Soon after, he added, they sud denly changed front" and proposed prompt enactment.
 Senator PenrOse replied that at first many republicans were disposed to de- feat the bill, but finally agreed that as the government needed the money, it's prompt passage was desirable.
 During the debate there were re- publican predictions that an extra ses- sion of congress was inevitable.

OBy Review Leased wlrel

DENVER, Colo, Dec. 21.-District Judge John H. Denison late today granted a temporary injunction, re- straining the American Railway Ex- press company from delivering to con signees here 5000 packages of liquor, undelivered by the express company when the bone dry" prohibition law became effective, at midnight Mon day, December 16. The express com pany was granted ten days to perfect its application for a re-hearing.
 Judge Denison said he based his de- cision on the fact that the United States laws automatically follow the state laws under terms of the Webb Kenyon act.
 With the granting of the temper ary injunction, Judge Denison also overruled the demurrer which Percy Robinson, attorney for the express company, had filed. If the express company does not ask a re-hearing a permanent injunction will be issued December 30.

 It was von Eckhardt that Dr. Alfred Zimmerman, then German foreign secretary sent a message dated Janu- ary 19. 1917. through Count von Bern storfl. former German ambassador at Washingtno, proposing an alliance with Mexico and Japan to make war on the United States if the latter did not remain neutral.

WOMEN SUCCESSFUL AS
FARM WORKERS

That the employment Of women IN

the statement of Mrs. Laura Crane

Committee on Food Production of the

establish in Washington district

America.
Mrs. Burgess told of the expert

chester. The women volunteers
lived in tents and, under the direc-
ton Of supervisor, went out to work
at the request of the farmers. The
demand for their labor proved to be
far in excess of the supply The
fact that the farmers were not re-
CURED to pay for their help in bad
weather or drought, and the further
fact that the women were not quar-
tered on the farms to increase the
labor of the already overworked farm
ers' wives, were important elements
in The success Of the plan. 1.-THE
Bedford experiment has shown" Mrs.
Burgess said, that women can salts.
factorily do all kind of general farm
ing with very little supervision, while
the labor of girls and boys requires
SO much supervision that 80 per cent
of the farmers of New York State
have declared against their employ
ment"
Twenty States, according to Mrs.
Burgess, are either organized or in
the process of organization for the
formation Of woman farmer units. The
division is by counties, but the lab
or shortage is the controlling ele.
ment in the placement of camps.

Gen. Macarthur, asking him to put

to be purchased at low rate by the

THE IRISH POTATO,

NO fanciful about 1t Germany, sup

I, for one, think she owes more to the
Irish potato than she owes to the sue

In the past, a small crop has al

crop runs the price down, and the po'

some of them through plain pique'
Last year we had the greatest crop
in our history. According to prece'

year And il we do, the coming win

Get that. Food will win the war,
and there is no other article Of food
that may be prepared in so many
ways as the potato. Nor are there
many other food articles so rich in
nutrition as the potato. Prices this
year will not be low enough to cause
any worth while loss to growers, no
matter how many potatoes we pro-

They are going to be in demand.
Armies can live for a long time on

1t settles down to a matter, not Of

THIS SIDE OF THE TRENCHES

The Home Service Activity of the
Department Of Civilian Relief Of the
American Red Cross Is distributing
among the young peoples religious
societies a book entitled "This Side
of the Trenches" This book was

is designed to present the purposes
and ideals Of home service which the
American Red Cross is extending to
the families Of the thousands of our
soldiers and sailors" Six hundred
thousand copies have already been
distributed.
This Side Of the Trenches describes
some of the many things loneliness,
sickness, death, difficulty in manag-
ing household affairs, financial trou-
bles-which are constantly happening
to the families of soldiers and sailors
and which threaten seriously to affect
their security. To help these families
out Of such predicaments the Red
Cross has developed Home Service

Chapters throughout the United

hook "True victory in this war will
not be achieved until, in the democ-
racy for which we hope to make the
world safe, each family can develop
to the fullest physical, mental, and
spiritual life of which 1t Is capable.
