The Appeal

In business, fortunes are not realized Unless your goods are amply advertised. Swedes Ask Permission to Sell It. Hunger Marches Continue. Hunger Marches Continue. Stockholm — The Bakers' Association of stockholm presented a memorial to the state economic commission setting forth the state's obtaining surplus cute rye and wheat flour and asking the authorities to permit and to order them to use a certain proportion of oat or barley flour in bread. The bakers assert that the situation indicates with certainty that such a measure must be eventually resorted to and point out the advisability of doing it now instead of delaying until the time when the proportions of barley and oats must necessarily be greater than would be the case now. A file of female factory workers estimated at 5,000 marched recently in an orderly manner through the eastern and western Stockholm to the office of the largest local milk company, where they demanded a better distribution of milk and lower prices. Hunger demonstrations continue at various places in the kingdom. METEOR LIKE SEARCHLIGHT. Crashes Into Mountains and Illumi- nates Whole Valley. Bishop, Cal.—Illuminating the upper Owens valley for half a minute like a searchlight in the skies, a meteor of extraordinary size and brilliancy flared across from east to west one night and brought up against the high Sierra Nevada. There was a crash that could be heard for miles when the foreign body hit the mountain side far above the floor of the valley. It sounded like the impact of a projectile from a great gun against a fort. Residents were startled by the passage of the mighty streak of blue-white fire through the darkness and again by the loud explosion that followed concomitant fire. The gun stopped it. Then followed a tumbling of dislodged stones not far from the camp of the Round Valley Tungsten MORGAN ON PATROL DUTY. Financier's Son Assigned to Ship. Young Iselin Also Enrolls. New York.—Junius Spencer Morgan, son of J. P. Morgan, who recently received an ensign's commission in the naval coast defense reserve, was called into active service and assigned to duty on a coast patrol boat. Ensign Morgan has always been interested in boats and sailing. Last summer he shipped as an ordinary seaman on the U. S. S. Maine for the civilian training cruise. Adrian Iselin 2d, son of C. Oliver Iselin, who has sailed many cup defenders to victory, enrolled in the naval boat school, born on the Navy Paul Nevin, son of the late Edwin Nevin, called at the naval reserve office to enroll. Mr. Nevin came from Tulsa, Okla. As a member of the civilian crew of the Maine last summer he made a record in gunnery. Takes Four Into Her Charge on a Ranch. -Santa Ana, Cal.-Four coyote pups have been adopted by a mother dog on the ranch of Arthur Pefey, north of Santa Ana. The coyotes were found in the foothills back of El Modena by Virgil Pritchard, a high school boy, whose dogs fought off the mother coyote while Virgil got away with the little coyotes, Clarence Pefey had a dog with two puppies. The four strangers were put on the ground near the mother and the puppies, who were busily engaged in partaking of a meal. Rathenebilded, the coyotes crept to the mother dog. The dog eyed the coyotes, then when they approached she began licking them, and soon the coyotes were just as busily engaged in eating as were their cousins. CHARLES P. TAFT 2D ENLISTS With Nine Yale Students Enters Artillery Service. New Haven, Conn.—Charles P. Taft 24, son of William Howard Taft and a junior in Yale college, enlisted for the artillery branch of the regular army with nine other undergraduates. All the enlistments were of students who were under age for the reserve officers' training corps of the university and had consent of their parents. The squad will go to Fort Myer, Va. The students who were enlisted with Taft were John M. Anderson, Jr., Clinchnaut; Robert T. Calrins, Overbrook, Pa.; George H. Ennis, Jr., Berdy, Conn.; John E. Fasick, Altoona, Pa.; Francis T. McNamara, Clinton, Mass.; Cyril B. Mosher, East Greenwich, R. I; Albert H. Stackpole, Harrisburg, Pa.; H. S. Porter, Higganum, Conn.; Carl M. Thomas, St. Louis. Child Falls From Claremont Boat Club's Float. New York—In an effort to give her Teddy bear its first deep water bath Virginia Peterson, three and one-half years old, toppled from a float anchored off the Claremont Boat club, One Hundred and Eighth street and the North river, and was drowned. The child was a prime favorite with your mother along the North river and with your father at the boat club, where the latter is used as mad. Robert Harris of 201 Worcester- sixth street recovered the body, but resuscitation was impossible even with a pulmotor. VOL. 33. NO 44 PRINCESS TO WED Ceremony Is Expected to Unite Japan and Korea. EMPEROR TO SANCTION IT. Prince Yi, Prospective Bridgroom, is Twenty Years Old and Princess Fifteen—Young Prince is a Student in Military Academy, From Which Hell Be Graduated Next Year. Tokyo.—The secret already suspected of the visit of Count Terauchi, governor general of Korea, to Japan is now fully revealed in the announcement of the betrothed of Prince Yi, eldest son of the formal Emperor, the Princess Masako Nashimoto, first daughter of Major General Prince and Princess Nashimoto, says the East and West News agency. The prince is high in Japanese army circles. The idea of the union and the choice of the lady are highly approved in Japan. Prince Yi is twenty years old, and the princess is fifteen, and both are receiving their education, so the marriage will not take place for a few years. All the necessary arrangements have been considered except the formal sanction of the emperor and the formal approval of Prince Yi, father of Prince Yi, and Prince Yi, his brother—both stated to be matters of form, since Count Terauchi obtained the consent of the Korean princes before he left Seoul. Princess Masako Nashimoto was born in 1901, and is now in the third year class in Peeress school. She will complete her course in the middle grade in 1018. She is one of the best students in her class. The young Prince Yi is a student in the Military academy, from which he will be graduated next year. Since he was brought to Japan by the late Prince Ito several years ago he has lived entirely according to Japanese customs. A area of such a union originated with the late Prince Ito. No prejudice for a marriage of this sort is made in the constitution for the imperial family of Japan. As a result a revision in the constitution will be necessary. MOTORMAN FOR HIS HEALTH. Accident Discoveries Son of Well to Do Parents on Sand Car. New York. - How Frederick M. Hull, Jr. the son of well to do parents, became a motorman to regain its health became known after a collision between a trolley and a sand car of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit