I) ' UTAH WILL NOT i FAIL. Apostle Heber J. Grant is of good ! American fighting stock. In a speech before the students of the Utah Agri cultural college, on Wednesday, he de I clared that his santanic majesty could ; havo no better prime minister than j the kaiser. Apostle Grant declared that he was sure that the allies would -win this ii war, that right would triumph. "But ;l we cannot deny that Germany, should 1 peace come now, would have secured nearly everything she set out to se cure," said the speaker. "Peace today means victory for Germany. We can I not think of peace until we have defi- j ' " ' ' ' 1 ' " " nitely defeated the kaiser and his fol Jowers." Apostle Grant expressed himself as absolutely sure of the patriotism of the people of Utah in this, crisis. "We will not fall to do our full duty and a little more." oo A LESSON FOR THE FARMERS. "Editor Standard: That long-headed, successful business men havo a penetration into the future that is be yond that of an ordinary individual is "shown by referring: to the remarks of Patrick Cudahy, which appeared in the Associated Press dispatch, tho 20th of last October, which read: "I think the farmers will bo glad later on to take half of the prices they are now getting for potatoes," said Patrick Cudahy, head of a packing concern, today, in discuss ing the state of Food Administra tor Hoover that the farmers are holding back their crops. "I think Mr. Hoover's statement is sound," said Mr. Cudahy. "The farmers are getting altogether too much the best of things. They ought to be regulated thO same as business men." " "They are holding back wheat and potatoes for higher prices. People coming from the country tell me the farmers are holding potatoes In their cellars." "They are getting from ?1 to $1.25 for potatoes now. Next spring they will be getting 50 cents." "That the abovo is nearly the case is shown by the present price of pota toes. A year ago potatoes were from 4 to G cents a pound. "Now with people paying the low price that they are, potatoes should enter consumption more extensively, to relieve the demand for wheat flour." This letter is from one of our most prominent business men. It drives home a most important lesson. Our farmers must be content with good profits and, when offered reasonable prices they should sell their products. To do otherwise is to gamble on the misfortunes of this nation. Yesterday a farmer in central Ne vada had 7,000 bushels of wheat com mandeered because he refused to sell at ?2.75 a hundred pounds at a point 100 miles from the Southern Pacific railroad. He thought by holding he might get $5 a hundred pounds, and, though he knew by so doing he was de priving his country of a very neces sary article In the winning of the war, he was unconcerned so long as he per sonally profited! That is a wrong spirit. It is the worst form of selfishness. It is pro iteering. Under that narrowing influ ence, a man's soul must shrivel and his heart decay. oo HOPE THAT NEVER DIES. When you grow discouraged over your small troubles, read this story from tho pen of Arthur Brisbane: This Is the day of great discourage ments. One wants to know if the war will ever end. Another says, "Everything H I CHOCOLATE McDonald's Don't Boil, V- lb I H I Gheradellis, J2 lb. tins .... 17c tin 2 38c 1 I Pf r .-b-r i- & I H I tlnB 28c ' . , H 1 Zatek, 1 lb. tins .... r .. 34c Va" Hftiton's I B I Five lb. tins . $1.65 ' !" 20c I H This Is the best quality.

