Professor Henry says that a cow requires three-quarters of an ounce per day of milk. lbs. of weight and six-tenths of an ounce per day per 20 lbs. milk. Therefore, the cow which weighs 1200 lbs. and gives 30 lbs. milk should have 1.8 ounce salt. It must be remembered, however, that salt is generally included in high-grade dairy feeds: It is well to give cows access to extra salt. They will take what their roughage demands.

Feed is handled on a smaller margin than coal, ton for ton. The feed dealer who buys in carload lots can sell as cheap as the manufacturer in less-than-carload lots, the difference in freight rates being the dealer's gross profit. In nearly every instance, a group of farmers can order their feed, through a dealer, in carloads and make a material saving. The difference in freight alone will show a good profit.

Terauchi Says War Binds America and Japan.
RELATIONS NOT ENDANGERED.
Baron Goto Says He Hope Nations Will Find Principles on Which to Base Abiding Relations of Mutual Trust and Confidence—Greetings Cabled to President Wilson.
Tokyo, Goto—"By the participation of the United States in the war our countries are strengthened," declared Premier Terauchi at the first dinner of the recently formed American-Japanese society.
He had just asserted that never in the history of their intercourse have the two countries come to such a pass as to endanger cordial relationship, and he went on to say, "We are on the eve of joining our resources in chasing a common and obdurate foe in the cause of world peace. The friendly relations of the two countries should

be cemented more strongly than ever by the combined efforts of both governments and peoples."
Among the 300 members present were many of the most prominent men in Japanese public life. Viscount Kakao, ex-minister of justice, presided and the principal speech was made by Baron Goto, ex-minister of communications.
Baron Goto said: "There are few questions of such vital moment to the welfare of mankind as the relations of Japan and the United States. The era of the Pacific promises to surpass that of the Mediterranean or the Atlantic. All the forces of the east and west will meet. Will they unite or clash? I believe it lies in the power of the United States and Japan to answer that question, on which the future happiness and progress of the world will depend. For this reason the relations between Japan and the United States are supreme importance. "With the awful responsibility that they owe to mankind, will Japan and the United States work hand in hand or will they turn their backs on each? I hope the two nations will find principles on which to base abiding relations of mutual trust and confidence."
Other speakers were Prince Tokugawa, president of the house of peers; Count Okuma, ex-premier; Baron Shibusawa, chairman of the Tokyo Bankers' association; Post Wheeler, who is United States charge d'affaires at Tokyo; George H. Scidmore, United States consul general at Yokohama. After the dinner greetings were cabled to President Wilson.

Music Box Tells Autoist When They Reach High Speed.
Taylor, S. C. — Green D. Poole, a clerk in the Southern railway depot, claims to have invented a device which is intended to prevent accidents to automobiles. The working of the attachment is simple and is explained by Poole as follows: "While the car is running fifteen miles and a hour a white bulb shows on the radio, a brown-drava bulb a green bulb appears, at forty a minute when the driver begins to bat 'em out around sixty per a music box under the seat begins to play 'Nearer My God to Thee.'"

