Wheat, il seems has the Govern
ment cornered. The farmer is about
to have his day, and the Food Admin
istration, which all through the waf
months has pleaded "Save Wheat" 10
likely soon to shout from the house.
tops and from the billboards through
out the land, "Eat Wheat! Eat II in ev-
ery possible way" says q grain opera
tor in the New York Independent.
Wheat, in word, is now the most
plentiful food in the world. Argentina
has a supply that has been accumulat'
ed through more than three years. Aus
tralia, likewise India has its hoard ac-
cumulated for want Of ships to re-
move II. And now the United States
promises tremendous crop.
In the United States we had crop
last year of about ei5.o0o.0o0 BUSH
els. The need for seed, which in
general way amounts to about 10 per
cent, is 100000 bushels. At the
rate We have been consuming ours
a rate very much below the pre-war
normal consumption, We shall likely
use about 45O,OOo,000 bushels in this
country. We were down to basis OF
400,000,000 bushels In November, and
il is to be doubted II We shall increase
our annual consumption much more
ylan 450,0O0,000 bushels. That leaves
100000 bushels for export.
Up to the end Of November We had
exported approximately 100000
bushels OF wheat and flour. The Gov
ernment has now bought for export
65,000,000 bushels. That leaves about
200,000,000 more for export. And the
years have gone when the United
States has the only world supply. II has
not been possible TO get wheat TO Eu-
rope except from America. The re.
suit is that the Australian and Argen-
tine and other lesser crops accumulat.
ed, and now Europe, and even the Uni
ted States, is beginning to draw on
those accumulated crops. The with.
drawals are not large as yet, because
the world supply Of ships Is only now
going through the process OF realloca-
ton that has come with peace.
So II looks as II this year America
will have a surplus without takinI a.
TO consideration at all the coming
crop. That is why il seems likely that
before long, instead Of urging people
to conserve wheat, the Government
will have to beg people to eat wheat

Afraid To Come Out.

An interesting group of business men
were standing at busy corner the
other day waiting for car. One Of
them was heard TO say:
Fellows, what do you consider the
most remarkable accomplishment of
the war?
The face of the men portrayed in
tense interest and quick as fash, a
gentleman of ample proportions shot
back "Why, the slash at Verdun will
60 down in history as one of the most
brilliant accomplishments Of the war;"
Number two snapped his fingers,
what about the battle of the Marne?
All, fellows, you can't beat that"
"Have it your way" said the man
with the sandy hair, "but | think the
clever work and intense fighting at
Chateau -Thierry will always be claim
ed by Americans as the greatest yet"
The fight at Belleau Wood, the ST.
Mihiel salient, the fight in the Argonne
Forest, when Major Whittlesey told
the Fritzies to "Go to HELL" all came
in for their share of the big things ac'
complished.
swell, Jack, what do you say?" said
the first speaker turning TO tall, dark
quiet man standing with arms folded.
Speaking thoughtfully, he srawled, 81
think the most glorious accomplishment
of the war is contained in these few
words The German Fleet was afraid TO
come out and hght.'"
Honestly, if German bomb had been
dropped into their midst, those men
would not have been more "set back"
They looked at each other and then at
the speaker.
"Sure, you never thought of that"
That's the way with us. Most of us
never thought of it. Most of US do not
think enough of that. The fact re-
mains that the American Navy "shooed"
the subs right away from Newport and
Boston. Didn't think Of that either,
did you? They conveyed over two mil
lion soldiers safely across. They are
bringing back your wounded sons,
nephews and friends, treating them as
tenderly as babies. My son came over
on the Mongolia and just as soon as he
is rested he is going into the Navy, so
he says. He had chance to know the
real inside life while on the trips across
and says it appeals to him.
And the men scrambled for a car
with this thought ringing in their ears
"The German Fleet was afraid to come
out"

Question Hour In The House.

A member of Congress was amoi'
tious to distinguish himself by his
oratory, and watched for a Favorable
opportunity. A motion was made IN
the House for enforcing the execu-
ton of some statute, says the Argo-
naut, whereupon the would-be orator
rose and, after solemnly gazing upon
the House in silence for moment or
so, addressed it as follows:
"Mr. Speaker: Have We laws, OF
have we not laws? II we have not
laws, and they are not observed, to
what end are those laws made"
So saying, he sat down, his chest i'l'
hated with conscious consequences
Instantly Mr.. Mann Of Illinois rose
and delivered this thought in these
words:
"Mr. Speaker: Did the honorable
gentleman who last spoke speak to the
purpose, or did he not speak 10 the
purpose? If he did not speak to the
purpose, to what purpose did ne
speak ?"

