Large Acreage 10 Corn.

Despite the lack OF labor and a
rather uniavorable planting sea-
son it Is estimated that the corn
acreage IN Pennsylvania this sea-
son Is somewhat larger than last
year when 65,260 885 bushels
were produced on 1,6OO,586
acres.
Reports from all counties show
that the farm ers made every ef-
fort to get out a maximum aver.
age of corn, but poor seed and
wet weather proved hindrance
IN some sections. The same con
dltions have made the prospects
for a bumper crop below normal
as the fields of corn do not meas
ure up to the condition that they
should az this season OF the year
and the cold weather has not been
conducive of good corn growing.
Experts who have travelled over
the State estimate that the con.
dltion OF corn is no " about eigh-
ty per cent. of an average crop,
but they say that with late fall
the production may be much
better than Is now expected
There ls every indication Of
big increase in the acreage OF
buckwheat and 1t is beng tried
in many sections where the farm
ers were unable TO get IN corn
early IN the season.

viii Handle $1,000 Shells a Day.

Quantity If not capacity ship
ments will start soon from a new
Government shell-l aiding fac
tory IN New Jersey, one OF four
such Government plants each OF
which is larger than any similar
plant IN the world.
When turning out $1,000 load
ed shells a day under full opera
tion the plant will use 1000 tons
of shells and explosives daily,
the products of some Is factories.
More than 5000 workmen will
be required. Plans conteu-
plate the employment of a large
mum ber of women. The mark
ing Of shells to designate size,
load, an d range will require
250,000 operations each day.
The plant has a total area OF
approximately $500 acres. More
than 100 buildings, with an ag-
gregate floor space of 1900, 900
square feet, will provide storage
for shells and parts and for ma
terial. A small city, with heat
Ing and lighting plants, water
and sewage systems, hospitals,
fre.fghtlng plant, and restaurant
was built to house the employees.
There is equipment to protect
the health OF those who work
with poisonous gases, and a
school for instruction in the
loading Of artillery ammunition
with high explosives.
The operating plant consists
OF 13 shell loading units, each
independent Of the other, with
equipment for loading 10 sizes Of
shells, ranging from the recent
ly developed 81 milllmeter to 16
inches. On two slz s Of shells
the propelllng charge also will
be loaded, the shell and cartridge
case being assembled at the
plant. All other shells are as
sem bled In France.
In the construction of the
shell loading units the prom blem
was far greater than one Of mere
building. Immense fans have
been installed to dispose Of the
poisonous fumes from the high
explosives. When unit Is IN
operation the air in the loading
room is changed every few
minutes. Specially designed
suits will be worn during work
with the explosives.

tury and half chered together when
Van Halter, the navy catcher, slid
home for the first score Of the game
The King, Britain's greatest demo-
crat, stood in his box to watch the
crazy antics of the navy fans. The
Queen focused her glasses on the med
ley, of hats, flags, arms and legs. The
Duke OF Connaught tapped his cane
to applaud. Irwin Laughlin, American
Charge d'Aftairs, explained rapidly the
plays OF the game to the Queen and her
mother.
Asquith Also There
From the royal box Herbert Asquith,
Winston Spencer Churchill, Walter
Hume Long and other British notables,
General Biddle, Admiral Sims and
many prominent American civilians
looked out upon the diamond, and their
thoughts must have been on other
things than the fast game between the
two strong teams.
Though they admired the splendid
pitching of Pennock, the old Athletic
southpaw, their minds must have been
filled with the significance of this great
gathering Of English-speaking peoples.
Next to British captain wearing the
V. c., D. S. O., NJ. c. and a host Of
other decorations sat young Ameri

