able to buy because the farmer
does not spend. ''Live and let
live" should not only be the mot
to of every farmer, but of men
in all pursuits. The farmer to-
day can buy twice as much with
a hog, a steer, a bushel of wheat,
a bushel of corn, a dozen chick
ems or even a dozen eggs as he
could two years ago. 1t is true
that prices of most every thing
else have gone up, but there is
not one article in a hundred
which has advanced half as much
as what is raised on the farm, so
the farmer can afford to buy
more than he ever did the ad-
vanced prices and still have more
money left>from what he has to
sell. It is up to the farmer not
only to raise all he can, but to
keep the wheels of industry 60
ing by liberal buying. We are
on the eve of the greatest pros
perity the nation has enjoyed if
we do not spoil it by false econ.

United States and Ger
many.

We learn that there is acute
disappointment in Germany with
the failure-the German Naval
Office calls it the slow progress
of the submarine campaign.
Germany declared for ruthless
submarine warfare last Janual y
under the firm belief that the
submarines would be able prac,
tically to close the sea to Great
Britain. The favorite phrase ON
the street was that two or three
months" would be all that wou }
be necessary 70 force Great Bri
tain and France to make terms
Doubtless the Admiralty knew
that that time was insufficient.
but there is no reason to doubl
that expert opinion in German Y

bilities of ruthless submarine

are being pressed upon the Ger
man people that the only thing
accomplished by the change has,
been to bring the United States,
with resources greatly larger
than those of Russia, into the
war.
1t is easy to believe the dis
patches from Denmark that the
serious menace to Germany in
the action of the United States
is beginning to be understood all
over Germany, and in this con-
nection we are told that many
German officials are asking what
would be the effect on the Unit
ed States if Germany formally
abandoned its present method of
submarine warfare.
Such a policy would not change
the attitude of the United States
in any respect. This country
has now enlisted for the war.
Germany promised last summer
to abandon ruthless submarine
warfare; she broke her promise
this country is now in the wal
and we can accept no promise
from the men who have shown
that they cannot be trusted

SerVic. for Farm Boys.

The farm herd of swine offers
a splendid opportunity for farm
boys to help their country. Too
young to enlist in the Army or
Navy, too small to stand up un-
der the hard work of a farm
hand, they can help to win the
war by taking over responsibility
for lighter work, and so relieve
men for the harder work. By
taking charge of the hogs on the
farms boys will be helping to
solve the farm-labor problem,
They will be helping to pr odnce
a very important food for the
men in the Army and Navy.
Boys taking charge of the
farm herd should join a pig club.
Pig-club members have already
proved their ability as hog rails
ers. They can extend their
work. A member of the pig
club receives valuable instruc-
tons from trained and experinc-
ed leaders. A pig. club member
publicly enlists as a junior sol
der of the commissary." Faith
ers will have more faith in their
boys if they are pig-club mem
bers, and will be reader to make
them partners and put them in
charge of the farm herd. A pig
club boy means business. He
keeps records and knows just
what it costs to produce a pound
of pork. Records help to correct
mistakes. They make raising
hogs a business proposition.
A boy can do much with the
farm herd. Very little work
willtbe needed that he can not
do. With such careful attention
as a boy gives, the pigs thrive
better. Sanitation is improved
and diseases lessened. The in,
structions TO pig club members
are valuable and practical and
help to produce more profits.
Boys wishing to join pig club
and take charge of the farm herd
should see the county agents, o.
write to their State colleges Of
agriculture, or the United State
Department of Agriculture.

False EcOnOmx

COuuCry WHEN rlglu economy Will
be fraught with more injury to
the general welfare, and when
reasonable and normal expendi-
ture would do it more good.
False economy at this time (that
is, the idea of saving and hoard
ing) will paraIyze nearly all
kinds of business and bring
about a national catastrophe in
the way of stagnation in all lines
of business. En- gland and
France were seriously injured
during the first two years of the
war by not doing exactly what
the tendency in this country is to
do now.
England and France have now
seen the great mistake and bus
inesses of all kinds are better in
these two countries than they
were before the war begun.
This change in England and
France has resulted rom the fact
that the rich class of people in
these two nations have been re-
Iquired to bear the burden of the
war in putting up the money,
and the money has been expend-
ed by these governments in a
way that the poorer class of peo-
pie have more money than they
ever had before.
People are looking at the sit
uation in the United States from
a wrong angle if they are antic-
Eipating hard times. The gov
eminent alone is going to eX-
pend, which will be largely con-
tributed from wealth, in the
next year $1,000, 100000. 1t is
hard to estimate how much mon
ey this is. 1t will be a stream of
gold so stupendous that it is i'm
possible to calculate. In addi-
zion to this there will be 2,000,-
100000 more which the Allies
will spend in the United States
for food supplies, manufactured
articles and munitions. All of
this will, of course, make prices
high, but at the same time will
make money cheap out of it's
great abundance. Every branch
of industry will get its share out
of it and there will be even
greater prosperity than the Unit
ed States enjoyed from 1867 to
1873.
We would advise people to go
ahead and buy what they want
if they have the money to pay
for it, to prevent the stagnation
which came to England and
France by false economy.
This advice is particularly ap-
plicable to the farming class.
They are absolutely assured of
from twice to three times as
much money from what they
raise this year as they ever re-
ceived before, and under reason
able weather conditions they will
raise twice as much as they ev-
er have done in one year.

Had Hidden ROmances

Mrs. Frances Bennett Dougherty, Of
sol West 13Sth Street, says that she
has learned many things since Theo-
dore Dougherty, a ship broker, sued
her for a divorce. Among the newly
discovered information on which she
asked yesterday that the suit against
her be halted to enable her to bring a
counter action for divorce is her hus-
bands alleged friendship for several
other women. His wife always thought
he was a woman hater.
Mrs. Dougherty has had detectives
making an investigation since she heard
about a suit which Oscar Hurley
brought in New Jersey against Theo-
dore Dougherty and "his wife, Ruby
Dougherty."
Mrs. Dougherty's investigation also
produced the allegation that while her
husband was away from their home, at
676 Riverside Drive, ostensibly on bust
ness, he was maintaining an apartment
at Seventh Avenue and Fifty-fourth
Street, where a woman known as Mrs.
Ruby Buchanan Dougherty was the
hostess.
Mrs. Dougherty also mentioned Helen

Washington, Feb. 6.-An attempt 10
force public discussion in the Senate of
the Grayson nomination was thwarted
by the Administration to-day. Senator
Poindexter, Of Washington, Republican
member of the Naval Affairs Commit
tee. began to discuss the qualifications
of the Presidents physician to be medl-
cal director Of the navy, with the rank
of rear admiral. Within a few minutes
Senator Pittman, Democratic member
of the committee, demanded an execu-
tive session, which was seconded by
half dozen Democratic Senators.
Senator Poindexter charged sharp
practice on this, as he had yielded TO
Senator Pittman for question. Vice
President Marshall, however, upheld
Mr.. Pittman's right TO take this action.
Thereupon the Senate entered into
debate behind closed doors, which lasted
for more than five hours. senator
Weeks, of Massachusetts, spoke for
more than two hours of this time.
