FUTURE WAR OR PRESENT
LIMITATION OF ARMAMENT?
Sentiment for Latter to be Crystal
iized by Citizens

The peoples of earth are weary Of
war. They want reduction IN arma.
ment to the point Of well organized
and orderly conducted national and
international police forces. The hour
has struck for obtaining this much
TO be desired end. With the opening
OF the International Conference on
the limitation Of armament in the
capitol of our country the eleventh
OF November next, peace-loving Amer.
lean citizens have the greatest oppor.
tunity of their lives to secure the
answer to their prayers and obtain
the realization Of their hopes. If they
will but crystalline and focalize at
Washington the disarmament senti.
ment Of the country to support our
statesmen while they lead in the dis,
cussion for this great object. there
can scarcely be any failure of re.
suits.
To this end the National Reform
Association - which for fifty years
and more has been advocating that
the principles of the Prince of Peace.
SO generally accepted as applicable
In the dealings of individuals one
with the other, are likewise applicable
In the dealings of nations each with
the other-has called Convocation
10 be held in Washington. D. c., Oc-
tober 30-November O. 1921, to be adj
dressed by representative men and
women active in the civil and politi-
val life OF our beloved land.
Having organized and successfully
conducted three great Worlds Chris
,ian Citizenship Conferences at the
last of which in 1919 forty-one differ
emit countries were represented by
the presence and participation of cit
liens or subjects Of each. and at
which action was taken looking
toward world disarmament, the Ma
tional Reform Association seems to
be the logical organization to take
the lead in calling such gathering.
its general superintendent, DR.. James
8. Martin, Is recognized as genius
In building programs and as a safe
and sane leader.
This Convocation. while not eccle-
siastical. has the endorsement of
many church courts and while not
political in any wise, its purpose has
the endorsement of leading states
men. Delegates to it are being ap
pointed by the churches and other or
CARNATIONS throughout the country
and many distinguished men and
women will be present, not as repre-
sentatives of any special organiza-
tions. but as lovers of peace and as
thus giving expression to their ap.
prevail of the action Of the President
in calling conference of the powers
in behalf of the limitation of arma-
ment.

Feeding Bottle Babies.
Drinking Water.-Boil pint OF
water every morning and put in a
clean bottle. Keep in a cool place.
Offer the baby plenty Of water be-
tween feelings, beginning with one
half ounce twice a day during the
first few. days after BIRTH. The
quantity should be gradually in
creased until the infant is taking
from 5 to 6 ounces of water daily.
It must be remembered that the
infant cannot ask for water and
that he is apt to get thirsty more
often during the summer months
than in winter.
Barley Water.-After baby is six
months old, barley water may be
used to dilute milk instead Of plain
water. Add one-half level table,
spoonful of barley -four to one pint
of water and cook for twenty min
utes. AS it boils keep adding
enough water to make one pint,
strain and cool. At nine months
liz tablespoonfuls of barley may
be used, cook in ounces of water.
Orange Juice.-Not later than
one month after being put ON the
bottle or at any time from three
months Of age up the infant should
be given orange Juice. beginning
with one tablespoonful mixed with
equal quantity of cooled boiled
water and gradually increasing the
quantity to two or three tablespoon
fuls. The best time to give orange

morning. Strained tomato juice
may be given in like proportion
when Oranges are not available.
The use of these juices will prevent
scurvy.
Other Foods.-At six months the
baby is beginning to be. able to d.
gest starch; therefore at this time
small amounts of barley or oatmeal
water may be given with milk.
When the teeth begin to appear,
a cracker or piece Of zwieback
may be allowed. In addition to
this a little cereal jelly without
sugar may be given ooce day, pre-
ferably in the morning.
At nine months a baby may be
given half cup Of plain bouilon, or
beef or chicken broth, or vegetable
soup once daily. He should have q
small piece of crisp toast, swieback
or crust of bread on which to chew
Immediately after feeding.

What's S New
On
The NJ arket

Strawberries dropped again in
retail price this morning in stores
buying direct from the producer.
They can be bought for 10 tents
a box, but there are some places
which are still holding them for
as high as Is cents for the very
best.
Butter will rise soon. The heavy
production season is about over
and in larger centers a one cent
advance in wholesale price was
announced late yesterday after
noon to take effect this morning.
The increase will probably not
affect the retail price here for a
day or two, but it is almost GER
tain to later.
A radical change in the price
of lemons took place this morn
ing. 1t jumped from, % cents a
dozen to 35. There are some stores,
however, which will maintain
the former price for the next day
or two.
Bulk dates sell all the way
from 25 cents to 40 cents a
pound. This price seems a little
high for there has been a 20 per
cent reduction on the wholesale
price within the last few days.
Muscatel raisins with seeds have
dropped in some stores to 25
cents pound, but the general
price is 80 cents.
In spite of the new tariff bin
just signed by the president, su-
gar is not expected to rise the
full 65 cents per sack as predict
ed recently. The price will rise,
but 1t is said that the refineries
have found some way to absorb
most Of the.increase.
