Eiahtina the Insesss.

One hundred million dollars are lost
to the United States every year due to
the ravagcs of insects In crops. Half
these insects were imported. according
to the Popular Scicnce Monthly.
Though Insecticides are useful. they
are not elective under all conditions,
Tue most satisfactory results have
been obtained by introducing other In

GERMANY VERY
SHORT Of MEN
Captured Officers Admit
Part of Glass of 1919 Now
Serving in Trenches.

British Headquarters in France and
Belgium. Aug. Germany is very
short Of man power. according to ad-
missions made by German officers
captured in the allied drive in Elan
ders. They have been free in discus
sing the military and political situa-
ton as 1t affects the fatherland.
These officers admit that the whole
class of 1918 next years classl is al
ready in the field, and that parts Of
the 1919 class are also in service.
though they claim the 1919 boys are
serving merely as volunteers and
that no attempt has been made TO
conscript the class
This is the first time any German
officer has admitted that any men Of
the 1919 class were on the battle
front
Fear They May Lose War.
The whole trend Of the statements
made by these captive officers is that
they are beginning TO fear they may
lose the war More depressing than
anything else is the fear that there
may be another winter campaign.
Peace without annexation OF iudem-
mites is endorsed by all the officers
who have discussed the question. but
most Of them have indicated that
they favor the annexation Of eastern
Belgium and part OF the coast Of
Flanders, II such a thing possibly
could be done
The men are highly intelligent An
officer who has made a study Of the
economic matters said the war al
ready was costing the fatherland ten
billion marks annually in interest
charges. He appeared TO be deeply
impressed by the gravity Of the
situation.
They still Uphold Germany.
Almost without exception the Ger
man officers still maintain that Ger
many is innocent OF causing the war
and say that there is all manner Of
documentary evidence to prove it"
Discussing the present battle, the
German officers say that the British
gas shell commandments on the two
nights preceding the opening Of the
infantry charge was most effective
heavily. The Guard Fusiliers We're
gassed Sunday and Monday night
Large numbers were overcome
Effects OF Gas Disastrous.
A German division which was being
held in support on the back line
crossing the Npres-Memin road also
suffered severely So disastrous was
the effect of the gas at this point that
at least one battalion which was be
ing rushed TO the relief Of the men
in the front lines never reached its
objective
It is the irony Of fate that it was
in this section of the front that the {
Germans early in the war for the
first time IN history inaugurated the .
use Of gas shells.-OBy A. P.)

The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1917-04-18
THE U-BOAT MENACE IN AMERICAN
WATERS,

The discovery of German submarine
on the North American side of the At
lantic ocean undoubtedly means that
Germany was deliberately lying when the
statement was made that the Berlin gov
eminent did not intend TO declare war
on the United States. The Berlin gov
eminent was merely playing for time in
which to get prepared for an active cam
paign against the United States before
making the perfunctory declaration. Ger
many had no effective weapons ready
with which to make one of those sharp
thrusts for which that military autoc-
racy has become famous or, perhaps bet
ter stated, the United States was so far
removed from the immediate range Of
those available weapons that the Z Rim
government delayed the appearance Of
war-like attitude until those weapons
could be brought nearer the objective.
To help along the deception, the word
was allowed to go forth that Germany
did not intend to declare war on the
United States despite the belligerent at
titude of the latter government. Mean
while the German admiralty was sending
U-boats across the Atlantic or drawing
them from some convenient base in a
friendly port and placing them in waters
contiguous to the great American sea
ports. The U-boat seen by the U. S. de-
stroyer Smith on Tuesday morning. April
IL, was undoubtedly one of a consider
able feet of such vessels ordered to at |
tempt virtual blockade of the Atlantic |
coast; and the shot which the U-boat |
fired at the Smith was, in fact, Ger
manys formal declaration OF war against |
the United States. Nevertheless, the T.
boats will find that the American naval
authorities were not deluded by the pa
cific little assertion that was allowed to
seep out of Germany and that the At
lsutic coast line is as well defended as
it was possible to make it in the time
following the act of Congress in declar
ing state of war. Moreover, those eff
forts are being continued at top speed.
The United States should be able to pro-
tect its shipping from the submarines
that Germany can spare from the work
across the ocean.
