Representative Walsh believes that the newspapers are patriotic enough to maintain a voluntary censorship, a matter of fact, hasn't it already been proved that they are? Of course, information or gossip or news that would benefit the enemy is not a proper thing for publication. But no newspaper is going to do anything that will give aid or comfort to the Prussian militarists. The freer the newspapers are, the better it will be for the whole country.—Philadelphia Inquirer.

As ANOTHER REASON FOR LOCAL GARDENING. By next fall, all our railroads will be overloaded with express and freight that must be moved. Every railroad car will be burdened with war munitions, meat products, grain, and all the manufactured goods, that must be transported from inland cities to the seaboard. There'll be a serious car shortage on every line. Flour will be waiting in Minneapolis for cars to take it to New York for the armies fighting our battle in Europe. In Chicago, Omaha, and Kansas City will be huge warehouses of grain and storage plants filled with meat, waiting for cars. Let us, as good citizens and patriotic Americans, make this car shortage less serious by growing our own food right here at home. Pittsburgh News.
