WEATHER REPORT
FEBRUARY 1917

February weather report played IN
fair form for the farmers of st.
Mary Parish, thus laying the founda-
ton for good crop prospects during
1917. The cold spells of January,
when the thermometer ranged below
freezing point for several days,
came to an end on the first two
days of the shortest month in the
year, and after that warm days were
the rule, the exceptions having
been on the 9th, 14th and 23rd,
when the cool spells did only slight
damage in retarding fairly early
start of vegetation.
The total precipitation for the
month was 500 inches, the amount
being well distributed over the
month in small showers, except on
the 7th, when two inches fell on
that date. Rain fell on 9 days in
the month, while there were only 5
entirely clear days. Cloudy wealth
er, when warm, is not considered
bad for growing crops. $40
It is reported all seed cane is in
first class shape, while many
farmers have already begun their
early corn planting. A ride through
the rural districts show many turnip
patches, cabbage plots and early
potatoes, from which the wise
farmer will secure his spring veget-
ables. If the present outlook is an
indication, all kinds Of vegetables
will be cheap and plentiful this
year.
It is noticed that pastures are
again beginning to look. green,
which is great relief to the cattle of
this section, where little feed, other
than pasturage, is given. Within
another two weeks the grass should
be well up.
The first class condition Of the
seed cane at this time indicate that
large acreage of cane viii again
be planted.

be Of interest to those who are inter-

Playing Shylock
Owners of Big Incomes Who Object
to Money Consumption

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Under the caption 'May Conscript
Wealth" significant remark made by Secre-
tary OF the Treasury McAdoo is reported.
when the government is conscripting its
manhood, is there any reason why it should
be more tender with its dollars? If neces-
sary the government will conscript the money
necessary to carry on this war;
When our ablest and best men are re-
quired to offer up their lives for the cause
dear to us all, it is crying shame that those
who have money should be permitted TO be
patriots at 4 per cent. Ali personal net in
, comes above six thousand year should be
conscrpted. In times like these why should
any one be allowed to consume more than
that would purchase?
One of the most disheartening spectacles
is to see patriots" living on the fat of the
land (snd living on that fast, who sport
bond buyers buttons and pride themselves
on the strength of having played the Shylock
TO the dearly loved but needy Antonio
America.
There is untold wealth in the country IN
the hands of a comparatively few, and there
are poverty and want and starvation, and 1t
seems as unreasonable to place an unequal
burden upon the latter class while the former
lives in luxury and ease as it would be to
place men with weak hearts, or poor lungs,
or other physical weaknesses in the hrst line
trenches while strong men amused them
selves behind the lines"
Not only should money be conscripted. but
also the basic industries by which the people
are so bitterly exploited, and out OF which
most of the money comes TO those who never
did because they never had to. stroke
of productive work to earn it.
Let the government conscript money, and
the basic industries and the entire nation to
man barring, Of course, the few powerful
expoters shorn of their power will get be
hind the government

and are still graphing with problems of
which few realize the completely. But
though the people are willing to suffer the
hsrdships attendant upon the war, they are
not willing TO suffer those attendant upon the
exploitation of their own and the country's
needs for the enrichment OF a few who pro.
fess patriotism they do not feel.

How Many Bonds Have You Sold ?

If you have bought your own bond land
only if you have), how many other Ameri-
cans have you persuaded to take bond?
Selling the Second Liberty Loan is the
business of the two million volunteers who
are giving special time and energy to
the task. 1t is also the business of each
of US. Every employer has large oppor-
tunity and corresponding dIty to per-
form. He should see to it that his cor
poration or firm sets the example by sub
scribing to the limit of its ability. He
should then see to it that his employees are
reminded of the loan and given every en-
enlargement, facility and aid, credit as
we'll as convenience, to take just as much
of the loan as possible. This means en-
ployers Of many workers and employers of
a few or of one worker.
Do your own duty first, promptly. Only
four and half days are left. Then help as
many others to do their duty as you can.
Sell your countrys bonds as well as
buy them.

Russian Names

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Why use the German instead OF the
English phonetic system in transcrlping nus
sian words and names? One of the latest
additions to our war vocabulary, "Jugoslavia'
illustrates rather well the absurd ct-
fects resulting from that curious custom
The majority of people pronounce the first
SYLLABLE as they would the word jug The
initial ~" however, is not an English -,
hut a German ~" which sounds like the
initial "y" in "you"; the "u" is the German
"u." which sounds like double 90" Why not
spell it Yougoslsvia and be done with it?
The same mistake in the use of the Ger
man "w," which sounds like "v," causes, for
example, some people to call certain plan
list "Paderoosky." instead of "Paderevsky."
We made good beginning when we print
ed "Moon" Island, instead of "Mun," as the
Germans call it. But why write "Oesel"
when the Russians call it "Aysel'?
And by the way, timid folks who never
dare to mention Kerensky or the Bolsheviks
should know that the Prime Ministers name
is pronounced "Kayrensky,' with the accent
on the second syllable. The accent in Dol
shevik" is on the last syllable.

