GIVES VIEWS o.
true NEUTRALITY
President Wilson Touches on
Present Problems.
OPPORTUNITY IS ADVANCING

As the Only Great Nation Not En-
gagged in the Great War or Suffer
ing Under Its Immediate Influence
a. Great Distinction Awaits the
United States When the Hour Of
Readjustment Comes.
New York, April 21.-President
Wilson gave definite and clear
statement of the neutrality which is
guiding this administration during
the war in Europe.
The influence of the newspaper in
moulding public opinion, Mr.. Wilson
said, prompted him to make clear his
ideas of true neutrality and in doing
so to impress upon his hearers the
Importance of adhering strictly to
truthfulness and honesty in the dis
semination of the news
AS the only great nation not en-
the immediate influence of the war
zone Mr.. Wilson declared a great dis
tincti0n awaits the United !. States
when the hour of readjustment comes,
provided this nation proves to the
world it's self-control and self-mas-
terry. The past has been difficult, he
pointed out, but the future will be
more difficult. r
America, the president said, never
will attempt to sit in judgment upon
another nation. No nation is fit to do
that, he added But America, free
from hampering ambitions at world
power, free of lust for territory,
calm, cool and without self-interest,
must be appealed to- to assist in the
reconstructing processes of peace
The neutrality of the United
States, Mr.. Wilson said, has higher
basis than a petty desire to keep out
of trouble 5
"There is something so much great
er to do than fight he said, LET us
think of America before we think OF
Europe, that America may be fit to
be Europe's friend when the duty of
tested friendship comes.
Ready to Aid Both Sides.
'The test of friendship is not SYM
pathy with one side or the other, but
getting ready to help both sides when
the struggle is over. a=
''The basis of neutrality is not in
difference; it is not self-interest," he
said. "The basis of neutrality is
sympathy for mankind. It is fair
ness, it is good will at bottom. It is
impartiality of spirit and of judg-
ment. I wish that all of our fellow
citizens could realize that,
There is in some quarters dispo-
sition to create distempers in this
body polite. Men are even uttering
ISLANDERS against the United States,
as if to excite her. Men are saying
that if we should go to war upon
either side there will be a divided
America-an abominable libel of ig-
nOrance
1--WE are the mediating nation of
the world. I do not mean that we
undertake not to mind out own bust
ness and to mediate where other peo-
pie are quarreling.. I mean the word
in a broader sense. The opinion of
America, the action of America, is
ready to turn and free to turn in any
direction.
"My interest in the neutrality of
the United States is not the petty de-
sire to keep out of trouble. l have
never looked for it, but I have always
found it: I do not want to walk
around trouble. If any man wants a
scrap, that is an interesting scrap,
and worth while, I am his man.

COURT CALLS FOR
PRINTING CONTRACTS.

Syracuse, April 21.-Justice

counsel for Colonel Roosevelt,
signed an order requiring Eu-
gene M. Travis, state comptrol-
Ter, to produce forthwith con-
tracts for state printing from

lief" certain printing concerns
have paid the Albany Journal,
Mr.. Barnes newspaper, per-
:, centage of money received for
executing printing contracts
and on one occasion double
payment was made for print
ing job, in which the plaintiff
was more or less interested.

Prairie Longue School Closed

Prof. Frank Isbell brought his school at prairie Longue to a close last Saturday. This was an eight month term and a most successful and satisfactory ses. sion with forty three scholars enrolled, all of whom were deeply interested throughout the term. Recently box supper was held and a neat sum raised which was applied to the improvement of the school building. The interior was painted and a flag ordered which will gracefully float above the school house to proclaim the spirit of patriotism that prevails in the school, together with min or details of the noble work of public spiritedness and progress. Prof. Isbell will teach his next term in Mississippi county.

2,O0 Apply for License.

More than 2.300 persons have paid money into the state treas ury for license to hunt, fish or for hunting dogs since the new general game and fish law be. came operative. A total of $2, 655 has been paid into the treas ury up to date.
 Among the persons who have obtained licers were Is market fishermen, who pay. an annua license fee of $25. The other money was for license to use arti. ficial bait, for hunting and for hunting dogs. The anglers seem to be in the majority, for fully 2,000 persons have paid license fees to use artificial bait. There were about 300 applying for licen. SC to hunt or to use hunting dogs.
 There will be a meeting of the State Fish and Game Commiss- ion within the next few days. and it is probable permanent secretary will be elected.

CARLISLE FORGING AHEAD.
City With it's Spring Improvements Presents
 Noticeable Appearance.

The streets of Carlisle have been worked, graded and treated to an application of oil, the pub- llc gardens or parks have been put ln shape and planted, houses have been erected, improved and painted, young couples have married, the rains have come, our vegetables and crops are growing fine and the spirit of progress and enterprise prevails in our midst.
 And, yet, there is another car of oil to come. the Rock Island garden man is be here this week with more plants and bulbs for our parks, more houses are to be erected and more improvements made, there will be more marri- ages, and among other things the price of milk IS to be raised, all of which goes to prove our contention that Carlisle is the best town in the best community in this section of the country. Doubtless God could have made better world than this had He tried, and doubtless too, He might in this the best of all worlds have placed a cherrier. more provident section than Car lisle and vicinity, but wisely He made neither attempt.
 The panics may come and go drouths and floods may invade the land, people may howl and knock, but the progress of this section goes steadily on. Moth ing can hinder this from becom- ing one of the leading communi- ties of the South. Get your shoulder to the wheel and push.

