In substance: that Sheridan always
knew more about the location and
strength Of the enemy than any Of
us; he is perfectly competent to man
age any campaign and to command
any number of men of all arms"
Great Britain covered Roberts with
titles, ribbons, crosses, starts and
garters.
The congress of the United States
revived the rank of General of the
Army" which had never been be-
slowed on any officers save Grant
and Sherman and gave it to Sheridan.
Great guns in battle fred the last
statutes to Roberts as he died.
The boom of sobbing surges
against the shuddering shore made
the last laliaby for Sheridan as his
stormy soul was passing.
England is thinking now how diff
fe1ent things would have been today
had Earl Roberts advice during the
past dozen years been accepted and
followed.
Had it been, England would now
have 100000 trained soldiers; she
would have avoided losing thousands
of officers and men which she is suf-
fering beca Sc unframed men are be-
ting hurled against a perfectly trained
foe. Indeed, we doubt exceedingly if
there had been any war. had Great
Britain been thus prepared.
Certainly our country should be
learning very fast the old truth that
the best possible guarantee of peace
is to be ready for war. Without any
war a year for a youth in camp is
the very best possible closing year
of his education. It fits him for
peace as we'll as for war 1t is best
| for his health, improves his bearing
and gives him the initiative which is
necessary to begin life right.
It is the cheapest and most neces-
sary insurance policy that nation
can take out.

NAME THE FARM

The custom of naming tho farm is
spreading all over the United States.
Iowa is probably ahead Of other states
at present but its lead is threatened.
Farmers. are not naming their, place
for mere sentimental sake although
that has a lot 70 do with the choice
of name. The farmer, recognizes the
advertising value that a good farm
name creates. Charles Dillon Of the
Kansas Agricultural college pointed
to this feature when he said: g..
F. Why don't you advertise, Mr..
Farmer? Get q name for, your farm
land then advertise your farm by that
name. Suppose you choose the name
Fairview. Then luy under the name
Fairview, sell under the name Of Fair
view, have your butter marked Fair
view, print Fairview on your berry
boxes and have eggs marked Fair
view, paint Fairviews on your wagon,
boxes and have Fairview printed on
your letter-heads and envelopes. It
wont be LONG. before the name Of
your farm is known and the people
will be calling for your products. The
town merchant advertises and the
farmer can Just as we'll advertise his
butter eggs and produce"
7 Pick out good name and let us
know. We will publish 1t and that
will pre-empt the title for your sole
use. Just for starter we will sug-
gest few names: 7.."

"BOBS" AND LITTLE PHIL"

The men of England called Field
Marshall Earl ROBBERS "Bobs" as
Americans called General Sheridan
Little Phil" thirty-five years ago.
The two men were much alike as
soldiers. There were but few
months difference in the dates of
their birth, they were about the same
height and size; they were both born
soldiers and were of the same order
of soldiers. When an enemy was
before them their natural instinct
was to fight him and after defeating
him to chase him to his lair and
take him.
Roberts never planned and fought
and won a grander battle than that of
Five Forks. Roberts never met in
the field such fighters as Sheridan
did on that day at Five Forks.
Roberts great Kandahar campaign,
for which he was gratefully given
an earldom, was not more difficult,
nor attended with so much suffering
as Sheridan's winter campaign
against the cheyennes. Roberts never
fought so terrible a battle as Sheri-
dan fought at Stone river, where
Sheridan's division was assailed by
the fighting Cleyburn's whole corps,
and maintained the furiouc onset I'M
til three, Of his brigade commanders,
seventy general officers and nearly
oneshalf Of the rank and file of his
division, were killed or wounded. He
also lost some guns and reporting
to his superior officer he said: II
never abandoned the guns until all
the horses and alltbut sixteen of the
gunners. were killed -.,g rul ran
At Chattanooga he was ordered to
charge and II possible carry the outer
works in front Of the enemy's cen
ter. He stormed the works, but never
paused until he swept the heights be-
fore him and put, the enemy to flight.
His cavalry was, the cover of the
van and the flank of the army in the
terrible Wilderness battles.
He swept round Lees army, dis
persed "Jeb" Stewards cavalry. at
Yellow Tavern, where Stewart was
killed; fought and won the battle of
Winchester, made Cedar Creek
famous in song and story and planned
and fought the last great battle of the
war at Five IL rks. a H..
Before Five Forks, Grant received a
dispatch at headquarters. He read It
and turning to Meade said: "Sheri-
dan wants to strike the enemy in his
front near Petersburg. Meade said:
What If Lee, seeing the peril, strips
his entertainments Of men and strikes
sheridan's fank?" With grim
smile Grant replied: "He says he
will lick HI out of him"
It is no disparagement to Earl
Robests to compare him with General
Sheridan. Sheridan made his cavalry !
a really distinct arm of the service
and taught 1t when necessary to lis
and fight as infantry, supply
ing the model which is now the rule
in all European armies; his principal
battles were against soldiers infiitely
superior to any that Lord Roberts
ever fought, and Grant put on record

WHAT FOOLS SOME OF
US MORTALS BE!

In Sundays dispatches was an ac-
count by German banker of the re-
cent raising in Germany of an I'M
paralleled great loan from the people
to the government. In his statement
the banker remarked that for several
decades Germany had been accumu-
lating vastly more wealth than either
Great Britain or France.
The first question awakened by
that statement is, "How has that been
possible?" The answer is easy. Ger
many has caught the secret Of max
ing valuable goods by mixing and fus-
ing cheap raw material with German
brains. She has perfected her manu-
facturies with needed machinery; to
this she has added thorough know
ledge of chemistry and the graces
that come of art schools, schools of
design and textile schools which en-
ables her to produce goods in the best
form and when color effects are need
ed to adjust the colors. Then she
has provided merchant ships to car
ry away her finished products to peo-
pies who are unskilled in the arts
with which her artisans are familiar,
to exchange her goods for money and
for such raw material as she needs
in her factories. .,.
And she has kept her ships running
regularly and when, in themselves
they did not pay, she has paid them
bounties to keep them running, that
the trade might not stop and that her
merchants in foreign lands might
certainly promise when any goods
that might be wanted and which they
did not possess would be forthcoming.
The immediate effects have been
that she has been continually, build
ing larger and feeter ships and has
been covering her not naturally rich
soil with more and more factories,
making work for all her swiftly-in-
,creasing population. lii ii ,.a.rss
i In. the meantime she has been en-
abled from the profits to build .
great war as we'll as merchant navy
oiid to train 1900 900 Of her people
to perfection as soldiers and sailors,
and nov when the stress Of a grsas
war is upon her. by q single call the
people who have been engaged in the
arts Of peace are able to loan to the
Fatherland a sum that has no parallel
in the world's history.
There would have not been the
difficulty on the part of our
government and people in pursuing
the same course, but while the work
and the results have been in plain
sight, our government and people
have like sleep-walkers been looking
on, but seeing nothing.
AND even now, when the opportun1-
ty Of century is open before us,
see how we are, as nation, meeting
it. The chief magistrate Of the ma
ton admits that we should have Q
merchant marine commensurate with
our place among the nations, but in
sists that there must be neither boun-
ties, nor subcidies promised to sustain
it, failing utterly to see that It is the
only possill connecting link between
our foreign and domestic trade, and
that to keep up that trade in Its pres
emit hating way costs in money, which
Is lost to Us forever, annually, enough
TO establish a great empire in twenty /
years, and the majority Of sleep
walkers in congress look on, seeing
and applaud his view.