DOUBLE DUTY
A Dairy Ration Has Two Main Uses—
Life and Product.
**National Gap Improvement Service.1**
A ration is divided into two parts:
1. the part needed to maintain or keep the animal alive.
2. the part needed to make stored up material like wool, fat, meat, or milk.
Milk is roughly in solids, one-third each casein (protein), fat and sugar. The casein in milk can only be furnished by the protein in the food. The fat and sugar may be derived from either protein, fat or carbohydrates.
If a cow has the ability to give 50 pounds of milk containing two pounds of casein, and only gets enough protein to make one pound of casein, then she will only give 25 pounds of milk.
A balanced ration is one that has just the exact amount of protein, fat and carbohydrates that the cow needs. Just when we give cannot ever say exactly, because the amounts vary from week to week and no two cows are alike, nor are feeds alike.
A practical ration is one that has sufficient protein and enough total food to make the greatest amount of milk without the cow losing weight.
A commercially successful ration is the one that makes the most milk or profit, keeps the cow healthy and enables the use of the most roughage.
All the hay and ensilage .cow can will keep her alive and make about 15 pounds of milk. Any more milk has to come from grain or grain feed.
The farm can usually raise carbohydrates cheap in the form of hay and ensilage, and, outside of ocler, peas, etc., protein can usually be bought cheaper than it can be raised.
The average price of protein feeds with 20 per cent digestible protein was about $25 to $35 per ton before the war, but the prices are much then now, while hay (elver) with 5% protein has been rated at $10 per ton. The protein feed at $40 would furnish the same as the clover at $10.
DIFFERENT COWS, DIFFERENT FEEDS
[National Croop Improvement Service]
No suggestions that we can offer nor can any other formula that can be made can be used to the letter as a druggist follows the prescriptive advice of a physician. Feeds vary in their nutritive values, some being better than the average and some not as good, and cows vary in their ability to digest and transform nutriment. These conditions make it necessary for the feeder to use a good deal of judgment to use the animals, the suggestions of others. Any good diet is recommended as a base, to be supplemented by home-grown roughage.
CONCENTRATES FOR RATIONS
Taken From an Article by E. S. Savage, Professor of Animal Husbandry, New York College of Agriculture.
[National Corp Impersonation Service.]
A good rule to follow in all rations is to have at least three plants represented in the ration. There are seven factors which should be considered: (1) Bulk, (2) Digestibility, (3) Relation between the digestible protein and carbohydrates and fat, (4) Variability, (5) Suitability of the feeds to the animal and product, (6) Palatability, (7) Cost.
As an example, choosing the cheapest feeds relatively, considering manure values, suitability and all, we would recommend the following mixture of grains as suitable for dairy cows at present prices:
600 pounds distillers dried grains.
600 pounds wheat bran or brewers dried grains.
600 pounds hominy feed.
600 pounds cottonseed or oil meal.
SALT FOR CATTLE.
THE PRICE OF FEED.
Take the chill off the drinking water in cold weather and cows will drink more and produce more.
Don't figure too fine on rations, Be liberal but don't overfeed. You can kill all of your profit by feeding more than the cow can assimilate.
[National Crop Improvement Service.]
The human element in dairy feed is important. Two men may have the same equipment, one make good money, the other fall, both are supposed to be feeding by the same system and the same tables.
Horse sense is good cow sense.
THE APPEAL MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY
THE AVERAGE REFORMER.
(National Crop Improvement Service.)
The average reformer having so little at stake himself, plunges about like a bull in a china shop, regardless of the results of his ardor.
An amusing incident is told of the Secretary of Commerce. The can manufacturers put up a howl that unless they could get tin-plate to make up, no canning of fruits and vegetables could be done, so without looking over the field it is said that an order was made that steel was to be diverted by the manufacturers from other projects and put at the disposal of the can manufacturers. It looked all right on the face of it, but when the manufacturers of harvesting machinery demanded steel which they contracted for, and found that there was not steel for aprons, it having been diverted to cans, a hurry-up call modifying the order was issued, so that our harvesting machines could be made in time for the growing crop.
This illustrates how many plans are ignorantly made robbing Peter to Paul. Every enthusiast who has yet get reform which is always hitting some other business instead of his own, never looks around to see what the effect will be before he plunges. The manufacturers of feed and the most successful feeders in the country have a right to demand that that delicate machine—the dairy cow—shall not be wrecked by hasty legislation.
MAY HARVEST FISH
Secretary Redfield Holds Out New Cheap Living Hope.
FARMERS TO PLANT PONDS.
Predicted That Within Few Years Tillers of the Land Will Be Counting on the Fish Crop Just as Now They Count on Wheat, Corn and Other Products.
Washington—In a communication to the house of the representatives asking for a new building for the bureau of fisheries Secretary Redfield of the department of commerce makes several interesting suggestions, and one of them is that within a few years farmers will be counting on their fish crop, just as now they count on wheat, corn and the other regular products of agriculture. The idea of planting and harvesting sunfish, perch, fresh water mackerel, shad, eels and carp is probably a strange one to the average city man, who has little practical knowledge of farming, but Secretary Redfield of the department of agriculture.
THE EEST DAIRY FEED
Made From Grain From Which the Human Food Values Have Been Taken.
By Prof. F. D. Fuller.
(National Crop Improvement Service.)
The reason why the best dairy feeds are less expensive than the same grains on the farm because the principal elements of human food are taken from these grains before they are ever made into feed. The by-products of cereal mills, glucose factories, malt houses, etc., constitute often more than 50 per cent of the total bulk of mixed dairy feeds of the better class.
These oats, barley and corn by-products are considered by experts in animal nutrition as very valuable feed materials. After these cereals are ground in the manufacture of alcohol, for which the use is growing more important daily in the arts, the solid residue is dried in vacuum, and is then known as "dried grains." If made from corn, these grains contain on an average of 30 per cent crude protein and 10 per cent crude fat. If made from rye, while valuable, they are of somewhat lower feed value. The barley residue contains on per cent more crude protein than wheat bran and twice as much crude fat. In fact, their food value is largely increased by the process.
All these products are widely used.
Revolutionary reforms are sedum efficacious. Anything which disturbs the food equilibrium should be handled gradually. Experience has shown that the most efficient way to remove the human food fire and feed the residue to stock. Any other system is sheer extravagance.
WRONG FEEDING METHODS.
There is an old story about a ship captain who had medicine that sailor was sick and he found that No. 47 in his book was the indicated remedy, but alas! the bottle of No. 47 was empty, so he took equal parts of No. 40, which was strychnine; and No. 7, which was carolic acid, and added them together and made No. 47—and the sailor died.
The application of this old story is that many a feeder will think that if a little of cottonseed, or oilseed meal is good, a whole lot will be better. And, like the man who put the green spectacles on the horse and fed him shaving it, just after he got him trained, the man is human nature to experiment in feeds, and the poor cow has to suffer for an overdose or an underdose before the proper ration is established.
DIFFICULT TO MIX FEEDS
A More Scientific Result Can Be Produced By Machinery.
[National Corp Improvement Services.]
As no two lots run alike, it is very difficult to mix straight by-products of oats, barley, rye, corn, cottonseed, flaxseed, etc., by measure, because it is purely guessing. Only a few years ago intentional fraud or unintentional carelessness was the rule. Before the law feeds were passed, each manufacturer adulterated all the trade would stand.
Every car of feed sold to the consumer is not analyzed, and the farmer cannot become a feed expert because he has no laboratory. Not one car out of five hundred is officially inspected. In the old days country milers were throwing feeds together with no knowledge of feed and were ruining valuable cows and making the farmer poorer. In those days the feed tables were wrong, the feeds didn't in the tables; the digestible analysis method was incorrect; feed standards for animals were not agreed upon nor the animals didn't fit the standards; the buyer didn't know what was in the feeds he bought to mix; and there was an unavoidable variation in the concentration of the feed.
These conditions have been largely overcome through the joint action of the government and state experiment stations and the mixed seed manufacturers who have every facility for using these scientifically prepared feeds, many a herd has doubled its yield and profits. There are some painters who can buy lead, oil and acryl and mix and match their own feed, but the best beters of today have learned that mill-made brands are much better than anything they can mix with a paddle. The same is true in fertilizers to a great extent. In mixed feeds there can be no economy in home mixing because the mixatory factors, being near the large markets, can utilize by-products to the very best advantage. Home mixing cannot be accomplished at one-tenth of a cent per lb., besides the result is never twice alike and cannot be without the help of a laboratory.
[National Crop Improvement Service.]
A practical test shows that eight tons of a first class dairy feed will replace 13-1.3 tons of farm grain, making a proportionate saving of about $20 per ton and it also puts three times as much fertilizer back on the farm as is in the grain this farmer could sell.
[National Crop Improvement Service.]
There is no sense in hauling two loads each year when one load of high-grade feed will do the work and costs but three-fourths as much as the two loads.

