them promises of comfort and help.
These Red Cross dogs are especi-
ally trained for this service. En-
trance requirements are high. 1.-The
preference is usually given to sheep
dogs, says a recent issue of The
Collie Folio, land to those of good
temper and ability. But this does not
necessarily mean that every sheep
dog will make a'good ambulance dog.
Shy or aggressive dogs are USELESS.
also those who hunt game. or who
lack character"
There are various WAYS in which
these dogs are today hunting for
the wounded and making their re-
ports to headquarters. Some dogs
wear bells. When the bell ceases to
ring the master follows its last di
rection and comes upon the dog,
keeping watch beside a wounded SOL
der. Other dogs have been trained
to bark as soon as they find a man
who needs assistance; another will |
take mans cap, or something from
his pocket, and retrieve it to his
master.
The Belgian Club of Ambulance
Dogs for some time past has been
making special study of these various
methods of training, by holding COM
petitive contests, The trainers of

We must have hit "Marse Henry"
in a tender spot. a little reference
to his now famous editorial TRADE
on prohibitionists in this paper caus-
es him to use almost half column
of space in the Courier-Journal which
might well have been written by
ten year old, spoiled boy. He closes
with the crushing suggestion that
the editor of this paper should be
sent to a night school. Well, if this
should be done just as apt as not the
teacher would be one of those
"lanky, cranky, hook-nosed son-of-a-
gun prohibitionists.'

can industrial interest which has
been exposed through a long period
Of years to absolute Free-Trade. The
status of the American merchant ma
rine to-day is striking illustration
OF what would have happened, and
what will happen to any American in
dustry in which labor cost is an i'm
poriant factor, when exposed to the
/ competition OF peasant, cooli or peon
labor. The only possible result is ex-
tinction.
II the Wilson-Redfield theory were
sound, American shipping interests
would have sharpened their wits un-
der these competitive conditions,
and by cheapening the cost OF oper-
alton would have been able to meet
foreign competition. Ample capital
has gone into every promising field
OF enterprise in this country, but
cross ocean shipping has been aban-
doned, for the simple reason that 1t
is impossible for an employer to put
the Amrican wage scale in competi-
ton with the European or Oriental
wage scale, and survive the compe-
tition.
The contention that American ship
ping has DISAPPEARED from the cross
ocean traffic because of the neces-
sity of buying ships in the United
States is dishonest. Those who offer
this argument are insincere. For
years we have admitted free of duty
materials used in constructing ships
for the foreign trade. Yet we have
built no ships for that trade. The
original cost of construction of
ship as compared with the higher
cost of maintaining on ship board tie
American standard of wages and liv-
ing.
SO, we repeat, our cross ocean
shipping is a horrible example of the
effect of Free-Trade competition up
on Amrican industry. The only way
in which we can compete with coolie.
peon and peasant labor is to bring
American labor down to the peon,
peasant and coolie level This pro-
posai of the Free-Trader shows that
he places cheapness above human
welfare. above social justice, above !
itself. And the status OF |
the American cross ocean merchant |
marine illustrates the blight which
the foes of the Protective policy
put upon every phase of American
productive industry if it were posi-
BILE for them to do so.

Make the Tariff Wholly American.

The chief duty of the voters of this
country is to elect a Congress next
November that will set this country
right again.
1t is not right now. Let no one
deceive himself that it is right. Con-
dltlons are not what they should be
in land of such abundant resources.
They were not made wrong by the
war, either, although the war in Eu-
rope has affected some conditions
adversely. They were all wrong be-
fore the war came to give the party
IN power an excuse and covering of
their humiliations and retreats.
Even now we will not be able to
take advantage of the non-imports
the war imposes on us. Many of
these goods we cannot manufacture
here until we have the factories TO
do 1t in, and men are not going to nut
their money in such factories for the
short period of the war-after the
war is over they want to know that
the Tariff will be right to enable
them to continue to make things
with the higher priced American la
Dor. If the flood of imports starts
up again, as it had started before
the war, such men would be left
stranded with their factories.
The Tariff must be made to eoual
at least the difference in labor cost
here and abroad, or we will not
have the factories in America and we
VIII continue to have men out of |
work and wages in all our manufac-
uring centers.
The thing to do is to make the
Tariff wholly American and to do il
IS quickly as possible. in order that
We may resume normal manufactur-
hg and commercial conditions again.
We nave never prospered under
'ree-Trade. and until labor condi-
Ions are equalized we never will.
See that the Tariff is made right
nd that must be by electing the
Ight kind of Congress his year.

Free-Trade Blight Upon Shipping.

Eleven ships. eleven ships only
floated the flag of the United States
on the cross ocean routes when the
European war began.
AS demonstrated by the magnitude
OF our coastwise shipping, which is
second only to that OF Great Britain.
we are a great maritime nation. No
other nation possesses such a domes-
tic coastiine; no other nation has in
the past demonstrated greater posi-
biiities of sea power. Our people have
the daring that masters waters as
well as land. and curing the Napo-
ieonic wars OF century ago Ameri-
can clippers controlled the COM
merce OF the seven seas.
Our pitiable position in the cross
ocean carrying trade is due to two
causes. and two causes only; first.
he fostering care given shipping by
'oreign nations, coupled with our
'wn neglect, and second, the higher
tandard of American wages and Iiv-
ng which makes equal competition

Cannot Grow Butter Beans

bank Of the river, and very
black loan. The vines grow
luxuriantly and are full of
fine blooms, but no beans de-
velop. | have not used any

Your garden simply has an
excess of nitrogen, as is
shown by the luzuriant
growth of the vines, but it
lacks the mineral elements
that make seed. [ manure
my garden over every winter
and then apply a mixture of
four parts acid phosphate
and one part muriate Of POI
fash, at the rate of 1000
pounds an acre, and [ grow
butter beans and everything
else to perfection. But the
large white Lima beans are
never so productive in the
South as the small Lima or
butter beans, and in fact to
my taste the small Lima is
the best. | use the small
Lima for a climber and
plant Burpee's Fordhook
Bush Lima for large one
This bears we'll, and
makes very large beans
of tue Potato Lima class.
Your soil needs a balanced
ration just as the animal doe.
Give it the dressing Of acid
phosphate and potash and it
will grow butter beans free-
ly. Another corresI ondent
in eastern North Carolina
has the same trouble. He
says: "For years l have been
putting stable manure on my
garden and intended not to
do 50 this Year, but was away