company. Hull, who is twenty-four years old, was charged of the sand car. As he was attempting to make a switch a passenger car in charge of John Doberty coming in the opposite direction collided with it. Doberty was taken to the Kings County hospital suffering from cuts and bruises. It was learned after the accident that Hull was the son of Mrs. Irving T. Hynds, who married a second time. In his earlier years he was a popular athlete in Erasmus Hall high school. On June 10, 1915, he disappeared from his home and was absent six days. When he was found to be offering from a soldier he was contacted by a physician said he was suffering from amnesia and recommended outdoor employment. Four months ago he took the job as motorman. GUM RACK FOR SCHOOLS. Thinka Children Should Have It on Playgrounds. Madison, Wits. -The State Education al Bulletin, issued recently, comments favorably on a suggestion of President J. W. Crabtree of the River Falls Normal school that there should be gum racks in schools. "Pupils have a right to chew gum," said President Crabtree. "Teachers do it, but they know when and how. Why not teach these conventionalities to the pupils?" To permit the pupils to chew gum on the playground and on the way to and from school. But what will the poor child do with his gum while the recitation or assembly room? A gum rack at the entrance of the room containing a number and peg for each pupil solves the problem." This Is Some Family. Berea, Ky.-Mr. and Mrs. Reuben Davidson of this city have eleven children, 100 grandchildren and thirty-two great-grandchildren. Their children, in the order of their ages, with their offspring, are as follows: Mrs. Hensley, nine grandchildren; twelve grandchildren; Mrs. Brewett; three grandchildren; Mrs. Baker; Mrs. Baker, eight children; and three grandchildren; Daniel Davidson, twelve children and six grandchildren; John Davidson. eight children; Mrs. Robbins, eight children; Samuel Davidson, eight children; and one grandchild; Mrs. Robbins, five children; Mrs. Gilbert, five children; Cabal Davidson, three children. Didn't Believe In Banks. St. Louis.-Stories of gold pieces on a tray stacked six inches high. large sun-starved in out of way corners of a Gasconade town (Mo.) farm and of bills of large denominations stuck between the leaves of a family Bible form the basis of a suit brought in probate court by the heirs of George V. Miller, a wealthy farmer, who didn't believe in banks. MAY EAT OAT BREAD DOG ADOPTS COYOTES DROWNS BATHING TOY THE LEST DAIRY FEED de From Grain from Which the Human Food Values Have Been Taken. By Prof. F. D. Fuller. The reason why the best dairy feeds are less expensive than the same grains on the farm is 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 factors, 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 im- residue daily in the arts, the solid residue daily in the vacuo, and is then known as "dried" milk. These are made from corn, these grains contain an average of about 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 over 70 per cent more crude protein than wheat bran and as much crude fat. In fact, their food value is largely increased by the process. 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 reason that if the supply of these products is radically limited or entirely exhausted, it would have a 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 oil. 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 limnium and always in conjunction with sugar to furnish bulk. This meal is an important ingredient in many manufactured feeds. HOME MIXED FEEDS. National Crop Improvement Service. When you buy your own rations, what does he? He buys straight feeds. Take cottonseed meal as a common example. There 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 whithed down. Consequently the farmer nearly always works with feeds which he does not believe he needs to be. He does not get adequate state protection because presupposed do not go to a farmer's barn to draw food samples, and even if they did, it would be hard 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 notice those brands which can be depended on. There is no doubt that at the present the grain grain any farmer can save money by feeding his cereal crops and buying mixed feed. Cornmeal, oil meal and cottonseed meal are all high, but the by-products of barley and rye are more reasonable in price. Corn has become costly largely due to the demand for pork and beef. Americans will have those meats at almost any price. This puts corn on a meat basis, and the dairy business will have to fall back on the by-products of grains. GIVE COWS PLENTY OF WATER. [National Crop Improvement Service.] 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. Poor feed sells to poor feeders 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. White oats are generally demanded for horse feed, they are nearly always 'too expensive for dairy feed. Oats by-products, however, are very useful for bulk. Defective Page A RAILROAD ARMY They Will Be Part of Regular Force, and at Head of Each Regiment as Colonel Will Be Engineer Officer of Army-Construction Will Be Main Work. New York.—Need for expert railroad men to repair the links in France is so pressing that an urgent call has been sent out by the railroaders war board to the various roads of the country for assistance in organizing nine regiments of railroad men to go at once to France. They will be a part of the regular army, and at the head of each regiment as colonel will be an engineer officer of the army. The work of the board call for five construction regiments, one shop or repair regiment and three operations. Construction will be the main work of the men sent over, but the repair and operating needs are hardly immediate. A notice sent out by the railroaders war board says: "The French railways are badly run down. They need more or less complete rehabilitation. France has no men who can be spared for this work. She wants all her men at the front. Before we can train to go into the treches we need, it is France's railroad wants, and we can do it immediately. Any men we send over must be soldiers, so it will be necessary for the railroad forces to enter the army. "We propose to make up five construction regiments of six companies each to do this rehabilitation. Each regiment will have an engineer officer of the United States army as colonel and another officer from the army as an adjutant. The other officers will be made up of railroad men, except that the commissary will be provided by the United States army. Each leutenant colonel will be a chief engineer of a railroad or some other military experience. The captains will be taken from the engineers of maintenance of way, the leutenants from supervisors or road masters and the noncommissioned officers from track and bridge foremen. The privates will be track laborers. "The pressing need just now is for officers for these regiments. They will require five chief engineers, thirty engineers of maintenance of way, ninety engineers or road masters, sixty track foremen, and forty bridge foremen. Each company will have 150 track laborers and fourteen bridge carpenters as private. "The next important requirement of the French railways is for shop forces. They are short of men to repair their locomotives. It is proposed to organize a shop regiment, to be made up the same way as the construction regiments, except that the leutenant colonel will be a superintendent of motive power, the captains will be master men, the leutenants will be shop foremen, and noncommissioned officers gang foremen. The company will be made up of bollermakers, machinists, blacksmiths and their helpers." TOY GUNS POPULAR. Modelled After Anti-aircraft Weapons Used by Zeppelin. Washington.