MUST REVISE IDEAS.
Returned Service Men Say That Many
Charges Are Untrue.

That the American people will have
10 revise their ideas as to many OF
the atrocities charged 20 the Germans
during the nghting in France Is the
statement made by some OF the most
prominent service men who served in
the A. f. r.
That there were atrocities perpe-
,rated there seems TO be no question,
hut that they were so general as the
propaganda handed out by the Creel
Bureau woul have people believe Is
seriously questioned. A very promi-
nent peninsula gentleman who land
ed in Cloyerland only a few days ago
from France made the statement that
when things are sifted and the spot
light OF truth is turned upon some OF
the alleged arocities 1t will be found
that they were greatly magnifed
or course. this doesn't by any means
excuse the Germans from responsible
ity for the war nor the fact that they
allowed their Prussian militarists and
iunkers 10 ride rough shod over the
people they held in bondage. IL Will
however, show that some OK the
crimes charged. especially the bomb
ing OF hospitals, were brought on By
cunning on the part OF our allies in
an effort 10 hide concentrations and
supplies.
Another thing that the American
people are learning much about Is the
efficiency OF our army and the way
that II was bound down and hampered
by the seniority rule OF the regular
army. While the antiquated West
Pointers were not In command in the
field, they exerted. through the SEN
iority rule and the class distinction
so long countenanced in the regular
army such an influence that the inn
paired progress very materially in
many ways.
The coming Investigations will re-
veal a whole lot of useful information
for the benefit OF our army organiza-
ton IL the barrier OF custom can be
overcome and the army reorganized
upon the democratic principle OF In
diyiual efficiency.

Needs Mar IOwa's Beauty.

Rural Iowa is beautiful in these
days, but throughout the state one feat
ure mars its beauty-the extensive
growth of weeds. They are everywhere
at this time, more than fence-high along
the roadways. and covering every
available piece of ground that is not
under the pillow. In every part OF the
state pastures may be found with more
weeds than grass, land worth some hun
dreds Of dollars an acre being allowed
to produce more rag weed than blue
grass or clover and making an obser-
yer wonder how that land can possibly
pay return on its present day market
value.
DIR. l.. II. Pammel. agricultural en-
pertinent station botanist, estimated
several years ago that weeds in Iowa
caused an annual loss of 25,O0O.O0O at
least. As lands have gone up and farm
products prices have risen, that loss
has probably risen to 40.000,0O0. More
over, weeds are giving Iowa shiftless

they must have full cooperation from

Pig Crop Smaller in Iowa.

IOwas pig crop is smaller than it
should be this year, in spite of the fact
that throughout the state farmers
made effort to produce b big crop. Dis
ease is responsible for this loss, not hog
cholera. but scours and pneumonia. DR..
X. W. StOuder. extension veterinarian
at Iowa State college, says that pigs
have died in such large numbers
through the corn belt that many breed
ers are more discouraged this season
than in many previous seasons.
I'm times past we have usually at
tributed heavy hog losses to cholera.
says DR.. Stouder. THAT explanation,
based on years of experience and OBJ
scryation. was in most instances cor
rect. But thanks to an almost univer-
sal belief in the virtue and power of
anti-hog cholera serum and virus, chOl-
era is not now common. There is very
little of it in Iowa so far as careful
inquiry and wide travel among the
farms can reveal"
This year the losses are said to be
due to the unfavorable climatic cOndi-
tons at narrowing time this spring.
There was lack of sunshine, good
deal of rain and much chilly weather.
Pigs do not thrive on that and scOurs
and II form of pneumonia developed.
This caused much sickness and loss.

Hogs Sell for s1s,149.67.

f. $. Howard. a farmer and live
stock raiser near Sydney, in a recent
shipment of stock to the st. Joseph
market, broke several records and es
tablished some interesting facts.
Not only was his the largest ship
ment of hogs ever sent out of his home
station by one person of his own feed
ing, but the price at which they sold
sets record.
There were five carloads, or 22o head
averaging nearly $50 pounds each, and
Mr.. Howard received a check for SIS
1887, selling the hogs at S23.1O per
hundred pounds.
Not hog was lost, although the
weather was extremely hot. He had
fed the hogs about four months and es'
Inmates that he has paid So bushel for
his corn. Mr.. Howard has 24O acres OF
land and the check for these hogs is
greater than the price of the land al
the time it was purchased.
