KILLING WEEDS ON THE
 DITCH BANKS

"@W VIVID LI1 Oh SiAOot IAS II ASOS ed districts of Arizona is be- ing observed with fear. The main canals and smaller irri- gation ditches together with the fertile soil have done much to spread these weeds.
 Something should be done to check, this dangerous in crease. It is estimated that one-half a million dollars is expended annually to keep the irrigation ditches clean in Ar izona. Besides this amount, it is probable that weeds dis seminated by irrigation wa, terS cause an annual loss ot fully a million dollars year. This condition of affairs sure should be more fully realized by farmers so that active steps may be taken to pre- vent further loss, warns Dr. R. H. Williams, animal hus- bandman of the U. of A. ag- ricultural experiment station.
 Fortunately there is a Slm- pie and profitable means for controlling the spread of the weeds. Sheep will solve the problem and return a hand some profit for the privilege.
 All ditches and canals in the state should be fenced, and sheep maintained on them. If this is done, you may be certain that practical ly all kinds of weeds will be destroyed and converted into profitable wool and mutton. The discovery that sheep will do this work was made by the Arizona agricultural ex- pertinent station and bids fair to save the farmers many thousands of dollars annual sly. They are a net asset as the work performed by them in keeping the ditches free from weeds and thus saving considerable expense, will more than cover the cost of keeping them. At least $1.5O worth of wool should be ob- tained from each sheep and an average of $5 for each lamb raised. Thus, it would seem, that a farmer could sure count on about $6.5O of net profit for each sheep main tained on the farm.
 Care, however, should be exercised not to have too many sheep as their special

Mai.-gen. Wood spoke very. much to the point
at the Plattsburg camp when he characterized
as perfectly asinine the assertion that the
United States can raise 100000 men between
sunrise and sunset. OF course only the extreme
" simple minded ever believe that an army
could be raised overnight Certain pacifsts
contend this is possible, but they make the
claim for the purpose of lulling the public to
sleep and to frlstrate the efforts of those who
insist upon national readiness. - Brooklyn

WAR CRISES MUST BE EXPECTED:

So long as the unfortunate conflict lasts
there unquestionably will be ever recurrent
shocks. These are the natural concomitants Of
war and must be expected. But there is Meth
q desire nor object on the part of the countries
hi present at war to force America into the
strnggle; and there certainly is in a large sense
nothing to gain and much to lose if we were to
Voluntarily participate. Hence with the com
plete absence Of incentive it seems reasonable
70 conclude that the immediate future Of the
market situation may be Judged on the basis
that We are.Rot to become actual participants.

side of aggressiveness nor on the side of pas
sivity. A large portion of the Ameriean.press
was urging that Ambassador Won Bernstorff
should be handed his passports and diplomatic
relations sunnmarily severed; another large
portion urged that it was none of America s
business anyway if Americans insisted on
travelling in the dangerous war zone and there
by got themselves killed But the president
and his secretary knew that they were insist
ing on rights founded on International law, on
humanity, on the highest justice; and that the
and sexigeneies of. war had not
abrogated these rights. And they stood stead
lily to their task through many grave hours.
And Germany now has acknowledged that
the American attitude is correct; the American
demands just. She has met the demands.
The fine thing that was said Of the president
after his diplomatic victory in the Lusitania
case IS even finer now: S..s.ss5.
Without mobilizing regiment or assemb-
ling feet, By sheer, logged, answering per-
sistence in advocating the right, he has com
PEELED the surrender of the proudest, the best
armed of nations, and he has done it in com
pletest elf-abnegation, but in fullest, most
patriotic devotion to American rights. g
And after paying tribute to the president
and his able right hand man, Robert Lansing,
it is fitting to pay tribute to Germany's sacri-
fee of an essential part of her war against the
Allies, and to her willingness to meet the
American point of view Let no invidious
tongue attempt to cheaper the triumph OF
moral idealsm this incident has blazoned forth
to the world. 81 Il .s@s !. .... ,.
There is reason TO believe that if Germany
could have had many months ago the full nm
defstanding ef American purpose, American
hopes, American interpretation Of neutrality,
that she possesses today, there would have
been no sinking of the Lusitania or the Arabic.
Bnt with most of her channels Of communiea-
tion. cut off, with mischief makers abroad, and
with synpathizers in this country whose very
love for the Fatherland necessarily led to di-
vided allegiance, Germany may have been very
much in the dark as to the fervor and determi-
nation of the people of the United States
Berlin got from these devoted sympathizers an
altogether misleading body of information.
Now that truer perspective is achieved, now
that the principles Of world-faW and world
humanity have been recognized as binding on
nations even in the welter of war, the sorely-
strained relations of the last few months may
relax; suspicious be east aside, and time Of
deeper understanding reign harmoniously.
That still rests with Germany America is
now, as America has been through all these
months, ready to maintain the friendship of

THE PRESIDENTS TRIUMPH OF PEACE.

President Wilson has won for neutral rights
and neutral lives and for American ideals Of
humanity a splendid victory in the diplomatic
Negotiations with Germany upon the grave
Question of submarine warfare. And it is a
victory for peace itself. s.@@
The Associated Press despatch yesterday
afternoon, bringing news that Ambassador Won
Bernstorf had conveyed to Secretary Lansing
Germany,s disavoWal Of the sinking of the.
Arabic and her willingness to pay indemnify
for the two American lives lost when the White
Star liner was torpedoed, signifies more than q
ifihmph on the points that the administration
has been steadily pressing home IT is a
Triumph of moral force whose like has sci
dom been paraIleled in American history It
recalls thessteadfast faith of Washington and.
Lincoln in holding to the right, through storm
and stress, until the impelling force of high
moral Principle conld no longer be denied
Germany has thus rounded out the statement
Of her attitude begun on September 4 when
Ambassador Won Bernstorff gave informal bnt
definite answer to the American note on the
nsitania incident Of July IL In oral and
1Iitfen assurances on that memorable day the
ambassador said that Germany would see to it
that liners will not be sunk BY our subma-
Iines without warning and without safety Of
the lives of noncombatants, provided that the
liners do not try to escape or offer resistance
This was the statement Of what Germany was

Arabic off Fastnet by a German submarine and
The loss, Of two American lives. AT once the
aIkabsorbing question became, What will.

but now the spirit Of the assurances given
America e
Ga the answers to these questions rested the.
friendly relations between this country and
Germany, possibly also on the answer rested

Gcrmany's preliminary discussion of the
Arabic incident was disappointing. For she
attempted to Justify the sinking of the White
Star liner on grounds to which this govern
'nent could not assent without stultifsing
