crops, or $1,000,O00; New
Mexico, S1,20O,000 loss to crops

Dust Explosion.

method of grounding the machines to
remove the electricity, consisting of
wires connecting the metallic parts
with the ground. An automatic fire
extinguisher also has been developed
and has proved very effective in re-
ducing fire losses. A suction fan placed
near the cylinder has been found to
be successful not only in reducing the
amount Of dust In suspension In the
machine, thereby removing part Of the
danger of explosion, but is an impor
tant factor in cleaning the grain and
increasing its market value. Complete

With women taking the place Of men
workers, conditions In many parts OF
the country are undergoing a remark
able change. This is most noticeable
In parts where woman land workers
are making their homes.
The Woman's Institute is largely re-
sponsible for the movement. which Is
gradually revolutionizing village life,
making It more attractive and stimu-
lating a sense Of citizenship. In con-
junction with the food production de-
partment, a parliamentary meeting is
called which elects a democratic COM
mittee representing farmers wives,
cottagers and landed women, who
thereafter manage affairs, arranging
for monthly social gatherings where
useful lectures are given, exhibitions
Of housecraft or gardening skill held.
and old, treasured recipes and house.
hold hints exchanged.
Several hundred villagers already
have their committees and the food de-
partment Is inundated with demands
for organizers and lecturers.
Why Soy Bean Flour Is Valued.
What would you think of slice of
bread that has the same food value as
q beefsteak sandwich?
It isn't dream or an exaggeration.
1t Is fact supported by specialists of
the United States department of az
riculture. 1t is based on chemical
analysis of and experiments with soy
bean flour, new" product that is ex-
pected to pinch hit" for wheat, and
not only to do that, but to work in
meats place as well. The high-pow-
cred bread that has the scientific re-
semblance to beefsteak sandwich
does not even use all of the voltage"
of the soy bean -four. This bread has
been made from mixture of 80 per
cent wheat flour. 1t is extremely high
In the protein element and Is, really a
substitute for protein foods such a.
meat and cheese.

A WORD TO PRoFITEE0s
BY President Wilbur of Stanford
University.

This is no time to talk of money
or of profits, for the world is using
a new medium Of exchange today,
in order to obtain that liberty. free
dom and justice which 1t demands.
That medium OF exchange is the
precious blood of men and boys, the
best that we have, and we are send
ing them by the hundreds, yes, the
hundreds of thousands. They go
forth singing: "As He died to make
men holy, let US die to set men
free" The man who comes out Of
this war with one dollar more than
he had when 1t began has taken It
from the blood of the>men who died
for him. May God forgive him!
The American people never will.

calibre is In the barrel. In man it IL
in the brain.
The caIibre of man Is determined

He also claims allegiance with God.
