THE PRICE OF VICTORY
By FRANKLIN K. LANE, Secretary of the Interior
What Is Victory worth? What would we have given this time last year
to have been assured of Victory? What pledge would we have not made? And
now that our men have won will we hesitate to pay the bill? They paid, those
boys of the Argonne, in blood and life. They will pay, many of them, through
all their long lives In suffering and in weakness, "very soldier that we see is
a challenge to our hearts and to our pockets. They will not be a reproof. Their
eyes will never say that wo are, what they never were, quitters. We. too, can
carry on. Generous they wero and generous we will be. Our pride we will
prove by thanksgiving, not In words but in dollars loaned to Uncle Sam to ,iay
for bringing the boys back, for the guns that were never used, for the ships
that were not sunk, for the care of the men who did not die, "or the rebuilding
of the men who almost "went West."
All the wise men said It will be the fall of '19 before the Kaiser will be
driven into his own country. Our money would have gone throughout the year
to make that hope good. Hut the Hun was driven back. He lost heart and
cried "Kamerad!" a year before the promised time. And the Kaiser fled, a
fugitive from a beaten nation and so short a time since he had been in part
nership with "Gott"! How many Victory Bonds was it worth to hear ttV.t
news? Victory is not ours until we have earned it, paid for it and got the
receipt in the peace treaty, with a guarantee that we shall hold what we have
won the right to live In peace. Your Liberty Bond paid for the gun that
drove him into exile. And your Victory Bond will make sure that he will not
come back.
OLD BOXER DIES ON FIELD
Dick Buroe, Once Well Known In This
Country Met His Death Fight
ing in France.
Late rrlvate Itlchard Bulge of Ihe
First Surrey rifles never wus a quit
ter, nnd, despite the fact that he was
at the half century mark, be enlisted
and died the death of a soldier. He
wus once the lightweight champion of
England, and was born December
19, 1805.
Dick Iiurge was a nnme well known
to the tight fans on both sides of the
Atlantic HO years or so ago, chiefly
because of his remarkable buttle with
Kid Luvlgne for the lightweight cham
pionship of the world. Dick wus sev
eral incites taller than the Saginaw
Kid, und he had a considerable ad
vantage in weight, but, much to his
surprise und that of the English funs,
he was knocked out iu the seventeenth
round. He gave ri good account of
himself before be fell, however, anil
there were times when the Kid had
reason to feur that he hud taken on
too good u man. After Burgi- quit the
ring he becuuie u light promoter. Thul
was in 19(H). He enlisted as n volun
teer In the British army in 1915 and
served with the colors for three years.

SAVE 16,000,000 BUSHELS
OF WHEAT THAT FORMERLY
WAS LOST IN THRESHING
Rulers With Business Instincts.
At the outset of his Imperial career
the grandfather of the former German
kaiser, Frederick William, owed his
accumulation of money to his com
mercial dealings. One of his commer
cial undertakings was to start milk
rounds, which did exceedingly well, In
spite of being curried on sub rosa, for
the German courtiers found that the
imperial favor wus dependent upun
their patronizing the Imperial dairy.
In this way the old emperor created
n huge mill; monopoly in vurious cities,
and reaped a correspondingly large
profit. Kaiser, Wilhelm himself had
keen commercial Instincts, und had a
finger In most of the big German un
dertakings. In German; It was cur
rently reported that Bnllln was mere
ly the figure-head of the North Ger
man Lloyd line of steamships, und
that the knlser was the real man ut
the helm, and the same thing was said
of many other money-making concerns.
Farmers, Urged by Food Administra
tion, Provide Seven Extra Loaves
of Bread for Every American.
By adopting cleaner threshing meth
ods and by literally combing harvest
fields to gather grain formerly wast
ed, threshermen and farmers of the
United States this year saved fully
10,000,000 bushels of wheat, estimated
as equivalent to about seven one-pound
loaves of bread for every person In
the country. This result, accompanied
by corresponding savings of barley,
oats, rye and other grains, is shown by
reports from 33 grain states to the U.
S. Food Administration. Other states,
although not prepared to furnish defi
nite figures of conservation in the
grain fields, report greatly reduced
harvest losses. '
This rural food saving achievement,
accomplished In scarcely six months'
time, was In direct response to re
quests by the Food Administration,
which asked farmers and threshermen
to reduce harvest losses from about
3'A per cent. the estimated average
In normal times to the lowest possi
ble minimum. Country grain thresh.
Ing committees carried Into every
grain growing community the official
recommendations for accomplishing
the results desired.
In numerous Instances drivers of
racks with leaky bottoms were sent
from the fields to repair their equip
ment and frequently bad order thresh
ing machines were stopped until the
cause of waste was removed. But In
proportion to the numbe$ of persons
engaged in gathering the nation's grain
crop, cases of compulsion were com
paratlvely rare. The Food Adminis
tration freely attributes the success of
the grain threshing campaign to pa
triotic service by farmers, thresher
men and their crews, incioentauy
grain growers of the United States are
many millions of dollars "in pocket"
as a result of the grain saved.
