UNTITLED PLEDGES
STILL HOLD GOOD
Earnest Request is Made to
All Subscribers to Redeem
Promptly Their War Saw
ings Stamp Pledges.

Pledges made to invest in War Saw
ings Stamps have been automatically
extended to 1919 by the government,
which has made official announce
ment that persons who, for any rea-
son, did not complete their pledges
by December 81. 1918, may and are
expected to liquidate these pledges by
investing in War Savings Stamps of
the new 1919 issue.
The 1919 War Savings Stamps are
blue in color and trifle smaller than
those issued last year. They bear a
likeness of Benjamin Franklin, the
apostle of thrift and economy. The
1919 War Savings Stamps which yield
their owners four per cent interest,
compounded quarterly, may be obtain
ed from any postoffice, bank, or other
authorized agent.
Thrift Stamps and Thrift Cards
used last year remain in use during
1919, and filed Thrift Cards, that is,
Thrift Cards on which sixteen Thrift
Stamps have been affixed, may be ex-
upon the payment Of the few addi.
tional cents which represent the DIFF
ference between the price of War
Savings Stamp and 81, the value OF
the sixteen Thrift Stamps.
Purchasers OF 1919 War Savings
Stamps should bear in mind that 1913
War Savings Stamps are to be affixed
only to 1919 War Savings Certificates
Although one may have a 1918 War
Savings Certificate (the parchment
on which War Savings Stamps are at
fixed) which has untitled space on IL
such 1918 certificate should not have
1919 War Savings Stamps pasted on
It; nor should 1918 War Stamps be
placed on the new 1919 War Savings
Certificate. Keep the two years sep
arate.

FARM PROFITS
WILL AID LOAN
Rural Business Men Are Well
Able to Take Up Their
Share in the Victorious"
Fifth.

More than ever before the American
farmer finds himself in the position
OF comfort and prosperity which Is
MS just due. Lean years are for him,
no longer. Last year the average OF
farm earnings bBohe all records. Six
million farms In 1918 produced crops
worth 81, ESQ zoe, 600.
This year it is estimated that o
greater wheat acreage than ever win
be sown. Naturally, the farmer Is
making the most Of his opportunities
and with guaranteed wheat prices
and high prices for everything b
grows, the outlook for him is most
encouraging. And Europe VIII fur
nish a market for his fat hogs and
steers.
1t would be interesting, II possible,
to assemble comparative statements
q the farmers bank accounts now
and hve years ago, and the list Of
mortgages that have been cancelled.
And it would be more interesting per.
haps to have a statement Of the Lib
erty Bonds now IN the hands Of these
tillers OF the soil.
Very soon the farmer will have fur
Their opportunity to prove that he Is
not without loyalty as we'll developed
as any mans. For another loan is
almost in sight, q loan that will draw
upon us all.
Because OF his price guarantee Of
S1 lG q hI1dhnl Tvncla ato Nd e.
lose from so to rs cents upon every
bushel Of wheat harvested next seas
on. Having given this guarantee to
the farmer, he will make it good.
That is Uncle Sans way. But what
is Mr.. Farmer going to do for Uncle
Sam in the Victory Liberty Loan?
In every Liberty Loan to date the
farmer. as a class, has bought less
bonds than men in other prosperous
classes. He has been able meantime
to get more sugar and everything
else upon which the government put
restriction, than others have.
The big question now, when he
stands to cash in at a IS per cent
premium upon his wheat crop. is what
is he going to do next Liberty Loan
drive?
Some Liberty Loan officials are
suggesting that the farmer should
buy 800 bond for each 100 bushels
of wheat he sells to the government
He has made the profit and should
have no hesitancy in taking a high
grade security in payment for the diff.
ference between what the govern
, ment gets and what he receives for
his wheat

HOLD ON TO WAR
SAVINGS STAMPS
Secretary of Treasury Urges
Citizens to Keep Govern
ment Securities Until They
Shall Have Matured.

Carter Glass, Secretary Of the Unit
ed States Treasury, has issued a warn
ing to patriotic American citizens
against INSCRIPTIONS persons who ad-
vertise that they are willing to pur-
chase War Savings Stamps. Mr.. Glass
does not wish to have the government
securities sold at sums below their
actual value.
He points out that people who are
actually in need of money may take
their War Savings Stamps to post
office and receive cash. Mr.. Glass
urges holders to keep their stamps
until maturity.
He states that War Savings Stamps
belong only to the individual who first
purchased them and that people who
offer to buy stamps at low premium
are violating the letter Of the law in
so doing. Men and women selling
stamps are not only losing money
which rightfully belongs to them, but
are aiding INSCRIPTIONS agents to
reap profits.