H Ogden's Groceteria H 181 Twenty-fourth Street lis so hopeless and discouraging." Another moans about the high cost of food. Another, too rich to care how much food costs, growls on account of in come lax, or tho difficulty of getting cheap labor. Give your attention, by way of cheer ing yourself up, to the picture drawn by S. Begg, of the Illustrated London News, which shows the punishment in flicted upon political prisoners by Mongolians at Urga. Here is a description of this com bination torture and imprisonment, -written by Mrs. Herbert T. Bulstrode, -who saw what she describes: "The Mongolians have it in them to bo diabolically cruel, and a more terri ble fate than that which befalls the Mongol malefactor at Urga is difficult of conception. Within a small com pound, fenced in by high spikod pali sades, are five or six dungeons. There are human beings in those dungeons, and among them a number of highly civilized Chinese, imprisoned for po litical offenses, who are shut up for tho remainder of their lives in heavy, iron-bound coffins, out of which they never under any condition or for any purpose, move. They cannot sit up right; they cannot lie down flat; and they see daylight but for a few min utes when their food is thrust into the coffins twice in twenty-four hours. The sight of the hopeless misery of these prisoners made it easy to under stand the Light-heartedness with which three Mongol soldiers went to their ex ecution a few days later on. It may be added that the only ventilation to the 'coffins' is through the hole in the side, and that these holes are Just large enough for a smallish Chinese head to be put through them, rather painfully and with difficulty. The Mon gols, with their wider skulls, cannot put their heads through." Imagine a cave underground, filled with boxes, each containing a prison er, some with heads too big to como through the little hole in the box. Twice daily a jailer comes through to give them bread and water, they hold their hands out through the hole in the box, take their food., They turn and twist inside the box like a dog in a crate too small for it. In this box as he turns to ease his aching muscles, never lying down at full length, never standing up or sitting up the prisoner's clothes wear out and rot from his body. Yet in these boxes you will find men that have not given up hope. They hang onto life. They curse the jailor although they are com pletely at his mercy, They are politi cal prisoners ..defeated in some at tempted revolution. They believe that their turn will come,, that the door of the dungeon in which their boxes lie will be opened some day not by the jailer but by friends come to deliver them. They stay alive, and hope and clean out their boxes as best they may, and when the dungeon door is shut and the jailer gone, they settle their plans and discuss their hopes, talking to each other in the dark. uu CHICAGO DOCTOR OFFERS A SUGGESTION. "Editor Standard. Dear Sir: As one of your constant readers, I want to thank you for your trenchant and timely editorial remarks. "Your remarks on drilling some men at home as an emergency meas ure, seems to be to bo sane and timely. "I think all of the readers of your valuable paper will be especially pleased with your craotatlon from the Wall Street Journal on John Brown ing. It must seem good to old Ogden ites and friends of John Browning, that the world's greatest and most cel ebrated inventive genius in the line of automatic rapid fire arms elaboration has at last claimed his own. "What a pity that so many of our wind-colic senators, for reasons best known to themselves, stalled, and like the cuttlefish, squirted their black fluid to hide their friendship for ma nipulators of inferior guns, when, at this present moment, 'humanity is in such dire need of the product of the brain of our worthy citizen, to stop the onrushing blood-drunk legions of that short-armed mastoid degenerate, and camouflaging megaioparanoiac. "It seems .to me that when John Browning returns to his home, tho good citizens of Ogden ought to give him some kind of a proper homecom ing reception. "We are not hero-worshippers, but I am sure that we should express ap preciation where so great a credit is due. "Thanking you for the privilege of intruding a suggestion, I am, sincerely, (Signed) "FREDERICK EVERETT." Doctor Everott, who has become a resident of Ogden, is a talented, pa triotic American, in whose judgment The Standard has confidence. We are pleased to have his moral support. i Dr. Everett's suggestion that John M. Browning's home-coming be ob served has the endorsement of this pa per, and Tho Standard will interview our prominent citizens in reaching a decision as to the nature of the cele- 1 bration. ' LIME WATER MAY BE NECESSARY. One of our best housekeepers, who is endeavoring to live up to the or ders of the food administration, said: "I have tried this mixed war bread, with a big percentage of bran and oth er cereals, and I am not satisfied with my efforts. I must confess a souring of