SECRETARY REDFIELD.
field's communication to congress shows that serious thought has been given to the idea.
It is also possible that with the great weight in congress attached to the magic word "farmer," the members will give the fish commission a new building with more alacrity. The free seed legislation always meets unanimous approval. Perhaps in some future congress along with the packages of turpil seed and corn there will be sent out under congressional franks leavage something like this:
"My Stewardship consultant—I am sending you under separate cover a choice collection of fish eggs, including the roe of the shad, the perch, the dace, the chub and the dogfish. Plant these in your fish ponds, where I hope they will grow to be large and luscious fishes."
Secretary Redfield has been a consistent booster for the bureau of fisheries since he took office in the department of commerce, and under his administration the country has received several awards, to the edibility of fish little known historian. On the subject of fish for farms he says to congress:
"Nothing has been done toward the improvement of the races of fishes in respect to size, vigor, rapidity of growth and edible qualities. It is certain that the culture of fish in ponds on farms will assume importance within the next few years, and the farmer should have at his command the best brood stock obtainable and information in regard to its handling and improvement at least equal in reliability to that which he can obtain respecting poultry."
FISTS TESTED RECRUITS.
Riley Made Sure Men He Recommended and Were Fighters.
Chicago—Tom Riley of West Fifth street was told at the recruiting station that he was too old to fight, although he begged for an opportunity to enlist. He's too old to fight," he said, as he twisted his garrilled and bony hands, "but maybe I can send ye some likely lads. Whin they come in, cap, and tell ye they're fr'm Tom Riley, take me wrd-r they'll be all right."
That was one day recently. Since then more than twenty-five huskies have come in, saying they were "recruited" by Tom Riley. Barring black recruits and were gladly accepted.
Old Tom himself appeared again at the station and was informed that all of his recruits had been accepted.
Shave Renew His Youth
Bridgeville, Del. - Shaved for the first time in fifty years, Daniel F. Long, who lives outside of Bridgeville, is expecting to become a regular village "cutup." Long is about eighty years old and has not been shaved since he was thirty years old. Long has never visited a large city, never a circus, never was on a railroad train or seen a picture show. He expects to go "movie" and plans to visit Philadelphia on the next excursion.
THE EEST DAIRY FEED
All these products are widely used by the best dairy feeders and are relied upon very extensively in milk production. There is no doubt of the fact that if the supply of these products were radically limited or entirely exhausted, it would have a serious effect upon the milk production throughout the country and the dairymen would have one more burden added to their already overtaxed strength. Cottonseed meal is composed principally of the kernel, with such portion of the hull as is necessary in the manufacture of milk. Cottonseed meal, if choice, must contain at least 41 per cent crude protein. It is one of the richest of all feeds in this substance and carries about 8 per cent crude fat. On account of its extreme concentration it can be fed only in limited quantities and always in conjunction with some products to furnish bulk. This meal is an important ingredient in many manufactured feeds.
HOME MIXED FEEDS
When a man undertakes to mix his own raw ingredients what does he do? He buys straight wheat. Take cottonseed meal as a common example. Cottonseed meal are a great many different grades of cottonseed meal, and the man who is looking for a low-priced feed is sure to get a low grade. The demand for cheap feeding ingredients has caused the quality to be gradually whitted down. Consequently the farmer nearly always works with feeds which are poorer than he believes them to be. He does not get adequate state protection because inspectors do not go to a farmer's barn to draw samples, and even if they did, it would be to get a complete chain of evidence.
A farmer has no facilities for having his feed analyzed and he doesn't know what he is working with. The analyses of mixed feeds costs about ten cents per ton, and if every farmer will read the various bulletins from the agricultural colleges he will soon know those brands which can be depended upon. There is no doubt that at the present prices of grain any farmer can save money by selling his cereal crops and buying mixed feed. Cormmeal, oil meal and cottonseed meal are all high, but the by-products are low and rye are all more reasonable in value. Corn has become costly largely due to the demand for pork and beef. Americans will have those meat at almost any price. This puts corn a meat basis, and the dairy business will have to fall back on the by-products of grains.
GIVE COWS PLENTY OF WATER
When cows are in full milk they require plenty of water. It is stated authoritatively that cows in full flow require 100 gallons per cent more water than when dry.
Only that part of the feed that digest is of use—the rest is mostly fertilizer material.
No protein—no casein; no casein—no milk; not enough protein—not so much milk; also not enough feed—not so much food.
Foods with the highest protein and highest analysis are usually but not always the cheapest to use.
Cows won't make milk out of water and air.
[National Crop Improvement Service.]
Starchy feeds like corn and oats often sell as high as protein feeds because of the demand for them for horses and other work animals.
Starchy feeds are also good to fatten steers. That is why they are often as high in price as dairy feeds, which are strong in protein.
[National Crop Improvement Service.]
Home-grown grains can often be profitably traded for protein feeds. While oats are generally demanded for horse feed, they are nearly always too expensive for dairy feed. Oats by-prod. however, are very useful for bulk.

