RETIRING THE LIBERTY BONDS

During the Liberty Loan drives ev-
eryone was active in the distribution
of the war issues, and the public was
we'll In formed as TO exactly what
was being done in the way OF receiv-
ing subscriptions from day to day.
The retirement OF the bonds, how
ever, is proceeding in n much less
spectacular way. BY July 1, 1921, II
present treasury estimates are fulfill
led, over one and one-half billion of
the war issues should have been TAX
en- over by the government.
The National City Company of New
Yark has been making a study of this
situation and finds that up TO June
30, 1920, the government had redeem
ed on account OF the per cent red
emption fund. S1,224006,000 war
bonds, all OF which were undoubted-
ly purchased at a discount. The pric-
es which II paid for the securities,
are not, however, public information.
From July / 10 August 81, 1920. the
eovernment redeemed $10,17S,250 ad-
ditional bonds. these purchases evid-
emily being made for the 2h per CT
sinking fund which became operat-
i've on July / last. Under the terms
and conditions OF this fund. the sec
retary OF the treasury is authorized
at his discretion to purchase annual
ly 2ik per cent OF the amount OF
bonds outstanding. less the sums
heretofore advanced to the allied nat
ions. According 20 the treasury fig-
ures, Il is estimated that the purch-
ase for the present fiscal year. under
this fund, will aggregate $250,0OO'O0o
OF bonds.
After taking into account the fig
ures and comparing them with
statement of the Treasury Depart
ment showing the amount OF bonds
outstanding o nMay 81, 1920, namely
$40 GA, ,GS4.l $50. We find discrepancy
OF approximately $590.OO0.O00. This
difference is undoubtedly covered by
the amount Of bonds which the Treas
ury Department purchased from the
War Finance Corporation, the later
having made the purchase In the
bond market while the war was on,

men win be taught particularly, to

out this region plan which has not
only increased lamb consumption
throughout other sections or the
country. but has awakened the con-
sumer 10 the fact that mutton Is, act
ually, one OF the most healthful OF
meats. as well as the most delectable
when properly selected and prepared.
The reason OF the movement Ia ur-
gent need OF greater lamb consump-
tion II the shecp-raising industry OF
the country is to be protected and en-
couraged. 1t Is pointed out that the
average per capita consumption OF
lamb and sheep meat In the country
is only five pounds per year, against
seven lbs. OF val, sixty-seven pounds
OF beef and seventy-one pounds OF
pork.
In their work in upper Michigan
Messrs Modeer and Maloney will dem
onstrate TO the meat dealers, and men

clover-laden range OF upper Michigan.
They will describe how a greater con-
sumption OF lamb throughout the dis
trict will not only keep the sheep
raising industry alive in upper Michi-
gan, but will encourage its growth
and progress.
Asked why the per capita consump-
ton OF lamb in the country was so
small. Mr.. Modeer said: Because a
few unscrupulous dealers began by
foisting goat meat, spoiled cuts and
meats from aged animals upon the
public. There is no finer meat than
young lamb, and. doubtless for that
reason, II is the kind OF meat which

Conclusion
There is a decided and increasing
tendency towards Industrial progress
throughout upper Michigan today.
Communities are giving more atten-
tion to advertising their natural res
ource, and are laying particular
stress upon the efficient accomodat-
ion OF the tourist traffic, as distinct
asset to every community and the reg
ion in general The bigger industrial
interests below the Straits are like

CHAPTER vi.

Ordinarily Mr.. Cullen was satisfied
to bring a single evening paper home
with him and when he laid it on the
hall table it was generally creased
down the financial page; but tonight
he brought two, and each Of them had
wrinkles across the market reports
and were folded so as to feature the
departments devoted to local news
The Journal had beaten the Herald by
two sticks and subhead, but the Her.
aid had honOred Dicky Morgan with
kindly editorial and both papers had
stated explicitly where billiard was
making his headquarters. MIR. Cullen
would have been seriously offended II
he hadn't been mentioned at least once
in each paper and this Is no more
reflection upon his vanity than the fact
that he cherished lively anticipation
for what the Post-Standard was gong

Nevertheless, there was a fly in the
ointment-not very much OF fy, 10

Cullen was also the tinieSt bit OF
snob-not a carping, contemptuous,
supercilious snob, but healthy
hearty, open-spirited snob, frank in
his liking for the things he liked-and
one of them was to be somebody, and
have the neighbors know it. He liked
to fraternize with important men; ne
liked to see his name in the paper
now and then he liked to feel superior
lust one harmless little degree more
conseauential--than his next-door
Deighbor. And the neighb0r, Of course,
had to share this conviction, or there
wasn't any purpose in it.
And Mr.. Cullen, with all his ingenu-
Gus weakness for prominence, hadn't
