quaint the Kaiser with the progress of the American war plans. We thoroughly ap- prove of this policy and we have advised our correspondents in London, Paris, New York and Washington, also at Buena, Me Kinlcy, Harah and Orchardville not to send us a line that might in any way be helpful to the hated tyrant. However, we think the government ought not to contine the censorship to the big publications The little fellows, like the Saturday Evening Post and the Review of Reviews, which are constantly publishing the most interesting news about our coming air fleet that IS to knock the spots out of the Germans, ought to be warned. Who can tell when some pro-Gcrman will get hold of one of these publications and slip it through to Berlmi We are holding the lid down as tightly as possible, but some of these small fry ought to be muzzlcd, lest per chance the beans be spilled in spite of our cfforts.-Toppenish (Wash) Review.

As a matter of principle We have never favored muzzImg the press, but the fact remains that many American papers just now should not only be muzzlcd, but they should be buckcd and gagged. More abso- mtc 'rot" is being published these days than ever before in the history of the couu- sensational. hair-raisng twaddle for which there is mo foundation whatever and which the publishers themselves do not b. Icvc. Such headlines as "The War Is Lost Unless We Feed the Allies, and "The Whole World Will Be Starving Within Two Years, America Is Falling Down in Equippiug Her Army" and kindred start ling statements are wholly out of place at the present time. If Americans read such >tamcuts in German papers they would immediately say the Germans were becom- ing pauicky and that the end of the war was in sight. What effect do such state mcnts in American papers produce on the Germans! They very naturally conclude that America is panicky without even crossing the threshold of the war zone. Yet America is not panicky. The only thing wrong with us is that we must be sen sational and we are not particular as to how we spring sensation.

AIDES
 There is something crcditablc to the United States in the great traffic blockade which has hampcrcd the transportation of war supplies lately and that is the fact that American manufacturers have turned out war supplies faster than they could be han dIrd b, the transportation companies, and this applies to those operating both on land aud sea- although it is the latter in which tlc carrying facilities are most lacking.
 An over the United States the motto Speed Up" has been adopted by tine man ulartmcrs and so strictly has the motto been adhered to that the output of these factories. even where ears have been avail able for its transportation to seaports, has been SO great that millions of tons of 1t now jr in the comtry's ports awaiting trans uor-a.iou to it's destination in Europe.
 It is this condition which has switched thc fom-mmtc speakers throughout Am erica from other important but less urgent measures Co the crying need of more ships Tor carrying supplies of all kinds to our al- lies m the war zone. Ship builders are more needed in the United States today than .radcsmcu of any other class regard Ics, O. the fact that new Shipyards by the score have been opened mp and placed in operation within the past few months. In round numbers sovcuty-four new ship wards have started in this country recently and thc capacities of many formerly in cN- is.curc have been materially increased. But as it takes longer to build ships to carry war supplies than is required for the man u.actwc of the supplies. the result is trof- lr congestion to the extent that 1t iS be- coming very serious and is serving Co pro long thc war
 But American rcsoWccfulucSs and m- .uWty will solvc-is now solvng-thc transportation problem and present con ditiou> are being rapidly strengthened out with the result that before many weeks thc rulI output of the American war mmi- ious factories. running at their full capac- l.Ds. win be spccdcd ou their way from Ann cricau ports as soon as they are delivered there from the factories.
 The mobilization problem, ten times greater than America ever before attempt cd. has been and is being handled with a dispatch that is the wonder of the world. Her food problem, feeding over one hun drcd million of her own people and nearly a, many more in Europe, is one of the most gigantic ever undertaken, but it will be successful and, being successful, it will win tlc war for the allies
 There is nothing too big for Americans to undertake and, a problem once under taken by them, is as good as solved. Some people, ch!

It has been reported that some business men were inclined to rebel and one has gone so far as to refuse to comply with the local food administrators request. Of course it is a mans privilege not to comply with a request or law, but nobody shall bear the consequences but himself. When man disobcys a law, he is punished. In these troublesome days, request made by the proper authority to do certain act, provided there is no discrimination, is a law and disregard of that request is punishable. If. after am investigation of such a report, a delinquency is apparent, the Territorial Council of Defense should make am example that others may beware; and there should be no monkey business either.-ketch- ikan Miner.

fOr the l919 AgricuItural Pc.

preparing TOT the IVY Agricultural FRO
gram.
The farm bureaus of Vermont are TAX
ing the first steps in preparation for the
1919 agricultural production program.
This first step is to increase the member
ship in the farm bureaus. The average
membership in the twelve farm bureaus
now in operation in Vermont is 507; Or
ange county leading with a membership
of 945. Farmers are rapidly learning
that the farm bureau is their organza-
ton and that it is through the farm bu-
reau that they can secure great many
privileges which heretofore have been
available to them, but not so readily rec
ognized nor so accessible By discussing
their problems in community meetings
held by the farm bureaus, they are
making agricultural and home develop
ment programs.
Under this plan, which is fostered by
the United States department Of agricul-
ture and the agricultural extension serv-
ice of the University of Vermont and
state agricultural college, the farmers
are not told what they should do, but
are encouraged to study the problems of
their own communities under the guild
ance of the county agricultural agents
and the home demonstration agents and
to call upon the above sources for such
assistance as they can render
