LABORITES ENDORSE
WILSON PEACE AIMS
British Conference Calls on
Allies TO Formulate Terms.

Nottingham, Jan. 24.-The annua.
ed here.
During the session resolutiC Il
welcoming the statements of the pre-
mier, David Lloyd George and P-esi-
dent Wilson, and calling upon the al,
lies to formulate their war aims at
the earliest possible moment was
adopted.
In his address, Frank Purdy, the
president, said if Germany would not
accept the terms President Wilson
David Lloyd George and the Labor
party had laid down as the minimum,
I'VE mus: fight on"
I'VE see no signs yet" he declared,
'that Germany and her allies are will
ing to accept these principles"
In view Of the declaration Of Presi,
dent Wilson and Lloyd George, Ger,
many could claim no longer she was
fighting a defensive war.
These statements were received
with some dissent Cries Of "Oh!"
and applause.
Whatever might be the views as TO
the effect the Russian revolution had
exerted on the course Of the war, the
British workers welcomed it heartily
because it had released the Russian
people from thraldom.
eff our responsible government and
its allies had endeavored to appreci,
ate the real meaning of the revolu
ton they would not have been SO
lukewarm toward that great event"
he added
The government had sent Arthur
Henderson, then a member of the
cabinet, to Petrograd, but had declin.
ed to accept his advice. Even now
there was no great anxiety to recog-
uize those who were representing the
Russian people.
"Will Germany agree to evacuate
Belgium. northern France and the
other territories over which she holds
sway"
There were cries of Eyes, and Ire
land" Mr.. Purdy added:
eve appreciate the lofty ideals
which induced the United States to
toin the allies"

IMPROVING THE
1918 WHEAT CROP
Top OresS With Manure and Fer
tilizer and Increase the
Yield.

The bureau of crop estimates OF the
United States department Of agricul.
ture reports an increase Of four per
cent in the acreage of fall-Sown wheat.
as compared with that sown in the fall
of 1916. This would be highly en-
couraging. were 1t not for the fact
that much of this is in poor condition,
is in fact ten per cent under the aver
age condition of the last ten years. Tn
less the coming spring is remarkably
favorable for the development Of win
ter wheat, the 1918 crop will be even
smaller than that of 1917.
We have but one more chance for
increasing our 1913 bread grain crop.
and this is by top-dressing either with
fertilizer or with manure. In the lat
ter case the work may be done at once,
the manure being spread thinly and
evenly, preferably with the manure
spreader. Manure so used protects
thp wheat from winter injury, and at
the same time stimulates growth In
the cold weather of early spring. Every
day gained ut this season is just so
much crop insurance.
When fertilizer is used it must be
applied just as growth starts in the
early spring 1t is then that available
plant food is most needed, and when
It is most efficient in causing the
plant to "tiller out" and increase the
number of seed-bearing stems. Fertf-
lizer used at this time may change
crop failure to crop success. and is
certain to give results when the wheat
was sown late. or when it was Sown
with an insufficient supply Of plant
food.

Cactus Candy.

Louisiana sugar cane planters have
evolved a plan for manufacturing
candy from the spinelesS cactus. In
the process the peel of the plant is
removed, dipped into hot molasses
and coated with granulated or pow
dered sugar. The result is confec-
ton of rich and delicious flavor.
So successful have been the expert
ments with the new sweet that cane
planters are now growing cactus,
which formerly was utilized, when
used at all, for cattle fodder. Planters
can in this way furnish plenty of raw
material for the new product.
Another important result in the
making of what some enterprising adj
vertiser may call 'kaktus-kandy,"
says an exchange, is that sugar mills
which have heretofore been idle for
nine months In the year can now use
part of their equipment in the candy
manufacturing industry.

LIGHT and Thought.

Not all thought is travelling. The
supposition that when one thinks of
the moon ones thought travels to the
moon is mistake, for the thought is
formed in the mind and remains there.
The time taken to think of anything"
declares a writer, occupies some
small fraction of a second. Light
travels" at the rate of about 1S6,0Oo
miles second, and If it is thought
which travels In what is called tele-
patty 1t would have to travel at the
same speed because ether, the medium
which transmits light, would also
transmit the brain vibrations that ac-
company thought. The telepathic the
DRY of Thought which travels has
been objected to on the ground that
after travelling considerable distances,
such as are sometimes claimed for
telepathic communication, the brain
vibrations would be so diffused and
weakened as to make no impression.

NEITHER PENCIL NOR PEN
Writing Implement, Made Of Mixture
Of Wax and Ground Pumice
Stone, Recent Invention.

A writing implement composed Of a
mixture of wax and finely ground pu-
mice stone containing particles of ink
has been invented by William c. Geer
of Akron, o., to take the place of ordi-
nary and fountain pens, pencils, cray
ons and all other writing implements,
say the Popular Science Monthly. AS
the body Of the new writing device is
composed of a mixture Of wax and
pumice stone, which is easily worn
away when rubbed against paper
surface, the inventor claims that the
cells of ink intermixed with the wax
and pumice stone will also be liber-
ated, giving a uniform supply of ink.
The device is made by mixing the
wax, pumice stone and ink together.
When it is heated to the proper tenn
perature it is suddenly immersed in
cold water. This chills and sOlidifies
the wax mixture, producing body
having a cellular structure. each cell
seing filled with. ink.

Turks Sought British Aid.

.iEALIt! n..T NAME WEALTH
20 Think New Thoughts and Init
ate New Plans important.

Probably the majority of men do not
know what real health means. 1t
means more than the capacity to sit
UP and eat, to walk, to board q car and
to bend over a desk. Real health
means more than the real ability do
the same thing day after day.-Real
health means degree of stirring, nerv-
Gus energy that enables to think
| new thoughts, conceive new plans and
initiate new enterprises. Superb
bundant nervous energy is back of ex-
ceptional mental activity. 1t is the
basis of all those qualities which are
| most essential in the struggle for sue
cess.
1t is not sufficient to have health
that will enable you to do common
place days work, Hugo Masters writes
in Physical Culture. The right kind
of health should give you the energy
with which to perform far more than
days work, If necessary, even from
cumulative standpoint. 1t is conf
| monty the man with an unlimited ca
pacity for work who gets on. He is
able to work long hours without firing.
Successful men invariably enjoy the
possession of this degree of nervous
endurance or working endurance.
But it is not this that is most i'm
portant. The possession of energy is
essential, not so much for the sake of
the capacity for long hours of work.
but on account of the quality of work
which it enables one to perform.
Quality of effort is more important
than quantity of work and the greatest
value of unlimited energy lies in Civ
ing one the capacity for concentration,
the capacity for an intensity of effort
that is beyond the average man.
