AN INTERNATIONAL WEAKNESS
How Lincoln Disposed of the Marquis
of Harrington. -
(Brooklyn standardization

(BroOklyn Standard-UniOn.)
According to a correspondent in
Paris, a newspaper there announced
that Sir Whitman had been appoint
ed governor of New York and there
was rumor that Lord Hughes was
to be the new American ambassador
to France This seems rather comic
to us, but doubtless no funnier than
our mistakes about European titles
and officials seem to the Europeans.
A newspaper in this city used to
refer continually to Sir Edward Grey
as Lord Grey although there was
at that time a Lord Grey who had
been governor general Of Canada.
Curiously enough, the foreign sec
rotary has lately become Viscount
Grey, but he is still often named as
Sir Edward Grey in newspapers here
When Lady Henry Somerset came
to this country it was a 1O-to-1 shot
she would be introduced wrongly
when about to speak at a meeting
Lady Somerset was one common
form, and Lady Isabel Somerset"
was a favorite Either of these titles
would denote something entirely diff
erent from her actual rank
When a particularly dense offshoot
Harrington, came to this country dur
ing the civil war and travelled through
the northern states wearing a seces-
sion badge, because somebody told
him it was the proper thing, you
know, there was a great anxiety lest
he might cause some international
complication when he called upon
President Lincoln. Mr.. Lincoln grave
1y addressed the young man as MIR.
Darlington" all through the interview,
and thus effectively made it evident
that he had no standing AS an inter-
national parsonage at all.
1t is not particularly surprising a
Frenchman should find it puzzling
when to translate monsieur as "sir''
and when as "minter." The same
difficulty is experienced here. Prob
ably European ignorance of our So
ciety and politics is equalled by our
ignorance of theirs.

speakers at the conference on
Real Preparedness today in Schiller
hall said the biggest danger of the
United States is not outside, but in
side this country. They said the mU-
milton makers and money hogs of the
United States are exactly like the
munitions makers and money hogs Of
England and Germany. They said
the land hogs of the United States,
especially the big railroads, are just
as bad as the land hogs of Germany
and England.
Benjamin c. Marsh, secretary Of
the committee, said the banks, rail-
roads and munitions interests of the
United States are started on cam
paign and have lined up the big news
papers of the country to help push
their game. And the game is to get
more concession and privileges, even
if it leads to war.
''The campaign of the prostituted
press to drive us to war with Mex
leo, Japan and Germany has failed, %
said Marsh. Eve are in a mood not
to further the designs Of Hearst, Geo.
w. Perkins, John Hays Hammond
and others on Mexico. What we want
is a chance for every man to get
food, clothes and a home on fair
terms.
"Those who own this country
ought to do the fighting for it. Look
at the facts. In Chicago the sites of
the properties in the loop district'are
worth nearly one-seventh of the to-
tai selling price of the land of the
city. In New York city 13 families
own about one-twentieth Of the total
assessed value of land; 500 families
own one-siXth.

raise their rates and resisting an

KILLING OF WINTER WHEAT
BY the Cutworms and the Winter
Weather-Worms Again Doing
Damage to Wheat.

Reports are already coming to
the Experiment Station from sever
al sections of the State that the ar
my cutworm which caused serious
loss of winter wheat last year is
again doing damage. Reports OF
serious winter-killing of wheat are
also coming to us. Farmers are
urged, therefore, to examine their
winter wheat fields at once to see if
the crop has been killed out or is
being destroyed.
How 60 Look for Cutworms.
Look very carefully in the grain
fields for plants that have been eat
en- by worms and search for the
small worms from half inch to an
inch in length with the usual cut
worm appearance. They are more
easily found in the late afternoon.
How to Look for Winter-Killing.
Plants that have died from injury
lie shriveled and dead on the
ground and may be easily pulled
up as the roots are dead and broken.
Sometimes field may show little
evidence of life and the plants take
on a green color for short time
early in the spring and then die
down in places so that the field has
a spotted appearance. Don't CON
clude that the crop has killed out
until growth is fairly started in the
vicinity as all winter wheat plants
look withered and dead early in the
spring.
What to Do for CltWOrmS.
To meet the cutWorm difficulty
and keep the loss from this cause
at a minimum, the farmers Should
start at once to carefully watcl
their fields and keep this up till TIL,
danger from the worms is passed