-Teddy bears and miniature anti-aircraft guns are by far the most popular toys in Great Britain, says Consul Wilson in a report from the United States bureau of foreign and domestic commerce. Doyle bears have always been more or less popular, but recent events seem to have created a greatly increased demand for this toy. The toy guns are modelled after the anti-aircraft guns which were brought in conjunction by the visits of the Zeppelin. Toys that find the most ready sale are those of a military character. NEW FORM OF "CON" GAME. Two Inches of Butter Spread on Sand Sold to Chicago Consumers. Chicago, Ill.—A new form of confidence game has been practised with success here during the last few days. Several storekeepers and hospitals have reported to the police that they have purchased from agents tubs purporting to contain sixty pounds of butter, but have found when cutting into the tubs extended but one or two inches from the surface and that the rest of their purchase was sand. The tubs were sold for as high as $19.50, making the price of the butter in the neighborhood of $4 a pound. FAVORS DAYLIGHT SAVING. President, However, In Doubt as to Necessary Legislation. Washington. — President Wilson expres- sed his approval of the daylight saving plan to a delegation headed by Representative Borland of Missouri and Marcus Marks of New York, pres- ident of the National Daylight Saving association. The president told them the only quo- nition he mind about legislation to curve it he operation was whether congress leaders would look to war legislation, to which they have tacitly agreed to limit the session's activities. The subject will be taken up with the leaders. DOUBLE DUTY A Dairy Ration Haa Two Main Uses— Life and Product. [National Crop Improvement Service.] 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 what this is we 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 protein, keeps the cow healthy and enables the use of the most roughage. All the hay and ensailage 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 cow can usually use carbohydrates cheap in the form of hay and ensailage, and outside of clover, 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 higher now, while hay (clover) with 20 per cent digestible protein has been rated as the most suitable to the protein feed at $40 would furnish the protein about the same as clover at $10. DIFFERENT COWS, DIFFERENT FEEDS. No National Farm Improvement Service.1 No recommendation that we can offer nor any other form of nutrition can be made can be followed to the letter as a druggist follows the prescription 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 nutrient. These cows make it necessary for the feeder to make judgment and not follow too blindly the judgments of others. Any good stock feed 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. Improvement 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) Variety, (5) Suitability of the feeds to the animal and product, (6) Palatability, (7) Cost. For example, choosing the cheapest feeds relatively, considering maural values, suitability and all, we would recommend the following mixture of grains as suitable for dairy at present prices: 600 pounds distillers dried grains. 600 pounds gluten feed. 600 pounds wheat bran or brewer dried grains. 600 pounds hominy feed. 600 pounds oil meal. Professor Henry says that a cow requires three-quarterstars, an ounce per day per 1000 lbs. of wheat, and six-tenths of an ounce per day per 100 lbs. milk. Therefore, a 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. THE PRICE OF FEED. Feed is handled on a smaller margin than coal, ton for ton. The retail feed dealer who buys in carload lots can sell as cheap as the manufacturer can in less-than-carload lots, the difference in freight rates being the dealers' 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. 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 feed by feeding more than the cow can assimilate. [National Cow Impairment Service.] The human element in daily feed is important. Two men may have the same equipment, one make good money, the other fail, while both are supposed to be feeding by the same system and the same tables. Horse sense is good cow sense. TERMS USED IN FEEDING Scientific Nomenclature Reduced to Every-Day Meanings. [National Corp Improvement Service.] Stockfood consists briefly of three chief parts or compounds, omitting the water and minerals. They are: Protein (containing nitrogen), a muscle former. Fat (not containing nitrogen), a fuel or fattening substance. Carbohydrates (meaning made of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen). These three substances are called organic matter, because they will burn. Mineral matter is called inorganic. An animal can live on protein alone, but would not under normal conditions, because protein (or albumin) is only found mixed with fat in the case of meat and with fat and carbohydrates in the case of plants and cereals. Familial examples of protein are white eggs, lean meat and the gluten—an ingredient out of wheat. Fat or oil we all know. Carbohydrates include sugar, starch, cellulose, fibre, gums, etc. To keep alive and not lose weight an animal must have small amounts of protein and larger amounts of fat or carbohydrates. They serve as building material to replace worn-out tissue and flesh and also to furnish power (energy) to move, work, and do all the inside work of the body. The ash or mineral matter furnishes bone material and is also needed but abundant in nature. A growing need needs plenty of protein and ash (heme) food for carbohydrates and fat. A growing need needs less of either the first two, but plenty of the last two. A pregnant animal needs plenty of food for its unborn young. BUYING FEED INGREDIENTS Difficult to Buy Proper Feed Staffs at Random. [National Corp Improvement