Lime Not a cure-AII.

Don't expect lime to do everything.
1t won't and can't. 1t simply paves
the way for the clover, or alfalfa. In
case alfalfa is seeded inoculate before
or during seeding to insure a success
full crop. If the soil is very poor. an
application of manure plowed under
will prove exceedingly profitable. 1t
must be remembered, therefore, that
lining and fertilizing should go hand
in hand in any soil-improvement plan.

Big Glazing Mil of American Powder

Care Of Armed Guards.
BELIEF IS THAT ACTS WERE DELIBERATE

Acton, With a shock that
was felt within radius of 40 miles
the glazing mill of the American Pow
der company, which since the war has
been working up to its capacity, blew
up early Sunday. So far as known
nobody was killed.
The actual money loss to the COM
pany was not heavy, but it was stated
that work on large orders probably
would be held up for several weeks.
Property owners in the surrounding
towns, particularly in Maynard, were
heavy losers because of shattered win
dows.
The mill had been closed down since
Saturday afternoon and the police ex-
pressed the belief that the explosion
had been caused with intent to cripple
the plant.
Armed guards have been stationed
about the works for several weeks.

Plan to Wreck Train Fails.

Plan to wreck rain rails.
Gary, Ind.-An apparent attempt to
wreck train carrying guncotton was
revealed Sunday, when it was found
that the plates holding two rails had
been removed, short distance from
the Aetna Powder works. The train
was due to leave the works within a
few hours and was loaded with NUM-
tions of war bound east for shipment
to the war zone.
The police did not credit reports that
the alleged attempted derailing of
the train had any connection with the
murder of Rev. E. A. Kayser, five
days ago, but said the possibility of
such connection would be investigat-
ed. The murder of Kayser had been
declared to have been the result of his
pro-German sympathies.

FOOD PRICES

The German decree fixing the
price of potatoes allows farmers 20
charge $13.75 to S18.25 per metric
ton of 2,204 pounds. This figures out
SO to 50 cents a bushel, a sufficient,
but SCARCELY fancy price. The minute
regulations for distribution must
bring the potatoes to the users door
quite as cheap as in America, for in
stance, where they now sell whole
sale at pretty nearly 81 a bushe1. 1t
is in meat, fats, fowls, eggs, butter,

IN sufficient quantities-that Germany

from four to six months. But it is
useless without its corps of trained
quartermasters. 1t can accomplish
little without them.
The office of quartermaster re
quires a mar of a high order of III
telligence, quick discernment, iron
determination and unquestioned in
tegrity. He must be coo1-headed,
energetic and persistent-a man who
rides over all obstacles and "gets
there on time with the goods"
The duties of the position are SO
numerous, so varied and so intricate
as to require years of training to pro-
duce even a moderately successful
quarternaster. The civilian without
training or theoretical knowledge
who is made an officer Of the quar-
termaster corps over night and sent
to the front is nothing but a handi-
cap and a detriment. If appointed in
large numbers, as has been done IN
all of III past wars, they even CON
stitute a serious meance to the sue
c~essful execution of movements Of
vital Importance to an army in the
field.
The quartermaster corps of an
army clothes, feeds, shelters and
transports the troops; it provides
horses, mules and the forage and
equipment for them; it furnishes
stoves, fuel and light; constructs
reads, bridges, railroads, barracks,
warehouses, docks and wharves;
charters ships, tugs and other means
of water carriage; pay officers, men
and other employees; furnishes trans
portation for all material of war;
Supplies tentage, cots, bedding in
Generators, and in fact, everything
for the upkeep of an army, with the
exception of arms, ammunition, med
zeal supplies, engineer and signal
property. And Of these manifold
duties none is of more vital import
ance than that of subsisting the
troops.

A WEAK LINK IN THE NATION
AL CHAIN

1t has been left to the far-sighted-
ness of Colonel d. E. Mccarthy,
chief quartermaster OF the central de
partment of the United States army,
to bring to the fore at this time one
Of the weakest links in our chain oil
national defense, and that is the
wholly inadequate provision that IS
made for an enlarged quartermaster
corps in time OF war.
Colonel Mccarthy has recommend
ed to the war department that a
quartermaster reserve corps of the
brightest executive minds in the coun-
try be organized in time Of peace sui
ficient in size to supply the require
ments of an army of a million men,
which would be the smallest force
this country could expect to put into
the field in time Of war. These men
could be commissioned by the presi-
dent as captains and ~lieutenants in
the quartermaster reserve corps Of
the federal army, but without pay
until called into active service, as is
now the case with the medical re-
serve corps.
To the average layman this may
not appear to be Of supreme import
ance, but to the trained man it is IL
Eliminating, and for several reasons.
An army, however efficient and
valorous in other respects, is almost
wholly dependent upon the prompt
and thorough execution of the duties
pertaining to the quartermaster
corps. If that corps is weak the
usefulness of the whole army is SER
impaired, is dangerously near
to being destroyed.
A fighting unit of an army can be
trained for reasonable service in

THE SONG PRESIDENT WILSON
DID NOT LIKE
B United Press

A few days ago the Appeals press
service announced that the author OF
= song dedicated to President Wilson
and Mrs Gait had been asked by the
presidents secretary to kindly sup
press the composition, but irrespec-
tive of the reqpest the song was pub
lished. 1t is as follows:
Pretty Little Indian Maid
A paleface chief OF a mighty tribe,
On the trail OF an Indian squaw,
In his light canoe that was built FOR
two,
Came drifting to the shore.
A lovers dart hit the white man 5
heart
From the girl of copper shade,
For he was the chief OF the paleiace
tribe
And she was an Indian maid.
Chorus.
You are red and | am white;
That makes our love true blue.
For I know that you love me,
And you know love you.
Let us stroll together meath the sill
very moon
When the twilight shadows fade
and I'll crown you the lady OF the
p~aleface tribe,
Ny pretty little Indian maid.
In a great big mansion, her white
chiefs home,
Far away from the prairie plain,
And light canoe and the wigwm, too
They sigh for them in vain.
At the setting sur, when their work
is done,
They dream Of the forest glade,
Where she met the chief OF the pale
face tribe
And he met the Indian maid.
In his letter to M. J. Fitzpatrick
the song writer, Secretary Iumulty
said: Replying to your letter q!

to say to you that he would be very
much obliged if the song to which
you refer were not published. Hs
would be very much distressed il i
