The Russian armies are continuing
their vigorous offensive in eastern
Galicia. Other groups of Russia's
vast forces apparently are ready to
spring into activity at various points
along the 800-mile front.
While everything appears to be
running smoothly in the military ma
chine, governmental affairs are ruff

ed to have resigned because of diff
ferences over controlling Ukraine.
Coincident with this come reports of
disorders in Petrograd. Stray shots

radical socialists and democrats re-

Despite the change in the chancel-
lorship, the German reichstag revolt
apparently is unchecked. A majority

new chancellor is expected to make
his first speech.

During the war, when foodstuffs Of
all kinds will continually diminish,
many unusual kinds of human food
will be brought into use. The SOY
bean is one of the crops which will be
utilized. Already several manufacture
ers in the East have successfully sub
stituted soy beans for navy beans in
baked pork and beans. Indeed, the
demand in the East for soy beans for
packing and for planting has been so
great since last fall that the cotton oil
mills have practically ceased crushing
the seed and are turning them to the
planters and packers. One mill which.
last fall, bought 10000 bushels OF
seed and planned to crush at least
100000 bushels did not crush any seed
but disposed of the whole stock for
food and planting. Only the yellow
seeded varieties are used for food.
With the wartime demand on the
sOy-bean crop for an animal concern
trate, for human food, and for oil In
addition to the normal demand for
forage and seed for planting, there is
no doubt that high prices will be MAIN
tanned. Soy beans are now selling at
$500 to 81 bushel-at double the
usual price-and farmers should not
fail to plant the largest possible acre.
