far more important is that many of the
officers of the Navy department, who were
first disposed to decry the building of sub
mergeable vessels. are today the most
earnest advocates of this particular means
for coast defense. One of the strongest
cards In favor of the building of sub
marines, which is having its effect with
the naval committee, is the fact that a
dozen boats of this character can be con-
structed while one battleship is being de-
signed, and it is now admitted that Com
mander Wainwright was right when he
said three years ago that the submarine
offers the most effective means of harbor
defense that has yet been devised.

2 Oranges of New York and Illinois Declare
Against Practice.

Two Members of House Committee

Money. but Majority Like

From a STAFF Correspondent

(FrOm a stan correspondent
WASHINGTON, Feb 17.-(Special THE
farmers of the country seem TO be awaken
ing at last to the fact that the government
seed distribution is a delusion and a snare.
Year after year congress appropriates
about $4,000 for the purchase and dis
trbution of valuable seeds" and each
senator and member has assigned to him
1860 packages, each containing FIVE pack
cts of seeds. of the commonest possible
varieties. There are usually packets of
radishes. lettuce. cucumber watermelons
and carrots, some similar vegetable.
The intrinsic value of the collection Is
fro:.. 2 to cents In each case and no
possible good is served.
Yet every attempt to cut off the dis
tribution is fought vigorously on the floor
of the house. Not one member I'm ten
really believes that the distribution should
continue, bu. not one in twenty seems TO
have the courage to vote against the item.
Now. however. the state grangers are
beginning to take part in the fight and
already New York and Illinois have de-
clared against the continuance of the
practice.
The Illinois State Grange at it's annual
session in December adopted the following
resolution:
Resolved, As practical and independent
farmers, that We call upon congress to
abolish its petty, annoying and needless
practice of broadcasting free and common
garden seeds all over the rural districts
and we ask that the control Of seed dis
tribution be placed under the Department
of Agriculture and limited to experiment
work"
Thus far two members of the house COM
mittee on agriculture. Messrs. wadsworth
and Cocks Of New York, have declared
against the continuance of the annual
squardering of money for seeds which do
no good. AS rule members use their
packages for eleetioneering purposes, and
