FLAG DAY IN D. c.
General Holiday to Hear Presi-
dent Wilson'S Speech.
Recalls Prophetic Words of
Executive Year Ago Today.

washington, June 14.-F1ag day
celebrations took on a special signifi-
canoe here today with the country at
war and President Wilson a speaker
at patriotic exercises organized by gov
eminent employees at the base of
ashington monument. In anticipa-
ton of an address of more than or
binary importance thousands gathered
eminent departments closed to permit
clerks to attend. Secretary Lansing
agreed to preside.
Many of the audience recalled that
standing in the same spot one year
ago, before war seemed imminent, the
president uttered defiance of the po-
litical activity in the United States of
foreign-born citizens in these words:
There is disloyalty active in the
United States and it must be absolute
ly crushed. There are those at this
moment who are trying to levy a spe-
cies of political blackmail saying do
what we wish in the interest of for
eign sentiment or we will wreak our
vengeance at the polls This is the
sort of thing against which the Amer
lean nation will turn with a might and
triumph of sentiment which will teach
these gentlemen once for all that 10y
atty to this flag is the first test OF toll
erance in the United States"
The United States Marine band
played patriotic airs and a chorus of
500 voices organized among govern
rier small American flags and as the
band played the Star Spangled Banner
a big flag was hoisted to the top of
the monument

NEW CRUX IN CHINA
Police Chief Acting Premier Prompt
Iy Prorogues Parliament.

London, June 1.-THE Chinese par
lament has been "unceremoniously dis
missed" according to Tien Tsin dis
patch received today by the Exchange
Telegraph company.
According to a Reuter- dispatch from
Picking today, Chang Chao Tung,
chief of police of that city, has accept
ed the post of acting premier of China
and in such a capacity has counter
signed the presidents order for dis
solution of the Chinese parliament WI
Ting Fang, the premier, had refused
to affix his signature to such an order.
The Chinese constitution requires the
premier's attestation to such an edict
and thus the dissolution had been
blocked.
Southern Chinese provinces, it was
declared, have telegraphed their re-
fusal to recognize the presidents au-
thority and civil war is feared.

SOY BEANS FOR SEED.
Increased Acreage Recommended for the
Northern Farmers.

Northern farmers may well plant a
much larger acreage to soy beans for
seed, according to the United States de-
partment of agriculture. In view Of the
present and prospective high prices of
soy beans for food and manufacturing
purposes, there is no likelihood of over.
production this year. The soy bean also
is a soil improver, and the straw is val
liable for feeding purposes.
As seed crop they soy bean should
be planted about June ! in the North.
However, in the southern part of the cen.
trail states paintings may be made as late
as June 10. Where clover or grass has
winter killed, the soy bean may be plant.
ed to good advantage
Varieties with yellow seeds are pre-.
ferred by food manufacturers. The Ito
San is the earliest maturing yellow va
riety available and yields well in Wis
consin, Michigan, northern Indiana. Ohio
Massachusetts,, Rhode Island and Con-
necticut. In the central and southern
parts of the northern states the Medium
Yellow, Mongol and AGkado are more de-
sirable sorts. Considerable quantities Of
seed of these varieties are still available
for planting.
Northern farmers should be particular
ly careful not to plant the Mammoth
variety, of which much seed is in the
market in the North. This variety, also
knewn as Late Yellow, Southern Yellow
and Virginia Yellow, will not mature
north of the Potomac and Ohio rivers.
