Editorial Shows Foes
Policy Is Short Sighted


The thought and purpose behind the
following editorial printed a few days
ago in an Eastern daily is big enough
to appeal to all Ninth District patriots.
The war has got to come to an end,
and Germany may as well recognize
the fact. Every hour of delay in rec
ognizing this is going to make matters
worse for her, every new atrocity she
perpetrates is going to add to the sum
of her retribution. Bombing hospitals
and sinking hospital ships, judicially
numbering Belgians and wringing their
last franc from them, may be German
policy, but it is uncommonly short
sighted policy. Just as Mr.. Wilson has
told the Wilhelmstrasse that Russia
must be left unpartitioned at the end
OF the war, SO Mr.. Balfour tells the
Wilhelmstrasse that the German ex-
actions levied in Belgium will have to
be made good at the end Of the war.
1T is, however, no good arguing with
nation running amuck. President
Wilson has realized this, and has de-
termined that the only way to deal
with the question is by making it plain,
once and for all, that the United States
is going to put an effort into the war
which will be made realizable at once.
The new draft which has been
planned, the new budget which has
been prepared, both. these and much
more than these are going to be the
immediate contribution Of the United
States to making the world safe for
democracy The soldiers of the United
States who have landed and fought in
Europe know well by this time the
war WEAKNESS of the Allies, who, for
four weary years, have fought the
armies of the new Attila backwards
and forwards from the frontiers of
Belgium to the gates of Paris. Grad
ually the people Of the United States,
too, are coming to understand this
and to understand what those four
years of struggle have meant to hui
man freedom. And so now Mr.. Will
son, without proclaiming the fact, but
by indications which any man may
read, makes it perfectly clear that the
bolt is going to fall on Germany 81

everything that we have, with the

Fourth Liberty Loan mas not been Of
fcially announced. 1t Is commonly
thought, however, in official circles
that the amount will be SIX billion
dollars. This is twice the amount
asked by the Government for the
Third loan.
What will this mean? It will mean
that there will have TO ce an IN
crease in the average amount given
by individual subscribers and also 4
largely increased number of subscriD-
ers. For the people Of the Ninth Dls-
trict to raise $2U0,000,000, it VIII
be necessary for every man, woman
and child to make an effort, to sacri-
fee, to give up many things they
would like to do or buy, and not only
to do their full duty, but make 1t
their business to see that every other
man, woman and child does his or
her duty.
The Ninth District occupies very
enviable position among the districts
of this great country. The Ninth Dis
trict must retain this position. In
order to do so, there must be put
forth a united, whole-hearted effort
"of all the people, by all the people.
and for all the people,"

SORGHUM 'LASSES SUPPLY
INCREASES 125 PER
CENT

If the sorghum mills can take care of
all the cane, Wisconsn's supply of sor-
ghum will be increased by $4,000 gal
Ions over that of last year, according to
estimates made by the government crop
reporting bureau.
There is no reason for Wisconsin
failing to be a leader in sorghum pro-
duction," says A. Ell. Wright of the
agronomy department at Madison,
Raising sorghum cane fits the crop ro-
tati0n and the type of farming prac-
ticed in Wisconsin. The climate of
Wisconsin, Minnesota and Michigan is
especially favorable to the production
Of good syrup because the cool weather
at harvest time prevents the souring of
the juice. The quality of the syrup in
these states is especially good because
there is no opportunity for crossing of
sweet sorghum cane with grain sOr-
ghum or broom corn"
Wisconsin increased her acreage of
sorghum cane this year 125 per cent
over 1917, although the average of the
United States is only SO per cent of last
year. The acreage in this state is now
about 226S acres. from which an esti-
mated yield of $4,000 gallons is ex-
pected. More than 31,000,0O0 gallons
of syrup is produced in the 81 states
that raise sorghum cane.

carried out throughout the Ninth Dis
trict ID undoubtedly responsible to
o large extent for the fine record
made. The natural energy and clear
sighted Americanism of the great ma
jority of its citizens is responsible for
the balance. Whatever the cause, the
results have put this district in a class
by itself. The managers of other dis
tricts look to the Ninth Federal Re-
serve District for information and in
spiration. They want to know how it
was done. Many of the rules laid
down by the Government for the
Fourth Liberty Loan campaign in
other districts are admitted to be un-
necessary in the Ninth. The authori-
ties in charge at Washington admit
that the men and women Of the North
west will do what is asked of them
in their own way, out will do it prompt
iy and efficiently.
From all this, it is evident that
great deal will be expected from the
Ninth Federal Reserve District In the
Fourth Liberty Loan campaign. The
standard set is SO high that it will
take extra effort to maintain it, That
means that all those who worked hard
during the Third campaign will nave
