Among the different firms of Pen

farmer, there is perhaps none more
progressive than the firm of Levy &
Hallmark, who are establishing a
marketing agency for all farm pro-
ducts. There will be no occasion
henceforth to bring produce to town
and haul it back home to be dumped
in the waste pile, then it is stated.

Russia Situation Grave.
Washington, May 14.-News of the

greatly to an apprehension fe,t here
for the democratic movement, to
which encouragement and the moral
support OF the United States Is soon

partis&ns of the old regime and in

official person since the revolution.
He declared as affairs are going it
was impossible to save the country,
He said the people have tasted free

urged them since they have suffered
so long under the old regime to suf-
fer a little longer and carry on the
war. Kcrensky was a trif.e more out
spoken than any of the other officials
but his speech was not unrepresenta-

Gerstandig of freedom among the
masses, and an energy being used to
bring about peace, were turned into
efforts for defense. Russia would be
unable to go on with the war.
