DUTCH TRADE MISSION
LEAVES FOR AMERICA
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
THE HAGUE. August 1S.-The COM
mission from the Netherlands to the
United States to discuss embargo ques-
tons concerning this country has left
European port for New York.
AMSTERDAM. August lS.-In connec-
ton with the sailing of the Dutch trade
mission to America. there is an inter
esting note in a leading journal of
economic and statistical news which
calculates Hollands estimated stocks of
wheat as 10000 tons and the new
home crops yield for consumption
6S, 900.
This supply is sufficient to last until
the middle of March. 1918. at the pres
ent rate of consumption, which has
been reduced to about one-third of the
normal rate through bread rationing
and mixture with other grain flours.
Unless it soon can be known to a
certainty that 100000 to 250,0Oo tons of
wheat can be imported from North or
South America, the ration must be
reduced further and the consumption of
the bread loaf further changed to avert
a complete lack of the staple between
the middle of March and Septem Der,
1918. Accordingly. f. f. Posthuma. min
lister of agriculture, has announced a
system of premiums for specified crops
grown on hitherto unplowed meadow
land for the purpose of increasing the
1918 homegrown crops.

LONDON. August 1S.-The loss of life
resulting from the destruction of neu-
trail vessels during the war up to June
80. according to figures which are
declared Incomplete, gives a total of
533 persons There are records here
of that number, but only the neutral

have records of the full losses
Since June 80 there have been many
additions to this list. Norway suffering

Norwegian, ~ Swedish, II Danish and
16 Greek 1t was recently announced
in the house of commons that s,1iS lives
were lost on British merchantmen dur
ing the same period.
Fear of German inhumanity to neu-
trail as well as belligerent delegates at
tending the seamens conference con-
vened here now to consider the crimes
committed by U-boat commanders
makes it necessary to keep secret the
names of delegates in actual service,
especially as some of the delegates favor
a prolonged boycott of all German ship
ping after the war.

A Sad Story

A man | met upon the road was
carrying heavy load of rakes
and spades and garden hose, and
other tools nobody knows.
Even behind him came his
horse ebony and slow and sick,
of course), drawing a wagon so
wabbly of wheels it nearly fell
down on the animals heels.
asked him whittier he was
bent, and what his heavy burden
meant; for I knew he'd had a
tidy farm and supposed he'dkept
it free from harm.
He said the hail had taken his
wheat, It'll there wasn't enough
for the chickens to eat; that
lightning had killed his high-bred
stock, and only one calf was left
of the flock.
Not-even his house or barn was
left-of everything he was be-
reft; for a fire had burned his
house to the ground, and left of
his ba n a smouldering mound.
Now why was he left without
a cent-not even enough to pay
his rent? A rich man-doomed
to live with the poor-well, he
was the man who wouldn't in
sure.
Don't you be like this unfortu-
nate man but 90 to Felix Martzen
and plan to let. him insure you
against fire and hail so that you
will have no cause to weep or
wall.

Government
Reports

indicate there is serious shortage in the
acreage and prospective yields of food
producing crops for this year, especially
of winter wheat.
The natural results of such a condition
should be high prices again this fall for
all grains and food stuff.
If these reports are correct this should
be the year in which to plant every avail
able acre to some food producing crop.
BY so doing you will be rendering real
service to your country and incidentally
adding materially to your income for the
year.
