Walter G. Hamm, American consul al

Walter G. Hamm, American consul at
Newcastle Tyne, discusses in the
Daily Consular and Trade Reports the
preiudices which English people have
held against green corn. Only now,
saws he, are there indications that this
contempt for food priced in America is
giving away to intelligent apprecla-
ton. Sweet corn, on the cob and can
ned, is at last appearing on tables and
canned corn is actually being featured
in grocers' windows. Onl va short time
ago attempts were made by American
exporters to establish corn trade In
the English counties, but without sue.
cess. Most of the consumers ridiculed
the food while the working people could
not understand why Americans ate
green corn--a product, in their estlma-
ton, fit only for cattle.
The green corn conquest Of England
recalls the struggles which other arti-
cles Of food went through before they
were popularity accepted. We here in
the United States really do not appre-
ciate our ample list of foods to which
some nations are strangers. Even the
banana is victim both of misunder-
standing and trade restriction The
United States annually consumes mill
lions of punches of bananas. They sell
here for as low as ten cents dozen.
Yet in France bananas are a luxury.
Grape fruit is looked on with doubt IN
Germany Over there they say that
grape fruit is bitter Perhaps we have
had to acquire taste for it, But
the consumption Of grape fruit is in
sreasing year by year.
Prejudice against certain articles OF
food is not uncommon in this part of
the world. The history of the garden
tomato is evidence of this. Grand
mothers today can remember the time
when the tomato was the 'sIndian love
apple" and nothing more. Perhaps the
day is coming when we shall eat with
relish fruits and articles of food which
we now disregard or perhaps regard
with fear. Luther Burbank and the
other great horticulturists are making
aristocrats out of plebeian plants. Bur
bank has made the cactus bear as a
fruit tree. 1t is well for us to take
heart when we contemplate present
food prices. When eggs and meat
prices become prohibitory we may find
nutritious substitutes. - Indianapolis

Congressman Cooper is of the opinion
chat an appropriation should be made
in the next river and harbors bill large
enough to permit carrying out the
plans for the improvement of Racine
and Kenosha harbors made by the gov
ernment engineers years ago. In order
that the claims of the two cities may
be properly presented he has asked for
special hearing by the river and har-
Dor committee at which time represen-
tatives of the two cities are expected
to appear and make formal demand
for increased appropriations. Ample
notice of the time of the hearing will
be given so that the men interested in
the improvement of the local harbor
will have plenty of time to decide on
their representatives and get their
facts and figures ready to present to
the committee, The representative is
certainly entitled to the strongest kind
of backing from his home cities in this
effort to secure an increased appropria-
ton for neeuo>. -4uptovements, and his
efforts will be of little avail before
the committee unless it is shown by
the attendance of local committees
that there is demand for the i'm
provements in the cities to be bene-
fitted.

THE SWISS SYSTEM.

A deca1e or. so ago, the British
government sent a commission to
Switzerland to study the Swiss mill
tary system. In Switzerland mill
tary service is compulsory, but it
is SO organized as to interfere as lit
tie as possible with the civil occu-
pations of the men. In the Swiss
service, strict democracy is the rule.
The British army is organized as an
aristocracy; gentlemen and the sons
Of gentlemen claim the official ranks
without particular consideration Of
merit. One result of this is that
early in the war heavy losses Of Of
ficers have become !, grave feature
Of the British situation; there are
not enough trained MEN in the ranks
to assume the responsibilities IF Of
fetal rank. Tommy Atkins doesn't
look upon his career as one of op-
portunity; he il good soldier,
godd "non-ocm," but he doesn't as
rire higher. In Switzerland, on the
other hand, the son of a peasant is
liable to be in command over the
son of the richest man in his canton.
The organization Is absolutely demo-
cratic, and as result no opprobrium
attaches to the uniform OF to service
in it. ............
Just now there is beginning to be
tardy appreciation of the fact that
such system would be an cxcellcrt
thing for our own army. We need
not great tsandilig army, but an
efficient small army, which may be
increased in numbers by drawing in
a large reserve Of we'll trained meg.
The Swiss system applied to our sit
uation would produce such a class of
trained soldiers.
The demand for more trained SOL
diers, subject to the call of the Gov
eminent in time of need. can be met
without greatly adding to The cost
of the system; but it can only be
done by making L completely new
system, and the Swiss furnishes the
model that deserves Stndy.

Most of it has gon, to Europe, and
The surmise that it is not wanted for

likely erroneous. Barbcd wire, es-
pecially, is one of the important i'm
plements Of war nowadays, and
when battle lines 200 to 300 miles
long require constant construction
and restoration of barbcd-wirc en-
tanglements it is easy to understand
why the wire manufacturers express
confidence that business is going to
