There are cold days ahead for us un less we take time by the forelock and use the warmer days of spring and sum mer to prepare as, we never have be fore for an approaching winter.

It will be a test of our rugged individualism, for the first time regi mented into a collective mass with spec ial privileges to none and equal privi leges to all. At least the plan of ration ing has that purpose in mind and it is difficult to visualize other plans where by a fair distribution of essential pro ducts could be accomplished. As it is there may be unavoidable suffering, but in the main there should be less hunger than prevails, under normal conditions. Having experienced neither sensa tion, it is beyond us to state which is the most desirable death bv starvation or death by freezing. Either method is final and we are not disposed to dis cuss their relative merits. It is debat able which is the most important, or 1 1 Jl 1- 1 1 r i .1 stringent measures to curb the usual dog nui sance during gardening season. This year, more than any year in the history of the country, the people are confronted with a serious food prob lem. We will have to raise our own ve getables just as far as possible. Dogs, being what they are, are not aware of the situation and they will continue to dig and trample garden stuff just as in the past, unless they are prevented from running at large. So, if you want to keep your dog, the soundest advice seems to be to keep him at home. If he gets, away and roams about the neigh borhood he is apt to not return. And a collar and license will not save him., . -o- HAVE YOU AN EXTRA LOT? ATTE NITON Dog Owners Due to the extreme urge and necessity for Victory Gardens, dog owners are request ed to prevent their dogs from running at large in the city this spring and summer. When complaint has been made to city police against any dog, whether licensed or unlicensed, the police will give the owner 5 days notice to keep the dog off the streets and if this notice is not com plied with, the police are instructed to dispose of such dog. Also, all cow and horse permits must be renewed by paying the recorder the $1.00 feu if the privilege is to be contin- ues. By Order of the City Council Garden time is at hand, particularlv which should be considered first in the or tne hardier vegetables, and with it present situation with its relation to comes, the problem of securing ground the preservation of life and promotion by non-owners to plant vegetable seeds of the war fuel or food.