LIBERTY LOAN OF 1917
WHAT IS A LIBERTY LOAN BOND?
A Liberty Loan Bond is a solemn promise of the United States to pay at maturity the amount of the bond to the holder thereof, and to pay interest semi-annually each year from the date of the issuance of the bond until it is fully and finally paid.
WHAT IS THE SECURITY FOR A LIBERTY LOAN BOND?
LIBERTY LOAN BOND?
The faith and loan of the United States, backed by all of the resources of the nation and the American people, the bond is a mortgage on all the resources of the government and all of the resources of the American people.
WHAT IS THE NATURE OF A LIBERTY LOAN BOND.
There are two kinds of Liberty Loan Bonds. Bearer Bonds are to be issued in denominations of $100, $500 and $1,000. These Bearer bonds which are made payable to bearer, have interest coupons attached which are detached by the holder when the interest installments they represent are can be cashed at any bank the same as a United States treasury note.
Registered bonds are to be issued, which are registered as to both principal, interest, in denominations of $100, $500, $1000 and $100,000; checks for the amount of interest due will be mailed out semi-annually to the holders of these registered bonds.
WHAT AMOUNT OF AMOUNTS OF A LIBERTY LOAN BOND?
Liberty Loan Bonds of the first issue of $2,000,000,000 are to bear date of June 15, 1917, and for thirty years, except that the government reimburses the right to pay them fifteen years after date. If the government does not exercise by the government fifteen years from date, the bonds will run the full thirty years.
The bond's bear_interest at 3% per cent per annum, and the payable semi-annual on the 15th day of December and the 15th day of June in each year.
AT SPECIAL ADVANTAGES
HAVE THESE LIBERTY
LOAN BONDS?
One especial advantage no other bonds, national, state, municipal or corporate, have is that if the United States during the continuance of this war issue other bonds at a higher rate of interest, holders of these Liberty bonds have the right to exchange their Liberty bonds for bonds bearing the higher rate of interest, dollar for dollar.
WHAT OTHER SPECIAL ADVANTAGES DO THESE BONDS POSSESS?
They are non-taxable. If your city, county and state taxes are three mills on the dollar, tax, tax these bonds are equivalent to ordinary corporate bonds or other investments bearing $6\frac{1}{2}$ per cent.
In addition no federal tax which war conditions may later make necessary with these bonds. The only tax these bonds subject to is the inheritance tax, which applies to all property of all kinds whatsoever.
HOW ARE LIBERTY BONDS OBTAINED?
Blank forms of applications for the purchase of these bonds can be obtained by the Treasury Department, any federal reserve or state or private bank, any express face or any postoffice in the United States or postmaster will aid applicant in making out his blank and the other acts necessary to obtain these bonds.
It is not necessary to advertise these bonds to sell the whole issue, but it is better to sell this loan shall be a popular loan, than loan from the people at large of the United States, and not alone, from banks, companies and financiers. To that end, we have provided small denominations, and subscribers for small amounts are to be supplied to the subscribers for large amounts are granted their full subscription.
IS IT PATRIOTIC TO PURCHASE
THESE BONDS?
Yes; every American who subscribes to the justice of the course of the United States in entering and engaging the war we are now engaged in, to the Liberty Loan Bond issue to the extent of his or her financial ability. Every American who subscribes to the belief that an American should submit by his or her country should subscribe to the Liberty Loan Bond issue. Every American who loves America and is jealous of America's honor should subscribe to the Liberty Loan Bond issue. The real success of the mission is determined by the number of American soldiers in it than by the amount subscribed. The spirit of the nation is going to be judged abroad, especially by our enemies, more by the number of its American men and women who support a bond issue than by the mere amount of money seized.