WHY ONE MORE
LOAN IS NEEDED
It Will Settle Nations War
Debts and Will Care for
Sick and Wounded.

Once in q while some one asks:
Whats the need OF another Liberty
Loaa now that the war L. over?"
ReveRss from ta1es will not be suf-
noent to pay all the bills, so the
people will be called upon to provide
the meRey BY subscribing to govern
ment ko0ds. This money is going to
pay OF the army Of producers at home
tho farmers. merchants, mauufae-
turers and others.
America had just begun to fight
when the Hun decided 1t was time to
quit. Allied leaders expected the war
to last another year and the United
ships, arms, ammunition and food to
overwhelm Germany in one big
drive.
Treasury officials have revealed
that in 1918 America would have had
tank at the front for every seventy
ten tons Of mustard gas ready for
shipment for every ton Germany
could produce. Thousands Of batter
les OF guns would have been in act
ion for every one America had in 1918.
Everything else was being produced
in proportion.
This gigantic preparation brought
an early end to the war and saved
thousands OF lives. Victory Liberty
Bonds will pay for this work which
had been contracted for and was be-
ing delivered when the armistice was
signed
There are other purposes for which
money is need. Part of our army OF
1000, 900 men must be kept in Europe
until the peace treaty is signed.
These soldiers must be fed, clothed
and otherwise maintained. Then they
must be brought home.
The sick and wounded must be car
ed for in hospitals. The army must
be demobilized. There are thousands
Of manned soldiers, heroes of the
great war, who must be taught self
supporting trades and given an oppor-
tunity to earn their living.
This reconstruction work at home
must be carried on. The job must be
finished. The American people who
furnished the money to win the war
must supply it also to bring the ma
ton back to peace basis.

Facsimile Of Last Memorandum Of
Colonel Roosevelt PenciTed a Few
Hours Before He Died.

view the country and the Republican
party are indebted for the publication
of this interesting document which car
r1es message from him "who, being
dead, yet speaketh." In the leading
article of the current number Of the
North American Review Colonel Har-
vey sets forth the vital import of this
last penciled notation of Mr.. Roose-
welt. He says:
Mr.. Roosevelt died the acknowl-
edged leader of the great party into
which he was born. His last written
words, penciled by his own hand few
hours before his death and addressed
in the form of a memorandum for the
brilliant young man for whose selec-
ton as Chairman of the National or
ganization he was largely responsible,
were these, as reproduced above In
facsimile:
"'Hays
see him; he must go to Washington
for 10 days; see Senate and House;
prevent split on domestic policies
Here is evidenced as clearly as if the
few words filed volume Mr.. Roose-
velt's realization of both his RESPONSE
billty and his obligation. The simple
memorandum marked the Inauguration
of definite party policy, to be carried
through to no less definite conclusion.
1t was more than a passing thought or
a mere suggestion. 1t was a Message,
signifying the need of immediate and
unremitting vigilance in achieving
complete unity of action in resolving
domestic problems before attacking
those of wider range soon TO be thrust
upon the country-a true soldiers call
first to close the ranks
Nothing could be more characteris-
tic or more clearly illustrative of the
breadth of vision, the foresight, the
directness in method and the painstak-
ing attention of the man. Nothing,
too, probably could have served his
purpose better than that these words
should have been his last. Difficult as
it is to reconcile oneself to the decree
Of Divine Providence that the re-
moval of that great patriot at this cru
cial moment was not untimely, we cam
not but realize, as he would have been
the first to acknowledge, that the last
vestige of animosities which might
have continued to impair his highest
aspirations was buried with him, and
thereby the perfect union which he so
ardently desired against all things I'M
American was attained.
'Thus we find the Republican party
resuming full legislative authority
thoroughly united and invigorated by
the peculiar confidence which 80 often
carried 1t to victory In former years. u

R0OSEELT'S DEPARTING
WORDS TO HIS C0UNTRYMEk

Col. Roosevelt died about o'clock
on the morning Of January 8. The
previous evening at great patriotic
rally in the New York Hippodrome a
message was read from him. written
especially for the occasion. In II was
this striking sentence:
"We have room for but one flag, the
American flag, and this excludes the
red flag, which symbolizes all wars
against liberty and civilization just as
much as It excludes any foreign nag
Of a nation to which we are hostile.
- and we have room for but one
soul loyalty, and that Ia loyalty 10 the
ADssScan people"

"If you think you are beaten, you are;
If you think you are not, you don't;
If you like to win, but you think you
can't;
It's almost certain you won't"
