The Russian retirement in Eastern Galicia continues. There has been a noticeable slackening in the Austro-Ger- man advance north of the Dniester, where the Russians now are offering more spirit ed resistance but south of the river to the Carpathians the Teutonic forces are moving forward almost unimpeded.
 Around Tarnopol the AustIo-Ger, mans have met with stubborn resist ance from the Russians, but Prince Leopold's soldiers were able to en- large recent gains on the eastern banK of the Sereth. Between Trembowla and Skoromocze, south of Tarnopol, the Russians were forced to yield the crossings of the Sereth and Gniza riv- CTS on a front of about eight miles, ac- cording to Berlin. Southeast of Tar nopol, Petrograd reports the Austro- German attacks were repulsed.
 Russians Retire
 The Russians have retired to new positions southeast of Trembowla, but whether they also surrendered the crossings of the Sereth there, Petro- grad does not say. Btweeen CZortkov and thet Dniester, Russian cavalry has repelled Teutonic assaults and driven the attackers northwetstward toward Monasterzyska.
 South of the Dniester into the foot hills of the Carpathians the Russians are retiring eastward. Kolomea, about 50 miles northwest of Cztrno- vitz, capital of Bukowina, has been occupied by Bavarian and Austro-Hun- garian troops. The town is an i'm portant railway junction. An unoffi- cial report from Austrian sources says the Russians are evacuating Czerno- vitz.
 The advance of the Rumanians in the Suchitza valley northwest of Foe sani has resulted in the abandonment of that valley as far as the upper course of the Putna by the Austro- Germans The Rumanians have moN' ed their line forward seven and one half miles, gaining all their objectives and occupying 10 villages.
 More than 40 0additional prisoners and guns and war material were cap tured by the Rumanians.
 Will Continue War
 Except in Flanders and in Cham pagne there has been no infantry fighting on the western front. In Flanders the British took La Bassee but surrendered it later before a Ger man counter attaca. The German

President.s Mastery Note to Russia

The presidents note to the new gov.
eminent of Russia, in which he out
lines the war aims of the United
States. is largely an elaboration of his
former assertion that 1.-THE world must
be made safe for democracy" He
explains that the United States is not
seeking territorial expansion, indem-
nifty or reward Of any description. We
merely propose to do our part toward
breaking the power of Prussian au-
tocracy and intrigue which, if carried
to its logical conclusion, would menace
the safety Of all free peoples.
The president indicates that we are
in accord with allied opinion that moth
ing would be gained toward the sup
preston of autOcracy If the Balkans
and Turkey were permitted to become
the vassals Of Berlin. We propose to
bring about 'the indicated develop
ment Of all peoples" The president
very skillfully points out to Russia
how Germany is using socialists and
others now, to whom it was never even
tolerant before, in the hope of dictat-
ing the development Of Russia under
the guise Of separate but disastrous
peace at this time.

BUSINESS As USUAL LOANS TO FARMERS
Good Slogan, but Better One Is
Easily Suggested.
Country 10 In Splendid Position 20
Change II to "Bigger Business and
Better Business" IL All
Will Pull Together.

Frank A. Vanderlip, president of the
National City bank, sounds a warning
against the fallacy of business as
usual" but says digger business and
better business" is the proper slogan.
He issues warning. The war will
cause certain readjustment of bust
ness in the country. Some lines of
industry are developed by it tremen-
dously, others are injured. The lat
ter, Of course, are the manufactures Of
luxuries and nonessentials. These
doubtless will be hit severely, and
those engaged in them should have
the courage to face the new conditions.
MIR. Vanderbilt suggests that hum
dreds of thousands of workers tenn
porarily will be forced to change their
employment. He says there should be
no resistance to this process, no vol
untary unemployment merely because
the production of luxuries is curtailed.
IT tailor's cutter, for example, Is
out of work in his own trade, he should
not permit himself to remain idle when
"A SASSASAI Jul AZ u uuu1lAOuS AOS-
tory awaits him. The community
should see that he does not remain
idle.
The same process has been going
on in every nation involved in the war.
In the United States it should be less
marked than in Europe. There is ev-
cry prospect that the country Is facing
great wave of so-called "war pros
perity," provided the Industrial read
justment is accomplished painlessly.

General Cocktails and the shipping
board seem to have agreed fairly well
on program calling for large nun.
Der Of steel and comparatively small
number Of wooden vessels. General
Cocktails decision in favor of steel
ships and against the ambitious wood

ments that the latter would be made
mostly Of green lumber, would be
racked to pieces by the machinery and
would be Of no particular service after
the war. He further holds that the
steel ship construction program can
be carried out much more rapidly and
effectively.
AS he has record for performance
that inspires confidence in his judg-
ment and executive capacity, the gen.

Whole Country Behind President.

Never was peace-loving people SO
badgered, bullied, crowded and forced
into war without provocation on our
part or excuse on theirs as we have
been by the Teutonic autocracy.
With oil its calmness the presidents
address, which will stand as one of the
great papers Of history, stirred the
country profoundly from center to cir
conference and placed him ut its head
as its ordained leader and guide. We
have been longing for decision, cour-
ageous and outspoken, and for inspir-
ing leadership, without which no cause
can prevail, and he has given us both.
America can hold up her head in
the world today, and every true Amer
lean, whatever his politics or creed,
stands proudly and confidently behind
his president, who has made even the
many who were lukewarm and re-
luctant feel that peace was no longer
honorable or possible, and that we
are to put forth all our force, not only
to defend ourselves, but for the saliva
ton Of liberty and democracy the
world over.

West Indian Witch Doctors.

