THE TRIANGLE SECRETARY
Up t<> tile front-line trenches,
Where the brunt of the fighting falls
And back to the last cantonment
When the summoning bugle calls
• Wherever there .' need of a brother
To' carry the fighting tune.
In the war of men and angels
•Go the men of the Great Triune.
To war with the darkling powers, ’S.
Courageous and clean they go.
They carry no arms in tile battle;
But the things that count they know.
They know when a w'qrd is in season,
When a friendly hand is’a boon;
To serve and be glad jn the serving
Is the creed of the Great Triune.
On the sands of the blazing desert.
On the pass of relentless sno'ws,
Wheretver in quest of freedom
The trail of humanity goes
There's never a post too lonely,
There’s never a time too soon
Nor ever a task too daunting
For the heart of the Great Triune.
In the name of the Master of Manhood,
Who taught that man is divine,
Spirit and mind and body,
They hold the supporting line.
Till the world that sits in darkness
Shall walk in the light of noon.
They will wear the triple chevrons
Defending their faith triune.
Faith in their far off vision.
The truth of the'mystic plan.
Where love and reason and valor
Meet in the perfect man.
On the road of the marching sorrows.
Through the wake of a waning moon.
Come up with the suns of morning
The men of the Great Triune.
—Bliss Carman, in Association Men.

REHABILITATION OF
OUR WOUNDED
The United States Government i
resolved to do its best to restore e\
ery wounded American soldier and
sailor to health, strength and self
supporting activity.
Until his discharge from the hos
pital all the medical and surgical
treatment necessary to restore him tn
health is under the jurisdiction of the
military or naval authorities, accord
ing to the branch of the service he is
in. The vocational w.lining, the re
education and rehabilitation necc
sary to restore him to self-supporting
activity, is under the jurisdiction of
the Federal Hoard of Vocational
F.ducation.
, If he needs an artificial limb or me
chanical appliance the Government
will supply it free, will keep it in re
pair. and renew it when necessary,
if after hi- discharge he again needs
medical treatment on account of his
disability, the Government will supply
it free. While he is in the hospital
and while in training afterwards the
soldier or sailor will receive compen
sation as if in service and his family
or dependents will receive their allot
ment.
A wounded soldier or sailor, al
though his disability does not prevent
him from returning to employment
without training, can take a course of
vocational tarining free of cost and
the compensation provided by the war
risk insurance act will be paid to him
and the training will be free, but no
allotment will be paid to hi- family.
F very Liberty Bond holder who
bold- bis bond is keeping up a part of
this great work of restoring to health,
strength, and usefulness the men who
have suffered for their country.

BREED BETTER HORSES,
SPECIALISTS ADVISE
According to reports received by
the United States Department of Agri
culture. the situation in the horse
breeding industry reveals the fact that
there are many nondescript and plug
horses glutting the markets. This
condition, it is believed, Effects the
horse industry in general. The real
good -animals are still commanding
satisfactory prices, but the misfits tire
being sold for .considerably less than
the cost of production. The saving
of additional fee 1 hills i- said to be
the motive which prompts the pro
ducer to dispose of this cla-- of
horses, regardless of price. One of
the conclusions which the Department
of Agriculture draws' from the pres
ent situation is that indiscriminate
breeding of hor-es is an unprofitable
enterprise. It is essential, the depart
ment specialists add. that farmers use
wise discrimination in selecting the
proper type of stallions with which
to mate their best mares and thus ma
terially aid in producing only efficient
horses which are capable of giving the
service required of them and which
consume less valuable teed for the
amount of work performed. Such
horses have a ready market and al
ways bring good price-. It is imper
ative that the breeder who proposes
to compete with the domestic and for
eign demands after the war should
begin now to stock up his -tables with
desirable better-bred horses.

ADVANTAGE OF
MOTOR TRUCKS SHOWN
IN FARMING REPORTS
Motor truck hauls in 1918 from
farm to shipping point averaged 11.3
miles, while wagon hauls average 9
miles: and a motor truck made 3.4
round trips per day over its longer
route of 11.3 miles, while wagons
made 1.2 round trips per day over the
9-mile distance.
The estimated cdst for hauling in
wagons from farm to shipping point
a'crage in 1918 about 3<) cents a ton
a mile for wheat, 33 cdnts for corn,
and 48 cents for cotton: for hauling
in motor trucks or by tractors the av
erages are 15 cents for wheat or corn
and 18 cents a ton-mile for cotton.
These figures are based on reports
made by correspondents of the Bu
reau of Crop Estimates of the United
Department of Agriculture.
Motor Cost Declines
A similar inquiry ity 19;»6 showed
an average for wagons of 19 cents per
ton-mile for hauling wheat and 27
cents for cotton. Jn 1918 wagon co-ts
were naturally higher, since prices
and wages have increased, hut motor
truck casts were much lower in 1918
than even the wagon costs of 19,'6.
due to greater efficiency <>f the motor
truck.
I he co-t of wagon hauling a ton
mile for wheat among the geographi
divisions in 1918 was lowest in the Pa
cific states. 22 cents. Above this, in
order, are the North Central States
of the Mississippi River, with 26
cents: the West North Central State
29 cents: the West South Central
States. 32 cents: the East South Cen
tral States. 36 cents: New England
atiH the Middle Atlantic States, 38
cents: the south Atlantic States. 39
cents: and. highest of all. the Rocky
Mountain State* with 42 cents a ton
mile.
In motor-truck hauling the order of
the different divisions of the country
begins with 9 cents a ton-mile for
wheat in 1918 in the East North Cen
tral, 10 cents in the East South Con- j
tral. 14 cents m New England, the
Middle Atlantic, and the West North 1
Central, 15 cents in the West South
Central, 17 centsgin the Pacific 18
cents in the South \tlantic, and 2<>
cents m the Rocky Mountain States
Trailers Often Used
rile motor trucks generally in use
farmers are not large trucks, but
small ones' whose.nominal capacity is
usually one to two tons. In quite a
number of counties throughout the
country the trucks used for hauling
are made-over pa senger cars In
some cases light wagons are attached
as tra'*ers to ordinary passirl^er car>
and produce is taken to market in that
way. In North Dakota and Califor
nia. as well as other States, tractors
each drawing several wagons are used
especially m the West, with horse
drawn wagons.
For the United States as a whole
the average wagon load of wheat wa
55 bushels in 1906 and 56 bu-heK in
1918. and the motor-truck load in the
later years was 84 bushels. E„r , or,
the wagon loads of 1906 and 1918 were
3U. ‘‘",l ,lu> ,noto!--truck load
of 1918 was 58 bushels. The cotton
load for 1906, and 1918 for wagons
v-.s 3.4 and 3.6 bales, respectively
and^ for motor trucks 6.6 bales in

Secretary of the treasury has cre

Ray linker, Governor Hoyle. Albert
Straus of the Federal Hank Reserve,
])r. Cay of the War '1 rade Board, and
Pope V.iteman ■>( the War Industries
Hoard, have been named as the live
commissioners. T he board will be
one of great importance and internat
ional scope, and in the days following
th^ war will have much to do with
the rearrangement of not only the
monetary systems of the 1 nited
States, but of the whole world as
well.
The naming of both Mr. F.aker and

commission is a distinct honor to Ne

appreciate.
