Because of the shortage of farm labor the war Dept, has discontinued its recruiting work in rural communities, and future armies are to be given courses in agriculture. The military camps are no longer to be places where the mind of the soldier is kept constantly upon the one subject of shooting straight, riding hard, throwing bombs, and similar activities. It has been noted that the regular soldiers in past years had nothing ahead of them but to upon the expiration of service, for the simple reason that all they knew was soldiering. They were unfit for civil life and its occupations, and too frequently they were merely tough because their minds had guys, been brought to a halt through the methods of life and the limited instruction recived in camps. The War Dept, says that the future Army will not spend a part of the day in drill and the the remainder in idleness. In order to change this, says an official statement, it is the policy of the 'War Dept, to make farmers of as many recruits as can by any means be induced to adopt the profession of agriculture.

Nothing less than the finest loyalty, the most untiring devotion, the recognition of the great importance of their task, a fixed determination to serve faithfully; nothing less than this unified strength which has been so wonderfully displayed by the men' and women engaged in the business of rendering telephone service could have carried the system through the great strain which began with the war and which has not yet passed.

The Democrats in control of Congress for the past EIGHT YEARS bilked about it and did nothing. The first eight legislatures to ratify the Federal Suffrage Amendment were Republican. The first man who secured recognition for women's cause in Congress and arranged committee hearing was Senator James Harlan, of Iowa, a Whig (the forerunner of the Republican party). The first man to introduce and speak for suffrage in Congress was Senator Aaron A. Sargent, a Republican, of California. Republican sentiment for suffrage, steadily growing through the years, culminated in final passage of Suffrage Amendment in 1919 by a (painless. .John, did you bring home that floor stain today?

The prices of all sorts of small fruits are the highest on record this year. The policy of boosting the price to the limit by fruit growers organizations may react to the detriment of the industry by curtailing demand. The present demand for fruit and vegetable products has been created by the canners through their campaign to place these articles before a world consuming public in canned form. When the cost of the raw material forces the price of the canned product beyond the purchasing power of the masses, direct injury will result to the grower.
