NEW ENGLAND ONCE A PLAIN
Wills and VoIIeys Now Existing Are
the Result of Erosive Action of
Flowing Water.

New England was once level plain.
Time was when there were. no Berk-
shires; no White mountains. Anyone
doubling these statements is respect
fully requested to read the following
announcement of the United States
geological survey:
standing on a hilltop almost any,
where in New England on a clear day,
and looking around at the horizon, one
notices that the high level surfaces of
one hill after another approach the
plane of the circular sky line. 1t re-
Quires but little Imagination to recog-
nize In the successive hilltops the re-
mains of the even and continuous sur
face of what was once a great plain,
from which the valleys of today have
been carved by the erosive action Of
flowing water. This is most easily
recognized from a considerable eleva-
ton, especially in the broad upland
high level areas of western Massachu-
sets at Whitcomb Hills, on the Mo-
hawk Trail. This is termed a dis
sected plateau"

America Takes Up Task OF Pro-
viding Men, Money and
Food for the War.
VOLUNTEERING IS TOO SLOW
Congress Has $1,000, 100000 Bond Bill
Farmers Urged to Increase Pro-
duction-Latin American Republics
Declare Their Position-British in
Tremendous Offensive Near Arras.
By EDWARD w. PIcKARD.

Men-Money-Foo
Those are the prime war needs of
the United States.
The call to the colors is not meeting
with the response that encourages the
belief that q sufficient number of vol
unteers can be obtained to bring the
army and navy up to war strength.
Congress is taking care of the finan-
cial problem.
The matter of sufficient food is
squarely up to the American farmer.
Chairman Dent of the house COM
mittee on military affairs and other
''little army men in congress are still
hampering President Wilson's efforts
to put through the selective consrip-
tion army bill. They demand that the
volunteer system be given 80 or 80
days trial. In the opinion of the pres
ident Secretary Baker and the general
staff, this would come very near to
wasting 80 or 80 invaluable days.
The presidents plan for selective
draft is designed to permit the exemp-
ton of men who, while fit for military
service, would be more useful to the
nation in other capacities by reason
of their skill and experience in other
lines. The advocates of universal mil
itary training consider this measure q
temporary expedient but are not COM
batting it because they think it neces-
sary now. They have not, however,
abandoned the fight for universal
training and the Chamberlain bill,
which embodies their ideas, may be
tackled on to the administration meas
ure. If this is found inexpedient it
will be pushed as a follow up" de-
signed to place the military service of
the country on the proper footing for
all time.
On Thursday the war department
announced that all men who had join
ed the army after April 6, the date of
the presidents war proclamation,
would be considered volunteers for the
period of the war only. A call for
100000 men was issued for the regular
army and National Guard, in order to
give the volunteer plan try-out while
congress discusses the matter.
| To provide finances for prosecuting
the war, both for America and for the
entente allies, the administration bill
authorizing a bond issue of $4,000, ,000,-
900 was introduced in the house
Wednesday and came up for debate
Thursday. There was no reason to
doubt its speedy passage through con-
gress, for partisanship was laid aside.
Three billion dollars of the sum is to
be lent to the entente allies. There is
added to the measure a provision for
the issuance, as needed, of $2000,000,
600 in one-year treasury notes to an
ticipate the tax receipts from the war
revenue bill.
Food Production Plans.
Taking leaf from the book of Eu-
ropes terrible experience, the wise men
of America have been quick to recog

j. S. WARSH|PS
WORK MAPPED OUT
Conference Held With British
and French AdmiralS.
WILL GUARD WHOLE COAST
Service Abroad Also Discussed.
Establishment Of United States
Naval Port On Irish
Coast Likely.

Washington.-Wit high British and
French naval officers in conference
here with American naval officials,
definite steps have been taken toward
participation of the American Navy
in the war against Germany.
To attend this conference Vice
Admiral M. E. Browning, of the Brit
ish navy, and Rear-Admiral R. A.
Grassett, of the French Navy, came
to the United States on their flag
ships.
To Patrol Seaboard.
Patrol of the entire Atlantic sea-
board, reaching southward to the
Panama Canal Zone and possibly
northward to include Canada, will be
the first duty of American warships.
With that goes the necessity of guard
ing against the probable extension Of
the German submarine campaign to
include approaches to major Ameri-
can ports.
British and French ships now on
this patrol duty will be withdrawn as
soon as the American forces have
their lines established The Ameri-
can squadrons will operate from Brit
ish and French bases in the South At
lantic wherever necessary.
Secretary Daniels, Admiral Benson,
chief of naval operations and other,
officers of the American Navy, took
part in the conference, which had to
do with the part the American fleet
will play in the war either Immediate
ly or later when it's strength in light
patrol craft and trained men has been
increased.
U-Boat Attack Expected.
Commanders of the British and
French forces off the American coasts,
it is known, have expected that Ger.
many would extend her submarine op-
ments to patrol vigorously the ap-
proaches to the chief American har-
bors have been made and will be car
ried out by American ships.
1t has been expected that Germany
would formally announce submarine
mouth of the Chesapeake, Charleston
and Savannah and the mouth of the
Delaware. These are the arteries
through which flows the main traffic
in foodstuffs and war supplies for Eu-
rope.
Unless a blockade is declared in
line with her previous action Ger
many would be under the necessity
of giving warning before attacking
merchant craft under neutral flags.
Many navy officers doubt that any
considerable number of German sub
marines can be spared from the task
of blockading the British Isles for
work on this side of the Atlantic.
Sporadic operations within such pre-
scribed areas are looked for, however,
and no precaution to guard against
them will be overlooked by the navy.

This heading is only to remind
you that we are going to put ous
efforts behind the farmer and give
him the best that we have. Our
idea is that the farmer must sue
ceed first to make things go just
right, vet on the other hand, it is
also 20 the farmers interest to
make the town boom, so as to make
his field better for selling his pro-
duCe. Withouta good town farm
ers cannot be successful. The in
