EUROPE NEEDS u. :. LIVE STOCK

Minister of Agriculture Prothero stated recently in the
house of commons that as soon as the masses of the British
people begin to clamOr for a cheap supply of meat the herds
of the English farmers will have to be increased at all costs
by the Importation of live stock from every available quarter.
This means much for the farmers and ranchers of the United
States and Canada, because they will be given the first chance
to supply the cattle needed to replenish the British herds.
Current prices of live stock in this country are highly re
muneratve at present and farmers should do all that is posi-
bic to increase their herds now that they have the assurance
of an early demand for live cattle from England and ireland.
where. owing to shortage of feeding stuffs, the farmers will
be compelled to reduce their live stock during the remainder of
he war. AS the requirements of the central empires of Eu-
o and of France are certain to be even greater than those OF
England. the outlook for the man who increases his herds OF
live stock in this country is very bright.

ii q SCOUTS

The Boy Scouts of America performed a notable service to
the country i'm their campaign for the sale of the Liberty Loan
bonds. Through their efforts more than $25OOOOOO of the
bonds were sold directly. How many sales were due indirect
ly to their activity can not be known.
The Boy Scouts worked Systematically and thoroughly and
with an earnestness that was inspiring. They covered fields
That could not have been well covered by other agencies and
effected sales that would not have been made without their
efforts. The Scouts have not only proved their PATRIOTISM;
thew have shown their efficiency and their civic value.
It is a pleasing coincidence that the Red Gross campaign
for SiOOOOOW. which Immediately followed the conclusion OF
the Liberty Loan campaign, resulted in an oversubscription of
practically the same percentage as the Oversubscription to the
loan. The American people are well over 100 per cent patrl-
Oic and well over 100 per cent generous.

Officials of the New York assay office, after a count, report
that tbe greatest horde OF gold ever stored in one place is lii
that depository. 1t totals $765,OOOOOO and consists of bullion
and British, French and American coins. Superintendent Verne
M. Bowie saws that the bullion on hand was more than ten
times the normal average of previous years. The greatest total
prior to the war was ~$S0,0OOOOO. In 1914 it was $50 100000.
This years huge total is attributed to gold imports from the
allies to meet war bills and also to abnormal local receipts.

OUR PART IN THE BLOCKADE

Netrals possess the legal right to trade with any belliger-
et. They can sell contraband of war as long as they can es-
cape a blockade. When their territory adjoins that of a bel
ligerent the enemies of that belligerent cannot prevent such
trading without violating the neutrality and territorial integ-
rity of the neutral country. Denmark, Holland and Switzer-
land are in this position. Germany wishes to buy from them
all the food and other materials of which she is in need to the
limit of their capacity to supply them.
Before the United States entered the war, Americans had
the right to sell to those neutrals and to Germany, though
such trade was subject to the risks of running the British
blockade, which was not perfectly effective. Since we entered
the war no American can sell to Germany or to those who in
tend to resell to that country without violating the law of trad
ing with the enemy. To dispose of doubtful cases and make
effective the blockade of Germany, congress has passed the
espionage bill comforting upon the president extraordinary CON
troll over exports to any country.
This is grim war. We are sending troops to Europe to kill
Germans, and we shall try to starve Germany into submission
by depriving her of food just as she is trying to starve England
by her submarine campaign. If the harvests are poor IN cen
trail Europe, Germany will be hard pressed and we must make
sure that our exports to her neutral %neighbors do not enable
them to supply food for her armies.
1t would be treason to help German soldiers kill our men
in Europe by sending food and other supplies to neutrals which
would find its way into our enemy's hands. Germany must be
buying freely from these neutrals, otherwise we would not
hear so much about the depreciation of German currency and
exchange in Switzerland and Holland Commercial.

WORK ON NEW LIBERTY LOAN

Immediate work for the subscription of the next Liberty

In a recent speech he called attention to the work done

purposes; that it was urgently necessary that this government

That the Russian army is again on the offensive, whether
The thrust in Galicia shall be successful or not, will be welcome
news to the allies as giving promise that the giant of the east
is shaking off his torpor and will henceforth add some share
to the multiplying anxieties of the central powers. Though
the new thrust may not carry the Russian colors a single mile
nearer to Lemberg, it will nevertheless have, if energeticallN
prosecuted, all the moral effect of a victory.
1t will tend to fan into flame the embers of discomfort il.
Austria Hungary, and will, by dividing that empires attention
between its three threatened fronts, weaken its resistansce
against Cadorna at the head of the Adriatc, and against Sarrail
with the allied Serbian force in Macedonia. 1t will have the
further important effect of destroying German hopes of a sep
arate peace or an armistice, upon which Teutonic diplomacy
and intrigue have been darkly busy since the overthrow of the
Romanoffs and long before.
Many students of the strategy of the war have expressed
the belief that the great conflict would end-where it began-in
the Balkans. But without the active aid of Russia the allies
could not hope to stage their final victory in that field.
With that aid, however, it is not at all unreasonable to
think that Austria may be so harassed by the three fold assault
that the young emperor-al already FESTIVE under German domin-
ation-will be ready to break with his masterful ally and
make terms for himself. Even with Austria humbled and re
duced to quiescence, Germany might be able to continue the
struggle singe-handed for a long time, but the allied program
would be immensely simpliied, and not even the most Opt,
