use in chasing about trying to get the

WHY WE MUST WIN THE WAR
II Conflict Ends With Conditions as at
Present Germany Will Doml-
nate, Writer Says.

'Mittel- Europa is in existence to-
day." says Frederick Naumann,
prominent member Of the reichstag.
He is right. Germany stands pos
sessed Of all she hoped to gain when
she forced the war. She has reduced
her allies to military and economic de-
pendence. She dominates Belgium,
northern France, Poland, Russia, Ser
bia, Montenegro and Roumania. More
than 2OO,O00,00O people IRE under the
dictation Of Prussia.
II the war ends with conditions as
they are at present Germanys brutal
policy of force will dominate the world.
Italy, France and Great Britain have
q combined population of 11S,OOOOOO.
They are much smaller in area than
the Mittel-Europa empire would be,
are detached from each other and con-
fined within narrow limits on the
south and west Of Europe. Neces-
sarily they would become second-class
powers.
The United States, practically alone,
would be left to face the aggression
Of a power with about twice the popu-
'lation, directed by autocratic rulers
toward further conquest.
The only way to make ourselves
safe Is to win the war.

Alfalfa In New Zealand.

The raising Of lucerne or alfalfa in
New Zealand is receiving much atten-
ton Of late, and the different varie-
ties are being tested. with the result
that there was cut during 1917 three
crops of Turkestan lucerne with a
total of 6 is long tons per acre Of the
green lucerne, weighing shortly after
cutting liz tons Of Peruvian per acre,
12% tons Of Potion, liz tons of Rus
sian, u tons Of Spanish, II 1-3 tons
Of Hungarian, IA tons Of Patagonian,
and 14A tons Of Marlborough lucerne.
It is estimated that the Patagonian and
Marlborough lucerne, when converted
into hay, would give an approximate
yield Of 31A tons each, which at S19.46
per ton gives total value Of $6S.13
per acre.

The Lucky Horseshoe.

/ When Lord French visited the little
county town of Oldham to inspect the
Rutland volunteers, he found time to
leave horseshoe on the castle walls.
From time immemorial the lord Of
the manor has demanded horseshoe
from every peer Of the realm on his
first setting foot within the "lordship."
The custom is carefully kept up, and
the ever-increasing collection Of horse
shoes which hang on the walls Of the
hall Of the castle numbers some 200,
ranging In size from that Of the ordi-
nary racer to the Brobdingnagian pro-
portions Of a shoe seven feet long.

First Fiction Known.

The Oldest work Of fiction extant
Is thought to be the tale Of Two Broth
ers," written $500 years ago by the
Theban scribe Ennana, librarian Of the
palace Of King Menepthah, the sup
posed Pharaoh Of the Exodus. The
tale, it appears, was written for the
entertainment Of the crown prince.
who subsequently reigned as Seti II.
His name appears in two places In the
manuscript, probably the only surviy-
ing autograph signature Of an Egypt
Ian king. This piece Of q fiction,
writer on nineteen sheets Of papyrus
In bold hieratic hand, was purchased
In Italy by Nine. d'Orbiney, who sold
1t in 1857 to the authorities Of the
British museum, where 1t is now
known as the D'Orbiney papyrus.

WOMEN SUFFERERS MAY
need SWAMP ROOT

Thousands upon thousands Of women
have kidney and bladder trouble and
never suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result Of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in healthy
condition, they may cause the other or
gans to become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache, loss Of am.
bition, nervousness, are often times symp-
toms Of kidney trouble.
Don't delay starting treatment. Dr..
Klmers' Swamp Root, q physicians pre-
scription, obtained at any drug store, may
be just the remedy needed to overcome
such conditions.
Get medium or large size bottle i'm.

Treatment Of Prisoners.

There is still talk in some quarters
Of Wales Of a German invasion. A
thousand years ago, however, inva-
sions were quite common thing along
the Welsh shores. The Vikings came
and went pretty much as they pleased.
They burnt and massacred In a
way that would have delighted the Ger
mans. On one occasion they burnt
st. David's, and actually cooked and
ate the bishop which, no doubt, de-
lighted the antichurch people of those
days. On the other hand, when the
Welsh caught Viking they fiayed him
alive and nailed his skin to the church
door. There was no softness with
prisoners such as, is exhibited today.

The Beaver In NORWAY.

The beaver is very scarce animal
In Norway, only living in small colo
MES at few places in the country.
1t is absolutely forbidden to kill the
animal. The farmers. however, claim
that the beavers do great damage to
their forests and have now asked the
government for right to kill them off
whenever it can be proved that they
are doing damage. If not allowed to
kill the animals the farmers will ask
the government to reimburse them for
the damage done to their property.
