make good "eats" but are not
much as fighting ration, says
today's bulletin from the Ma
tional War Garden Commits
sion of Washington.
The backbone garden crops,
which simply must be produced
in large quantities this year,
are potatoes, lima beans, snap
beans. sweet corn, tomatoes,
cabbage and onions. Of course,
the other crops must not be
neglected, but they should
give right of way to the main
group and be grown as secon-
Diary ones in between the 9TH
ers, if land is scarce. BY good
planning such crops as early
spinach, lettuce, radishes, beets
carrots and turnips may be
planted between the staple
crops and be out of the way
before the main crops need all
the ground. In succession
planting, especially from mid
summer on, these secondary
crops should be planted after
the main crops mature and are
removed because, these will
mature sufficiently for immedl-
ate use or for canning or stor-
| ing.
Aside from the satisfaction
of having a winter garden on
the pantry shelf and in the
storage room these large crops
of homegrown and home-con-
Isumed staple crops will help
solve the problem of freight
congestion and release the
commercial crops of staples for
shipment to our soldiers and
allies abroad.
Partisanship is alright in its
place but lot of people feel
that as far as the United States
lis concerned its place just now
lis on the shelf.

NhE causes leading to the recent over
turn in the German government are
- we'll worth more careful eXanil~
nation than has been possible from
the cable dispatches The latest German
newspapers to arrive in this country arc
full of signs of the crisis then impending
The storm was already gathering about
Hcrtling's head, and its rumblings were
drawing distinctly nearer every day
The Main Committee of the Rcichstag had
been called to meet September "a and two
days before that the "Bcrlincr Neucstc
Nachrichten," a Conservative organ, printed
a leading editorial under the caption,
"Crisis Week.; and Georg Bernhard wrote:
Next week will be of quite extraordinary
Importance for the future destiny of the
German Empire" But the "Germana," the
leading Catholic organ, denied that there
when the other newspapers were busily
dealing out news and views about it,
Yct as early as September 8 the news
papers printed a rumor emanatng from
Vienna about German Cabinet crisis.
These reports connected with visit
OF Won Hintze, the German Foreign Secre-
tary, TO Vienna. and his trip Immediately
afterward to tho army headquarters to
confer with the Kaiser and Hndenburg
oA cfr
them. The rumors took even then t.

breakdown OF the great German offensive

and out of this disilusonment was born
the consciousness of the fact that Hert-
lings government had not ripcned any pc
litical fruit it. had not been able TO ad-
vance politically even to take reac-
tionary course. The paper argued that
things could not go as hitherto; clarity
in the situation and room for action were
needed the will Of Germany to make a
peace by understanding must be placed be-
yond all question. and the people at home
must have the assurance that the German
state really belonged to them. 1t was not

to free tho civil government from militar
ism as embodied in the General Staff.
With still greater distinctncss stands
out the fact that the change made in
order to promote peace. The "Berliner
Tageblatt" interpreted the demand for u
change to mean that the people had
reached the conclusion that only n par
liamcntnry government would be able to
bring peace nearer and the Social
lists and Progressives were convinced that
Hertling would not be able to make peace.
And Baron Won Richthofen, leader of the
erals, argued in public speech that only
government chosen from the membership
of the Rcichstag and representing the will
of the nation would prove able to carry
Germany through its present difficulties.
Georg Bernhard argued that the new gov
ornment whether for making peace or for
continuing tho war, must have it's roots in
the broad masses of the people. and "the
stress Of the hour compcls us without de-
lay to transform the whole system of gov
crnmcnt"
1t seemed to be assumed on all sides that
government of such character could
only be organized with the cooperation Of
the Socialists. A few days before the
meeting Of the Main Committee the Ger
mania" took the ground that one or more
Socialists should be taken into the Cabi-
net; and the staid old "Colognc Gazette"
New-York tribune., 1918-10-20

This is found in the "Ulk," an illustrated
comic weekly supplement of the "Berliner
fageblatt.' That big daily has never been
regarded as particularly friendly to Will
helm III. but rather az decidedly cool; vet
the "Ulk' printed poem, called forth by
the Kaiser's recent speech at Krupp's
works, the burden of which was that he
spoke man of the people to the peo-
pie, rs brother in a brotherly tone The
overturn in the government, to all appear
ances, was not aimed at Wilhelm II per-
sonaIly.
Also, there is still considerable amount
Of stiff talk too, about Germanys pros
poets OF keeping up the fight if the new
government should not prove able to make
peace. AS late September 21 the Frank
furter Zeitung" vas still looking forward
to the time when Lloyd George, Clemcn-
ceau and Wilson should see that "it is
simply impossible to beat Germany to the
ground" "The German 'front.'" it added,
'is as firmly anchored as ever; let the
enemy come on, our brave soldiers arc
ready to send him back with a bloody
head"
Inv ohSi@' correspondence ol tne ISa~
tional Liberals, too, argued that Germany
was still able to "establish victorously its
war aims programme in harmony with
Germany's life necessities" 1t added this:
LET us not be fooled by the jublation Of
our foes over their victories. However
the enemy statesmen may swim upon a sea
Of phrases, we know that they shudder at
the thought Of another winter of war"
Scheidemann also contemplated "thc organ
ization OF the national defence, the mobili-
zation Of our forces to the last man, the
devotion of our last breath in defence of
the homeland'
