Exploiting the brutality Of
"lower classes" is dangerous BUSH
ness. Soon or late the upper
classes" realize it. 1t was the
fashion in Russia, when the igno-
rant mob grew restless, to start a
Jewish massacre. Numbering and
robbing Jews seemed highly anus
ing to grand dukes at the top of
Russian society, and it pleased the
wild beasts at the bottom.
Those wild beasts never failed
to respond to an invitation to kill.
The other day, from a Russian
we'll at Allispavisk were taken the
dead bodies of five Russian grand
dukes. They had been thrown into
the we'll alive, then slaughtered
with hand grenades thrown in on
top of them.
The beasts al the bottom were
again amusing themselyes-bu
not with Jews this time.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1918-11-19

In the forest where the Car
was killed, sixty-five other bodies
lay uDburied on the ground. These
were not bodies OF Jewish women
or children killed for a difference
in religion. They had formerly
been the leading citizens Of
Ekaterinberg. slaughtered chiefly
because they wore black coats and
belonged to the educated class.
Among them doubtless were
some that had thought It not a
bad idea to turn the mob aloose
on the Jews occasionally.
do not do TO others what you
would not like them to do to you"
says Confucius wisely and tenn
perately.
II the Russian upper class had
followed that advice they wouldn't
have the beasts at the bottom do
ing now to them the things that
they were taught to do to helpless
Jews.

/ have seen between two and three
hundred mothers massed outside a
scho0IyaTd gate screaming and tug
ging at the Boobies" to let them en-
ter. In the wrecked schOolhOuse were
the torn and battered bodies of school
children. A Hun raider had bombed
them.
In London, on the Strand, I have
seen row after row OF stretchers bear
ing the broken bodies Of men and
women on a street streWn with shat
tered glass. These were civilians, not
soldiers; sleeping in their homes when
the building fell.
These things I have seen. I have
heard all night long q terrific cannon
ade in the worlds greatest city, the
burst of shrapnel and the sound Of
bombs. Outside my window I have
heard the cries and means Of dying
human beings, victims Of the enemy in
the air.
This is not talk. These are things I
have seen and heard; and yet I have
seen and heard SO little it is hardly
worth talking about.
But it makes ne want to buy Lib

sent TO army camps in the states of
Oregon and Washington. General HOl-
way said the men would be drawn prin-
cipally from the western and northern
parts of the state. He declared that
he was Of the opinion that none would
be taken from Milwaukee. The near
by camps are filled close to capacity,
General HOlWay explained, and for this
reason the war department had deter
mined upon sending the Wisconsin Sc
lects TO the Western states This con-
tiugent will 90 under the second call,
as most of the 200 men who will
start for camp March % will be men

HOW How WTo>GR 3!
WV Spinach. Up

Spinach thrives in a rather cool eli
mate and attains it's best development
in the middle South, where it can be
grown in the open ground during the
winter. Farther north 1t is necessary
to protect the plants during the win
ter with a mulch Of straw or leaves.
To produce good spinach rich loan
which will give the plants a quick
growth is required. Fall planting is
to be recommended wherever this is
possible, as the fall-pianted spinach is
not as much inclined to go to seed as
that planted in the spring. One ounce
Of seed is sufficient for a 100-foot row,
and this crop may be sown in drills
about 1 foot apart.
Spinach is an easily grown garden
crop, and there is perhaps no other Of
its kind that will give as good salts
faction. II gathering spinach the en-
tire plant is removed rather than mere
ly cutting off the leaves. The larger
plants are selected first, and the
smaller ones are thus given a chance
to develop-U. S. Department of Ag-
riculture.
