up with added interest methods or saving through Thrift and War Saving stamps as o.e of the easiest, safest and best ways of 'putting some
thing aside.' "
Renewed interest In Liberty nonas
has also come to the notice of the
postofflce department where numerous inquiries regarding the purchase of additional bonds have been received.
Schools to Urge Thrift "The trend of renewed interest in
these government Investments of all
kinds has come as a gratifying surprise to me," said the postmaster.
A revival of former methods 01 war
Saving stamps and thrift stamps sales in schools will be made by Superintendent J. H. Behtley as soon as the public school opens In September.

Mr. Morrison said, "it would be well to
tear in mind that quasi-public cor
porations are created for service and not for profit. A long line of decisions from the supreme court of the United States down have invariably held that the fundamental purpose of these corporations is to serve the public and that they are only entitled to a fair remuneration. "Hardly any one will deny that under private management the railroads have been financial footballs and they have ben directed by interests whose wreckage of numerous railroad systems in cmomon knowledge. This wreckage has been ac
companied by a debauching of legisla
tures and other political activity that tested democratic institutions.
"The times call for new arrangements in the management of properties that are only made possible by the public's consent. "Aside from the application of democracy in these properties, and their handling by practical railroad men, the Sims bill will squeeze all fictitious value out of these properties. This will affect living costs and reduce charges the public must now meet, for then it will no longer be necessary to compel the railroads to earn dividends on millions of dollars of watered stock."

Keep Ground Cultivated,
Wesler's Garden Advice
"Keep the top surface of the home
gardens well cultivated," is the advice of F. W. Wesler, local garden supervisor. The recent heavy rain will materially aid the gardens if this
advice is heeded, Wesler says.
Late potatoes should be sprayed
with Bordeaux mixture to control tip burn and late blight and, tomatoes
and beans should receive the same
treatment, for these plants are sub
ject to blight
Wesler says that according to all
indications there will be a bumper
crop of tomatoes this fall.
Plant borers have attacked the squash vines and the gardeners
should keep watch for it. Upon dis
covery, notify Wesler and he will aid
in exterminating the pest.

EMBARGO ON TRAFFIC CHICAGO, Aug. 6 Effects on traffic of the strike of federated railroad shop men which started last Friday was seen today in the embargo placed by several lines in the southwest on all freight shiprafents except carload lots of livestock and perishable goods. Accessions to the ranks of the strikers was increasing and it was believed would lead additional lines to place embargoes 6n traffic Investigation of the manner in which the strike was called was put under way today by R. A. Milroy, assistant United States district attorney.
"The district council which called the strike was formed here during the conference between the general director of railroads and the union officials to have the men remain at work pending the adjustment of the
differences. The district council of
railroad shopmen had no authority to call the strike, the testimony already taken shows. Responsible union men have complained to the government and we are
conducting an examination to determine who is responsible for the interference with government arbitration
and with the operation of the rail
roads under federal administration."

Truck-Load Of Ice Is
Destroyed By Flames
WINCHESTER, Ind.. Aug. G. A
three-ton Defiance truck, owned by
Union City men was almost destroyed
by fire, with two and one-half tons of ice on board, about two miles east of Farmland. An approaching automobile
forced the driver to drive close to a narrow spot in the road. The big truck with its heavy load of ice skidded into the ditch and in doing so the carburetor caught fire from the ignition system. The two men with the truck were slightly injured. They broke up the Ice and placed it on the truck which greatly assisted in extinguishing the
flames. About 1,500 pounds of the ice
was sold to farmers. The loss of the truck is keenly felt as it had been making dally trips to Mumrie for ice since the famine in this city.
