Remember that the railroads are engaged with the urgent movement of troops and their supplies; that ther is unusual pressure In various parts of the country frr food and fuel; that the railroads have more business than they can handle rorr.ptly. For that reason many traips are late. Thi Times has increased its mailing equipment and is cooperating in every way with the poatofflce department to expedite delivery. Evtn so. delays are inevitable because o? the enormous demands upon the railroads and the withdrawal of men from many lines of work.
found in the policy Inaugurated by Joseph. Pharaoh's food administrator, in ancient Egypt. In years of plenty, Joseph prepared for years of dearth. Instead of using up Egypt's record crops, he limitea consumption and kept right on encouraging production.

Sooner or later, we and the rest of the world are pretty certain to need that wheat. As for the Australian and Arren' inaian supply, it Is not available, owing to the lack c f ships. Eventually it miy add to our own surplus. Our duty, then, as a nation and as individual?, as producers and consumers, is plain. AW must produce ail we can. and consume no more than we ;ibsok:!

' TIME TO STOP FOOLING. t-eV.exe, the TIammond ci-y council will, tonight at its epeoial meeting. Quit dallying with the street car franchise and pass it. It will be quite beyond the ability of the people of Hammond to fathom the reason on the part of the aldermen for any longer withholdine action on tfc government franchise after tonight. It is a war measure. The big majority of the taxpayers of the city of Hammond believe it should become written into the record Immediately. The administration is quite fond of the referendum. Now if they are sincere in its belief in this form of government of the people, by the people and for the people the administration leaders will urge the passage of the ordinances granting the franchise without let or hindrance. Gentlemen of the city council, you have had a lot cf fun over the franchise! You have created quite a diversion in municipal circles! Let's cut it out now and get down to business! You have dealt fairly with the Calumet avenue supporters. They certainly hare had a run for their money. Now give the rest of us a run for ours. We believe you will. You surely can't turn down I'ncle Sam'
HARD TO PLEASE.
It is hof, isn't it? Sometimes it seem? as if the continued strain of all these stifling, suffocating days and nights is more than this "all too melting human flesh" could stand. And yet Do we really know what discomfort is? This morning a train load of soldier boys going from somewhere to somewhere pased through. They were clad in khaki ;;nd ctad in flannel. They had been riding for Heaven knows Low long and were going to ride for Heaven knows how much longer, and yet was there a grouch in the train load of a thousand? Xo so you could notice it. They were all cheery, full of animal spirits. Probably they had slept but little for nights and nights, and there wasn't a grouch in the bunch. They were cooped up in that sweating, reeking train and they had no complaint to make. Last night we passed by the Great Lakes Naval station. There forty-six thousand boys swelter in pup tent and barracks. Yet there was music in the air everywhere. Not one breath of air stirred, but the glad voices" of youth burst on the air. These men live by rote rule and order. They can do Just bo many things. We can do most anything and yetwe are kicking and growling noit of the time over the"heat that is making the corn grow and helping to lick the beast of Berlin.
FOR A WH EAT RESERVE. Along with public announcements that our production of wheat and other basic foodstuffs thi3 year will amply suffice for tho needs of ourselves and our allies, the government is appealing to American farmers to increase our wheat output next s eason, and hlrting that a retjrn to rcrmal c -.r.sunipfion should not be expected. This years whe-n, which the agricultural department he pod would total a round billion bushels, is now expected to amount to a little less than 300,000,000 bushels. With that total, even if we kept the usual quantity for domestic consumption, we should have left about 350,000,000 tor export. Figuring on a moderate degree t e' .-my, we may expect to have a surplus of 00, 00,00' !ust' or more. This surplus becomes still more im:r-.-s3ive when we consider that our major allies --ve considerably mo-e wheat of their own than tbry ed last -ear ""here nre big crops and liberal suryuee tv-c ' a : ' rgentina. " ay, ht-u, should we proceed to raise still more v :.8u.t, and continue saving, thus adding to the surplus at both ends? Tne answer is simple. The precedent Is
A VERY OLD GUESTION. Cutie Kef. ps lived on a farm w ith his paw and maw. He was just turned twenty-two. The school ma'am boarded with Cutie's folks. She wasn't one of these little scrawny school ma'ams of thin neck, flat chest and uncertain years. She was young, good looking anil buxom. Cutie was so crazy about the school ma'am he couldn't sleep. But he didn't have the nerve to stand up to her and spark her. Ife instinctively felt he wouldn't have much chance. So he pretended ho didn't keer a dang fer any girl, while remaining shy of any advancement that would give the school ma'am a chance to turn him down. Thus he adopted the tactics of the naughty ten-year-old boy and was eternally seeking a chance to scuffle with the Fchool ma'am. This gave him a chance to put his hands on her, and take liberties with her person that he could have attained in no other way. She fought back more or less and yelled s-t-o-p, now, you s-t-o-p. Those who witnessed the performance were never real sure whether Fhe meant it or not. A young man, who stood ace high with the s. m., used to sit and witness Cutie's onslaughts, under his safe cover of assumed juvenile bufoonery. It made him feel veryqueer to see Cutie manhandle hi? lady Iovp in this free and easy fashion. He noted carefully Sweetheart's tonj of voice as she piped. Now-, you stop that! But he wa? always uncertain as to just how- she really f.-.it abou' it. Lamar Democrat.

In contemplating the gigantic growt;- -. -. v navy, we have almost, overlooked the navy. Th.c l-t-ancri o the service, which was far more nearly adequate thai the army in personnel and equipment at the beginning of the war, has had a development hardly less remarkable than the army's. There are now more than r.oo,oio men in the navy. That number does not include the naval mechanics and laborers, but only the armed forces. If represents a gain in personnel of about 700 per cent. The present strength is said to be four times larger than Great Britain's was before the war, and nearly as large as all the pre-war navies of the world. Ships have multiplied almost in the same proportion as men, if we reckon, along with th fighting craft already bought and built, those under construction. Our naval power is now increasing far more rapidly than that of the first naval power. Great Britain. We may expect to be nearly equal by the end of the war.

Perhaps you may have thought, sadly, as we do whenever we see a G. A. R. gathering, that the survivors of the Grand Army of the Republic look few and old and feeble, but it is well to bear in mind the spirit, of the "old boys" awaiting the call to "fame's eternal camping ground," is the same as it was in 'fil-'ro. Speaking of the war "over there,' Command' r George Blair, of Farraguet Post, addressing comrades at th Sailors and Soldiers' Monument, said: We know that we shall find a Grant who will fight it out with the unspeakable German Empire and fight it to a successful conclusion, even though it takes twenty years to do it, and we know that a Farragut will arise when the occasion for a Farraguet comes. Our Americnns have a way of fighting to a finish, and that's the way they are going into this struggle, and when the final hour comes our commander, whoever he may be. will, when the aKiser asks our terms, respond as did Grant, "Unconditional surrender!" It i3 our belief that Commander Blair has spoken not alone for Farragu', but for all o'her G. A. R. posts. and for the nation.
