The outstanding fact in the talks be-

the need Of food and money. From
baifour and viviani down thru the en-
tire list Of accredited envoys the cry
il, Food, food, give us food" Their
farms have been depleted Of the man
upon whom the nations rsstsd in times
Of peace. Their places cannot be taken
by recruits; farmers are not made
with ease and rapidity that soldiers
are. These nations have learned to
their sorrow that to permit the youth
OF the farms to leave for the battle
field means that the army and the ma
tion must suffer for food to eat.
The United States must consider
this fact and consider II now. It must
recruit its farm army to war strength
first and then its soldiers, II the war
is to be Of the gigantic effect on this
country that it has been on the other
nations now embroiled. The youth Of
the land must realize that to serve in
the army Of agriculture means As
much for the nation as to serve in the
gun-bearing branch. Boy Scouts, Sum-
day school pupils, boys, and even
girls unattached to these organixa-
tions can serve their country better
by forming garden armies" and going
about their respective towns and vii
lages in squads and helping older folk
in the care and upkeep of their htch-

this work; there is scarce an avenue
Of endeavor that will do more to re-
lieve want and help the nation at the

With the high range covered by
several feet of snow it doesn't seem
to make much difference how many
sheep and cattle are assigned to the
forest reserves. And the grass is ex-
ceedingly slow to start on the foothills
range, SO that feeding is perforce car
ried much later than usual. There has
been plenty Of hay in the Gunnison
country, except that demand from out
side sections that were stripped bare
has caused the price to rise to $25, the
highest on record.

THE GRASSES FOR A PASTURE
(Field and Farm.)


certainly requires plenty of pasture
for the summer grazing Of his stock
In our irrigated pastures variety Of
grasses is grown in almost innumer.
able combinations. In the great ma
jofty Of cases however the best re.
suits are secured with q mixture Of
one or more grasses and at least one
variety of clover. Sweet clover alone
is used to some extent but is not gen
orally recommended in preference to
mixed grasses for irrigated pastures
The use of alfalfa as pasture crop
for cattle or sheep causes loss from
bloat and yet it is universally grown
for the purpose.
There is little uniformity at presen.
as to the kinds of grasses used. Some
pastures contain only single grass
and no clover, while others have as
many as seven or eight grasses and
two or three clovers. The use Of a
single grass or of several grasses with
out clover is inadvisable, largely be
cause of low carrying capacity. The
use Of several grasses which have diff
ferent habits Of growth and tempera
ture requirements assures more near.
ly continuous growth throughout the
season. Some grasses will grow bet
ter during cool weather or in times Of
water shortage than others, which, on
the other hand, may make rapid
growth when the temperature Il high
or when water Is abundant
The two clovers most commonly
used With the grasses are white and
alsike, sometimes one and sometimes
both being used. A very simple and
popular mixture used in irrigated pas
lures II Kentucky bluegrass and white
clover. An objection to it, however, Is
that sometimes the proportion Of white
clover is SO high as to cause bloat, par.
ticularly IL the pasture is somewhat
overtsocked. The quantity and pro
portion Of the grass and clover seed
used vary widely. A common practice
is TO seed from eight to twelve pounds
to the acre Of mixture Of various
proportions Of blue grass and white
clover. We like the following mix
ture: Smooth bronze grass 8 to I
pounds; Kentucky bluegrass to 6;
Orchard grass 4 to 6; Meadow fescue
3 to 4; white clover 1 to 2 and alsike
clover 1 to 2. This makes a total Of
16 to ~ pounds to the acre which IL
quite sufficient.
Since 1900 the average potato crop
has been four bushels to each inhabi-
tant. This was cut last year to 2.S
bushels, with the prospect Of being ev-H
en- less this year. On account Of the
high price Of seed, machinery, and
spraying material, and the scarcity Of
labor, the potato acreage i being ma
terially cut In certain sections. This
is a serious proposition, and everyone
who has available ground should plant
both early and late potatoes II he
wants them next winter to eat other
than for dessert or when company
comes.

THE REACTION

TNOUGH time has elapsed now to gauge more accur-
II ately the effect of the Zimmerman note. It was eX
~ ctedy denounced by pro-aly champions equal to
a declaration of war. With the vehemence 1t was
branded by German defenders British fabrication,
sure to be disavowed forgery and shown up by the
German authorities brought to their attention
1t is upon the German sympathzers in this country
that the blunt acceptance of responsibility for the note has
produced its greatest effect interpret the reaction
Alright our citizens of German birth ancestry feel more
deeply hurt, and are dsmaly disappointed by
the Zimmerman disclosures than any other part Of our
people They cannot understand how German official
dom could have wrung conception OF conditions on
this side of the water fail mentab to perceive the
nature of the relationship between the United States and
Mexico to say nothing of harboring the fantastic notion
that Japan would out of anpathy to the United States
break with the allies and join Germany More than that
they see the inconsistency of the Zimmerman suggestion
that Germany despite its high professions of unsesh
aims stood ready to help Mexico perpetrate bold land
grab at the expense of the United States.
All this taken together certainly reflects want of ap
probation in Germany of the difficult position occupied
by German sypahzers here and devotion they have
shown unfolding and defending the cause of their faith

has not provoked the United States to war; has unques
