 You will see that the former figues given are very far from being exact and on some points greatly eXaSger ated but they 4re doubly misleading because they leave entirely out of con Sideration the very large quantities of fooastuffs which Denmark at all times and also during the war has constantly exported to England. The official fig tire for bacon exported from Denmark to England during 1916 alone is for isl stance not less than S4 Sn1 tons. a fig ure that is surely astonishing consider ing the smallness and limited resources of Denmark.

DENMARK MAKES DENIAL CHARGES
 MhDE IN PRIN I
IRepuslioan A. p. Leased wireI

WASHINGTON. June e1-Constantin Brun, the Danish minister neIe has been furnished figures hy his govern ment to refute published charges that Denmark has during the whole of the present war received enormous profits by expectations. particularly oI food stuffs, to Germany, to the detriment and loss of the entente allies. The charges have been published in some newspapers in London and in Paris, and later in the United States.
 This campaign" said Minister Brun in d statement to The Associated Press has been based on incorrect and in complete statistics and on unwarTanted conclusions These absolutely false ac- cusations against Denmark were flatly contradicted in the House Of CclnmoHs on March T by the British Blockade Minister Lord Cecil who in summing up his statements said:
 Ut has been suggested that Den mark has been guilty of great ,ielin- quencies as regards ourselves. I know that that has been Very much resented in Denmark. l wish to say. speaking for the British government that i make no such charge against DeuIparl, at all l remember the Danish agreement and tne campaign then set on foot, and l can only say that that agreement has been carried out with admirable fide- ity ny the Danish parties to it. 1 be- iieve that it has proved exceedingly useful and that it has been well ob- served by the whole Danish population with very few exceptions. It has been suggested that even if that he true of the first Danish agreement there is some other agreement into which Den mark has entered which sne has not kept So far as Denmark Is concerned T am not speaking of Holland--there has been no agreement With respect 10 agricultural products. Both sides, Ne IS well as Denmark, are perfectly free iI the matter. Discussions have cer- tainly taken place and assurances have certainly been given, but l desire to say, with the utmost emphasis. that in my judgment the Danes, whenever they have given us any assurance. have en- deaVOred honestly ard hOnoraol'' tN '- fill them. For these reasons. so far as Denmark is concerned l am 4uthor ized by his majesty's government to say. after full consideration Ot aA Ia. aspects. that they do not see any reason to modify their present block ade policy with respect to that country.
 Nevertheless the agitation against Denmark continues and few days ago iH cOrroboration of those claims there was published the following figures of exports from Denmark to Germany:

Judge E. G. Mitchell for Delegate-at-
 Large.

This editorial is not inspired or paid for. It would not have been written had it not been for the fact that some prominent men are writing letters over the district trying to get their friends to vote for their favorite candidates for Delegates to the Constitutional Convention.
 Judge E. G. Mitchell, of Harrison, is our friend. He has never asked us or any one else, as far as we know, to write even letter for him, but we know him, and we know that he would make one of the best members that body would contain. In law practice he has probably few equals as trial lawyer. He has always been able to take care, of himself against all corners.
 He has one of the best private libraries in the state. He reads his books He is generous, impulsiye, energetic and absolutely clean. He is in favor of the Western idea of pro- gress.
 HIS COHSEeSSiOiidI OloIIiCG Ia COtHpOo- ed of two judicial districts. Judge Mitchell lives in one of them com posed of Boone, Newton, Marion, Searcy and Van Buren counties Add ed to this is Baxter county. He is in active practice in all. It is safe to say that he will carry all these countie ies by an overwhelming majority. Still these counties do not vote as many votes as 4L. of Benton, Madison and Carroll. These counties have two or three candidates. We believe it is fair for the Fourteenth district to vote for one candidate from the Fourth and the people of the Fourth district to vote for one candi- date from the Fourteenth. If it is done, of course Judge Mitchell will be elected. He is worthy of the honor, and at least N ewton county will give him 500 votes. Newton County Times.

Plant That Garden-The War Is On

If you have not planted that garden which you have been planning all spring, it will be well to buy your seed and get busy right now. Do not forget the war is upon us and no one knows how much higher foodstuffs will go. Be sure to place the garden near the house where 1t can be cared for during spare time. If the family is large it may pay to make the garden large enough to use horse power for cultivation. You cannot afford to waste your time in the garden. It's business proposition to get as much out of 1t as possible for the time you put in. Be sure the fence is in good shape so that your neighbor' s dogs and chickens will not ruin your crop. If you need any suggestions con- corning where to buy seed, how to buy and if you want to know what to plant and when to plant 1t, write to J. s. Knox, Horticulturist with the Exten- sion Division of the University of Ar kansas, Old State House, Little Rock. He will be glad to answer your questions. In the meantime send post card ask ing for one of the garden calendars. This calendar will give you the names of the vegetables which you can plant during April and the succeeding months. It tells you whether to plant the seed in hills or drills, the width of the rows for each vegetables, the distance of plants in the rows and how soon after planting you may expect any particular vegetable to be ready to eat Suggest ions for the amount of seed to plant are also given and should be valuable, while the number of vegetables listed will probably suggest many things for the garden that will be good to eat which you have not thought about.

Community Singing Rapidly Spreading

The latest phrase in the development of the spreading of music in America is community singing. Community choruses have been formed in many cities all over the country, and thous- ands of people have become inspired with the joy of singing together, Wit ness the recent "Song and Light" fes- tival and Harry Barnhart's choruses in the park in New York This idea of community singing was not imposed upon the masses. It was the logical outcome of the desire of the individual to express himself. spontaneous y and untaught.
 Man expresses himself in music from his infancy, but he is seldom aware of it or does he trouble to check up the numerous occasions upon which he has burst forth in song. The child at play sings. In the kindergarten the chief joy of the child is singing with his fellows. The mother rocks her infant to sleep with a lullaby. The | IlidIl IluiIiS, WHlSIlcS UT SHES aG HIS work. When man gathers at the festive board, he sings. In time of war, man gives expression to his strong emotions in patriotic songs. It is his natural form of expression.
 A prominent educator has remark ed that the mission of music is not com- plete until it has reached every fireside. Sing if you feel joyous, we are told. There IS more singing going on in the world than we are aware of. The desire to sing is becoming keener, and with the growth of the community chorus, more pentup spirits are finding an outlet for expression. That form of choral singing, natural and un- studied, is filling long-felt gap and need, is emphaticaIly demonstrated by the rapid growth of community spirit in sing ing. Il -News-Scimitar.
