Washington, May 24.-With an ever
increasing flood of men returning
home from the war to take up anew
the tasks of civil life, many of them
with greatly changed ideas of life and
ambitions in a quandary as to just
what to do, are appealing to the De-
partment of the Interior for informa-
ton as to the intentions of the Gov
eminent in its proposed plan OF pro-
viding farms for soldiers.
Such deluge of requests has been
received from the men who wore the
uniform as to emphatic the lesson Of
all other wars that the srvice men, be-
cause of army life, with its openness
and activity, largely seek out-ofdoors
vacations.
The Interior Department has al
ready explained to more than 10000
men that the development Of its plans
rests solely with Congress. 1t is ex-
pected that early in the extra session
which convenes to-day, there will be
introduced bills covering the farms
forsoldiers plan.
Briefly the Department is saying that
If such legislation is passed, work will
begin at once in the development OF
cooperative farm settlements for
soldiers and sailors in nearly all of
the States In practically every State
in the Union there are large areas
| of land suitable for this purpose.
There is dry land in the West that
needs water, which can be provided
by building dams and canals. In the
East are large areas Of cut-over or
logged-off timber lands from which II
will be necessary to blew the stumps
and Gear off the underbrush. In the
South is a large amount of cut-over
land and swamp land which must be
drained.
Many Of the soldiers have asked II
1t will be possible for them to obtain
job near their homes by draining
clearing, irrigating and improving
these lands. That again depends up
ION che action OF Congress in providing
the money for construction. The
plans propose that these settlements
be scattered0ail over the. country, SC
that 1t would be possible for every
honorably discharged soldier or, sail
or or marine to work near his old
home. There, would, he work of al
kinds III connection with these set
Elements. from the highest technica
and cleeirfifal positions TO that OF lab

i0The plan involves the new idea
in that there will be built what ar,
known as community settlements
each containing a number OF farm
homes, so that the men will have neal
neighbors, good roads over which Il
bring thairiproduce to town, and /
market fer the sale of the produc,
within a short distance of the farm

IMPORTANT INfORMA.
ton REGARDING REG.
ISTRATIoN OF BONDS

Important information concerning
the registration of Liberty Loan bonds,
as given out by the bond department
Of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chi.
cago contains the following quotation
from letter from the Treasury de.
partment:
with reference to accepting sub.
scriptions for bonds to be registered
in the names of persons giving only
initials rather than the full name,
have to say that 1t is the intent of the
Department, not for its own sake, but
for the sake of holders of registered
bonds, to have them registered in such
manner as to enable the said holders,
or their legal representatives, to dis.
pose of them in the simplest and
readiest manner. Bonds issued to
women under their initials, or under
the initials of their husbands, are not
readily transferable in case Of the
death Of the holder.
Though letters Of administration
would be issued in the legal name of
the deceased, and the bonds would be
inscribed in her name, under her in.
itials, or those Of her husband, as the
case might be. The letters of admin.
istration and the bonds would not
agree as to the name, and therefore
the administrator Of Mrs. Sarah A.
Smith, say, would have to prove that
she and Mrs. Thomas w. Smith (or
Mrs. s. Smith) we're one and the same
person. It is to avoid troubles of this
character that the Department has in.
sisted on receiving the legal name of
persons subscribing for registered
bonds.
"Of course, the Department cannot
refuse to issue bonds under initials IL
the parties interested insist upon It,
but It is requested that you, in all
cases where It is possible, insist on
receiving the full names Of persons
subscribing for registered bonds"
Charles KrutckcT always made a
good public record.

YOU ARE JUST AS o.
Old As YOUR SPINE

Even back as far as Caesars time
this saying was used. In later years,
men substituted for TIA mans Just
as old as he feels. Taking the two,
and combining the meaning, we have
the true expression and Chiropractic
interpretation--"A mans just as old
as his Spine allows him to feel.'
The spinal column Is the main con-
duit through which the nerve cables
pass from the brain, and from which
the tiny feeders are distributed to
every portion of the body. II through
abnormal curvature, the bones of the
spinal column obstruct the free flow
of the health.giving currents from the
brain to the bodily organs. disease re.
suits In the organs so affected. The
Chiropractor adjusts the cause of the
trouble, removes the pressure on the
nerves without the use OF Drugs or
Knife. This allows Nature to build
up the diseased organs or tissues. II
there is any abnormal condition pres.
ent In your body which is causing you
suffering, let Chiropractic bring back
normal conditions so you may again
enjoy good health. +. II. Seubold,
