What Will You Do About Its

The Southern Agriculturist !
does not believe in scare-heads,
but it would like to print at the 4
top of every page in box-car let
tiers: "The greatest chance you
have ever had to make money is '
here right now. What are you
going to do about it," Let us
take a brief survey of the facts
in the case and see if we are not
justified in saying this.
Who is going to have the world
to feed for the next decade or
more? The plows of Europe
must lie idle until a new gener-
alton grows up to take the places
of the millions of fathers and
brothers who lie Wondering in
the bloodsoaked trenches. Even
Germany, that most provident
and careful Of nations, has al
ready begun to dole out foodstuffs
like bank-notes, with the war on
ly a few months old. Men who
fight and their families at home
must be clothed and fed; they
must have grain and cloth, meat
and leather; and their stores are
already exhausted, or nearly so.
Where is it to come from? 1t
does not take a prophet to fore
tell the inevitable. There is only
one nation left in all the world
large enough and rich enough to
supply this demand. And yet in
face of this unprecedented. and
logical opportunity, we find men
who for narrow personal or polltl-
cal reasons dare to sit up and
howl calamity. The practical
man needs only to use his senses
to see the utter folly of allowing
the depression, which of necessity
followed the great shock of last
August, to persist in such de-
gree as to paralyze our own
powers and prevent us as nation
from taking advantage of the un
paralleled chance that is now be-
fore us. Turn the question how
you will, the TRUTHS simply this
Is it not a matter of choice; it is
matter of necessity. Either
America must feed the world OF
the world must starve.
Another depressing influence
that has joined forces with the
war for the Encouragement OF
those who do not think far ahead
is the prevalence of the foot and
mouth disease. But, for the
Southern farmer, this too, has its
decidedly bright side. Already
the government has the trouble
so we'll under control that there
is little likelihood of its invading
more Southern territory, w
must be careful, of course. Blu
being careful is far different fror
getting scared. While the bee
and dairy industries of the Mort
and East must suffer, the rapid
growing South, the land of chea
pastures and favorable climat
should see her chance to builC
Nowhere can meat and milk b
made more proftably: nowher
can hogs and sheep be grown un
der more favorable conditions
and nowhere can hay and graf
be grown with a greater certaint
of good crops for a good market
The man who will get discoul
aged now is the man who doe
not deserve to make a success
The very crux of the times wi
bring out the qualities that max
for success or failure. 1t j

as elemental situations have beef

There is no chance for failure fol

ripe for the doing of big things

MONEY MARKET IN
VIENNA IS EASY
TEUTONS CLAIM NOT TO HAVE
SUFFERED HEAVILY
FINANCIALLY

VIENNA, March 16.-In the official
reports issued by the city of Vienna
as to conditions here during wartime
II is pointed out today that Germany
and Austra-Hungary through the war
have suffered economically no more
than the allies and the neutral pow
ers. AS proof thereof the fact is
given that savings bank deposits in
1914 decreased only 27,000,000 crowns
and that the money market continues
extraordinarily easy The supply of
foodstuffs during January in general
was sufficient, although various arti-
Giles OF necessity showed an increase
in price. Only the -four situation
has not improved owing to the exist
ing high prices for wheat and -four
in Vienna and other communities.
The city of Vienna therefore has Sc
cured large quantity of corn for
the needs of the Viennese population
and in order to have this unpopular
article of food meet more easily with
favorable reception by the popula-
tion recipes for the use OF corn -four
are printed on the reverse OF the
street car tickets and in such other
manner as seem appropriate.
There was no shortage of meat
during January. The supply of meat
was even greater than usual, consid-
ering the demands of the can
ming factories working for the mill
tary The most important articles Of
food for January show relatively un-
important price increases as com
pared with January of last year.