A LIBERTY LOAN BOND IS A MORTGAGE ON THE UNITED STATES.
REMEMBER THE LUSITANIA AND BUY A LIBERTY LOAN BOND. WHY "LIBERTY LOAN"?
The $5,000,000 bond issue of this book is named "The Liberty Loan of 1917, because it is to be a loan from a free people to be used in freeing the world.
It is the loan of a liberty-loving people to be devoted to the establishment of liberty in Europe and on the high seas.
It is the loan of the great democracy of the New World to redress the wrongs and support the cause of democracy of the Old.

Every Square Foot of Water Near Port of New York Made Unsafe Even For Rowbate—Rear Admiral Knight Set About Safeguarding Narraganett Bay Naval District.
Washington—When the break with Germany came two of the most elaborate and intricate mine fields that a nation ever devised for the safeguarding of a city's water gates were planned. The coast guard and the corps of engineers to protect the trances to the waters immediately about New York. It was a task which was completed in all save the last detail, the actual laying of the mines, and these were stored by hundreds at Fort Totten and Sandy Hook, ready for the message from the war department which would send the mine layers out with their gingerly handled burens. The aggressiveness and determination which they delivered are a lesson of the European war which has not been lost upon the military and naval officials of this country.
REAB ADMIRAL KNIGHT.
It has certainly proved of vast value to the coast artillery, which as a second and third line of defense will be intrusted with the defense of New York. The first line is the navy, the fourth is the mobile army.
Newport, R. I., the seat of a torpedo factory, a mine base, fuel station, munition magazines, the naval war college and other departments of high naval importance, was formally transferred from the control of Collector of Customs Fitzsimmons to Rear Admiral Roberts, immediately set about protecting the and the entire Narraganess bay naval district against any emergency.
Mines were collected at Forts Greble and Adams ready for distribution in the waters of the harbor approaches. Every strategic center was placed under double guard, the public was refused admission and troops refused instances, absence except in special instances, known as the "mobilization slate," indicating the posts which they will be called upon to fill in the event of an actual mobilization order.
The naval torpedo factory was especially busy. Extra time by workers and operation in shifts have been ordered, while efforts were made to recruit 400 additional machinists. Three full quota torpedo destroyers, with a full quota of torpedo production, factory and ready at the same time to perform such other duties as the commandant may order.

Norfolk, Va.—As a protection against hostile submarines a powerful steel net has been placed in Hampton Roads between Fort Wool and the government pler at Fort Monroe. The net blocks roads and affords absolute protection to Fort Monroe and Old Point Comfort. The net was laid with so much secrecy that its presence was not known until masters of vessels were forbidden to pass over it without authority from the commanding officer of the navy patrol boat of the roads. The net is about two miles long. Its efficiency was proved by the capture of the steamship Madison.

AN INSULT TO PATRIOTS
The registration for the selective draft is over. It passed without any serious disturbances anywhere in the United States, although many arrests were made of people who were gullity of aiding the anti-registration propaganda. So far as the dispatches show, not a single colored citizen of the United States was delinquent in any way whatever.
And the colored people constitute the only group of which this can be said.
Now that the registration is over, it must not be forgotten, the colored citizens were subjected to an infamous insult and one which was not offered to any other class of citizens. The insult consisted of the inscription in the lower left hand corner of the registration card. "If person is of African descent tear off this corner." It was an insult classification.

George M.

It is said that the United States has gone into war to fight for democracy. If this is true the undemocratic conditions at home should be eliminated before the soldiers go abroad to fight for democracy.

She was worn out with the care of many young children and the burden of the literary work she was doing to ekke out the salary of Prof. Stowe. There was nothing but the prospect of a bitter struggle for a bare living when the inspiration of a lifetime came to her and she wrote her "Uncle Tom's Cabin."

YES, THERE WAS A TRAITOR.
THE APPEAL has stated a number of times that there are no colored traitors in the United States, but we feel that we ought to make a retraction.
A colored traitor has been found and his name is John Burlingame, a resident of the world famous murder city, Memphis, Tenn.
After a mob of leading Memphians had burned a colored man at the stake, dancing like wild Indians around the body as it burned, John Burlingame, a colored chauffeur, seized an American flag from an automobile he was driving and cried to several colored men who had witnessed this act of barbarism: "Come on boys! We are through! Let's join the Germans! Hurrah for the Kaiser!"
Then he tore up the flag. He was seized by a dozen men who started to lynch him for manifesting a lack of patriotism.
Officers, who claimed to be unable to protect Pearson from the mob, took Burlingame in custody and turned him over to the Federal authorities. He will be prosecuted. Yes, there was a traitor.
HARRIET BEECHER STOWE.
Harriet Beecher Stowe, author of "Uncle Tom's Cabin," was born in Litchfield, Conn., June 14, 1811, one hundred and six years ago, and died in Hartford, July 11, 1896.
Mrs. Stowe was the wife of Prof. Calvin Stowe and the daughter of Lyman Beecher.
J. F. Rhodes in his "History of the United States From 1850" says of "Uncle Tom's Cabin":
"The author felt deeply that the fugitive slave law was unjust and that there was cruelty in its execution; this inspired her to pour out her soul in a protest against slavery. She thought that if she could only make the world see slavery as she saw it her object would be accomplished; she would then have induced people to think right on the subject."
When Mrs. Stowe prepared the plan of the work that was to become famous and profitable beyond her fondest dream, she was approaching her

