SOLDIER PROTESTS
AGAINST CRITICS
RETURNS FROM FRANCE FILLED
WITH ADMIRATION FOR
AMERICAN IDEALS

We are in receipt of the following
communication from w. 5. BurleIgh
who served with the American army
in France, and in which he protests
against the spirit of criticism mani
tested by SO many persons who dlo
nothing to win the war, but have
been obstructionists from the start
Mr.. Burleigh's able article is not pub
lished in the "Contribution Box" be-
cause it's Importance entities it to a
place of greater prominence.
1t was written at Camp Knox,
Kentucky, where Mr.. Burleigh was
stationed with many other western
soldiers. It follows:
The 9Th Field Artillery Brigade has
after sevearl months of migratory
manners, finally lit down in the ia
nous blue garss country, noted for
its pretty women, fast horses and
good whiskey, and we are. relaxing
from the strain of three months
campaign that has led us over some
twelve thousand miles of earth's sur
face.
I desire to comment upon your edl-
torial of some weeks ago, relative to
the chronic critic 1 believe this to
be the worst and NEST dangerous vice
the American people possess -"our
besetting sim"
AS l am in position to note the eff
feet of this sort of propaganda now
being waged by enemies of the pres
ent administration upon the returning
soldier, / believe this form of Bolshe-
vism should be held in allegiance until
such time as our country fully recov-
ers from the effects of the great
war.
It will be noted that we have sew
eral specie of critics. Perhaps. the
greater number belong to the indo-
lent element that criticises everything
from the creation of the universe to
the "chow" they consume. Next we
have the ignoramous who criticises
because he knows no better. But the
critic, who from some ulterior motive
other than that of the common good,
criticises every act and deed of our
great leaders, especially those minis
tering to the affairs of state, mill
sary or otherwise, is, in my estima-
lion, the bost contemplate of either
Of the classes. Their acts and ex-
pressions do not spring from the same
brain as the unfortunate hook worm
victim. Neither can he be compared

the great Victory loan. This song
follows:
Victory War-Yers
Spring; with it's wonder of sky and
song
Spring; with it's green roads winding
long
Spring; with its promise of future
joys;
Springtime and blossoms-but oh the
Stark in the stained fields lying
Spring. with its fragrance of scented
Spring; with it's simmer of sunshine
fair
Spring; with it's mate-notes breaking
through
Flower-land and bird-land and boy
land too,
And mother alone by the old gate,
crying.
Active work for the Victory loan
has begun and some excellent results
have been secured The following
report of work done in northern Ida
ho has been given with view to en-
couraging others to follow these ex-
amples
AT conference of the Victory Loan
workers of five north Idaho counties
held recently an interesting report
of what others had done in former
loans was made. 1t should serve as
an inspiration to men and women at
work on the coming loan. Following
are a few of the things ambitious
women undertook and put through.
One woman in Clearwater county, a
widow with five children, and limited
in means bought hundred dollar
bond herself, sold one fifty dollar bond
to each of two church organizations
in the community; planned, arranged
for and help direct a big Substitute
Sale" Certain things being advertised
and then substituted for) which netted
$500 for bonds, the bonds being pur-
chased in the name of the Town I'm
provement club.
Another town reported having Ia
ken in $1,000 for bonds sold at a For
eign Nations Supper and Dance. The
principal dish of each nation repre-
sented in the vicinity being served.

A teacher of expression and princi-
pal of schools in a mining cOmmun-
ity took her class of ten pupils out
to a number of the camps on Sunday
afternoons and gave entertainments,
taking up a collection at each camp
and selling some bonds. Five hun
dred and sixty dollars were netted in
this way.
One woman in Benewah county was
reported to have sold $4,000 worth
of bonds herself, going out to lumber
camps, to small towns and soliciting
the farmers in the fields. The board
of education of the st. Maries school
district voted to invest all available
funds to the amount of $4,000 in bonds
during the last loan drive. In addi-
ition to this. the pupils of the high
school veted to purchase a $500 bond
and the Lincoln school $50 bond.
These bonds to be purchased in the
name of the school, The teachers of
these schools invested in personal
bonds $1250. The students of the
schools invested $500 in bonds ma
king total of $3O5O for the school
unit. Their war-saving stamp pur-
chases brought the total up to $5074

from cooking for 13 men and milking
16 cows At small health resort in
California the chairman of the wom-
ans committee sold $4,000 worth of
dc G200
In some counties tithing boxes in
the shape of cardboard banks were
distributed in which to collect coins
for the first payment on bond. This
proved very successful
In Nashville, Tenn, the woman's
committee working through street
booths sold GA per cent of the city
quota. In this state the Federation of
Women's clubs invested all available
corporate funds in bonds.
In Wisconsin 10000 women enlisted
for bond selling. 10000 towns and
cities were organized by the woman's
Committee
In Tonapah, Nevada, the mems
committee asked the women's COM
mittee to take over the entire solic-
iting of bonds as their success in the
Third Loan had been so phenominal.
In Mclean county, North Dakota,
one woman sold bonds to SO Indian
women.
At this conference plans were made
by a number of the leaders to form
an organization of women who will |
hold themselves in readiness to re-
spond to a call in a minutes notice. |
They are divided into units-automo |
bile. speakers, clerical and typists, |
decorating, telephone and poster-ma-
king. The success of Cape Giradeau |
county, Missouri, was remarkable in
the last drive and was attributed large
ly to this organization of women.

LAND BOOM on IN EAST.
MUST STRIKE HERE.

4 real land boom is on in Kansas
and Nebraska, reports J. y. Davis,
who arrived Tuesday 70 stay with US
a few weeks. $500 an acre is COM
mon price. Land is changing hands
at forty and fifty thousand per quar-
ter section. This agrees with the re
port given by J a. Steele, who de
rIarcs that first class Illinois land is
everywhere quoted around 500 an
acre.
Why then should anyone be pessi-
misiic about GuuuisOn land. This
spring there has been unusual activity
here, and at least a quarter million
dollars worth Of hay and grain land
has changed hands, but at prices
raging from $50 to $40. Land must
20 up in proportion 70 the price of
products. The high price OF things
n general is due 70 expansion of the
currency, not 10 the war.
Here is a prediction that within
1--WE years, Gunnison land will sell at
500 an acre rather than at $50 and
SO.

Field and Farm:-Eycry year we
are moro and more Impressed with the
advantages Of having an irrigated
pasture on each farm. 1t is safe TO
say that an acre under irrigation is
worth more than n dozen Of dry acres
Of short grass. Irrigated pastures
have no dormant season IL the mix
ture Of various grasses is used Sup
piled with plenty Of moisture and
sun shine there is a continuous growth
with no halt thru a dry week or two.
II land worth 500 to $3.50 an acre in
the corn belt can be utilized for pas
ture with profit, there is no reason
why irrigated lands cannot be depend
ed upon TO return profit thru livestock.
The late o. F. Boyle of La Plata
county thought so, and il is the plan
followed by f. II. Gruhb Of Garfield
county, for the most of his big ranch
has been put TO mixed grasses for the
use Of purc-bred cattle.

The eradication of running willows
from hay meadows is becoming quite
n problem on some ranches. Ed
Allen tells US that he had some of the
worst patches in the county, but got
nd Of them by cutting early in Au-
gust, for two or three seasons. II
cut later, the strength has gone back
into the roots for winter, but in early
August. ordinary moving will pretty
nearly finish them. This is worth
knowing, for the same thing applies
TO grubbing out willows where they
are taking ditch banks. Not much
use to grub early in the spring or
late in the fall. Mr.. Allen says the
professors at Fort Collins sent him
this information.