to President Wilson's address, Felix
]. Streyckmans, of Chicago, of Belgian
birth, pledged the nations foreign
born to persevere in the struggle for
liberty until freedom is secured for
America, the nations from which thew
sprang and all the world.
TO this shrine OF the American
people, said Mr.. Streyckmans, "to the
mortal remains Of the man who, more
than any other, gave the American
ideal life and form. we have come to-
day, bearing our humble tribute as
cltlzens Of the great Republic You
yourself, Mr.. President, have acceded
to our request that this Independence
Day be designated as festival os
loyalty on the part of cur foreign
born citizens and of their sons and
daughters. 1t is for me, representing
this committee Of pilgrims, to tell you
what 1t means to u.s.
One hunored and forty-two years
age, to-day, group of men, animated
WIN me same spirit as that of the
man mar who lies here, founded the United
States of America on The theory of
free government with the consent Of
the governed. That was the beginning
OF America. AS the years went on, as
one century blended with enother, men
and women came from even the utter
most ends of the earth to Join them.
We have called them alien; but they
were never alien: Though they spoke
not word Of the language of this
country, though they groped only
dlmly toward its institutions, they
were already Americans in soul or they
would never have come.
Washington's Soul Leads
I'VE are the latest manifestation of
that American soul. And scarcely had
we settled ourselves into the structure
OF this dear country of cur adoption
when we found the spirit Of Washing
ton, now blazing up to be the guiding
light Of twenty great nations assailed
as never before by the sinister forces
Of reaction. Autocracy, in its most
murderous form, had gathered itself
for its final struggle With the soul
OF Washington leading on, America en-
tered the battle line; and we, in g.
spirit OF solemn gladness, entered with
her. W
I'VE: who make this pilgrimage, are
nations-and Americans ali. We come
not alone. Behind us are millions Of
our people, united to-day in plcdging
themselves tc the cause of this coun-
try and of the free nations with which
she is joined. In my owa city 100000
foreign-b born men and women are at
this moment lifting their hands and
renewing their vows of loyalty. From
coast to coast. in city, town and ham
let. our citizens will be demonstrating
that the oath which they took upon
their naturalization was not an empty
form of words. Yes, and more than
that. When, tomorrow, the casualty
list brings heaviness to some homes
and firm sense of resolution to all,
we shall read upon the roll of honor
Slavic names, Teutonic nemes, Latin
we have sealed our faith With the
blood Of our best youth.
To this beloved shade we come to-
day with the hopes of our races
garnered in our hands. To you, worthy
successor of our great lberator, we
give the promise Of the r,;llions who
sent US here that we will persevere in
the struggle until lasting freedom is
occurred not only for this nation, but
for the nations from which we sprang
yes, and for all the other nations"

Biddle Speaks for Army
Speaking as the representative Of the
American army, General Biddle said
that in the vicinity Of almost every city
IN the United Kingdom are Americans
either in transit or in training. Every.
where was displayed the same friend-
ness and generosity, both by author-
ties and individuals, who had offered
hospitals for the sick and wounded,
homes for the canvalescent and outings
for those in good health. The most
beautiful homes and parks in England.
Scotland and Ireland had been placed
at the disposal of the American troops
"that we all feel this deeply, and from
this day, added to the many that have
preceded and the many that will follow.
will result an understanding, respect
and liking between America and Great
Britain which will last as long as the
countries last-and that is forever"
Referring to the movement of Amer
lean troops to the battlefield, General
Biddle said:
"The significant thing about the sol
diers and sailors we see in London to
day, Of those marching through th
streets of your cities and living in you
camps, is that we have ten millions jus
like them who can and will be brough
over here when they are needed. Amer
lca is in the war to stay, and every re-
port from my country, public or private
shows her iindonnitable purpose to fight
to a finish for democracy"
In seconding Mr.. Churchill's resolu.
tion at the Fellowship meeting, Arthur
Meighen, Canadian Minister of the In.
terror, denounced in scathing terms The
sinking of the hospital ship Llandovery
Castle by German submarine.
"It is better that the world sholld
perish than that those murderH
should live" he said.
Referring to the American Declars.
tion of independence, Mr.. Meighen
said:
"a country cannot be wholly lost to
England that is not wholly lost to lib.
erty."
