Warsaw, the City of the Broken
Heart, her Polish children call her, and
her history lends ample claim to the
title
Warsaw looks on the forward rolling
Tcutonic armies with indifference.
Capture is an old story to her. For
centuries She has known the worst that
can befall city occupied by foreign
soldiery. In changing her Russian
shackes for those of German make she
must experience little emotion. Hope
died in Warsaw a century and half
ago. Since then Poland has been the
prey Of Germany, Austria and Russia.
Once Warsaw was the capital of the
proudest and most warlike people of
Europe From her gates the great John
Sobiesky, Poland's king and the fGie-
most warrior of his time, rode forth at
the head Of his armorcd regiments anu
his terrible WINGED Hussars-cavalry
of noble blood, who wore rivetted to
the back of their cuirasses great
feather wings. With the flower of Pol
ISL chivalry behind him, he smote The
Turks st Vienna and hurled back the
MOslem wave which threatened to en-
gulf Europe.

armed nobility that Poland came into

Warsaw, to direct the policies of the

was necessary for any action, and rare
iy was this obtained. 1t was impossible
to build up strong central govern
ment. The discussions of the diet weak
ened the state. and il fell an easy prey
to IFS three land-greedy neighbors.
From l655 scarcely generation has
passed without Warsaw hearing the
tramp of foreign troops through her
streets. In that year Charles Gustayus,
of Sweden. invaded Poland on pre-
text, took Warsaw and Cracow and
dominated the entire land.

Quarrelsome and disunited among
themselves, it needed only national
calamity like this to unite the freedom
loving Poles. The whole country rose
as one man and swept the Swedish

To Keep Sugar Beets From Losing
Valuable Element BY Drying

n ton for every additional / per cent
Of sucrose. with a deduction of 20
cents a ton for every l per cent less
than 16 until the acceptable minimum
is reached.
Under this system it will be seen
that the increment of sucrose is paid
for at practically the same rate per
cent as the basal price Of s. for 10
per cent beets. Fractions of l per
cent are paid at the same rate.
An example of the fiat rate would
be So a ton for all beets testing Ia
per cent of sucrose or more.
It is at once evident that any or
binary loss in weight due to delay
of one day or everal days between
d,gg ng and weighing is, under the
sliding scale, reasonably well com
pensated for, and that the loss In
that time due to chemical changes
is practically negligible, provided the
sucrose test is made from beets tax
en- when they are delivered and are
weighed and not from a sample taken
from the field just before or immedi
ately after the crop is dug.
The slid ng scale would probably
also be fairly equitable in dealing
with beets that have been piled un
der the sugar company's instructions
for one or two weeks.
The farmer who, whether or not
from choice, accepts the fiat rate
sustains an actual money loss cor
responding to the shrinkage in ton
mage through evaporation. He is pai(
according to the net weight Of hi'
Leets at the time they are weighed
on the factory scales. Let us say
good beet grower obtains a yield o
20 tons an acre and agrees to accep
fiat rate of S. ton. This equals
! 800, gross receipts an acre. FIX
periments have shown that an aver
age daily shrinkage of about Go pc
cent may occur when handling tn
beets in the ordinary manner. Beet
are often left several days in the fell
after they have been dug. Thi
means loss of $3.50 day per acre
When the farmer has no ALTERNATIVE
but to accept a fiat rate he may re
tard the evaporation of his beets b
leaving them in large piles covere
with the beet tops, as previously d.
scribed Utah Farmer.

TeutOnic Allies
Can Expect Nothing
From ROmania

Berlin, Aug. A warning that
nothing can be expected from Ruma
ma is conveyed to the readers OF tho
Tages Zeitung in an editorial this
morning by Count Ernst Won Revent'
low. His article, which is headed
"Rumania's Falling Quitation," sum-
marizes the situation in the following
paragraph:
"Those friendly relations with Ru-
mania made sacred by tradition and
ON the German side by firm conf
dence-can hardly longer be con-
sidered as existing"
Count Won Reventlow points out
Rumania's refusal to permit exports
of grain or to permit ammunition for
the Turks to pass through its terri
tory although Russia was permitted
to transship munitions to Serbia.
He says It had been hoped Rumania
would fulfil its treaty obligations or
preserve, at least, an upright and
we'll wishing neutrality, but that the
contrary came to pass. Rumania's
neutrality became malevolent, he as
serts with a tendency to enter the
conflict on the side of Germanys enc.
mics.
The Importance Of Rumania's aid
to Germany and Turkey has been
greatly lessened, however, Count Won
Reventlow insists. Before Russias
Galician defeat, Rumania would have
been a military factor in cooperation
with the Muscovites, he says, but
that time is past and her military and
political value as an opponent Of
Germany is vanishing. The period
when Ruman'a could be considered a
leading factor in the development of
the Balkan states has gone by the
article declares.

wrong apprehension. They see con-
nection between the pontincal docu-

He was led to write 1t only because
