Poor Welcome Robin! 1t had been
very lonesome there in the cedar
swamp, living alone, as he did. But
there were plenty of cedar berries
and, though he grew very, very tired
Of them, they kept him in good con-
clifton. And he didn't mind the cold
weather as much as he had thought
he would. You see, it was compare
lively warm in the cedar swamp and
no could keep we'll sheltered. But
when the Ice storm came 1t was the
most terrible experience Welcome
Robin ever had had. He had crept
into the snuggest shelter he could
md and hadn't once left it while the
storm lasted. Never had he felt so
forlorn and almost hopeIess.
when at last the sun came out Well

Chilblains.

Persons with feeble circulation are
subject to chilblains. And, barring
exceptional instances of organic dis
ease, feeble circulation is attributable
usually to the habit Of coddling
(wearing more clothing than comfort
requires and relying upon excessive
artificial warmth to keep the BODY
warm) or neglect OF regular daily ex-
erctse, or both of these sins combined.
In little ones the trouble Is cnieny
coddling; in older persons 1t is chiefly
lazziness and the low cost of hivver-
ing. Occasionally chilblain occurs
when the victim Is neither laZy nor
coddled, but either subject 70 some

favor chilblain and should never be

cAPPER KNOWS 1T

Senator Arthur Capper, Kansas
farmer, who, if anyone, should know
the facts about the farmer says that
transportation is the greatest problem
the United States has to solve. The
Senator not only says it, but proves
it in few words. He says:
In Kansas today the farmer has to
pay % cents bushel for shipping his
wheat to Chicago. He gets about
slips for it there, allowing him some
thing like 80 cents bushel for wheat
which really means a loss of aobut
40 cents on every bushel grown and
sold at that rate. The railroads,
meantime are getting twice as much
for freight as they did five years ago
when the farmer was selling his
wheat for $226.
Today the situation is 10 cent bread
or higher for the consumer, while
the farmer, the producer, gets but
80 cents for the wheat which costs
him not less than $1.20 to grow. The
same situation prevails, of course, in
the beef industry. The railroads get
high freight rates, while the grower
gets a minimum
The people of this country are be
ing brought to see that basically, if
this country is to enjoy stable pros
perity the condition of the farmer
must he better than it now is. There

is no getting away from the age old
truth that AS for the earth, out of it
cometh forth bread
When every trunk line railroad is
paralleled by a broad, smooth, we'll
graded national highway, strong
enough to support trucks OF five or
even ten ton capacity, the railroads
will not get 20 cents bushel to take
wheat from Kansas to Chicago!
The transportation problem neither
begins nor ends with railroads. The
highways problem daily becomes more
and more vital The making of auto
mobiles is today larger industry
than the running ofArailroads; making
of roads for automobiles and trucks
is inevitably to become the greatesc
single industry of the country When
it has been SO long enough to provide
three hundred thousand miles of high
grade roads (about the railroad mile
age of the Nation) there will no long
er be an acute transportation problem

MORE WAR EXPLOSIVES

Millions of pounds of sodatol, the
cheapest war salvaged explosive yet
announced, are available for land
clearing purposes in the state.
Officials. of the land clearing Sec
ton of the Wisconsin College of
Agriculture, who have been working
for months with representatives of the
United States Bureau of Public Roads
to perfect this new explosive on the
market for Wisconsin farmers.
This new explosive is being used
to replace picric acid, another war sal
vaged explosive, the supply of which
was exhausted last spring. Present in
dications are that over 100000
pounds of sodatol will find its way
into the hands of farmers in the state
before winter sets in. 1t is predicted
that farmers in the state will effect a
saving of over quarter Of million
dollars as result of the discovery
of this new cheap explosive which is
even cheaper than picric acid which
effected great saving to the farmers
of the state.
Officials of the state experiment
station report that sodatol is a mix
ture of T. N t. and sodium nitrate
properly dried, ground, mixed, and
cartridged. 1t does not produce the
headaches which handicap the use Of
some ordinary explosives. 1t is entire
ly safe and disable, having no poison
t Gus effects nor does it stain the hands
Freezing does not effect this mixture
and it gives excellent results at ordi-
nary temperatures.
