Between the Upper and Neither MiIlStoneS

Waste is the enemy of civilization. During the re- cent great the American people for the first time since early colonial days felt the pinch of stringent cir cumstances and learned to save, to The well
 filled bread can was more carefully scrutinzed not for fear of actual hunger to themselves but lest by nadver tance they waste precious of food which might otherwise have been used succor starving millions far across the seas.
 This a saiutary lesson to young and prodigal nation, arrogant in it's seemingly boundless But it would that the lesson has not gone deep enough We are face to face with nsidous evil in body polite. The evidences of it may be found in the columns of any large newspaper
 The condition of affairs which will permit the farmer to receive three cents for bushe of apples and yet init their retailing for several dollars works in vicious circle. No put his finger the exact of the condton what thing alone is to bameit arises not from but many, confusing and conflicting elements enter into its complexty.
 But both the farmer and the ultimate consumer would hail with ringing savos of delight the statesman who would cut the Gordian Knot and set them free. They ground between the upper and neither mill stone of commerce and are ''ground exceedingly small"
 This is subject that if given the proper attention by statesman would meet with the highest appreciation This is problem of wastage. Nourishing foods are allowed to the ground since their sale would not bring enough to pay for the labor involved Thousands both in this country and abroad lack for the cessty of daily bread What the to this heart breaking condition? We do not know--do you?

Crow Guides Lost Man.

Stroudsburg, Pa.-The growing of a rooster saved the life of William War. her, who became lost in a cranberry swamp near Tannersville. Warner wandered for long time, and finally was caught h the soft, boggy land up to his waist. After he succeeded in dragging himself out and got onto firmer land, he was so tired and weary that he realized that he might again be mired. Hardly daring to move he heard the rooster crow, and followed the sound until he reached a farm house.

FARMERS WILL GET
FREE DISTRIBUTION
OF WAR EXPLOSIVES
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.-The atten-
tons of farmers in all sections of the
country to the free distribution of ex-
cess war explosives for farm work, is
called by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. Since last fall
the department., in cooperation with
the various state agricultural colleges,
has distributed 8 100000 pounds Of pic
rlc acid, a surplus explosive, which IS
very efficient, easy and safe TO handle.
In Minnesota the state agricultural
college reports:
I'VE feel that picric acid has been
great benefit to the state and has done
great deal to stimulate land clearing.
All reports are to the effect that its use
has been highly satisfactory. The 774,-
600 pounds allotted to Minnesota were
distributed to 3,511 farmers, averas-
ing 222 pounds per farmer. We esti-
mate that this will clear $4,000 acres
of land, and has made saving OF
ever $4,000 for the farmers of the
state"
The economy of this explosive is en-
phasized by the department in a re-
cent circular showing that last falls
distribution saved the farmers about
$4,000 over the cost of other explo-
siyes. There are now available some
6,000 600 pounds of picric acid, and of
this amount about 1,500. 1000 are avail
able to each of the lake states, Mich
igan, Wisconsin and Minnesota.
Picric acid is high explosive which
was used in large quantities during the
war and is now being distributed to
farmers for agricultural purposes, says
the department. No charge is made by
the government for the explosive it.
self. but as it has to be dried out and
cartridged before it can be used for
peaceful uses the cost of this work
must be paid by the farmers.
Picric acid is comparatively safe
explosive and is used in the same way
that other agricultural explosives are
used 1t has several advantages over
commercial explosives in that it keeps
indefinitely without deteriorating, it
is not affected by heat or cold, and it
does not cause headaches or other i'll
effects when used in the open air.
Because of its creates cost of manu-
facture, it will never fe a competitor
of commercial dynamites 1t is being
distributed for the purpose of increas-
ing interest and activity in land clear
ing The details of the method of dis
trihution may be secured from the
various state agricultural colleges.
