ARMY IS SHCRT
CHIEF OF STAFF OF THE UNITED
STATES ARMY DECLARES WE
NEED MORE SOLDIERS
Declares United States Not Prepared
to Resist Invasion of Our Shores
by an Enemy

WASHINGTON, Nov. 18.-America
needs more soldiers. This was the
positive assertion in the annual re-
port of General Wotherspoon, chief of
staff of the United States army, made
public today. General Wotherspoon
maintains that not only is the United
States unprepared to resist invasion
by a first class power but that also
we are not in a position to defend the
Panama canal, the Philippines, Ha-
waii or Alaska. He contends that the
probable value of our home defense IL
questionable.
In his report General Wotherspoon
urged that the nations standing army
be increased from 100000 to 100000.
That in addition there be mobile
army of 100000 first line troops and
100000 second line troops. He de-
clared that the nation with it's mil
itary force cannot assemble rapidly
enough sufficient troops to cope with
an enemy embarking on our shores.

VIENNA, Ov. 17.-(Via mail to

Christmas means anything to you,
here's your opportunity. For three
weeks the hospitals here have been
without cotton to dress the wounds
dying soldiers. Doctors and nurses
have been forced to use small bags of
thread as substitute.
Americans ought to in the name of
humanity send cotton to Austria. Vast
quantities of absOrbant cotton can he
sent to Vienna if American citizens
will each buy a small box and mail it
at parcel post rates.
If packages are addressed to Red
Cross, Vienna and marked "Watte Fur

BY GOVERNOR HAINES LAST
EVENING
Was For Four Years Unexpired Term
Of Late Justice Stewart-WiII
Be Contested

BOISE, Nov. 1S.-Alfred Bulge, judge
of the fifth judicial district, was last
evening appointed by Governor Haines
to fill the unexpired term of Justice
Stewart, deceased. He will not take
office for some days yet, however, for
Mr.. Clifford as secretary of state has
refused to issue his commission. This
action was taken in order to get the
matter into the courts and to determ-
inc in that manner the length of the
term which may be filled by appoint
ment.
Judge Bulge has been in the city
for some days in conference with the
governor and other members of the
administration He was reluctant to
accept the position offered him on ac-
count of the possibility that it might
give him that office for 'anly the two
years until the next general election.
He has been assured, however, by
those whose legal opinion carries much

for the full four years remaining of
the term to which Judge Stewart was
elected. In order to make the matter
certain his commission specifically
stated that he was appointed to serve
the remainder of Judge Stewart's term
or until January, 1919. Secretary
Clifford then returned the notice of ap-
pointment with letter stating his
refusal to issue the commission on the
ground that he had no authority to
make the term longer than until the
next general election To clear up the
matter the supreme court will prob
ably be asked for writ of mandate
to compel the issuance of the com
An early decision is expect
ed.
Another peculiar situation is raised
in the matter of appointing a successor
TO Judge Bulge on the district bench.
The present term Of the judge on the
district bench expires January /, but
he trouble lies in that he has been |
elected TO succeed himself.
1t is thought by some that the ap-
,ointee of Governor Haines to fill that
yacancy wifi serve the remainder of
he present term and the four years OF
he term to which Judge Bulge has
ust been elected. Other opinion,
more in the majority, holds that Gov
rnor Haines can only appoint to fill
he unexpired term and that Mr.. Al

MORE MONEY IN EGG FARMING

Twenty years experience in the
nouliry business has taught me
there is more money in keeping
poultry for eggs than for meat"
writes Mrs. Ida Nickerson in the
October Valley Farmer. She backs
up her statement with these rea-
sons: There is less work, less ex-
pense and less risk than in raising
broilers or roasters. The high
price Of grain makes the growing
OF chickens expensive. Then chicks
have many enemies, such as stray
cats, hawks, rats, foxes, and other
animals-besides diseases which
often destroy an entire flock. Work.
ing for eggs is comparatively sure.
II the hens are well cared for and
properly fed they will produce eggs.
There is always a local market for
eggs at a cash price. But seldom il
there a good market for chickens In
any small town and il shipped to dis
tant markets the shipper is usually
at the mercy Of the commission mer-
chant.

WILL WAR PRICES BE MAINTAIN
EN-

To forecast lower level OF prices
in the face OF present conditions in
Europe would be unwarranted. Yet
il is the opinion OF C. w. Metsker,
the market reviewer Of the Valley
Farmer that an early settlement OF
the war would mean a temporary
collapse in grain prices, a decline in
live stock, sugar and coffee. On
the other hand he declares that the
continuation OF war means not only
a big demand on this years crops
but also on those that will be pro-
duced next year. There is not
much doubt that we must feed
Europe for at least a year, whether
there is peace or war. but a material
eadjustment will occur in prices
as soon as peace talk assumes for
midable proportions. In the mean
time the markets will be governed
entirely by daily conditions.