Nevada aAd Oklahoma have ten IA
inch rifles each in two 3-gun and two
2-gun turrets. In all these ships, in
Guiding the Pennsylvania. the turrets
are all on the center line to concen.
trate their fire on either broadside.
The cruising radius of the Pennsyl-
vania will be considerably increased
by the fact that she will be equipped
for oil fuel exclusively and will have
capacity of 1922 tons of fuel oil.
The Queen Elizabeth has capacity
Of 4,Oo0 tons of oil because OF her
high speed requirements. From her
enormous main battery the Pennsyl-
vania will be able to hurl, with the
pressure of single firing lever ~
tons of steel on either broadside. In
addition she will carry a secondary
battery of % 5-inch rifles for defense
against torpedo boats She will be
fitted also with four submerged u.
inch torpedo tubes and her ships
company will be composed of 65 off
GERS, S63 blue jackets and "a marines.
The ship measures COS feet over all
and 81 feet beam, and her mean
draft is 2S feet 10 inches, almost the
limit In size for the Panama canal
and present navy dry docks There
are only a few docks in the world
which can receive her and she could
not enter many busy harbors except
under most favorable conditions of
tide and wind.
When completed the Pennsylvania
will have cost the government more
than s13.OOO,OOO. She will be ready
for commission. under contract, by
February 2S. 1916. Her keel was laid
October 27. 1913.
The enormous size OF the new ship
and the startling rapidity with which
battleship construction has developed,
even before the great war. is indicat.
ed by comparison of the Pennsylvania
with the British battleship Dread
naught, first of the all-big-gun ships
in any navy. The Dreadnaught was
estimated for in 1907, She was de-
signed TO displace 1900 tons, but
actually is considerably larger. In
the main battery are ten 12-inch guns
with broadside fire of six guns and
her trial speed was 212 knots
The Pennsylvania will be euipped
with turbine engines as is the Okla
homa, the Queen Elizabeth and all
of the newest English. German and
Japanese battle craft. The Nevada

will have turbine engines and the
other reciprocating In line with the
navy departments policy of not en-
tirely abandoning the reciprocating
type until thoroughly satisfactory

struotions Of their own sovereign. In
the absence of such instructions their
Jurisdiction and rules Of decision are to
be ascertained by reference to the known
powers Of such tribunals and the prin-
ciples by which they are governed under
the public law and the practice Of ma
tions. II will appear therefore that the
principles applied by the prize courts Of
the two courts are identical"
Tho supplemental note then proceeds
with a long legal argument 20 demon
strate the practicability OF prize court
being governed by international law and
at the same time by municipal law in
the form Of orders-in-oouncn. II finally
comes 10 the case OF the steamer zamora,
In the present war in which the British
court declared:
The nations Of the world need not
be apprehenaive that orders-in-counofl
will emanate from the government Of
this country in such violation Of the
acknowledge laws Of nations that II IL
conceivable that our prize tribunals, hold
ing the law OF nations in reverence would
feel called upon to disregard and refuse
obedience TO the provisions Of such or
doris"
Sir Edward then points out that tho
legality OF the orders-in-counciI, or of the
measures taken under them, have not
yet been brought to a decision in a prize
court but he reminds the United States
that 1T Is open TO any United States
citizen whose claim is before the prize
court, TO contend that any order-ln-coun-
ell which may affect his claim is incon-
sistent with the principles OF international
law and IL therefore not binding upon
the court II the prize court declines TO
accept his contentious, and II after such
decision has been upheld on appeal by
the judicial committee Of his mnjesty's
privy council. the government of the
United States considers that there is
serious ground for holding that the de-
cision IL Incorrect and fnfrlnRes the
rights OF their citizens, Il is open to
them to claim that II should be subjected
to review by an international tribunal"
The celebrated Matamoro case OF the
civil war then Is cited to show that
the supreme court Of the United States
held II had the right to reverse the
decisions OF prize courts, and that there
was no doubt OF the justification OF an
international tribunal to review the de-
cisions OF the prize courts of the United
states where the parties alledging them
selves aGgrieved had prosecuted their
appeals TO the court of last resort"
II the United States should be dis
satisfied with decisions OF British prize
courts AZ sustained by the privy council.
the British government Is prepared to
concert with the United States in order
to decide upon the best way of apply
Ing the principles to the situation which
would then have arisen"
