THE EOOD PROBLEM.
In the great crisis which now
confronts our country, no more sig
nal service can be rendered than
by the farmers of the country in a
united and earnest effort to raise
enough food products for the
United Stated and her allies, says
B. F. Bush, Receiver of the Mis
souri-Pacific-Iron Mountain Ry.,
and member of National Defense
committee. This is equally as im
portant as recruiting a large army
or manning a more extensive navy.
It is as true now as when Marcus
Cato proclaimed to the Romans
that you cannot “Make speeches to
the belly, which has no ears,” for
the stomach cannot be filled with
fair words.
The nation, i.n'time of war, is en
titled from every man, rich or poor,
to such service as may be required,
subject to the limitations imposed
by age or sickness.
With a reported slump of more
than fifty million bushels of winter
wheat, as compared to last year's
crop, as recently reported by the
government, our country is brought
face to face with the first serious
war feeding problem.
To meet the increased demands
for food products, caused by the
war, additional preparations would
be necessary were it not for the
present decrease in the wheat
crop, but, on account of such de
crease, the question of supplying
the food necessary for the fighting
men presents a serious problem
which the farmers of our country
must help to solve.
The present war and natural
conditions have resulted in a scarc
ity of food products throughout the
whole world, and regardless of the
increased remuneration which this
condition guarantees for such prod
ucts, it is apparent that every
farmer should bend every effort to
increase the acreage and yield of
all kinds of food stuffs by obtaining
the necessary feed, labor and im
plements to do so.
The large army of able-bodied
men, too old to fight, can do their
part by preparations to help feed
the men who figbi.
In addition tb,e crops of corn and
wheat, thousands of acres of navy
beans and similar crops that have
the maxirr ,um amount of nutrition
to the h undred pounds should be
raised. All kinds of food stuffs
that c\in be profitably canned or
dried or prepared for ocean trans
portation should be prepared in or
de r that our soldiers and those of
fcur allies can be provided with a
varied and wholesome diet.
The transportation lines of the
country are adapting every availa
ble revenue and every possible
means to be prepared to serve the
country and general public as
transporation agencies, and, the
men in the agricultural depart- ■
ments of the Missouri Pacific and
Iron Mountain Railways will co
operate with tiie farmers, both in
dividually and through their organ
izations, in an effort to assist in
bringing about an increase in the
yield of the lands of this section.
Don't forget that next week is
Clean-Up week. Let everybody
do their part.

Children Like It
’* You know it is not an easy matter to
get children to take medicine, and forcing
• . .1 i 1st i Granny Chamberlain
it on them does no good. Most mothers
know that a cough medicine, while palatable, should contain no
drug injurious to the child.
The great popularity of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is ex
plained by the fact that it contains no opium or narcotic of any
kind, and at the same time is so pleasant and agreeable to the
taste that children like
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
For this reason alone it is a favorite with the mothers of young
children.”

cess.” and he handled the subject,
in a manner that held the large

its delivery.
The class was composed of

The My is the Tie That Binds the
Inheallhy to the Healthy.
The fly has no equal 'as a germ
carrier: as many as five hundred
million germs have been found in
and on the body of a single fly.
It is definitely known that the fly
is the carrier of the germs of ty
phoid fever; it is widely believed
that it is also the carrier of other
diseases, including possibly infan
tile paralysis.
The very presence of a fly is a
signal and notification that a house
keeper is uncleanly and inefficient.
Do not wait until the insects be
gins to pester; anticipate th* an
noyance.
April. May and June are the best
months to conduct an anti-fly
campaign.
The farming and suburban dis
tricts provide ideal breeding places
and the new born flies do not re
main at their birth place but mi
grate, using railroads and other
means of transportation, to towns
and cities.
Kill flies and save lives!

Rubber Boots, Pocket Size.
A pair of rubber boots so light that
they may he rolled up aud carried in
tin1 pocket is principally designed for
the use of amateur fishermen, says the
Scientific American. For wading
through streams they are worn over
the leather shoes, ulTording all the pro
tection of the heavy boots without the
inconvenience of the latter while on
the way to and from the fishiug
ground. The boots are made of pure
gum, fashion lined and have an eles
tlc top, thus fitting tightly around the
leg.
World's Model Mountain.
Mount Shasta, according to an In
dian legend, was tlie first mountain
made by the Creator as his master
l>ieoe, and with this as a model he de
signed the other mountains of the
world, says the National Geographic
Magazine. The ascent of Shasta is
difficult, b'lt with competent guides b
not perilous. With the lltfle town of
Sisson as a base, there is a good
horseback trail to Timberline camp,
an overnight rest six miles away.
Starting from this camp very early
tlie next morning, the experienced
mountaineer can make the ascent and
return to Sisson in a day. 4*
