The Fourth Liberty Loan will not fail for lacK of port to American Farmers. I5y D. JORGENSON LAWRENCE Fourth Liberty Loan d7TT E sup- That is the answer 1 am giving to those who ask me what the response of the American firmer will he. I am making this confident assertion in the laee of the fact that the American people are now being asked to make a colossal contribution to liberty, $3,000, 000,000. American farmers have demonstrated their patriotic support of the Nations great war loans. One of the most striking features of the Third Liberty Loan was the support given you by the farming rural populations. Not only did farmers purchase liberally of the bonds, hut the rural as a rule were more prompt in completing their quotas of the loan than the larger cities. More than twenty thousand communities in the United States subscribed or oversubscribed their quotas, many of them uithe first day The majority of these were not cities, but of the campaign. country districts. Iowa, a typical agricultural state, was the first to subscribe its quota. eom-Imuniti- I Editorial Comment WM09M$M6$$: George Washington was the Who Father of this Country. for Kaiser the hell wants the the step-father- ?

A. and other war workers are doing for the cause of the Allies, which is the cause of God, or righteousness. Whether consciously or unconsciously, the robin when he sings in the rain is doing a real good. Every note that wells up from his heart of hearts is a note of pure gold and does the world good. For, while the skies are overcast, while the floodgates of heaven are open, the robin bursts forth in his song of hope, of promise of bright Skies and beautiful things to come. Like the robin in the rain, the war workers of the Y. W. C. A. are singing an inspired song and it is inspiring the world. Not literally a song, and yet a song, for a song is harmony and these wodkers are engaged in restoring harmony to a sadly discordant world. are the days person and every enterprise must cooperate.

The robin dervies his inspiration direct from heaven, and he sings rapturously because he walks with God and knows only good. How can he be other than joyous, tor he looks beyond the darkening cloud and sees the sun, Gods light that warms the universe. So to does the war worker derive her inspiration from heaven. When she hands a cup of coffee and a sandwich to a mud covered doughboy direct from the first line trenches, or assists the suffering in a base hospital, or carries her comforts to the brave women working in a munitions plant, she looks not for the distress that surrounds her. Rather she sees the soul of the person to whom she ministers, and her heart sings with joy, like the robins, for to her is Gods glory revealed. One should think of these things whenever a girl is seen in the horizon blue of the Y. W. C. A. war worker. She is one of Gods robins, singing in the storm, making the world better and brighter, and more gladsome. She is in Gods service, and it is the duty and should b the,pleasure of every true Christian to contribute to the cause. Give for the Y. W. C. A. war work, that the boys and the men and women who are sweating and toiling, risking their lives and dying for Christs sweet sake, shall hear the blessed song of the robin in their ears.

The beet growers of the state, it is declared, are producing one of the most seriously needed wur time food products sugar. The fact tbat the increased production will be sufficient for the is desugHr requirements clared by Utah food officials to be significant. It means that Utah has e responded to a government war-timcall for help in a concrete, definite way that brings great credit to the state; tliat this commonwealth is able to say to Uncle Sam : We are turning over to you for use wherever It may be needed un amount of sugar equivalent to our entire proOur induction in previous years, creased production will be enough for our own home needs," Every citizen of the state must, it Is believed, be proud of this record. For Ihe benefit of beet growers of the state, the federal food officials have cited the following fads which may aid in an increased production for next year; It is estimated that the best fields of U tah will this season produce between 300,000 and 400,000 tons of tops aud crowns. We need an increased amount of forage to meet what appears to he a short hay crop. Our government is making every consistent effort to produce more meats and dairy products to supply the requirements of our fighting forces, as well as the needs of the civilian population. Thto calls for a tremendous tounuge of these supplies, This western country produces thousands of head of cattle and sheep that come off the ranges each autumn. The greater part of this stock goes to eastern markets, directly off the ranges. A large proportion of this stock ought to be fed and better finished right here on our western farms. The results of Investigations thus far obtained iudicate very clearly that the most profitable use can be made of ths beet tops when they have been converted into silage. The process is luexpeuslve and the results will mean an added cash profit from the beet crop and It will also mean that Utah our will greatly aid in increasing tvailable meat and dairy supplies." Easy to Make a Pit Silo. Excavate the earth silo any desired width, depth or length. The average beet grower will make the width 12 or 14 feet and two or three feet deep. If the drauage is good, let It he three or four feet deep ; If the water table is near the surface, make it more shallow., Make the silo excavation with team and scraper. Leave both ends Sloping so the team and wagon may drive right through. It is not necessary to chop the tops. Pack them well to exclude the air. Bank the sides of the beet top mass, which may he extended above the surface, with the loose earth. Top out with earth or finely packed straw or Earth packed chaff or beet pulp. firmly against the sides will hold the mass solid. The location should be handy to the feeding lot. The fermenting process needs four or five weeks. When ready to feed, strip off the earth or other covering and cut down a section Ot a time. 1918-181- 9 d Inmgine what a sight to see 350 air planes maneuvering from a mile to two miles above.
