OrKanliation in the Twelfth District,
"the people of California. Oregon
Waxliliigton. Idaho. Nevada. I'tah ami
part of Artiona have added that much
to the workliiK capital of the nation
and tbe West out of their savings, not
to mention the treniuudous itim the)
haw saved by purchasing Liberty
tlonds "
Of course many persons who bought
Thrift and War Savings Stamps have
cashed In their securities with amax
Ing shortsightedness, but the wiser
purchasers are holding their stamps
until they maintain their full maturity
value. "Those persons who have
cashed In their War Stumps or their
Liberty Bonds and have speut the
money have lost twice the amount they
saved because, no matter what they
bought, they paid nearly twice as much
for It as they would have paid less,
than Bve years from now," said Smith.
"Prices have risen more than 100 per
cent since 1914. They will drop at
least 50 per cent In the next few years
and will eventually get back to the
1914 level. Now Is the time to save."
Smith, who is a successful financier,
said: "We have high prices because
of the expansion of'credit and conse
quent Inflation. We won't have low
prices until the people contract tbe
currency by saving." Save by Invest

AMERICA'S LOW PERCENTAGE
Only 12 Per Cent of Present Mileage ,
I Improved Little Built for
Heavy Traffic. I
The American public, though fast
lieconillig awakened to ndvnittngos to
be enjoyed by Improved roads, may
not realise the Immense effort which
must lie exerted to catch up with Eu
ropoan nations' highway systems.
When Germany entered the wnr In
lt14, Prussia alone had 73.000 mile
of hard-surfaced highway. In pro
portion to the (die of the two coun
tries, the Vnlted States would need
to have l.(tl 1.914 miles. The present
rond mileage In the states Is 2,oOO.O(0.
of which 12 per cent Is Improved and
only oue-qiinrter of 1 per cent con
structed for heavy -traffic.
GETTING RID OF ROAD TAR
Must Be Attended To Promptly or
Unsightly Streaks and 8poU Will
Be the Result
CnleRi washed off promptly with
soap and water, road tnr will quickly
hHrden on car, leaving unsightly
streaks ami xpots. There are several
good ways of removing It, however.
Due consists In the application of but
ter or oleomargarine which will soften
the tar without Injuring the varnNh.
Another good solvent Is cocoa butter,
which Is used in the theatrical profes
sion for removing grease paint. This
can be purchased at drug stores, and
Is a harmless solvent of all kinds of
oil and grease, as well as tar.

The "Biblers."
The Cwho-Slovaks. having attain
ed national Independence, attain also
the privilege of reading the Bible In
the national tongue, so the British Bi
ble society Is planning to print Czech
Bibles urcliiisalile for SO cents euch.
Austrinns and Italians have long
called the Czechoslovaks "Biblers."
The Czech Bible was first printed In
1475, but when the Czechs came under j
Austria the printing and rending of ;
the Bible In their own language was
forbidden. Copies of the Czech Bible
were printed In other lands and smug
gled in, but were burned If discovered.
Kcuigious persecution, dating mica i
the time of John Hus, the Bohemian
reformer of tbe fifteenth century, com
bined with political persecution to
make the Czech Bible rare, but all the
more highly valued. Although. In mod
ern days, the Austrian government
permitted the circulation of the
Czech Bible In the army, It continued
to prohibit the circulation among the
Czechs at home."
When Fuller's Earth Is Not Available
Borax May Be Used With Sat
isfactory Results.
When slipping develops In the
clutch of tbe cone type It Is usually
caused by oil on the leather facing.
The usuai method of curing this trou
ble Is to sprinkle fuller's earth on the
leather, but If this powder happens
cot to be available borax may be used
with satisfactory results, and In the
absence of either the carbide dust or
lime residue from an acetylene gen
erator will prove a good eaougb substitute.
Americans Eat Little Mutton.
In Great Britain about 22 per cent
of all meatj consumed Is mutton. In
France It Is about 11 per cent. In
Canada It Is not quite 7. and in the
United States Is only about 3V4 per
cent. Last year (1918) tbe consump
tion of dressed meat (lard excluded)
In the United States averaged 150
pounds per person, of which only 5
were mutton and lamb.
The British, the Canadians, and the
French all similar types of people
and having habits of life similar to
Americans use less meat than Amer
icans do, but a much larger proportion
comes from sheep. The United States
gets Its meat principally from cattle
and hogs. Pork consumption Is about
14 times, and beet consumption about
13 times, as great as our use of mut
ton and lamb. These are the annual
averages for last yeyr.
THE PITH OF IT
President W.lson. In tackling the
high cost of living, raid:'
"On'y by Increasing production and
by rigid economy and saving by the
people caa hope for largs decreases
In the burdensome cost of living which
Dow weighs us down."
Despite the fact that the Department
of Justice Is scurrying about Investi
gating high prices and throwing profit
eers in jail, tbe President's cure for
high prices Is the only one. He has
with him In bis opinion tbe best eco
nomists In America and Europe. It Is
most elemea'ary. eocnomlcs that as
long as tbe public persists la Its spend
ing "jag," buying uunecessaries and
fastening upoa Industry a demand for
more than industry can produce, ex
orbitant prices will prevail,
Thrs Is only one wsy out. That Is
the President's way. The people have
got to save. In order to save tbey
must do without blch priced luxuries
and live simply. They must Invest
their savings that the means of more
and greater production may be accumu
lated. Econo-r.lsts knoT that the Treasury
Department Is doing more than the
Department of Justice Is to bring down
prices. Toe lowly Thr.ft Stamp and
War Savings Etamp Is the weapon.
Buy them and hold them. Put them
Erst on the family budget. They bring
per cent Interest compounded every
three months. Get the habit of buying
them every pay day. They will solve
your high cost of living problem.
