LOUISIANA LAMBS ARE

In all the sheep-raising parishes in
Louisiana, fall lambs are already to
be found, according to'a report made
by G. P. Williams, extension sheep
specialist, at the Louisiana State Uni

mentary feed these will be in prime
condition for the block in ninety days,
which means homegrown lamb avail

Mr.. Williams. Lamb is most desira-

THE FIRST THOUSAND

When a man gets thousand dol
lars saved up there are always oppor-
tunities for a good investment. 1t is
hard to place much less than that.
That is why wealthy men who are self
made advise young men to begin
early and save the first thousand.
Until we went to war, in order to
get thousand dollars together one
had to go to the bank and put little
away each month or each week or
tuck part of his salary away in an
old sock. 1t was troublesome to go
to the bank and the sock was too
handy.
Now, however, there is an easy way
to get that first thousand. The an
swer is War Savings Stamps In them
the government of the United States,
backing those stamps with a guaran-
tee of four per cent interest COM
pounded quarterly, opens the way.
One can begin with two bits"

Vests Crippled Heroes Being

Reconstruction-no, that's too pro-
sale. Regeneration is the only word
| that can describe the remarkable work
of rebuilding the wounded in the mill
tary hospitals. One feels, after tour
of one of these hospitals, that he has
been permitted visit to a divine
workshop where men are fashioned in
parts, put together, and taught to func-
ton. God made Adam of dust, but

Of the mental and spiritual-that
which is intangible-well, only this:
these surgeons blow into their men of

into their product this spirit, they feed
the spirit. Then months later from
this hospital walks man who was a
machinist before his legs were blown
of at Chateau Thierry. Now he is

his spirit or his ability as draughts-
man. Nor is his spirit or ability less
firm than those new legs of wood and
iron.
The Cost.
There are 1900 war wounded and sick
in Letterman General Hospital in the
Presidio at San Francisco. Most of
these men from the Argonne, Belleau
Wood, st. Mihiel, Chateau Thierry, are
being remade bodily and spiritually.
OF the two phases of their regeneration,
the spiritual is perhaps the more diff
fcult For when a man is mangled of
his legs, or his arms, or his eyes, he is
apt to lose more than those physical as
sets. He loses his economic value and
with it his confidence and his sVf-re-
spect. For proof Of that we have the |
legless, the armless, the blind begging |
on our street corners. They have lost |
their spirit.
Of course, this divine workshop of |
the military surgeons is an expensive
regeneration. 1t takes thousands of
dollars each month to carry on the
work in Letterman Hospital alone, and
Letterman is only one of many such
hospitals, all of them run by the gov

FREE BANKS
IS WAY BACK
TO NORMAL
BY Carl PIehn, Professor of Finance,
University of California

OF course the war upset business
1t increased some lines such as wal
munitions but decreased common
everyday peace lines. The only pos
sible way back to norma, is to build
up common business.
To get back to normal means that
we have to get capital back into those
lines of business which have fallen
behind. If an individual has met a
great loss the only way he can make
himself whole again is by saving, by
strict economy. A country is only a
lot of individuals. We have, collec.
lively, to meet the cost of the war,
an economic loss, although moral
gain. We can meet 1t only by saw
ing.
The government is coming to us
next month with the Victory Liberty
Loan-the last of the Liberty Loans
There are sound financial and eco
nomic reasons why the Victory Loan
should be brought again to the peo-
pie. The government could make us
save by heavy taxes right now, but it
prefers the less harsh and wiser
course of borrowing our savings now
and taxing on the installment plan, q
little each year.
Leave Banks Free.
Now if the people take the loan,
IS they must the banks will be left
free to lend to the farmer, the manu-
facturer, the grocer, the butcher, and
the baker SO they can get busy again.
Then production and business will
grow and, by the formula, prices will
come to normal. Then we shall all
know where we are at" and get
out again.
If we leave it to the banks" they
will have mo funds" left for business,
big or little. We, ourselves, will not
be saving and the day of our redemp-
ton will only be postponed. There
will result inevitable imitation and the
continuance of high and abnormally
prices.
The Victory Loan is part of the war
job just as much as any other Lib
erty Loan. We can not afford to "let |
George do it" because if we do we
shall be turning our hands from the
Dlow before the end of the furrow is |
reached, and leaving big crop of
weeds to spring up.

Rumor has been current for some
little time that A. A. Mcdonald, man
ager for the Potlatch Mercantile com
pany at Potlatch, had resigned his
position and would leave the lumber
town. This is absolutely denied by
A. w. Laird, general manager of the

Mr.. Mcdonald had not resigned and

LOAN QUOTA NOT

BY STAMP SALES
Director of War Savings Alters
Original Plan of Hing
ing Two Securities

Victory Liberty Loan quotas will not
be affected by Thrift Stamp sales as
planned by the Treasury Department
the first of the year. 1t was announced
last January by Lewis B. Franklin,
director of war savings, that wherever
Thrift Stamp quotas were exceeded
the amount of oversubscription would
be taken from the coming loan quota
and that if the Thrift Stamp quotas
were not reached the deficiency would
be added to the loan quota.
Governor James K Lynch of the
Federal Reserve Bank has just
received a telegram from Washington
advising that the plan to adjust Vic
tory Loan quotas in accordance with
the sale of War Savings Stamps has
been abandoned The reason given
was that some of the Federal Reserve
Districts were not reapportioning
Thrift Stamp quotas.
