NAVIES' BIG PART IN WARS.
Outcome of This Struggle to Depend

London.-What part will, the navies
Of the world play in the European con

The surest way to get at the answer
is to examine the part navies have
played In other Ears and those who
turned over the pages of their histories
yesterday. If they went back far
enough. found that twenty great sea
fights have nodded the history of the
world and determined the national
boundaries of the globe.

United States was to be placed COM

war the Union men of war rendered
invaluable service to the military by
blockading the coast, and finally two

To Lord Nelson was given the task
of coping with the great French fleet
and frustrating the purpose Of NapO-

While Nelson was watching Toulon

PEANUT FARM PROFITABLE.
Total Yield In Oklahoma Is Worth
Thousands OF Dollars,

Oklahoma City.-Although planting
Of peanuts has been delayed To some
extent by the heavy rains, the reports
that are received from many sections
Of the state where peanuts are being
grown are highly encouraging, and II
Is expected that the total yield this
year will be greater than that of last
year by half.
The soil throughout the state is In
such excellent condition that there will
be a great amount Of late planting,
which will make splendid yields, and
In sections Of the state where cotton
and other crops have been seriously
damaged by the heavy rains, and
where replanting Of those crops is
likely to prove a losing venture, it has
been suggested that peanuts be plant
ed, as they will thrive in weather cob
ditions that would prove detrimental
to other crops.

"Albert s. Osborn, author of 'Ques-
toned Documents and an authority
on the subject, declares that the forg-
cry loss in this country for the year
1O11 is fully SIS, 5,OOO,OOO," writes Frank
Marshall White in the Munsey. In an
article, "The Day of the ForgeT," the
writer quotes Osborn as saying:
Clever penmen are leaving trail Of
bad checks reaching from Portland,
Me-, to Portland, Ore. Banks and ho-
tells are naturally the shining marks
Of the forger; but nearly, if not
quite, as much money is paid out on
forgeries by individuals, small store
keepers, and business houses as by all
the banks and hotels combined. A
large proportion, especially of the
unreported forgeries, is in amounts
of less than 500. If the forger Of
small check has vanished, and only
a doubtful clue remains, the natural
impulse is not to send good money
after bad" In most cases, nothing Is
done, and the criminal goes on his
way unhampered and unafraid. Banks
naturally do not care to have 1t
known that they pay out customers
money on forged paper, and if the
forger is gone they are not inclined
10 take much trouble to find him."
