dJapoeed to profit by tta* «-*p«-rlenc:
of the nations serosa the water
it ***nis like a prosaic matter for
dlsrusalon, but really one of th.
ft--tt-tii factors that will <nter In
to the matter Is our food supply.
We are already faced with price* af
hl/ h as It would *«-em we can po
sibly endure; with a «.ronounc«d
shortage In many lines of product, ,
and if a lame army and navy Is to
b«- recruited from our industrial
workers the situation is likely t0 b<
come serious.
It la, however, fortunate that the
crisis should come at this season of
the year, when the people can plan
to meet the situation. The farm-
Inn season ir Just opening, and every
man, woman and child In the Unit-
ed Htates should be brought to feel
that on his or her shoulders rests i
very tangible portion of the respons-
ibility that faces the nation.
Our people must be fed. In an
ordinary year this matter would
automatically take care of itself
Hut not so In this Instance. Aside
from the fact that thousand* an'l
housands will be drawn from tin-
ranks of the workers, we will hav?
also to reckon with the restlessness
and cxcltmont that will Inevitably
prevail throughout the country. Thi
is not conducive to successful work
What our people must realize Is
that no calamity can lie allowed to
touch us (is h whole. An army may
be mobilized, and the navy strength
ened, but affairs will niove along in
the same grooves In all lines of In
tlustry. Hence, with the Increased
demand for food supplies that is
sure to come, the first thought ol
all the people should bo to yet, thai
every available foot of tillaole soli
Is made to produce a crop.
And this shoud not only apply to
farmers. Millions of people In the
cities and towns can contribut-j
largely to the result. Unused back
yards, vacant lots, fallow fields, even
railroad rights of way can be mad
to add their quota. Kvery dweller
in a city o rtown who can toy any
means secure a plot of ground
should do so nnd devote a portion of
his or. her time this season to pro
duclng something to eat. None
should evade this duty, for a duty
It Is.
Iyet none delude themselves with
the belief that there will be any ma-
terial lowering of the prices of food-
stuffs unless there is an increase in
production. The demand 1b too great
There are yawning markets the
world over for every bushel of
wheat, corn, potatoes, or any other
article of food that we can produce,
nnd even should we escape a Ioiik
war, at least as long ns the conflict
continues In Europe that demand
will be urgent.
We can, we should, we must make
of ourselves that which we glory in
proclaiming—a nation of farmers.

ways and learn from them." This is
good advice, especially when bilious

results, and will do well to follow
their example. Adv

Nature Turps, The Doctor Take* the
Fee.
There is an old saying that "Na-

but as everyone knows you can help
Nature very much and thereby en-
able it to effect a cure in much less
time than is usually required. This
is particularly true of colds. Cham-

lungs, liquifies the tough mucus and
aids in its experctoration, allays the
cough and aids Nature in restoring
the system to a healthy condition.
