Washington. March G.--President
Wilson. having proclaimed to the
world in his second inaugural ad-
dress the principles that will guide
the UIited States II 1t becomes In
volved in the world war, Is consider
Ing what steps he will take to protect
Americans and American ships from
the German submarine menace. The
question Of arming American ships to
repel submarine attacks, notwith-
standing the failure Of Congress to
confer upon the President this spe-
cific authority. will be discussed and
possibly decided by President Wilson
and his cabinet. Attorney General
Gregory has given the President an
offhand opinion that the executive
possesses the authority In his own
right to supply American ships with
defensive armament and that the al
most forgotten statute Of 1919, provid-
Ing that American merchantmen might
defend themselves from attacks by
any vessels except the warships OF a
friendly power, creates no bar to the
provision Of defense against German
submarines. ~
Cabinet members contend that Ger
man submarines are now guilty OF pi-
ratical attacks on American ships,
whereas the statute OF 1919 contem-
plated that the warships Of friendly
powers would observe the rules Of
maritime warfare. The prohibition OF
defense against warships, therefore. is
said not to apply to German sub
marines.
Upon the decision Of the Cabinet on
the arming Of American merchantmen
will depend to large extent the Presi-
dents conclusion as to the necessity
Of calling an extra session OF Con-
gress. II the President decides to pro-
coed on his own authority he will be
disposed to postpone q summons OF
the new Congress pending his effort
to establish q cloture rule In the Sen
ate. preventing repetition Of the fill

OUT OF HOGS
On His Western Canadian Farm.


1t Is getting to be n long drawn out
story. the way that Western Canadian
farmers have made money. Many Of
them few years ago, came to the
country with little more than their
few household effects, probably n team
of horses and n cow or two, and suiii-
cicnt money to do them for few
months, until they got stnrt. Hum
dreds Of such can be pointed out, who
todny have splendid homes, well
equipped farms. the latest machinery
and an automobile. Here Is the case
Of A. z. Merriam. formerly Of Devils
Lake, N. d. He didn't leave there be-
cause the land was poor. or farming
not n success. for all who know that
country are aware that II Is an excel.
lent country. He wanted to expand.
to tnic advantage Of the cheap land
that Western Canada offers. And that
same story has appealed TO hundreds
of others who have had like success
with Mr.. Merriam. But his story. md
he signs II. too. Is:
II came to Alberta In the Spring OF
1909 from DEVILS Lake, North Dakota.
locating on my farm near Dalroy.
II arrived with six hend Of horses
and two head OF cattle and about
81 800. Since then. have increased
my live stock to seven head Of horses,
four hend Of cattle. and about one hun.
dred head Of hogs, f0ur-roomed

crensed my original capital at least
four times more since coming here.
"From the feeding Of hogs during
the last year. I hnd gross return Of

II first started grim farming. but
during the past four yenrs have made
hogs my speciality. md you may see
BY the foregoing statement for 1915
that have not done No badly.

per cent In value during the past few
years, now selling for from s25 to s35

Of the United States of a UNIQUE plan

At a recent function given by Mr..

turned over to the Red Cross chapter.
In speaking of the plan, Mrs. McCar-
thy said that so many feel guilty at
having little amusement when they
know that the nation is at war and
thousands are suffering, and that she
thought that even the wives and sis.
tiers of soldiers could enjoy them
selves with an easy conscience know
ing that they were also aiding suffer-
ing humanity.
Girls of Mt. Holyoke college have
decided to do their bit" in behalf
of the nation by going without but

expedient it is expected to save more
