Nebraska Establishes
Price Of Seed Corn

The same seed corn shortage
existing in South Dakota is found
down in our nei9hborln9 state of
Nebraska and to help the farm
erS of their state out of the Situa.
ton, the State Council of De
fenSe of that state, has eStab-
lished a price of $500 per bushel
for seed corn that shall be of pure
strain, graded, guaranteed that 90
per cent will Qermanate. Mixed
corn or corn of inferior quality
shall be correspondin9ly lower.
and all seed taken at random
from a crib shall sell at a price
not to exceed $500 per bushel.
This is a good move and one
that South Dakota could do well
to follow. There is enough seed
corn IN our state 10 give US the
supply needed and it is absolute
ly wrong that the SDeCulatOr reap
harvest off of the citizen at a
time such as we are now going
through. The local Council of
Defense should lose no time in
taking action on this matter and
establishing price. They have
all necessary power to stop the
shipping out of any seed that will
be needed in the county.

Soldier And
Sailor Insurance


There are over 100000 men
in the Army and Navy of United
States who must decide before
February II whether they want
the protection of a $4,000 insur.
anCe policy in the strongest and
largest insurance company in the
world, the United States Govern
ment, This offer is made by the
Government IN addition to provi-
sion for better pay for soldiers
and sailors than any other Gov
ernment is able TO make, and i'm
addition to provision for allot
mentS and allowances to enable
men to take care of their families
and dependents. 1t is voluntary,
however, and no man needs To
take it who does not want it Ii
would seem to an ordinary busi,
ness man, however, that anyone
engaged in the extra hazardous
undertaking of war was a fool
not to take ali the insurance he
could afford to buy.
The Government offers this in
SuranCe at such low rates that
even the private who gets $50 d
month can afford to take the
maximum policy of $4,000 al
lowed. 1t will cost man under
80 years of age not over $3.50 A
month, which can be deducted
from his pay If he so directs.
The families and dependents of
every man in the Army and Navy
also are interested in this inSur
anCe and should see that they
have its protection as his beneh
Charles in case OF his death. Rel
ativeS may wisely offer to help
pay the premiums and urge their
fathers, sons, or brothers in the
Army and Navy 10 take the in
Surance with their help if that is
necessary
The strongest reason, however,
for every man taking this insur-
anCe who can get it is that in ad
dltiOn to the benefit it cOnters
uDOn his beneficiary in the event
OF his death. II protects him IN
case OF his permanent and total
disability, and whether injured or
not he may become uninsurable
by reason OF his military service
and not be able to get insurance
later when he marrles or has de
pendentS for whom he wants TO
provide.
A $4,000 policy means $3.50
per month for life paid to any
holder who is permanently and
totally disabled. No such liberal
offer has ever been made by any
government, but the offer expires
on February q, for men who
were in the service on October
18th, 1917 Action should b.
prompt on the part of the soldiers
and sailors in taking out insur-
anCe, and of their relatives in
urging them to do so.

strength, for America needs the
full productive power of its peo.
pie. Much of the needed saving
can be effected by substituting
one kind of food for another. But
the time has come to put aside all
SelfShneSS and diSloyalty. The
time has come for sacrifice.
The allies ask us to meet only
their absolutely imperative needs
They are restricting the conSump-
ton of their own people to the
minimum necessary for health
and strength. They are Controll-
ing their food by drastic govern
ment regulations. There is even
privation among women and
children; there is starvation in
Belgium.
The allies need wheat and meat
and fats and sugar. They must
have more of these than we have
been sending, more than we shall
be able to send unless we restrict
our own consumption. We can
do it without harm, for as a ma
ton we are today eating and
wasting much more food than we
need.
The whole great problem of
winning the war rests primarily
on one thing; the loyalty and sac
rifice of the American people in
the matter of food. 1t is not a
government responsibility. 1t is
the responsibility of each indivi-
dual. Each pound of food saved
by each American citizen is a
pound given to the support of our
army, the Allies and friendly neu-
trails. Each pound wasted or
eaten unnecessarily is a pound
withheld from them. 1t is a dir
eCt personal obligation on the
part of each of us to some one in
Europe whom we are bound to
help.
If we are selfish or even care
less we are disloyal, we are the
enemy at home. Now is the hour
of our testing. Let US make it
the hour of our victory; victory
over ourselves; victory over the
enemy of freedom.