Service.] There are not a dozen feed stores in the country that carry in stock all the ingredients of a first-class mixed feed at all times and at reasonable prices, and usually they do not carry lots of the same high quality used by the mixers who work scientifically through the laboratory camp and a dealer to sell the cheapest quality. The quality of feed is seldom carried, because the average buyer will not pay the highest price. A good many experiment stations in a general way will advocate that a farmer mix all his own feed, but they are human like the rest of us and they will use recognized brands in their own feeding operations rather than go to the trouble and take the time to follow their own advice. There are a good many hardset experiment stations which are kept as sort of a clinic for professors to practice theories upon. The poor brutes are used a good deal as guinea pigs in hospital practice. On the other hand the experiment stations are to be many of the finest animals ever bred. The mixed feeds of the first grade can be fed alone or in connection with home-grown corn, oats or barley. Do this widens your ration, and it correct to do so if it will reduce your cost of feeding. Mixed feeds, therefore, are largely a matter of arithmetic. You can usually get the result for less money than by feeding more expensive grains separately. THE MANURIAL INGREDIENTS OF FEEDS. Nitrate is the most important and most valuable cultivating element supplied by feeds, and it is in this element that they show the greatest variation. The Connecticut Experiment Station states that it was found that the average mixed fertilizer contained 2.95 per cent nitrogen and showed in a table that eighty of fifty-two different feeds contained 3.93 per cent. Among this list is cottonseed and linseed, alms, gluten seed, middlings, brewers' millets, seeders' products, and a few of the feedstores. It is obvious, therefore, that a wide selection of feeds enhances the value of the manure and consequently plays an important part in farm economy. BARLEY PRODUCTS Prof. J. F. Seet, in the Annual Report of the Connecticut Agricultural Station for 1912, says: "That malt sprouts should receive more consideration from dairymen, especially in comparison with many of the proprietary mixed feed containing only from one-third to one-half as much protein as malt sprouts, prices being considered." He also states that dried brewers' grains, prices considered, in connection with the feed's high analysis, is one of the cheapest high-grade feeds on the market. **WHAT'S IN A MIXED FEED?** *(National Crop Improvement Service.)* A high-grade mixed feed suitable for an animal or breed of dairy cow should have high protein content, with an exact digestible analysis. It can be mixed with corn, oats, barley, or hay or other forage, which should be grown upon the farm provided the mixture would save the farmer any money. As a rule, the ingredients of the highest grades are corn, millers' grains, gluten feed, cottonseed meal, hominy meal, malt sprouts, brewer grains, linseed meal, pure wheat bran and salt. The best grades contain no cheap fillers of any kind and so the food is highly concentrated and roughage can be supplied at home.

Areas Likely to Be Theaters of War Operations Designated and Recommendations Presented For Road Building-In Certain Contingencies May Fix Food Prices. Washington.-Governors who sought advice from the Council of National Defense concerning their war activities at the national defense conference received their instructions in a detailed statement which covered a hundred phases of the work necessary to get the country in shape for a successful war against Germany. The advice was in the form of answers to stated questions on industrial and military subjects. There ran through the document an apparent warning against hysteria in action which might hamper rather than accomplish the desired results. Here are some of the important points made: First.-The national council recommends that the state councils shall encourage economy and discourage extravagant living and the purchase of luxuries among the people of their respective states. Second.-In regard to the postponement of state or municipal works now under the law and not of pressing importance the council, in general speaking," advises that nothing now more way should be abandoned except under pressing necessity; nor should new projects be started not of pressing importance. Third—The council has not made any suggestion for the postponement in any state of work on co-operative highway projects to such an extent that redistribution of public money will be necessary. Third—The filing of a census by states of Maine for either military or industrial service, supplementing federal registration—a step which has been contemplated in some other states—was discouraged. On this point the document says: "The council does not desire such a census for the present. It is not needed just now and when completed and ready for use would soon be obsolete owing to rapidly changing industrial conditions." Fifth—The council may in certain cases fix either or both minimum and maximum authorized by law, but holds that unregulation is passed it is impossible to make a definite statement. In reply to advice in regard to the road building which would make the location and character of the highway better suited for military purposes, the council furnishes a copy of a letter from Secretary Baker to Secretary Houston giving in detail the areas likely to be the theater of war operations representing recommendations as to road building for military purposes. The areas in question are: (a) The area about Long Island, including most of the states of Rhode Island, Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut and New York. (b) The area about New Jersey, including much of the states of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina and Delaware. (c) The Pacific coast area, including (d) The Mexican border, including the southern part of the states of Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California. (e) The great lakes area, including the states of Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Illinois and parts of Wisconsin and Minnesota. COULDN'T SCARE SAILOR. Officer Told Threatening U Boat Cap tain to "Shoot Away." London.—Douglas Duff, the fourth officer and the only survivor of the steamer Thiraca, sunk by a German submarine on April 27, says in depositions that three hours after the ship was sunk the German submarine approached the capsized boat, the stern of which had been blown off, to which he was clinging, and asked him the usual questions regarding the destroyed steamer and her destination. It was 11 o'clock at night and very dark. The submarine commander first threatened to shoot Duff, says the crew, but the commander insisted that he replying, "Shoot away." This commander then said, according to Duff, that he wouldn't waste powder on an Englishman and left Duff to his fate. He was picked up twelve hours later by a French fisherman. ARMY NEEDS GENERALS. Promotions Expected to Be Made Only Upon Merit Basis. Washington.