A NEW WORLD

~ EFT a really new world
~ was the eKhortation OF
Premier Lloyd-George
in his response to a deputation
OF the English Labor Party at
ii conference on Wednesday.
81 firmly believe that what is
known as the afterFthe-war
settlement will be a settlement
that shall direct the destinies
Of all classes for generations to
come"
1t looks that way; the align
ment of nations, in the con-
flict which has come to involve
the eastern hemisphere. is that
of real democracy as against
autocracy. On one side are
the people; on the other is class
distinction. This has come to be
recognized in Great Britain; in
Russia it has brought an over
turn of the most complete abso-
lutism known to the modern
world as survival from the
past; even in Germany itself
it has its advocates.
And in this Transformation
the United States has taken
part as the foremost eXemplar.
The ideal of the purpose
which has. become universal is
found in our government of the
people and by the people. We
have stepped into our place in
the crisis; and it will be new
world" indeed that shall be
readjusted upon the ending of
the present war. We have
pointed the way.-BOston Post.

pledge to the extent of permit
ting England and France to
land troops at Salonika and to
send them across Greece to
Serbia's aid. Without that aid
Serbia was doomed. Greece's
refusal to fulfill her treaty
prompted the allies to insist.
They were finally given per-
mission to land at Salonika and
to establish base on Greek
soil. More than this has never
been asked of Greece though
the allies would have been JUS
titled in demanding that she

Greece to maintain an honest

BELGIUM AND GREECE

~ HOSE who have sought
VI to defend the violation
of Belgium's neutrality
by Germany have called atten-
ton to the violation of Greece's
neutrality by the allies, claim
ing there was as much justifi-
cation of the one as the other.
An investigation of the real
facts. however, does not bear
cut the claim.
There is as much difference
IN the TWO as there is difference
between treason and loyalty.
The invasion of Belgium by
Germany was the violation OF
= solemn pledge. The invasi-
or of Greece by the allies was
simply the enforcement of
pledge TO which Greece was a
subscriber but which she was
reluctant to redeem.
Before the big war began
five great powers entered into
a definite and formal promise
that Belgium should be a neu-
tral country, that all of the five
powers were barred from 60
ing to war with her. from max
ing an alliance with her or
from using her resources or
territory. There is no question
at all on these points. They
were universally understood.
Yet Germany, one OF the
powers entering into this
solemn agreement, deliberately
violated It on the plea Of neces-
sity. Their necessity was not
the necessity Of defending
their own country but what
they conceived the necessity
Of crushing France.
Consider the case of Greece
on the other hand. At the
suecessful conclusion Of Greece
and Serbia's war on Bulgaria,
they entered into a treaty OF al
lance for mutual protection
againsts Bulgaria. Serbia Is
cut off from a sea outlet by
Austria. However, by the al
lance with Greece she could

The United States should avoid
the mistakes made by the Euro

council of defense is seriously
considering asking congress to
prohibit the slaughter of female

predicted early in the year, when
the matter of similar legislation
was being discussed in general,
any law of this kind should con-
tain a provision for safeguarding
the farmer, who might not be in
a position to keep his surplus te-
male stock. In other words the
government should oblieate itself
to see that such stock is sold to
someone who does want It. Now

So much has been said and is
being said every day about the
f. ID shortage as a result of Am
eriCa'S entry into war and her
new obligations to feed her allies,
that it is quite impossible to say
anything new.
There is not a single thing that
can, by any process, be utilized
as food that can possibly be pro-
duced this year in sufficient guam
tity to meet the demand for it.
The best that can be done is to
produce the largest crop OF ev-
erythine that grows that the land
can be forced or humored into
growing.
1t is reerettable that it took this
crisis to make So many people
see the necessity of conserving
the breeding stock of our meat
animals. There was a really al
armine shortage of this stock be-
fore people recognized even the
possibility of our entering the
world war. The female stock
was being ruthlessly sacrificed.
Readers will recall that the Ma
tional Alfalfa Journal called at
tention to this tendency in the
December and January issues.
This journal was pretty severely
criticised in some quarters, too,
for urging conservation along this
line though in every case by
men who refused to comprehend
the full purport of the facts pub
lished. Now what is the situa-
ton? Agricultural experts, states
men, newspapers, publiCiStS- all

the country, while the deficiency
thus created has compelled the
packers TO draw heavily upon the
supply OF young steers that nor
mally and properly belong in the
feed lots.
This increased demand at mar
ket for light and medium steers
for slaughter has tended to drain
the country of such cattle until
the supply has become very scar,
ce in both range region and corn
belt.
Farmers and cattle breeders
have been forced to buy them at
the larger markets because they
could find them nowhere else.
This has brought them in direct
competition with the packers, and
owing to the relatively high pri-
Ces bid by the packers for young
steers fewer cattle than usual
have been going into the feed
lots.
In connection with these alarm
inc conditions President Wilson
has taken this problem up with
his cabinet, the senate and house
OF representatives, to devise ways
and means for the introduction
OF legislation to provide money
in the shape OF cattle loans to
finance and assist the farmers,
feeders and ranChmen and the
trade in general, to open avenues
to encourage them to embark in
the breeding of all live stock on a
more extensive scale, making ev-
cry effort to increase the supply
in the future. Otherwise, PreSi
dent Wilson answers US that roast
beef and beef steers will be a
luxury in this country before we
are one year older.
Live stock business men, farm
crS, feeders and ranchmen may
size up the situation from the
facts given you and former hgur-
eS and statistics furnished and
put two and tw) together, which
spells this result in substance that
in the states of Pennsylvania, In
diana, Iowa, Nebraska, Minneso-
ia, North and South Dakota there
is decrease of Is per cent as
compared with the last two years
at this particular time of the
number of cattle on full feed.
Therefore let me impress the
facts upon you, the opportunities
and avenues for making money
in the live stock business and in
all It's branches were never m re
promising and more evident for
future operations either in grow
ing live stock, breeding, or feed
ing the same for consumption.
The cattle industry is absolute
ly as safe as planting seed corn,

Jackson County Fair
A Grand Success

The Eleventh Annual Jackson
County Fair is over and kadoka
has reason to teel good over the
attendance received from the peo-
pie of the county The live stock
exhibit was exceptionally fine, as
were the Ladies and Children'S
departments, but the agricultural
end was very common and this
fact was due to the dry season.
Possibly had our tair been a Cou-
pie OF weeks later a mrCh better
display of agricultural products
could have been offered to the
visitors.
The program of sports were
good, the horse races being close
ones in most cases, and the ball
games ON each day were inter
eStln2. The two free attractions
pleased everyone, and we do not
hesitate in saying that the bicycle
act put on by Don and Mae Cor
don was certainly a thriller and
one OF the best of its kind ever
seen by the writer. The troupe
of Harris q Harris gave a very
entertaining program and were
up to the expectations OF the fair
management in every way. The
Cottonwood band furnished mus
iC on both days and the boys
have a band which their town
has a right to feel proud of.
Considering the tough weather
we were up against the last dav
of the fair the association is ex-
Ceedinly fortunate in not having
a larger deficit than there is, and
had the day been like the first
one, it would have easily paid
out
The Press desires to thank the
fair management and every per
son who assisted in the work,
and we trust that tor our next
fair we can have better weather
and you can look forward to a
good program
buying Liberty bonds, and even
more so, for their productive use
is almost an assured fact. The
prospective percentage OF profits
is largely in favor of the farmer,
which can only fail should a cal
amity strike this country.
Besides it will show patriotism
in the full sense of the word,
namely, producing live stock and
all farm products for the coming
war if called upon to do so.
