4 TREMENDOUS SUCCESS
VIM. GOODYEAR

Measured by the standard of at
tendance, of excellence of program
OF enthusiasm aroused or of far
reaching results accomplished the
big mass meeting of farmers. held at
Spokane last week. was tremendous
success.
The large attendance was crafty
ing. At nearly every session from
1000 to 5000 persons were in the
armory and probably 5000 individual
farmers heard one or more of the
speakers. Most of them were rep
resentative farmers men of jnflu-
ence in their communities. They
came from all parts of the North
west and. belonged to many different
farm organizations.
The program was well balanced
and while the speakers differed
greatly in style and personality. all
OF them drove home the necessity of
federating all the farm organizations
and the Importance of maintaining
suitable headquarters at the national
capital. National President Barrett
entertained the audience by describ-
ing his trip to the peace conference,
kept everybody in good humor by his
wit, and told the farmers some plain
truths about themselves. Milo d.
Campbell aroused the enthusiasm OF
his auditors by his fiery oratory.
Senator Gore demonstrated clearly
that the farmers must organize and
be vigilant in protecting their inter-
ests during the reconstruction per
iod and showed how lack of organ

stated some plain truths and offered
helpful suggestions, which will
stimulate lot of hard thinking and
earnest discussion in the farm
homes for months to come.
That the addresses aroused the in
terest and enthusiasm of all present
was demonstrated by the close at.
tention paid. the frequent outbursts
Of spontaneous applause, and the una.
nimity OF action on the resolutions
introduced.
That the meeting will accomplish

A FIST-RIGHT PEACE

The Germans protest that the
peace is too drastic to be lasting"
The allies are convinced that no
peace will be lasting which the Ger
mans are capable of breaking: So
they have not tried to make a peace
which the Germans will desire to
keep. They have preferred a peace
which the Germans will have to
keep. Invisible force on the one
side; complete helplessness on the
other-this is the basis of peace, so
/ far as Germany is concerned.
And whether this is "a bad lesson
OF a good at least it has had able
teachers. Not only has Germany en-
forced it in four war treaties. and
prepared to enforce it in a fifth, but
for 80 years, in peace as we'll as in
war, it has been preached in Ger
many, Define Germany" ran the
school catechism. And the answer
was. The Fatherland surrounded
by enemies " lon what must Ger
many rely?' "On its own fist. Early
in the war a meeting in America was
! addressed, in German. by two official
man consul just escaped incognito
i from Germany, and a German eX-
change professor, stranded in this
country. And this is the doctrine
/ they proudly preached, to tumultous
applause: Germany has no friends:
Germany never has had and never
VII have friends. and desires none
Germany trusts not to the false faith
OF pretended friends, but to her own
fist. With her own might, Germany
will protect her peace at home and
impose her peace abroad. Between
nations there is no friendship, no
,aith no rght--Only strength.
@crld-right is fist-right"
Perhaps Germany did not mean
this. Certainly there were Germans
who did not. But Germany preached
i so well, and her official acts car
ried it out so we'll, that the world has
taken Germany at her word, and has
imposed on her the only sort of
peace which German doctrine held
enduring 1t may be bad doctrine,
and the futurp NAV damn tho a
lies for carrying it out. If this peace
of force shall finally be more bur
densome to those who impose it than
TO those who are subject to it. the
spirit which made it inevitable will
be only one more of the horrors
which German miltarism turned
loose on the world, Fresno Repub-
lican.

The first place in hog raising in the

growing sections, where corn is the
first grain thought of when the fat
tening of hogs is considered 1t is,
however, fallacious to argue that hog
raising will not give profitable returns
outside of the corn belt. The corn
belt has great advantages for econom-
ical pork production. but it also has
its disadvantages. The cheapneSS and
abundance of corn in this section have
often led farmers to use il as the eX-
elusive grain feed. Breeding stock so

Source of Supply.

The few states comprising the corn
belt are the source of supply for a
great amount of swine products, eSpe-
cially hams and bacon, that are con-
sumed in other portions of the coun-
try. Yet the advantages of these corn
belt states are little. If at ALL superior
to those of many others outside of
that district. The South has an abund-
ance of vegetation. Cowpeas, soy
beans, velvet beans, and PEANUTS are
leguminOus crops peculiar to that
section which have great value in pig
raising. Corn grows readily in all
parts of the South, and in the sub
tropical sections the experience of
feeders with cassava seems to ndi-
cate that it has considerable value for
pork production. In addition there is
generally an abundant water supply /;
the climate is mild and there is a
long period during which green feed
is available; thus the expense of shell
ter and winter feeding is greatly les

Hog Raising in East.

The East is peculiarly adapted to
hog raising in view of the fact that
markets for fresh pork and cured
products may be found In local com
munitieS as well as in the larger
cities and the various coast resorts.
As regards feeds, corn is being grown
successfully in the East, and in some
sections the average yield per acre is
greater than that of the middle West.
Glover, blue grass, and many other
forage crops especially adapted for
swine production grow rapidly in near
ly every section of the East In the
trucking sections there is wasted an
nually a vast quantity of unmarked
2ble products that might be used with
profit in feeding hogs.
In the extreme West the alfalfa of
the irrigated valleys and the clover of
the coast districts offer a splendid
foundation for successful, pork pro-
duction. In most of these regions
there is an abundance of small grain,
particularly barley. that may often be
fed economically while In some local
tiles corn IS successful crop.

it has been necessary to brace the

the spongy ground that makes up al
most the entire arsenal reserve

System Explained.

The perfected system has been In
use In the American navy for a year.
At Al Whitehall street the system was
explained briefly by attaches Of the
New York district central controlling
radio station.
1t is to be assumed that a ship Is
a hundred miles off the middle Allan
tic coast. She has lost her bearings.
Her navigators are unable to tell her
latitude and longitude. At once the
bewildered ships radio flashes the
American coast a demand to be told
the data she needs most:
"Where am ~
The request coming within the sec
tor for which the New York district
central controlling radio station is re-
sponsible, the appeal Is received by
five radio compass stations located at
Montauk Point, L. l.; Fire Island,
Rockaway Beach, Sandy Hook and
Mantoloking, N. j.
Each of these stations is connected
with A Whitehall street by telegraph
and telephone. These radio compass
stations cannot communicate with the
lost ship, as they are receivers only
and not transmitters. However, each
of the radio compass stations notifies
the central station In Whiteall street
that q ship within the district is de-
manding to know Its location. Imme-
diately the central station radios the
b%ewildered mariner to continue fash
ing his call letters for at least thirty
seconds. And at<the same time the
radio compass stations begin obtain
ing bearings OF the ship.
Then It's Simple.
The operators in the five stations
turn their compass wheels until each
has an accurate bearing. These five
readings are transmitted to the CEN
trail station where, on a huge chart,
the five readings are combined. Each
reading will indicate a certain num-
Der of miles between the ship and the
station that took the bearing. 1t Is a
relatively simple matter. then, to
project these lines upon the chart
