THE BALANCE OF TRADE

Europe this year Is buying from
the United States much greater
quantities of goods than normally.
For the six months ending with
duced some $115, 100000. Her ex-
ports expanded 100000. Her
tourist Expenditures, which normally
are at least 5000, 100000 year were
practically nothing. Thus America
had a balance in her favor amounting
to in the neighborhood of 100000
900 more than she had in the first
six months of 1914.

SOUND COUNTRY
LIFE is NEEDED
FOR OUR NATION
Declares Clifford Pinchot in an
Address before Church
Conference.

COLUMBUS. o.. Dec. 9.-The need
OF vigorous and sound" country life
and the important role played by the
rural church in producing such a
condition. were emphasized in the adj
dress which clifford Pinchot OF Mil
ford. Pa. delivered here today as
chairman OF the Conference on Church
and Rural Life The conference was
held in connection with the conven-
ton OF the Federal Council OF
Churches Of Christ in America.
The country church Is one of the
great roots from which. spring ma
tional integrity, vitality and intelli-
gence. Its life and power are OF ma
iion-wide concern said Mr.. Pinchot,
and continued:
I'VE are here also to call the atten-
ton OF the Christian people of the
United States TO the existence OF the
country church problem. and to ask
them TO consider with us the needs
OF the country church, TO find out
how best to meet these needs, how
to strengthen and vitalize and above
all. how to fl the country church for
the actual modern task with which 1t
is face to face.
"The problems which confront us
can no moro be solved by the indivi-
dual country church. or by the coun-
try churches OF any one denomina-
ton, than the problems OF rural life
can be solved by the owner OF any
one farm. or the farmers Of any one
state In this, as in all other under
takings among men, union is strength.
We work TO best advantage when we
work together.
If cooperation. among country
churches for the general welfare OF
the work is sound and wise. and II CO.
operation among farmers will lead to
stronger and richer spiritual. CEN
tai, and physical life on the farm. then
the country church as whole is in
terested in cooperation among farm
ers | do not contend that the church
should take the functions OF the
Grange or of the agricultural school,
but | do believe that the frequent
failure OF the country churches
through their ministers to get into
productive touch with the work and
the needs of the country people is one
OF the fundamental reasons for tho
present weakness of the country
church.
THE movement we have met to fur
Their is sound and practical in its pur-
pose, and deeply needed. The work
which lies before the country church
may we'll be second to no other ,n
the power Of its thrust toward u social
order founded on the ethics of Jesus
Christ"

WILSON GETS
CREDIT FOR
new POLICY
Which is That of Cooperation
between Nations of North
and South America.
434 w. Pike st.

NEW YORK, Dec. 9.-President
Wilson was given credit for estab-
fishing n policy of cooperation be-
tween the nations of North and South
America in an address delived here
before the International Trade Con-
ference by Fredrico Alfonso Pezet.
Peruvian minister to the United
States.
Mr.. Pezett addressed the confer
ence on the necessity of better uu-
Outstanding between the people Of the
United States and the nations of Lat
in America. Referring to President
Wilson he said:
President Wilson has shown us
the road to an American solidarity
through frank policy Of co-opera-
ton In all matters OF continental in
terest. His actions have paved the
way for the better understanding be-
tween the two great families that peo-
pie the western hemisphere. He has
brough Henry Clay's and James G..
Blaine's Pan-Americanism step fur
Their and made 1t a practical Ameri-
can policy"
Mr.. Pezet made an earnest plea for
better understanding by the people
OF the United States of other nations,
especially those of the southern half
fthe continent.
"In the relations of nations with
one another" he said, at is essential
that q certain amount Of give and
take be INDUCED in on either side.
This Is so much more necessary to-
day. when 1t Is an acknowledged fact
that no nation at the present time can
afford to look down upon because It
may happen TO be territorially small
Ter, or commercially less important.
or financially less well off. or even
less materially powerful from mill
tary or naval point OF view"
The Peruvian minitser claimed that
efforts by the South American nations
to bring about closer relations with
the United States and mutually bet
ter understanding and SO far met
met with q certain amount OF failure
because OF lack OF understanding anu
cooperation on the part Of this coun-
try. He instanced the case Of efforts
made to bring the Peruvian line Of
steamers to! this country. making Bal
timore their northern terminus.
"our boats came In due time" he
said. with overflow cargoes of South
American produce. but we had to
return laden with coke, as there was
no other available cargo. Gentlemen,
the experiment proved q one-sided
affair; 1t could not be profitable un.
der the circumstances to the company
and had to DO abandoned
Mr.. Pezet criticised American bust
ness men as lacking in self-confidence
and as being too conservative, defects
which he claimed were responsible
for thier lack OF success in building
up trade with Latin-America.
The matter Is that you yourselves,
notwithstanding your tremendous. de-
ve1opment and the fact Of your won
drous resources. are not yet hall
awakened to the new position that
has been thrust upon you by circum-
stances over which you have had nc

FARMER SAVES ENERGY
HitchcS Drill Back of Buggy and
Works at Ease.

PETERSBURG. Ind. May 19.-S. J.
Haines. a landlord farmer living in
this place has shown some of the real
farmers a few things about farming.
Yesterday Haines drove out TO the
field where one of his men was drilling
in corn with a hand drill. The field was
large and the man was tired. Haines
did not feel like pushing the pillow for
him. so he told the man TO hitch the
drill on the back OF his buggy. and all
afternoon Haines drove the buggy up
and down the field. smoking a cigar
and enjoying himself immensely. while
the man guided the pillow behind. As
the farmers passed by, they stopped
and gazed in Amusement at the meth
cd Haines was using in getting his field
planted.
