Entered at the postoffice at Cordell as second class matter.

OWNER AND EDITOR
The director of the mint is urging the coining of two1
and a half cent pieces.^But what could you buy with one
of the blamed things anyway?
0O0
A Fort Wayne man hurled a coffee cup at his wife be-!
cause she couldn't find work. Well, considering the "un-j
precedented demand for labor" the administration news-;
papers are harping about, it was rather provoking.
0O0
Men's white collars now sell for fifteen cents straight
instead of two for twenty-five cents as formerly. This is
because the men in the European trenches are now wear-
ing so many more white collars than they did before the
war.
0O0
What has become of the old fashioned donation par-
ty at'which members of the congregation used to present
the pastor and his family with real potatoes, beans and
canned fruit? Most any preacher would be glad to take
one now in lieu of salary.
0O0 *
"He kept us out of war" was one of the slogans in
the recent campaign and is given credit for doing much
towards winning. "He kept us out of booze" might be a I
winning slogan for a prohibitionist candidate, should
there be one who could use it honestly.
0O0
All sorts of plans have been prepared for the high |
cost of living. They include an embargo, government,
control of prices, seizure of cold storage plants etc. Prob-
ably the plan adopted will be the appointment of a high
salaried commission to investigate the matter arijd report
after the trouble has subsided.
0O0
Billy Bryan is shoving himself into the limelight
with a view of dimming things democratically to
such an extent that none other than he, thfe Sage of Lin-
coln, can be seen. Hope he gets there, as if we are going
to have a democratic president we would rather it be
Bryan than any other we can recall at this time.

There seems to be considerable dissatisfation on the j
part of the soldier boys on the border, and it is the uni-'
' versal sentiment that if they get out of this enlistment
they will never get caught again. General Scott in his!
annual report condemns the volunteer system as being
wrong and unjust and recommends that military service j
be compulsory, and this opinion is shared by many of our:
statesmen and it would not be surprising if some measure |
to this end would be introduced during this session of con-
gress It would not be in keeping with that cowardly
sentiment "he kept us out of war," but as there is no cam-
paign on it does not matter much.
0O0
The railroads are laying their emphasis on the neces.
sitv for federal regulation if they are to prosper and to
furnish the desired extensions and betterments which their
properties require. It will be interesting to see how the
members of congress will divide on this question if it ever
reaches them in concrete form. The Republican platform
of 1916 is explicit in declaring for federal ragulation. It
was the most pronounced step in advance which that plat-
form took. Yet it was scarcely commented upon during
the campaign. Newspapers and orators said nothing
about it The candidates gave it scant attention-vet,
he?e in less than a month from the election, the question
is upon congress in a very active form.
0O0
The high cost of living is becoming a serious question
and one which does not fit in very well with the claims of
prosperity that are now beingraade. Bank deposits show
that this country is the most prosperous spot on the globe
but if this be true why this protest against the high cost
of livine:7 Eggs are selling in Cordell now at top prices,
but who is benefitted? The farmer who sells the eggs
from which he receives his prosperity Were it not for
the high prices he receives for his produce the bank de-
posits would not be of the magmficant proportions^
are Take for instance the deposits ,of the Korn
' State Rank made up of farm deposits, and the increase
at this thne over what it was last year at the same time.
The fanner is now having his inning, the first time since
man c^remember, then why attempt to boycott his pro-
man can rem , ^ A proSperous country is
one where all are prosperous and that kind of prosperity
^ not measured by bank deposits.

The New. Church Building
We have been somewhat delay-
ed in starting work on the church
building, due to the fact that ev-
eryone has been busy gatlitfriny
their crops''and getting ready for
tlte cold weather. When the old
church burned down we were con-
siderably discouraged as it seem-
ed quite a task to rebuild so soon
after the other building btul been
completed but we received so
much encouragement iroiu the en-
tire community that it whs rlee.id-
;•(! to build again. We certainly
appreciate the financial nsvsiwK-e
given us by tlu: good pco|il" *>•'
Cloud Chief and especially do we
appreciate the oficriug by Hie
Methodist Sunday schook
The lumbar is now on the
ground and work 011 the building
will be started at once. It is our
[desire to rush the work as rapidly
las possible so as to complete it
I before the extreme cold weather
arrives. We are somewhat, handi-
capped financially and will not
be able to hire all the work done
so will require considerable dona-
tion in order to complete it. If
you feel that you can donate one.
two or a dozen days just bring
vour hammer and come, a job is
guaranteed. Don t feel slighted if
you are not asked as your assist - |
wim'c will be appreciated and wc
will not get mad if you work ev-
|cry day.

Feeding the Mother Cow.
Experiments have shown that |
if a mother cow is not proper'y ^
fed, parts of her body will chance
so as to supply milk for her calf.
In time this weakens the cow
^Srcirof^eed this winter MasVngale & Duff
will tempt owners of cattle to *f^n(.vS.flt.
keep the cows on short rations,
or upon rations not suitable for
building up the animal body.
Several stock men have pre-
dic.ed that many cows wculd be
lost at calving time next spring,
and that next year's calf crop
would be light on account of the
present shortage of feed.
The mother cow should be fed
a ration rich in protein until two
weeks before calving. Then the
feed should be changed to a light-
er ration containing cooling feed
like wheat bran.
Study the needs of the cow,
and see if it pays to respect mot h-
erhood. J. D. Payne.
