JAPAN WILL HELP SIBERIA

Press dispatches report that Japan
is preparing to send troops to Siberia
to aid the anti-Bolshevist forces that
have declared and are fighting for the
| independence of that vast territory
from the Urals to the Pacific
That action on the part of Japan
need create no surprise, Japan is not
going to sit idly by and have Siberia
turned into veritable province of
Germany. The Germans are close
enough to Japan right now, think
japanese statesmen, and they will not
be allowed to get a foothold in the
East
England is as much concerned in
keeping the Germans from controlling
Siberia as is Japan. Siberian and In
dian frontiers meet, it must be re-
membered. If the facts were known
it would doubtless be disclosed that
Japan is preparing to intervene with
the consent of England. The British
are not in a position to take a hand
openly. England is trying to keep on
good terms with the Bolshevist gov
eminent, and relations would be brok.
en- at once if England aided the ST.
berian revolters. Japan can give this
aid as she is not concerned with keep
ing in the good graces of Trotzky and
his fellows.
Japan's only interest in the matter
is to have a Siberia that will not be
unfriendly. Japan had come to an I'M
Outstanding with both England and
Russia that meant peace and stability
in the Orient. If Germany should fin
ally come to control the Siberian re.
public or should control Russian gov
eminent that held Siberia as a prov
ince, all kinds of trouble might result
for Japan.
It seems to be the intention of ia
pan, unless a stable Russian govern
ment is soon formed. to give financial
and perhaps military assistance to
Siberian revolutionists, who have no
with the Bolsheviki or with |
Germany. That would make certain |
the creation of stable Siberian state
whose future independence would be
assured by treaty of alliance with |
Japan.

HOES VERSUS GOLF STICKS

Mrs. Howard Gould has offered to
the department of agriculture her
estates in Virginia for grain-growing,
She suggests that other wealthy peo-
pie do likewise, in order that the cul-
tivated acreage this year be in
creased.
Here is the germ of a brilliant
idea.
Why can't well-to-do people who
help maintain golf links and hunting
preserves plant them this season and
every season until the war ends?
Then a member of a golf club, when
he went out for his afternoons exer-
else, would don overalls and pick up a
hoe and a rake instead of his golf
sticks. He would get just as much
exercise as he would playing golf and
he would be devoting his leisure time
to helping feed our soldiers.
It may come to that. The women
neglect no opportunity to knit for the
soldiers, and the men may decide tc
use every spare minute to raising
food for them.

a PEOPLE WITHOUT LOVE OF
COUNTRY

Sir Walter Scott once wrote poem
on the man who cannot say This is
my own, my native land"
In later day Edward Everett Hale
wrote an essay on "The Man Without
a Country"
The Bolsheviki in Russia might fam
iIiarize themselves with these works
of literature with profit to themselves.
They have looked upon patriotism as
an unworthy feeling. Nationalism to
them has meant nothing, and interna-
tionalism everything.
Then when Germany began an inva-
sion of demobilized Russia the Boil
sbeviki government issued a call Ito
defend the Fatherland." 1t was an
pOunced that the invaders would be
opposed to the death.
But few Russians sprang to arms,
and the Hun hordes were not op
posed. Russia was forced into agree
ing to sign an ignominious treaty OF
peace.
For the Bolsheviki there is nc
fatherland and no love of country
They are concerned with dreams far
beyond such puerile present-day con

IT'S BEST TO HAVE A GUN

An editorial writer on the Kansas
City Times has read many stories
of how a piercing look into the, eye
of mad dog will stop it. Some
hunters have commended that a man
can protect himself from a lion il he
will look hard and straight into the
lions optics.
This writer no longer believes these
When he goes into the jun

on it alone. He will take no chances

The reason for this disbelief in an
Oft-repeated story is that it did not
work with the Russians. They threw
away their arms, went down to Brest-
Litovsk, took firm squint at the Hun
and expected to see him recoi1 in
intimidation.
But the Hun was not cowed

Grades for Sweet Potatoes.

After study OF the possibilities
of grading sweet potatoes the bureau
OF markets has submitted tentative
grades to a list of dealers. growers
and operators of sweet potato stor-
age houses for their suggestions and
criticism. Over 90 per cent Of the
replies are decidedly in favor of the
grades. One OF the letters OF ap-
proval was from the eastern shore
Of Virginia produce exchange. which
is composed of producers and is one
of the largest sweet potato market
ing organizations in the country.

Business Men Harvest Potatoes in
Texas.

The potato crop of Houston and
Wharton counties, Texas, has been
saved through the aid Of the bust
ness men in local towns. When it
was realized that the potato crop
would be lost unless the farmers re-
ceived help, the state enXtension di-
rector. cooperating with the farm
help specialist of the department of
agriculture, explained the situation
to the business men, who closed their
offices and stores, went to the farms
and worked with the potato growers
in harvesting their crop. Such CO.
operation is meaning much not only
for the increasing of the food supply
of the nation but is breaking down
the barrier that in many cases has
existed between town and country,
according to U. S. department of ag-
riculture. Business men and farm
ers are working hand in hand to Sc
cure an ADEQUATE food supply and to
further the nations cause. Other
communities are planning to follow
the example set in these Texas coun-
ties.

He also recommended that a new

Mr.. McAdoo said it would constitute
