LEWIS PROPOSES
MEDIATION IN WAR
INTRODUCES RESOLUTION RE-
QUEsTING PRESIDENT TO
TAKE SUCH ACTION.
Resolution Recites That 1t 10 Suggest
ed as Expression OF Desire for
World Peace and Not FaVorit-
ism for Any Of Belligerents.

Washington.-A resolution request
ing the president, unless incompatible
with the public interest, to suggest to
warning nations Of Europe that the
United States undertake mediation
was introduced into the senate on
Thursday by Senator Lewis Of Illinois
to lie on the table for discussion later.
The resolution would authorize the
president to propose that the bellig-
erents declare a truce and that each
of them select neutral country as
its representative on board of arbi-
tration thus created; each selected
neutral would name one member of
the board over which the president or
his representative would preside as
referee. Under the plan each belliger-
ent would present its demands or
claims to the board. which would be
authorized to arrive at an equitable
adjustment.
The resolution recites that 1t is sug-
gested as an expression of the desire
for world peace and not Of fayoritism
for any OF the belligerents.
President Wilson told callers Thurs
day that the Intervention Of a neutral
In behalf of peace In Europe could
rest only on mutual understanding
by the beIligerents that terms TO be
arranged are to conserve the interests
Of all and the world at large, rather
than those of particular nation or
group OF nations among the warning
powers.

WORLD ALLIANCE
ADDRESS BEFORE PEACE LEAGUE
REGARDED AS FEELER FOR
PEACE ACROSS OCEAN.
Declares United States 10 Ready to
Join In Any Feasible Association
OF Powers to Preserve the
Peace Of the World.

Washlngton.-Pres Wilson de-
clared here Saturday night before the
League to Enforce Peace that the
United States was ready 10 join in
any league association Of nations to
preserve the peace of the world
against political ambition and sell
fish hostility" and in service Of "a
common order, common justice and
a common peace" He expressed the
hope that the terms of peace which
end the present war would include
such an arrangement.
Outlining suggestions for peace.
which the president said he hoped tho
United States would make. II it has
opportunity to do so, he included pro-
vision for absolute freedom of the
seas, a contention which has been the
keystone of all the diplomatic dis
cussions with Germany and Great
Britain, and virtual guarantees of ter
ritorial integrity and political indie
pendence.
Officials interpreted the presidents
address as preliminary feeler for
peace in Europe. He outlined the con-
ditions on which the United States
would move If it made formal media
tory OFFER with the idea, 1t was under
stood. of learning how such .sugges-
lions would be received abroad.
Il am sure" said the president,
that the people of the United States
would wish their government to move
along these lines:
First, such settlement with re-
gard to their own immediate interests
as the belligerents may agree upon.
We have nothing material of any kind
to ask for ourselves and are quite
aware that we are In no sense or de.
gree parties to the present quarrel.
Our interests are In peace and future
guarantees.
Second, universal association OF
the nations to nlaintain the invioiate
security of the highway of the seas
for common and unhindered use OF all
the nations of the world, and to pre-
vent any war begun either contrary
to treaty covenants or without warn
ing and full submission of the causes
to the opinion of the world-a virtual
guarantee OF territorial integrity and
political independence"
The fundamentals of a lasting
peace President Wilson said he be.
lieved were:
First. that every people has right
to choose the sovereignty under which
they shall live. Like other nations,
the president said, I'VE have our
selves. no doubt, once and again OF
Tended against that principle wher
for little while controlled by selfish
passion, as our franker historians
have been honorable enough to admit;
but it has become more and more oul
rule OF life and action.
Second. that the small states o.
the world have right to enjoy the
same respect for their sovereignty
and for their territorial integrity thai
great and powerful nations expect anC
insist upon.
And third. that the world has 9
right TO be free from every disturb
ance Of its peace that has its origin
in aggression and disregard OF ths
rights Of people and nations"

KILL OFF THISTLEs
Plant Abounds Throughout Gen.
trail West States.
OF Late Years Weed Has Been In
ereasinaIy Troublesome In Grain
Growing MISUNDERSTANDING
Soil Unfit for Farming.

(From the United States Department OF
Agriculture.)
In the states north of the Ohio
river, probably no plant bears such
bad reputation as the so-called Canada
thistle. This marvelously prickly
plant abounds in grain fields, pastures,
and meadows throughout the central
west, and Is common In the northeast
ern states. It is found in parts Of
West Virginia, Kentucky, and Mis-
souri,, and of late years has been In
creasingIy troublesome in the grain
growing sections Of the Northwest.
Canada thistle, or simply thistle"
has been condemned in the laws of %
states, and at least 100 local commu-
mites. Certainly NO plant liz more
generally and heartily disliked, unless
1t be the sand bur OF the southern
coastal plain.
The unpopularity of Canada thistle
is due largely to its unsightly appear
ance and exceedingly spiny leaves, and
to its persistent resistance to at
tempts at eradication. Under ordi-
nary cropping systems and with req
sonalle care, the thistle is at worst
disagreeable nuisance. Generally
speaking, it does not injure the quail
ity or quantity Of farm products, ex-
cepting hay, as much as do quack-
grass, wild onion, or wild mustard;
nor il it as destructive to the grass
in pastures and meadows as are a
number Of almost insignificant little
weeds whose very existence is often
unsupported. When left to itself, how
ever, the thistle spreads rapidly, un-
til in few years it win more or less
completely occupy the land. rendering

It unfit for farming purposes. The soil
upon which Canada thistles flourish is
apt to be Of good natural fertility,
and It usually pays to reclaim thistle
infested fields.
The cause of the remarkable vital
Ity Of Canada thistle and the point
that distinguishes it from other prick
~ plants that are commonly mistaken
for it, il the long, cordlike, perennial
root. This root penetrates the soil
at q depth Of eight to fifteen inches,
or more, and gives rise at frequent in
tervals to leafy shoots. Thus Il will
often be found that an entire patch of
thistles is attached to one root, and
Is In reality but one plant. The root
is exceedingly hardy, and can live over
winter or through 3 prolonged drought
In . dormant condition. Pieces that
are broken on by . plow or cultivator
and carried TO other places will await
warm, moist period. and then begin
to send out leafy shoots, thus estab-
fishing new patch. If the leafy
stems are cut down, others will be

process may be repeated from two to
eight times before the root becomes
exhausted. In most localities the
Canada thistle does not produce many
good seeds, as the male and female
flowers are on separate plants, and
not all OF the female flowers produce
viable seeds. Nevertheless. the seeds

The point that must be kept IN

thisties is that 1t is the roots, rather

Simply cutting OF the tops feu

the root must eventually suffocate
