THRIFT AND LOW PRICES

The United States government paid
out more than $6,0O0,O00 on Septem-
Der Is in semi-annual interest to
holders of Third Liberty loan bonds
i'm the Twelfth Federal Reserve dis
trict. This interest payment, added
to the two previous interest INSTALL
ments paid on Third loan bonds by
the government gives a total of near
ly $18,00O,000 earned since May, 1918,
by the $287 ,975,000 invested by 1902
684 purchasers of bonds of the Third
loan in this Federal Reserve district.
BE sure and clip your coupons
and cash them" is the advice broad
casted to holders of the Third loan
bonds by Robert E. Smith, director
Of the war loan organization of the
Twelfth Federal Reserve district.
"Coupons uncashed are idle money. 1t
is no trouble to cash your coupons.
just clip the September Is coupon
will get your money. 1t is mo- more
trouble than getting change for a
bill"
If all the bondholders in America
cash their coupons there will be in
circulation nearly $85,000,000 more
money than was in circulation pre-
viously. That is approximately the
total amount of interest to be paid
out on the Third loan.
Here is a chance for the people
to hit high prices hard blow" said
Director Smith Every man,
woman and child who owns a Third
loan bond should cash the coupon
and Immediately buy thrift or war
savings stamps or treasury savings
certificates, which bear more interest
than the bonds. Investment of the
Third loan bond interest at the bank
window Immediately upon cashing
the coupons will keep that 5000
600 out of circulation and thus help
keep prices down.
Il cannot urge too strongly the wis
dom of letting the government keep
this interest money and, not only that
but continued buying of war savings
stamps out of every pay envelope. Il
everyone in the United States would
set aside something each week for
war savings stamps, earning them 4
per cent interest compounded every
three months, it would be a very short
time until there would be no
ticable drop in prices"

LICE INJURIOUS TO TURKEYS
Common Body Louise Of Chickens 10
Often Found In Sufficient Num-
bers to Be Harmful.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
Four species Of lice are commonly
found on turkeys In this country. One
OF these, which occurs particularly on
turkeys associated with chickens, Is
the common body louise of chickens.
This species Is not found In great
numbers on turkeys, but II sometimes
becomes sufficiently abundant to cause
considerable irritation and doubtless
Is Injurious both to the grown fowls
and to the young. The shaft louise OF
chickens also has been found on tur-
keys but probably does not breed on
that host. The other two species
seem to be native to the turkey, prob
ably existing on this fowl In the Wild
state. The large turkey louise prob
ably is most abundant. 1t occurs on
the feathers on various parts OF the
body. especially on the neck ana
breast. The slender turkey louise Is
species of good size, though rather
elongate, resembling In shape the
head louise Of chickens. Normally
neither Of these species Is excessively
abundant, but on unthrlfty turkeys
they may cause serious annoyance.

This is especially true in those states
which have Il comparatively large
number Of cars and only small mile
age of improved roads. Thus, Illinois,
last November approved bond Issue
of S60.000,000 for the construction of a

EARTH ROADS IN CONDITION
Drainage Is Chief Essential In Putting
Earth Roads In Proper Shape
Drag Must Be Used.

It can be truthfully said that drain
age Is the chief essential In putting
earth roads into proper condition. An
old ScOtchman, an expert road builder,
aptly said that the three requirements
of good earth roads are, drainage, more
drainage, and still more drainage. e.
w. Lehman of the University Of Mis-
souri, college of agriculture indorses
this sentiment and adds: Roads must
not only have good surface drainage
but must also have good underdrain-
age. Surface drainage is secured by
proper grading, adequate side bitches,
and by keeping the crown of the road
properly dragged. Stretches of road
that do not dry out quickly must be
undetermined by tile.
The drag must be used after each
rain, II the best results are to be Sc
cured. Don't go on the road while too
muddy, let 1t dry out slightly; 1t should
be wet enough, however, so 1t Will not
crumble, but smear When properly
used, the drag brings thin layer of
earth toward the center of the road
which is rolled and packed between
wet periods. If too much crown is Sc
cured by dragging the angle of the
drag should be reversed.
Getting the earth -oads graded,
bitches open. well drained and prop
erly crowned by dragging is about all
that can be done until the people are
ready to surface the road with gravel,
broken stone or some other surfacing
material.
