1nciting People Against Jews.

Q
 A correspondent, cabling from Odessa says that the local Black Hun dred has just published, absolutely free from any censorial restraint, the most pestilent anti-Semitic broad sheet that has ever appeared in this country-and that is saying not a little.
 It is alike a disgrace to Russian Journalism and to the local authori- ties who sanction its circulation among the unenlightened proletariat' It has no other object whatever than the vile and gross villification and ca lumniation of the Jews, against whom 1t brings from week to week, the most abominable and probably false and foul charges. It's openly avowed raison d'etre is to provoke wholesale end sanguinary program.
 It breaches a terror that is intended to make tho lives of the Odessa Jews uncomfortable, and compel them to flee the city. There is, of course, lit tie or no danger that this utterly rab- i'd, course and bloodthirsty publica- tion of the Black Hundred will en- compass it's ferocious purpose; but what must one think of the higher authorities who complacently toler- ate it's mischievous existence?
 Almost from day to day the same authorities penalize by fine or inn prisonment the editors and publishers of the respectable and we'll conduct ed daily press for their indiscreet treatment of political questions but a pestiferous and maliciously menda- cious publication like the Odessa "Znamya" is accorded special and plenary freedom for the dissemination of it's monstrous libels upon the Jews.
 German Birth Rate.
 A memorandum on the causes Of the decline in the number of births in Germany has been drawn up by the medical department of the minist- ry for the interior. The government has not yet decided how the document shall be published, but some of the methods proposed as a means of stop ping the decline have already been made known.
 It is proposed for example that a campaign be organized with the ob- feet of informing the public of the consequences, from every standpoint of the decline in the birth rate It is further proposed that the efforts to combat infant mortality be organized on a more extensive scale, that annual grants of money be made to officials with large families and that rebate of taxes be made to greater ex- tent than at present to fathers oi large families.

Reclamation of Worn Out Soils.
John LOngIey, 14.)

(JOnn LOngley, I4.)
 One of the greatest questions that confronts the farmers of today is that of returning and maintaining the lost fertility of the worn out soils all over the country. Under the system of homesteading, man did not have to stay in one place long. The farm was a mine and when the plant food was mined out by heavy crops and improper cultivation, the farmer merely moved westward prospecting for newer and more fertile fields. But with the increase of population, all most all the tillable government land has been taken up, and we ask, Where may these new farmers and immigrants settler
 The answer to the above questions will be found if you visit some of the rural distrcts abandoned years ago by our grandfathers. As you pass along the road, you look across the fields of growng crops, the meadows green with clever, the grassy slope affording pasture for the sleek, pure bred cattle; and you contrast the scene with another in the same set ting only few years ago: What is now the productive field was then a mere waste; the clover meadow a marsh; the pasture a bare hillside; the cattle scrawny and half starved. Leaving the beautiful, we'll cultivated field behind, you soon come to an orchard, where all kinds of fruits, from a strawberry to an apple, are grown on what was a rocky hillside, the mate to the pasture we left be- hind. Beyond the orchard we find a neat farm home, which, with it's beau tiful flower beds, shade trees. garden and harm ters plainly that an intelli- gent and independent farmer lives there.

INSURGENTS ARE
ALSO CONFIDENT
Attorney Smith of Springfield
Says Head Officers Have
Nothing on Woodmen.

"Woodmen insurgency has only one
object, and that is to defeat the pres
ent head camp officers and make sure
that there will be no increase in the
rates of insurance in the order" de-
clared +. :. Smith. attorney for and
leader of the Modern Woodmen in
surgents in a statement printed in
the Springfield Record.
Mr.. Smith, says the Record.
laughed at the statement of Assistant
Head Clerk Mcnamara that there
would be a division among the insurg-
ents in the Toledo head camp meeting
in June. Shown McNamaras state
ment that the Illinois insurgents did
not have the support of a single other
state delegation and that the Mime
sofa delegation reported ''insurgent,"
would not join with Illinois. but would
follow John l.. Sunbeam, a Minnesota
leader. Mr.. Smith said:
MIR. Mcnamara is absolutely posi-
tive that the head camp will win.
Well. when il comes TO confidence he
has nothing on us. And while we ad-
nit freely his contention that we have
nothing TO show but claims, it ought
not to be overlooked that only his
word supports the head camp assur-
ance of success"
Mr.. Smith explained that the insur-
gent campaign contemplated first the
election of an insurgent head camp.
The next step, he said he believed,
would be the adoption of an amend
ment TO the charter of the order,
making it forever impossible to alter
the rates OF insurance in the order
without a referendum vote of the
whole membership.

IMPERIAL
TIRE FACTS

Due to the fact that we under.
took to sell automobile tires at
reasonable prices, many of orr
customers have come to us with
the statement that they had
been informed that we were sell
ing Seconds" Or in other
words-untrustworthy merchan-
disc.
In order to eliminate for once and all
SO positively ridiculous a statement xs
desire to announce to the motor car own
ers.-in the most specific terms possIsl,
that the tires we are selling. carry idep-
tically the same 1880 mile guarantee as
any other tire on the market
We therefore claim: That. being I'll.
guarantee is equal, the price is an ALSO
lutte saving for the car owner
AS reference allow us to suggest that
you ask any motorist whose car is either
fully or partially equipped with 'Imperiar
casing purchased from US, whether or no,
he has had the desired service
We have had but two adjustments since
he have sold tires. both of which were ad-
justed to the satisfaction of the purchaser,
within 80 minutes time. The purchaser
was not only supplied with the promise that
something would be done, but in fact was
supplied with a new casing.
In conclusion, we would ask the motor
list to think il over" and answer for him
self whether this ever happened to him on
tire claims of other makers.
