THE DUBLIN ARRAY.

Two or three months ago the us
termen executed their first great and
spectacular gun-running feat. They
landed a vast supply of arms and
munitions along the Ulster coast
Next day the London Times. a
Unionist and pro-Ulster paper, car
ried in its Belfast dispatches a great
and detailed account of the coup.
1t was huge conspiracy, in which,
manifestly, all Ulster, from the local
police up to the army officers, par
ticipated more or less openly. The
stage was set for it with the great
est care. Every detail was arranged
in advance. Ulster volunteers guard
ed the roads, modified at points
where the arms were to be put
ashore, handled every detail with
out interference or hitch.
That performance could not pos
sibly have been carried out if the
army authorities in the northern
province had not been decidedly
friendly. 1t was, all in all, an even
better demonstration of the essential
disloyalty of the military to the gov
eminent than the amazing perform
ance of the army officers in demand
ing guarantees that they would not
be required to serve against the U.S.
ter "army."
How different the case on Sunday
in Dublin, when the Irish nationalist
volunteers undertook a little gun
running exploit of their own! The
soldiery was on hand, as ready to
fire as were the redcoats on that
fateful day in April, IT'S, outside
of Boston! They had been served
with ball cartridges, and used them
freely, with the result that one moe
Dublin massacre is added to the
bloody record of efforts to maintain
British dominance in Ireland.
The Dublin ARRAY will almost GER
tainly end all hope of agreement on
the home rule amending bill now
pending in parliament. 1t will ac-
centuate the hostility between the
Irish Nationalists and the Irish
Unionists, as well as between the
Liberals and the Unionists in Great
Britain. Already exasperated by
the realization that the house of
commons has been in turn defied by
the lords and the army officers, and
that the King has sought to project
himself personally into the situation
with the purpose of supporting this
defiance, the liberal masses of Brit
ain today realize that the rank and
file of the army cannot be relied
upon to sustain the program of
peace and moderation.
There could hardly have been a
more distressing incident, fraught
with graver political consequences,
than the shooting in Dublin. 1t will
bring the United Kingdom nearer to
civil war than it has been at any
time since the Irish situation be
came acute.

CASH FORCROP MOVING.

A year ago the Secretary OF the
Treasury announced that the Gov
eminent was ready to deposit $780,
100000 in the banks to help them
move the crops. They would be re-
quired to turn over as security for it
10 per cent of the deposited amount
in Government bonds, and CONNER
cial paper at Sc cents on the dollar
for the balance. The Government
would charge 2 per cent interest on
the deposits, and the money must be
returned in six months.
Many banks found it difficult, at
reasonable rates, to possess them
selves of Government bonds. The
national banking system has pro-
vided such insistent uses for Gov
eminent bonds that they are not al
ways easily to be come at when
needed. Their rate of actual earning
is so low that banks find little object
in holding them unless they are used
as basis for circulation or guarantee
of deposits. To buy them in order to
use them as security for short-time
deposits was generally regarded as
a doubtful experiment.
So this year, in order to induce a
more general distribution of the
crop-moving fund, Government bonds
are excluded from the conditions.
Commercial paper, at the rate OF 70
cents on the dollar, instead of IS,
will be accepted as security.
The s50,O0O,00o offered to the
banks last year was not all called
for, and this year the Treasury un-
dertook to learn how much money
would be needed, and where. The
replies from bankers who were asked
these questions indicated that $S4,-
100000 would be enough.
None of these deposits will be
made in New England and Eastern
banks. The West and South will get
all the money because those sections
are the ones that need it. Even in
these regions, many of the bankers
replied that their own resources
would be ample for the movement Of
the crops.
Increasing financial independence
in the middle and farther West has
wrought a vast change since the days
when the crop-moving season
brought insistent demands on the
Eastern financial centers. and when
huge sums were actually transported
to the grain States. 1t is not diff
cult to explain the change. Greater
crops and very much higher prices
have carried an annually increasing
stream of money to the West and
South. The upouilding of diversified
interests aside from agriculture has
kept a great part Of it there. Doubt
less it would be found, on a careful
examination, that the automobile
manufacturing business, which is
largely between the Alleghanies and
the Mississippi river, has been con-
siderable factor in keeping the
Vests money away from the East.
At any rate, the old dependence of
West on East for money at certain
seasons is mainly a thing of the
past.

RETURNS FROM WORK HORSES
Many Little Points Are Enumerated d
That viii Lessen Cost Of Animal
Labor on the Farm.

CBy A. II. BENTON, Assistant Agricui.
turist University Farm, ST. Paul,
Mimi
One Of the most frequent sources OF
loss on the farm is insufficient return
from work horses.
Have you satisfied yourself on the
following points?
Do your horses earn enough to pay
for their feed and care, and enough
to meet the interest. depreciation and
other expenses, as harness costs and
shoeing?
1t costs 500 annually to keep the
average horse, in Minnesota, but this
horse works only a little more than
three hours each working day. This
makes the horse labor cost approx.
mately ten cents an hour.
Do you handle the horse labor on
your farm 80 that the annual cost OF
keeping your horse is less than the
average, or SO that the number oi
hours worked is greater? Both meth
DDS will reduce the cost OF the horse
labor. but the latter offers by far the
greatest opportunity.
Can you revise your cropping sys
TEN SO that fewer work horses will be
needed, or SO that the work will be
more equally distributed and thus
make It possible to employ them more
hours each year?
Can you raise colts and thus reduce
the cost OF keeping your horses?
Can you arrange to use your work
horses for outside work when not busy
on the farm?
Can you reduce the cost OF keeping
each horse by feeding less feed OF
cheaper feed and still give a proper
ration?
Farm work done with fewer horses
means a saving OF 500 q year fol
each horse not needed.

VETCH Is IMPORTANT CROP

(By A. sMITH.)
Vetch should occupy an important

Soo fields, vetch has consistently made
heavier growths and greater yields
than crimson clover, red clover, or
bur clover, although under favorable
conditions these have done we'll.
Vetch is high In protein content, is
a good hay, pasture, and soiling crop,
and Its more general growth would

stock industry and remove much of
the existing necessity for buying hay
Vetch is used as cover crop to pre-
vent the teaching and washing of soils

Do not think OF using anything but

about 2 pounds OF sugar to one pint

II the feeding is deferred until cool
weather has set in. the sirup will. OF
necessity. have to be a somewhat
thicker consistency. for the bees will
not be able TO evaporate the super

Humus Needed.

The amount OF water a soil will
hold against gravity depends upon
the type Of soil. A clay soil composed
OF fine particles with very small spaces
will retain more water than a coarser
sander soil composed Of larger par
ticles and larger spaces. Also. the
amount Of humus. or decomposed or

the water holding capacity. The more
