AMONG THE.
NEW MAGAZINES
The War At Close Range

In the December number of
Everybody's Magazine, Frederick
Palmer continues his articles on
conditions in Europe, under the
subject 1.-The Grim Business of
War" Mr. Palmer is now in
Germany, in an attempt not only
to report war news from behind
the German lines, but to discover
at first hand, conditions resulting
from the war, in Berlin, and else
where. The article pictures at close
range the work of the trenches, and
sums up the strategy and the re-
suits of the first three months of
fighting. 1t gives us realistic
glimpses of Europe at war. Ex-
tracts are given below:
"In the morning of the war
every officer and soldier was fresh
with energy, as the runner is fresh
from the rubber s hand at the start
of race. The officers of all the
armies unnecessarily exposed them
selves. Each nation rejoiced in
those early exploits of abandoned
courage which proved that the old
spirit survived. Troops going into
their first charges swept on in for
nations whose fearful exposure
was all very well for maneuvers,
but not against modern artillery,
rife. and machine-gun fire:
"Old heads expected this. Tenn
erity was better than timidity at
the start. Germany had her exhibit
of the folly of needless bravery be-
fore Liege and in the daring of
the Crown Prince s army before
French trenches; France had hers
in the first rush Of German trenches
against Alsace; Russia hers in East
Prussian; England hers in the
charge of the Ninth Lancers, which
unlike that of the Light Brigade
was not because someone had blum.
dered, but because they wanted tc
do it. Each nation gave its press
only the story of the charges that
succeeded. 1t left untold those OF
the defamation Of battalions. regi

ments and brigades to no purpose.
"With the Aisne, the mental ec-
tasy and physical ardor of the
troops were spent. Discomfort and
hardship became the commonplace
of existence. German officers who
started out with dress-suit cases
following them on motor-trucks
were glad to have toothbrush and
comb in their pockets. English
officers who had rubber baths and
aiamas and mattresses in their
kits found it a luxury to sleep In
haymow and get off their boots.
Soldiers who had looked so neat as
they left their mobilization depots
were grimy and bearded.
There was an end to the sport of
war. It has become a business, an
occupation. The courage Of i'm
pulse had passed. In its place had
come the courage of wisdom, of
grim. tactical cunning and deter
hination. All commanders had
passed the word for officers to take
care not to expose themselves un-
necessarily. An officer is a piece
of property, costly to train, not
easily replaced" "
"Tf one could sail low in a
plane over the French and German
front in France, one might say this
was not war at all that it was a
competition in excavation; that
these armies were not composed of
men, but of rodents. He would see
little ganglia of troops and trans
ports on the roads back of human
warrens, and groups of guns be-
| hind the cover of hills and woods,
now silent. now firing leisurely,
now rapidly. at a a point hidden in
the smoke of bursting shells and
! the dust of trenches rising heaven
ward; which would mean that one
or the other was attacking today
and trying to gain little advan-
tage. The vista would seem hard
! ly more warlike to the eye than
blasting and digging a railroad cut.
It might suggest rival villages of
! beavers and prairie dogs. "
"Day and night some force must
be in the frontal trenches eyeing
the enemy venomously. The army
becomes divided into watches like
the navy. Those off duty are
away from the murk and stencil of
the trench, yet near at hand, ready
to rush back at the first alarm.
They have such shelter as they can
make; or if they have luck and
the frontal trench is on the out
skirts of a village, the chance of
war gives them a house and its
comforts. There is everywhere
the comradeship of patriotism.
The men play cards; they break
into song. Sometimes they get let
ters from home, censored; some
times they get newspapers, censor
ed They know almost nothing Of
the progress of the war as whole
only of what is going on in their
little world, as isolated as that OF
an arctic exploring party snow.

REPORT OF THE AGRI-
CULTURAL COMMITTEE
At Meeting of Board of Trustees
The Experiment Station

1t is with regret that | state my
conviction that this division of the
Agricultural Department has not
maintained the high standard of
work which characterized it short
!y after its reorganization. This
has been brought about entirely by
the demands made upon the sta
ton men for extension work and
for teaching. 1t is impossible to do
high grade research work when the
workers attention is divided along
two other lines Of endeavor. The
Office Of Experiment Stations has
not as yet definitely criticized this
important phase Of our activities,
and | trust that the tendency to
negl glect it can be corrected before
the authorities at Washington will
have an opportunity to do so.
| have hoped that, as time went
on, it would be possible to differen-
tiate between the extension worker,
the teacher. and the research man.
AT present, however, the demands
for extension work and for teach
ing are so pressing that the re-
search man has been relegated to
an unimportant place. Under the
conditions existing at present, it is
impossible to make any radical
changes. However, / wish to call
the attention of the trustees to the
Station S affairs, and have them
make some suggestions towards i'm
prOvement.

