MORE OF THE kAIsER'S PLANS

The kaiser had it all fixed to assess
the United States fifty billion dollars
after he had whipped England and
France and the other Allies. 1t has
just now leaked out that he proposed
to make this country pay the ex-
penses of the war. In an article in
the New York, World, Mr.. Henry
Morganthau, former minister to Tur-
key, when referring to our taxes and
other expenses of the war, says if the
Allies were defeated the humbling
and crippling Of the United States
would be the next step.
''Thcy had made billions out Of the
war; why not take it away from them
and put the German empire back on
its fcct?" is the way the Germans
looked at it.
The New York World in comment
!ng upon Mr.. Morganthau's state
ment, says that it has been known
that the kaiser proposed to conquer
the United States after he had finish
ed with the rest of the world and
make US pay all Gcrmany's war costs,
but this is the first statement of the
exact amount the Kaiser had expect
ed to collect from us.

Of President Wilson:
"The history Of America since we
entered the war shows that Wood
row Wilson has the wisdom Of Jeffer-
son, the firmness Of Jackson, the pa
ticnce Of Lincoln and the strength of
Cleveland. And then the man is alb.
solutely devoid of buster. He does
a great thing with such ease that
your thoughtless man is let to think it
is a small thing. The history Of our
beloved country shows that there is
a good genius that has in its keeping
our great people, and in this most
critical pinch that spirit, if may call
it that, provided Woodrow Wilson to
lead us.

GROW SpUDS FROM Feelings

The high cost of seed potatoes for
planting is going to be one of the
problems of the home gardener and
farmer this spring.
Under farm conditions there Is no
doubt that reasonably good seed will
have to be used, but there are many
cases in towns or in the home gardens
on the farm where, if it necessary,
the bill for seed potatoes can be ELI
minated by using small potatoes or
potato peelings.
The smaller the seed piece the finer
must be the condition of the soil, in
order that the little plant may es-
tablish itself at once. If peel
ings are planted they should be fresh
and the eyes should be cut little
deeper tlan the rest of the peeling.
Housewives may cut out the eyes in
a conical shape using spoon and
then may peel and use the rest of the
potato. Such eyes may be kept for a
little while if not allowed to dry out.
Plant the rows thick and if too
many come up they may be thinned.
The use of peelings or small pieces
has more chance of producing good
results if late potatoes rather than
early ones are planted.

AN EVENTFUL WEEK.

Since the last issue of the Pioneer
some very eventful things have hap
pened in the world. Foremost of
which perhaps is the overthrow Of
the monarchal form of government in
Russia by the revolutionists. Gar
Nicholas abdicated, aud while the
revolutionists were about it, they
cleaned house thoroughly, and the
house of Romanoff who have reigned
over Russia for the past 400 years was
shorn of all power in Russia. A new
government is being organized there
and it will probably be republic in
the future.
The Germans have sent three or
four more American ships to the bot
tom of the ocean during the week,
and several more Americans have lost
their lives. 1t is admitted, that as a
result of these overt acts, that state
of war practically exists between the
United States and Germany. There
has been nc formal declaration of war
by this country, as Congress is the
only body in this Republic who have
the power to declare war, and they
will not convene until the 10th of
April. But in view of the events Of
the past week, it is believed in some
quarters that President Wilson will
call Congress to meet even at an earl
ier date to handle the crises that now
con.ronts this country. The prepera'
tion for war is being pushed by all
departments of the government.
Secretary Daniels OF the navy has
been authorized to expend Sll5,O0O,,
600 for new ships, and all ship build
ing yards are now working night and
day.
In the great world war the allies
seem to be making several successful
drives, gaining ground daily.
Among the history making events
in the United States was the supreme
court decision on the Adamson law
the court holding that law to be con
stitutional. 4 great railroad strike
was called by the brotherhoods to &c
into effect commencing Saturday
night last, but the difficulty was set
tied at the elventh hour and the tie ur
of the. railroads of this country was
again averted.

Sunday by Mr. and Mrs. L. M. Krell.
They do say, and told We scribe so,
that Mrs. Krell is some fine cook, and
that they sure did justice to a fine
meal.
All of our people in this locality
were wise in putting up enough hay
for their stock last fall and as result
we do not know of any loss suffered
by them in this long and hard winter
All stock is in fine condition and will
sure make good showing this spring
on this famous salt grass.
At our Sunday school last Sunday
it was decided to hold an Easter pro-
gram and have a day Of rejoicing and
good fellowship. The ladies decided
to bring their dinners and so provide
time enough for Sunday school and
the program in the afternoon. A
cordial invitation is extended to all
good people to meet with us ON this
day. We are but small struggling
little band of humble followers of
our Lord Jesus and while we might
fall short in hundreds of ways. if we
can do but right just once we will
have gained just that much in His
name.
