URUGUAY WILL NEVER SEE
ANOTHER REVOLUTION is
BELIEF IN SOME QUARTERS

MOntevicleo, Uruguay, Dee 3O.-(Corre'
spondence of the Association Press)-
Thousands Of revolutionsts, members
of the Blanco party who have been liv-
ing in exile in Brazil since their unsuc-
cessful revolution of 1912, are expected
to return from hiding as a result Of
the approval Of the new federal con
sttution by referendum vote Of the ma.
ton taken November 25.
one of their leaders recently stated
that there We're 1900 Uruguayan revo.
utionists living along the Brazilian side
of the frontier where they had been
ready to take up arms and invade
Uruguay at short notice. Their lead
ers say the cXiled rebels porbably VIII
return to their homes in the belief that
the secret ballot provided for in the
new constitution will give them repre-
sentauon in the government which they
have coveted for many years and to at
tain which they have undertaken pre-
yious revolutions.
The caches in which they have buried
their arms stretch along the frontier
from Uruguayana to Rio Grande de SUI,
where they were ready for almost IN
stant service. but it is believed the guns
will not be used in revolution, as the
revolutionary leaders assert that the
days of revolutions have passed for
ever in Uruguay with the adoption of
the constitution.
For half century the Blancos have
had no part in the government of the
republic because Of the strict control
which the Colorados have maintained
over the elections. The secret ballot
provided for in the new constitution Is
considered to be a concession to the
Blancos. whose leaders promised to sup
port the other provisions if the secret
ballot was granted.
one important clause Of the new con
stitution provides for the separation oF
church and state According to some
political leaders the winning of the Sc
cret ballot will bring about the diss~u-
ton Of the BlancO party

POTATOES INSTEAD OF WHEAT

Increase in the consumption Of pota-
toes by so per cent has been proposed
as a war measure. This country has
a large surplus of potatoes which
must be used before June l to pre-
vent wastage. The wheat supply is
constantly growing smaller. BY US
ing larger amounts of. potatoes the
American people can not only prevent
waste of this valuable food, but they
can also save the wheat which is nee
essary to send to Europe.
The present price Of potatoes is
about one-half the price of a year ago,
while other food commodities have in
creased an average of 80 per cent dur
ing the year. According to Miss Es-
sic M. Heyle of the University of Mis-
souri, College of Agriculture, bushel
of potatoes will furnish the same en-
ergy value or working power to the
body as 16 pound loaves of bread.
Aside from this saving of food, the
American people can also save money
by greater use of potatoes. BY US
ing a bushel of potatoes in the place
of 16 loaves of bread 40 cents can be
saved. An extra potato eaten each
day will save two slices of bread.

NEED FOR TRAINED
MEN is ACUTE

The demand for men trained in ag
riculture has always been greater
than the supply. Consequently, agri-
cultural positions have usually paid
other liyelihoods. Since the war be-
gan, the demand for mon trained in
the different branches of agriculture
has become even more acute. Under
normal conditions the, demand for
such men would have increased grad
ually, but the war has given a sud-
den impetus to this demand. The
need for trained men will be greater
than ever after the war is over. There
fore, the man who prepares himself
now will be in a position to take adj
vantage Of positions which will be
open then.
An examination of recent requests,
received by the University of Missou-
ri College of Agriculture, for men to
fill agricultural positions will indicate
the possibilities before men who are
qualified to accept them. The head of
one department reports that the range
of salaries runs from $40 a month to
$4,000 a year, but that very few men
can be found to take the positions.
The head of another department re-
ports that assistant county agents at
salaries ranging from SIS to 500
month, and county agents at salaries
from $3.50 to 5000 per month are in
demand. Men with greater experience
and ability can be placed at higher sal
aries. The war has given a great i'm
petus to the county agent movement,
and there will be continuous demand
for men who are qualified to do this,
work.
Applications have been received for
about twenty-five men who can do
testing work for COW testing asso-
Citations at salaries from $50 to $85
a month, with board and lodging.
Creamery managers are wanted at sal
aries of from SIS to 500 per month.
Managers of city milk plants are
wanted at salaries of 500 to 5000 a
month. Dairy supply companies and
milking machine companies are seek
ing travelling representatives. Con-
densed milk factories are offering $3.50
a month for dairy experts. Colleges,
experiment stations and the United
States Department of Agriculture
are seeking for graduates with one or
two years practical experience, or one
year of graduate work, at salaries
from $1,000 to $500. In addition to
these positions number of oppor-
tunities are open to men who care. to
operate dairy farms on a partnership
basis. The positions paying smaller
salaries give excellent opportunity to
obtain experience. The higher salaried
positions usually require experience.
Equally attractive positions are of
fered to persons trained in entomol-
ogy, farm management, horticulture,
animal husbandry, forestry, veterin-
airy science, agricultural chemistry,
soils, home economies and farm crops.
The demand for teachers of agiicul-
ture in normals and high schools is
also increasing.
