Europe Likes American Milk

European people have learned to
like American dairy products. Ex-
ports of condensed milk to Europe
rose from16, 100000 pounds in 1914
to 530,000,000 pounds in 1918, and
there were notable increases in ex-
ports of other dairy products Much
of this may be due to abnormal war
demands, but the United States De-
partment of Agriculture believes that
there is both an opportunity and a
tendency to expand in this direction
over prewar requirments. A nor
NAL increase in dairying in this coun-
try, the departments thinks, is fully
justified, provided there is the nee
essary increase in feed crops.

The time is near at hand that the
citizens ever expect to make a city

few more buildings put in on the va
cant spaces and lots instead of spread
ing the houses out over farms and
other valuable land within the in
closure of the corporate limits.
Owners of the vacant lots must be
willing to sell them at reasonable
prices to make start, then the city
officials should encourage prospective
builders to locate nearer the center
Of the town, by giving the best of
service to the present established
highways and streets.
The idea of stretching electric
wires, building streets to every nook
and corner of the city is expensive
and out-of-place. The taxpayers of
the city are now grooming under the
burden of high taxes and little. re-
turns. ~
Under the present cost of main
tenance the city of Belington could
easily house 5000 or 10000 people
whereas we now house something
over 2000 Strangers coming here
on the night train and see the cleo
trio lights from the valleys to the
hill-tops two miles below town think
they are approaching metropolis,
indeed they are, but only in spirit.
A good way to start the sale of
these vacant lots is to raise the val
uation on the next assessments. The
town has a fight to do this if they
are asked to light them and other
wise protect them.
The owners of these vacant lots
3 should let it be known that the lots
are for sale and at low prices. The
building period is just ahead Of US

tralize Belington is now. Advertise
your lots. Tell the real estate deal

are doomed. But we shall not fail.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN
Z. d. Koontz.

=. ID. KoOntz.
When the monster of grim Revolu-
ton
Was stalking abroad in the land,
When our great Ship of State had
most foundered,
Mid the bars of treacherous sand,
Who stood unafraid at the tiller
With steady and magical hand?
Abraham Lincoln
When the North and the South fell
divided
A great nation severed in twain;
When the battle smoke hung like a
mantle
From coast line to western plain,
Whose heart stood firm in its pur-
pose,
And never was heard to complain?
Abraham Lincoln.
When victory perched on the banners
Of the foe sweeping up from the
South,
When the gates of the capitol trem-
bled,
At each flash from the grim lannon's
mouth,
Who stood like the oak of the forest,
Fearing not the fires of the drouth
Abraham Lincoln
When the traitorous. voice of the
critics
Sought the flag, to mar and to stain,
When they pointed and scorned in
derision
Toward Dixie, where thousands were
slain,
Whose voice spoke out from the
darkness
TO calm, defend and maintain?
Abraham Lincoln.
When wars grim battles were ended,
Forgotten the Gray and the Blue,
With armies triumphantly marching
To join in the final review,
Whose heart reached out for the
vanquished
With a sentiment noble and true?
Abraham Lincoln.
When the country awoke from its
nightmare
70 behold the Branch and the Dove,
When many hearts ranked with hat
And lew had faith from above,
Who said, forget and forgive them,
With true nlagnanimQus love
Abraham Lincoln
When death claimed our statesman
and hero,
And shrouded in death was his fame,
When the nation bowed down with
the mourners
Revaring and blessing his name
North, South, East and West were
his mourners
For all had loved him the same

THE NEW LEAVEN

The demobiiization of something
like two million men is bound to have
far-reaching results throughout the
United States. Every city, every
hamlet, each community, is bound to
be more or less affected by the return
to civil life and civil duties Of these
men who, for a space Of time, have
known the value of military discip-
line and military education.
In no one Mining win this new
leaven be felt more strongly than as
an aid to the =. S, Public Health
Services campaign for the suppress
sion Of prostitution and the eradica-
ton Of venerel diseases. AS soon as
these men donned the uniform Of the
United States they began to receive
an education in matters Of social by
giene. They were taught the mex
orable law that an unclean man, I'M
clean physically or morally-cannot
be fit nor an efficient man The
facts as to right thinking, right liv-
ing, the almost unbelievable prevail
ence of disease infection among i'm
moral women, the value of contin-
ence, the baleful effect, even upon
children yet unborn, of the venerel
diseases-all these faults have been
made known to every man who is
soon to return to his home
In one sense each of these return
ing soldiers will be a missionary to
his home community. By his ex-
ample no less than by his precept
he will aid the entire country in
understanding the work that is being
done by the State Boards of Health,
backed up by the U. S. Public Health
Service, to free the country from
the curse of venerel diseases.
Each community has the right to
be proud of the fine achievements of
itS soldiers, and the influence they
will exert, perhaps unconsciously,
when they come home, is certain to
be reckoned with, and so far as the
returning soldiers pass on the les
sons in social hygiene which they
themselves have learned, that even
must be wholly good.
1t behooves every citizen to stand
shoulder to shoulder with the return
ed soldiers in the fight for clean
nation being made by the Govern
ment through the Bureau of Venerel
Diseases of the State Departures of
Health in Charleston.

COOP ROADS NOW A NECESSITY

he good roads movement received
SO m Ich impetus from the exacting
co Ii ions OF war that we may con
fdently hope that the movement
will grow stronger as the years go
by. Sigrs are not wanting that all
the stats are awakening to the inn
portance of road building on a
larger scale than that heretofore
planned, and nearly every day we
read Of some new state appropriating
a million or more for the building
or maintenance of new roadways.
There is no man nowadays, no mat
ter what his calling in life may be,
who is not directly or indirectly af-
fected by this movement and every
community in the hereafter will be
judged by the number and condition
of the highways that radiate from
it rather than from its railway ia
cilities.
In taking up the great task of
building the roadways of the coun-
try first consideration should be
given to the main arterial roads.
In the past the several county boards
made appropriations for little
stretches of roadway here and there
throughout the country and while
not actually neglecting the main
thoroughfares too little attention
was paid to them to make them as
stable and permanent as might have
been done had not the pressure from
other points diverted a great deal of
the road appropriation. The. advent
of the automobile and its entrance in
to the general scheme of the trans
portation business makes it imper-
alive that the main highways be
given the first consideration in the
new era of road building that is just
beginning to gain Roadway through
cut the country. With permanent
roads built along the main arteries
of communication it will be but the
matter Of a short time thereafter I'M
til the smaller roads converting to-
ward these main highways can re-
ceive the necessary attention they
demand. The age of tinkering with
the roads of America has passed and
gone. We must conceive some broad
general system thereby permanent
and assured progress can be made
and some benefit derived from the
vast sums of money that will be e1.
pended in this great movement.

No matter what remedy you use,
however care must be taken not to

have recovered from the first one,

SPEND LARGE SUMS ON ROADS

SPEND LARGE SUMS On ROADS
About $500, 100000 viii be put in
to road building this year, according
to estimates by experts of the De-
partment of Agriculture, submitted
to the Division Of Public Works and
Construction Development of the De-
partment Of Labor 1t is estimated
that about half this amount will go
to labor.
The 3O0,000,00O of construction
estimated viii not be sufficient to
make up deferred war construction,
it is believed, for normally the a.
mount spent on roads in the United
States is not far below 100000, 900,
and during war times road building
came almost to stop in many local
tiles.
