Two Dollar Wheat in 1915

Lewis T. Tune, St. Louis superin-
tendent Of the Bradstreet Company,
predicts golden opportunity for the
American farmer in the situation de-
veloped by the European war.
Should the war be prolonged over
several months, he says, typical war
prices are sure to prevail. Seeding
time for winter wheat for Europe
will soon be at hand, and owing to
scarcity Of labor and generally upset
conditions, the acreage will be light.
II believe" said Mr.. Tune, that
farmers, in the United States should
be impressed with the fact that next
season they will have q larger and
higher market for their cereal pro-
ducts than at any time since the
Civil War. | should not be surprised
to see wheat selling at e and corn
at 81 bushel this time next year"

What Has Become of the French?

: What 100, coo, 600 Americans would
chiefly like to know about the
European war is what has become OF
the French Army? The advancing
Germans have been heroically re-
sisted by Belgians and English, but
where are the French?
The peace strength Of the French
Army is near 800, OO0-almost exactly
the same as that of Germany. There
are large bodies of French troops op-
Grating in Alsace-Lorraine, but it is
extremely doubtful whether this
would account for more than 200, 900.
And for the items of invalids, garri-
son forces, ETC., the German army is
subject to the same discount as the
French.
The world has long known that for
courage and for discipline, German
troops are nowhere surpassed. But
these familiar truths do not help
solve the mystery. for the Germans
have been attacking fortified places
and the classic rule is that the at.
lacking army must have three times
the number behind the Notifications
in order to be equal in advantage.
For an illustration, look at the seige
of Leige.
The French have had more time to
prepare by many days than the
Belgians. In 1918 the total peace
strength of the Belgian Army was
47,6O3. When Belgian was able to
do so much with less than $1,000
men, why is France doing SO little
with sixteen times as many, fighting
a defensive campaign against inva-
sion?
Has the subsistence organization
broken down? Is it another collapse
like that Of the French Panama Canal
Company.
In Belgians and British the Ger.
mans have found, foemen worthy of
their steel Why cannot the French
Army, as large as the German ARMY
hold its own Notifications? What
lies behind the, ineffectiveness Of
French resistence?- St Louis Repub-

SHOW YOUR HAND, BRO. FUNK.

SHOW YOUR HAND, BRO. FUNK.
The Republican-Press has in its
past two or three issues repeatedly
charged that liquor was used in and
about the court house in violation of
the local option laws during the pri-
mary election on August 4th.
We would remind Mr.. Funk that as
a citizen and newspaper man, it is
his duty to the community at large if
he has any evidence or knows of any
violation of any law, whether in the
court house or out Of it, to lay before
the proper authorities, his evidence,
and we can assure him that the mat
ter will be speedily acted upon. In
nuendoes and insinuations through
the columns Of his paper are small,
SAVIOR of yellow journalism, and I'm.
less backed up with proof are un-
worthy Of good citizen.
If Mr.. Funk knows anything, let
him make it public. If he has been
making his charges for political affect
they are unworthy Of consideration.

After mother had gone the house he sat talking

York was because he was broke" entertain them
Emily said that was all past now, and that she very
happy his Then he told her about his

TN Herbert Spencer's Essay on
Education" the author says,
THE first requisite is to be
good animal"
Ironical people have called at
tention to the fact that Herbert
Spencer wasn't. But this does
not weigh in the scale against the
truth of his dictum
Any system of education that
does not tend to make the child
a good animal is faulty in the ex-
treme.
The world is coming to the be
lief that the object of education
is to make the individual ac-
quainted with this planet upon
which he lives, that feeds and
sustains him, in order that he
may better adapt himself to life
here and now.
The more accurate knowledge
he has about this world, its his
tory, the men and women who
now live and those who have
lived, the better educated the in
dividual.
The other day saw a hundred
young men shoveling and cart
ing snow off of a college campus.
And I congratulated a professor
of political economy on the num-
Der of working students at the
college.
He looked at me in pity and re-
piled, why, those fellows are not
students, here We have entered
into a pact to the effect that at
this university no useful thing
shall be done"

work before he is twelve, he prob
