Trial of Russian War Minis

AMSTERDAM, Sept 6.--In an In

Great prominence has been given
in the German press recently to tes-

importance. They are calculated COM

THE moment at which these dis

Of the American reply to the pope's
note urging peace. In secretary Lam

is described as an irresponsible gov

opportunity again to express to your

GERMANY NOW FACES

Long Drought Continues Women
Running Farms.

LONDON, June 19.-Dispatches from
Amsterdam sa" that sic Dutch news
paper Ribe StiftstIG"1de. Nhk.h
throughout the war has been VOL
informed on German matters. prints
an article on the crop outlook in Ger
many predicting almost complete
crop failure.
The newspaper declares that the
yield this year will be far less than
Germany ever knew. 1t explains that
an unprecedented long drought in
Germany is continuing. The drought
has ruined the grass and greatly re-
duced the possible yield OF grains and
vegetables even II normal conditions
prevailed.
But, the article says. conditions are
worse than ever before because the
farming is done largely by women
and prisoners, and the blowing shall
low and poorly done. Commercial
fertilizers are lacking entirely. and
natural fertilizers are proving worth
less because the live stock was fed
Improperly.
The sowing, too. was late. partly
because OF the late spring. partly
because OF the lack OF labor. and It
was badly done because OF the I'M
skilled labor. In northern Prussia
the sowing has not cor menced,
which f. equivalent TO assurance that
there will be almost no crop.
In many provinces the grass is en-
tireiy withered, and the turnips. an
important vegetable, are devastated
by weeds, insects, and drought.
