MANY POTATOES
STILL ON FARMS
Over 100000 Bushels Could
Be Put on the Markets
if 1t Is Desired

According to the Department of
Agriculture there were over 10000
600 bushels of potatoes held by
farmers and growers in Pennsylva-
mia on March 1. The department has
issued a bulletin giving estimates
where they are held and calling at
tention to the advantages of prompt
sales after Il winter in which they
could not be moved.
The bulletin says:
Several counties show fifty per
cent. of the crop in storage by grow
crs while the lowest figures show
twenty-five per cent in a few coun-
ties. The reports show that Lehigh
couty growers had on March l, 449,-
502 bushels or 27 per cent. of the
crop while Lancaster county growers
had 429, ,462 bushels or 20 per cent
of the crop. Schuylkill couty had 35
per cent. or 429.172 bushels and
York county % per cent. or 403, 432
bushels.

SEEKING
FREE TRADE PACTS

BueBos Aires (by maiI).-Argentfna
has taken the lead in an effort to per-
suade the South American republics to
tear down their ts-ff walls and open
themselves to free trade among hem
selves, arguing that such action would
make them commercially independent
OF other countries In Europe and North
America. This step has been taken in
spite OF the fact that until now the
Argentine's principal source of revenue
has been Its customs houses.
To show its sincerity, the Argentine
government has introduced a bill IN
congress providing for the opening Of
diplomatic negotiations with all the
neighboring countries for the adoption
OF treaties providing for the free ex-
change OF the products Of each coun-
Il the DE- + Of Argentina i. to re-
move the fiscal barriers which in he
past have estranged the nations Of
South America and restricted com
merce between them, making them de-
pendent on overseas nations.
A years trial OF free trade with PERI,
has led Argentina to seek similar ar
rangements with the ether republics.
The Peruvian legation in Buenos Aires
and h Argentine consulate i'm Lima
nave acted az commercial agents for
their respective countries with the re-
suit that today there ID q regular trade

CANADA'S new
DEVELOPMENT
After the War a Period of Pros
perity.

It Is evident that the Government OF
the Dominion in It's programme Of re
construction and development is I'M
~dertakfng q work OF tremendous fm-
portance. There will be available the
labor for work that has been silent
since 1914, and the rehabilitation Of
this labor will entail the thought and
energy of most capable heads. The
transition period from war to peace
Will be rapid and thorough, and, in
stead of Canada sinking into a state
of %lethargy, there will be a continued
period of wakefulness that Will give
employment to the unemployed, and
render to the capitalist and producer
ample return for his money, effort
and enterprise.
The agricultural potentialities OF
the great Canadian Westpossess Him
liable acres Of the best of soil. capable
OF producing millions Of bushels Of
the best Of grain. The cost of grow
ing this is lower than any place on
the continent. There will be q greater
demand than ever for these lands, the
consequent production will be heavier
and the profits attractive. Cattle
industry will be one Of the chief de-
velopments, and the encouragement Of
1t will lie in the continued high prices
that beef products will bring. Euro.
pean countries have been depleted Of
cattle, and the demand for beef, cattle
and dairy products will tax the efforts
81 the producer for years to come.
Western Canada offers ~unequaled
opportunities for development in this
line. .. s4e.s s.sss ~sea,
In the Canadian West plans are be-
ing laid for the development of cleo
ttical power which can be produced
cheaply. There Is an abundance OF
coal and water power that could be
used in developing this useful energy.
What cheap power produced in this
way will mean to the farmer and de-
velopment Of Industrial enterprises
cannot be estimated in figures.
More extensive development OF the
water power ut Niagara, on the St.
Lawrence and. at waterfalls ill over
the country, is ready to be launched.
Peace will see new mine fieias
opened up, and it is equally certain
that shipbuilding, railway equipment,
steel production, and many of the in.
will go forward with a

Gentlemen of the Congress:
"1n these times of rapid and
stupendous change it will in some
degree tighten my sense of re-
sponsibility to perform in person
the duty of communicating to you
some Of the larger circumstances
Of the situation with which it is
necessary to deal.
"The German authorities, who
have at the invitation of the Su-
preme War Council been in COM
munication with Marshal Foch,
have accepted and signed the
terms Of armistice which he was
authorized and instructed to COM
municate to them."
Here the President read III.
terms of the arnsistice.l
"The war thus comes to an end:
for having accepted these terms of
armistice, it will be impossible
for the German command to re-
