BERLIN TAGEBLATT REVIEWS
 THIRD YEAR OF WAR.
Claims That the Military Strength of
 Central Powers Has Increased.

Berlin, Sunday, July g, via London, July 30--In it's review of the third year of the world war the Tageblatt points out that the armies of Germany and her allies have cnoquered more than half a million square kilometres of entente territory and asserts that the military strength of the central powers. instead of decreasing has in creased, while that of France has visi- bly, diminished. The neWsnaper says the German people has plainly an nounced its req diness for peace and expresses the hope that common sense and a sincere desire for the cessation of hostilities will assert themselves in the ranks of Germany's adversaries. The Tageblatt says:
 The end of the third year of the wal finds the issue in the east and in the west undecided. For the moment in focused upon Flanders and GaIicia.
 Many Instructive Results
 The past year, however, has been fruitful of many instructive results. Above all, it may be asserted that the entente no longer has the disposal of unlimited production and supplies of ammunition as was the case during intuition reinforcement has had a no- .fceable effect on the western front. And, whereas the material resources of our opponents have not increa sed
 
 come visfbly diminished, we still are Gninpaired in our strength and more strongly fortified than ever before
 He who is willing to be guided sole " by the facts and will rot permit himself to be deceived by illusions must admit that the ambition of our goes to crush us is today less justified han at any other period, and because this is so we may be permitted to ex- press the hope that common sense and a sincere desire for peace may finally assert themselves in the ranks of our opponents.
 German People Ready for Peace. The German people through it's ac- eredited representatives has plainly announced to the world at large it's readiness for peace We hope this ex- pression will be appreciated in it's fUf1 importance on the other side
 '7The following offers an approxi- nate picture of the area of occupied territory which is now held by the military forces of the central powers measured in square kilometres: Territory Captured by Teutonic Allies Belgium. 2s,9sO; France, 19,22O; Russia, 280, ,490; Roumania, 100 900; Serbia. ss.s57; Montenegro. 141S0; AL sania. 2O.ooo total, 54S, ,737.
 This total is opposed by 900 square kilometres of land held by the French md the Austro-Hungarian territory in Russian possession measuring 25,250 gquare Kilometres. The latter figure 10 longer holds good. It has been diminished by 50 per cent, and is like y 10 fall away entirely in the near uture"

Washington, March 6.-President
Wilson, having proclaimed to the
world In his second inaugural ad-
dress the principles that will guide
the United States II it becomes In
volved in the world war, is consider
ing what steps he will take to protect
Americans and American ships from
the German submarine menace. The
question Of arming American ships to
repel submarine attacks. nOtwith-
standing the failure of Congress to
confer upon the President this spe-
cific authority, will be discussed and
possibly decided by President Wilson
and his cabinet Attorney General
Gregory has given the President an
offhand opinion that the executive
possesses the authority in his own
right to supply American ships with
defensive armament and that the al
most forgotten statute of 1919, provid-
ing that American merchantmen might
defend themselves from attacks by
any vessels except the warships of a
friendly power, creates no bar to the
provision Of defense against German
submarines.
Cabinet members contend that Ger.
man submarines are now guilty OF pi-
ratical attacks on American ships,
whereas the statute of 1919 contem-
plated that the warships of friendly
powers would observe the rules Of
maritime warfare. The prohibition Of
defense against warships, therefore. is
said not to apply to German sub.
marines.
Upon the decision Of the Cabinet on
the arming Of American merchantmen
will depend to large extent the Presi-
dents conclusion as to the necessity
of calling an extra session of Con-
gress. II the President decides to pro
ceed on his own authority he will be
disposed to postpone summons OF
the new Congress pending his effort
to establish cloture rule in the SEN

MADE $4,000
OUT OF HOGS
On His Western Canadian Farm

It is getting to be long drawn out
story, the way that Western Canadian
farmers have made money. Many Of
them a few years ago, came to the
country with little more than their
few household effects, probably team
Of horses and COW or two. and sum-
cient money to do them for few
months. until they got start. Hun
dreds Of such can be pointed out. who
today have splendid homes, well
equipped farms. the latest machinery
and an automobile. Here is the case
Of A. q. Merriam, formerly Of Devils
Lake, N. D. He didn't leave there be-
cause the land was poor, or farming
not a success, for all who know that
country are aware that 1t Is an excel
lent country. He wanted to expand,
to take advantage of the cheap land
that Western Canada offers. And that
same story has appealed to hundreds
Of others who have had like success
with Mr.. Merriam. But his story, and
he signs 1t, too, is:
Il came to Alberta In the Spring Of
1909 from DEVILS Lake, North Dakota,
locating on my farm near Dalroy.
II arrived with six head of horses
and two head Of cattle and about
$1,5OO. Since then, haye increased
my live stock to seven head Of horses.
four head Of cattle, and about one hun
dred head Of hogs, .four-roomed
house, good barn with all modern i'm
provements, feed grinder, elevator,
chopper, tanning mill, etc. have in
creased my original capital at least
four times more since coming here.
"From the feeding Of hogs during
the last year, had gross return Of
$1,000.
II first started grain farming, but
during the past four years / have made
hogs my speciality, and you may see
by the foregoing statement for 1915
that have not done SO badly.
"Land has increased at least twenty
per cent in value during the past few
years, now selling for from $25 to S35
per acre, with nominal taxes Of about
$27 quarter section yearly.
'"The climate here is better than Da-
kota in that we do not have SO much
dry wind; the winters are similar to
Dakota.
"As for farming in general, the grow
ing and feeding Of live stock is more
sure than the grain farming, If con-
tinued year after year, and If every
farmer follows this he will be ahead
Of the grain growers in the long run.
Taking everything into consideration,
I feel satisfied with my success in
Alberta"
(Sgd.) A. e. MERRIAM.
Dalroy, Alberta, Jan. 18th, 1917.
There will be the greatest demand
for farm labor in Western Canada dur
ing the early spring, and, in fact, all
season until November, and the high
est wages will be paid. There is an
absolute guarantee by the Canadian
Government that those who 60 to
