i INDIANA'S DISMAL WHEAT OCT LOOK. i i Indiana, which, with Kansas, Ohio and Oklahoma, is one of the four j j greatest wheat states of the Union, wl furnish 2:!,040.00u bushels of the j 1 3o6.U6.000 forecasted for the Union's wheat supply. Owoing to adverse!

j weather conditions, 20 per cent of the Indiana crop has been abandoned, tbe j total dropping to a basis of 63 per cent instead of the usual 82 per cent j average, and this year's crop w ill be one-half that of the harvest in 1913. j Ab is the yield in Indiajia, so is it elsewhere, the total for the Union

! being the worst since 1&04- The results are disappointing, for the final esti-j mates in 1916 were for 481,714,000 bushels for the country. As it is, national j j wheat production is to be lower thaa last year, and the drop comes in the I j year of all years when the world depends chiefly on America for sustenance. , The moral is obvious: With a critical situation staring the world in the, face there must be insurance against famine by whatever measures we take j here. They must bo along the lines of. more production, or the raising of j other products; corn, potatoes and beans must be had in greater measure!

Under the caption, "Keep Business Going for Our Country's Sake." John Wanamaker, New York, has struck a strong blow at the '"ill-advised economy" so strongly condemned in the statement by Howard E. Coffin of- the Advisory committee of the National Defense council. At this time, when the country .hesitates and the public does not know what to expect, every retail advertiser could do a national service and reap direct benefits himself by using part of .his advertising space for positive arguments on the prosperity which is bound to result from American participation in the war. It should be pointed out in such advertising that business must go on, just as Wanamaker's 'has pointed it out. but all arguments should be positive and not dwell too much on the question of economy, or the very effect sought to be prevented may result. The Wanamaker article follows in full: . "Keep business going for our country's sake'"Our country prosperous can pay our war costs, as they come, and have enough left over to aid our allies. "Our country unprosperous, with business halting, money hoarded, through fear or false economy, will be hard pressed to keep food on the table- and clothing on the back.

" Keep business going is a patriotic slogan. Keep money in circula-j tion Kepp employment for everybody. Keep wages good. Keep on raak- j ing money that we may have money to spend for war sacrifices. " The worst thing that could happen to the world these days would be j a business depression in our United States- ' jj " War in itself does not cause business depression. ! "Th billions of dollars of money to be expended In war preparation: i will be put imo circulation in our own country, and this in itself will create ' new wealth for ui-e in the world-struggle for humanity. 9 ( Th- one thing that might bait business now is an unpatriotic psycho-' loCiral fueling panic and a fal.-'e idea of patriotic economy. j " Patriotic economy means the elimination of waste and extravagance. I" means the conservaiion of our food product?, our natural wealth, our health, our energies, our labor, our very lives- It mran.s putting more' efficiency in everything we do so that pach unit of money, energy and intel- i

truly self-sacrificing things to b done. ' jj "Cities and communities must go on w ith their civic improvements, j Road building and public w orks must proceed. Railroads must renew their ; equipment. Factories must be kept going to their full capacity. Labor' must be employed. I femes must be kept up.

'TresitiiT.i Wilson sounds ihe keynote in this sentence: "It is evident to every thinking man that our industries, on the farm- in the shipyards.

Why Pay

for Shoes When You

Don't Have to?

asKs The NewarK Shoe MaKer

STEP up to the window of any Newark Shoe Store anJ what, you see will prove to your own satisfaction that you don't have to pay abnormally, high prices for shoes. You'll see the most beautiful Spring and Summer Oxfords and high shoes that have ever been shown at $2.50, $2.95 and $3.50. You'll see fodtwear that we ought to sell today at very much higher prices, but due to our savings on tremendous output, national distribution and foresight of placing contracts way before prices began to advance, we are able to offer out customer-friends at the more than "'Save A Dollar" prices of $2.50, $2.95 and3.50. No sir, you don't have to pay

high prices here, and a trial of the Newark Shoe will prove it. Come tomorrow 1
