Your heart tlirllliid, too, to ttmt news, which now has been repeated many times.

You can wake inihnllilii the contin uation of their deeds of valor and heiolmu. You can help theni cut an end to the need for such sacrifice and liur'l nli 1 1 n as tin y have been com pelled to make. MAKE DEEDS OF VALOR POSSIBLE You uiu tho liiHtriiiiiuuU choseu loi i great work, and llio tlmo for service la here. Tliu (iovenniioiil Ih aklng you oine more to bring out your hidden trean ur tho dollars you have been rare fully imttluK away for noun- special nid. Tho rail for the Knurl h I .Hi orty Loan hail been, sounded. Uur country's ballingo to our patriotism has been volri'd once more. Oregon women have a record for loyal reniKinmi to all of tin! previous Loans. Their has bun a genurous reply to tho country's war need. Tho dally Huts of tinmen of Amer ican boys who have given their all for thnlr country have found Oregon's sons among tho number. It Ih for mch as those, and for tliu things for which they fought and full, that the aid of tho folks at homo Is sought. Ours la a lesser part, but it Is an es sential part. PATRIOTISM CHALLENGES The reiKirt of what women all over tho United States did for the Third Liberty Loan Is an lusplrlng page In tho history of united war effort. From east to went, from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico the story Is the same. Ev erywhere the women came forward, bringing their dollars for the Uian. What they will do In this Fourth Liberty 1-oan will be no lend ciedit able. The time for questioning Is pant. The day of speculation Is gone. Here and now, with one aim and one purposu, you women of Oregon In line with your sinters from all over the land, will march lu the army behind the kuakUiud boya over yonder, fur nishing the funds not alone for the successful carrying on of the war -that we are pledged to do,- but for the speedy complete defeat of the enemy. Money means power In this struggle between the right and wrong. Dollar spell success In tho conflict for right eousness. Yours is a vital part in the trufglo, women of Oregon, the "thing worth while" Is yours to do NOW.

Our savings in cerealsout cf a short crop amounted to 154,900,000 bushels; all of which was shipped to Europe. We increased our meat and fat shipments 844,600,000 pounds. This was America's "box from home" to our army abroad and the civilians and military forces of the Allied nations. YANKEE DOUGHBOYS 1.5 !' .1 Kir n - - .'"..iti t E w"' i.

"Here are many allied officers and men," says the Kaiser. "If they were not wounded, they might dodge our glorious air planes as bomCs are dropped. Being wounded, they cannot move, and so they are killed in their beds or in the air as their beds are blown out from under them. "Gott being with us, let us blow up all the Red Cross hospitals we can." So the "Greatest Mother in the World" remains a shining mark for the "Superbeast's" efficient elimination of his enemies. Since Allied airplanes have become regular visitors to Gr rman cities, the Kaiser has discovered such bombing to be a violation of international law.

SHARE OUR SUGAR WITH THE ALLIES British Get Two Pounds a Month. French Pound and Half, Italians One Pound. GERMAN SUPPLY PLENTIFUL All Nations Permit Use of Sweetening tor Home Preserving, Purposes. America's new sugar ration of two pounds a in. mill t"'r P-rsun Is eijulia ble wli.'ii cuiiiiiared with the sugar ra tion fii forced by ri;id governmental order in Kngliiml, France slid Italy, na tions wiih which we are sharing sujoir. Lach Allied nation In the mutter uf sugar coiistiiniitloii is siiuring uu Dear est possible equal terms the hardflLips Imposed by ivtitly altered conditions lu the wi.rld s'lL-ar situation. Formerly clntHl an a luxury, aueur is now a war time esueniial. The fair and just division of this essential Is 111 the hands of the various Allied food eont rollers. The Lniled Strttes Fond Administra tion has asked this nation to observe l voluntary sumt ration of two pounds per person a month. In the ofher ciuintries at war with Germany susir Is one of The scarce articles on every menu whether In the households of both rich and poor, or in the lintels. England today has s sugar ration of two pounds per month per person. In France Hie ration Is n pound and a half and In Italy it Is one pound a month. And the prices In allied coun tries are from two to throe times as hhih as In Ainerlcn If you go to a hotel in England or France these days and onlor tes or coffee they nerve absolutely no supir with It. If you want sujmr yea must hrliii; it with yoti. In Entrlnnd It Is allowable to use one-seventh of nn ounce of susnr in the preparation of each luncheon. In France many persons carry little sac charine tablets about with them for use In hotels ami In England rich and poor must take their suisir with them If they wish to have sweetened tea whUe visiting friends. Pefore the war started France had C2.",tXiO acres devoted to super produc tion. F.y 1917 the French sucar acre age hail decreiisoil to 1S0.OOO acres. Today the French man or woman with u siij-'ur card luis no assurance whatever that he or she will be able to actunUy huy suKur. To buy It, one must first flnil It. Italy Has "State Sugar." Especially drastic regulations povern the use of sugar In Italy. Its manu facture, distribution and sale are close ly controlled, and In part actually taken oer by the state. Saccharine Is permitted to be sold and used as a substitute for sugar and the covormuent manufactures a mix ture of saccharine nnd sugnr called "State Supar," which Is lnrgely used. German Sugar Ration Adequate. Oer'mnny, before the war, produced n grent surplus of sugar and exported larpe quantities. Today the Germans have virtually gone eut of the export business, but havs plenty of cheap sugar for home use. Wholesale prices prevalent In the Allied nations, according to Informa tion received by the United States Food Administration are as follows: ! Enpliiiid, 10 cents a pound; Frauce, 12 cents : Italy, 2t? cents. ! While these lilyh prices are being I paid abroad the American wholesale price Is belia; held at "Vi cents.

