WILL. AIRSHIPS PROMOTE
 WAR?

Those peace advocates whu hold that the use of airSlIipS ii, war should De forbidden forget one nf the truths of history. As implements of warfare become more deadly and effective. war has become less frequent and in trrnatiUnal disputes have more often been settled pcacrably. The most civilized nations now have the most modern and most cf- fcctive implements If warfare "". 'h"v least often fight; the least civilized nations are most backward i'll warlike methods and They most often fight. The semi barbariSm of Crnirai. America. Hayti. Sanlo Domingo and the tropical republics rninci,irS wit less efficient and more poorly equipped armies, and in those countries war iS most frequent.
 The addition of airShips ln the equipment of armies will increase the reluctance of the most civ lliZed nations to use their arm- lcS. This reluctance iS due part iy 10 the development of civiliZ- alton, which has produced d kcener realization of the horrors of war and the blessings of peace. But a greater restraining influ- ence is the arduous labor and great cost of putting in opera tiOn such complicated machines as modern armies. The task is so great as tn compel delibcra- tiOn, which often leads to nrgo- tiation and a decision not Iu fight after all.
 The cost of war exercises as great d restraining influence on inc warlikr impulse as any nlh- rr cause. Su far as airShips in- crease this cost. il will deter nations from fighting. The iinan- cine of war has become far more serious matter lhau when lrlIlal lord simply had iO summon his knights. nirn-al- arms and archrrS Iu his stand ard and they needed but to bur niSh up their arms.

BIG PROFIT FROM
ONE BUSHEL OF SEED

Webster City, Oct. 23.-When Frank
Bickford bid 500 for a single bushel
of prize seed corn at the last short
course, held in this city in January,
tillers of the soil long in experience,
came to the young man, literally with
tears in their eyes, and advised him
that he had made an awful mistake by
purchasing gold brick There were
those who admired Bickford's nerve
but they were unable to figure where
he would realize paying returns. -
Young Bickford was not to be
daunted in his purpose by these dis
couraglng remarks. He evidently had
full realization of what he was I'M
dertaking, and as the history Of that
bushel of corn now shows, he has paid
for the corn, and will have realized
over 5000 profits within a very few
weeks. Besides this he has gained a
reputation as seed corn grower, and
that at very youthful age.

bushels more wheat this year than last

sas, one of the leaders of the third
party movement, spoke here last

changed and the men who were
against Taft when Roosevelt was
pushing him were now his chief sup
porters.

Mccormick, who begged to be allowed
to be called revolutionist if Jane
Adams, Judge Ben Lindsay and
Colonel Roosevelt were to be called
