proximately 10000 elk roam this sec
ton Of the country. They are divided
into two groups, known as the north
ern and southern herd, respectively.
The latter, which winters In the Vi
clnity Of Jackson Hole, to the south
OF Yellowstone park, is the one for
which the department Of agriculture
Is seeking to make provision.
Ranehmen Slow to Part With Hay.
Reports have recently been received
from government representatives In
the region of Yellowstone national
park stating that many elk are des-
tined to starve II the present severe
weather continues and II no additional
supplies of feed are provided. On the
winter elk refuge In jackson Hole the
department has In store approximate
ly 1900 tons Of hay which normally
would be sufficient to carry the south
ern herd through the winter. But cold
weather and heavy SHOWS came so
early that there is grave danger that
the animals will be without feed be-
fore many weeks have passed. Ranch
men In the region are confronted with
a serious condition and are reluctant
to part with any Of their hay.

THE WAR LAWS.

The overwhelming majority in both
branches of congress in favor of repeating
the wartime legislation, thereby demoboliz-
ing all the now useless and expensive gov
eminent war machinery, indicates the senti-
ment of the people on that issue, and it
is to be regretted the president did not let
the law become effective. The country wants
to be on peace basis. 1t is tired of war reg
ulations and war powers. 1t is protesting
vigorously against taxes which go to pay
the operating expenses of war organizations
and war created or war enlarged bureaus.
They have served their purpose They no
longer are needed. The extraordinary eX-
ecutive powers conferred upon the presi-
dent in times of war emergency may be-
come dangerous in times of peace At the
bottom considerable of the confusion and
uncertainty and general mental dispute
tude of the country has its source in the
top-heavy war conditions of the govern.
ment.
1t will take many years to undo many OF
the results of the war, like the initiation OF
currency, the financial burdens assumed
and the. taxes necessary to pay them. But
the legislation enacted merely to meet alb
normal war conditions can be changed with
out disturbing the future. So long as these
laws remains they will be irritants and dis
turbers of public confidence Some OF
them are ending automatically. Some OF
them have been shorn of their force by the
refusal of congress to appropriate money
for the continuation of war-enlarged Blu,
reaus But if the measure passed by con
gress had met with executive approval the
whole rehabilitation process would have
been accomplished in stroke.

QUITE A HELP FOR ONE DAY"

Banks are established for the accommo-

says the Christian Science Monthly. Fine
judgement is necessary in order to deter
mine Just where legitimate business accom-
mediation ends and the peoples interest be-
gins, especially in the light of the charge
made in the sugar inquiry in New York
to the effect that some $250,O0O,O0O had
been loaned by the banks to men engaged
in the sugar business who were using the
funds to store sugar in Cuba while the
price was being sent up in the United
States because of alleged shortage. 1t IS
not difficult to ascertain that the available
supply of sugar would increase if the banks
requested that these loans be liquidated with
expedition The result would be, of course
to release boarded supplies, thereby reduc-
ing commodity prices, providing money for
legitimate business, and lowering the rates

PETER AND PAUL .

England, through a certain publicity chan
mel, has intimated that America should can
eel and forgive the great debts several
European countries owe her. This is the
same England that was none too nice to our
soldiers who sojourned for a time on her
shores while on their way to France; the
same England that sent Hessans to kill oul
people in the war of independence. Perhaps
it is time we begin to look out little bet
ter for America, and let the Europeans set
tie their own squabbles France, too, since
the armstice has been quite bit less nice
and Italy and Russia are utterly unappre-
ciative. The whole bunch appear to want
Columbia to act the part of the fairy god
mother for them-a fairy godmother with
numberless bags of shining gold to meet
their selfish demands. Is it not about time
we quit robbing Peter of our hearts and
hearths and bestowing the rewards of our
labors upon a foreign and ungrateful Paul?