fortieth year. Her husband's small income hardly sufficed to meet the frugal needs of a large household. She was worn out with the care of many young children and the burden of the literary work she was doing to eke out the salary of Prof. Stowe. There was nothing but the prospect of a bitter struggle for a bare living when the inspiration of a lifetime came to her and she wrote her "Uncle Tom's Cabin." When the story was first published serially in the National Era, an anti-slavery paper in Washington, it obtained little notice. When, however, it was put on the market in book form it had the most extraordinary success. Longfellow thought that while it was one of the greatest triumphs of literary history, it contained an even higher moral triumph.
In England some of the most enthusiastic encomiums were passed upon the author and her book. Lord Palmerston, Lord Cockburn, Charles Kingsley, Lord Carlisle and Macaulay expressed their warmest appreciation of this strange novel and of the extraordinary influences which it was having in so many countries.
More than 1,000,000 copies of the book were sold within nine months after its publication. Thirty different editions were published in London within six months of the appearance of the book in America. It would be a long list which should contain the number of languages in which the work was published subsequently and Mrs. Stowe's name became a familiar one in all parts of the civilized world. "Uncle Tom's Cabin" was one of the most remarkable books ever written and it probably did more to cause the war of the rebellion than any other one influence. Abraham Lincoln, after he became president, expressed a desire to meet Mrs. Stowe and when she came to the White House he received her cordially. He looked at her intently for some time and then said, "So you are the little woman who caused the civil war!"
TRIBUNE VOMITS AGAIN
The following from the Chicago Tribune seems like a voice from the tomb. It is on a par with some of the stuff printed by the copperhead Tribune before and during the slaveholders' rebellion. The writer may have been born since 1870 but his think machine was evidently cast in one of the left over molds of 1850. It is headed:
BLACK MAN, STAY SOUTH!
They say down south that "niggers are all right in their place," but where is that place? South? At Memphis, Tenn., a Negro was recently burned alive. North? At East St. Louis, Ill., Negroes are mobbed, beaten, and run out of town.
We taunt the south with race prejudice when it burns a "bad nigger," but
THE LEGACY BET
just see how we northerners detest even "good niggers!" The real race prejudice is ours. Our very philanthropists betray it. They saw to a black man, "God bless you, good-by," whereas the south says, "—— you, come here!" Or put it this way: The northerner is a great friend of the Negro but not of a Negro; the outherner is a great friend of a Negro, but not of the Negro.
Prof. Munsterberg once described the race as "passive at every turn of fortune," yet within the last year Negroes by the thousand have actively undertaken to find a place for themselves. They have come north. It was a huge mistake. They escape barbarous punishment for their occasional crimes while winning no appreciation for their habitual virtues. They are disliked. When their presence be comes a burden, as at East St. Louis, they are abused.
It is on these terms only that they enjoy the longed for "liberties of the north"—its "social equality," for instance. But do they really enjoy that? Our observation goes to show that the Negro is happiest when the white race asserts its superiority, provided that sympathy and understanding accompany the assertion. Not long ago a Virginian noticed a very gloomy black porter in a northern hotel, and, learning that the Negro had come from Virginia, said, "You —— black fool go back to Virginia!" The reply revealed much: "O, Cunnel, dem's deust kind wud dat's been spoken to me since Ah come up noff!"
Southerners insist that "the niger must be kept down." They enforce the color line. Yet they will work side by side with Negroes, befriend them in adversity, and overlook their minor failings. Gradually they are working toward the results suggested in the carton on this page. They do not hate Negroes. In their heart they like them. Said Dooley: "I'm naught troubled whin the naygur is amon's his oppressors, Hinnessy. What throubles me is whin he falls into the hands iv his liberators."
In the same city where the foregoing vomit was spewed up, Miss Sophronisba Breckenridge, of the University of Chicago, a Southern woman and one of the famous Kentucky family of Breckenridge, said:
"The cry has gone up from a large number of people: What are we going to do with these 'dreadful men and women' who are coming to us from the South? I say we should be here to welcome them, to help them, to give them a chance to make Chicago a better home than they could find in the South."
THE TOMB OF WASHINGTON
British, French and Italian "Missions" have already visited the United States and others from Russia, Japan and Serbia are enroute. The British and French missions visited the tomb of Washington and placed wreaths thereon. Millions of loyal colored America citizens are deterred from visiting the tomb of the "Father of His Country" by the knowledge of the fact they would be obliged to travel in jim-crow cars to reach Washington's last resting place.
A NEEDED WAR MEASURE.
The government of the United States ought to stop lynching as a needed war measure. As a military necessity, loyal patriotic citizens ought to have a chance for their lives and no man, even though he be innocent of crime is safe when the lyncher is abroad.
The stern hand of military law ought to descend upon the people who are defying the law and making a mockery of democracy.
The daily newspapers often contain "scare heads" and accounts of horrible man burnings, where the victim is drenched with oil and burned at the stake. If some of these papers should get out of the country and fall into the hands of the Germans who have despoiled Belgium or into the hands of the Turks who have massacred the Armenians they might use them as a justification of their atrocities.
Loyal patriotic citizens of the United States demand the suppression of lynching and the summary punishment of the lynchers as a needed war measure.
THE GUARDIAN ON DR. ERISSELL
Commenting on the editorial in the Richmond Planet, which is printed in this issue, objecting to one of the points in Dr. Frissell's recent memorial, the Guardian says:
"Thus saith in very truth the Planet,
"We rise also to deny directly that the 'quiet service' lives of Booker Washington or of Russa Moton secured recognition of rights. The most striking thing about the race-leadership career of Dr. Washington was that coincident with it went the greatest period of loss of citizenship and of legal debarment from rights ever known in any race and especially during the time Dr. Washington preached most pronouncedly the doctrine of 'quietly deserving' rights. No further exposition of that matter by us is any longer needed.
"We warn Dr. Frissell against reviving the Booker Washington-negotiation issue. Dr. Washington's own friends do not relish or desire it."

