In Flanders field where side by side
The crosses mark the battle tide,
Beneath the willows row on row,
Where tranquil hrce2es softly blow,
Brave hearts are hushcd and piiiowed
deep,
Meath scarlet poppies fast asleep.
Tho fresh and fair is Flanders field.
That now the wounds OF war have
healed,
Reared not of popped fields arc these,
Our lads whom sleep beneath it's leas.
But born o fslopes that bear the pine,
or valleys sweet with columbine.
or where in other days they've trod.
Der meadows fright with golden-rod,
Down where the corn flowers nodding
blow.
And upland Glades where daisies grow,
Or sweet magnolia sips the dew.
From homeland skies forever blue.
But patience lads. You shall not rest
Forever there upon the breast
OF scarlet Flanders popped fields.
For when the bells of peace have pealed
Wen bear YOU back to where the loan.
Springs bright for aye with flowers or

PEACE OFFENSIVE WILL BE pRoBsD.

The New York Times has expressed
sober second thought resarding the
Austrian bid for peace which invita-
ton can not be accepted in formal
and public way but which may proceed
10 operate in the privacy Of diplomatic
circles AMI possibly lead 10 seTioits
peace negotiations later on.
At the outset it must he realized that
the first ntimation of a willingness TO
quiet must come in some graniloquent
and high sounding phrases as contained
IN the Austrian note. No loser would
make his unconditional surrender with
out at least making a try for terms, so
if Austria Is really cracking and its
government is in danger the bid might
possibly have a genuine purpose to get
out Of the war altho the fear among our
allies has been that II was designed to
cause our armies to let up on their
pressure. The thing for us to do is 10
apply more pressure and then 10 ma
ONT whether Austria really wants peace
or only rest.
In all human probability the allied
governments which have scorned the
Austrian note are now busy agreeing
confdentially among themselves as to
what their terms for peace shall be
When agreed upon some neutral diplo-
mat will convey to Austria information
as to the terms upon which she can
obtain peace II Austria wants con-
ference to consider such terms as our
allies are willing to offer an invitation
| TO discuss peace will come from some
neutral government but most Of the
business will have been transacted as
| all large contracts are negotiated in
privacy until il is time to file the
papers.
Austria's note may have been a peace
offensive as the term is used to camou-
1age a call for time when combatant
wants to rest and catch his breath and
the fear that it is not genuine
ackn owledgement of defeat Is justified,
| II can be treated only as a ruse until
it is probed to its source but some day,
somewhere this war win end by the
| vaneuis,ed admitting that he Is licked
and has had enough. In olden times

PRICE REGULATION SOUTH AND NORTH.

Naturally the farmer OF the north

his wheat ana wool shall be price hNed

Texas raises goats, the mohair pro-
ducing goat Texas representatives
protest loudly against any price Oh
mchair less than a dollar a pound
And seem TO ne getting away with It,
So, naturally, the northern producer
is asking himself why this difference
OF treatment between north and south,
between the wheat producer and the
cotton grower, between the man VINO
raises wheat in the Dakotas and thru
the northern and western middle west
and the mohair producers OF Texas
And he fails to find an answer that ne