THE FARM HELP PROBLEM,

The farm help problem is no longer
theory. 1t is a condition. There Is now
only 80 per cent of the farm labor availa-
BILE at this period of the year in 1914.
There is shortage of reserve food caused
by the feeding of Europe from already de-
pleted American stores and also by the drain
which feeding a potential army of 4,OOO,OoO
men made on the annual production. 1t IS
conservative to state that the people are en-
,tering upon this food producing season WIN
less food reserves than in many years. Yet,
the number of non-producing people VINO
must be fed is increasing both naturally ana
artifcially The drift from the farm to the
city is greater than the 38 per cent OF fall
inp off in farm labor indicates, for in many
instances the change not only includes the
laborer, but his family. True, they had to
be fed while in the country, but then they
were producing as well as consuming. Now
they must be fed, but are not producing.
The reduction in the volume of farm
labor will result in decreased supply OF
food. And as the production of food. de-
creases prices to the non-producing con-
continue to soar To. meet such increases
the non-producing population will demand
higher wages, which in turn will attract still
larger numbers of laborers from the farms
and aggravate the evil by still more reduc-
ing the number producing food and increas-
ing the number consuming food These facts,
which are apparent to any one giving only
passing thought to the conditions, are more
than disturbing. They are danger signals
which ought to be needed But the former
farm laborer now employed in the city asks
why he and not the other fellow should re-
turn to the farm He wants to know why
those who give advice should not be the
first to take it. AS long as that sentiment
prevails there can be no remedy except in
a reduction of wages in the city.

WASTE AT WASHINGTON.

Walton Tribune. Newspapers are again
voicing their protest at the wanton waste
of paper by the various government de-
partments at Washington. The newspapers
of the country are up against a newspaper
famine and some of them are paying enor-
nous prices in order to keep going, while
the possibilities are that the supply will be
completely exhausted, with no opportunity
to secure it at any price. At the same
time the government departments continue
to waste tons upon tons of paper. much of
which goes into the waste baskets of the
newspapers. If the senator's and congress
men from Georgia want to do the news
papers real service they will get busy and
make a vigorous kick against this needless
and alarming waste.

The Place of Cowpeas.


The cowpea is an old favorite, but I'M
questionably in many sections it is giving
away to soy and velvet beans. Where the
seed are available it may be planted with
velvet beans in the corn, and the result is
one of the greatest feed and soil-improving
combinations we ever saw. The cowpea is
also an excellent food and will probably al
ways be planted for this reason if for no
other The cowpea's inability to produce
fair crops of peas except in favorable years
is it's chief drawback, and is the reason for
its being supplanted to a considerable ex-
tent by soy and velvet beans. The crop is
valuable one for hay, probably the best,
where soy beans and lespedeza are not
grown.
All three of the crops here mentioned
are good and at least one of them should be
planted in all our corn fields this year. Seed
seem high-priced, it is true. but feed and
plant foods are also high-priced, and these
crops are great feed and fertility producers.

The Stranger Within Our Gates.
From the Moultrie Observer.

The stranger within our gates is the sub
iect of a good editorial in the Nashville
Herald. Editor Sweat is exhorting his peo-
pie to pay more attention to strangers, and
especially those who visit Nashville during
conventions or in large parties.
The stranger and the newcomer appreci-
ate the attention shown them by the home
people. 1t has telling effect to give a warm
greeting and hearty handshake to the fell
low who is among strangers. The stranger
who is given a cordial reception IN a com
munty remembers his visit; he speaks well
of that community, and he will bear it in
mind and will always desire to repeat his
visit.
The newcomer who finds warm welcome
and disposition on the part of the people
to receive him gladly and give him place
in business, in society, in church life and IN
chamber of commerce work naturally falls
into the class of home boosters, and that
which you hand him he passes on to others.
Fortunately Moultrie has never had a
"class" of old-timers, aristocrats and town
proprietors. 1t is the democratic spirit here
that has made Moultrie an attractive place
for new corners and visitors
If YOU have become a little lax in getting
acquainted with people and mixing with
strangers and extending the glad hand to
visitors it would be a good thing for you to
timber up bit, shake off the crust and cul-
tivate the social and democratic side of
your nature. If you do not know how it is
done we have some splendid examples about
Moultrie for you to watch and initiate. And
you are always helping yourself when you
go out of your way to make stranger
feel at home in your community.