—The new national army will require about twenty-nine new major generals and more than 100 brigadier generals, according to cochairs of the war department. There will be a total of thirty-six divisions, each of which will have one major general and four brigadier generals. The army act empowers the president to direct this discretion. The belter prevails that the president and secretary of war both are determined only upon merit and special fitness. This policy would coincide exactly with those of France and England, which are advancing younger men to the higher commands. J. Q. ADAMS, EDITOR AND PUBLISHER ST.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1917 OUR COLORED SOLDIERS "The American Negro has the making of a fine soldier. That is the testimony of military experts, as well as the verdict of history. Colored troops have fought for the Republic in all of its wars, and have acquitted themselves like men. They have shown their metal on many a field and in many a tight place. "In the Civil War they made a fine record. In the regular army they have proved themselves dauntless fighters and dare-devil riders. The Tenth Cavalry, a detachment of which showed great courage and stamina in the Carrilaz affair in Mexico last year, has been called the finest cavalry regiment in the world. "The colored population of the country is cheerfully furnishing its share of the men for the new National Army. It is expected that about one-eighth of the American contingent in Europe will be made up of colored troops. Only the other day the Minnesota contingent of young colored Americans left for Fort Dodge, each one evidently glad of the opportunity to serve his country. "More than ever before American colored troops will have officers of their own race, especially in the lower grades. Young men of Negro blood have made unusually good records in the officers' training school, and their instructors predict brilliant service from those who won commissions. "The country is likely to have many occasions for feeling proud of its colored soldiery in the coming strenuous campaigns in France. The above is an editorial that appeared in the Minnesota Daily Journal a few days since and it breathes such a spirit of fairness that we take pleasure in reproducing it. WAR AND THE COLORED PEOPLE. There are, we opine, very few thinking people who do not agree with General Sherman in his declaration of what war is. And if there were any doubting Thomasases, three years ago, they, doubtless, are now convinced that Sherman knew whereof he spoke. Since Uncle Sam really got into the world war there has been a very preceptible change in this country and the people generally are measuring up to the conditions that confront them. They are patriotically THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man entious discharge o stand alone; the w intolerant judgment the countenances o averted, and the he cold, but the sense be sweeter than the world, the counten the hearts of friends I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Sumner. buying Liberty Loan Bonds by the billions, they are conserving on food, they are sending their men, young and old, by the hundreds of thousands, to assist the allies in winning the war. The women, God bless them, are taking a hand as they never did before and showing that they are entitled to receive the consideration men receive, by taking up and performing men's work in all sorts of labor or endeavor. This war has worked wonders in industrial lines for the colored people, and they by thousands are securing positions, in the labor world, for which they were not even considered three years ago. They are also receiving consideration in military matters such as was hardly thought possible, and they are generally making good. This utter fact is very gratifying as they are learning that their efforts are not confined to certain menial lines, but they have something of a chance to earn their bread by the sweat of their rows in many new fields. And, while war may be all that Sherman says it is, it has in a way verified the old adage: it's an ill wind that blows nobody good. GRAMMATICAL UNANIMITY Hoover says the prices of food will be reduced before the New Year comes and Garfield says there will be plenty of coal for all domestic and industrial needs. Crozier says there will be rifles enough for our soldiers to go to France. Sharpe says there will be adequate heating apparatus in the cantonment barracks. The use of the future tense by the authorities at Washington seems to be unanimous, and, if these things come in the near future we'll hall them as prophets. SHOW US. A representative of the Department of Agriculture addressed a meeting in Washington a few days ago and emphasized the need of production of surer milk at a lower price. He might earn a farm and show the American fairy-tale how to do it, for it can be done. INCREASED PENSIONS PROPOSED Substantial increases in existing rates of pension for disablement of the limbs from injuries received in line of duty, are contained in a bill introduced by Representative George P. Darrow of Pennsylvania, which will come up for action by the House at the next session of congress. Mr. Darrow's proposed rates run from $65 for the loss of total disability of one hand or one foot, to $150 for the loss or total disability of both arms and both legs. They amount roughly to an increase of about 60 per cent in the existing rates for similar cases. The bill is made to apply to persons already on the pension rolls, and to all who may be granted a pension hereafter, but Mr. Darrow specifically provides that the measure shall not operate to reduce any pension heretofore granted. The passage of this measure will be heartily approved of by the people. WAR SAVINGS CERTIFICATES. NEW WAR SAVINGS CERTIFICATES The new war savings certificates will bear 4 per cent interest, will run for a term of five years and will be issued in denominations as low as $5. They are to be just what their names indicate, "saving" certificates, a means of investment for small savings, so that the money will be safe and profitable and at the same time affording the government the use of it. It is planned to sell the certificates to "HUMAN NATURE My ear is My soul is sick with ev Of wrong and outrage, There is no flesh in man It does not feel for man Of brotherhood is severe That falls asunder at t He finds his fellow guil Not colored like his o To enforce the wrong, My soul is sick with every day's report Of wrong and outrage, with which earth is filled.

