II will despise American manhood
II the great body Of our men permit

''There is a considerable army of
women already in the field or agri-

women, who are in the homes Of the
farmers, teaching them better ways
Of living, showing them new methods
of conservation and making the farm

the interest Of health and comfort as

standpoint Of profit.
Last Years Achievement.
"These leaders last year taught l.
100000 ONE and girls to car and
dry vegetables and fruits. The girls
under instruction canned over A.
900, 900 containers, and the women
more Than $4,000, 900 containers. At
the minimum wholesale price of these
products their value aggregated more
than $1,000, 900; and the recorded ac-
Invites represent only a part of what
was accomplished under the leader
ship of these women employed by the
department of agriculture and the
Immigrant colleges last ear in the
production and conservation of fruits
and vegetables. There are in the
pantries of the United States today
more of such products than there aver
were before, and every container rep
resents an equal amount of CONNER
cial pack released for transportation
across the sea

now is the service of individual per-
Torrance in our own homes, in our
own business and in u own neigh

something spectacular, especially by
coming to Washington or by going to

Cooperation of country and city

quicker, with less suffering, is Mr..

The province Of Archangel extends
from the Ural mountains westward to
Finland. a distance of about 900 miles
and from Vologda and Olonets on the
south, to the Arctic ocean, about 400
miles. 1t contains the ports Of Arch
angel and Mourmansk, the only Rus
sian outlets to the Arctic ocean. It was
on the Mourmansk coast that French
and British troops were landed some
time ago to protect the Mourmansk
railway, over which allied supplies
had been going in Russia.
Washington, July I'm the Rus
sian province Of Archangel, where a
state of war has been proclaimed, ac-
cording to q dispatch from Moscow,
lies the Arctic port of Kola with its
railroad guarded. by allied and Ameri-
can naval forces. Consequently the
greatest interest attached to any de-
velopments there and officials and
diplomats here are wondering what
the declaration of a state of war may
mean.
All recent reports to the state de-
partment have represented conditions
to be quiet around Archangel and
along the railroad southwark from
kola and it is hoped that the latest
development may mean no more than
that the Bolshevik government has
proclaimed martial law to maintain
order.
At Kola and for miles inland along
the railroad there are acres Of mill
tary supplies, running all the way
from locomotives and cannon to
clothing and provisions. scattered
over the country. Most Of these were
shipped from America and from Eng
land when the Russian armies were
still fighting the Germans and were
short of supplies. The goods accumu-
lated while the railroad from the
Arctic port was being rushed to COM
pletion as a military measure. When
the line was opened, but before any
large quantity of supplies could be
shipped southwark, the Brest-Litovsk
peace was declared and the movement
ceased. @
It is known that the Germans have
been exceedingly anxious to obtain
possession of these supplies, or if they
could not do so directly, to have them
taken over by the Finnish White
guards, who have been acting under
German prompting.
The allies have realized the danger
and have landed French and British
marines at Kola, who have taken over
a considerable part Of the railroad
running southwark.
AS this territory is regarded by the
allies and by the United States gov
eminent as within the sphere Of con-
troll of General Foch in his capacity
as commander-in-chief, it has been
deemed proper to give the occupying
forces an international character
Therefore American marines and blue.
Jackets are mingled with the French
and British naval forces at Kola.

CORN MARKET

Scantiness of Stolk Available

Price Up.

Chicago, July 1. - Scantiness Of
stock available for July delivery tend
ed to strengthen the corn market to-
day. especially as from now on a
steady enlargement of wheat ship
ments promised to curtail receipts Of
corn. Under such circumstances, ia
vorable weather conditions had only
a transient bearish effect. Trade was
light. but leading houses were con-
spicuous on the buying side. Initial
prices which varied from unchanged
figures to 1-8c lower with July $1.47
7-8 to $1.48 and September $1.52 1-2,
were followed by a slight additional
sag and then a material upturn all
around.
Oats were under more selling pres
sure than corn. Good weather and
the absence of export demand were
the chief bearish factors. After
August 68 3-8 the market suffered a
moderate setback and showed little
power to rally.
Provisions averaged slightly higher.
