When thousands of men with
familifs t) support, and who
draw a daily wage of 2.00 and
up are required to pay present
outrageous prices fur flour and
sugar, potatoes and meat and all
other necessities of living, there
is something radically wrong in
the body politic; there is "some
thing rotten'' in the United
StateS,
It is no time, however, to al
low fear to consume our souls
and to eat the heart and courage
out of us. It is no time to be
come hysterical and to paint
black mental pictures of famine
and woe. It is no time to at
tempt to befog the real issue by
pillling palaver about backyard
gardening and the conservation
of dandelion greens. To plant
back yards to vegetables at a
time like this is well; it will help
many of us over the hard places
until the real trouble is adjusted.
To eat greens in lieu of some
thing we like better but can't
get, at: present prices, is com
mendable; it beats going hungry.
IJtit when we attempt to con
vince oui selves ami others that
such methods will solve the liv
ing problem we are showing
about the same degree of intelli
gence that an ostrich shows
when he hides his head in the
sand to escape his pursuer.
The real cause of the present
high cost of living is SPECULA
TION, and SPECULATION in
Pood st nil's at a time like this

in which the lives and happiness
of countless American citizens
are iiM'd as chips ami the wel
fare of a hundred million people
is cast to the winds that a few
dollar marked speculators may
wax richer.

try is facing the talk of these
alarmists is puerile, piffling. In
many minds it raises doubts of
their sincerity, it causes won
der as to the source of their in
spiration. Are they kicking up
a dust in order to befog the real
issue. Are they advocating a
diet of dandelion greens for the
people of Morrow county who
produce so abundanly of wheat
and beef and wool in order that
the takers of profits on flour at
the rate of seven or eight dollars ;
a barrel can have terrapin and
champaigne and give $100 tips
to the head waiter?
The United Stales is now en
gaged in a war that may be pro
longed through months or years
and war always calls for sacrifice
for most of the people of the na
tions engaged. 'For a few, in
cluding food speculators, it offers
opportunity to amass much
money at the expense of the
rest of the nation. There is but
one way to make patriots out of
these plunderers and that is to
put them out of business and to
do this the government must
stop gambling in food and take
over the matter of price fixing
and distribution and in doing
this the government at Washing
ton will have taken the greatest
step towards national prepared-
n6u3 ytt nf templed.
The best preparedness any na
tion can have is a well nourished,
vigorous, self-reliant people, and
no half-ration program ever pro
duced such. Sacrifices we make;
every pound of food we can
spare from our own needs-not
our extravagances-should be
sent to help feed our European
allies. Put when it comes to a
question of food our first duty is
not to them. Our tVrst duty is
to our ow n county and State; to
our neighbors, our families and
ourselves.

Grass on the Lawn.
Grass seeds germinate in from four
teen to eighteen days. A quart of seeds
Is sufficient to cover 300 square feet-
15 by 20 feet. Five to six bushels are
required per acre.
Do not sow grass seeds In hot, dry
weather, particularly in July or Au
gust.
Foa trlvalia is good for shady lawns
under trees.
Festuca rubra Is most suitable for
hard wear and for dry or sandy soils.
Sharp sea sand applied lightly over
lawns In the autumn that is, over
lawns on clay or loam encourages the
growth of fine grasses.
Lawns that are frequently watered
need more fertilizers than those that
are not, as the water washes away
much plant food. New York Sun.

Glengarry' "Traon."
How startling was the difference in
the customs of the English and the
Scots even less than a century ago is
shown in the story of the way iu which
the famous highland chief, Alastir
Macdonell, of Glengarry frightened
George IV. out of his wits. In 18:
Glengarry was one of a party of Scot
tish nobles and gentlemen who ban
queted "the first gentleman of Europe"
in Holyrood palace. Colonel Macdonell
was the last chief to wear the full
highland costume, and when the com
pany sat down to dinner he, according
to custom, placed a brace of loaded
pistols by tyls plate. The king started
up in alarm and was persuaded to re
main in the room only on the assurance
that Glengarry meant no treason Lon
