WHAT VIKINGS FRENCH HEART

Agricultural loss is not confined 10

factors which war has largely eiimi-
mated human labor and chemical Ter
nllzation. Indeed, the spectacular fea-
tures Of agricultural destruction In the

barbed wire trailing like some rusty
snake across the fields. even the frult
trees cut down to the level Of the soil
look less sinister to the French eye
than the miles and miles, the thou
sands and thousands Of acres OF rieh
and beet sugar land untouched
by fire and sword, yet grown waist
high with the thistles, brambles and
every other sort Of pestilentisl weed

mistletoe. Before the war q French
farmer was hailed into court by his
neighhors and fined for allowing this

Bank Resnonkihle for Error.

An interesting decision has been
made by the Missouri court OF appeals,
relative to holding the sender OF q
telegram responsible for a mistake In
transmission. A Wyoming bank tele-
graphed a brokerage house. offering a
carload of potatoes at $1.35 a hundred
pounds. The telegraph %company's mis-
take In transmission made the price 30
cents a hundred. The supposed offer
was accepted by the brokers and the
potatoes were shipped. When payment
was rendered at the rate of 80 cents a
hundred the Wyoming bank refused to
accept the money and brought suit
for the full amount. The Missouri
court of appeals ruled that the bank
had made the telegraph company its
agent In forwarding the telegram and
that as the brokerage house acted in
good faith II could not be compelled to
pay more than the amount quoted In
the message.

HE GOT THE RING FIRST
Young Mar Prepared for Wedding and
Did Not Worry About the
Girl.

Cleveland, O.-Here's a young man
who believes in the efficacy Of pre-
paredness.
With his young wife he appeared
recently before Frank NJ. Kenney,
chief clerk of local board No. Z at
Central armory.
"When did you buy the ring2" Mr..
Kenney asked.
There was some discrepancy be-
tween the answers of the bride and
the bridegroom and the clerk pressed
for an explanation.
swell, I'll tell you the TRUTH" the
mar replied. "Sone years ago l bought
a watch on the installment plan and
when 1t was paid for l thought the
idea was a pretty good me-. 1 figured
to myself that some day l might want
TO get married, and thought 1t wouldn't
be a bad idea to get the ring on the
same plan"
"You mean you got the ring and
kept it in YOU pocket until the right
girl happened alongT" Mr.. Kenney In
quired.
'That's just 1t. mister" the youth re-
piled, unabashed. This is the right
girl and we's just got married"

OUGHT
TO BE A LAW"

Oregon was the first state to enact
the Initiative and Referendum and 1t
has enacted more laws by the people
and by the legislature than n other
state.
No one can honestly say that the
state has prospered or profited by its
deluge of legislation and of late years
the people have been voting down
nearly everything.
But the belief in legislation and
regulation is still very strong in many
of the western states and a powerful
factor in %hindering the development
of some.
Speaking of the difficulties exper-
fenced in getting the insurance bust
ness of the state upon a sound basis.
ii has been said:
I'm America today the most COM
mon phrase is There Ought to be a
Law If the cook wants to quit, if
the sheets on the bed in the hotel are
too long-or anything you get angry
over-the average American repeats
the formula there ought to be a law
and every two years he turns his
eyes hopefully toward the biennial
calamity known as the halls of mis-
legislation and chants in unison with
his fellow citizens the s%hibboleth,
there ought to be a law"
Under the double system of law
making-direct legislation by the peo-
pie and indi! ect by their representa-
tives in the iegislature-wnat cannot
be put over IN one way is attempted
by the other.
BY skillfull flattery a class of poll
ticians say to the people, "the legisla-
ture will not give you justice, take
the law-making power into your own
hands" or go to the legislature and
try to put over what the people have
rejected.

"Germ.Proofn Money.

To a bank in Spokane. Wash, be-
longs the distinction Of circulating the
first antiseptic germ-proof national
bank notes. The United States treas
ury is still experimenting with devices
to laundry dirty bank notes to bright
crisp ones, but the Spokane bank has
the first sanitary money on record.
Fifty thousand dollars in bills, put out
by the bank, were signed with an ink
said to consist largely Of carbollc acid.
The result is the bills are saturated
with an agency which means death to
the most vigorous germ who'd live
there.

POWER BEHIND
THE NATION

In an address before the editorial
convention held in the east it was
shown that at least 60 per cent Of the
American people are served by the
country papers and smaller dailies.
The smaller newspapers constitute
the real driving force and police pow
err of 600 million of the American
people-more than half of the people
of the United States read the smaller
papers.
The farmers, the men and the wom-
en- who feed the nation and a great
part of the rest of the world-the
thinking, influential Americans who
do not live in the big cities, read the
country weekly and small dailies.
While the city dweller in flats and
apartments spend their money on the
canned goods and picture shows, the
readers of the country papers are
the great buying class, from farm
tractors to jewelry.
The advertising value and politi- dl
power of the smaller newspapers are
not fully understood by the great
business interests and craftsmanship
of the nation, and still less a~ppreciat-
ed.

ITALY LIKES BASEBALL
Most Recent Victim of National
Pastime Germ.
Football Popular as Well as Diamond
Sport-Favored by Military
Leaders.

New York.-One of the curious ef-
fects of the wal is the international
interest which has been aroused in
American sports. Italy apparently is
the most recent victim of the baseball
germ, according to DR.. Felice Ferrero,
director Of the Italian bureau of In
formation In this city.
Football, as played in America, as
well as the national game of this coun-
try, also has taken hold of the popular
interest in Italy. The Gazetta dello
Sport, one of the most influential sport
journals of that country, Is raising a
fund for the purchase of ~baseballs,
bats and footballs and the distribu-
ton of prizes among the soldiers to
stimulate competition.
General Pennella, commander of the
Second Italian army, in a letter to the
Gazetta dello Sport, says that football
and baseball games are of inestimable
value In the training for war;. He
praises the initiative of the GaZetta
dello Sport and says that he firmly be-
lieves that the stimulation of baseball
and football competition among the
various units of the Italian army will
have the most gratifying and impor-
tant results In maintaining the morale
pecially pleased with baseball as an
aid to training and the maintenance of
the morale of the troops.
