CHEERING HARYEsTs.

The official crop figures for the end Of the
of the most encouraging description There general
improvement in condition during the past month"; and
the spring wheat harvest in particular has turned out
wonderfully we'll. This makes total wheat yield of
900 bushels which is Al per cent above the
crop Of last year and has only before been exceeded
At 2,777 T75OOO bushels the crop is considerably
below that of last year. but It is said to be of better
quality and in the further fact that it has been exceeded
only five times in record Of many years there is the
assurance Of abundance in the countrys great feeding
crop for cattle The oats crop, only little less important
than corn is the largest of record with only two
ceptions and in those the difference is slight
There has another great potato crop not far be-
low last years unprecedented yield Both the barley and
rye harvests are next to the largest ever known.
All this makes up year of plenty for normal times,
and for war times with their scarcity of labor and special
demands upon wheat in the feeding of great armies and
Allied peoples the exhibit is of much cheer for our
own country and the whole Allied western world.

ONLY a PRIVATE.
He was only private, a simple lad,
Who had never answered the, big
,o.lls o,lT.

He was only private, a simple lad,
Who had never answered the, big
worlds call;
Happy, contented with what he had
Living and loving, and that was all.
But he heard the summons the pa
triots hear
The ringing challenge to do or die
Which wrings mems hearts with a
craven fear
Or lifts them up to a purpose high!
He was only private, he did not
know
Much of the warfare mat mad men
make;
But he learned of his country's need
and so
Took the path that the patriots
take.
Straight to the heart of the slaughter
sent,
Knowing no guide but the word
"0bey,"
Into the battle a private went
But the soul Of a hero was born
that day!
He was only private, but as he came
Out of the carnage, the blood, the
stencil,
Somewhere faint voice called his
name
And he turned his back on the
sheltering trench;
Fastening, alone, through the raging
hell,
Sought mid the dying his wounded
friend,
Brought him in!-but a bursting shell
Laid him low at the journeys end.
He was only a private, but where
they pen
Deathless records of heroes deeds
There on the roster of noblemen
The humble name of a private
leads!
In soldiers grave, with the simple
cross,
Given "For Valor" pinned on his
breast.
Great men mourned for the nations
loss
When "Only private" was laid to
rest.

may be that they have purchased bonds to their limit

the campaign for the Third Liberty Loan. But meas

only half great and the rate of progress is only half
as fast. The amount of the Third Loan was fixed at
SO 100000 1t is that basis that the country to-
day is subscribing 1t does not yet have fully
grasped what is now demanded of it,
The Fourth Liberty Loan calls for $6OOO,O0O,000
twice much the preceding one. That must be
raised by October 49, The size of the loan is twice
great and the period of time allowed shorter than in the
previous campaign BY that understanding subscribers
must be guided. On that basis subscriptions must be
made.
1t will not do for the country to equal past perform

The Federal Food Administration is
having lot to say about using wood
for fuel in order to save the coal for
export to our allies and on the ships
of the United States. In certain sec
tons this may be good advice, but it
is not applicable to this section. We
have great deal more coal than
wood, it is more economical to use, and
there is no railroad to the coal to
transport it anyhow. Under these
conditions the advice of the Food Adj
ministration will, as it should do, fall
on deaf ears.

The Yankees know naught of fright fear, and
will gladly give their lives for their country and the

with open and glad hand when they come back
from Europe to their home and native land.
Yes, we are in this war to win, though at times
things look dark and grim We fight in the trenches
in mud and water, but the line will never break
totter And when come back from there,
German militarism will be under the ground and not

For the past several weeks the large
bridge across the creek north Of the
city has been torn up, while the struc-
ture is being raised, enlarged and the
approaches graded up, TO permit the
water in times Of flood to pass beneath
unobstructed. It has frequently hap
pened in recent years that the water
has had to find a course around the
ends Of the bridge on account of the
channel beneath being too small to
accommodate the flood waters.