RecOmme enddtaOnS

AS Dean and Director | would
suggest, therefore, that they ask
the State for an appropriation of
$4,000 per year, for maintenance of
the agricultural department, this
money to be used primarily in car
rying those desirable activities of
the department which are not al
lowed under the regulations con-
-cerning the disbursement of Fed
eral funds. This would enable the
farm as whole to be Independent
of the Office of Experiment Sta
tions, whose representatives would
no longer ask to direct the expendi-
ture of the farm sales.
Very respectfully submitted,
H. Hayward.
Newark post., 1914-11-25

When this policy is carried out
by the State it will relieve the ten
sion under which the agricultural
department has been for sometime,
and will materially raise our stand
ing with the authorities at Wash
ington. which is necessary if we are
to render our maximum amount Of
effective service to the State. You
will readily see that the Expert
ment Station could hardly be al
lowed to carry the farm and all its
activities, especially when it is
called upon to render services to
the other departments of the Col
lege; for example, the farm teams
and men have been engaged for
practically a month, with the ex-
ception of a few days, upon the
grounds of the Women College,
and in the erection Of the poultry
plant at the College Farm; and
neither of these at present are con-
nected with Station work.

The Farm

The Farm
The farm still continues to at
tract a large number of people, and
the addition of the poultry plant
will undoubtedly attract thousands
more. There is a feeling on the
part of most people that the farm
is valuable asset to the State. and
of course it is our earnest desire
that this feeling should obtain thru
out the whole State if at all possible
The peach crop the past season was
unusually large; the harvest
amounting to about $500 baskets.
The prices, however, were low, the
crop bringing in, in round num-
bers. $4,000. Much of the fruit
was of the highest class, and added
a great deal Of valuable data to that
which has been accumulating for
the past four years. Six acres of
alfalfa have recently been started.
and. as the stand is unusually good
it is hoped that this will be another
attractive feature Of the College
Farm. The herd is increasing in
size and value. A number of good
sales have been made during the
past five months. 1t is the prac-
.tice of the farm officially to test
promising individuals of the herd
as they come into profit. One
heifer, bred by the College, is now
under test and her record for the
first six months is worthy of more
than passing notice. In this time,
she has produced 6096 lbs. of milk
and $50 lbs. Of butter. When it is
appreciated that the average COW
makes 40 lbs. Of butter in a year,
and that this heifer has made $50
lbs. in six months, we realize what
this record means.
1t may be of interest for the trus-
tees to know that the College Farm
has Just sold a pair of Percherons
for $500. In this connection il
may be added that, since the farm
was purchased for the use of the
College, $4,000 has been spent fol
registered horses the farm has solo
Iregistered horses amounting tc
,$5592 and. at the present time, we
have pure bred horses valued al
about $3.50.
The building, as stated in a pre-
vious report, are beginning to show
the effect of wear, and it is hoped
that they, can all be repaired dur
ing the coming winter Roads ant
walks are also needed to accommo
date the increasing number of Wis
itors who are coming to the farm
each year. The farm must now b.
considered more or less of a shov
place. The people of the State ex
pect it to look well at all times. |
is impossible to keep it up to higl
standard without considerable ex
pense, and it might be well for tn
trustees to decide upon policy il
this regard.
1t should be borne in mind tina
the College farm is used by the Col
lege for instructional work as wei
as by the Station for investiga
tional work and that, in conse
quence, the College or the Stat
, should share in its maintenance. L
fact, it is necessary that something
definite in this direction should b
done at an early date, inasmuch a

DECLINE OF I'M
PORTS AND EXPORTS

y great many people are under the
impression that the European war has
but little effect upon the business
of our country. The following fig
ures are the exports from the port
OF New York to the countries now at
war, showing the difference in ex-
ports for the month of September,
1918 and 1914. In SEPT. 1913 New
York exports to Germany were Sc
342 ,622, in Sept. 1914 they had fallen
to $1,000. New York exported to Bel
gium in Sept. 1913. s2.5S1.936. In
Sept 1914 not one dollar was export
ed. Austria in Sept. 1913 imported
from n. Y. $99S.41O Sept 1914,

These figures only show the fall
ing off in exports from the New
York port alone; all the American
ports Of export will show a CORES
ponding decline.
With this decline in imports and
exports, brought about by circum-
stances over which our government
has no control and from which a
deficiency tax must be raised for
governmental expenses.

A NIGER IN THE WOOD PILE

ton naturally arises, by whom and
why? THIS question is easy to ans
wer. The sugar trust, Of course, be-
cause he refused to countenance by
his vote the continuance OF the pay
ment OF dividends on their watered

consumers, and ii ever a man de-
served reelection it is Senator
Thomas.
John d. Rockefeller is the main is
sue in this election. This kind old
gentleman. who made millions upon
millions in money and ruined com
petitors by scores through the dam
nable system OF secret rebates, is
back of two movements in this COM
ing election. First through his in
strument, the Colorado Fuel & Iron
company, the organization known as
the United Mine Workers association
is marked for determination. Second,
Prohibition, with its infamous pro-
visions giving the right of search
and seizure in the private homes OF
Colorado.
Both these moves are a direct blow
at personal liberty and are backed by
this kind old philanthropist under
cover. 1t is up to the voters OF this
