they should be discharged as

We will Mis-. Him.

America will miss Theodore
Roosevelt as family missel
one of it's deceased members.
The Colonel was to the nation
at the time Of his death a sort
of elder brother. We did moi
begin to think of entering the
world war until Roosevelt had
made up his mind that it was
the proper thing to do and had
publicly called upon this nation
to defend itself against German
aggression. From that day on
it was Roosevelt who was fear.
ed in Washington because in
spite of the opinions OF political
opponents in power he was by
sheer force of his personality
driving the nation to take up
arms and defend its honor.
This only goes to show that
the country had fer years tacit-
ly admitted to itself that Roose
welt was the dominating Ameri
can. He was our first national
ist since the DAYS of the civil
war. That is the thing which
made him stroHg g-with the putr
lie from one end Of the countr,
to the other. His first thought
was for his country. tiled him
to offer his own services as a
fighter and it led him to dedi-
cate his sons to the nations de.
fense and glory with them in
their efforts.
Because he was continually y
thinking first about America
aud it's needs the people of A.
merica unconsciously looked tn
him for his opinion before any
national program was undertak
en-. Whatever proposal Of ma
tional character might come
thu Qisestion or. peat. -tengn~-
the next day was: What will
Roosevelt say to that?" And
what he did say had an impor-
taut hearing on the result. We
Americans are going to miss
Roosevelt as our guide to good
Americanism South b g n d

Billion Dollars Wastsd
Yearly in handling Corn crop

The greatest waste in any
single industry in this country
Is made with the cotn crop"
says Prof. H. N. Cottrell in Col
oraoo Agricultural Colleges
News. THE grain Of the an
nual corn crop of the United
States is worth on the farms
one and a half billion dollars.
In ripe corn plant. go percent
OF the feed value 10 contained in
the kernels and 40 per. cent ia
the stalk and leaves. With the
grain worth one and q half bill
lion dollars the feed value Of
the rest of the crop 10 q billion
dollars. AT least 80 per cent Of
the feed value of the stalk 10
lost under the present system
of farm management--a waste
with this crop alone of almost
a billion dollars yearly. No 9th
er business but forming could
stand such an enormous loss.
In the New England and
middle states most of the stalk .
are saved AZ fodder, and there
are many silos, but with the
damage from weatherinR, the
waste in handling and the loss
in digestiblility from drying.
the farmers, who do not use ri-
los, are very far from utilizing
the full feed value of the corn
stalk. In the corn belt, where
the bulk of the corn 10 raised.
comparatively few corn growers
harvest the stink. and the only
returns most of them secure

Contrast this waste by the
corn grower with the practices
of large business organizations
For years the great packing
houses have sold dressed rneats
for less than they have paid for
the live weight Of the animal.
Yet every year these pack
ing bouses return millions ot

a hal! column of his valuable

which attack he grossly misrep

have his readers believe that,
simply because the county com

a delegation of taxpayers did
not, at the expense of our coun'

Denver last week. the best in
teresta of our county were gross

This meeting was the annual

ers in which meeting each
county is entitled to but one
vote. Our county commission
ers talked over the matter OF
sending a Il. legation to this
meeting and concluded that,
under the law. such delega-