Those Who Bear the Star"

In the older journals, familiar to van
ished generation, the dead Of each year
were marked by star and beneath the
lists were described in the eloquent phrase
Those who bear the STAR And now our
first casualty list has come to US, bringing
Is roster Of names marked by the star
he names Of those who made the FIRST
acrifce.
BY Concord Bridge and on Lexington
Common there are raised monuments
10 those who died first in the struggle
which gave us liberty. Nearly century
and a half have passed since that initial
,acrifce Of Americans to the cause OF
-uman liberty, but each successive decade
,as brought greater appreciation and
rreater sense of gratitude for this gift,
which was the beginning of our national
existence.
The men who died on the Antilles are
the successors Of those who fought at Con-
cord and Lexington. Against a darker
tyranny. in the presence Of a foe a thou
sand times more brutal and more cruel,
.hev have made their stand, offered their
lives, that what began at Concord may
not perish, but endure.
Beside the lists of battles like the
Marine and Verdun the casualty list Of the
Antilles is mercifully brief. Unhapplly,
VIC must expect larger hereafter. Yet to
those who give their lives first there is due
z certain special tribute.
At no distant date we may expect to see
American soldiers on the firing line IN
France. They will not forget their COM
rades murdered on the high seas; they
will not fight less determinedly because of
the slaughter Of the Antilles. Nor should
VIC others, at home, fail to find In this In
cident new reason for resolution. The
German submarines which murdered our
women and children on the Lusitania are
continuing their murder, with our soldiers
as their victims
Our answer will come. Meantime, we
should remember always that 1t is just
this sort of murder that best expresses the
meaning Of Germany in the world to-day.
This is the way the German fights; and
since this is true there can be no peace
which does not betray our dead until the
German peril is abolished-until victory
on the field has permanently banished this
German method from the earth

Curiosities of Translation

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The interesting editorial on retrans-
lations in to-day's Tribune recalls to one
reader most remarkable work which few
Americans know, the French version Of Car
lyle's French Revolution" by Jules Roche.
Who would guess that "vermoulu" could
replace grounded" in rendering "Charle-
magne sleeps at Salzburg with truncheon
grounded? But so we find it; and "sourires
forces" for "wreathed smiles" plus enrsge"
ior "madder" (the dye), tears" (the verb
mistaken for a noun with different pronun-
citation; "derviches flants" for spinning
dervishes" There does not seem TO be much
obscurity about Carlyle's while computed
time runs (Which sounds like an echo of
Macbeth's "to the last syllable of recorded
time"), but the French translation is pendant
quill est calcule lie temps passe."
There are so many ridiculous bunders in
this work that NJ. Embarrss de Choix meets
you constantly. Perhaps the following from
the first chapter of the third volume will
suffice. Carlyle wrote about men who love
law. and will have even an explosion explode
"as far possible according to rule" which
Jules Roche rendered "aussi eloignee que
possible suivant la regle."

twice as many and that the defences
had proved so miraculous that the raiding
force had been utterly annihilated. That
would have been an amazing achievement
yet in point of cost the destruction OF sixty
airplanes would scarcely equal single
Zeppelin. ard the Germans have now sacri-

II will be seen. then, that in point OF eX-
rense they can much better afford TO use
airplanes. provided they can turn them
out fast enough and find enough pilots to
man them. Moreover, sixty modern air
planes could carry much greater num-
ber Of bombs than Zeppelin, and with rea-
sonable luck do much more damage in a
short time. II is probable, then. that the
airship will be restricted in future to the
more modest function of scout. and that be-

The End Of the Zeppelin

When half of the squadron engaged in
the latest aerial attack on England was
either captured or destroyed in France
and only one Of the eight ships got back to
Germany unchanged, the Zeppelin, as an
instrument of punishment, was decisively
disposed of. A better type may possibly
I've developed in due time, but it is mani
iost by now that the type in use at present
IS failure, even if the raid of Friday
night was attended with peculiar success"
as the official statement of Berlin pro-
claims and as, indeed the London reports
virtually admit. In word, he Zeppelin
does not pay.
Apparently, much anger has been
aroused in England by the extraordinary
immunity enjoyed by the airships in their
cruise over London. The success of the de-
fcnsive measures used on former occasions
mad convinced the public that airships were
10 longer 10 be feared. that after the loss
cf half a dozen Zeppelins in more or less
abortive attacks the Germans would never
venture to use them again for this purpose.
II
leaks of the event as "a shameful episode
IN the annals of British aerial defence" is
understandable, but not altogether reason
able On cloudy night II is often impos-
sible TO see Zeppelin flying at a great
height, and the ear would be useless guide
the motors were successfully silenced. as
il is said they were on this occasion. The
sceming failure of English land defences is
therefore easily accounted for. Whether
the airplanes that went up in pursuit
found the invaders or had anything to do
With their ultimate fate il is difficult at
resent TO determine. The Germans them
selves attribute the erratic course they took
TO the accident of dense fog, in which they
est their bearings. However that may be,
70 is certain that all the ships brought
own were attacked successfully in broad
wight, the first victim falling between
20 and z o'clock in the morning.
There is no doubt that in future the Ger
mans will be obliged to depend on airplanes
for raids of this kind. The wonder is that
they returned TO the Zeppelins at all. for
lie recent series Of raids, which were by
10 means so formidable as they might have
been, showed the superiority of the air
plane in several important respects. Ac-
-ording TO some estimates, there were not
more than thirty engaged in any of these
stacks, but let US suppose that there were
