Time For the Farmers of
Missouri to "Wake Up"

AT the recent State COnven.
ton of the Missouri Farmers
Association held at Sedalia, the
more that 1000 school house
Farm Clubs of Missouri adopted
a powerful resolution against
the Single Tax Amendment
which is being promoted by the
so.called Homestead Land and
Loan League" and which will be
voted upon at the Forthcoming
election in November. The re.
solution points out that unless
the farmers of Missouri wake
up" there is the gravest danger
that this Amendment will be
come a law and that henceforth
the land owners of this State
will be compelled to bear prac.
tically the entire burden Of the
county and state revenue
catastrophe which would not
only compel farmers to pay mil.
lions in taxes in the years to
come which they do not owe but
which, still worse. would result
in a tremendous shrinkage in
farm land values.
Six years ago when we voted
upon a similar amendment the
farmers of the entire state were
aroused to a white heat and it
was overwhelmingly defeated.
This time, however, the amend
ment is comou1aged behind the
innocent sounding name of the
Homestead Land and Loan
League" and to put a sugar
coating on the pill" this "Leag.
ue" has also submitted q com.
panion amendment which pro
poses to provide farm loans at
3 per cent. 1t is the opinion of
many that this companion
amendment is intended merely
to throw farmers off their guard
and thus get them to swallow
the Single Tax amendment with
out knowing what they are
really doing. Should the Single
Tax become a law, it would mean
that the hundreds of millions of
dollers invested in Missouri in
great corporations, banks mer.
fcantile establishments and other
stocks, bonds and securities
would be exempt from the pay
ment of municipal, county and
state taxes. except as they are
subject to incidental income tax.
es etc. That Organized Labor
in the towns and cities will line
up almost solidly for the amend
ment there is little question
for as q class laboring men own
comparatively little land. The
refore if the farmers of. Nilsson
ri would defeat this menace, II
is high time that they arouse
themselves to the danger in eve
ny school district in the state
1t lie suggested that any farmer
who is willing to help oui IN this
fight get in immediate touch

the soldiers could hear the putting of
a little locomotive on the German mar
row-gauge railroad. Another night.
when men were crawling along silently
at the edge of the German barbed wire
they heard from the trenches Few
yards ahead the unloading of what
sounded like iron pipe. Now it is known
that what was heard was the unload
ing of the trench mortars, which the
Germans call "minenwerfer," or mine
throwers. The enemy then awaited the
first favorable wind blowing away from
their own trenches to send over the
deadly gas.
BE careful on gas attacks and see
that gas sentries are on the job every
possible" was the warning the major
gave every officer commanding the
platoon when l accompanied him
through the maze of trenches a few
nights ago.
Though the little weather vanes in
front of each sentry's dugout showed
that the wind was blowing away from
the German lines Tuesday night the
preparations evidently had not been
completed to meet gas attack. though
most of the hundreds of men in the

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE. February 2s.-Details have
been received of the death, after suffer-
ing horrible agonies, of eight Americans
and the disabling of sixty more in a
German gas attack in the early hours
of Tuesday morning on the American
sector northwest of Toul. Eighteen
hours after the rain of poisonous shells
stretcher bearers were still out. carry
ing victims from the labyrinth of
trenches Latest approved remedies
were applied TO the patients as soon as
they reached the hospital.
In this attack the Germans used a
new form of poison in their shells. The
heaviest casualties were among the in
fantrymen in the front line, but there
were other victims among the men in
the artillery and trench mortar bat
teries- Three men were overcome by
carbon dioxide gas from a charcoal
brazier in their own dugout, where they
had taken refuge.
Trenches 100 Yards Apart.
There is place on the front line
where the German and American
trenches are not more than 100 yards
