WAR NOT EXPECTED
TO DECREASE STUDENTS
international News Service)

international News Service)
GALESBURG, Ill, Aug. I'm spite
of the fact that hundreds of students
from Knox and other colleges of the
state are wearing the United States
Army O. ID. and won't be back to
their classrooms this fall, Knox Col
lege administrative officials do not
expect a cut roster for the coming
term as a result of the war.
A drop in the average age of the
students is expected. Almost the en-
tire senior class of Knox has entered
army service. But the incoming
freshman class will be larger than
ever, it is believed. The confidence
is based on present applications and
on the experience Of colleges in the
Civil War. At that time many of the
finest students in the nation went
INTO the army, but their places were
taken by younger brothers, who came
and remained in school until they
reached an age when they could be
admitted to the army.
One feature that will attract many
students to Illinois college is the
fact hat Knox n others are plan
ming to follow the recommendations
of the education section of the Coun-
ell of National Defense in installing
a military course TOT Jne training OIL
students through the course of the
war in military tactics and drills.
The recommendations of the COun-
ell are:
That each college induce it's stu
dents to continue in college at least
until the age of CONSUMPTION and be-
yond this age until drawn for active
service.
The college should, as far as pos
sible, make arrangements on their
military science and tactics with
credits as a part of the curriculum.
That intercollegiate activities in
athletics be continued in so far as
they do not interfere with prepare
tiOns for national service.
Knox and practically every other
Illinois college is ready to follow the
advice offered by the Council of De-
tense. Educators and leaders in the
conduct of the war alike assert that
it would be fatal to the nation to al
low the educational standards of it's
youth during the war period to drop,
leaving the nation worn out and re-
tarded in progress when peace comes.

TOMATOES ON SINGLE STEM
Set Plants Eighteen Inches Apart in
Rows Three Feet Wide-Pinch
Out All Shoots.

Where tomatoes are to be trained
to a single stem, the plants are set IS
inches apart in rows three feet wide.
AS soon as the young plant begins to
grow after being transplanted it sends
out branches or shoots from the axis
of the leaves. When these shoots ap-
pear pinch them out, which will cause
the main stalk to shoot up very rapid
~. Put up a stake five feet tall and tie
the plant to it. AS the plant grows
more suckers will form. Continue to
pinch these out and train the plant to
the stake. The fruit will be formed
on flower clusters about six inches
apart on the main stem.
The method of training does not
produce as many tomatoes per plant,
but the fruit is much larger In size and
of higher quality. This method al
lows a great many more plants per
acre, therefore the yield per acre is
greatly increased.

A SERIOUS SITUATION

Tha the coal situation on the Twin
Falls tract is apt to be serious. not
merely this winter, but before winter,
cannot be questioned. The alarming
state of affairs shown in the inter
views in The Times of Tuesday must
be remedied before winter unless Sc
we're suffering is to result. The peo-
pie in his instance can do as sug-
gested in an interview quoted. they
can write to the state public utilities
commission and to the state defense
board. to push the matter of the en-
barge on through freight on the Den-
yer & Rio Grande until Idaho gets
coal. The state commissions are will
ing to act as far as they can, but they
have many things to distract their
attention. What is needed in this
case is concentration on this particu-
lar issue, in order that the very busy
national railroad council and the in
terstate commission be
stirred to act promptly in this case.
Following commercial organization
resolutions, a few thousand individual
letters might do a lot of good. 1t will
not take long to write a card or a
short letter.
There is another phase of the mat
ter that should attract attention and
that is the fact that President Nudge
OF the d. & r. c., who is expected in
Salt Lake City today to discuss the
coal situation. wants an embargo pre-
venting coal from leaving Utah. some
thing that would be extremely disas-
trous to his part of the country. 1t
would certainly give moral backing
TO the state utilities board and the
state war council to have hundreds
Of letters and cards from people here
showing their need and their interest.
Why not try it, and not leave it for
George to Do"

FOR INCREASED CORN YIELDS
Gain of 6.31 Bushels Per Acre by
Thinning Secured at ohio Sta
ton on Tested Seed.

