 If a man we're to produce ten bales ot cotton on one acre, his achieve ment would be heralded from coast ;C coast tAroughout the Southland yet, as MT. Beattie, says hls return would be no. greater tnan from on : acre of Bermuda onions, properly Handled and marketed. The onioh grower need not stop with his mere D .OO per acre. Flantlng his crop Ill October, he can harvest and mark is by the following June, and have several months in which to- grow another crop ill the same years @
 Onions, ol course, cannot take t's place of cotton in this country, hus onions nd other vegetable and grain crops offer too great promise Cl fe- ward for the small farmer to over lCok X man with a few acres lr ,hi, country can so diversity that Il can be marketing some product :" almost every month of the year.

The Analo.Saxons.

The Angles and Saxons were the chief tribes among the three principal Teutonic conquerors of Britain; the Jutes were the third. They were Low Dutch tribes from the borderlands of Germany and Scandinavia, the lands at the mouth of the Elbe and the Weser. Their language was an ipde- pendent branch of the Teutonic fam. fly. The Saxons were the first inva. ders, but the Angles settled more land. As their settlement became old. CT and they themselves permanent res' idents of the island they called them. selves "English,' but their Celtic neighbors called them Saxons Their language was. of course. established in England at the time of the Norman conquest in 1066, when Norman-French words and phrases of Latin origin be. came fused with the language ot the people. The short and homely words of Anglo-Saxon origin remain. of course, as an integral and basic part of the English language, simpler. bet ter known, less pretentious, and pref. erable in conversation to the words of Latin derivation.

 Should Advise Travellers.
 "President Taft advised Americans to leave Mexico when instruction broke out there and President Wilson has repeated the advice. This advice, in my judgment, was eminently wise, and think the same course should be folIt wed in regard to warming Ameri cans to keep off vessels subject to attack.
 "I think, too, that American passen- ger ships should be prohibited from carrying ammunition. The lives or passengers ought not to be endanger- ed by cargoes of ammunition whether that danger comes from possible ex plosions within or from possible at tacks frorn without. Passengers and ammunition should not travel togeth- CT. The attempt to prevent American citizens from mourning these risks Is entirely consistent with the effor. which our government is making tO prevent attacks from submarines. ,'a;:,3 Cites Riot as Example.
 's4The. use of one remedy does not exclude the use of others. The most familiar illustration is to be found ill the action taken by municipal authorl- ties during riot. It is the duty of the mayor to suppress the mob and to prevent violence, but he does net hesitate to warn citizens to keep off the streets during the riots. He does not question their right to use the streets, but for their own protection and in the interest of order he warns them not to incur the risks when men are shooting at each other. ai sE

 Secretary Bryan said in giving out his statement that while it mentioned only two particulars in difference, he reserved any others for presentation in the future.

to take Sir John to place of safety. After a wait of an hour the lieuten- ant was again ordered by his superior officer to see Sir John and advise him of his danger.
 'The fiel dmarshal is now in his bath," said the orderly. Meanwhile the staff officers of the French and English forces had taken their places in the automobiles ready to start, but Sir John was not worried. At eight o'clock when it was momentarily ex- pected that the Germans would march into the town, the lieutenant was re- quested third time to try to make the situation clear to the British commander.
 Tt is absolutely necessary that l see the field marshal,' said the lieu tenant.
 And it is absolutely impossible for you to see the field marshall" said the orderly firmly. "The field mar shal is now taking his breakfast.
 Only at 9 o'clock did Sir John enter his automobile to leave the town, and at that hour the German troops had almost reached the market place of Compeigne.

eealnninu of "Reuteris."

Reuters the European news agency, had a curious beginning. Baron Reu. ter long nursed an idea for organizing the supply of foreign news in identical terms to all the newspapers. but edi. tors gave him no encouragement. At last he determined to risk things, and arranged with correspondents all over Europe. When their messages began to come in he took the1n round person ally to the newspaper offices and ot- fered them for nothing, on condition that his name should be printed against them. "Try them for von month." he urged. If they not satis. fly you. yell. to you 1t signify noth irg."