Picture Found on Battlefield.

Finding a good lookink young ladys
picture on a battlefield in Europe, con-
tanning the information that she was
an American was the novel experience
OF Sergeant Carlyle R. carp, OF the
Headquarters Company, Q. M. C.,
10Th Division, A. E. F., while going
over the battlefield near Hill 37S.
The picture was really found By a
machine gunner on this hill and given
to the Sergeant, who looked the pic
ture over and saw the stamp OF HE'D
wohrs Studio, Hagerstown, Md. He
Immediately wrote TO Mr.. Hiedwohl,
proprietor Of the studio, enclosing the
picture, adding in the letter that the
lady whose likeness was found on the
picture might be located, and tha! per
haps she would like to have the pic
ture on account OF its Sentimental val
ue."
The lady has been located, and was
found to be Miss Rhenanna Hawbak-
er, Of Mercersburg, Pa. She has been
communicated with concerning the dis
position Of the picture.
The letter from overseas contain
ing the picture was dated yerdun
December "a, 1918, and perhaps the
Hill 37S is in that locality, and Is the
same ground over which the 3l3th In
fanfry, made up exclusively OF Mary
land troops charged in one Of the biz
drives before the signing OF the ar
mistice. II is believed that the pic
ture, belonged to one Of the infantry
men Of this regiment.

After the Fire.

When your neighbor yells hre In
the middle OF the night and you see q
lurid glare reflected against your win
dows you dash out OF bed and work
without regard to your powers OF en-
durance TO help quench the flames. You
will fight, yes, and perhaps risk your
life in an effort to signalize your will
lngness to help. There 10 no sug.
gestion OF hesitancy about your de-
termination to offer everything you
have in the way OF assistance whilo
the flames are eating their way
through your neighbor's property. You
act on a natural impulse TO render all
that is in you while the excitement
is at its height.
But when the fire is out and there
remain only smoking embcrs; when
the crowd has dispersed and the fer
vor of emotion has passed, leaving
the dispossessed family viewing the
ruins OF the home. how many Of those
same helpful neighbors are there who
will offer shelter, protection and the
opportunity to get another home to
the unfortunate family. .
II doesn't take much OF patriot TO
offer help when the FIRE Is raging but
when the embers cool and the incident
seems closed II takes pretty good
kind OF sport to stand by and "flnsh
the job" when the excitement is all
over.
There will be a little background

BEGAN LIFE AS ERRAND
BOY IN PHILADELPHIA

WILMINGTON, Del, Aug. 81. Ed
ward O1as) Addicks started life as an
errand boy in n Philadelphia store, made
millions through deaIs In various gas
companies, most famous of which was
the Bay state Gas company. n later
became known throughout the country
as the man who bought a state" in hi
efforts to win a seat in the United
States senate,
He wac born in Philadelphia In No
vember, l84l. He first became known
when he introduced the spring wheat
flour from the Minnesota district to the
Eastern farmers. Later he turned his
attention to the then infant industry
OF producing water gas for Illuminating
purposes, He successfully established
plants In Boston and Brooklyn and was
the prime move in what was known
as the Chicago gas trust in 1889. In
1884 he organized the Bay State Gas
company and in one operation made a
fortune.
Desire to have a seat in the United
States senate became almost an obses-
sion with Addicks. He Is credited with
having spent a large fortune In his ef-
forts to be elected from Delaware.
He was defeated for he first time in
1889. Owing to the fact that no one
in the state was permitted to vote
at that time without exhibiting a paid
tax receipt, Addicks was able to gain
control of n large number OF voters by
going through the lower sections Of the
state paying the taxes for those per
sons who promised to vote for him.
Addicks carried his fight throughout
the state for eight years, He Is cred
tied with having spent upward Of 500, e
900 in the campaign Of 1892, Following
a crushing defeat in 1907 he left Della
ware and vent to New York.
