Win WRAI MEASURE.

The ear is on the way to Siberia.
with what measure We mete shall be
melted to you again.
Years ago those who read keenan's
description of the Russian exiles 10
Siberia chilled with horror at the re-
iation. The wish forced itself to their
lips that the measure thus melted by
tyranny might be measured again TO
those who inflicted punshments so
terrible upon men and women who de-
sired freedom of thought and speech.
And now within less than a lifetime
the "czar of all the Russias' is on his
way to Tobo!sk an exile along the
men and broken men have worn with
weary feet.
Gods ways see mdark but soon or
late they touch the hills of day. His
patience may seem TO have endured
overlong with kings and kaiserS and
autocrats. But in the fullness Of time
His purposes prevail So today the
peasant rules Russia and the car Is
an exile to Siberia.
Amid the crash Of worlds new
epoch rises out of time as new con-
tinents are thrown up from the sea by
the unleashed forces Of nature. When
this war is finally over all things shall:
have become new. Ancient customs
and beliefs sade in the fierce light OF
the world confagration. Out OF the
blood and debris will arise new peoples
with new purposes, decisive, able. sin
cere purged an purified as with fire.

THE FARM HARVEST.
TVinton Ea9le.1

Nature and the farmers have made a
great team this year. Never were there
such crops in Benton county, and at
such prices. Oats are running from
eighty to 100 bushels TO the acre and
selling from So TO 20 cents per bushel.
Barley is running better than forty bu-
shells to the acre and selling at over
S1.25 per bushel. Hay and rye are in
the same ratio. Corn is coming fine.
The stand is good running three and
four stalks to the hill. The prospects
for sweet corn is better than for sever
al years. The prospects are the two
local factories will put up from three
to four million cans apiece. The Iowa
company expect to pack to capacity
at its factories in Shellsburg. Garrison
and LaPorte. Both companies are put
ting in machinery OF the latest models
so as to overcome the scarcity in labor.
The crop OF new hogs will be large as
every hog lot is crowded with young
pigs. The price remains high and prob
ably will remain SO until after the pres
ent crop OF young pigs are matured
and marketed. The local price for hogs
las. week was over s1a.A1 These crops
and these prices are having a marked
effect upon the price of farm land. The
lasA three sales ran at $4,000, $225.00
and $262.50. The Eagle hopes the far
mers Of Benton county will not forget
to return thanks to the good Lord and
nature for the great fortune they are
receiving this year.

mater in which congress can not be
too liberal.
1t is not to be doubted that the VOL
unteering would have been three or
four times as heavy if this important
matter had been looked after early.
No doubt, very largo number, who
asked to be exempted after the draft
on account of their dependent families,
would have been in line before the
draft was made. if the people at Wash
ington had advised them just how such
matters would be arranged. No man
who is worth powder, would care to
leave his family dependent upon char

enthusiastic for while, and then they
might lose interest. And besides. men
DO not want their families dependent

There has been much to do in Wash

how much it would have expedited
matters If this important item had been

DISCONTINUE SUNDAY SPORTS.
tCedar Rapids Gazette.J
The red law has done. with unani-
nous consent and hearty approval
what the blue law did not do, what it
was supposed to do and what was
much opposed so long as the blue law
was prominent as an agent.
Sunday baseball has been discontin-
ued in Cedar Rapids. The suspension
of the sport has been made to apply to
seven days to the week. Not that the
game has lost any OF its popularity.
There is a conviction on the part of
the public that, when the country is at
war, there is something better than de-
voting time to organized baseball for
young men to do. All these ball play
ers are physically fit. With few excep-
tions their years are covered by the
draft With still fewer exceptions they
are eligible to volunteer.
All the teams in league could not
remain intact unless there were some
slackers among the players. That Is
what the public thought. The press
did not need to emphasize, nor even to
punt out Lie IuCd. iiS eShS4oS SOA2
sciousness felt It.
No doubt there are hundreds Of ball
games played in France by young
Americans who may be able now and
then to find an hour available for rec
reation. No one cares whether this
spare time is or is not part of the
first day Of the week. Everyone hopes
that our soldiers may derive pleasure
from every legitimate enjoyment.
The red law-the law OF warts do
ing many notable things.
There was feeling that the blue
laws represented the narrowness Of the
past There is a conviction that the
red law represents the imperative need
of the present and all the breadth OF
freedom for the future.
There is a sentiment that the Red
Cross needs money that would be paid
for admission to the games more than
it is needed by the league treasurer.
There is a belief that there are bat
teries mohe importance than baseball
pitchers and catchers, and that. in gen.
eral, France should have an oppor-
tunity to witness the game as played
by professionals.

IF scorn and ridicule and publicity
could do the business, there would Do
no such thing as "profiteering" in the

But when a person becomes "a pro-

trymen, and defies their scorn as long

Doctrine
OF IMMORTAL SOUL
Rev. James L. Gordon Says Bible
Truth Is Evident

Quoting many texts to prove the i'm
mortality of the soul, Rev. James l..
Gordon. pastor of the First Congrega-
tional Church, in his sermon yester-
day delivered an address on the sub
ject, Has Sir oliver Lodge Solved the
Great Problem of Immortality? What
Is the Best Proof of an Invisible
World?" based on Sir divers book,
Raymond"
DIR. Gordon declared the souls one
expanding thought is Immortality. and
he believed the best evidence of an
invisible world is an invisible world
within, and It is the oldest thought of
history. He took the view that there
is wonderful law of resurrection in
nature, and that life is universal and
persistent. He cited a case in the
British Museum, where a vase filled
with seeds 1900 years old was emptied
on the ground and within thirty days
these seeds sprang into life and bios
somed as the rose
He quoted the last words of distin-
guished characters to prove that their
dying moments were filled with faith
in the hereafter, and reasoned from
this and like proof that death does
not end all. and that our souls may
take up the burdens of life on other
shores after the spirit has left our
bodies.
