German "Kultur" in Belgium
True Story of Atrocities Committed
by the Prussian Hordes.

One of the most sensational disclos-
ures of the wharf.-the true story -of the
pillaging and ravaging of Belgium and
northern France by the Kaiser.s SOL
diers. will soon be published in The
Messenger. The story is told in "The
Confessions of a German Deserter"
which is one of the most remarkable
narratives produced by the war. The
author of these conf essions was sick
ened by the atrocities that he saw and
was forced to perpetrate, under orders
of higher officers, and he deserted. He
succeeded in making his way to the
United States. He has written the
true story of the events that marked
the sweep of Won Kluck's army across
Belgium in the beginning of the war.

I'm THE MORNING SOW THY
SEED"

If all members of Congress were to
follow the course Of Representative
William B. Mckinley of Illinois in
the distribution of their quotas Of free
Government seeds they would realize
that no more worthy appropriation
can be made than that for the pur-
chase of seeds to be sent to the people
at home. Mr.. Mckinley has mailing
list of all the children in his district
between the ages Of 8 and IL. He
sends a package of seeds to each
child, together with specially pre-
pared pamphlet from the Agricultural
Department, containing simple direc-
tions for making successful garden.
The result is that there are more than
10000 gardens in Mr.. McKinley's dis
trict each season, cultivated by the
children, that probably would not be
planted at all if it were not for the
Congressman's efforts in enlisting
their interest.

FORDNEY AT THE BLACKBOARD

No more convincing proof of the
soundness of the Republican doctrine
of Protection can be found than in the
growth of the dyestuffs industry in
this country since the war furnished
an efficient barrier against the impor-
tation of such products from Germany.
According to Congressman Joseph w.
Fordney of Michigan, the leading Re-
publican on the Ways and Means
Committee, we are now manufacturing
about $50 of the 900 varieties of dyes
made in the world. Practically all of
that business has been established
since 1914. Even the most radical
free-trade Democrats of Congress are
beginning to see, in contemplating
the dyestuffs situation, what Protec-
tion can accomplish in the building
up and maintenance of our industries.

REPINE KNOT

Friends of the forests in New Eng
land and the States bordering on the
Great Lakes will be glad to know
that the war on the white pine blister
rust is to be continued despite the tre-
mendous additional expenditures the
country is now being called upon to
bear. The sum of $3.50, ,448 is appro-
priated in the Agricultural Appropria-
ton Bill, which is being framed in
Congress-, no part Of which, however,
will be expended until an equal amount
shall have been contributed by each
State in which the work is to be done.
1t is recognized that there is no
economy in denying funds for work of
that sort, and the representatives
from the Northern States have sue
ceeded in impressing upon their col
leagues the necessity of continuing
the fight against the pine disease
which annually destroys so many of
our most valuable trees.

Washington Letter.
A TICKLISH SUBJECT

Washington, Feb. 12.-(Special
correspondence)-The lack of consis-
tency of Southern Members of Con-
gress in voting large appropriations
for their section of the country and at
the same time denying comparatively
small sums for the North is illustrated
in the action of the House on items in
the Agricultural Appropriation Bill.
$250,000 was allotted for continuing
the work of suppression of tuberculo-
sis in cattle. A Republican amend
ment to raise it to $500,000 was de-
feated, chiefly by the votes of Mem
bers from the South. Then $500, ,420
was appropriated for the eradication
of the Southern cattle tick, and an
amendment to reduce it to $250,000
was defeated. The former item affects
principally the States of the North,
and to a greater or less degree all the
48 states of the Union. The latter
item will be spent only in IL or IL
Southern States where the cattle tick
is found.