When there are sufficient stamps to cover the cost of a certificate the book can be exchanged for one. The stamps will be placed on sale in every town and city in the country. The individual who has money laid by for a rainy day need have no hesitation in converting it into war savings certificates, since the government will redeem them at any time upon the request of the holder, allowing interest at 4 per cent. Under this arrangement the investor in these certificates will have the satisfaction of knowing that if any emergency should arise in his family, such as sickness or death, he could immediately realize upon his certificates. It is a safe prediction that the war savings certificates will go like "hot cakes." Their small denomination, the good interest rate, the terms upon which they may be purchased, the fact that they are not subject to taxation when held by persons of small means—all will make them an attractive investment. Working people whose margin of income above expenses is narrow at best will find in them an excellent incentive for beginning the prudent habit of saving. They will be popular for Christmas presents. School children will be able to invest part of their little weekly allowances in certificates. As a result many millions will be transferred to the Federal Treasury and through it will flow into the channels of trade, while the people of small means will be made to feel that they, too, are doing their share toward helping their country win the war. THE POWER OF UNITY. "United we stand; divided we fall" is an old maxim and is one which a nation no less than an individual can afford to overlook. We stand with Germany, one of the greatest military powers on earth. It is needless for me to stop here and recount the many destructive instruments that she employs to take human life or the wanton toll of death. The most important of the hour is "How do we stand as a nation? we are moving forward as one man with a solid front against the enemy; we are divided and weak, quibbling over our insignificant matters among ourselves. In looking the matter over with circumspection and great care I am compelled to say that the picture does not show the woman, the drinking was the crime, outrageous the detention recently perpetrated upon poor defenseless colored people of East St. Louis that I sometimes wish I could not from my memory, but, alas, I cannot. I cannot, I cannot, to witness another crime which was perpetrated at Houston, Texas, apparently in a sense of retaliation. Its results are no less grevious, the systematic practice of people living in this country, clothed with all the guarantees of the constitution with which other citizens are clothed, yet through the systematic practice of the crimes the races are at dagger points; the fires of resentment are constantly soldering just below the surface and require but a breeze of ill-wind to carry them. In any part of this country instead of being good will the opposition is the condition. So, now, instead of the nation being able at this time to defend herself with unity and courage she is busying herself with that dead issue—"The Negro Problem." Before this great world war is ended, every vestige of "jim-crowism" shall have been swept from the statute books of this country. When this is done the ever-loyal colored people will re-enter the deadly trench, stand upon the parapet and in the jaws of Hell—he will truthfully sing.

G.-Secretary Baker of the war department has announced that colored troops drafted into the army will receive the same conscription and training as the troops herefore given them under the rules of the army. Those colored troops drafted in states having camps of the army will be trained in them, which means that the training is gmented of colored troops will train at Rockford. Units from other states will be assembled and trained with them as separate organizations, the same as is now done in the regular army. Will Be Called Separately. "The rule of the regular army in the matter of the training of the troops as separate organizations will be adhered to," said Mr. Baker. "The call for colored men will be postponed until one of the latter calls, so that they will be called at a separate time, by giving an opportunity to the officers at camps to assemble the organizations of the army, are parts substantially all at one time. They will not be called last, but they will be called separately. May Volunteer for France may volunteer for France. "An colored men called in a state which has a cantiment in it will be organized in the army, then the mission will be made for the assembly of colored troops from those states which have no cantments. It has not yet been made. An opportunity will be made for white and colored men among the selected volunteer for service and training in the lines of communication organizations, which is necessary to form, and it is hoped that an adequate number will volunteer for this military but non- commissioned, but there will be both combattant and noncombattant organizations, just as they are white "organizations." Those who volunteer for this service can also take an early opportunity to go to France. Why Did They Prefer "Colored?" (From the New York News.) We learned that all of the advocates—we learned that all of the white and black, North and South—the word "Negro" as a race term have caught the full meaning of it at Houston, Texas. At the request of the Twenty-fourth infantry men themself, they decided to refer to them henceforth "colored" soldiers. They had been derided and nagged and goaded by the corrupted use of the word until forcible use of the word be one of their virtues. They had been ousted ousely and constantly referred to in the daily press not as American soldiers, or Americans, nor as "Uncle Bob" or in any other respectful term. The officers of the Twenty-fourth appealed to the word "colored" instead. With the word "colored," troopers or soldiers would have to be used. A kindlier feeling between the soldiers and the officers would inevitably result. They were right, but they were too late. Had the practice obtained prior to their coming in Houston, a different state militia might have ensured. We ask all participants to homes as to just how the practice of the word "Negro" to ponder this situation slowly. The troopers and their officers for the change should be a striking example of how the practice of the word "Negro" to ponder this situation slowly. Whatever the argument about making it respectable in the future, it decreases respect for the race today. It does no good today to use the practice of the word "Negro" then, for its use. Are you please be called a "Nigger?" Are you please to have a "Nigger" then or mother called a "Negress?" Then discontinue using it for you to be referred to as a worthwhile and your folk as people, insist on the use of the word "colored." Jim-Crow Camp Opposed. (Chicago Defender.) In the east Major General Wood of the United States army has started a movement for a separate military training school at New York City. The school is to be opened upon this with disfavor and oppose it. There should be no segregation in an army of the United States. If there should be a military training it would be men of the east who think especially officers and writers, should sound a death knell to this "Jim Crow" proposition. It will not be tolerated in the west and should not be in the east. In the east who think especially officers and nationalities serve on the same army and fight for the same flag because it does not segregate or discriminate. On the firing line we would have the number of the race should be looked for cooks, but as citizen soldiers, wearing the rank of equality, with no injustice or discrimination heralded in the case of war a number of southern men in their breasts to lead our men to the battlefield. In the past they have shown that they have proven themselves to be a lot of chain drivers in the war. In southern man command them. When you join a voluntary army be led by members of your own race and not southern officers. Be led by men of southern men, treat you like humans, and not southerners, who treat you like slaves. Must Have a Place in School (From the Chicago Postcard) Our naval training camp has every nationality under the sun, the flag to flout 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 if we are anywhere near there, we will be in a room with a mor and broom. Space is the boy of the Colored race in the school for which we are paying taxes We agree with the editor of the N. Y. News: It is bad enough to have segregated (or "jim crow") military training camps FORCED on us by the government, but infinitely worse to ASK for them.

