A|RP[ANES ARE GOOD FOOD FIR
 TEXAS CATTLE

DALLAS, Tex, June 18.-Discovery that Texas cattle will eat the wings of an airplane if the machine is left un- guarded is one of the reasons why general order to stick with the machine, no matter what happens" is impressed upon every cadet aviator training in Texas. The cadets are instructed particularly never to leave their ships" in the field no matter how far from the travelled road.
 The fact that COWS have an appe- tite for airplanes was discovered only after one or two machines had suf- fered real loss from discriminating Texas cattle.
 The wide, supporting planes are covered with a cellulous preparation that makes them air tight, known in the technique of flying as dope" and dope" makes as tasty a meal for the cows as the bovines have discovered for long time. It softers under their tongues and cattle in their eagerness to obtain it, will chew the expensive linen planes to pieces to extract the last particle of dope" flavor.
 Another reason for tho order is that an airplane is valuable piece of prop erty with many detachable parts, of fering an attractive invitation te eloot- CTS if one were left unprotccsed' in lonely field or on a road.
 Souvenir hunters, however, are much more feared than thieves. Avi ators who have made forced landings while on cross country flights say it requires their utmost vigilance to keep curious spectators from break ing up their ships" and carrying them away piecemeal, 90 eager are the country people for souvenirs.
 An aviator landed recently in a wheat field not far from here. The curiosity and interest of the people were so great that in less than an hour the field was so covered that the owner of the ground had to ask the Dallas police to clear the field to pre- vent his growing crops from being stamped into a total loss.

DIAMOND NOTES

Connie Mack says he's satisfied with his present lineup.
 Greasy" Neale, the Reds outfielder, is stinging the ball hard.
 The Memphis Southern league club has taken on Joe Slattery to play first base.
 Miller Huggins has obtained a true line on his Yankees and is much en- couraged.
 Hubert Scott Perry, formerly with the Cubs, has accepted an offer from Connie Mack.
 Miller Krueger will make Otto Miller extend himself behind the bat for the Robins this year.
 Pirate fans are interested In Willie Stumpf, who, if he makes good, will cover short for Pittsburgh.
 
 Jack Powell's comeback stunt with the St. Louis Browns does not seem to have been much after all.
 -
 Joe Dugan, the Athletics young shortstop, is another Jack Barry, in the opinion of Quaker baseball sharps. Dave Shean, who will play second base for the Red Sox, Is not a Jack Barry, and Is notoriously weak at the bat.
 Manager Griffith still Is looking for a catcher to round out his staff, but has his eyes cast in no particular di- rection.
 
 Harry Wolfe, former Pirate short stop, but better known as a Duluth player, has been sold by Dreyfuss to Minneapolis.
 David Owl, a full-blooded Cherokee Indian, whose home is in North Caro- lima, has been elected captain of the Springfield (Mass.) college nine. Camouflage is quite popular these days. Some ingenious pitcher will soon be painting league balls so that they look like atmosphere.
 The Cardinals have young catcher named Benton. He is a powerfully built youngster and may land regular berth with the St. Louis club. Benny Kauff Is said to be longing for the khaki. His call in the draft is not due until late in the summer, but he is said to be contemplating an enlist ment.
 | Bates, former third baseman on the Philadelphia Athletics, tied the score for the Camp Dix team when they played the Princeton Aeronautics re- gently.

The Seed Sup ply

The important part the use of i'm
proved seeds of all farm crops has
played on the quality and yield has
been fully established by numerous
experiments and demonstrations in
recent years. 10 many instances
the increases due to use of good
seed have been very striking. There
will, no doubt, be scarcity OF high
grade seeds of several staple crops
next season. For this reason it is
worth while to call the attention of
every farmer to the necessity of Sc
lecting and properly storing a suffl.
cient supply for home use of every
kind of seed available. After de-
Gliding what crops are to be planted
next year. the farmer will do well to
locate and purchase seeds now. un'
less he has them OF his own grow
ing. Failure to order now may re-
suit in getting only inferior seeds
as the dealer usually fills early or,
ders with the best.
Monroe City Democrat. (Monroe City, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1918-12-20

The war has been the cause of
the death Of many thousands of our
splendid young men while in the
army. 1t has also caused the death
of a good many good people at
home through worry and oyerwork
and it will be the cause of the de ath
of many business concerns before
we get back to normal conditions.
The latter view is not pessimism.
1t is history and probabilities based
on past experience The business
of the cOuntry is on an int1ated
basis and in getting back TO solid
rock there are certain TO be numer-
Gus casualties.

