GEORGE BRANDES-"BAAL
TCHUVAH."

George Brandes, the distinguished
Danish author, has become "Baal
Tchuvah" and is throwing himself
into Jewish work with great zeal.
At a banquet held in Copenhagen
on Dec. 10th, he told how Theodore
Herzl had tried twenty years ago to
interest him in Zionism and how he
had rejected the great Jewish lead
er's overtures. With the progress
of time, he said, he has come to the
realization that this impractical
scheme" is the only solution of the
Jewish problem, and indeed, the i'm
perative one He greeted the OPP
portunity that has presented for the
creation of a national Jewish home
land in Palestine, and said that he
regards the British Declaration as
one Of the few rays Of sunshine that
have penetrated the worlds gloom
during the past three years. Estab-
lished in it's old home, the Jewish
people, according to George
Brandes, will have happy future
and will again become a great spirit
ual force.

HEBREW UNIVERSITY IN
PALESTINE.

One of the functions of the Pales-
tine Commission will be to establish
a Hebrew University in jerusalem.
The British members of the Commits
sion, who have already departed for
Palestine will put the project into
operation as soon as they arrive.
The finest site near Jerusalem on
the Mount of Olives, has been Sc
cured for that purpose.
In connection with the Hebrew
University, the British Palestine
Committee has issued the following
statement:
"Other peoples are discussing by
what arms they will be equipped in
the world after the war. The SYM
Dol of the new Jewish Palestine is a
noble house of learning, sanctuary
of the Jewish passion for spiritual
values, for intellectual truths, a
centre from which once again the
law shall go out from Sinai and the
Word of God from jerusalem. There
can be no more Illuminating way Of
teaching the world that a Jewish
Palestine will be no seat of chauvin-
ism and no house of Mammon, but a
hearth of that civilization which
spells peace and humanity"

bear true faith and allegiance to
the United States. What did that
mean? That you would set about
earnestly growing an American soul
and put away your German soul.
That is what your oath of allegiance
meant.
Have you done that? | do not
think you have. You have cherished
everything German and stifled every
thing American. You have preached
German, prayed German, read Ger
man, sung German. Every thought
Of your mind and every emotion of
your heart thru all these years has
been German. Your body has been
in America, but your life has been
in Germany. If you were set down
in Prussia today you would be in
harmony with your environment. It
would fit you just as a flower fits
the leaf and stem of the plant on
which it grows.
"You have Influenced others who
have been under your ministry to
do the same thing. You said you
would cease to cherish your German
soul, and that you would begin to
build up inside of you an American
soul. That meant that you would
begin the study of American life and
history; that you would open your
mind and heart to all Of its influences
that you would try to understand it's
ideals and purposes and love them;
that you would try to build up inside
of yourself whole group Of feelings
for the United States, the same as
you felt toward the fatherland when
you left Germany.
There have been good many
Germans before me in the. last
month. They have lived in this coun-
try, like yourself, ten, twenty, thirty,
forty years and they have had to
give their evidence thru an interpre-

of the trial. AS l looked at them

Mrs. ]. R. Arkoosh, in an affidavit
says that Horace Mann, the organ

STILL BAWLING
THE EDITOR OUT

Teaching him the Mysteries of Corn.
e. j. and Mrs. Gardner came down
from the Presto bench Monday and
Mr.. Gardner brought half a dozen
ears of corn to show to Editor Trego.
Mr.. Gardner is dry farmer living
just north of the big bend of the
Blackfoot river about four miles east
of Frank Just's home. He has been
doing something a little different,
and we want all you dry farmers to
sit up and take notice.
Mr. Gardner has discovered rem
edy for the man who wants to raise
wheat according to the dry farm,
summer fallow method but who at
the same time doesn't want to wait
and just get crop every two years.
In other words, the man who is in
a hurry to get results, and wants to
do twenty years dry farming in ten,
and beat time and interest and every
thing, has asformula that will satisfy
him. Sit down, now, don't get ex-
cited!
Summer following consists Of let
ting the soil lie in the sun one sum-
mer, and stirring it occasionally or
emi-occasionally, to get the air into
it and get the weeds out of it, Are
you beginning to guess the secret?
Well, your idea is warm
Raise crop of wheat one year
and then summer fallow the next.
While you are stirring the ground
that off year, slip seed corn into it
and play trick on the landscape.
Corn has to have the ground stirred
about it few times to make it grow
well, If you can raise the crop of
corn without letting the wheat know
it, it is all right with the wheat.
1t follows the theory that what the
eye doesn't see, the heart doesn't
grieve over. And that isn't all;
Gardner is getting away with the
deal. He planted corn on the wheat
ground on the 5th of June and had
ripe corn on the 9Th of September
He planted corn on the 26th of June
and had it ripe on the 26th of Sep
TENDER. Ninety day corn Ell?
Mr.. Gardeners corn is of the flint
variety developed from crossing
eight-row flint corn with what they
call hog corn, and he gets from eight
to twelve rows, with wide grains,
AOAS edIS anu grains growing right
to the end of the cob--no camou-
fiage. In 1916 he raised 40 sacks
per acre, meaning a two-bushel sack
containing bushel Of shelled corn.
In 1917 he raised 30 sacks per acre,
and In 1918 he did not get a good
stand, and it made only II sacks |
per acre. Sit down. The best is
yet to come!
! Maybe you think when he got |
down to twelve sacks he was dis
Not he. Did you ever
see a dry farmer discouraged? Right
alongside of this corn land he sowed |
dry farm wheat where he had for
merIy raiser successful crops, and
10, he got only three bushels per
acre. II he had not planted the
ding-busted corn this year he might
have been discouraged, but the corn
proved that It can make a crop under
lryer conditions than wheat can.
Now he has found q way to fool the
