ANOTHER BIG WHEAT CROP.

In the midst Of distressing war news
comes prophesy Of the greatest wheat
crop in the history Of the country.
The department OF agriculture esti-
mates that the winter wheat. which

sections in another month. will reach

els. surprising last years record by
s. 900. 600 bushels. This figure is ad-
mittedly conservative. Chicago grain
experts are predicting a winter wheat
crop of 7OO.OOO.O0O to $4,000. 900
bushels. The condition of wheat in
nearly every part Of the country is so
good. and there is so slight chance
Of deterioration before harvest time,
that the grain men see no cause for
conservatism.
At current prices this output will
be worth nearly billion dollars. And
the price is more likely to so up than
down. because OF the lessened produc-
ton in Europe.
Thus II the rest OF the crop, the
spring wheat is merely up 10 the av-
erage-and with any sort OF cnance
it will be more than that. because
several million more acres have been
sown in wheat than last year-we may
expect total output for the year OF

AMMUNITION AND PASSENGER
SHIPS

Regardless OF our present contrO-
versy with Germany, il would be bet
ter if passengers we're kept off ammu-
milton ships and ammunition kept off
passenger ships. Then there would be
no possible excuse for the destruction
of neutral life at sea
1t would be better still if passenger
traffic and freight traffic could be sep
arated absolutely while the war lasts
placing a vessel definitely in one class
or the other somewhat as passenger
and freight trains are distinguished in
railroad traffic, neutral nations would
have a far easier time forcing bel
ligerents TO respect their rights.
This suggestion is purely one OF ex-
pediency. There is NO international
law or custom forbidding the carry
ing of war munitions on ocean liners.
There is a federal law in this country
which forbids the carrying on pas
senger ships. domestic or foreign,
"nitroglycerine, dynamite or any other
explosive article or compound. or gum
powder. or any article which would be
likely TO endanger the health or lives
Of passengers or the safety of the yes

matter what course Of action the Ger

CAN'T FOLLOW TWO FLAGS.
Ondiananolis Times.l


Our state department has promul-
gated recently a new doctrine of dual
nationality. p. a. LeLOng, jr., of New
Orleans, son of a Frenchman who had
become a naturalized American cit
izen. is informed by the secretary of
state that if he goes to France he will
be subject to a call to fight under the
French flag.
LeLong, born in this country of u
father who had taken out naturaliza-
ton papers in this country, is told he
is subject to dual nationality. The
government OF the United States has
declined to give LeLOng any assur-
ance that he would not be held liable
for military service in France, if he
were to place himself voluntarily
within French jurisdiction.
In other words, this American citi-
zen, under the ruling, could be inn
pressed by France and the United
States would not say one word in sup
port of his American citizenship nor
aid him in-gaining his rights as a citi-
zen of the republic.
This theory of a dual nationality
must be abandoned without delay.
Under such a contention Gen. GOethalS
would be compelled TO serve Holland
as we'll as the United States. The dual
nationality proposition is absurd, but
il is much more serious than absurd.
The state department ought TO lose
no time in putting itself right on the
citizenship of p a. LeLong, jr. He is
not subject to French military service.
He is an American, and is entitled to
protection as such. That protection
cannot justly be withheld or denied,
no matter what the jurisdiction in
which an orderly citizen is placed.

CAN THERE BE PROFIT IN WAR?

profit in war. In fact, that seems to

go to war for proft-that is, they

If Germany believed she could prof

If too much fertilizer is applied 70
the citrus trees the results will be
disastrous. This is especially true of
Young trees. Cooperative experiments
carried out at Tavares by the univer-
sitv of Florida Experiment Station
showed that about six pounds year
was the optimum amount fon young
trees. Trees receiving twice that
amount were injured and those re-
ceiving "A pounds year were killed.
B. F. Floyd, plant Psychologist TO
the Experiment Station received an
inquiry from a grower recently who
has been applying a pound Of com
rlete fertilizer to the tree every SIX
weeks. His trees are a year old
from setting, and he complains that
they are not thriving. At that rate
tbey would be receiving almost nine
pounds a year. 1t is probable that
he has been using too much fertilizer.
Mr., FLOYD suggests that half a pound
tree probably would give better
results.
Care should be exercised in feed
ing young trees at such close inter
walls. Overlooking with complete
fertilizers in which the source Of am.
monia is organic is apt to put the
trees in that condition of growtt
which makes them susceptible to die
