Germany-20 Years After

We may sum up the situation as it
will exist 20 years after the close of
the present war somewhat as follows,
provided the allies DO not succeed in
debating all the terms of peace:
Germany, her territory unscathed by
the present war, will have in large
measure recovered from its effects.
while. with her continental enemies
SO bitterly ravished by the wars
sweep, the process of regeneration will
scarcely have gotten we'll under way.
The mobilization of her man power and
that of her allies will place an army of
100000 men all German trained and
German equipped under the German
command to be thrown against one
fourth of that force in Europe. This
time the struggle will he short. There
will be no miscalculation, no Marine, no
Verdun. Then will the real German
aim--not Hamburg Bagdad but Ca =
lais- Bagdad-be achieved; and out OF
the apparent downfall of the present
war will spring the world power OF
which the Pan-Germanic league has
been dreaming since 1870 and of which

Sir: Permit me to call your atten
ton to the Associated Press dispatch
from Chicago in the morning papers
of today. The opening paragraph
reads, ,.-.y,.#f
Maximum prices on oats and pro
visions Were set by the Chicago Board
of Trade today in an effort to stop
speculation in these products"
Here is an open confession of the
truth of the charges so long made by
the farmers Of the country against the
big exchanges-that they could and
did fix the prices of farm products
What interests did the Chicago
Board of Trade represent in it's action
Of Thursday? The growers of food
products? No. The consumers of
was represented then? The gambling
interests intent upon robbing both the
producing classes!
Tho gambling exchanges have al
ways done just this. Their operations
during peace times have constituted an
| economic crime against both farmers
and consumers. Their operations
since the war have been, Also treason
against the nation.
| Is 1t any wonder then. that we folks
On the farms have flockod in thou
| sands into the Nom Partisan league?
| The other political parties had for
wears been appealed to in vain for a
| redress of grievances. There was no
other hope for us save political revolt

! do not deny that in the first days
of the league movement radical leaders
| made unwise statements. Always in

cal whose voice is first heard. Pre-

and women; a confidence based upon

class has written so many bright pages
OF that history. 1t was unthinkable

flour in our own mills. We have
no doubt as Mr.. Teagarden says,
that the farmers have been
cheated by the grain gamblers at
Minneapolis and Chicago and we
think the people at large have
suffered grieyously from this sit
uation. We do not see why q
primary grain market should not
be established here, and we would
be glad to hear more on this sub
ject from those who are in pos
session of all of the facts of a
somewhat intricate subject.
The suggestion Of the other
correspondent that steps be taken
without delay to have q survey in
Missoula of labor that might be
available for our farmers during
the coming summer, we think, is
most timely and valuable. That
should be a job for the chamber
of commerce. There should be,
next summer, a considerable
number of men in Missoula who
could easily be spared to aid the
farmers. The sacrifice to the
employers of this city in permit
ting their men to take up this
work would be trifling compared
with the results. TO permit crops
to go implanted or unharyestcd
in our own section for lack of
help when there are so many men
in Missoula. who could altcrna-.
lively give a week or so to this
service, would be something
worse than a crime.
This is strictly home work. We
should not rely upon the govern
ment to do it for us but should
get in and help ourselves. The
secretary of the chamber of COM
merce last summer set good eX-
ample by spending his vacation
helping farmer up the Blackfoot
valley. If his example is followed
this summer there would be many
material benefits and among
them, as our correspondent sug-
gests, would be a welding to-
gether of sympathy and interest
between our farmer friends and
ourselves.

PNEUMONIA.

The pneumococcus, or the
pneumonia germ thriyes best, and
is most dangerous in February
and March. Pneumonia is the
deadliest of acute diseases and
the most difficult to combat with.
There are few medical remedies
Of much use, and there is really
but one way to combat this enc
my of the human kind. That is
to prevent it from getting the
start that leads to the strangle
hold.
The germ, especially at this
season, is present in the throat
and mouth and in the air. When
it gets into the lungs and the
bodily resistance is low, pneu-
mOnia follows.
To begin with, we should keep
the body in condition to resist
this invasion. That is best done
by breathing fresh, pure air,
keeping good habits and getting
plenty Of rest. Over fatigue
weakens ones vitality and makes
the way easier for pneumonia, as
well as other diseases.
A common advance agent of
pneumonia is a hard cold. Many
people give no attention to a cold,
further than to regard it as an
annoyance. AS a matter of fact,
it Is serious. One who beats out
a cold by following the ordinary
daily routine of life is fortunate.
A cold that reaches to the lungs
is certainly paving the way for
pneumonia.
Therefore, most health authori-
ties agree that one with a cold
should remain in bed for twenty
four or forty-eight hours, until
the crisis is over. 1t will not do
merely to remain III the house,
because the temperature of the
rooms differ.
Pneumonia, especially of the
lobar kind, is contagious. The
patient should be isolated, SO that
the germs from the sputum may
not spread.
The two important things how
ever, to keep in mind, are to keep
the body at its highest degree OF
resistance, and to take cold Sc
riously.

There has been very marked
improvement in health statistics
at the cantonmcnts since last
summer when conditions, espc-
'cially at Camp Bowie were al
most appalling. For the week
ending February 10, there was a
lower death rate at all of the
camps than at any time since last
November. The total number of
deaths for that week was AT, of
which 06 We're from pneumonia.
Rapid progress has been made in
furnishing blankets and clothing
and from the various government
reports we conclude that the
loved ones at home have little
cause for worry at this time, as to
the lack of medical attention or
supplies. We have, on several
occasions, said that one really big
thing that is being done at all
these environments and that is The
protection of our soldiers from
Ncncrcal diseases and such evils
as have been common III army
camps. To Secretary Baker Is
conceded very large credit for
keeping our boys morally sound.

There is Il strong and growing
sentiment among Canadians that
after the War their country must
occupy Il much larger and more
important place in the British
empire. Canada was not consult
ed by the mother country when
thc decision of war hung in the
balducc, but she got chcrriully
INTO the game and has given the
lives Of thousands of young men
and money at the rate of Il mil
Hon dollars 4 day. Some of her
statesmen say truly that there
must be entire independence or
an imperial federation. which
really would make Canada one Of
a league of nations in The British
empire and that is what she real
by wants. Hereafter, Canada does
not intend TO have her part in
foreign affairs arranged by a
handful of so-callcd representa-
tives in London; she means to
have her say through her own
government in parliament and on
terms of equality with England
las a unit and one of the league

doubt that IL will be realized.

1t is reported that the plan worked.
Eighty seven farmers were assisted.
The reporter added that this co opera

Why can't Missoula do likewise? I
am sure that We can find two or
three hundred. men who can stand at
least one or two weeks of farm work,
They may be needed to- save our crops.
But in order to do it we must have a
plan. Our city government is sup
posed to run an employment agency.
Why not have them get on the job?
