WE MAKE WAR
"Jo fais la guerre." declares Pre
mier (’lemeneeau, when details of his
administration of the affairs of France
are criticized. "1 make war." is his
reply both to questions of his critics
and pleas of political favor seekers.
Matters of domestic policy, distri
bution of favors of state, relations
with personal friends and enemies,
must go overboard for the time with
the lion of France; have gone over
board. in fact, ever since the day that
he took the helm in the war-driven
country They will wait "apre la
guerre," that phrase that springs to
the lips of everyone to f ranee now
adays; that is rienieneeatl'8 appoint
ment for all matters not actually con
nected with the prosecution of the
war "After the war" there will be
time and occasion for routine mat
ters of life Hut now they make
\\ ar
This war is not one whit more im
portant to M. Cletnenceau than it Is
to every citizen, man, woman and
< hild. or the United States He has
had placed upon him a heavier re
sponsibility for its conduct, heavier
only because it is larger in Its scope.
It is no greater so far its the obliga
tion to carry on personally is con
cerned He is no more a part of it
than every one of us; and his duty
is no keener.
"I make war" is the slogan for every
one who considers himself or herself
a part of America now. Matters of
personal interest, personal luxury,
personal grievance, have no place in
the present scheme. After (he war
that is tin- time for their considera
tion. We may live up every cent of
our earnings if we sec fit; we may
take three months of vacation every
summer if we like to live that way;
we may buy elaborate shoes, if that
our taste; we may change jobs
every time tin- whim strikes us; we
may consider our savings and expen
ditures of money, time and work no
one's business but our own --after the
war.
Hut for the present we are not con
cerned with rewards and grievances,
with luxury and loading, with very
much of anything except that thing
which lias become the life of the coun
try.
We make war.
The phase of war-making concern
ing ns at present is shaping our af
fairs (o take our share of the Fourth
Liberty loan.

I Do you keep chickens?
If not why not?
j If so, uro they approved breeds?
What kind of fowl are kept In your
; neighborhood?
Are they Just “chickens," or are
| they renl, working hens, earning their
grub?
Cun you name five or six of tho best
breeds of hens and describe the out
standing qualities of eucli?
Do turkeys, ducks or geese possess
any advantages over hens?
Under whut circumstances might
tills he so?
How long does it take to hatch a
hen's egg, a duck egg, a goose egg,
a turkey egg?
Do you sell more eggs than you
eat?
now many eggs did you aeli last
year?
Did you calculate the average price?
Do you know what your hens cost
to feed?
Which sells for the most—a Ply
mouth Rock, a Leghorn, a Brahma?
A goose, turkey or duck—per pound?
Whose fault Is it if the hens are
not luylng?
Are you calculating on having lay
ing hens next winter?
Do you know that hens can be made
to lay under scientific conditions and
thnt “chance” doesn’t make poultry
keeping profitable?
Has the hen as much right to com
plain of her housing, feeding or mill
leal care ns you have about not get
ting more eggs?
Reverse tills question. Does the hen
feel cheap?
Seventy-four per cent of an egg is
water. Do you expect eggs from
thirsty hens? Nix.
Fifteen per cent of an egg is pro
tein, I’rotoin is the food thnt makes
muscle and lean meat. Hens get pro
tein from worms, hugs, insects, grass
hoppers and meat scraps. Can your
hens get enough of these summer and
winter? You can’t have sausage if you
have no meat to grind up, eh?
Rabbits, squirrels, buttermilk and
butchers’ offal make good egg-produc
ing diet.
An egg is ten per cent fat. Fat is
made from starch. Crain, especially
corn, is rich In starch.
An egg is one per cent mineral mat
ter, mostly lime. This forms shell.
See that the hens get enough. Can’t
sell soft shell egg-, can you?
Some people might ns well expect i
the cat to lay eggs as the hen when |
oue compares tile care they both get.

Capital Stock Increase
WEALTHY MEN, many of whom have
never been in Alaska, have shown
their faith in this wonderful country
by doubling their investments in capital stock
in the BANK OF ALASKA. This means more
than purchasing 100 per cent more stock. It
means that every stockholder taking new stock
is doubling his obligation to the depositors,
the same as the present stockholders.
Bank of Alaska
with the increase will have
$170,000 CAPITAL
which is much more than any bank in the
Territory of Alaska.
You should show your faith in the country by stick
ing to Alaska unless you are called to the colors. S:art
now in your saving and not only be prepared for all gov
ernment calls but be ready for the great reconstruction
period that will follow victory
Your good judgment in sticking to the country will
be further shown by opening an account with the
Bank of Alaska
