HERE IS A GOOD RULE TO OBSERVE.

every year and urges them to order no
more th a n th e y can eat. Were this
rule observed in all th e re sta u ra n ts and
hotels in th e land, a greater conserva
tion of food would occur th a n m any
realize.
CORN IS RING AGAIN.
Corn has come back to its own. I t ’s
crown has been restored.
The United States forecast of the o u t
put this year, th re e billion bushels,
ought to make th e livestock world smile.
D enm ark and the rest of the neutrals,
and our allies need food for th e live
stock. Our corn crop will help to keep
th e beeves and horses on their feet.
The whole world will benefit from the
energy of th e A m erican'farm er.

is an appetizing food for the hum a n race

LAYS DOWN HIS TOGA.
Ja nie s W. (lerard, formerly a m b a ssa
dor from th e U nited States to G erm any,
has resigned. C ircum stances over which
he had control, lost him his job.
But a t its best, the job in Berlin which
he held down du rin g those crucial tim e t
was not attractive. He was in a delicate
position, but when put to the various
tests by G e rm a ny and th e United State«
he tyas fnllv com petent to meet them in
a m a n n e r satisfactory to the U nited
States. li e w as in G erm any all of the
disquieting hours prior to the d e c la ra
tion of war, and his conduct had to be
overly circumspect lest he make a move
th a t would inimical to his government,
l i e aerved his country well, did G erard,
and we have no doubt but this govern
m e n t will m ake use of his services again
when an opening presents itself.
TRAMPS.
There is no excuse from tra m p s in
th e U nited States.
E very m an who is physically able and
desirous, can obtain work—work of
some kind, by which Le can earn his
own living. The American vagabond
who moves from city to city, stealing
rides upon railroad ‘reight tra in s, or
w ho perchance, may walk from town to
tcfwn in thickly settled com m unities,
should not be encouraged bv th e house
keepers when he applies to th e back
door for som ething to eat.
T he vagabonds are too lazy to work.
They live off th e labor of ^other people.
E very person who contributes to the
t r a m n a t th e back door is guiltv of e n
couraging a class of peopls who, wsre
»bey off th e e a rtb , would add to the
value of the world. Thev are merely
idlers and
loafers, and oftentimes
thieves. They are dangerous rh a ia c -
ters to be allowed to roam a t large.
T hey c o n trib u te nothing to th e com
m unity. They are consum ers and non-
producer«. T here ia no excu»e for their
living and th e best way to wipe out the
t r a m p ia to force him to work and earn
h i i living as honest people do. Do not
