There must come a time soon when the United States will be forced to place an embargo on the expert of food stuffs a5 a necessary measure of self preservation. Quite likely serious difficulties between the United States and the allied nations would follow such a step even though it " re made plain that 1t was done only for the benefit of our own people. Perhaps President Wilson's continued efforts to bring about peace arc due treme measure and the resulting strained relations between our coun- try and the allies. To sum up, prices of food cannot go very much higher without an increase of wages all along the line. Such an increase in wages will not be given freely. A general strike alone could bring about that result. But the probable out come of general strike would be a paralysis of business with possible
 frightful conditions The other al- formative would be to keep our food at home by firm governmental action. This might involve us In difficulties with Great Britain, France, Italy. Russia. and Japan. From any view
 point the situation Is increasingly difficult So far as we are concerned the best solution would be cessation of fighting.

The news was printed in Saturdays Nugget that sam Blum, well known Naluez business man, had fallen from a wInuow and been killed. Opinion was dlvIded as to whether he tell ac- ciuentally or by intention. Ne know very little of the late Mir. Blum but we will venture this remark con- cernlng his demIse. We do not be. lieve he committed suicide because of business troubles as was hinted in the disaptch. We take 1t that he was a Jew and we never heard of a Jew who could not rise phoenix like from any business disaster We think he either did not commit suicide or if he did there was other than loss of money at the bottom of 1t.

But for our part, while we acknowledge that there may be honorable and agreeable Turks. we have looked on the alliance of the Turks with the central powers as the most unholy of alliances. We think that C. ermany. Austria and Bulgaria demeaned themselves In accepting aid
 from the unspeakable Turk. This horrible creature belongs in Asia or an even hotter place. and an oppor- tunity should never be given him to kill white man or rape a white wo- man. He should be confined ard c0n- trclled for all time by his suporiors. Of course war IS war and the allies are bringing up all sorts of saveges and semi .savages to fight on their s'de. But here are mono of them so degI aced as the average Turk. To Dc sure Turkey lies in the path which the Teuton considers his destined co.:se and the only bright spot in the outlook Is that the Germans may ca. ate and elevate the Turk for their onr advantage if nothing more. And it may be said that beneath his hes. tiality and savagery the unspeakahle rnp has many good qualities among N mch a1e courage and sense of hcnoi ln h lumber of ways.

Whenever intuition plant in this country blows up there is every req son to believe that a German did it. If two happen to go off within the same week then there is no doubt at all that a Teuton plot was at the bottom of 1t. This must necessar- fly be so because every fair-mlnded person knows that explosives wont explode without being forced to do 20. Somebody, and a German at that. has stood match in hand and touched of every plant that has thus far blown up. This canoat be otherwise because good portion of the press always yells German" whenever 1t happens. The powder. or high ex- plosive, would not, could not. turn loose on it's own account. Every one knows this. Coal dust will explode by spontaneous combustion. but nitro. glyceriae wont. Of course not. A pile of old rags in the corner of warehouse will start to burn without apparent cause. But the well trained explosives used in American muni- ticns factories would never make a mistake and go off prematurely. No Ch'aamen, no Swede, no American could set this stuff off either by ac- cide1t or design. Nobody but Ger. man could do 1t and German plo.ter at that

BABY WEEK

The Federated Clubs of Farming
ton have entered upon the work of
the National Baby Week, which they
are planning to celebrate in a moro
elaborate manner than they did last
year. With this end in view, they
have enlisted the interest and coop
Grafton of all the Women's organiza-
tions in the city, everyone of which
have expressed their willingness to
assist in this important work.
At a meeting held in the Public
Library, twelve women's organiza-
tions were represented by enthusias-
tic delegates and plans were discuss
ed and formulated, and committees
were appointed to begin work at
once Off this big undertaking. 1t is
hoped by this means to arouse the in
terest of every woman in Farming
ton, and of the men, also, to the i'm
mense Importance of the babies of
the community. Knowing that our
babies are the most valuable asset
of the community and that at least
ten per cent of the babies born in the
United States die within the first year
of life, we realize how important it is
that measures should be adopted for
the conservation of infant life.
The committee having charge Of the
program for Pennington will meet
again on April 16, after which date
they will announce the various fea-
lures which will be presented during
Baby Week, May to 6.

Came Back, for
Awhile, at Least

Rev. 0. H. Duggins, DR.. B. ]. Rob
inson, E. j. Mckinney and ]. P. Cayce
returned Saturday evening from Wis
its to the wonderful mining field
about Miami, Okla. They are
"inexpressibly full of what their
eyes beheld in that country. They
simply refuse to attempt a descrip-
tion of the riches that are being un-
earthed there, and that are in evidence
on every hand. They only say,
"go and see; there is no other way to
get so much as smattering idea of
what that field really is" Judging
from what they appear to want to
say, but do not say, it is certainly
some mineral field.
= nut we are delighted to have these
gentlemen back with us, where we
truly hope they will continue to re-
side, while their wealth piles up in
the Miami field at an amazing rate.
But, even though there may be mil
lions to be made in the Miami mining
fields, we can see no good reasons for
our citizens being Carried away" to
such an extent that they consider
moving there as at all essential to in
vesting money there. If the field JUS
titles an investment there, make it;
but why even consider moving ones
family from the best residence city
on the map to a mining town? The
better plan is to live in Pennington,
by means of mining interests held in
the Miami field.
