ply and demand, and just as sure as
there is widespread ignorance of sex
matters.
In filming the women of the district
the court should not and does not ask
how they made their money, and, ac-
cOrdingly, is not supposed to discTim-
mate between like offenses. Now the
very mention of sex hygiene in GER
tain quarters is enough to start a cy-
clone, or something. And even if the
earth might quake for a while after
making it legally one of the courses
in the public schools, the results to
the feW-whOse parents have at least
done part of their duty toward them
will surely justify their repetition.
The church could become a big fac
tor in this work if it's precedents were
less rigid. Public lectures to parents
by physicians of standing would be
one Of the several ways of starting
the movement for the spreading of
sex knowledge. These talks would
no doubt have to be piquant enough
to attract and end with illustrating
the danger of irreverent use of a most
wonderful power.
There would, of course, be dan
ger in advancing the part of the sub
ject of which the girl would surely get
wind that would indicate to her the
methods of child prevention aside
from abstinence. But we would, of
course, depend upon the general re-
suit, which would in all reason be
better than knowledge gained hap
hazard. The idea of the undertaking
is the teaching of the principle run
ming through such observation as, for
example, that effort has always been
the price of anything worth while.
Too much encouragement is given
these silly dances usually practiced
by the young people in the stuffy ball
rooms, and by girls who especially
need fresh air more than anything

 They have had to substitute entire ly new attacking forces three or four times. SO great were their losses from rifle fire, the bayonet and sui location in the snow-covered ravines.
 The Russians are now approaching the broad roads which converge lo the best farming land in Hungary.
 Great endorsements, both Austri- an and German, are filing the p-e- pared defensive positions. 4 large number of Qualifications have been thrown up to protect the southern roads. :.

 DEAD AT LES EPARGES
Germans Appear tS se Losing Ground EverywheHe. But sriin Chronicles Repals \ II rench Attacks
 with Heaty Loss.

Paris, April g.. srEne official state ment was issued tonight:
 'In spite of persi stent bad weather We attained furtl~sr success last night and today i;a4ween the Mouse and the Moselle. 7s Les Eparges, a night attack cnabhd us to make an- other move forwafsi. and today we maintain our prog1ess there despite three violent counter attacks. We have already counted on the ground more than 1000 German dead
 "In sharp infantry action further south, at the woods Of La Morv1lle, We wiped out one German company, leaving only ten survivors whom we made prisoners.
 "In the woods of Ally we carried more trenches ard repulsed two counter attacks.
 ''In the Montmarte woods, north Of Flirey, we gained n foothold in the enemy's defensive organization and held our ground there against all his efforts to recapture it. Northwest O. these woods. at Par nes, one of our shells cut the cable holding German captive balloon. The balloon drifted. southward in our lines.
 Summing up tIQ offensive recon naisances and attacksswhich we have been carrying out. since April 4, be- tween the Mouse and theAMoselle, we have achieved up to the prsent the following results:
 "First, northeast and east of Yer dun, we have gained ground varying from a third of a mile to a, mile in depth, along a front of twelve and one-half miles; we have occupied the heights commanding the Orne, and have taken the villages of Gussain- vile and Fromezey.
 Second, on the heights of the Mouse, at Les Eparges, we have cap tured almost the whole of the strong position held by the enemy on the plateau dominating Combres. and we have maintained our ground in spite of numerous counter attacks.
 "Third, further south near St. Me hiel, we have captured all the south western part of the woods of Ally, where the Germans were strongly es- tablished and which they have been unable to retake by repeated coun- ter attacks.
 Fourth, in southern Woevre, be- tween lMortmatre woods and the for- est of Le Petre, we have advanced about two miles on front five miles long, and have taken from the en- emy the villages of Feyen-Haye and Regnieville.
 "At all these points, the Germans suffered formidable losses, the extent of which may be guaged by their number of bodies at Les Eparges."

CLARKE BITTER
 IN DENUNCIATION
 0F THE GOVERNOR
Ridicules Hays Declaration of a "Still, Small Voice"
 in Racing Bill Matter.

Little Rock, April 8.--"Governor Hays says that still, small voice spoke to him when he vetoed the race horse bill, but he doesn't say whether h> heard the still small voice before he gave the bill to his secretary to report it or afterWard The cOnstitu- ton of the United States says the mere signing of the bill makes it a law. Governor Hays signed the bill which is evidence that he intended it should become law. The constitution is not concerned with still or large voices; it only requires jusf what Governor Hays did-that he affix his signature. The fact tha. Governor Hays scratched out the prefix dis to deceive his friends has no bearing up on the case. That such practices are indulged in by Governor Hays has no bearing upon the case. He proved his intention of apprhvlng the bill when he signed it.. When he ran his pen through dis he didn't run it through his signature because he knew that the constitution doesn't require any thing on a bill other than his sigma ture."
 These were a few of the assertions of United States Senator James F. Clarke, when arguments were opened in the second division of the circuit court this morning in the mandamus proceedings against Secretary Earle w. Hodges to compel him to declare the Sawyer racing bill law. Judge Fulk took the case under ad- vsement and stated he would an- nounce later upon what date he would return his decision.
 The Governors Side. J. w. NcHaffy, who, with c. c. Reid, is assisting Attorney General w. l.. Moose in the defense, answered MT. Martin.
 eve are passing our contentious en- tirely on the bill as record which shows that it has been disapprcved and vetoed by Governor Hays. If we take the parole evidence Governor Hays intended to sign the bill, if not he did not sign the bill. To sign 3 | bill is to affix a signature to the bill at the time you intend to approve thu bill. The signing of the bill alone does not make the bill valid. It mus be approved at the time that the sig mature is made. Governor Hays say' that to get some of his friends ou of the way he drew his pen througl the prefix dis He did this, but h.
 did not draw his pen through tn lword vetoed

Winter and Spring Care
or Alfalfa.

The only safe way to preserve the
alfalfa stand over winter, even OF the
hardest strains, IL to follow Joe
Wings advice, given at the North
Dakota Corn and Glover Convention
at Grand Forks last year: "No ami.
NAL should ever be allowed to tread
on it when it is frosted.' If the live.
stock must run in the winter, the al
falfa fields should be fenced to pre-.
vent encroachment. The first spring
after the alfalfa has been sown is its
critical period. At this time it should
be narrowed thoroughly with peg
tooth harrow as early in the spring as
the land is in good condition to work.
Do not do this when the soil is too
wet or so soft that the horses will sink
into the surface of the soil, yet it must
be done before the alfalfa makes much
growth. If the SOL is very hard and
compact, disc Or alfalfa renovator
should be run over the land in such a
way that the crowns of the young al
falfa plants are not injured; the har.
row should then follow the disc or al
falfa renovator. After the alfalfa has
been cut it should be disced- lightly
and narrowed, or else the spring tooth
harrow should be used upon it. Pos.
sibly the spring tooth harrow is the
very best that can he used on alfalfa
fields. In this respect vlfalfa is like
corn-it needs a good deal Of cultiva.
tion. When sown in rows it can be
cultivated with the corn cultivator to
very good advantage. This practice
has tendency to raise the soil ridges
along the row. 1t should be CROSS
cultivated with the peg or the, spring
tooth harrow to eliminate teese ridges.
Each year after the second spring and
after each cutting, 1t should be worked
up into mellow, loose condition on
the surface either by means OF the peg
tooth harrow, the, disc, alfalfa reno.
vstor, or the spring tooth harrow.
This should be done promptly aftsr
each cutting.
