The sad drowning of two little girls
Sunday has brought to the attention of
Moscow people the need of a place for
young and old to enjoy bath without

saved The question was discussed at
the luncheon of the chamber of COM
merce yesterday and an effort will be
made to secure natatorium for Mos
COW. The movement should meet with
the hearty support of all.

THE PEOPLE IN THE WAR.

st. Louis (MoJ GlobeDemocrat:
Something to be kept steadily in mind
during present and possible future dis
cussions Of official responsibility and
capability, is that the people have been
doing their fun part In no instance
| have the people failed in response to
any appeal. Notwithstanding such re-
| sponsiveness, the country is filed with
| the shouts Of persons crying out against
what is termed apathy" and "a want
| of understanding" of the fact that We
are at war. This is Of the essense OF
subimed assinnity. Facts and figures
| dsprove it. In the oyersubscriptiOn of
two issues Of liberty bonds, in the fl
nancins Of the Red Cross and the Y.
| NJ. c. A., in the sale of short-time GER
tiGicates, and in responses to every ap-
| peal made to the public, there is assur-
ance that the people understand that
We are in war and that every man must
do his duty.
Perhaps no more striking evidence or
| this fact is to be found than anybody
| can dig out of the statistics OF the
! department of agriculture. 1t was in
the very beginning Of the second quar-.
! ter of 1917 that our declaration of war
was made. During months before the
| date Of that declaration, however, Ger
man aggression against neutral rights
ana international law had convinced all
! thinking men that war was inevitable
! During the same months there had
been constant agitation Of the vital need
Of greatly increasing the volume of
! food supplies raised in this country
The department of agriculture took the
| leadership in that movement The
Globe-Democrat traced its development
in increasing acreage. Now the Of
fetal report Of the department cover
ing the year 1917 shows that the re.
sponse was much greater than had been
expected or even hoped for.
The year 1916 yielded a total food
crop value of a little less than $l3,-
O0O,0O0,O0O That was about $4,000, ,OOO,.
600 i'm excess of the food crops of 1915.
But the value of the food crop of 1917
was S6O0JOOO0O0 greater than that Of
1916, or was in round figures, $4,000
100000, an increase OF more than thirty
per cent. A part of this can be ac-
counted for by advancing prices, but
more than half of it must be credited
TO increased production. Decrease in
cattle production in the West was
checked, i'm 1917, the value of these
products over 1916 increasing to the
extent Of $l5OO. 600 900. And the acre.
