conquer this enemy, says a bulletin
today from the National War Garden
Commission of Washington. We had
5,2S5,000 war gardens in the United
States. Let us have 100000 "vic-
tory gardens" in 1919 and help to feed
the hungry millions of the world.

Set the box in the house by a window

mild set it out of doors in a protected
place in the sun.
When the plants are about an inch
high thin out the surplus ones so those
left are two inches apart. If you can
use these thinned out plants just make
boxes of the same kind, fill them with
rich earth, and set the plants 2 inches
apart in each direction. This will give
them room to grow into stocky plants
by the time the garden is ready for
them.

GERMANY'S REPLY VAGUE

Tho changed tone Of Germany S
voice with reference to the stated war
aims OF the Entente Allies and the
United States will lead to some specu-
'1ation, but certainly not inspire any
definite hopes OF peace. The Chancei
Tor Of the Austro-Hungarian empire
.has spoken simultaneously with the
German Chancellor, but in widely
different and much more conc1tatory
vein. While 1t is evident that ooth
,autocracies would welcome peace Aus
-$ria speaks much more frankly than
rhsr German ally. 1t Is plain that ooth
tare moved by a critical situation in
h&heIr internal affairs and that one
sTord is intended for foreign consump-
stiou and two for impressions at home.
y The affected agreements with Presi-
fdent Wilson's statement on the part
sof Germany do not ring true and are
hinged with vagueness. 1t Is hard to
accept any representations OF the rui'
ling powers OF Germany at their face
value, after the obvious duplicity re-
ryealed in the termination Of the Brest:
Iltovsk conference with Russia's rep
rresentatires. Four out Of the fourteen
%pecifcations as outlined by President
Wilson are declared to be acceptable
,'tu Germany. but they are negligible
;concessions compared with the ten
reservations on the all important de-
:mands. The air Of conquest still holds
with the militaristic spirit.
- Whatever might be the views OF the
United States on the suggestion OF
I Germany that England shall relinQulsh
.sthe fortress Of Gibraltar and all other
! ortifed places along sailing routes
< completely excludes England from
onsideration Of German terms
IBubiection to such an elimination
would indeed remove the strongest
;props OF the British empire. So far as
1.-The ordinary vision reaches there is
:nothing encouraging in Germany's re-
ply looking to any agreeable basis for
;peace negotiations.