Thinning corn has resulted in a
gain, IS a f%our-year average at the
Ohio experiment station, of 6.31 bush
els per acre in the case of seed tested
for termination before planting, and
of S.47 bushels in the case of INFESTED
seed. The average time required for
thinning an acre of corn was 81 hours.
In one case three kernels were plant
ed per hill, and on the plot in com
parison a generous quantity of seed
was dropped and the plants were
thinned to three per hill when 6 to 8
inches high. With tested seed an av-
erage yield of 1928 bushels per acre
was obtained with corn planted three
kernels per hill, and $3.50 bushels per
acre was harvested from thinned corn.
With INFESTED seed a yield Of 55.3S
bushels per acre was secured from
regular planting and 63.S5 bushels per
acre where the corn was thinned. With
corn at only 80 cents a bushel, one
would make 50 cents an hour by thin
ming on this basis.

MAKE A REAL JAM FOR
"SAMMIES" IN FRANCE.
international News Service)

international News Service)
INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. American
boys in the trenches are not going TO
bring back dreadful tales of bareback,
if a model Red Cross kitchen just
opened here proves successful. They
will bring back stories of enjoying
jams n marmalades of the kind
mother makes, under the fire of Ger
man guns.
The idea was proposed to Wash
ington officials by Alfred Potts, a
lawyer, with a good appetite, who
conceived the idea of supplying the
delicacies which are not included in
the army fare. 1t is being tried out
here, and, if successful, similar kitch-
ems will be instituted in every large
city.
A score of society women are daily
making jams, i%ellies, marmalades and
similar sweets in the kitchen under
the direction of competent teachers.
The raw food is contributed, as is the
kitchen, and the expense is met by
subscription. Within a short timC
hundreds of glasses and cans Of
sweets will be ready for shipment to
France.

STERN MEASURES REQUIRED

We are informed that an article in
this column some weeks ago entitled
Shoot Him on the Spot was sharply
critized as an argument in favor of
lynch law. Such a conclusion could
only have been reached by some wat
cry brain with a tendency toward
paresis. The TIMES simply declar-
ed its belief that strict enforcement
of law and repression of disorder in a
''shoot him on the spot" spirit toward
all resistants-was desperately and
Immediately necessary.
Since that time the necessity has
increased rather than otherwise.
When the head of an order the L.
W. w, with avowed purpose and past
record subversive of all order and
rights, threatens the President of the
United States with dire results if GER
tain demands are not met, we believe
every patriotic American citizen will
feel that the limit of endurance has
been reached.
Yet this is precisely what was done
on Tuesday of this week by W. D.
Haywood. secretary of the /. w. W.
His telegram to the President declar-
ed that a general strike of miners,
lumbermen and ~harvesters throughout
the West and Middle West would be
called at once-Unless the deported
Arizona members of the 1. w. w. are
Immediately returned to their honest
Could impudent disloyalty go further?
And it is the federal authorities, thus
challenged, who are able to proper
ly deal with the situation. Local Of
ficers, even governors of states, are
handicapped in many ways. But no
state boundaries are known to the
United States in cases of Treason and
sedition. 1t is to be hoped that the
iron hand may be at once extended
either with or without the velvet
glove.

VACANT LAND ALONG FENCES
Not Many Farmers Ever Think Of
Amount of Waste Strips on Either
Side Of Barriers.

Few farmers stop to think how much
lane is taken up by the fences. The
fence itself takes little room, but it is
impossible to grow anything for sew
eral feet on both sides of the fence.
The department of agriculture reports
that the ordinary rail fence occupies
a strip over u feet wide. About 5000
feet of such a fence takes up an acre
of land. Hedges take up a little more
than the rail fence, the width varying
according to the width of the hedge