An Army Record

The report of the Judge Advocate
General covers the record of an army
which is not like any other in this
country, or any other, ever raised.
1t is, therefore, impossible to make
comparisons between the discipline
of the army as revealed by trials
and convictions and any other army.
1t is only possible to say that the
record seems surprisingly good.
The report covers the whole of
the war up t. last July. In that
time there had been about 1900
convictions for military offenses.
and considerably more than half OF
these convictions were for disobe-
dience and for overstaying leave.
Both are serious military offenses.
but both are offenses of a kind that
would naturally be expected from
boys suddenly subjected to army
restraint and still undisciplined. In
an army largely filled by draft there
were but 1888 assertions. These
included the willful runaways, to-
gether with considerable number
of boys who were homesick rather
than defiant or vicious 1t is evil
dent that the draft stirred up only
negligible amount of opposition in
the minds of those who were liable
to it The drafted men were willing
and glad to 60
A surprising figure is the number
charged with drunkenness, which
amounted to.only TIA. There were.
of course, many thousands who got
over the alcoholic line, but apparent
ly the army was troubled with but
few defiant and persistent drunk
ards.
1t is gratifying to know that no
American soldier suffered death for
a military offense Death sentences
were imposed, but the fact that the
President felt at liberty to commute
the sentence in every c ase shows
that there was no conviction, at
any time covered by the report, for
any offense that could be consider
ed outright treason.

The Farm Today

Farming is being adapted more
and more to business basis, and
farmers are being recognized by the
business men of the cities as hav
ing real business standing. The ex
preston, Farmers and business
men," has become Farmers and
other business men," Olce the
young man learned the farming
trade by working mostly with his
father and brothers; now he learns
farming in that = way and also in
school and college. aud by the
study and practice of modern bust
nees methods. so that be becomes
a different type OF farmer from the
countryman of one or two genera
tons ago.
The demand of the present farm
er has brought about a new method
of dealing with him and supplying
him with any available Information
he may desire 1t is recognized
that it is not good practice to load
farmers with advice-to tell then
what to do and when to do it-and
this changed attitude brings more.
satisfactory relations to all con
cerned. 1t has resulted in freer
consultation and the arrival at safer
conclusions and more correct prac-
tees than could possibly come from
working separately.
Monroe City Democrat. (Monroe City, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1918-12-20
Farm Records

Farmers who are not keeping
farm records should seek the advice
of the county agent or State farm
management specialist as to a suit
able form of record and the method
of keeping it, and be ready at the
beginning of the farm year to make
prompt entries of things done dur
ing the year. This may be record
of just one enterprise or of all the
operations of the farm. The record
will be found very helping in find
ing out the strong and weak points
of the years business, and in de-
Gliding on any changes that may be
desirable in the organization and
management for the next year
Farmers who are already keeping
records should see that the accounts
are summarized and the new in
ventorles promptly entered for the
beginning of the next years bust
ness. Farmers who do not keep
books will find it difficult to make
proper returns under the Federal
income-tax law

Challenge of the Past

Most of us are good people. We
admit it. If we weren't we wouldn't
admit it as often as we do. The
trouble is to get other people to-. be-
lieve it.
When a man has first class op-
portunity of profitine by sinister
practices and don't take advantage
of it he doesn't need to loot his horn.
His record does that for him.
Your Uncle Sam is in the position
of that gentleman. He has had
many a chance of territorial expan-
sion at the expence of weaker neigh
bors, and has turned it down. He
isen't perfect. but his record is pref
ty good. and it will help him at the
peace conference. Not many of the
conferees will attend with as clear
a conscience
The world is fortunate in not hav
ing to depend on eeesswork in siz-
ing up Americas principles. 1t has
the same advantage with regard to
the British navy
If England were to assure us that
naval supremacy would be benevo
leDtly used we might be skeptical
in default of proof But England's
maritime strength has been exercis
ed with singular benevolence. No.
tably in the suppression of the slave
traffic where no mercenary motive
was even family perceptible. Just
exactly who has been victimized 10y
it is hard to say.
The meaning of that mysterious
expression. The freedom of the
SEAS" has never been completely
clarified. 1t doesn't need to be.
We know by experience what free
seas are. The seas have been free
to everybody since Noah went sail
ing, and it is rather late to start an
argument about it now.
II Uncle Sam contributes his vast
naval power to the policing of the
oceans no one will welcome him
more heartily than John Bull. But
Johnny is not likely to junk bis
dreadnaughts, and we should worry
while Johnny pays for them.
