A TIME FOR PERFORMANCE.

New York Sun: Not for the first
time in their history the American
people confront the new year with
little need for good resolutions and
with a paramount and overshadowing
necessity fer good performance.
The good resolutions adopted on
April 6, 1917, by the millions of loyal
Americans have been translated into
some splendid achievements. 1t ia
something to have lent nearly S.
00,000,0 900 to win the war. 1t is some
thing to have placed Pershing and hi
host in France; something, too, To
have half million and more almost
ready to join him, to have hammers
ringing in the shipyards and over 4
thousand ships to help safeguard the
ocean lanes; something epochal to
have unified and transferred to gov
eminent control for the war period a
quarter of million miles of railway
system.
There are things undone and things
that should have been done and things
that have been bungled These will
be mended.
The daily Gate City and constitution-Democrat. (Keokuk, Iowa) 1916-1922, 1918-01-08
KEEP ON KNITTING.

Answering flood Of inquiries, Harvey u.
Gibson of the American Red Cross urges the
women Of the country to keep right on knitting
as heretofore. So great is the demand Tor
sweaters for our soldiers and sailors that the
Red Cross was compelled to purchase five hun
dred and fifty thousand of them during the last
few months. Even if our army and navy were
fully supplied, ceaseless urgent calls for sweat
ers and other knitted articles come from
abroad where destitute civilian populations
men, women and children-face the blasts OF
winter scantily clad and with little fuel to keep
them warm.
In the light Of this statement by Mr.. Gibson
as to the number of sweaters bought, the posi-
ton taken by Secretary Daniels is difficult to
understand The probable fact is that he did
not realize that sweaters were so much needed
and desired and that his somewhat loose and
foolish utterance on the subject glorlfylng his
department of the government as having done
leverything for the comfort of the men IN the
service that could be done was largely inspired
lby his antipathy to the Navy League. Through
this organization the Red Cross women dis
itributed their knitted goods up to the time the
secretary of the navy had a disagreement with
the president of the league. Now the secretary
has organized ''woman's advisory committee
en- naval auxiliaries'' as a rival to the Navy
League and asks the knitters to distribute
their garments through this new channel.

LABOR FOR THE FARMER.

Rochester Democrat Chronicle:
Senator Borah is early in the field
with warning that disaster may
overtake us next season if there is
shortage of agricultural labor. The
country's necessities will be greater
next year than they were this, if the
war continues, for we shall have an
immense army to make provision for,
to say nothing of the needs of the
allies Senator Borah is quoted as
saying: Now that the boys are
being taken from the farm under the
draft, the situation is such that you
cannot find labor to plant and GER
tainly not sufficient labor to take
care of the crops. Unless the labor
situation is changed through some
method there will be vast decrease
in the crop acreage in the west next
year through inability to plant or
SOW or take care of it." Obviously
the governrn ent must exercise care
| in conscripting young men who have
been employed on farms, and also
90 afield for the purpose of rounding
| up additional help Efforts to in
| crease crop production have met
with remarkable success in England
although the country has been prac.
! tically stripped of able-bodied men of
military age. Our statesmen should
study the methods employed there.
These consist principally in mobiiiz.
| ing women for work in the fields
and in the introduction on an enor-
nous scale of labor-saving ma
chiuery.

FOOLS HENS BY ELECTRIC LIGHT

A writer in Farm and Fireside
tells of a seventeen year old boy
who is making good profits from
hens. The youth says, In explaining
how he makes his hens work over
time:
"'Every afternoon at 4:30, when
Biddy began to chant The Shades OF
Night are Falling Fast and prepared
to turn in, put one over on her by
lighting couple of those daylight
style of gasoline lanterns. The
scheme worked like charm. The
hens stayed right on the job till S:oU,
when I turned out the lights. at
$50 a. M. lighted them again and
back they came to the floor litter,
scratching away for dear life. kept
the lanterns burning In the morning
till s a. m. Some of my nefghbors
prophesied dire calamity-said my
hens were bound to die, being forced
to go contrary to nature like that;
but so far I have not lost any to
speak of, and believe it's only a
question of time before the use of
art.-clal light, during the short win
| ter days, to make hens lay will be-
come a general practice
! young Goelzer didn't have just
what he wanted to breed from last
spring, so he bought 1000 day-old
chicks, but he is now trap-nesting
and wedding out the inefficfencies.
and next spring he expects to hatch
his own chicks.
Eyes, I've done very well for a
beginner, the experts tell me- Roy
admitted modestly. I've got layout
here hiatt cost between $500 and
| S400 and 240 hens and as many
more pullets, worth S1.50 apiece
