APPEAL MADE TO PREVENT
KILLING OF LIVE STOCK
People Asked to Keep Animals
Off Railroad Right of Way.

Nashville. Sept. 2S.-(Special)- "A
campaign looking to the conservation
of food through the curtailment Of the
number of animals killed along the
rights of way of the railroads in The
state has been inaugurated by the
state Council of National Defense. The
campaign is based purely and simply
in a patriotic appeal to the owners of
live stock to keep their cattle off the
railroads as duty they owe the gov
ernment.
1t isn't question Of dollars and
cents any longer, but question OF
food conservation; and IL a citizen can
conserve food by keeping his COW or
hog or sheep off the right of way of
railroad. 1t is his patriotic duty to
do 80. The loss of food In the south
by reason of the carelessness of the
owners of live stock the past year
amounted to $2.500.0o0. In three of
the southern states sufficient food was
destroyed by the railroads in five years
to feed 100000 soldiers one month.
And animals struck by trains are alb
solutely useless for food. Every COW
means 400 pounds of meat and forty
pounds of leather destroyed. Every
pig means from $15 to $25 worth of
food off the market-and the govern
mcnt pays for it.

German forts which they have been
building for three years, Ave miles
from the starting point OF the French

gonne forest.
French troops have advanced with
remarkable alignment In the face of
the most desperate resistance and
against the choicest German troops,
who are defending positions that COM
pare favOrably in strength with the
Hindenburg line.
The highly important east and west
German railway line of communication
has been cut by the French at st. Ma
rie-A-Py. The poilus carried the first
line with hand grenades and then
marched onward, keeping perfect time
with the lifting barrage, capturing tun-
nels. blockhouses and armored shelters.
Paris this morning is expecting all
most anything from Champagne in the
way of news. Military critics say that
the battlefield is most suitable for ma
neuvers on the grandest scale. All re-
ports agree that the French are ready
to take advantage of their successes.

New York, Sept. 2S.-Hundreds of
congratulatory messages were received
here today by President Wilson con-
cerning his peace based on equal
justice for all peoples" speech last
night.
The president was up early today
and was highly pleased with the man
ner in which his utterances were re-
ceived In this country. He appeared
anxious to get the state department
advices regarding the manner In which
the speech was received abroad, and
for that reason he left for Washing
ton this morning. A few of the con-
gratulat0ry messages from Europe
were forwarded to him here and he
read them with pleasure before his
departure for the capital.
In addition to concrete expression
of the purposes and will of the Amer
ican people, the presidents address
was considered as the most forcible ap-
peal that could have been made to
quicken the patriotic impulses OF the
nation in the drive for the fourth lib
erty loan.

AMERICAS BIG TASK
Nation Starts Out to Raise Loan I
$6,00o,000,O00 in Three Weeks.

Washington, Sept. 2S.--America to-
day set itself to the task Of raising a
loan of $4,000, 100000 in three weeks.
Although this was twice the minimum
of any previous liberty loan and by far
the greatest war credit ever under
taken by any nation, treasury depart
ment officials were certain that the
sum would be oversubscribed.
officials felt that it was favorable
augury for the fourth liberty loan that
the campaign got under way when the
American army was pressing forward
in a great offensive in France.
Subscriptions began pouring in today
at all federal reserve banks. Many
communities had oversubscribed their
quotas before the campaign officially
began, Thousands of workers were
out early and in practically every city,
town and hamlet special ceremonies
ushered in the drive. In Washington
the campaign began with exercises on
the steps of the treasury building.
