Telegraaf, one of the leading Dutch newspapers, boldly announces, that Holland though small, shall not hes itate, to enter the great war, in de- fensse of her rights. The Telegraaf gays: "If it must be, our motto shall be, THEY SHALL NOT PASS; neither shall they nor their neccssi- ties. We want peace; we love peace but we love honor morc."
 Holland seems to have been pre- pairing for what she must have con- sidered Gs inevitable for previous to January nincteeth,, she had in- creased her army by 100000 men. According to information obtained from authoritative source in the last part of January, the Dutch army was comprised of 200 battalions of infantry, and may be put at between 5OO,000 and 60O,O00 trained men, exclusive of a number of classes that may be called up for training in case of emergency.

 In some few cases the enemy have successfully entered the Allied tren- ches but the next moment they are hurled back to the protection of their own positions, with fearful losses. only to repeat the attempt in the next hour or maybe within the next few minutes. At one time, the Germans, with great body of picked troops with a mighty rush, penetrated the Allied line to within the outskirts of VolmezeIe. which is two miles, to the South of Ypres.

WASHINGTON, D. c. Apr. 2S.- President Wilson today has made q statement in which he urges a speedy passage of the Minerals and Metals Bill
 This bill if passed, at this time, would give the President tne puwel, |, to fix all prices of metals which are now being used in the manu- facture of war material, and in this way do much to keep the govern ment from being robbed by the great mining corporations of the country. It would also have great tendency to stimulate production as the min ing corporations and the workers would then have a real basis upon which to fix their price and wage, and one which would not bo con tinrally fluctuating.
 A great amount of shipping which is now of the utmost importance, to both the United States and the Allies, is being used, in the trans portation of these much-needed met als from abroad and should this bill be passed it would offer immed- fate release of these ships for other purposes. It has been estimated that there are about 500,000 tons, of shipping used in the importation of metals from other countries.

BATTLE STILL RAGING

Ypres should be abandoned, it would not mean a serious military loss to the Allies.
 The Allies have regained most of the recently lost ground in the Han gard Villers BretonneuX sector and have been enabled to strengthen all recaptured positions, under the pro- lection of the French American heavy batteries, which have been pouring a steady rain of shells on the German positions.
 In Flanders. to the West of Monte Kennel, the French stormed and re- captured positions from Bocreto to Laclyte.
 Along the Allied line North of the River Lys the battle is raging. The enemy launching many strong infan- try attacks which failed, the attacking forces being driven back on every oc- casion with severe losses.

 (What a bunch of bunk. These spineless slaves of the ruling class are so weak kneed and brow beaten that they dare not call their life their own. They are not only afraid to assert that their life is their own and that they have any faith in the teaching of the first and greatest Revolutionist- Jesus Christ, but they even try to make up excuses, which are not even satis- factory to themselves, as to why they do not want to even lend their moral support to the saving of the life of a fellow worker. Such jelly fish as these have absolutely no place in the Labor Movement. They would not even be fit, to fill the useless position of warts on a pickle.-Ed)

LONDON, Apr. 2S.-Thc negotia- tions in progress between the gov vernments of Holland and Germany have reached a point of gravity. Germany, it is understood has al- ready made four demands upon the little kingdom, which are quite un- reasonable. Germany is now pre- pairing a much more drastic demand, to be presented to the Dutch govern ment. This will be a verbal de- -mand and If accepted by Holland will mean absolute neutrality. Ger many to place her own construction the meaning of absolute.
 Holland has already yielded to the demand that Germany be allowed to use the railroad across Limburg, which is the most southeasterly Province of Holland. The Dutch government stipulating however, that the railroad was not to be used for military purposes. This stipu- iation of course virtually restraints Germany from doing the very thing which she wishes and on that ac- count is very annoying, to say the least.
 The Dutch Military Authorities have withdrawn all leaves of absence from all military and naval service men.

OST OF THE weather since the battle began to clear WI the Rhems-Soissons salient has been suitable for the use of aeropanes The district involved is restricted and surrounded that the Allies are almost able to crunze completely from observation poss in anchored balloons and from high ground.
 The Allies must know whether the Germans are bringing into the salient taking them out It is asserted in re- peated despaches that the Grown Prince bringing in men, and his troops the shrinking circle have increased to more half million The number fixed in report at 516OO0.
 The salient shrunk to proportions hardly than 300 square miles, bounded three sides by the Allied armies and the fourth by the Vese river with Sossons filling the angle at the northwest corner
 Imagine territory about fourth the size of Fairfield County swept from side to side and from south north with gun fire three directions and with aeropane attack from the sky Consider this intensive bombardmen falling upon population six times dense square mile as the population of Fairfield county
 This fairly presents disastrous predcament in which the army of the Grown Prince finds itself
 Every shot from the Allies is worth two three shots from The Germans present first class target and shelter has almost entirely disappeared.
 All species of proecon except that of the deep dug out is diminished in practically to the vanishing point Dug outs adequate to shelter vast horde in limited space, cannot be readily created.
 When fire comes from direction only hill furnishes
 large of protection One side may be swept by d rect r but there will be shelter the other side and places where the fire cannot reach When fire comes from both sides the conditions altered The chances not double in favor of the Allies, but much more.
 Every road observed Every depot is watched Gun fire carefully the best targets and the execution is terrible All targets in reach every bit of ground in this man-rap of Foch sometimes from drecon and often from three directions.
 begins to look if the Grown Prince may not be able to stop his retreat at the Vesle He may have to Asne miles further back
 The German people will ask for explanations which 1t will be difficult for the High Command to give.
 Most apparently the fight in the salient is political in it's move srategca from the military view point The soldiers sacrificed because the German high command dare not must the people news of their vast defeat

hit by the spral are killed.
 By using an extension rod bent at an angle of about 45 degrees it is much easier to reach the under sides of the leaves. It is probably mors important to kill those aphids on the tender growing shoots and new leaves than those on the older and lower leaves. Hence, if any must be skipped, let it be the latter.
 The comparative cost of the ma- terlals per barrel of spray mixture is approximately as follows: Kerosene Emulsion
 Soap, three cakes, IS cents.
 Kerosene, four gallons, 56 cents Total cost, A cents. Nicotine Solution
 Soap, three cakes, IS cents.
 Nicotine sulphate, pint, S1.31. Total cost, $1.49.
 Of course, it is somewhat more work to make the kerosene emulsion, but it will surely prove a saving in large area fields, especially if the owners do not have a supply of nico- tine solution on hand. In the small garden it will not make so much diff ference.
 Kerosene and soap can usually be obtained immediately from any groc- CT, if the owner does not already have them on his premises. If he waits to transport nicotine solution or some other material, it may be too late to save the crop before he can get and apply it.
