POPE PESSIMISTIC
OVER PEACE PROSPECTS

Rome, Aug. 1o.-The pope has
granted an audience to the French
Cardinal Billot, a Jesuit, who has con-
fided TO his friends that the pontiff 10
deeply grieved by the failure of his
efforts toward peace and is now con-
WINGED that the war is bound to be
prolonged another year.
It is also learned that the pontiff Is
deeply concerned over the epidemics
OF disease now raging. He fears that
these will increase the mortality to
such an extent that Europe will be
depopulated.
Cardinal BilIot's impression is that
the pope Is pessim!stic over the situa-
ton, In striking contrast to his recent
hopefulness for peace.

bounds.
The idea has ben carried out all
over the United States until there are
only I'VE states In which 1t has still
to be tried, explained Mr.. Newbill.
The wheat output Of South Dakota
was increased more than 50 per cent
last year by the children farmers. and
in Iowa the corn crop has been in
creased nearly that per cent. In the
Southern states, where the pig club
idea has gained tremendous favor,
the children last year practically
tided over their parents when the
cotton crop refused to bring big
prices.
Raise Fine Fruits.
In fruit raising also the club idea
has proved extremely popular In
Washington, said Mr.. Newbill. Each
boy allows himself 10 cents an hour
for the time he puts in pruning and
caring for his trees. and this sum Is
deducted from the yearly profits. His
net receipts. however, invariably are
comparatively large.
Canning fruit 10 another OF the
many branches encouraged by the
government. The fruit is put up
under a label bearing the "4-H
brand" and brings ~ good prices as
any in the market.
"Our motto IL "A Little Better Than
the Best" said Mr.. Newbill, "and
the children strive their best to carry
out the idea"
Anyone who wants to take advan-
tage of the plan should either COM
municate with Mr.. Newbill at the
State College at Pullman or, better
still, visit the state superintendeut's
once in the capitol building In this
city.
