KEEP LIBERTY BONDS
More Should Be Purchased at
Present Market Quotations.
Financial Experts Believe Every
Issue Will Be Above Par Within
Few Years.

Paralleling the treasury depart
ment's effort to bring about wider
realization of the value of investment
in war savings stamps and treasury
savings certificates, call has been
sounded urging the public to make the
most of the markets investment op-
portunities by purchasing Liberty
bonds at their present quotations. It
is pointed out that it is just as patri-
otto today to buy Liberty bonds at
81, IS or SO as it was to buy them at
100, while on the other hand, it makes
the investment just that much better
for the man who buys. For instance,
AZ per cent Liberty Bond, if bought
at 81 for example, yields 4.52 per cent.
1t is pointed out also that the fall in
value which has taken place in some
Liberty bond issues is an excellent
reason why those who own the bonds
should hold them now, rather than sur
the bond, the buyer tacitly agreed to
let the government have the money for
10 or 20 years, or whatever the term
was. He gets less for the bond, it
sold now, because he does not abide
by the implied terms of the agreement.
He wants his money back now instead
of waiting the period of years stated
on the bond he bought.
Every bond will be worth par at
maturity and long before that time
in the opinion of leading bankers.
Financial experts are Of the belief
that every issue Of Liberty bonds will
go above par within a few years. AS
capital piles up again and interest
rates drop, the rates borne by the Lib
erty issues will seem correspondence
large and the value of the principal as
invested, the bond itself, will be cor
respondingly greater.
In spite Of repeated warnings, Lib
erty Bond owners still continue to lis
ten to the smooth-tongued sharpers
who have farciful stocks that they will
trade for perfectly good Liberty Bonds.
Look before you leap" is the advice
Of the Treasury Department "Inves-
tigate very carefully before you make
purchases Of stock and consider
prayerfully before you trade Govern
ment securities for anything on earth"

'PREVENTION'' FIRST IN CARE
IA 35. i. OF SHEEP. ;"

Parasitical diseases Of sheep are hard
to light and overcome. DR.. G. P. Fitch,
head OF the division of veterinary med
icine, believes that the ounce of pre-
vention is worth more than the pound
of cure. He says:
Most diseases of sheep are caused
by parasites, such as stomach and lung
worms, mango, ticks, and tape worms.
In Minnesota the losses due to stom-
ach worms are probably the heaviest;
next to them probably is the toll taken
by lung worms. Any treatment for
lung worms is unsatisfactory and sheep
afflicted with them should be disposed
of promptly. Diseases caused by
stomach worms can be treated to good
purpose by the use of one per cent solu-
ton of copper sulphate, 100 cubic cen
timeters for the older sheep and half
that quantity for lambs. The solution
is given in the form of drench and
should be repeated once or twice at in
tervals Of ten days, care being taken
not to get the fluid into the windpipe
of the animal. Tape worm can be ex-
PEELED by the use of aspidium other
wise known as the extract of male fern.
"Prevention' should be emphasized
in the matter of sheep diseases. Farm
ers and breeders should exercise every
possible care when buying sheep to
avoid bringing infested animals into
the country. Newly purchased animals
should be kept by themselves and con-
fined to single fields for the first six
months. In this way the spreading of
disease to original focks can be reduc-
ed to the minimum. Now that the
sheep raising industry is being stimu-
important that all breeders inquire
carefully into the history of flocks from
which they may purchase. All import
ed stock should be closely inspected by
a competent veterinarian

BANKERS HENS NET HIM $1,000
A YEAR.

Frank E. Bauer, bank cashier Of Bar
mum, Carlton county, says he is going
to make a net profit this year of 81, 900
from his flock Of White Leghorn chick
ems. N. E. Chapman, poultry specialist
of the extension division of the state
agricultural college, who induced Mr..
Bauer to go into the chicken business
back in 1915 and who has kept close
check on the side line of the banker
every year since, is likewise positive
that the Bauer chicken ranch will
show profits this year of $1,000, if not
more.
Mr.. Bauer's "ranch'' is the back of
two lots on the corner of business
street. In 1915 he made profit of
$115 on a flock of 1913 chickens pur
chased when they were a. day old. In
1916 his returns above the cost of feed
for 500 chickens were $514. Every
year since, his Lcghorns have made a
substantial addition to his income. This

who wish to have their investment IN
q more convenient form than the
books Of stamps have the privilege Of
exchanging War Savings Stamps Of
the 1919 issue for treasury savings
certificates. Cards filled with 20 war
savings stamps, total maturity value
500, can be exchanged for 500 treas
ury savings certificates. Owners of
ten such cards, with total maturity
value of $1,000, can exchange them for
a $1,000 certificate"
The treasury department., In issuing
the savings certificates, was convinced
that their unusual attractiveness as an
investment would assure large sales,
quite apart from appeals for support
of the government by loans or argu
ments as to the personal advantages Of
saving and investment. But these
arguments apply and add overwhelm'
ing weight to the reasons why treasury
savings certificates should be pur-
chased now.
Purchasing of war savings stamps
and treasury savings certificates In
any one year is limited to $1,000 by
any individual or corporation. This
total is reached by purchase of one
$1,000 certificate, ten 500 certificates
or 200 War Savings Stamps of S. ma
turity value. The $1,000 limit may be
bought each year, however, purchases
in 1918, for instance having nothing
to do with the 1919 purchase privilege.
In August 500 certificates sell for
$3.50 and $1,000 certificates for 1888.
The former increase 20 cents month
in value and the latter So monthly.