(From the Amsterdam News.) Editor Amsterdam News: Sir: I cannot too heartily congratulate you on a recent editorial discouraging the use of the word "Negro." There is no greater delight enjoyed by the United States today than the spread of the unfortunate term. Why? They realize that it is the most potential factor at work at the present to bring both physical and mental segregation of the race to the masses. The term "Negro" is not on increase only because our speakers and writers, especially Do Bois and Washington feel that its repetition, ad nausea, is necessary to make use is on the increase only because it encrustes as applied to millions of colored people, but it is also alarmingly injurious, for the following reasons. It has never stood historically or in the present, anywhere in the world, for anything noble or uplifting. Most high-grade Africans repudiate it. In Africa and out of Africa it was to the higher types, but to Guinea, Sudanese and Senegambians only. c. Its derivatives, "Negroism," "Negrofy," and its compounds, Negrofy, Negro-monkey, are all clearly, in their associations, degrading. d. Its feminine form, "Negress," is justly and correctly used to define your wife and daughter and sweetheart, to favor the use of the masculine term. e. It has been the word used by the Southern whites for two centuries, when formally speaking or writing about an unworthy or criminal man in the race. For when he speaks of the worthy he invariably says "colored." f. It is not differentiated in the mind and thought of the whites from their favorite and generally used (among themselves) terms, "Nigro" and "Nigri." As stated by an eminent Japanese diplomat it has an unquestioned influence in cutting us off from the thought, sympathy and co-operation of the millions of colored Africans, Asians and Islanders of the Yonder world. Very truly yours, OWEN M. WALLER, M. D. 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 in public places; it is an excuse for disfranchising him; and it is an excuse for lynching him. Only one-tenth of one per cent of the colored people descent to Africa, and there is more right to call all colored people Negroes than to call all white people "Armenian."—Ex-Assistant United States General Wm. H. Lewis, Boston, Mass. Must Judge A Group by its Best. (From the Christian Register, Boston No one can be said to know any class of people who has not been in intimate and sympathetic relation with the best as well as the worst of the best. We compare many persons who live in the best and think they know the colored race, who have had no such contact, but who have come into intimate and sympathetic relations with large numbers of that race whom their Southern friends have never known; and of the second people we should any that the second people had people better than the first. They may have relations among them that the others do not know, or, knowing do not enter into and appreciate; they know capabilities by direct contact with the second which others are obliged only respect and sympathy can bring out; they know possibilities to which others by their very acquaintance are blinded. If those who know the colored race through the mass and by individuation merely could know what individuals are demonstrated in growing numbers, elect, and would be courageously candid with themselves, they would revise their judgments and possibly soften their prejudices. At any rate, they could to credit to those on whom they charge the value of colored race the values that come from knowing how many of that race are the GOD GIVE US MEN. God give us men!

Agreed to Be "Set Aalde." (From the Eagle, Washington, D. C.) No, the colored delegates to the M. E. General Conference, held at Sarasota, N.

To the Editor of the Pioneer Press: Now that the first colored contingent to our national army from Minnesota has gone to the cantonment at Camp Dodge, it is but natural, due to deep interest felt by all, there should be some passing review. The world has grown older and wiser since the days when Summer thundered in the Senate against the sin of human slavery, and the matchless eloquence of Wendell Phillips was heard, and there dawned the equal rights of all men under the American flag, and while our country is not moving on in peace it is a plenty—a picture that should inspire us with hope. But here is another picture: An old negro of the South stepping out into the world of civilization and light of this better day just mentioned, cast his eyes northward. He said to his son: "Go! there is no prejudice against you there, and I would have you educated as white men are! I would have you taught this new power they call the ballot! This youth, eager to unclasp the book of knowledge, and burning to e'evate his people above the reproach of ignorance, without which their citizenship was but a mere mockery and a farce, little thought that any one could ever bear him from American citizenship, privilege. But, alas, such conditions have been and are still lamentably in evidence. We have held no bitterness, however, and in our spotsponse and furnishing this army quota there is to be found just the material for the results this old negro of the South (now dead). Desired and dreamed of it, proves us in the vanguard of civilization, desirous of perpetuating democracy for all time, and our cup of joy is overflowing. Despite the fact it has been practically impossible for us to quench our thirst at soda fountains, satisfy hunger at fashionable cafes, and even relieve the stricken conscience at ultra fashionable churches, this is no time for development, and adjustment of those wrongs. To have from an abbyance until victory is otherwise purchased upon our banners should be, and is most generally our slogan. Responding without affection, ostentation or show (at this time) is our suggestion, and no greater, more indelible and lasting stimulus, coupled with sacrifice, could have been shown from a local st-n'dnot than in the send-off by Louis W. Hill. THOS. H. JONES. OUR PATRIOTIC PEOPLE HOLD A MONSTER FAREWELL TESTIMONIAL AND RECEPTION. For the Minnesota Contingent of Colored Men Drafted and Send Them to Fort Dodge With a Patriotic Parade That Has Never Been Surpassed. The big testimonial that was given for our drafted men of Pilgrim Baptist church and that was thought to be so grand, was completely over-shadowed by the Farewell Reception, in honor of our soldier boys, inspired by the patriotism, loyalty and generosity of Mr. Louis W. Hill, president of the Great Northern railway, that was held at Union Hall last Monday night, when patriotism, loyalty and generosity were into the hall, a large majority being compelled to stand during the splendid program. At 6:30 P. M. there was a "chicken dinner" in the gymnasium provided for the drafted men, their mothers, sisters, sweethearts and wives by Mr. Louis W. Hill, prepared under the direction of Mr. L. A. Melker, chef of Mr. Hill's private car. Mr. Hill and a few personal friends were at the table and he acted as chairman of a little impromptu program. He made a short speech in which he told of the high esteem in which he held the men on his car. Among other things, Mr. Hill said that these men worked with him and he with them and that he could not get along without them. From the history given by Mr. Hill of the men and himself upon their private care for the past thirty-five years, it develops that during all of that time not one of them had resigned or been discharged and that those not now in the service had died in the service. He called upon L. A. Melker, Louis Liverpool and Charles Collier, who responded most happily. They had such a splendid time that they forgot about the crowd that had gathered upstairs and when they went up into the main auditorium it was with much difficulty that they entered, their appearance be- LOUIS W.

