ernment. There is but one solution to
the puzzle and that is for steps to be
taken to conscript experienced farm
labor.
We have drafted cur young men into
army and navy service and are putting
them on the battlefield. To keep them
there and to make it possible for them
to fight they must be fed.
The farmers next season must pro-
duce greater crops than ever in the
past and to be able to do this they
must be given labor-sound and cap
able labor. There are thousands OF
young men born on the farms who have
been lured away by high wages to
manufacturing occupations. The gov
ernment should weed out the expert
enced men and see that they return TO
that occupation on which the country
will depend during the next year.
The time for action is now. Every
week which passes brings nearer the
season Of active farm work and this
season is short at the longest--when
the fate of a nation hangs on 1t.

Of Russia is evidently what has caused
the pOstponement or entire abandon
ment Of the advertised drive in France,
and II is as likely as not that If there
is any drive 1t will not be a German
one. Germany is in the position Of a
bandit who, preparing TO enter on an
arduous and doubtful combat with an
armed traveller for the possession Of
his wallet. suddenly sees another tro-
veler drop a bushel basket crammec
with treasure.
The mad haste with which Germany
marches eastward. the grabs she makes
simultaneously in all directions, are
easily accounted for. She must seize all
the Russian plunder before Spring and
the re-aWakening OF the west. ANY eX-
cuse Is good enough TO hang a dog.

SPRING FARM WORK.

From the Laurel Leader.
There is one great question staring
the farmer in the face at this period Of
the year when he is planning for his
next seasons work.
This is the shortage Of labor.
Just what will the farmer be able to
do during the next year in the matter
of raising large crops? The demand
viii be even greater in the year TO come
than it has been during the last sea
son. The United states will find that
the output must be many times larger
than ever. Europe will produce little, II
anvthing. and in addition TO supplying
the allied countries the United States
win have thousands Of its own men to
provide for IN Europe.
The average farmer today Is wearing
a frown Of worry because he cannot
at this time see his way clear to pro-
duce as large a crop as in the past. He
will not be able to secure proper helr
unless some immediate and drastic ac-
ton is taken by the United States gov

President. The people. he says, are pre-
pared for "a Ions. cruel" war. But"
ne adds. they would not proong IL
one single moment beyond that term
when it would become either useless
or unjust"
When, short Of complete military
victory, would our war against Ger
many become "either useless or un-
iust?"
What does His Emlnence mean 10y
that?
And what does ne mean by the OK
hortiye expectation at the end that the
people will continue TO support the
President?
The great danger Of Mr.. Wilson's
peace offensive against Germany be-
gins TO appear.
Since February n we have been
thinking more Of peace and less Of war.
Peace negotiations, as every cue
knows, arc taking place in the open
air We are casting upon the German
people n propaganda Of paci0sm aud
revolt That is all very we'll for those
who believe that the German people,
who are thinking in terms Of victory,
can be moved in that way, or that
Austria can be converted alone.
The perious fact is that peace uego-
tiations at the same time are taking
place in our own thoughts.

MAKING Our SCHOOL
HOUSES EFFICIENT.
From the Snow Hill People.
In last weeks issue OF The People
we published an interesting c0mmuni-
cation from a correspondent regarding
the greater use Of our school buildings.
The hope was expressed that we would
take an interest in the matter. We are
interested and always have been inter-
ested. We have at different times pub
lished editorials recommending this
very thing, and we are indeed glad that
Mr.. Ocker has brot the issue TO. the
front again. We are gratined to know
that others are interested enough to
discuss the question thru the press,
and sincerely hope that by this means
the public can be generally aroused to
a proper appreciation Of their neglected
opportunities as are afforded by the
school houses.
As Mr.. Ocker well says, This ques-
ton is being agitated all over the coun-
try" by public spirited persons who are
aware OF the great possibilities lying
dormant In the little red school
