ST. JOSEPH, Mich. Sept. 22.-,
Many peach grower in the fruit
belt along Lake Michigan went out
In his orchard In June, smiled and
bought an automobile. In this re-
gion there are now several used
cars for sale cheap. II has been
great season for peaches but slim
season for the growers.
The prospective heavy profits are
today rotting In the orchards, being
fed to the pigs or being dumped on
a surfeited market at price that
will not cover the cost OF the
baskets, picking. packing and trans
portation.
The aristocrat OF the peach fam
lily is the Alberta. When folks
around here want to be nice to
friends in Chicago, Detroit or MIL

President HadIey,s Meaning.

President Hadley's Meaning.
President Hadley's power of
condensation as a writer and
speaker is we'll known. He says
much in little and seldom resorts
to Illustration. In advocating
national preparedness, in the po-
litical and moral as well as in
the military sense, at Norwich,
Conn, on Tuesday, Mr.. Hadley
said:
"the thing that has made Germany
dangerous in the present war is the
belief that she has a new political
gospel to preach to the world-a Cos
pei so important that it allows her to
override treaties and even to disre-
gard the dictates of common human
ity as being of small Importance in
comparison with the new gospel which
she has to preach"
President Hadley of course al
ludes to the gospel of KaItar,
which must be taken in a mill
tary as well as in a political and
moral sense. It is an assumption
of superiority in the art of war
no less than in science, industry
and government. Germany re-
CARDS herself as the most intel
ligent, thorough and masterful
nation in all that relates to hui
man progress. With serene faith
in herself she believes it would
be better for the world if she
conquered her enemies in Eu-
rope; that the world would ben
eft by her example, her teach
ings and her political regulation
In short, the German Imperial
Government aims to be the, as
distinguished from a, world
Power. This, we have no doubt
is what President Hadley means
The bearing upon the duty of the
United States to set its house il
order and to arm to defend its
national policies must be obvious
to the plainest understanding
