French Foreign Minister Praises America

The article Of which a translation
appears below was contributed short
time ago to lie Matin of Paris by M.
Louis Rarthou, just appointed minis
ter Of foreign affairs In the French
cabinet, to succeed M. Ribot.
The world has sprung to its feet to
defend the Right. Who con doubt its
triumph?
Until now the French army, whose
heroism has risen superior to all
words Of praise. has borne the brunt
OF the sacred struggle. Now the hour
has struck for the allies Of France to
play their part. Tenacious, patient,
and powerfully organized, England is
accomplishing, with magnificent spirit
a splendid task.
And now, In her turn. America
comes to the fore President Wilson
has stated her object and the role
which she Is to play. From these she

Thus we see how President Wilson s
slogan has been heard, understood and
followed from one end of the United
States to the other. The Americans
have entered the struggle with a full
consciousness of its significance Re
solved upon any sacrifice, they viii
not desert the holy cause which they
have espoused with a courage from
which the best Of results may be ex

doing. and why they are doing it. This
mature and sure strength will trans
form the war without changing any
thing in its essential aims which are
bound up with the destinies of human

GOVERNMENT MAY
RAISE WHEAT TEST

CAMBRIDGE CITY, Ind, Nov. g.
According to a letter received Monday
from the secretary of the Indiana
Grain Dealers by j. S. Hazelrigg, the
president, Dr.. Duvall of Washington,
D. c., has intimated that the moisture
test for wheat will be put up to IA
percent, a great thing for the shippers
and farmers of Indiana, and of the ut
most importance to the Wayne county
farmers.
Mr.. Hazelrigg and c. O. Hurst said
that Wayne county had demonstrated
that although the wheat had gone SO
to 60 pounds. the grade was only No
3 wheat, showing that 1t had been i'm
possible to meet the government test
OF IS Another important matter was
received from the Indianapolis conven-
ton of grain dealers. namely that the
government by fixing the minimum
price Of hogs at 151a cents meant con
servation of corn.
Wayne county farmers are advised
to wait until the corn has been dried
by nature in the shock The govern
ment price for corn is $1.55. AS the
best way to dry wheat is in the chaff,
SO the best way to dry corn is in the
shock as other methods meant a loss
of vitality. These instructions have
been given out to Wayne county farm
ers
H. T. Capler, farmer north Of town,
has turned his feeding hogs into ten
acres Of corn that were blown down.
