The broad ax. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1895-19??, 1918-12-21

Hello life, hello death!
A word with thee both on the meadow
ways,
A word with thee from the Spring
song days,
And a drink from the waters the
river gives
Where love is adrift with the dream
that lives,
And the light that plays,
Hello life, hello DEATH
Hello death, hello life;
A night with thee when the half
souled moon
Listens pallid and silent to the half
dream tune
You get from the heart of a lovely
one,
Who sang with thee when her labor
was done,
To her babe sleeps Groom;
Hello death. hello life!
The broad ax. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1895-19??, 1918-12-21

Oh! Life, Oh! Death,
There is no end to song,
There is no end to light,
Fen tho the time is not long
To the end of to night;
Hello life, hello DEATH

THE FARMER AND
THE WORLD WAR
sy Henry J..Wassrs

(Mr Waters. an agricultural authority.

Agricultural College and at present cdt-
tor OF the Kansa City Weekly Star. was
In Europe when the WorldsWar began.)
No class of men In this country
should be more interested ip the sue
cess OF the war than the farmers.
The spirit Of the farmer Ia and a.
ways has beenA the,essence Of democ-
racy.. and this war is being fought,
as the President has 80 fittingly
stated. to make the world safe for
democracy. No undemocrstic civil.
cation has ever given the farmer .
square deal. A world unsafe for
democracy 10 world unsafe for the
farmer.
With his interestsAthus at stake. the
farmer may well invest. to the limit
OF his financial ability. in the Lib
erty Bonds which the government Is
sues to help Insure success In this
great struggle. 1t is true that he is
making his land produce Its full meas.
ure Of crops, as a service to the ma
tion. 1t Is true that he has given and
Is giving his sons to fight In the great
cause But these alone are not
enough. II everyk man would do his
best In whatever kindutry he is en-.
gagged in. or even hf every man could
enlist for actual icombstant service.
there would still be the need for
money. The example Of Russia shows
the hopelessnesa OF carrying on war
without money, The citizens Of the
United States--all the citizens-must
get back Of the United States with
every financial resouUe they possess.
Aside from the facr that they rep
resent patriotic service. Liberty Bonds
are the surest investment in the
world. The credit Of the United
States-better and greater than the
credit Of any other enterprise on earth
guarantees the interest on these
bonds and guarantees 1.-THE payment of
the principal upon maturity. They
are the one tnyestmen that drouth,
lack OF labor, financial panic. or any
other contingency cam in no wise af.

Trouble 10 Due Chiefly to Surrender
80 Of Land by Teutons Back

Stockholm, July 12.-Ukrania is in Q
state Of countrywide revolution, ac.
cording to dispatches received here.
The Germans are pouring in rein-
forcements, which now have reached
q total Of 100000 men.
The peasants have several small
armies of $1,000 to 10000 each, all
well armed with artillery and machine
guns. These are defending the vil-
lagos and whole sections of trenches.
The fight is not Of political char
acter. but is due chiefly to the sur
render Of land by the Germans back
to the landlords. Homestead sections
33 miles square have been wiped out.
This revolution, together with the
increasing power of the Czecho-Slo-
vaks In the east, necessitating diver

RENCH AND ITALIAN FORCES
STILL MAKING PROGRESS
IN ALBANIA.
REPuLsE BuLGAR ATTACKS
Fighting In Macedonia is Spreading
Eastward and the BuIgarians
= - '
Are On the Offensive
North Of MonastIr.

London, July 12.-Under Franco-Ital-
ian pressure the Austrian troops in
Albania have retired beyond the Berat
Fieri line in the direction of the
Skumbi river and Elbasan, the nearest
natural defense northward. The evac-
uation Of Bera, announced from Vien-
ma, probably was due to the Italian
progress around Fieri and the French
advance between Lake Ochrida and
the Tormorica valley, up which the
Austrians also are retreating, pursued
by the Allied forces.
The fighting in the Macedonian the
atre has spread eastward and the Bull
garians are making strong ATTACKS
north OF Monastir. apparently to draw
Allied attention from Albania. The
Bulgar attacks were repulsed with
heavy losses by the French. There
Is great danger that the Bulgarian line
east OF Lake Ochrida will be outflank-
ed should the Allied forces reach the
Skumbi at Elbasan.
French Improve Defenses.
The French continued their JAM
ming tactics on the westerly side OF
the Marne salient southwest of Sois-
sons, capturing the town and railway
station Of Corey and the farm and
Chateau Of ST. Paul, south of the city.
The gain Of ground serves still fur
ther to protect the forest of Villers
Cotterets otherwise called the Retz
foresD which forms a bulwark of the
defense Of Compeigne the important
French baee and railway junction ON
the east of that town. '''.'"r n7s =. .
British Push Forward.
On the British front south of the
Somme, Field Marshal Sir Douglas
Haigs infantry pushed still further
forward and won additional holding
ground east of Villers Bretonneux, on
the ridge which stands as al import
ant eastward defense of the Allied
base at Amiens.
Raiding. operations comprised the
major portion Of the activities on Il
remainder Of the Allied front.
Drive Continues 4 Days.
The operation on the French front,
resulting in the capture of Corey,
gains in interest, in that it represents
a continuation Of a series Of important
local attacks on this front between the
Aisne and the Marne, begun by Gen
eral Petain four days ago. 1t is along
this line that the Allies apparently
count it quite probable that the Ger.
mans will resume their offensive.
