FARM IMPLEMENT REPAIRS
SHOULD BE ORDERED EARLY

Field and FARM
By ordering repairs for farm imple-
ments before the season really opens,
the farmers will aid in relieving the
badly congested centers. Even in nor
NAL times repairs are delayed several
days because of insufficient postoffice
and express facilities and the result is
that the armies waste valuable time
which could be used to better advant-
age in the field. This years condi-
tions are worse than ever before. At
any time, however, it is to the advant-
age of the farmer to repair his farm
machines early. 1t saves the farm
labor in the spring. There is no tedi-
Gus delay waiting for the parts nor
the time spent repairing when the
weather permits working in the fields.
Every day of good weather in the
spring should be utilized. Few break
downs will occur if the implemints are
repaired now while the farmers re-
member to some extent what repairs
are needed. If repairs are ordered
late, it occasionally means that they
must be ordered from the factory and

ABOUT BARLEY
FROM FIELD AND FARM

A lot of folks are becoming all en-
Unused up over the barley business.
Even the cowmen are coming to regard
il as an essential part of the dairy ra-
tiOns. 1t fills a place that nothing else
touches, and is so cheaply grown that
it is very enticing to the gang. This
Will be the one year to grow feed bar
ley The Colorado bran crop has al
ready run out through war manipula-
tions and will be shorter next winter
than it has been the present season.
Therefore we must provide suitable
substitute and there is nothing better
for this country than barley.
We like the improved white hulless
or bald barley, because it will grow up
to 5000 feet and answer for itself. It
natures in so or 30 days and is equal
to corn in feeding value. Most folks
however, are stuck on the California
bald barley. 1t makes good hay when
cut fully matured, and grain that will
equal corn in feeding qualities when
permitted to mature. It isvery hardy
and drouth resistant, often yielding so
to 60 bushels the acre on non-irrigated
lands where other grains would fail
completely. 1t is one of the sure grain
for the arid west, and win yield as
many bushels of corn in Kansas and
Nebraska.
There is also another whiskerless
barley, which is combination Of the
old California and the brewing varie-
ties which comes on very early, is a
great acquisition to ourl grain crops.
It will grow successfully on irrigated
and non-irrigated lands; in the noun
tains and on the plains.

figures take INTO consideration the

and other by-products are figured, the
amount becomes appalling. With the

something must be done against the

stalled at the Tate Gallery, London
The Exposition of the Talmud"
and Jews Mourning" The choice
of Rothenstein as a war painter
would obviously at first sight seem
odd, as pious and meditative art ap-
pears to be long way off from the
swiftness and confusion of war. The
choice has, however, been amply
justified.
There is now an exhibition of his
war paintings open in London at
the Goupil Gallery, and these give a
valuable record or testimony that
will not be duplicated by any other
artist. In his foreword he says: 81
felt as pilgrim visiting sacred sites.
And are not these sites, where the
graves of the youth of England and
France lie clustered as primroses in
a copse, indeed sacred?" He was
in the zone of the Fifth Army until
the break-in swept toward him and
ended art work in France. These
shattered factories and farms and
ruined towns and skeleton churches
have now passed to the enemy, and
in many cases have probably passed
out of existence. Thousands of peo-
pie have associations with them
through men who fell there or as
having themselves fought over the
ground. Rothenstein has thus been
a pilgrim for many.
Through his art we see the es-
sence of these places in mood OF
reverence. His sirnplihed design;
fine, rarehed draughtsmanship and
delicate observation endow the desc
late scene with austere beauty. The
strangeness of it all is ever present
in the interior walls with their wall
papers turning queer faces of indoor
color to the haggard daylight. He
works curious harmonies out of
these secret colors revealed, and the
war landscape and the .camoufage
guns. He has also done fine serv-
ice in his series of portraits of Indian
soldiers who have had so much less
than their due from us for their
splendid work under conditions
much harder to them than to our
troops.

GEN. SQUIER MAY
ANSWER CRITICISM
Of AIRCRAF PLANS

Mai. Gen. George o. Squier may re-
ply to the criticism In the Senate
Military Affairs Committee of the Nd
ministration's airplane program and
the Liberty motor, it became known
today. 4 special committee, named
by President Wilson, has been investi-
eating all phases of the work, and is
expected to make a detailed report
shortly.
Major-qeneral Squier. as director Of
the nations airplane program, has
asked the special committee to be
merciless and spare no one 1t its IN
ouiry. II there are evidences of in
efficiency, he says, they should be
made public that a remedy may be
had.
In the meantime charges made in
Congress have amazed some of the
officers interested in the carrying out
Of the airplane program.
Ask About Pictures.
One of the witnesses before the
Senate Military Affairs Committee.
Lieut.. Col. E. Lester Jones, made the
statement that only one airplane had
been shipped to Europe by this Gov
eminent, and that there will be no
more than thirty-seven American
combat planes completed for the
American troops by July 1.
Senator wadsworth displayed be-
fore the committee a list Of captions
for pictures sent out by the commit
tee on public information. telling or
the great numbers of airplane bodies
= a. N
renee Rubel, in charge of the division
on pictures, was called before the
committee. He testified that tn sig
nal corps had informed his division
that the airplane bodies were coming
from the factories so rapidly that
they had to be stored in warehouses.
Il was agreed after discussion by
members of the committee to with
draw the captions on the ground that
they were misleading.
Censor Summoned.
In answer TO the statement by
Senator FreIinghuysen that the cen
sorship bureau probably needed
censor, Mr.. Rubel stated that the Sig
nal Corps did have censor in the
person OF Lieutenant Burkhardt- The
Signal Corps censor was summoned to
Committee today.
Right on the heels OF criticism OF
the Liberty motor a telegram reached
the office Of Major General Squier an
nouncing that the Liberty motor, in an
American-built combat plane, yester-
day had broken previous records by
ascending 1880 feet. 1t was an
nounced that Liberty motors in Am
erican-built combat planes are giving
successful results daily, which are
being flashed here.
The records, it was made known to-
day, show that Liberty motors have
been shipped to Great Britain.

liberty motors have heenPfo4ided for