WITH "MARKED CARDS"
In Its Army of Democracy U. S.
A. Begins With a New Jim-
Crowism Added to the Rest to
Fight for World Democracy,
but to Have Distinctions of Color
in Our Own Army—Denial of Equality.
(From the Journal, the leading daily paper of Boston, Mass., June 28, 1917.)
THE DEAREST PROMISE IN THE WHOLE OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES IS THE PROMISE OF EQUALITY FOR ALL, REGARDLESS OF RACE, COLOR OR PREVIOUS CONDITION OF SERVI TUDE.
But it is not always pleasant for a Negro to read that promise.
"Marked Garde"
Nor will the Negro feel a thrill of promise when he comes to write down his name for service to his country. For the registration card makes a distinction of color. The man who puts his name to that piece of pasteboard signifies that his life is at the disposal of this government in war. That should be enough. But no—the government asks that he shall specify his "color." Literally, this government is beginning with marked cards. We don't need to review the fine record of the African race in fighting the battles of America. Its men have been in the front rank wherever there came an opportunity to serve. History vouchers for that.
Now a Jim-Crow Registration
And here, when we come to fight for democracy, we find distinctions drawn according to the color of a man's skin. Negroes have not fared well during the present national administration. They have disappeared from public offices, and Jim Crow grip the South has grown firmer. And NOW A JIM CROW REGISTRATION.
Race and color in our "Army of Democracy."
If we were to define democracy as applied to the army of a democratic nation, we should picture men of all races and all creeds grouped together in equality. A white millionaire's son might share a tent with a Negro and a Chinese. But—"color"
Race, color and previous condition of servitude apparently are to be recognized in our army of democracy. Blunder No. 1.
But it must be wiped out. If an aristocratic snobbishness has drawn up the registration blanks, a democratic deciency must later deny the distinction.
Else we make a joke of our highest boast.
The Color Line.in the Catholic Church.
(From the Southwestern Christian Advocate, New Orleans, La.)
Vocate, New Orleans, La.)
There are two hundred thousand colored Catholics in the United States according to Walter F. McEntire, a prominent Catholic, who in telling of the orders and societies of men and women working among color people in the United States, among other things says in the Tidings, of Los Angeles:
"The Church knows no other in the House of God, and any man who tries to lay one down is not a true Catholic."
This is good reading but it is not true to fact. There are only two colored priests in the entire Catholic colored constituency of America, and the Catholic Church is the only religious body in America that forces on its constituency a white ministry. Moreover the colloquial issue is drawn as completely in the Catholic Church as elsewhere. There was time when the Catholic churches welcomed colored people to the altars but not now. St. Joseph Church, New Orleans, a few seats in the rear are marked reserved for colored.
The American prejudice has at last a full grip on the Catholic Church.
(From the Cleveland Gazette)
The governor of Massachusetts and mayor of Boston trying to find out why Jews are refused enlistment in that state's field artillery and in the first coast artillery. Also, why African Americans from that state (and others) are refused at the Plattsburg, N. Y., officers' military training camp where Dr. J. E. Spingarn is a major-in-training.
When meat was 15c a pound and flour $8.00 a barrel, the covered laborer received from $4.00 to $8.00 a week. Now meat is 30c a pound and $16.00 a barrel, he is receiving the same wages. He cannot live at this and the white man cannot expect him to remain in the South and live on the starvation wages he is paying him when the fields and the factories in the North and West are offering him living wages. If the white man will suppress lynching and lawlessness in the districts, pay the colored man living wages, him a square deal on the farms, better schools, open the doors of the shops and markets to his prowess, and let him in the labor unions, municipal ordinances (to keep colored men from leaving the South) will be unnecessary.
"Negroes and Dogs Not Allowed"
(From the Nashville Clarion)
In Douhout, Texas are some eleven in a "public buildings labeled 'NEGROES AND DOGS NOT ALLOWED.'" Generous classification! Such signs as these account in such measure, for the exceedingly weak manner in which the Colored men are depopulating the South. They can be mutilated nor censured for leaving a town like this. They have hearts and souls and human pride, just like the people of other races.
Our naval training camp has every nationality under the sun and a flag to float into the face of the bull. we have Chinamen out there, the Filipino out there, the Greek out there, the Hebrew out there, the Italian out there, and God himself only knows what else out there, but we do know that we are anywhere near there we are anywhere with a mop and broom. Space is limited to the boy of the Colored race in the school for which we are paying taxes.

