TOO MUCH WAR.

Our geographical location from the center of af-
fairs keeps from realization of just how much
this is affecting the eastern ccntcrs or how
absolutely all-absorhing topic IT is The
papers Of the largo cities indication Of how
interested the general reading public is in the mat
ter of news. Everything not of the greatest
importance has been pushed to the back round.
Column after column is devoted TO war news and
nothing but war news.
1t is question whether this is a desirable course
to pursue We must realize that the nation Is at
present facing the most serious international COM
plcation which il has been called upon to confront
Is II not better, however, to take our minds from
the horrors Of the present situation and 10y active
effort along some other line of pariotic cndcavor-
such as increasing the food production, or aiding
the Red Cross sOCietE-cndcs vor to do our part
without such concentration on one subject rs to
introduce a state Of monomt MIA. There have been
and will be plenty Of horrible happenings such as
the trapping of the Prssian guardsnen as detailed
by the Associated Press report, and the more VIC
can keep our minds at work for the welfare of
the country without brooding over these concom.

ton of the administration espionage

events relating to military policy or
defense. 1t retained sections giving
the postmaster general power to close
the mails to anarchistic or reasonable
publications. and giving the president
the right to impose an embargo

WEDNESDAY MORNING, APRIL IS, 1917.
THE NEW REGIMENT.

The regiment composed Of those too old to go
offers ample opportunity for those who desire to
serve their country and still are of such that
their service at home is of more Importance than
going to the front. Perhaps the office will lay
aside its usual red tape procedure and grant per-
mission without delay in order that the 900 acres
the military reserve may be seeded in time and
its produce turned to the government.
In this connection it might be well to support
the action taken by meeting of bankers and ag
ricultural leaders in North Dakota, who have petit
toned the government to recognize universal
lective CONSUMPTION that the hoy man who Is
trained in farm work and stays at home producing
the supplies needed by the mon at the front shall
be recognized performing just much of
patriotic duty the soldier sailor. Such REC
ignition would have the effect of increasing the
energy and enthusiasm of those whose real duty
lies in the potato and wheat fields.
Many people are apt to underestimate the value
of a move such as this and to pay too much atten-
ton to the enlistmcnts in the military branch of
service. The fact that the government is
erting every possible pressure and making every
appeal imaginable for increased crop production is
significant OF tn" importance attached to service
on the farm Therefore, this service is worthy of
recognition. No likes to be termed Stacker"
If the attains serious proportions; if the adj
of the allied armies and the effects Of the
blockade are not as great as we are being led to
believe, then everyone with a drop of patriotism
in his veins will desire to be registered as serving
his country in some capacity.
Secretary Richards of the chamber of commerce
is acting in the capacity Of recruiting sergeant for
the regiment. Everyone contemplating enlist
ment in this branch of the service is advised get
down the family hoe, rake and spade see that they
arc in good condition and after taking n few set
ting up exercises in his garden sign the roll
at the chamber of commerce. If you expert
farmer it might be we'll for you to make application
for commission in the regiment. In this war
those too Old to go" have q duty to perform and
this fact should not be overlooked.
