CUT OUT WASTE, BUY A BOND A question that will have to be answered after the war; is, shall Germany be compelled to pay for the ships be longing to neutrals sunk, by her? It would seem that under the laws as they were before Germany made new ones to suit herself, this would have to be done. As a matter of fact .these sinkings were sufficient cause for war, and were it not for the weakness of the nations so treated by Germany, war would have followed. Once Uncle Sam's family has been an expensive one for the old gentleman to raise and care for, and it is only within the past year either he or its members have realized how unnecessarily expensive it has been. Just now the mem bers of the family, or such "of them as have any regard for the good old Uncle's welfare are doing all they can, or think they are, to help economize and not only help meet the bills but also to cut down expenses by reducing con sumption in all lines. With a million or perhaps two or three of them, more than 100,000,000 members of the family, it will be readily seen that it will require no great saving for each individ ual to make a large aggregate. Within a day or two the third liberty loan drive will begin for the raising of $3,000,000,000 to be used in carrying on ine war. nub sounds like a vast sum, and it is, for billions are figures that mind cannot grasp or realize unless they are put in some form that can be understood. And yet these three billions of dollars represent but the total sum that would be accumulated by the saving of eight cents a day by each person. Ten cents a day does not seem like a heavy tax to be levied on grown persons, yet the Nation's meat bill before the war was less than this, amounting to about two and a half billion dollars or about six and a half cents a day pei" capita. It is not expected that the meat bill will be cut out for that matter any other one article pf food, but that much more than the six or even the ten cents a day can be saved is undeniable. While part of this sav ing will come from curbing of appetite the greater part will come from the elimination of waste. Americans have always had such an over abundance of everything that economy in foodstuffs has never been practiced, simply because there was no occasion for it. We grew more than we could use cr sell, and hence we learned generation after another to waste. It is because of this national habit of wasting that the margin of saving now possible is so great. The moral of all which is that the proper thing to do now is to help our good eld Uncle in this time of his need by saving in every possible way, especially by doing away with waste and using all the savings in the purchase of liberty bonds. If you have not already saved, buy the bond as a starter and save to meet the payments on it. Because a man or woman is- old does not mean that they must walk along bent over and supported with a cane. A man can be aa vigorous and healthy at eighty as at twenty if he aids tho organs of the body in performing their functions.

Just what the amount of destruction Germany has been guilty of will not be known until the war has ended. However the loss in ships and cargoes to date due to submarines, is estimated at from $7,000,000,000 to as high as $11,000,000, 000. It will be larger in proportion tothe length of the war. However whatever it is because the larger part of it was destroyed in contravention to the laws of nations Germany should be- made to pay for it. WALK ERECT AT EIGHTY YOUR HEALTH By ANDREW F. CUR11IER, M. D. Chronic Catarrh. f The strike of carpenters employed on government work in the east and this while the fate of the world hangs in the balance in France, is a crime serious enough to require the death punishment. While millions of young Americans are offering their lives, these worse than slack ers are demanding higher w?ges. No only this but they are delaying government work and to that extent are giving aid and comfort to the enemy. It is suggested that all who are within the draft age and w,ho. have been given a different rating on account of their employment be re stored to class one and at once sent to the training camps and then to the front. For the others they should be treated as enemies and interned until after the war. With April came warmth and sunshine and these mean it is time to get ready for work in that war garden. Last year these war gardens were estimated to have yielded more than $300,000,000 worth of foodstuffs. While this is believed by experts to have been a low estimate it shows the tremendous results from the adding of many small things. There is no reason why the products grown this year should not be double that value, but there is every reason why they should do this and as much more as possible. Every bit of food stuffs grown in the gardens leaves that much other stuffs of which these can take the place, for shipment to our allies.

There ought to be an honest and impartial administra tion of food and fuel conservation and control. This is a '"matter that cohcerns'aH the people and they are willing to put up with privations and will stand for any necessary restrictions in order to win the war, but they do not want to be made the victims of selfish profiteers. The late T. B. Wilcox, owner of the Tortland flouring mills, was mill ing commissioner and his administration was harshly criticised in many quarters. Some of his rules and regulations did look extremely unjust on the face of them and they probably inured to the profit of the big mills he controlled in Fortland. Now that a new commis sioner must be selected it is to be hoped that the food administration in Oregon will be very careful in making a selection for the place. The big gun the Germans have sprung on Paris, if it is a big gun, is apparently of little practical use While some of its shells reach the city they do but little damage and have small explosive force. About all they have ac complished is to make more certain that there is no kind of murder Frussianism will stop at in order to win. Civilized nations do not fire on defenseless towns or at tempt to kill the women and children of their enemies in order to defeat them. Most civilized nations, in fact about all of them except those united with the Hohenzol lern crowd, do not deliberately kill babies. Ireland objects to the draft, and her citizens will not enlist in the war for the. world's freedom. Surely there must have been a great change in the Irishman's nature when he deliberately passes up a scrap. LADD & BUSH, Bankers The Third Liberty Bond Sale Will Begin April 6th. One of our Tellers will be stationed in our Lobby to explain to those wishing information and to receive Liberty Bond Subscriptions. ' That the big five packers are being abusedand harried by Heney and the government is undoubtedly true since the Oregon Voter asserts it, and yet the food administra tion yesterday ordered revoked the license ef the New Orleansbranch of Morris & Co. because it was found guilty of charging excess profits on corn products. The license was ordered revoked for a period of seven days beginning April 8, and it will only be restored on a show ing that proper refunds have been made. It is quite prob able that if the branch was disobeying the law the main business at Chicago was cognizant of it. Italy is calling attention to the Austrians assembling vast forces, apparently for a renewal of the attack upon her, and asks the allies to help her before it is too late. The dispatches tell nothing of what is being done in that line, but it is hoped that the allies have profited by the close call they had by their .delay last year, and have taken such steps as are necessary to help the Italians in their impending struggle with the Huns. The worst feature about the Italian situation is the scarcity of provisions. Latest reports are to the effect that all foodstuffs are at the lowest ebb ever known in the country. Victor Berger has been defeated for senator in Wis consin and the next step should be to properly punish him as a traitor to his country. !; Rippling Rhymes 1 by Walt Mason MORE SIGNS OF SPRING The druggist mixes bitters, to boost the spring-time biz; he says all human critters need tonics such as his; for when the win ter's going the blood is thickly flowing, and boils and things are growing; I say to him, "Gee whiz !"