Some of the papers are making a great "to do" over the election of a suffragan bishop calling it "progress." As a matter of fact a suffragan bishop is a "jim crow" bishop. He has no real power and is subject to the whims and caprices of the bishop under whom he serves. The election of such a bishop is an emphatic drawing of the color line. It is not progress, but retrogression.

Commends Protest by Guardian and Planet—Race Will Protest Till White America Accords the Rights Which . Belong to Every American Citizen —Steady Decline of Rights Under B. T. Washington Policy.
(From the Boston Guardian.)
Washington, D. C., June 1, 1917
Dear Mr. Trottier:—I have just read in the last issue of the Guardian your editorial, including the editorial of Mr. John Mitchell of the Planet, in which he administers a very just and timely rebuke to Dr. Frissell for some things which he says in the last issue of the Southern Workman.
Rights Declined Under Washington.
Rights Declined Under Washington.
It is amazing that at this late day, and after the STEADY DECLINE OF OUR RIGHTS UNDER MAR. WASHINGTON'S POLICY of "quiet, unpretentious service," that Dr. Frissell should be attempting to revive that pernicious, un-American, unmanly, heresy of quiet submission to wrong, was: "Cry directed, spare not, lift up thy voice like a bird, declare unto my people their transparency and the house of Jacob their sine." And that is what we have been doing, and will continue to do, until White America heeds the message, turns from its evil ways and accords to the colored man the rights which justly belongs to him as much as to any other American citizen.
Dr. Frissell had just as well understand now, once for all, that the policy for which he stands, as regards our rights, will never be accepted by the police. The inoculation of such a policy comes with grace from white men who never think of following it when their own rights are involved.
Think Colored Unlike Whites
It is because, after all, they think that the Negro is made of a little different clay, and therefore that it is alright for HIM TO QUETLIY SUBMIT TO WHAT WHITE MEN WOULD NOT BE EXPECTED TO SUBMIT TO, AND, WOULD NOT SUBMIT TO WITHOUT THE MOST VIGOROUS PROTEST?
Put Themselves In Our Place.
If some of our white friends would put themselves in the place of the colored man, and realize that there is no essential difference between the colored man and themselfs, they would be saved from some of the foolish things which they recommend at times.
Let the Agitation Go On.
Let the Planet, let the Guardian, let all the colored newspapers, continue to speak out, and, in every other legitimate way, LET THE AGITATION GO ON. It is in vain for Dr. Frissell, or an one else to try to stop it.
Years for equality of rights for all citizens, regardless of race or condition.

Hates the Term "Negro."
"I hate the term Negro because it is being used in terms of hatred. It is the cause of the segregation of the Negro; it is being used in contempt in public places; it is an excuse for distranchising him; and it is an exertion for lynching him. Only one tenth of one per cent of the colored people in America can trace their descent to Africa; and there is no more right to call a whole people Negroes than to call all who people Turks or Armenians."—Ex-Assistant United States Attorney General Wm. H. Lewis, Boston, Mass.

REV. B. N. MURRELL.
Leaves For Fort Des Moines to Become a Chaplain in the Army.
Something over two years and six months ago Rev. B. N. Murrell was installed as pastor of Pilgrim Baptist Church and since that time has conducted the affairs of the church both spiritually and financially in a very satisfactory manner to the members of the church and of the general congregation.
Just after finishing the course in the Military Academy of the University of Illinois, Rev. Murrell enrolled in the reserve officers' corps for the office of chaplain but the government has had no need for his services. However, now, he has been ordered to Des Moines to take his place in the corps at Fort Des Moines and he left for
REV. B. N. MURRELL.
Des Moines Monday evening, for a
three months' course of training.
He tendered his resignation as pastor of Pilgrim but it was not accepted and he still remains pastor in charge of the church. An effort is being made to secure the services of Dr. Charles S. Morris, of Norfolk, Va., who created such a furor here as an evangelist and orator, to supply the pulpit for three months, which would doubtless be very satisfactory to all parties concerned. Rev. Murrell carries with him the best wishes of a host of friends he has made during his sojourn in our city.

Speak slowly and distinctly, with the lips not more than an inch from the mouthpiece, when you call a telephone number.
Several numbers sound much alike over the telephone unless spoken clearly. For example, 4 sounds much like 0, and 2 like 3, and 5 like 9.
That is why the telephone operator must have your number slowly, one figure at a time, or she is likely to misunderstand you.
To guard against errors the operator repeats the number you call.
Say "Right" if the operator repeats the number correctly; if not, say "No" and give it again.
