Profit In Late Beans.

On account Of too much rain and
cold weather our garden bean crop
first planted in the spl'ing Of 1915 was
hopeless, writes correspondent of the
Farm and Fireside. The weather con-
tinued so unfavorable our last planting
was not made until the middle of Au-
gust, when four rows of beans were
planted three rods long. From this
planting we gathered thirty gallons TO
can, beside supplying the family with
green beans. The vines were also well
filed with small beans when frost
came. To get such good results from
so late planting we encouraged the
growth by good tillage. This result
with late planted beans will encourage
us to follow the same plan in future
years.

Artificial Prosperity.

Our foreign trade has reached the ten
billion dollar mark. Exports, $1,000.
O00,O imports, $4,000, 100000. The
export total will fade rapidly after the
war is over. But the imports? Will
these, too. fade2 They will not. If the
present Free Trade Tariff remains in
force. impoverished Europe and enter
prising Japan will dump their surplus
of industrial products on the American
market Then we shall wish we had
q good, all-round Protective Tariff once
more. What we are now having is a
purely artificial prosperity. born of war
conditions. If we are to have after war
prosperity we must have Protection

Cant Keep the Tariff Question Out

The great war question which occu
pies the minds of the people of this
country and the front page of the pa
pers will likely place in the background
another question which is of vital i'm
portance to our people. The Tariff
question. This should not be 30. One
party stands for Free Trade and the
other for Protective Tariff. If we
keep in power the party we now have
they will insist on letting the Free
Trade law enacted by Underwood and
his cohorts stand If we put the other
party in power they will repeal the law,
and place duty on imports which will
bar lot of foreign made stuff and
leave us to make them. They would
be mighty glad if the all.absorbing war
question will keep the Tariff question
out, but it wont.-Collinsville Gala

With the drawing of the serial mum
bers for the drafting of the new Unit
ed States army in Washington prob
ably Saturday of this week, the fact
that war actually exists will be
brought home even to the most remote
sections OF the country. 1t is the first
concrete evidence, apparent to every
body, that the country is really in
volved in the gigantic world war
For three months, the United States
has been beligerent, but everything
has moved along in a smooth, normal
fashion and it is hard to comprehend
that the peace of half century has at
last been broken.
The system of selection for the draft
army of young American men is adj.
mittedly fair in every respect. The el.
ement Of possible favoritism has been,
1t would seem, entirely eliminated.
America has moved slowly in this
war, due delibcration having marked
all steps. There will be no hystcria
in connection with the drawing at
Washington, There will be excite
ment and interest, without doubt, but
this very measured tread which has
marked this country's war prcpara-
tions will be reflected in the compare
tive calmness with which the young
men eligible for the conscript army
will await the results of the drawing
Each has had the opportunity to vol
unteer, thereby picking his own
branch of the service, and now 1t be.
comes the turn Of the government to
make the selection-to place each
young man whore it believes he can
most benefit his country during the
struggle, whether it be at home or on
the firing line.
Contrast with this, if you please, tho
fiery scenes attendant upon the draft
in 1862. Memories come of "FOrt
Fizzle," that Holmes county retreat
for those who would resist army ser
vice. Partisan suspicion, dstrust of
the government, forceful resistance
and the like all arise to complete Il
picture Of the last time the United
States resorted to draft to nll it's ar
mics. IT was then stigma, a dis
grace, an opprobrium, to be drafted
Truly, the world has rolled ON 'and
times have changed.