Hole had been furnished by a band of eight pieces under the leadership of W. A. Hilary, and the cites were over, dancing was enjoyed until 1:30 A. M., when the biggest demonstration ever held in the hall was brought to a close. Each of the drafted men were presented two packages of tobacco by Mr. G. T. Williams, the representative of the Leggett & Meyers Tobacco Co. Tuesday morning the people from all the organizations various organizations assembled at the Popcorn where all were supplied with flags of various sizes, and they formed a parade containing over 1,500 persons and escorted the men to the Union Depot, music being furnished by the Glacier Park and Northern Pacific bands, the parade made a splendid dance, the cheerers achieved by the thousands who lined the streets. At the depot the scene was impressive as the crowd while writing for the train bearing the Minneapolis contingent, prayed and sang spiritual and patriotic songs. Never before has such a scene been witnessed at the depot. Finally the train from Minneapolis with its 64 men backed in and the 41 St. Paul men entrained and the final good-byes were said and the train started for Fort Dodge, leaving many aching hearts behind. It was a scene that will never be forgotten by those who took part in it. Testimonial and Parade. State Representative George Nordlin of the Eighth Ward and a member of the draft Board, was a conspicuous figure in connection with the parade. The committee that had charge of the testimonial and parade comprised: Atty. W. T. Francis, chairman; Forl Defective Page C. Walker, secretary; B. L. White, John Brown, J. W. Kelley, A V. Hall, J. W. Cleary, Atty, Hammond Turner, Rev. A. H. Lealtad, Rev. D. E. Beasley, Rev. B. N. Murrell, Rev. J. M. Henderson, Rev. G. W. Camp, L. A. Melker, Chas. Collin, C. E. Jones, C. H. Miller. The committee was ably assisted by Mr. W. R. Mills, advertising manager of the Great Northern Ry. C. H. JACKSON. The attention of the readers of THE APEAL is called to the fact that Mr. C. H. Jackson is a special salesman at the splendid establishment of the AMERICAN HOUSE FURNISHING CO. 22 East Seventh street, and stands ready to demonstrate to you his ability as a furniture salesman if the people will only show their appreciation of his holding the position by insisting that he serve them when they call at the American to buy furniture. This may lead to the promotion of some colored man to the position of salesman. When you wish to buy house furnishing to the American House furnishing Co. ask for Mr. Jackson and thus support him in doing his bit in trying to make good for the race. Mr. Jackson as a furniture man "knows his stuff." ANNOUNCEMENT. Liberty Bonds will be kept for our depositors free of charge.

And the Second Liberty Loan. The American Telephone and Telegraph Company and its Associated Companies forming the Bell Telephone System have announced a subscription in behalf of themselves and their employees for $5,000,000 of the Second Liberty Loan. This subscription is to be allotted to localities or sections of the country as nearly as possible in proportion to the quotas assigned by the Treas- AMERICAN TELEPHONE & TELEGRAPH CO. LOCAL LONG DISTANCE TELEPHONE BELL SYSTEM AND ASSOCIATED COMPANIES ury Department to the various federal reserve districts, so that each such district will get credit for its proportionate share of the total sum. The actual subscription will be made in each federal reserve district by the Associated Bell Company operating in such district. The Bell Telephone System also subscribed $5,000,000 to the First Liberty Loan, but owing to the over-subscription on that issue only a part of it was accepted. Arrangements have been made whereby employees of the Bell System may subscribe for Liberty Loan installments during the coming year. FEDERAL REVENUE TAX. From and after November 1, 1917, under the provisions of the Revenue Bill passed by Congress and approved October 3, 1917, each message or conversation transmitted over any telephone for which the charge of fifteen cents or more, is subject to a tax of five cents. The law requires the telephone company to collect this tax from the person paying for such message or conversation, in addition to the regular charge therefor. The law applies not only to all messages on which the initial rate is fifteen cents or more per message, but also to all messages on which the total charge, including overtime, amounts to fifteen cents or more. Thus, while a call at the initial rate of five or ten cents bears no tax, should the conversation be prolonged for a period which would make the aggregate charge fifteen cents or more, it is subject to the tax of five cents.

It is a patriotic duty, therefore, at this time, to keep the home and the home life up to the highest point of efficiency. No home can do its best without a piano. You need it for the education of the children. You need it for the family life, to keep up good cheer, to make home really home. You need it that you may sing the nation's songs, thereby to keep burning the fires of patriotism. Can you imagine a patriotic people without the inspiration of patriotic music?
