A man who gets up weather predic-
tons a year ahead for almanacs tells
US how he does it He peels an onion
and preserves the first twelve peel
ings intact. The Feelings are then laid
in a row, the top peeling representing
January and each OF the eleven other
Feelings representing February, March
April, May, June and so on. He
places a pinch of salt on each peeling
and lets the Feelings stand over night.
In the morning he finds that some of
the peelings have absorbed the salt.
while other peelings will not dissolve
the salt at all. Where the salt has
dissolved 1t indicates that that will be
a wet month, and where the salt has
not been dissolved the month will be
dry.

Germany wants to take over Russia and make ready for another war, and the munition makers and gun manufacturers know that if the league of nations Is defeated that all the nations of t~ac earth will arm themselves to the teeth and that they will sell them billions and billions worth of ammunitions.
 Article 10 of the league has been mentioned and cry is raised against sending of our men to other countries. If we would set up machine and call it a league of nations and leave it to operate without force or power we would be foolish indeed. But instead we have put teeth into 1t. It is a real power. In order to send troops to foreign power it will be necessary that the vote of the nations be unanimous, The one opposing vote of the United States would prevent our having to send troops out against our own will.
 The fact that America can with draw from the league in two years time. if she desires to do so, answers all argument of the opposition. Now the bleeding. war-ridden countries of the world want to unite to prevent
