MUNITIONS
tReoubIican A. p. Leased wirel

WASHINGTON. March 29.-Consid- eration of the army increase ,bill, the first of the big national defense measures, began in the senate today, with republicans joining the demo- crats in expressing the hope that it might be disposed of as quickly as possible.
 Senator Chamberlain chairman of the military committee. introduced the measure which is substitute for the Hay bill passed by the house, and made a lengthly address explaining its provisions It will be called up to- morrow for reading by sections and will be kept constantly before the senate until passed.
 So far there has been no evidence of. any serious opposition to the bill as whole, though changes in cer tain features will be advocated. Sem ator Borah gave notice that he would fight the National Guard provisions. He does not believe the national guard should be used as a basis for a reserve force and favors instead the provision for creation and the training of a volunteer force under supervision of federal army officers
 The chief aim of the senate sub stitute is to increase the peace strength of the regular standing army to 175,00O men. It aso provides for a federal volunteer force of 241, 900 men and the National Guard ol 2s0,000 which would be placed under federal control and participated ir federal appropriations.
 Criticism of the aviation equipmen, of the army was freely made during today's session and the recent exper. fence of the aviators in Mexico wer, cited as illustrations of the ineffi ciency of the equipment.
 Senator Chamberlain declared tha congress largely was responsible fo this condition because it's parsimon ious policy in the face of insistenc, by dependent heads for large appro priations.

Renting Planter
For Small Rent
Farmers Are Taking Advantage of
Securing Use of Potato
Planter.
Now is Time to Think of Farm Ma
chinery; Season is Nearly
Here.

Most farmers think, and those that
do, are thinking seriously right now
about their farm machinery for the
coming season. The season is almost
here and we are waiting for you to
come in. Our stock of everything
you'll need is most complete.
Drills, planters, seeders, plows,
harrows, discs, etc., etc., are among
the things we think of while writing
this news. Come in and tell us
what's on your mind
We visited the farmers meeting at
Traftons farm the past week and
some of the boys are going to bar
gain to rent a potato planter from
us. They'll get it together and pass
it around from one farm to the other
until they are through with it. We
are going to charge about one dollar
an acre or something like that. We
are doing this so that the farmers
may become used to this modern
piece of machinery. Come in and
learn all about it.

The amount left over after all ex-
