BUENOS AYRES. Sept. IS -
Troops patrOlled the streets today
10 prevent further anti-German
demonstrations and 10 protect Ger
man property. An armed guard has
been placed around the German
and Swedish legations
Feeling has been aroused to fever
pitch by the disclosures of Sec'y
Lansing showing that the German
charge d'affaires was sending un-
neutral messages to Berlin through
the Swedish legation giving instruc-
tons as to the summarizing of Ar
gentine shipping. The disorders
which began when il was learned
that the German envoy. Count Lux
burg, had been dismissed continued
far into the night and il was not
until the government took strong
measures that the crowd dispersed.
1t was learned from an aUthOrita-
tive source that the Argentine gov
eminent would send a sharp note
70 Berlin demanding disavowal Of
Count Luxburgs actions and other
amends. If a favorable answer is
not forthcoming relations between
this country and Germany may be
broken off.
Hundreds of thousands Of dol
lars worth of German property has
been destroyed and many persons
were injured in street rioting.

THE PUBLIC FORUM
DRY CHICAGO DAY.-Seven hun

dred churches of Chicago have been
asked to cooperate in Dry Chicago
day. Sunday, March Is. 1t is expect
ed that most of the churches will
respond to the invitation, although
there are some Chicago churches
which absolutely refuse to have any
thing to do with the dry movement.
Workers cards for enlistment will
be circulated in all of the churches
participating in Dry Chicago day.
Opportunity will be given for work
eTs to become captains OF precincts,
OYerseers Of blocks, to give address
es, furnish automobiles, contribute
musical talent or volunteer for office
work. 1t is expected that at least
10000 workers will enlist on Dry
Chicago day.
The liquor forces are alive to their
danger; they are trying in every way
possible to Offset the work Of the
Dry Chicago Federation.
A bill has been voted cut of the
judiciary committee Of the city cOUn-
Gil which will commit, if passed, the
city council to an endorsement OF
proposed state law, giving the city
power to license, regulate, control
and prohibit on all days of the week,
including Sunday, the manufacture
and sale of all liquors. This bill, if
passed, would take the saloon out of
the control Of the state legislature
and put it entirely in the hands Of a
city, village or incorporated town.
The evident purpose is to open up
the saloons Of Chicago on Sunday.
The Dry Chicago Federation will op-
pose the passage of this bill because
Of its iniquitOUs provisions.
The question is often asked, What
will become of the Dry Chicago Fed
Grafton if the state referendum bill
is passed." The referendum bill will
provide for a statewide vote on the
saloon question in the fall of 1918.

WHAT'S THE USE?-Our friend,
Alfred BeiTly, says we should petition
Wilson to stop the commission men
from holding up fOodstuffs; also rail-
roads for keeping them in their box
cars too long, l think we should pc
titiOn the supreme judges; then we
would get to the right power.
It seems to me that when congress
puts a bill through, the high money
powers will find a IOophOle, where
upon they will take it before the SUI
preme court and wait II months be-
fore action is taken. Then it is 10 to
1 the decision will be against the
workers.
Look at the railway workers s.
hour bill. 1t has been pending since
last summer and nobody knows
when they will give a decision. AS
the railroad brotherhood executives
say, they are waiting for a panic or
war. II say come out all in a bunch,
like they did in England, war or no
war, and let's have the thing settled
one way or the other. l hope they
will be Victorious. Thompson.

WOMAN FARMERS DOING WELL
Thousands Have Won Success in This
Country, as They Have In the
British Isles.

English women are not the only ones
who are hurrying into the farming
business, remarks a writer in the
Springfield (Mass.) Republican. Amer
lean women are turning in large num-
bers every year to stock raising, bee
raising and farming Of all sorts. When
the national beekeepers' association
had its last annual meeting in Phila-
delphia 1t was noticed that large
number of the members were women
and they took q pertinent part in the
discussions.
Western women are older hands at
the business. The Missouri Woman
tells US there are 5000 woman farm
ers in that state, and they are women
who farm intelligently, scientifically
and successfully. They study the bull
letins sent out by the state board Of
agriculture, they compete at the state
and country fairs-often they have
been quick to realize that cooperation
between city and country is of utmost
Importance to both.
The 1900 woman farmers OF Mis-
souri, make good profits in time Of
peace. In time Of war they could, very
likely, feed the entire state If all the
men farmers should be drafted into
military service. OF one example Of
efficient farm management" we read
that she has been making money annu-
ally on 200 acres in wheat and extern
sive stock raising; another raises hogs
under glass"-that is to say, she at
tracted wide attention q few years ago,
during a blizzard winter, when other
farmers were losing live stock BY
freezing, through resourcefully con-
verting her greenhouses into shelter.
Another Missouri woman farmer Is
widely recognized as an expert in fine
hogs. Her Berkshires have taken prizes
wherever shown and her corn exhibit
ed at San Francisco carried OF the CD
position gold medal.
