EXPECT BUMPER CORN
nELO IN MEXICO

MEXICO CITY, Oct. 22.-The corn
harvest has begun with the prospect
that about 55,OoO,O0o bushels will be
garnered, which Is insufficient for Mex
ico's 100000 inhabitants, the misery
and distress which has prevailed for
months past will be greatly acecntuat-
ed during the winter months.
American Red Cross representatives
haev tried vainly for the past fortnight
to purchase corn and other cereals and
have finally been compelled to place
their orders in the United States with
the hope that delivery will be made In
time to relieve the grave situation
which the Mexican poor will have to
face during the cold winter. Corn is
still selling at prohibitive price for
those who need it and the prospective
crop shortage of 6S per cent. will
greatly increase even this price.

SOUTHERN RURAL|sT
BACKS THE FESTIVAL

ATLANTA, Ca, Oct. 22.-The agri-
cultural and horticultural exhibits of
the southeastern fair and Harvest fes-
tival here in November will be ar
ranged under the auspices ana direc-
tim of the Southern Ruralist, and will
be the most interesting in the history
of agriculture in this section. Tie
Southern Ruralist has already contrib
uted several thousand dollars in prizes
to be awarded exhibitors. The prizes
include three cash prizes In, gold, ag-
gregating $1,000. These classes will
be open to all subscribers to the South
ern Ruralist. The extraordinary in
terest attached to this exhibition is
demonstrated by the number of en-
tries already received, already totalling
511.
The exhibitions will be housed in the
magnificent new concrete structures,
each occupying full acre of space,
which are being erected by the Fair as
sociation at Lakewood, and for which
$4,000 has been appropriated by the
city, the county and individual citi-
zens.
1t is believed that the fair and Har-
vest festival will bring the largest
crowds to Atlanta that the city has
ever had. The annual Georgia Corn
show will be held co-incident with the
other features, and there will be an i'm
mense livestock exhibit by the Here
ford Cattle association.

OTHER CROPS OFFSET
LOW YIELD OF WHEAT

PARIS. Oct Ex-senator Jules Me-
line, former president of the cabinet,
presiding at the annual meeting of the
Agricultural assembly, presented sta
tistics showing that the potato and
forage crops this year are so abundant
as to compensate the shortage in
wheat The excess Of hay produced
over other years enables the feeding
of enough live stock to make up for all
the necessary acquisitions of meat for
the army. THE eliminating point in
the meat crisis" he says, will come
after the war when all the belligerent
nations will have pressing needs with
reduced means of production. Conse-
quently the forage crops mean quite as
much to France as its production of
wheat"

THE TWO FRIARS.

THE TWO FRIARS.
A Jolly friar met gloomy friar
Upon the kings highway,
Said the frowning one to the Laughing
How can you look so gay?"
Said the cheerful one, "Im a pessi-
mist, rs
And SO expect but ills,
And frequent disappointment
My soul with rapture fills!"
Said the frowning one, I'm an op.
timist,
And so hope for the best
When things go wrong it makes me
grieve
To think how life is messed"
And So each changed his point Of view
But, very strangely, found.
The same one laughed, the same one
scowled,
The other way around.

template that there be times when men
cannot live peaceably with men. I'm
der present world conditions adequate
preparation against war may be our
best insurance against war; and in
these critical times we cannot totally
disarm the world about US in an armed
camp, neither are we justified in being
so i'll prepared that we cannot repel
possible dangers.
The evils of war as a method of
settling controversies are enough to
condemn it. The cost in money is
enormous; and it cannot be justified
economically. Still greater are the
losses to moral character; it calls for
the baser qualities in men and demon
allies and corrupts men and nations.
Christianity finally abolished the
right to personal vengeance, substitute
ing instead court of law as the meth
cd of settling disputes. Its principles
were worked into international affairs
by the adoption of the principle of ar
bitration. Its mission will not be COM
plete until the misunderstanding of
nations are also settled by law and not
by force, just as the personal disputes
Of men are now settled by law.
There is ground for hope that in the
days to come, after the fires of the
present world-war have burned mems
passions to ashes, that the world will
see the futility of war as means of
determining justice, and turn to a
completer acceptance of Christianity's
method.

MORNING-SPOKE ON WAR
AND CHRISTIANITY.
V. f. Stenersen, one of Minoa

V. E. Stenersen, one Of Minot's
V. E. Stenerson, one of Minot's
prominent attorneys, delivered an I'M
usually strong address at the Presby-
terrain church Sunday morning, choos-
ing for his subject, "War and Christ
ianity.' Rev. P w. Erickson, the
large audience greeted Mr.. Stenersen
and enjoyed the effort thoroly. We
give the following short review Of Mr.
Stenersen's address:
"War has played great role in hui
man progress and has been the cause
of great movements Of civilization; it
has stimulated invention and science
and inspired men and nations to great
sacrifice and accomplishments. But
admitting all that war has done for
civilization it constitutes no defense
for militarism, which is repugnant to
religion and Christianity. Christianity
touches an abandonment of force, SO
far as is possible, in the settlement of
controversies; not that there is to be
no resistance to all wrong doing, but
only when it is inevitable should force
he used.
Christianity substitutes for force
impartial arbitration founded on i'm
partial justice.
Christianity and war are inconsist-
emit; the former would settle disputes
by reason, while war appeals to force
War is like the old wager of battle,
which was founded on the theory that
God was with the combatants in bat
tie and would protect the innocent
We no longer believe that might
makes right; neither does war estab-
lish justice, which it is supposed to do
but merely question of authority.
