DANISH SENTIMENT.

This nation must shake off the last
shred OF sentiment that clings TO the
volunteer system. 1t proved fail
urer in, me recent mobilization along
the, Mexican border. A call for
100000 volunteers has been unan-
swered, 10 these many weeks, yet the
blatant congressman stand np and
declare that the system has never
been given fair trial. 1885,.
Lieutenant General Bridges, a
member OF the British war mission,
in a recent interview said that the
volunteer system has cost the lives
OF the most valuable citizens and
crippled industrial mobilization.
The agitation against selective
draft Is 4 deliberate conspiracy to
thamstring a nation through sentimen'
tai and mawkish appeals. This ma
ton still harbors an active pro"Ger'
man alliance we'll supplied with cash
and hirelings who are making the
most of their sordid publicity.
Some one is paying the bill. 1t Is
time the government was empowered
to curtail all propa ganda which has
for its object the retarding of enlist
ment
The nation is at war, but even in
the face of this condition millions
are being spent to lull the masses in
to a realization that this is to be
solely battle of silver bullets, a war
in which the only sinews demanded
is money.
Each mail brings to newspaper Of
fees, circulars opposing President
Wilson's policy Of CONSUMPTION which
is imperative as a means of national
defense.
"Four Lights" is the title Of the lat
est peace pamphlet to reach the edi
tors desk Its opening lines are typ
ical of tons of this literature mailed
daily to assist the German cause:
mo order of a President or Gov
ernor will persuade me or force me
to this business of killing"
Senator Gronna furnishes this
thunder" for the Women's Peace
Party:
@'Let me remind the Senate that we
are not the government, let me re-
mind you that Congress is not the
government; let me remind you that
the President of the United States
is not the government, but the
1O0,0O0,0OO of people are the sover
eign power of this country. Why do
we refuse to submit for their deci'
sion a question so important to the
future welfare of our people? Why
do we ignore their petitions, which
we have by the hundreds of thou
sands. asking us to avert war? The
European countries are today regret
ting that they precipitated war.
Their people are sick to death and
are wishing that they could find a
way to end 1t. Selfishness was the
cause of beginning this cruel, bloody
war in Europe; false national pride
prevents the ending of it."
The Women's Peace Party frankly
admits that its battle against war has
been lost and it as frankly admits
It will do all in its power to render
the nation helpless in this crisis.
Treason is too mild term for such
sentiments.

Heath Hen Almost Extinct.

People from all parts Of the United
States go to Martha's Vineyard to see
the heath hen. So says the state Or
nithologist, Prof. Edward Howe For
bush. He has just finished a 44-mlle
tramp on the island which he made
for the sake of learning the truth about
the survivors of this almost extinct and
valuable species, says the Boston Tran
script. Heath hens are cousins OF
prairie chickens. In Colonial times
they were so abundant east of the AL
leghenies that they were slaughtered
freely for eating, for they are one OF
the most toothsome Of all the birds up
on which men feed. Human and AMI
NAL enemies so destroyed them that
the last specimen on the mainland dis
appeared and there survived only a
little flock Of a few individuals on
Martha's Vineyard.

the road is hard, smooth, dustless, and
without any rutS or pockets, according
to Professor Gearhart.
Where there is q pocket in the road,
water will gather after every storm.
Oil works better on sandy soils than
on clay or heavy loans. Loan soils
may be helped by sprinkling a light
coating of sand over the oiled surface.
After the first year it is better to APP
ply from one-quurrer to one-third of a
gallon of Oil to each square yard OF
surface in the spring and the same
amount again in the fall.
For laying the dust on city streets,
oiling may be as economical and more
satisfactory than water, particularly
if the soil is sandy. When city streets
are oiled it is best to cover the cross
walks with dust or dirt so that they
will not be covered with oil. When
the oiling process is finished the dust
or dirt may be swept away. Surface
oiled streets are not satisfactory if the
soil is clay or loan, for the oily dust
blows about and is carried into build
ings and upon walks.

Early Indian as a Farmer.

The Indian farmer raised many
kinds of vegetables and was expert
menting with many others before the
advent of the European races. The
tomato, which is Of South American
origin, was on his list. Although he
did not have onions, he was gathering
many kinds of flower bulbs, such as
lilies, and using them in soups. The
Indian dietary included the greens
cooked with a piece Of fat meat. SUI
mac, sorrel, milkweed, yellow dock and
dandelion were also on his menu. He
was gathering mushrooms and puff
balls and other fungi. In fact the In
dian was able at all times to give to
the strangers from beyond the great
water q revised lent. The Jerusalem
artichoke was an Indian discovery.
The peanut, which is now so plentiful
ly sold here, was considered a valu-
able food product by the Indians.

Shiranubi, Mystic Fire of Japan.

Shiranubi, the mystic fire Of Ariake
bay, Kyushu, has been famous for the
past 1000 years, the sight being con-
sidered one of the great wonders OF
the Japanese seas.
In the Taiyo magazine NJ. Kaneko re-
lates his impressions Of the fire. Ac-
cording to MI. Kaneko, the first light
appeared like q distant star about five
miles distant. Suddenly the volume OF
light increased until it soon covered an
area of many miles. The light moved
with the waves and resembled electric
lights being lighted and then suddenly
extinguished. Mr.. Kaneko says that
intermittent wavelike movements are
the chief characteristics of the mystic
fire. He fails to find q key to the or
lgin Of the fire.

MOISTURE FOR ROAD MAKING
There Is Certain Water Content at
Which Soil Packs Hard-Remove
All Grass and Weeds.

Road making is largely a matter of
moisture control. When soil contains
too much water it becomes mud, and
when it has too little moisture it be-
comes dust. But there is a certain
moisture content at which soil packs
hard. And this is just about the
amount Of moisture that a soil will
hold readily. This usually can be
maintained in a road that has good
drainage, that is well crowned so the
water will run of when it rains and
that is free from grass and weeds.
These if allowed to grow, will soon
draw the moisture out of the soil and
so remove the binding material.