The West Indian witch doctor is q
delightful fellow in some respects, par.
ticularly when you do not come under
his power" There are few things
that he cannot do, or at least pretend
to be able to do, for he combines In
his person the office of priest, physl-
clan, and scientist. Some daring ruff
fans add Il still more romantic touch,
and lay claim to having personal con-
tact with the Evil One himself. Such
fellows are feared because Of the in
fluences they are credited with exer-
cising over the powers of darkness.
For instance, if you have an enemy
and who that lives under I: warm
sun has not?-the ObeOhman will put
him out of the way for you, provided
you pay him his price. This varies ac-
cording to your financial position and
the status of the man to be killed.

".And the flag was still therev"
Old, wizened, limping Jed Davis
made the welkin ring as he trudged
along the dusty road. He was no sing
er; his voice was cracked and creak-
ing, but there was patriotism in his
eye, finely flashing hope in his heart,
soul in the quivering strained tones.
he was not singing the "Star-Span-
gled Banner" as might have been sup
posed, but two-verse song set to q
familiar popular war melody, and each
verse ended up with the words, "And
the flag was still there" 1t was not
a paraphrase or parody on the ma
tons great song. 1t told briefly, but
briskly, of historical circumstances
where the Red, White and Blue had
been placed, and twas still there!''
Now Jed Davis had composed this
new song, "all by himself" Once, after
the Civil war, at reunion Of veterans,
he had written one that had been
sung by his indulgent comrades and
printed in the newspapers, and gave
him a great deal of importance. After
that his poetic instinct had slumbered
until the country called for volunteers
to join in the great world battle across
the ocean.
Jed had been the first to present
himself to the enlisting regulars at
the county seat.
cts true I'm old an crippled. but
I want to fight again." he quavered,
and with tender reverence he was told
that they could not accept him, and
old Jed went back home, a disappOint-
ed man.
"It's better that I went" he told
his granddaughter Ivy, a poor orphan
whose bright presence was the one
solace Of his old age. "Then you could
marry Elmer; he could carry the old
mortgaged place here and I'd be doing
my duty to my country"
"But, grandfather, Elmer will heed
the call to the flag, too, as soon as
they want him." reminded Ivy, ear

Spring Foods.

Spring Foods.
The Importance of teaching chill
dren to eat and enjoy vegetable food
is most important one for all moth
ers to consider. Vegetables add bulk
to the food, holding foods in such
manner that the digestive juices have
free access. Vegetables contain val
liable mineral matters which are in
estimably valuable to the growing
child, in fact indispensable. to good
body structure of bones and muscles.
The mineral matter keeps the blood
In good balance, supply elasticity to
the blood vessels and do many other
things to the functioning of the body.
The combination of spinach. carrots,
an onion or two with u little celery
all cooked together is most satisfac-
tory mixture containing the valuable
mineral salts essential to the young,
growing child. This may be given as
a PURGE, or finely chopped, seasoned
with butter or in chicken or mutton
broth as vegetable soup.
To remember that the mineral salts
are soluble in water Is q most vital
thing, as many cooks throw away the
water in which vegetables are cooked,
losing the very elements that make
vegetable food valuable. A little care
and thought should be given to the
cooking Of young, tender, succulent
vegetables, allowing them to cook in
Just water enough to keep them from
burning, and that water should then
De added to the seasonings in the form
IF sauce. If that method is not de-
sired, the liquid may be saved and
put into the soup pot, thus saving all
the mineral elements.
The cooking Of vegetables in a large
amount of water and throwing it way
Is a most reprehensible waste, and
one that should be most soundly con-
demned. One of the most important
beginnings in teaching children to eat
and like all kinds of vegetables is
that the parents should always par
take of them. Children as n rule can
not be forced into eating things that
are objectionable, and they have a
right to object If the head of the fam
lily does not eat them, for he is the
pattern and example which all chill
dren love to follow. If daddy eats
carrots and spinach it is comparative
ly easy to overcome any prejudice on
the part Of the children If they are
taught early enough.
The early green's that come first in
the spring are rich in iron and should
be eaten frequently. Spinach should
be cooked in as little water as p0ssi-
BILE, not to waste any of the precious
minerals.

Government Work That Requires
Speeding Up.
Would Mean Enormous Increase In
Nations Food Supply, Essential
Factor for Victory In War In
Which Country ls Engaged.

In line with the wise and needful
policy of taxing unimproved land held
for speculation into use for food pro-
duction is the work of stimulating and
aiding increased production by farm
loans.
The government has made u begin
ming Of the farn-loan policy by Gre
ating and organizing federal land
banks. There is u possibility of enor-
nous increases Of farm production in
the system of longtime loans to farm
ers which has been organized. Time
for the food campaign is pressing,
however, but the process of making
the loans is slow.
The report of President Danforth of
the Federal Land bank of st. Louis
shows slow progress in the work of
actually utilizing farm loans. There
are applications for $13,OO0,OO0 in
loans, but no loans have as yet been
made and the highest expectation of
Immediate loans after the appraisal of
lands is 100000.
Not only ought there to be avail
able for loans all the money required
by farmers to increase acreage under
cultivation and to make improvements,
but special effort should be made to
promote the organizing of farmers
loan associations. Organizers of as
sociations might be employed to ex-
cellent advantage. When the food sup.
ply is an essential factor for winning
victory in the war, no means or effort
should be spared to increase food pro-
duction.
If the government should apply ST.
OOOOOO.OOO within the next year to in
creasing cultivated farm acreage and
increasing productivity of improved
farms, the money would be we'll spent.
This SUN could easily be raised, with
double advantage, by taxes on land
values and surtaXes on unused lands.
