WHEN THREsHERS ARE SAFE

Have you noticed the fact that there has not been
explosion of threshng machine in Latah county thus
far this season? Some attribute this the lack of
smut in the grain Others, and they in large
majority, attribute it to the lack of w WIS in the
harvest fields.
Whatever the of this improved condition. it is
significant that the freedom from threshng machine
explosions and the detention of the I. w. WIS where
they do no HARM is coincidence that is making
a deep impression the minds of the of La

SCIENCE OF WAR is CHANGED
Developments of the Past Three Years
Have Rendered Obsolete Most of
the Old Methods.

During the last three years the sci
ence of war has undergone radical
changes, rendering obsolete much
which past effort and study had es-
tablished as standard. H. H. Wind
sor writes in Popular Mechanics Cav
airy has largely given way to infantry,
which now moves farther and faster
in motor cars than was ever possible
with animals. Machine guns have
changed with conditions of infantry
attacks. Heavy artillery at long range
now accomplishes much of what for
merly was assigned to an infantry
charge. The difficult and always peril
Gus work of the field spy and scout
has been left behind by the airman,
who goes forth openly and noisily,
sweeping over enemy lines at a mile
a minute. On sea, it is no longer the
ship which can shoot the farthest, or
the. fast cruiser which cannot be over
taken, that sinks the most enemy ships,
but the submarine whose underwater
missiles are often unseen and never
heard.
Trench warfare as practiced today
is an evolution of the old earthwork
idea, but so changed and expanded as
to have little resemblance. 1t was a
German invention, worked out to in
clude. streets and alleys with main
arteries of communication from the
rear and complete underground habi-
tations capable of housing men by
These underground rooms
are not only one but often two stories
deep, the lower level being reached by
concealed trapdoors. In the Japanese
Russian war the Japanese made use of
zigzag open trenches as a means Of
to a fortress, but to nothing
like the extent employed now.

"She wondered if he could possibly
be feeling i'll. Perhaps, she thought,
he had tried too many of the vege-
tables when he was picking them out.
But before the guests had left she
knew what he had been thinking Of.
He had been thinking of new, polite
speeches to suit the day.
"And as all the woodchucks and
their friends were leaving, Mr.. Wood
chuck squealed:
"Tt hasn't been horrid, it hasn't

HOW MUTT SAVED HIM


LONDON-The Canadians called him
Mutt He was all dog.
He used to run back and forth across
No-Man's Land, neutral with the
widest privileges.
One day the Canadians went over the
top in raid, and Maple Leafer fell
wounded. 1
His friends wanted to face certain
death to bring him in, but officers held
them back.
Then Mutt came staggering down
the trench. A Tommy seized him and
held him while an officer scrubbed
this note:
xviii you allow us to bring in our
wounded man?"
Mutt was showed over the top with
the note tied to his neck. He saunter-
ed over to the Boche lines. Soon he
came back with the reply:
'sWill give you five minutes"
In four minutes stretcher, bearers
brought back their man in safety.
Then both sides returned to bust
ness.

MORE sUBTERRANEAN DIPLOMACY

1t is too to pass judgment the expose of the
crooked diplomacy involving Argentina Sweden and
Germany. On its face it has a nasty look and may
lead still greater international entanglemens

to assume that there will be of this under
