WANT THE TRUTH

T HOSE Democratic newspaper
organs of the Washington ad-
ministration which insist, with
hysterical emphasis, that the distin-
guished members of the United
States Senate who are out of agree
ment with the President on the
League of Nations provisions are lit
tie short of traitors to their coun-
try fail to discern any reason for
criticism of the course of President
Wilson in ignoring the Senate
throughout the peace negotiations.
Because these now refuse to accept
without discussion, amendment or
reserv alton all the provisions of the
remarkable document which is now
under review they are pilloried as
pygmy- minded and unpatriotic. 1t
matters little to this class of news
paper kowtowers that some of the
most able men in the country are
questioning the surrender of the Ma
tons sovereignty to an experimental
body that may prove of benefit or
develop as a grave menace to the
future peace of the United States.
When men of the great public
experience of w. H. Taft, Charles E.
Hughes. Elihu Root, PhiIander C..
Knox and scores of others declare in
favor of modification or reservations
there must be some reason for a
thorough discussion of the whole
matter, with view of maintaining
the inalienable rights of the Ameri-
can people.

sible the winning of the war when

FIGHTERS AND WORKERS

RENCHMEN are working as

Gus. Reliable reports indicate that
90 per cent. of the French destroyed
railroads are reconstructed and that
canal Communications in the north
and the east of France are 80 per
cent. restored. 1t is further stated
that all the French automobile fac
tories, which had been turning out
shells, artillery, tractors, Etc, are
once more in full swing building cars,
with plenty of purchasers in sight,
and deliveries have already begun.
French spinning and wooden indus
tries are ahead of the supply of raw
materials, and many factories in the
devastated regions have already re-
opened some have oil-paper ceilings
and canvas walls, and old machinery,
but they work.
The French Government has es-
tablished a large, new institution to
make loans to the people of the de-
vastated regions and discount the in
IDENTITIES allotted by the French
Government. The capital is sub
scribed, and any day, upon ratifica..
ton of the charter by the Parlia-
ment, the Credit National" will start
it's activities. The investment mar
ket is good, industrial bonds and
notes are eagerly absorbed; the City
of Paris has just issued loan of
1900, 100000 francs, which is quot
ed at per cent. premium.
The gist of this matter is that the
wonderful French nation is already
on its feet and working out its saliva
tion, as it did so marvelously in 1870.

upon this country any obligation to
become involved or entangled in an
alliance that may disastrously affect
our future position as free and in

President Wilson may have his
swing around the country and in
dulge in those beautiful glittering
generalties which he is so capable
of evolving, but he is going to en-
counter a different atmosphere from
that which he manifestly anticipates
when he comes into close touch with
the people. They have not forgot

Store Visits Customers
[From Popular Mechanics. ]

A man in Dallas, Tex, has a whole
grocery store mounted on a motor
truck and takes a complete stock of
household supplies to the very doors
of his customers. The travelling en-
porium is of the self help variety;
the proprietor driver remains at the
wheel of his craft, his patrons max
ing their own selections and deliver
les. A fixed time schedule is OBJ
served, and the customer whose pur-
chases are not completed when time
is up, gets a short ride to the next
stop. The pecuniary arrangement
is "pay as you leave"

WISE POULTRY FEEDING
LEARNED FROM NATURE
Federal Department Of Agriculture
Says Spring Production Of Eggs
Is an Easy Matter,

The nutriment in the feed OF lay
ing hens serves a two-fold purpose
to repair waste and furnish heat
to the body and to supply the egg
making materials: AS only the
surplus over what is needed for the
body is available for egg prOduc-
tion, the proper feeds should be
fed in sufficient quantities to in
duce this production.
In supplying feed to fowls there
are three kinds of constituents
which should be present in certain
fairly well fixed proportions if the
desired results are to be obtained
most economically. These constitu-
ents are mineral, nitrogenous, and
carbonaceous, all of which are con
tained in corn, wheat, oats and bar
ley, but not in the right proper
tions to give the greatest egg yield.
In addition some animal feed and
green feed should be supplied.
In feeding poultry a valuable
lesson may be learned from nature
In the spring the production of
eggs on the farm is an easy mat
ter. Fowls which are at liberty to
roam and find an abundance of
green and animal feed on their
range. which with grain furnishes
a perfect ration for laying hens. In
addition to this they get plenty of
exercise and fresh aiFr So far as
lies within his power, then, the
feeder should aim to make the win

The production of wheat in Colo

tion ever recorded in the state, the
previous record crop being that OF
1918, 13,536,OOO bushels. This big
increase in output of wheat is the
result OF very heavy increase in

Menien, OF the city health bureau.
who says that cats are not q nuisance
N any sense OF the word and that
they do great deal toward promot
ing the general health OF the city by
killing of rats and mice.
Menten says his department has
not had a complaint on cats. He
says that hi, department may collect
about three dead cats each week, but
never molcStS the live ones.
No Over Supply Here.
I'm my opinion there is not an over
supply Of cats here says Men,en,
and the reason he gives is that it is a
prevalent custom to drown all but
one or two OF a litter OF kittens,
thereby creating only a reasonable
feline population here.
And, besides, II we start killing
of the cats, We would soon have
all the women IN the city up in arms
against u.s." he says.

New Church for Entwistle

1t is now a certain fact that
Entwistle will build a new Bap-
fist church. This idea is a new
one and will be carried out be-
fore it gets old. Every possible
effort is being made to hasten
the erection of this church. First
class lumber is now being placed
on its beautiful site, and at the
earliest date possible will be
pointed toward the sky. The
writer has an idea that in three
months from now a service can
be held in this building.
Why? Because we have al
ready raised nearly enough cash
to pay for our framing. And we
have some right encouraging sub!
scriptions we have not yet touch

subscribed $4,000; the Entwistle

covering it; Mr.. w. A. Hope has

Jim Dockery, $4,000; Mr.. H. c.
Watson, $4,000; then Mr.. R. L,

much as $500; but ] do not have
