SANE PATRIOTISM

A little story comes from Fitch
eurg. Mass. of a man who had a
string Of flags fluttering above his
nrden- While the display was con-
sidered purely ornamental. the
nelghbors admired it, When the
man was heard to remark that the
fzap scared away the crows. they
made such serious objections that he
was obliged to take down the flags
end put up regular scarecrow.
All reverence is due the flag. But
doesn't this kind Of objection seem
rather overdone? The brightly flut-
tsring flags were just as beautiful
after they we're found to be useful
- before. 1t was just as patriotic
ally fitting that they fly above the
Wrden which was helping to win
me war. And If flags Of our coun-
try and Of our allies we're assisting
in the task Of warding off enemies
from our needed crops, were they not
doing q fine and appropriate service?
And why should 1t be more pa
triotic to take down the objects Of
grace and beauty and to put up in
their stead thing Of ugliness?
The flag is an emblem of our
sdeals. Why should 1t not be used
TO help us attain them?

Cultivation
IA the season advances aud the
cultivated crops become more ma
tarc cultivation should be shallow
ar At first the roots do not spread
very far ON the sides OF the plants,
but later many roots extend entirely
arross the rows and cover the space
between the rows, Al this time any
deep cultivation that breaks these
roots viii diminish the feeding oa-
pacity iust to that extent that the
roots are broken. So cultivate ligh-
ly but not less frequently for bcs,
results. This will apply equally to
cultivated field crops as II will to
garden crops,

SOLDIER LETTERS
France, June 5, 1918.

FRANCE, Juuc ., i'i''
Dear Father;
received your most welcome let
ter after very long delay in the
mail service.
Well. the big parade Is on over
here again, and the Yanks are show
ing up rather well and the French
are beginning to respect us as fight
ers.
was In a town near here few
days ago Just after the Yanks had
advanced at veuilly and Jaulgonne.
The French were so pleased that
they insisted upon filling me with
red wine which they love so well.
but to me II tastes like ossified vine
gar. and has very pronounced ef-
feet on my running gear; II simply
tangles ones legs all up. SO got
out Of town in hurried retreat and
left the frogs to wage the battle OF
Ntu tNoubC iOutt 1tAAas
The weather here has been hot
as the devil for several weeks. The
hay has all been cut and rye Is
nearly all ripe. think the land
here must yield about three crops a
year. for they surely cultivate It and
fertilize II to a finish. All the hay
and grain is cut by hand, In fact
the only modern farm implement
I've seen Is an American plow.
They work the mules with sort
of yoke fastened to the tongue Of
the cart; no breeching. tugs or back
pads at all, and usually the driver,
or coaxer rather. walks ahead Of the

the best Just after the mail has ar
rived, for then the country looks
brighter and the boys are all happy
and the French people look differ
ent to me, but when the mail is de-
layed month, feel as II were on
another planet and all the French
people sound like a,buneh of canni-
balls speaking to me. and whenever
one says Bon Jour" TO me, l gen.
orally tell him to go to hell. which
Of course he doesn't understand and
says American. I'll est une diabla.
I'll admit too that they are not all
huns. and there are some madamoi-
selles here also who are very petite
and bewitching, but in my mind they
don't compare with our American
girls.

Delay Is Indication That Next German Push Is to Be One of Great Magnitude and Fierce ness.

With the British Army in France, May 16.-The allies are still waiting for Field Marshal von Hindenburg to show his hand. No more magnificent weather could be imagined than has favored the western front in the last 48 hours. But the Germans continue to remain comparatively inactive in their sun-baked defenses.
 Notwithstanding this, there has been no relaxation of the tension which has existed along the front for many days. It is realized that the enemy may strike at any time.
 The delay is in itself an added indi- cation that the next German push is to be one of great magnitude and fierceness. This next battle may cas- fly be the crucial one, for the Ger mans undoubtedly will attempt once more to smash entirely through the allies lines
 If the Germans again fail to achieve their aim-and all along this front there is confidence that they will fail-the defending force will feel easy once more, for they believe that if the enemy cannot break through this time, he will have played his last high trump. If he is held again it will be the beginning of the end for the central powers, military experts say.

It is felt that with steadily growing man-power, the al- lies will be able to resume the offen- sive and reclaim the land overrun by the invaders Dependence is being placed out here on the help of the United States in delivering the finish ing blow. She holds the balance of power, and the prospects are being discussed eagerly throughout the length of the line. Everywhere there is the greatest confidence in America on the part of the allied officers and men.
