New York and Pennsylvania.

This news note appeared in yester-
days Star:
President Wilson has no intention
of interfering in factional differ
ences between democrats IN New
York and Pennsylvania. He told
callers today that he thought the
peopic OF each state were able TO
look after their own affairs.
An excellent resolution. But can
the President keep ite Probably
not.
The Pennsylvania problem is not
especially difficult. Normally repub-
Iiean on an issue-the tariff-which
is very prominent again, the Key
stone state holds out no hope to the
democracy for next year. All the
patronage left in the Presidents
sack could not be invested there to
advantage. With the withdrawal of
Mr.. Palmer from politics, the demo-
cratic party of the commonwealth IS
left icaderless.
But New York, as always, presents
problem which can neither be ig-
nored nor easily handled. 1t IS like
wise of the greatest Importance to
the President He must carry the
state next year in order to be re-
elected.
Another point is that he and his
friends are charged with responsible
ity for the larger part Of the party's
embarrassment there. Where the
organization has not been neglected,
it has been openly warred upon.
Factionism has been promoted and
intensified by the distribution of pat
ronage and the severe denunciations
Of Tammany.
For these reasons, the President,
most decidedly. has New York on his
hands, and must minister to his
party's local woes. And he will be
dealing with expert politicians and
professional troublemakers. The out
slider who ventures into New York
tlnds himself in a lions den. as the
White House record abundantly
shows. Hayes, Garfield. Harrison
and Taft all found the state hard
road to travel.
Mr.. Wilson's cmbarrassments are
the heavier because of his don1ina-
tion of his party. In New York, as
elsewhere. he is the party. Disputes
are put up to him for settlement.
His the praise for everything that
goes right. his the blame for every
thing that goes wrong.
Try as he may. therefore. the Pres
ident cannot escape New York. It IS
not question of keeping out. He is
already in. The question relates to
his future steps in the state. His
party is divided, and he is expected
to play the role of the unifier. If he
cannot play it. the state is lost to
him. If he can, the study of the role
should begin at once. Pennsylvania
need not occupy him. 1t is the
enemy's country" But New York is
still reckoned as debatablc ground,
and Mr.. Wilson stands very much in
need of it,

seed catalogue and devouring vegc-
tables in pictorial forn-beets and
beans, redder and larger, greener and
longer than any that ever grew out
side the catalogue or the sprightly
fancy of an amateur gardener.
Garden anticipations are uplifting
to the spirit, the smell of new-turned
earth is tonic, and the work of turn
ing it builds muscle and promotes ap-
petite And the taste of those vege-
tables out of ones own garden is
more delicious than that of the same
kind of vegetables raised in any
other garden, and, besides, they are
more nutritious. The fact that these
vegetables may have cost more to
produce than to buy and that their
market value may be less than the
same kind of vegetables grown by
other people does not affect the case
So on with the happy gardening!
Spring is near!

Mr.. Fitzgerald's recent dilemma
was painful. He could neither deny

from his place in the House. and
warned his party against its course.
At the close of the Congress he
must speak. Custom required it. The

WAR AND THE FARMER.

Agricultural statistics 'or 1914 just
issued contain some interesting fig
ures, showing how the war has af-
fected the farmers market. We
quote:
while peace remained during the
spring and summer last year prices
of farm produce were falling steadily;
the outbreak of war checked the fail,
causing an immediate rise, as be.
tween July and August, of about 6
per cent. After a slight relapse In
September, prices continued to rise.
and in December they were approxi.
mately 20 per cent above the stand
ard of 1868. This year the rise
steadily continued, and by the end OF
July the index number, having touch
ed 140 (40 per cent above the stand
ard) in the two preceding months
was 1888. Dairy farmers on the whole
have gained less than those selling
corn and meat"

MAKES PLEA
FOR BIC NAVY
Secretary Daniels Urges Expendi
ture of $1oo,ooo,0oo Each
Year for Five Years.

Washington, Dec. 21.-The Ameri.
can navy should be equal to the
most powerful maintained by any
other nation of the world" not later
than 1925 in the opinion Of the navy
general board headed by Admiral
Dewey.
The annual report of the board,
made public tonight, discloses that
this naval policy was formulated by
the body in July last in answer to the
following propositions propounded by
Secretary Daniels when the admin.
isIration reached it's decision to en-.
ter upon campaign Of national pre-.
paredness '.. 1885,.
"Whas the navy must be in the fu'
| ture in, order to, stand alpon an equal.
ity with the most efficient and most
practically serviceable." ....
The boards conclusions follow,
"The navy of the United States
should ultimately be equal to the
most powerful maintained by any
other nation of the world. 1t should
be gradually increased to this point
by such a rate of development yea;
by year, as may be permitted by the
facilities of the country, but the limit
above defined should be attained not
later than 1926"
AT the same time the board present
ed building program for 1917 in
compliance with the secretary's re-
quest for "a program formulated in
the most definite terms, planned for a
consistent and progressive develop,
ment of this great defensive arm of
the nation"
Details Of the boards reply are not
revealed, as subsequently in October
Of this year, the secretary asked the
board to prepare "a building program
for tn navy that will continue over a
period of five years with an expendi.
ture of about $100.O00;000 each year
for five years on new construction
only" The administra ton plan for
the construction Of sixteen capital
ships within five years is founded on
the boards answer.
