COTTON is selling in New York at 2{
cents the pound, the record price sinc<
1871. But somehow cotton makes pow.
erful poor rations.
N. G. EVANS, who is a candidate foi
speaker of the house of representatives,
may be o. k., but his initials look tot
significant to suit us.
SINCE so much cotton has been re
ported killed, it is not too late to plani
that land in corn. We'll probably neet
some corn before the war is ended.

A War of Defense
There are a lot of us who are not il
favor of going to war except to dbfen<
our country against invasion. But whei
we fight the Germans in Europe we ar
doing that very thing. If the German
are not whipped in the present war it i
a foregone conclusion that they will at
tempt to invade this country. In fac
they have already offered Mexico a see
tion of our country if Mexico would hell
them in this war. And how could the
give any of this country to Mexico un
less they came over here and took i
away from us? Now is the time to sub
due Germany.
W': do not know whether there is an
truth in the interesting report, but w

engagement with Watsing Bell. Th
report says she was going to marry hir
for his money and he went out last Sal

9 Waa.: the information Col. M<

about the "caryophyllus aromaticus" i
e highly appreciated, it comes too late t

have a chance to try it out.
a Tine Germans gave another demo
stration of their kultur last week whc
they bombarded London from the ai
e killing sixteen women and twenty-si
children, besides wounding 122 wom<
and 94 children. It was probably pa
ticularly pleasing to the Germans thi
they blew up a school house, killing t(
children aud injuring fifty others.

Read These Fads and Figus You Will
Be Amazed.
You will wonder how'it is possible to produce them at the prices asked. You will
wonder why they are not priced higher.
Compare shoes, the wear they get and. the pleasure they give you with any other
article of wearing apparel and you will appreciate that 8hoes are really the cheapest
article iI your wardrobe.
Shoes are made from skins that grow on the backs of. mimals.' These.-animals are
not raised for their skins, but for meat, for milk, or for beasts of burden. The skins of
animals are available for shoes only as these animals are slayightred for food.
Consider the price you pay for mea t at- the butcher shop. Does thI's tell you any
thing? Consider the price a farmer or stock' grower gets-for a beef steer.
Do you know why? It is the ever increasing world demand for cattle for food and
hides for leather. Higher prices for beef, hi..her prices for hides which go to make shoes,
barness, belts, upholstery, and* hundreds of other articles which cost you more money
today.
Leather is not all. There are 65 other items of materials necessary to make shoes.
But leather and supulies ure not all that go to make shoes.
There is labor. Men and women, boys and girls, must do their part. Labor is one +
oj the big considerations. You know how everyone is employed. Never in history has
there been such complete employment at' high vages. Did you know that it requires
the hands of 300 people to produce a woman's dhoe and get it ready for wearing? Did
you know that it requires 110 machines? You may have an idea that shoes are made in
one machine-that the shoe was completed in one operation. Did you know that there
are 135 separate and distinct operations necessary for each shoe, or 270 separate opera
tions fr each pah?
Why are shoes priced so low? Because shoe manufacturers and retailers have used
brains, skill, scientific methods, and kept prices down. Think it over. Shoes are not priced
too high. By every rule of economical producton it is a wonder they are not higher.
Yours truly,
