Fighting the High Cost of Living

The raised prices. This had to be so because
the lighting nations wanted supplies and ready
pay in order to get those supplies and get them quickly
AT the same time the who went into the army were
taken Of fields and factories and made harder to
produce supplies
II is evident that when the railroads have to pay
their workmen more, they will have to charge more
for freight and passengers and when the farmer and
factory owner pay more to their work people, they
will have to charge more for farm products and factory
products.
The great trouble has BEEN however that when
prices went up the profees took advantage and raised
the prices than they needed to get a bigger
profit than they needed and larger profit BY far than
they ever had before.
Another trouble has been that the workmen who had
their wages raised began to buy avshly than they
had done before IL is really said that many people

achievements OF those who came
back and Of those who did not come
back" He reminded his hearers Of
the slowness Of America TO enter the
war, saying that ut Is not our war"
and that il was a rich mans war
and a poor mans fight" But when
ono day German submarine ap-
peared at one OF our eastern har-
bors, before we knew that IL was
coming, America began TO realize
that as long as this dragon was loose
in the world. no nation, not even
America, was safe. God, forgive
us" said the speaker, that we did
not get into the war at the begin
ing. But America was forced 10 be-
lieve that even in an educated ma
ton like Germany could exist q
flendish heart and saw that she
must fight against IL. Then came
the days OF preparation-unprece-
dented preparation. America sent
food, money, men with eager hearts.
II was the greatest war ever
fought-a war for peace, a war for
brotherhood, for human rights.
Every man who had a part in the
war will have a purer heart as he
thinks OF what he fought for. As
the commercial and political greed
and impurity is seen one thinks
not much has been gained by the
war, but more has been accomplish
cd than appears. There is great
need OF men like Roosevelt and
others. II is not sufficient TO defeat
Germany, but 10 defeat the Hun
spirit. The address ended with a
plea TO the boys 10 give the rest Of
their lives 20 this task, which can
be accomplished only by converting
Germany and those who have her
spirit, 10 the idea OF brotherhood
throughout the world. Continue al
the work until the Hun spirit be
washed away and be clean with the
true spirit Of America.

Mr.. Gay was in the Air Service OF
the Army for twenty-three and a

Of Americas training camps for

in war. He had met Quentin Roose-
welt in France, and he described
him as "the bravest and most cour-
ageous American soldier"
Mr.. John Miller represented the

Of the Armistice he was on sub
marine near the Azores. When the
wireless message came TO the crew,
they were disappointed that the war
was over, and were not convinced
of its truth for three days. He told
very clearly what the navy had

Rumania notice that she is expected
TO abide by the decisions Of the
Council and withdraw from Hun
gary. This attitude of Rumania is
similar to that of the Italians at
Fiume, and naturally they have the

of the Council TO bring these two

much to create a respect for the

ENCOURAGE BULLETS TO LAY
Avoid Any interruption Of Regular
Habits Or Radical Change in
FoWds Diet.

prepared by the United States Depart.
ment OF Agriculture.)
The growing pullet Is a creature Of
habit, thoroughly addicted to regular.
ity and vigorously opposed to disturb
ance and unusual commotion. 1t is
essential for the good Of the flock In
Its entirety that the pullets should
grow and improve like clockwork,
from the time Of Matching to maturity.
Laying Is often retarded by seemingly
trivial disturbances. such as moving
the fowl from place to place and
changing the makeup Of the ration.
In order to insure early eggs see to
1t that the growth Of the pullets Is
not retarded In any manner Whatever.
Almost without exception the pullet
whose growth from Matching to ma
turity has been regular. not subject
I" checks and Interruptions, is an
early layer. In support Of the state
ment that checked growtio results In
retarded laying, comes the fact that
May-hatched pullets often lay earlier
than others which were Matched in
April but retarded in the early stages
OF their growth by unfavOrable
weather. Retardation by weather
conditions. however. Is only one Of
many factors which may stunt the nor
nal growth Of a pullet and defer her
entrance to the laying class.
As a rule, egg production begins ut
or before the cessation of the pullet's
physical growth and development Of
the reproductive organs. Generally,
influences which hinder growth also
operate to delay egg production for
several months. Any disturbance af-
fecting the habits. quarters or COM
fort of the pullet at any stage Of her
life may retard laying. Shifting the
birds from place to place and abrupt
changes in the diet often disturb the
fowl enough to retard laying. In fact,
poultry fanciers who desire to keep
pullets In condition for exhibition
often use this means of keeping them
from laying. On the average, pullets
about to begin laying are more sem
s!tive to disturbances than ut any 9TH