FOR SUCCESSFUL DAlRYING
Quality Sets Price on Milk, Cream
 and Butter.

Where whole milk Is delivered to the creamery in a sweet condition and separated there, the subject of grading is unheard of, because the resulting cream is all of a good uniform qual. fty.
 The policy of paying a patron just as much for a pound of butter fat in bad cream as in good cream is surely unjust to the patron who thinks well enough Of his product and himself to take care of his cream and keep 1t clean. A number of ereameries in several states have attempted to p,l, into effect grading system and pays patrons according to quality. The plan has been quite successful in some cases However, It's success would be assured were 1t adopted more uni versally
 Plan For Grading Creams.
 The plan in general is to grade cream as 1t arrives at the creamery into three grades according to quality. and pay different price for each
 
 cream, and commanding from three to five cents more per pound of but ter fat than grade two, which is but moderately sour but clean, of good odor and flavor, and free from foreign matter. Such creameries reject grade three cream or buy It at a great reduc- tion and churn out the fat to be sold at renovating plants where 1t Is used in the manufacture of renovated but ter. It often brings about half as much as grade one.
 Dirty MlIk Under Ban.
 The above plan should be enoour. aged, as under the old system of ac- ceptfng all cream at the same price, a premium is being placed on dirty and careless dairy practice. Unless we do something of this sort the oual- ity Of the butter made is bound to be. come gradually poorer Where oual- ity is lacking prices are sure to go down. Then some good old prophet will announce that there is no money in the dairy business, but he will like. ly fail to qualify the statement by making 1t, There Is no money in the dirty and careless dairy business" H.

As to Neighbors.
Are you a good neighbor?

Are you good neighbor?
 How do you answer this ques- tion? Do you consider yours the best neighborhood in the world, or do you think it the worst in the world?
 You will find it a might good neighborhood if you are sociable, friendly and willing to lend a helping hand, or you will find it a poor one if you are not helpful and thoughtful of others.
 Before you say anything about your bad neighbor, think seri- ously why he is bad neighbor If you make yourself real neighbor to others you will have neighbors in them. If you make yourself an enemy to your neigh bors you may expect to have enemys, If you make yourself a friend and neighbor to them, they will be friends and neigh bors to you. Why not make yourself worthy neighbor, such as your friends can appreciated

Independents 1th Anniversary

With this issue the Independ- ent enters the eleventh year of its career. In this short time it has seen many changes and great development in it's terri tory. Carlisle has grown from a mere village to a we'll appointed and substantial little city, while the surrounding territory has budded into a variatable garden spot of the earth" In fact there is not better town and com munity to be found in this or any other country. We have a popu- lation of honest, industrious and neighborly people who work to- gether for the general interest and upbuilding of the communi- ty. They are an intellectual, church going people and are deeply interested in educational matters.
 The IndeE endent has been a factor in this development and the men who have owned and ed ited the paper deserve much credit for the interest they took in furthering this great move ment. It has now come time when the paper can prove even a greater benefit to it's territory if properly used in maintaining the standard now established and pushing the spirit of develop ment and progress that is so much in evidence.
 We predict that the coming eleven years will show even greater and more miraculous changes for the better than the past eleven years. The fact that we have many undeveloped re- sources is very appearant, and with general farming, rice grow. ing and the dairy business in a well developed stage there is an ample assurance that it is pos sible to bring about these great developments. The future out look is very encou raging.
 The Independent will always be found in the front ranks when it comes to boosting and pulling for these conditions. It will stand at the rack, fodder or no fodder, to do it's part toward reaching these future developments.
 We wish to thank our people for past patronage and favors and to assure them that our col unns will at all times be used in manner calculated to be for the best interest of all concerned.

GOOD TREE STOCK URGED
w. H. Wicks Advises Nurseryman to
 Buy Trees Near Home.

A As the nurseryman is in the busi- as his success usually depends upon the development of good orchards. he should buy his nursery stock from the nearest nursery that carries the qual ity of goods he desires. In securing nursery stock from nursery nearby the orchardist will be more apt to get first quality stock than he would in buying from a great distance. It Is also well to plant young trees that are grown under climatic conditions simi- lar to that into which they are to be transplanted The latter, however, is not such vital point as some may presume, but it is always we'll to fol- low the rule where possible.
 Plant One Year Old Trees.
 Good nursery stock consists not in the short, stunted. crooked and unhealthy specimens which are sometimes pawned-off by nursery brokers on the uniformed tree planter. but consists rather of the straight, clean, healthy, well-ma- tured stock from three to five feet in height with a well formed root sys- tenn. A root system to be we'll formed should possess main root branches uniformly distributed from the center These root branches being crossed or tangled indicate poor growing condi- tions in the nursery and are not de- sirable
 Inspect For Root Disease.
 Watch out for crown gall. hairy root and woody aphis on the root system. It Is advisable to inspect the stock in the nursery before buying, making sure that you will receive the same stock and have the nurseryman pack 1t properly in boxes for shipment. Make every effort to see that your trees are true to name
 Two things that the orchadist should endeavor to make certain is that he gets the stock he wants and that it is of the best quality, and he should also endeavor to get young trees that are grown under climatic conditions similar to that into which they are to be planted
