A town always prospers best when
the people are all united to help one
another. When merchants are willing
to live and let live; when every busi
ness man shows his faith in the city
or town in which he lives by sticking
to and helping all in his power every
legetimate enterprise in his town and
following the invariable rule of get
ting everything at home, even though
he can temporarily do better else
where. There is the greatest possible
strength in union of sentiment and
union of action. If there are any
circumstances in the world where
reciprocity is valuable it is at home.
The merchant is dependent upon the
farmer; the farmer upon th<* mer
chant and the mechanic. There is
no such thing as success without co
i operation, and where this exists there
is the greatest prosperity.

After his discharge from the army
an ex-soldier is said to have written
this note to his colonel.
“Sir—After what I have suffered
it gives me much pleasure to tell you
and the army to go to hell.”
In due time he received the fol
lowing.
“Sir—Any suggestion or inquiries as
to the movement of troops must be
entered on Army Form 213, a copy
of which I enclose.”

THE AMERICAN LEGION AND
POLITICS
(Continued from front page)
clearly understood and settled, the
period when the Grand Army direct
ed the affairs of the country may
fairly be called its golden age. The
men of the south who served the
Confederate army contributed much
to the government of the country, al
though they were pretty steadily in
the minority. Names of Confederate
generals almost by the score might
be mentioned who appeared in prom
inent places in Washington, and the
quality of their work was on a par
with that of the men in the north
who had fought for the union.
The American Legion does not in
clude nearly so large a percentage of
the population of the country today
as after the Civil War was formed by
the men who had w'orn either the blue
or the gray. But there are millions
of them scattered all over the coun
try—enough to leaven the whole mass
and they can make thier influence
felt in the govenment of every ham
let and state in the union, and of the
nation as well. They are destined to
become a tremendous force in poli
tics. Many of the leaders are certain
to be taken from their ranks. When
we say that the American Legion
should keep out of party politics, we
mean that the organization, if it is to
maintain itself with the best kind of
influence it is capable of exerting,
should not permit itself to be used by
any party or candidate. But the
members themselves will inevitably
go into politics and would not per
form their duty if they failed to do
ao.
In America it may be taken for
granted that the favor with which
the people look upon soldier candi
dates will not disappear and that
they will be found in the chairs of
the chief executives of state, in the
cabinet, and even the presidency. But
the country has a right to demand
that their advancement shall not come
about from any league or order of
military men but from the free
choice of the people, and that they
shall be selected on account of their
fitness out of the great mass of our
population. To convert the Legion
into a league to capture the spoils of
office w'ould be a public calamity,
for it would quickly destroy its influ
ence and make a mockery of its
noble war cry “for God and country.”

MOKE POULTRY SHOULD BE
RAISED ON EVERY FARM
It has been estimated by the Unit
ed States government that the poul
try products are worth annually
about $0,000,000. Ninety per cent of
this poultry is raised on the Ameri
can farm. To the average farmer
the small amount of money that
comes from poultry may seem a
mall item, but in all it amounts to
a tremendous amount of money. It
cost only $3,000,000 to build the Pan
ama Canal. The poultry products of
one year will build two canals. The
United States has spent a tremen
dous amount of money for the big
and wasteful war. It k time to pay
this now, and Madam Hen can help
to pay off this enormous cost pro
vided she is given a proper chance.
The farm poultry is a profitable
business. Farm hens are waste con
sumers and the cost of feed is nor
more than half as much as that of
hens kept under confinement.
The average farm hen is laying
CO eggs a year. This does not mean
that she would not lay more eggs
under the right environment or prop
er feeding. This average can be easi
ly raised if proper methods are used.
A great many flocks are now being
raised that will produce from 140 to
ICO.