United States Food Administrator

Why It Is Necessary

The above program is put into
immediate effect by virtue of a
proclamation issued bv President
Wilson. 81 am confident" says
the president, that the great
body of our women who have
labored so Loyalty in cooperation
with the food administration for
the success of food conservation
will strengthen their efforts and
will take it as part of their bur-
den in this period of national SER
vice to see that the above sue-
gestions are observed throughout
the land"
The following reasons for put
ting the new program into effect
are given by Herbert G. Hoover
on the new home card which is
to be distributed soon to all of
the millions of members of the
food administration.
To the Members of the United
States Food Administration
The men of the allied nations
are fighting; they are not on the
farms. Even the men of the
European neutral countries are
under arms. The fields of both
Allies and neutrals lack man
power, fertilizer and machinery.
Hence, the production of food by
these countries has steadily les
sened ever since the beginning of
the war, while, at the same time.
the shortage of shipping has
grown more and more serious.
with the consequent steady in
crease of difficulties in bringing
food from the far away markets
of India, Australia and the Ar
gentine.
The situation has become criti-
cal. There is simply not enough
food in Europe, yet the soldiers
of the allies must be maintained
in full strength. Their wives and
children at home must not face
famine; the friendly neutrals must
not be starved; and finally our
own army in France must never
lack needed ounce of food.
There is just one way IN which
all OF these requirements can be
met. North America must furnish
the food. And we must furnish
it from our savings because we
have already sent our normal sur
plus.
We do not need to Starve our
own people. We have plenty for
ourselves and it is the firm policy
of the food administration to re-
tain for our people a sufficient
supply Of every essential food
stuff. We want nobody in our
country to eat less than is essen.

FACE the FACTS

T EFT face the facts. The situation is critical.
- Unless the Allies fight they yet have
fought defeat threatens Hungry cannot fight
at their best; nor hungry nations. France, England
and Italy are going hungry unless we feed them.
Wheat sayins.-They must have wheat It is the
best food to fight 1t ia the easiest to ship. We
alone can spare it to them BY saving just a little
less than quarter of what we ate last year-we
can do it without snting ourselves We have only
to Substitute another food just as good.
The Corn of Plenty-Corn is that food There's
surplus of it. Providence has been generous in the
hour of our need 1t has given in such bounty
known before. Tons Of corn. Train
loads of corn. Five hundred million bushels and
above our regular needs All we have to do is TO
learn to appreciate it. Was ever patriotic duty made
easy? And so clear?
Americas Own Food--Corn 1t is the true American
food The Indians, hardest of races, lived on it.
Our forefathers adopted the diet and conquered
continent. For great section of our country it
has bong cen the staff Of life How we'll the South
fought on it, history tells Now it help America
win world war
Learn Somethng-Corn! 1t isn't food. It's

It's dessert It's nutritious food value in 1t,
dollar for dollar, than meat eggs most other
vegetables; It's good to eat; the how good you don't
Best of all, it's plentiful and it's patriotic.

WHISKEY STILLS
THRIVE IN SOUTH
ILLICIT "MOONSHINE" MAKERS
DOING BIG BUSINESS WITH
TROOPS. TO BE STOPPED.

An appeal to governors and mem
bers of congress to support a nation
wide campaign against illicit liquor
distillers has been made by Internal
Revenue Commissioner Roper, whose
reports show lincolnshire" traffic in
creasing rapidly. The campaign will
be directed mainly against southern
dry states, where the location Of
most of the military camps has added
special reason for the cleanup
movement.
Commissioner Roper will ask gov
errors to furnish state agents to CO.
operate with government inspectors
in putting illegal stills out of bust
ness and to prosecute the campaign
actively during the next two months,
ordinarily the busiest period of the
year for moonshiners.
The campaign already has resulted
in arrests of hundreds of moonshin-
ers in southern dry states. State laws
fOrbidding importation and the fed
eral tax of $500 a gallon have driv-
en- the price of crude corn liquor
about many camps to SO and $12 a
quart.
Illegal Traffic Is Widespread.
Illegal manufacture of whisky is
reported in Virginia, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee
and Arkansas. Officials point out that
"moonstiners" are breaking not only
federal revenue and state prohibi-
ticn laws, but also the food act for
bidding the use of grain and fruits
in the manufacture Of liquor.
The open refusal or ill-concealed
reluctance or many county sheriffs
and other local officials to assist gov
eminent agents in running down
"moonshiners" was a factor in caus-
ing Commissioner Roper to announce
the campaign.
In North Carolina 81 of the 100
counties are known as good moon
shine territory" and nearly 700 stills
have been seized and destroyed in a
year Conditions are bad in Hen
derson, Polk, Wilkes, Orange, John
ston, Pennsylvania, Alexander, Yad-
kin, Mcdowell, Burke and Wake
counties.
Pickens and Horny counties, in
South Carolina, are reported local.
ties where illicit distilling has -four
ished. In most northwestern coun-
ties of the state stills are also said
to be operated on rather large
scales, and the "moonshiners' take
their product to the camps in that
state.
Almost 600 stills. have been dis
covered in Georgia within the last
year, mainly in the northern sec
ton. Considerable improvement re-
Gently in Florida is indicated.
