An Appeal to the West
il the appeal I make especial!
to the men and women of the West.
do not merely f.sk you to go to tli
men of the West, or to chec
men when they go, you woran
? a-k you to -ec that I am give
nigh privilege of making my void
. by rn;. deeds and going to th
you. 1 have asked leave t
he allowed to raise a division to tak
to the front in the first expeditionai
force, under the commander of tha
force; a division which, after two o
three months' preliminary tri? in in
, here, can be taken for intensive train
ing to France, and then put into th
trenches at the earliest possible m?
ment that the Allied generals deem i
0 tender service. I ask that 1 h
allowed to join with others who fee
as J do in making good the President'
message.
"I ask that I and those deare?t to nu
and closest to me by blood shall hi
the chance to prove the truth o
endeavor, and be sent at the ear
hie moment under the fla?
to the t.ring line.
"I ri?? not ask for men in the cla---e>
{ which would be taken under the Admin
[ ?stration's plan for an army raisec
i under the obligatory system. I ask foi
men who would not otherwise be a!
lowed to go. The force I propose tc
raise would represent r.n absolute ad
1 ?iition to the nation's military strength
! an addition which could be used at
once, which would serve to put the flag
and keep the flag on the firing line dur?
ing the time that the great army was
being raised, and while our flag
would otherwise not be on the firing
line. The favor I ask is the great
favor of being allowed to render a ser.
vice which I believe that my record en?
titles me to say that I am able to ron
der."
I rge* Ran on Drinks
Colonel Roosevelt, in an earl.er
speech, at a luncheon given by the
Chicago branch of the National Secur
I.eaguo, urged that the uso of
nrrn for the manufacture of alcoholic
drinks be prohibited for the period of
the war.
He urged obligatory military train?
ing and the expansion and improve?
ment of the navy, and asserted that
an expeditionary force should be sent
to France at once. He remarked that

NE of the first places where
the people of the United
States are going to feel the
effect of this nations entry into the
war is in increased food costs.
This is inevitable. No matter who
yon are or where you live, you are
going to feel it -unless you do some?
thing about it right away. What can
you do, and how shall you do it?
Every man and woman who has
room in his yard or who can get the
use of a vacant lot near his home to
start a garden should think and act
right now.
You to whom this idea is now will be sur?
prised to know thai the yield from oven a .?mall
plot of ground will produce enough vegetables to
feed a family of five all summer. Figure this
oui in dollars and cents and von will be surprised
at the amount of money a small garden will save
: ou in a single season. Invest the cost of neces?
sary seeds and the small amount of labor re?
quired and you will be delighted at the additional
goodness you will enjoy in fresh garden truck
picked right out of your own patch. Try this
plan, ?beginning now?this month, is planting
time, and you will find that you will be distinctly
benefited physically?yes, and mentally, too?by
the wholesome outdoor work of pottering around
in the ground among growing things.
And right here is where you will
find the new Encyclopaedia Britan?
nica of immense practical value.
Are you
surprised at
th? idea that
the Britan?
nica can be of
i m m e di?te
help in such
an ordin a r y

NOW or you

The Encyclopaedia Britannica cov?
ers the whole range of agricultural
subjects completely from the very
? foundation of a thorough knowledge
of gardening and extending over the
widest field.
It will tell you what kind of ground each crop
uifd^. It will tell you how to prepare the
ground, how far apart to plant the rows of ^cd^.
when to plant, how to cultivate the ground while
things are growing, and it even gives the ?amen
of reliable varieties of seeds.
The Britannica describes local crops and any
local methods of farming that are of special in?
terest. It contains some MO articles on indi?
vidual plants.
The article "Soil" (Vol. '-'."). p. 845) tells how
to make the best finality of soil. The article Mn
lure? and Manuring tells about fertilizing, the
supplying of ingredients the soil needs to make it
most fertile. There are articles on Bacteriology,
the effects of Sunlight. Shade. Heat, Cold, Water
enough. Drainage, Irrigation, Reclamation of
waste land.
There is an article that tells how
to fight all kinds of pests from bug
and the like to the larger enemies
like the rabbit. It is safe to say
that any amateur gardener with the

the Britannica can multiply his
chances of success and the yield
from his patch many, many times.
Think of this matter of food sup?
ply seriously. It will become very
serious if the war runs on.
Every farmer of a dozi n acres or many hun?
dred--' of acres, growing such staples as wh I
barley, corn, rye, ha:. cotton, etc., will be called
upon to increase the Meld and reliability of his
crops. The farmers of big farms will find in the
Britannica articles full of information and help
to them, for the agricultural articles and articles
?m correlated subjects are written by agricult?
ural experts ?if world-renown. ,
The Britannica is the highest authority in the
world for information on all farming subjects,
including live stock and the animal industry.
If you have room for poultry, the Britannica
articles on Poultry and Poultry Farming will
help you to make this a successful economic
side line.
Bee keeping and the honey in?
dustry is a method ol food produc?
tion that is interesting and practi?
cally without expense. People who
live in apartment houses in the
cities, miles from the country, have
kept bees on their roofs success?
