means is being utilized to eradicate the pest in the United States. Its spread so far has been confined to comparatively isolated areas.
 Material development of native agricultural resources, the report says, is expected to follow complete or ganization of the Departments exten- sion service. Equipped with an ap- propriation of $4,34S,400, the service will soon be able to place one demon stration agent-possibly tWo-in near ly every agricultural county in the country, and a woman in each large city to give advice regarding the pro- duction conservation and utilization of food products. Agents numbering 5000 are now performing extension work among the nations farmers in the urban communities.
 "These agents" declares Secretary Houston, mot only are performing the normal and emergency demonstration and educational work, but they are also assisting other branches of the government in special directions, such as the Treasury Department in its Liberty Loan campaigns, and the Food Administration in it's food conserva- tion activities"
 The report, outlines in detail the varied activities and line of effort of the Department during the year, par tlcularly the tremendous expansion eHected at the outset of the war.

GERMAN GOD AND
 MANKIND'S DEVIL

(By William H. P. Faunce, Presi- dent Brown University.)
 I am lover of peace and a hater of all war. As an officer of the League to Enforce Peace, I am working steadily to secure an international court and bring about a true parlia- ment of man. agree with the dying utterance of Edith Cavell, Patriotism is not enough" Patriotism that is mere provincialism, that has no world horizon, is not enough for the pres ent crisis of the world.
 But just because we have today a world horizon we must fight the com mon foe of nearly all mankind, the nation whose supreme ambition is to exalt itself by trampling others into dust and blood. Our professions of human brotherhood are vain pretense if we can stand still and make money while. Belgium is ravished, Serbia crushed, Louvain burned, Armenia flayed alive, the Luistania torpedoed, and the most sacred treaty made scrap op paper. Our international ism is utterly insincere if we can sit idle on the bleachers while 20 na- tions before our eyes have descended into the awful arena. Our talk about the federation of the world has no meaning if we fail to resist with every economic and military resource the nation that wants world power or downfall"
 Our opinion of Germany should not be based on anything her enemies have said. We may discount such ut ferance as prejudiced. Our opinion is based only on what she herself has said, Beginning with the lamentable proclamation of 93 "intellectuals'' and ending with the latest-not the last treachery of her ambassador in Wash ington. She is self-explained and self-condemned. Der alte Gott," with dripping sword, stamped on German coins is-why not say it? is merely our devil.
 Freedom can not survive in Ameri- ca if it fails in France and Russia, in England and Italy. We will fight the natural foe of liberty" either on the fields of France or on the shores of America. We must defend either Paris or New York To finch from plain duty now is to be plunged in terror later on. We are face to face WlIn all astonishing Ol twentieth century science with Baby 1onian and Assyrian cruelty. We, whose fathersIg founded a state sub ject to "certain inalienable rights" of humanity, are facing state which sincerely believes nothing is right save It's own will and nothing wrong which is done in it's service.
 If German militarism oonquers, America must adopt militarism as it's own for the next hundred years. If Germany is made to see that mili- tarism does not work, that it's theory of progress has utterly broken down, then democrac- will be made safe even in Berlin. As the capture of Cornwallis was victory for English liberty, the utter defeat of German armies will mean the liberation of the German soul. All true nte1na- tionalists may we'll enlist in such a cause. In no other struggle known to history has the issue been so plain or the summons to all lovers of freedom so1 clear.

"In considering the whole meat situation it should be kept in mind that there is a close relationship be- tween the production of live stock and the supply Of feedstuffs and that for more than year past there has been relative shortage of grains and of forage. The large production of these necessaries during the present crop season should conduce to more satis- factory conditions for the producers of live stock and should, other things being equal, tend to bring about an increase.
 But with the destruction of live stock in Europe and the great de- mands from there for meat and fats with consequent greatly increased ex- ports from this country, it is clear that the supply will not be adequate for the domestic needs and for those of the nations with which we are as sociated in the war.
 | ''The mere statement that the pop ulation has steadily increased in this country-the gain in the 10 years from 1908 to 1917 being 13,o0o, ,000- with an absolute decrease in the live ! stock for the same period, would suf- fciently emphasize the seriousness of the situation if conditions were nor nal and the demand for meats and fats were not so urgent"
