ucts During War

DALLAS, Tex, April 3O-Adopting
Eindenburg tactics-thats sof retreating
before starting the major campaign

the largest food crop in it's history.

grains and other food products. To
aid the harvest fruits and nuts will
receive expert attention.

day by the state board of agriculture,
and subscribed to by the state agricul-
tura1 college and experimental sta
tiOns, was as follows:
Reduce the cotton crop twenty per-
cent
Increase food products twenty per-
cent
Systematic fight against insects

COlOnizing of that portion of the

sion of the Legislature.

NEW YORK, May "Details of a
wild plot to dynamite an important

following the cross examination of
Wolf Hirsch, who was formerly an Of

BOLD BURGLARS ROB
SEVERAL CITY PLACES
Residence, Fleral Headquarters, Coal
Office and Feed Mill Are Visited
Officers Active.

Burglars activities in this city dur
ing the past couple of days have
aroused the interest of the people and
the officers are making strenuous ef-
forts to run in the miscreants.
Between Saturday night and Monday
morning the headquarters of the An
cfior, Hay Grain and Feed Co., was en-
1sfSd, desk and table drawers were
pulled out and papers missed. No
cash was found except two old fash
ioned pennies. Fearing an Indian up
rising, the thieves left the coins with
the warrior heads remain in the cash
drawer of the register. Mr.. Finke
said that he supposed it was some
German spy looking for the docu-
ments showing the location of stored
feed in order to blow it up.
The Central Coal company office
was entered without better or worse
results.
Sunday between IL o'clock a. m. and
noon the residence of David B. Sea-
man was entered through the real
window. The burglars cut the screen
on the door leading on the porch anc
then opened it. They then cut the
window screen, broke the window anf
entered the house, which they rifled
securing about $12 in cash and {
couple of revolvers, besides a few 9th
er small articles.
Sunday night the Twin Falls Flora
company office was entered, evident
ly with a skeleton key, as both from
and back doors were unlocked. Fifteel
dollars in cash register was taken.

The regular Commercial club lunch,
held today in the club room, doomed
with ninety-siX attendants, to 6S for
the week previous. The president
also announced receipt of numerous
voluntary applications for member
ship. The reason for this vitality is
not hard to find. The organization is
really trying to do something utilitar-
ian-and is accomplishing its aim

ing the viands of provided by Herbst
and Rambo, the chairman chosen at
last meeting, Mr. E. ]. Finch, raped
to order and referring to an alleged
shortage of seed grains or vegetables
on some parts of the tract, called
upon Mr.. d. M. Denton.
The latter stated that such shortage
had been reported, especially on the
Salmon tract, explained a tentative
scheme for meeting it, if found neces-
sary; and, as part thereof, read a
memorandum of an agreement where
by the signers would each pledge a
definite sum to underwrite such banks
as might loan to worthy and needy
farmers upon crop mortgage. The
plan met with evident favor and will
undoubtedly be matured if need arises
Mr.. l.. L. Breckenridge, being called
said his thought was tor conservation
that 125,000 to 100000 bushels of grain
had been wasted in breweries anC
distilleries, which he thought should
be stopped by law-at least during the
present war. Apropos to this, MIR. e

WASHINGTON, May THAT war
with other nations than Germany
threatens the United States was indi-
Gated by Senator Chamberlain today
when re-introducing the army bill
upon the advice of the judge advocate
general, who desires an amendment to
the BILL" so as to substitute the word
emergency for the word "war"
wherever it appears. The reason given
was that the bill "now applies only
to Germany and if this country should
be drawn into war with other coun-
tries it would not apply to those.
The amendment was defeated. 1t is
thought that war with the other cen
trail powers is anticipated.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-The state
department withheld comment today
regarding Chancellor Bethmann-Hol-
weg's peace offer. Some here think
that the appointment of Swiss -Ambas-
sador Ritter with President Wilson
is significant, Ritter represents
Germany and knows whether that
country is merely making a politically
strategic move, whether it is issuing
a propaganda intended to Influence
neutrals, or whether it is really desir-
Gus to discuss peace terms seriously
1t is said here that any effort to influ-
ence neutrals by insincere peace talk
will fail.
A dispatch from London today says
that all the munition workers in the
Rhine provinces of Germany have
| joined in general strike, according to
a special agency report from The
Hague received this morning This
may have the effect of making the
| German chancellor offer some basis
for real negotiation. There were no
May Day demonstrations in England; /;
on the contrary 1900 striking clerks in
the Woolrick arsenal and 5000 dock
workers returned to work this morn
ing.
Reports from the western front
indicate that the forces are deadlock
ed and beyond a successful British air
raid nothing of special Importance
was reported.
The most serious question before the
war commissioners conference today
overshadowing the question of sending
soldiers to France, was the German
submarine menace.
"The situation is very serious, said
Lord Eustace PercX, the British wal
; expert today, ''and the Standardization
of shipbuilding in England, America
Canada and Japan with the operation
of all shipyadrs to their fullest capac-
ity is absolutely essential to the sue
cessful prosecution of the war Ger
! many is sinking ships faster than the
= allies are building them L canno
e give the exact figures, but they are
appalling"
