In the siejre warfare that prevailed until recently there was little chance for this sort of flghtin. Now, with the promise of more open comhat, it is s-ure to come into greater us and to prove its value. It is the sort of work in which the confident, re sotirceful, Irrepresible American is at his best. It 'is the diametrical opposite of the Cennan mass flennng. which depends on weight and bulk rattier than personal initiative. Every time the two styles have come into conflict so far, the Yankees have won. may expect them to continue doin; so. and their success may lead thf riiitih and French to copy their methods.

THE ROADSIDE MARKET.

..IED out faithfully .SO thoreuehly is cur nature brutalized by war.

tndiara farmers are urged to establish roadside mar- I kets for the salo of their products to passing automobil- j ists. The United States food administration, in a special bulletin Just addressed to county administrators susreests j that the farmer might dispose of a larce amount of; perishables and the motorist profit by a reduced price j through such an arrangement. The suggestion is that i a stand be placed convenient to the roadside whore i: ; might be attended by the housewife or children. A hub j letin board might announce the kind and quality of the j produce offered and the price s'ated. j

Reports made to the food administration state that other states have found the roadside market a very successful enterprise, appealing especiilly to a class of mo'oris's who ride in the evenings for pleasure It has been found the source of the savins of a considerable truck tonnage and frequen'ly has served to save farm labor by enabling the farmer and his family , o spend the time in the field rather than en route to and from the city market.

what The money is for. For the purpose of the Fourth Liberty Loan drive, which is scheduled for September 2S to October 19, the publicity director of the Seventh Federal Reserve district, of which 68 northern Indiana counties are a part, has determined to emphasize the use to which bond buyers' money is put by Uncle Sam. With an army approaching a million and a half in France it will be the desir of fse publicity department to educate the people o think in term? of 'he food and equipment, nectssftry to take care of their lighting sons and brothers for the fiscal period of one year. It has been estimated from statistics on file with the war department at Washington that during twelve month? on the fighting front it requires 475 pounds of beef to maintain the proper strength in th? average soldier's body. Before his appetite, whetted by excitement and strenuous activity in tense moments, is satisfied he will have consumed 275 pounds of bacon. These figures may suggest the necessity for meatless meals and days, which heretofore have been more or less common. Of wheat the food administration sets aside each year for each fighter 413 pounds, of potatoes 458 pounds, of beans 55 pounds, of prunes 27 pounds, of coffee 26 pounds, of sugar 73 pounds (which is the principal reason why civilians low restricted to a per capita consumption of two pounds per month), of syrup 7 pounds, of condensed milk 112 pounds, of butter 112 pounds, of lard 11 H pounds, of vinegar 31 pounds and of salt 13'2 pounds. It will be a relatively simple matter, the publicity director argues, for every individual with even the simplest taste for mathematics to calculate something near what it costs to keep every fighter in trim to do his work effectively. When this total is translated into terms of millions, it Is approaching the sum that Uncle Sara is spending annually in order that his army may come as near having all the comforts of home aa the circumstances permit. The organizational meetings in the Seventh Rescro district now being conducted by the executive committees indicate that the people very generally appear pre pared for the commencement of the government;.; fourth big drive for money, and that there is every reason to believe the 6S Indiana counties will have subscribed their allotment very soon after the books are open September
