DON'T BLAME THE BOYS.

Experienced, hard-headed business
men pay life insurance agents hand
some commissions to sell them life
insurance. Not one man in thou
sand makes up his mind that he wants
a policy and goes to the life insur-
Rnce company and buys it. Were it
not for the life insurance agents, there
would not be enough life insurance
sold in this country to talk about.
Why wouldn't they buy it? | don.
know, but they don't. Yet all these
men believe in life insurance, and
speak with considerable pride of the
amount they are carrying and the
amount they have paid-up. The sue
eessful business man would no more
be without life insurance than he
would be without fire insurance, yet
he pays agents handsomely to sell it
20 him.
Uncle Sam is running the biggest
life insurance company in the world
and running it at cost for the benefit
of the boys who have been in his serv-
ice. He offers a most liberal policy
at from one quarter to one-third less
than it can be obtained for in private
companies. Yet they are dropping
out of Uncle Sans company by the
thousands yes, by the millions.
We would advise every young man
eligible to this insurance to stick. AS
he gets older and appreciates the
value of insurance, he will treasure
1t more and more.

DON'T BLAME THE FARMER.

In an editorial in the Pioneer Press
last Friday dealing with the high cost
of living the editor goes on to show
that the annual food bill of the nation
is now $4,000, 1000, or an increase
since the war began of fully 10 per
cent This to great extent, says the
editorial, is responsible for the high
price level If it is the high price of
the food products that we consume
that make directly for the high cost
of living, we can easily analyze the
proposition little more and find
that the necessity for these high
prices is the fact that the producer
Of them must pay high wages for his
labor, double prices for his machin-
cry, high prices for his clothes, and
SO down the line, high prices for ev-.
erything. The miner, the factory
worker, the railroad men all want
high wages to meet the high cost of
living, and when they have that then
the farmer and everyone else must
pay higher prices for those products
which they produce or transport. Let's
not shoulder the high cost of living
on the farmer. When it comes to re-
ducing the high cost of living it will
be up to every product to stand its

PLACE ORDERS FOR X
FOODSTUFFS NOW
Postoffice Turned Into Mail Order
Grocery Concern.

By a resolution recently passed by
the congress, the distribution of GER
tain foodstuff left over from the ar
my was authorized. Several supply
Offices have been established through
out the country, and all postmasters
will now take orders for any of the
foodstuffs offered by the government,
which orders will be forwarded direct
ly to the supply Offices, the one for
Minnesota being located at Chicago.
By a special arrangement, only first
zone postage rates are charged on
these supplies, or about one cent on
every pound.
The foodstuffs offered by the gov
ernment are army leftovers, composed
chiefly of canned goods which every
family could use. There is only a
limited supply, every postofice hav-.
ing been allotted certain amount OF
each brand of goods, and after this.
allotment is exhausted no more or
ders will be taken. The prices are
very low and even after the postage
charges are added there will be sub
stantial saving. 1t is the plan of the
government to effect a material re-
duction in the high cost of living by
releasing this immense supply of food.

.THE TENDERFOOT."

The Tenderfoot is human story,
presented In natural manner by an
excellent cast. 1t is full of bright
dialogue, rich humor and is one OF
the best comedy dramas ever written.
Ben Warner, the ranch foreman, is
an excellent type of westerner; true,
faithful, and always a man of prln-
ciple. Alice Clemens, is lovable
western girl, whose loyalty and charm
win approval from the start. Joe Clem-
ems, the father, is a rugged, honest
man of the west, and believes all men
honest until he finds them otherwise.
Bud Bowers, laugh provoking cow
puncher, is kept busy making love
and thrills for Clarissa Clark, a girl
from New York, who has a vivid
imagination. Jimmy Springer, also
from the metropolis, who learned the
ways of the west from Diamond
Dicks" history of the "wild and
wooly," finds to his surprise that
there are yet many things to learn.
Robert Stanley, the mysterious Ten
derfoot,0 proves his worth in more
ways than one. Tom Barlow, man
of determination, and Philip Brad
ford. the scheming promoter, COM
pletes a cast of characters that fur
nish material for really clever
story. A strong feature of this play |
is the abundance of bristling, clean
cut and breezy comedy that elimin-
ates all possibility of there being a
dull moment. This is a brand new
play by Addison Augler, who also
wrote, 'Tn Arizona" "Where The |
Trails Meet" ETC., plays that have
met with universal approval In past
seasons. Augler Bros. Big Show, un-

DECLINES REQUEST FOR LATEST
DRAFT OF TREATIES WITH
GERMANY'S ALLIES.

Washington, Sept. 2.The request
Of the foreign relations committee for
latest drafts of the proposed treaty
with Germany's allies has been re-
fused by President Wilson on the
ground that compliance would set a
precedent encouraging senatorial en-
croachment on the presidential power
of treaty negotiation.
In an exchange of letters made pub
lie yesterday Mr.. Wilson wrote that
it was "out of the question to accede
to the committees suggestion, and
Chairman Lodge replied that although
the treaties were closely connected
with the treaty with Germany, the
president undoubtedly had authority
to keep information about them from
the senate if he chose.
The correspondence apparently
brought another impasse between the
president and committee on the much
debated subject of what information
the senators should have IN their con-
sideratiOn Of the treaty with Ger
many. Mr.. Lodge and others have
declared the committee could not act
intelligently until all of the Versailles
treaties were before it, but at the
White House conference Mr.. Wilson
told the committee that the form TO
be taken by the four treaties under
negotiation depended largely on the
senate's action regarding the instru-
ment now before it.
Rhine Agreement Withheld.
A copy OF the agreement of June

sional Record
The correspondence was made pub
lie by Mr.. Lodge, who indicated that
no further effort would be made by
the committee in the matter. The
committee did not meet yesterday,
but today it will resume its hearings
and probably will work on proposed
amendments and reservations to the
treaty with Germany.

The physical characteristics of the
land itself are important II the land
will require a great deal OF grading,
cutting or filling. the cost of making II
a practical site for home may be 20
excessive as to render a very undesir-
able purchase.
After the land Is selected the archi-

type OF house suitable for the site. In
this connection too much stress cannot
be laid upon the importance of having a
capable architect. A good architect can
lend individuality to an inexpensive or
moderate priced home which will make

a great deal more money
Architects fees range from to 10
per cent of the cost OF the building. AS
the work of designing and supervising
the erection of a small and compara-
lively inexpensive house calls for as
much ingenuity and thought as would
be expended upon more costly one,

The actual cost OF erecting a house
will vary in every locality, but tho fol.
lowing figures, taken from the contracts

In addition to these items must be
added the architects fee, which, as has
been previously stated, will range from
TO 10 per cent. of the cost of the house,
the cost of survey OF the property, the
premiums on accident insurance, fire IN