Stockholm, June 9.--According to the Svenska Dangbladet, leading Swedish newspaper, Field Marshal Sir john French, commander in chief of the British forces in France, will not permit the war to interfere with his personal comforts.
 A young lieutenant, says the news paper, was on duty with his regiment one night on the outskirts of Com- peigne. where the field marshal and his staff had their headquarters. At 6 o'clock one morning a heavy bonn bardment of the town was begun by the Germans. The lieutenant was hur- riedly sent to inform the field mar shal that the Germans were in front of the tcWn.
 At the door of the castle the lieu tenant was stopped by an orderly. The young officer told the orderly of his mission, adding that the situation looked critical and he must see Sir John French at once..
 "The field marshal is in bed and must not be disturbed,'' said the or- derly calmly.
 In the street automobiles were standing with alert chauffeurs ready

 ROSPERITY
ERYAN1S RESIGNATION
 INOPPORTUNE.

lit is unfortunate that MT. Bryan felt in pelled to resign from the presidential cabinet at the time he did, yet there can be only admira- ton for man who gives up an ann ij,ion rather than appear to be party to course to which he is con- sc.entiously opposed. The time is in- GppCrtune, because the action may be construed abroad as an indication tlat the American people, in large proportion, are so desirous of avert irg war that they would purchase l.cace at any price. This, of course, is not true. Dut the action of MT Bryan may create such an impress sicn, and increase the difficulties of tho administration in maintaining respect for Amercan rights without resort to war.
 Nations are not vastly differ mt .om individuals. Let some man ac- euire a reputation for Cowardice or aversion to a fight, and he is con- tlnually subjected to jibes and in- suits. Not until he wlallops some guy in the jaw, or sends bully the way most bullies go is he permitted to proceed unmolested.
 MT. Bryan cannot be ensured for withdrawing from the cabinet, He nay be censuIed for accepting a cabinet position, with the determna- ton to avert war at any cost.
 At the same time. there is much or justice in MT. lBrysn's contention that Germany cannot be expected to remit the United States to de tfrm.ne her submarine policy toward lations with which she is at war g,he only thing the United States has a right to demand, according to our viewpoint, is that Germany and all ether nations respect the rights of Americans abroad and on sea. There's no call for the United States to constitute itself the defender of ,he remainder of the world. At least rot just yet.
 And, in the light of the German reply to the United States note. there appears no occasion for the Tinted states to make upon Ger r,any in behalf Of other nations de raand. the refusal of which can mean only one thing. If we tell Germany she must not do a certain thlng, ana Germany proceeds to do that very tl ing, then there isn't but ohN course for us-fight And the time for the Unitea States to fight Ger many has not arrived.
 We believe President Wilson and the members of his cabinet fuliv competent to handle the situation but at the same time we believe that ar Bryan should not be harshly censured for his attitude.
 Before it is possible to accurately mass judgment upon MT. Bryan we must have knowledge of the contents tf the note to Germany, to determine if the erstwhile secretary of state had ground for his fear that lts Language would provoke war or Il he is just too closely welded to the policy of peace.

THEIR FIGHTING
STRENGTH

TN Great Britain after de-
Quoting war losses, there
are 100000 men be-
tween the ages of Is and As.
Of this number it is reported,
and with conservatism so it is
claimed, that 100000 are
now under arms or on waiting
orders.
At the outset of the war Ger
many had 100000 men of
military age. That force has
since been reduced by heavy
losses in battle against an al
lied foe. As the war proceeds
lit seems inevitable that the
German strength will gradu-
ally diminish whereas the alli-
ed strength represented by the
armies of England, France,
Russia and Italy should become
larger and more proficient.
Germany has made a splen-
did showing and the fortunes
of war have been with them
thus far. But there are reas.
ons for believing the kaiser
would like to quit while his
credit is good. A prolonged
war may reverse affairs.
The derision with which the
Ford peace proposal is treated
in allied circles indicates the
belief that the allies will win
if they continue the war to the
wearing out stage.

MERIT, NOT MATRIMONY

nSNDER the ruling of the
V1 supreme court in the case
of Mrs. Maud L. Rich
ards. Portland teacher, it is IL
legal for a school board to re-
move a teacher because she
: gets married. In other words
board of education cannot
discriminate against teacher
solely on account of her mar
ried state. However it will be
permissible to enforce the mer-
il rule against married teach
+. ers as we'll as others. So there
is nothing in a marriage certi-
ficate to insure permanency Of
employment for a teacher 1t
may be supposed that in cases
where marriage in no way in
terferes with the efficiency OF
a teacher she may hold her po-
sition, and certainly she is en-
titled to that privilege, but if
in the judgment of school au-
thorities she becomes less COM
petent as an instructor she will
be measured by the same rule
as other teachers, and prob
ably dismissed.
The ruling of the court is in
line with good sense and JUS
tice. Let merit be the stand
