Getting Food to the
Soldiers in Advanced
Trenches Is Difficult

London, Eng. April 2s-Food for the
soldiers in the advanced trenches must
be carried long distances under cover
Of darkness. The men bearing their
precious burden often have unlucky adj
ventures and their provisions arrive in
anything but an appetiZiuE state
Sometimes the fightisE is so desperate
that the food cannot be taken TO the
trenches even under cover OF darkness.

learned TO look for.

was making the announcement to this man.
ner in order to effect the negotiations now
pending with America over the Lusitania.
But the official declaration is simly the
confirmation of a report that has been cur
rent in Berlin ever since the U--29 did not
report at it's base months ago, and it could
hardly be said that the Germans both pat
ched up the statement and started the false
rumor before the American protest was
ever made.
The conflict of accounts of the destruct-
ion of the u 20 is very likely to play part
in reply that Germany will make to Presi-
dent Wilson's second note of protest, and
with any negotiations that may be contin-
ued after the Berlin foreign office has been
transmitted its reply. The Germans will
lay great stress upon their claim that mer-
chant ship can sink submarine, and if the
orders issued to British captains offering
prizes for destroying the under sea boats
stands, but it will be contended that the
German commander should have the right
to defend himself by sinking his antagonist
to save his own vessel, and the lives of his
own crew The answer will be that the sub
marines have no business Interfering with
vessels, and wouldn't be in danger of being
rarmed if they stayed away. Then we
would have the question of right to declare
a submarine blockade, and then in turn the
question of Great Britian's blockade of Ger
man ports, and then go back and question
the right of Germany to treat Belgium as
she did, for which treatment England start
ed her blockade in retaliation so on
and so on. Finally you get back to the prim-
ary question, Why this war? And no one
can satisfactorily answer that. And there
you are.

DARIUS

The neigh OF a horse made Darius
King OF Persia the six contending
powers for the throne agreeing among
themselves that the one whose horse
should neigh first should possess the
kingdom This ancient method OF
settling disputes among politicians
could be revived with profit today.
II our partisan factions and petty pol
iticians could only settle their dis
putes by the neigh of a horse. the
bark OF a dog or the bray OF donkey.
1t would be a great blessing and would
give our citizens a better opportunity
to pursue the vocations OF industry
free from political strife.
Let those who pick political plums
by raising rows and who fash swords
dripping in the blood OF industry un-
derstand that they cannot turn the
public forum into a political arena and
by clash OF personal aspirations
still the hammer and stop the pillow
and that their quarrels must be settled
IN the back alleys Of civilization.

FREE PORTS

BY Peter Radford.

This nation is now entering upon
an era OF marine development. The
wreckage of European commerce has
drifted to our shores and the world

mands for the products of farm and
factory In transportation facilities
on land we lead the world but our port
facilities are inadequate, and our flag

This article will be confined to a
discussion OF our ports for the pro.
ducts OF the farm must pass over our
wharfs before reaching the water. We
have in this nation 81 ports, OF which
Al are on the Atlantic and 10 are on
the Pacific Coast. The Sixty.second
Congress appropriated over s51 1.000..
900 for improving our Rivers and
Harbors and private enterprise levies

annually In wharfage and charges for
which no tangible service is rendered.
The latter item should be lifted OF
the backs OF the farmer OF this ma.
tion and this can be done by Congress
directing it's appropriations to ports
that are free where vessels can tie up

A free port is progress. II takes

THE VITAL PROBLEM OF
AGRICULTURE
BY Peter Radford.

There is no escaping the market
problem and the highest development
OF agriculture will not be attained
until Il is solved. for market
is as necessary for the producer
as land on which to grow his crop.
Governmental and educational insti-
tutions have spent slS0.000. 900 In the
United States during the past ten
years for improving soil production
and improving seeds and plants. but
very little attention and less money
has been given TO the marketing side
OF agriculture.
The problem is q monumental one
and one which will never be solved
until It gets within the grasp OF a
gigantic organization where master
oinds can concentrate the combined
upon IL. II is a problem which the
farmers, merchants. bankers. editors
and statesmen must unite In solving.

there is in farming from the most

The Fate OF The U---29

The dispute as to how the U29 was sunk
is destined never to be settled satisfactorily
to the neutral searcher after the truth. An
official announcement is made by the British
Admiralty that the famous under water
craft met her fate at the hands of zone of
his Majesty's ships" This indefinite state
ment is intended to convey the information
that some sort of British warship destroyed
the submarine, as it would require long
strech of the imagination to call merchant
vessel flying the British flag, or owned by
British capitol and engaged in British shpp-
ing one of "his Majesty's ships"
AS an Offset to this positive announcement
we have an equally emphatic statement from
the German government that the U-2a
was rammed by British tank steamer, fly
ing the Swedish flag.
There you are. Take your choice. An
Official announcement from the govern
ment of a great nation is supposed to estab-
lish some statement as an incontrovertible
fact. But in this case some one is mistaken,
or he is prevaricating.
The British statement is handicapped by
suspicition Of being rather late The U--29
was destroyed many weeks ago. But there
have doubtless been many happenings of
Importance kept secret by the British Ad-
miralty office, and the fact that the ''news"
is stale does not necessarily mean that it is
untrue. The German announcement, too, is
late though one would ordinarily expect
that the victors would give out the news,
rather than the vanquished, if either were
to withhold the facts or delay announcing
them. 1t might be claimed that Germany

value OF the hog manure as dropped

In this case the net price for alfalfa

course, the hogs paid more than that

situation where the reverse OF this

In the eastern states where alfalfa hay

In such cases II might pay better to

WHAT TO RAIsk,

Farmers should raise the things
TO which their farms. their mar
kets and themselves are adapt
ell. They would better study
how to raise the most and best
OF these things than to scatter
their energies over great va
riety Of products merely to keep
from buying them. The men
who follow the right policy usu-
ally have cash enough TO get
what they need from other farm
ers who can produce It cheapest.
There was time when farmers
were compelled to grow or make
about everything they needed,
but that day has long gone by.
II is good business to raise
things-but the right things.
The scatteration plan involves
neglect of some Of these things
without a corresponding gain in
raising others.-National Stock

The automobile industry in the United
States is the third largest, being only sur