the stomach. There is a fermen tation, which not only affects me but others have told me certain kinds of war bread cause fermentation. At first I thought It was the change In diet or perhaps due to an upset from some cause other than the bread, but I now am convinced my recipe is somewhat defective. This reminds us of an article on this subject which lately appeared In the Scientific American, as follows: "To the Editor of the Scientific American: "In tho issue of the Scientific Amer ican of February 9, you published-an t I article about war bread where you ad vocated the use of limo water instead of milk or water, whon the new war flours are used. I have had four years of domestic oconomy at Lewis insti tute, and was very much interested in your article, so tried using lime water in mixing my bread, and thought you might be interested in the results. 1 have tried making the bread with it twice, and find it works beautifully using two-thirds war flour, one-sixth rye, and ono-sixth oatmeal. The bread rises well, is sweet tasting and as your articlo says keeps moist for several days. I am enclosing a recipe for the bread, and if you care to pass the in formation on to the housewives, you are at liberty to use it: "Ono cake compressed yeast dis solved in cup warm water, 1 cup steel cut oatmeal cooked 10 minutes in 1 pint of water, 2 tablespoons sugar, 2 tablespoons fat, 2 tablespoons of salt, 1-3 cup of lime water, 1 pint wator, 22 cups rye flour, 6 to 7 cups war flour. "Cook oatmeal, let cool until luke warm, add yeast and other ingrodients, "knead well, let rise until double In bulk; knead again; shape into loaves; put in tins and lot riso again; bake in moderate oven about 50 minutos. This makes threo good sized loaves. "I -was unable to get the lime water made up one part in three thousand, so bought a 15-cent bottle of lime water at the drug store, and find It works very well using one-third cup, of it and one pint of water for the li quid. "I want to thank you for the helpful idea. "CLARA M. GOTT, "Chicago, 111." GENERAL BELL'S ! STATEMENT. Nothing received since the Germans began their mighty offensive of a week ago is so reassuring as the statement of Major General J. Franklin Bell, made before the senate military com mittee today, to the effect that the German preparations for the drive were known to the allies when he was in France, and the British withdrawal was according to a pre-arranged plan. Accepting that as true, .and, further more, taking the figures of a month ago made public by General Maurice of tho British information bureau, that the allies maintained a preponderance of man-power and gun-power on the western front, we have reason to ex petc a tremendous allied counter-attack with a crushing defeat for the Germans. Having planned a retirement from in front of Cambrai, the British and French must have mapped out a coun ter move. So far there has been no AV"ir1 pn rr nf n rorv o I Trnrr nitAm.; - unuug, aLiuuiyc LU pierce the German lines south of Ar ras or north of Noyon. If the French have the forces, there is an opportunity to strikea blow which will end tho war. Moving north from Noyon, the allies should be able to cut off a hundred thousand Germans and smash In the south side of the entire Prussian army. uu Every mother should take an interest in the movement for special chihldren's pro grams.

The case of Adolph Harris vs. Israel Hunsaker was decided in favor of the plaintiff, who was awarded damages and costs of suit in the sum of $150 for alleged damages caused by de fendant's cattle destroying his crops last year. The case of the Oregon Short Line Railroad company -vs. B. C. Call, ad ministrator of, the estate of John Moemberg, the defendant was awarded damages in the sum of $3,375 in a right of way condemnation proceeding. The plaintiff company Is building a spur line from Garland toward Bear River City, and the suit grew out of the plaintiff company crossing the land of the defendant. The case of H. M. Nelson vs. the Ogden, Logan & Idaho (Utah-Idaho Central) Railroad company, came on for hearing Tuesday afternoon. The jury was practically completed that afternoon and before court convened yesterday morning the case was set tled between plaintiff and defendant company by the latter purchasing the property alleged to have been dam aged by the defendant in building yards, coal houses, sand dumps and other yard appurtenances too close to his residence on West Forest street. The case was not tried. Policeman John H. Burt killed a queer-acting dog in this city yester day and sent the head of the beast in to the state chemist for analysis as to the dog's ailment. The dog had been bothering pedestrians considerably and the officer decided to take no chances on the animal developing rabies in view of the serious case just reported from Ogden. A close lookout will be kept hereafter on all dogs not properly protected. oo- Deaths and Funerals VyELCH The funeral of George Welch wfll be held at 1 p, m Sunday, in the Taylor ward chapel with Bishop W.