AID IMG WAR Shiploads of Bacon a More Item in Procession of Food to Fighters, Civilians Nowhere has appeared a more suo eln't reminder of the enormous re sources of the American faun und the farmers Instant readiness to meet any war ileiiiands than a brief dis patch from lAindon recently announe Invc the rtU8i;nsion of the ration limit oa bucoti. Owlnp to tbo accumulation of storks of 97.0fi0.00i) pounds of bacon from America, the dispatch said, the ration lriK of bacon would bo abandoned for the time. Since this enormous stock was for civilian roipii i fluents and probably a much greater quantity had been safe ly landed for allied army needs It does not require cftreme Imagination to visualize the I0113 procession of car-;o ships which has steamed acron lth this one item of the food sup ply. All the car-ro space of from siffht to twelve freighters of P.veraKO size . would be required to transport 97, OOfl.oou pounds. WHEAT GROWN DESPITE SABOTAGE Despite the liiiriiius of grain elo ators, the torpedoing of wheat ships, and sabotage und arson in the trraln fields of the country, the American fanner has gloriously played his war part- by producing sufllciently big crops to feed the allied world, as his sons have biouht fear in to the hearts of the enemy at Cantteny and Chateau Thierry and In the Hhelms 8oIssods battle. Now we read that others besides von Kuehlmann believe that Germany cannot win by force of arms, as those Germans not dupes of the propaganda-fed German press already knew that England could not be starved by von Tirplts' ruthless sub marines. (Jut far from belnf satisfied wita this major part in winning the war, the fanner has played a liberal part In financing the stniKKlo. Last spring, with sued and implements to buy, and all the pre harvest expense of wares and maintenance, not an agri cultural district in Ul west failed to meet or oversubscribe Its quota of the Third Liberty Ioan. FARMERS FIRST IN LIBERTY LOAN Oregon, almost purely an agricul tural and stock-raising state, was the first in the district to announce Us quota exceeded. The farming districts were uni formly more prompt In meeting their assigned obligation than were the metropolitan districts where tanks and taclories were concerned. V, i:h the coming of the Fourth Liberty Loan, which will overshadow any prevw. js tinancial triumph of the l'nije-1 States by two to one, the funnei s part should bo relatively eask-r since he now has turned his maimed ciopa into cash. The Fourth Liberty Loan, calling for twice as much as any of the previous war-funds, all of which were eMxfta ht the country's history, will show the United States really buck ling down to business. 4TH LOAN CALLS FOR FULL EFFORT Hespite our present training in thinking in nothing less than six figures, the Fourth Liberty Loan is a huge sum and will require a long, strong pull from every citizen If It is to he accomplished In three weeks, from September 28 to October 19, allotted. Tl.i -re is no more doubt of the ful fillment of the loan on schedule time than there is that the American army will throw von llindeubiirg and Lud endorff back across the Uhine. Ami as surely as tens of thousands of the bravest of American youth will lose their lives In the fierce combats in which tho Hun will be forced backward out of France, just so surely will the raising of the great Liberty Ixians not be accomplished . without every American marshalling the last dollar of his resources, and abating every unnecessary expendi ture. "Six months of war among the great powers will bankrupt the world," said economists before Au gust. 1914. Now, with the Allied Powers pre paring to end the war in its sixth year, the least of their worries is nuance. Make your Fourth Liberty Loan sub scription a heavy one oversubscrip tions will make, the American army that much stronger In moiale. Can you Imagine the feeling of the boys at the front if the Fourth Lib erty Loan is uudersubscribed? And their corresponding elation at s smashing oversubscription? lly the way, can t you stretch that Fourth Liberty Loan subscription to a little larger si.e. Every dollar makes them hollar Buy Liberty Bonds. Bring "Foucth" your savings Buy Liberty Bonds. Billions for Defense or Billions for Indemnities. Knock the Helm out of Wllhelm Liberty Bonds. A little for bonds or all for tha Kaiser.
