Hints have come from Germany within
the last few days that the military caste
there would not be aveIse to bringing
about a military situation within the
former empire that would embarrass the
allies in putting the peace treaty into
effect and it seems not improbable that
the move made by the eX-crown prince
is connected with some such plan. The
former crown prince made his way into
Holland shortly after the signing of the
armistice last November and was IN
termed there by the Dutch government.

WHO ARE THE MIDDLE CLASS
Brain Workers Who Are Compelled to
Do Manual Labor to Exc Out
an Existence.

Few forces tend so strongly to pro-
duce social consciousness as a griev-
ance Not so many years ago one
might have searched the world and
found nobody who would admit he
was of the middle class, remarks the
New York Times. The term was an
ep1thet used in derision. AS the mid
ole class was vaguely supposed to be
respectable, respectability itself went
out OF fashion. Today all this is al
tered. People write to the papers to
say they are Of the middle class and
they say is with an air of one who
after all is somebody. Yet nobody has
defined the middle class, even the
soclologists and economists, whose
business such things are.
In England w. II. Mallock gave a
few stray thoughts to the subject and
concluded it is middle class to have an
income of some $730. Prof. H. R.
Seager stated in America the figure
would have to be raised to 81, 1,150. 1t
is the way of the elder sociologists to
write as if the determining factor is
always money.
Our common sense knows better
The middle class is distinguished from
the class on it's one hand by the fact
that it works, not with ones body, but
with it's mind. 1t is distinguished from
the class on it's other hand by the fact
that, not having sufficient capital to re-
tire upon, it has to work. The middle
class man is brain worker. who is
obliged to work or go under. And he is
obliged to conform to current stand
ards Of respectability, physically as
well as mentally and morally.
In the nineteenth century the in
come standards had at least a shadow
of justification, for wages and salaries
still maintained some definite relation
ship to the character of work done
and service rendered. Today we have
changed all that and with one notable
result. A large group of people among
US have become class conscious-those,
namely, who do professional work for
less than the pay of hand laborer.
Mentally and morally they have two
strong props of characteristic fact
that the instrum ent of their labor is
the mind and the fact that they are
urged on by necessity to use it.

The Most Ancient Eou.

Just before the war began, during
excavations in the ancient Mogunti-
acum, under the auspices Of the Archie
illogical society of Mayence, there
was found a hens egg which was es-
timated to have been buried in the
earth for something like 10 centuries.
Moguntiacum was built by Drusus,
the son of the Roman emperor Angus
tus, in the year IA B. @. Upon the
site of the ancient Roman castrum or
encampment near the city the excava-
tons in question brought to light many
interesting relics, including some wa.
ter cisterns of Roman make. 1t was
in one of these, which was located
some 20 feet below the surface, that
a damaged Roman claypot was discov-
cred containing the shell of broken
egg and also a whole egg that had
been kept from being smashed by
shred Of the damaged pot, which COW

tied in the municipal museum.

SURGEON GENERAL BLUE ON THE FLU"

''Flu" cost 100000 lives in the
United States. Will it come back this
year? This question, being asked by
thousands of scientists and millions of
laymen throughout the world, Is dis
cussed by Surgeon General Blue of the
Public Health Service in an official
bulletin, in which it is said that the
plague probably will reappear, but not
in as severe a form as last winter.
Probably, but by no means GER
tainly there will be a recurrence of
the influenza epidemic this year," says
General Blue. "Indications are that
should it occur it will not be as severe
as the pandemic of the previous year.
City officials, state and city boards of
health, should be prepared in the event
Of a recurrence. The fact that a pre-
vious attack brings immunity in GER

In attacking the cost of living prob
lem through local public markets, COM
munities might we'll give heed to def
mite underlying principles that are
known to apply to such marketing in
stitutiOnS. Unless one is familiar with
the flow of farm produce from the
country into the market basket the
distinction between farmers retail
market and farmers wholesale mar
ket'' is not drawn, but both may be
called a farmers market and pic
tured as one and the same in their
operation and function.
Some communities have tried to
change farmers wholesale markets
into retail markets, where the house
wife could fill her market basket with
purchases made direct from farmers
always at a saving. These attempts
have usually resulted in failure and
deal of friction between the public the
farmers and officials because, accord
ing to city marketing men of the
department of agriculture. the farmers
wholesale market is a very different
institution from a farmers retail mar
ket
Wholesale Market.
A farmers wholesale market draws
to it producers who specialize in truck
crops and fruits, and who count on
hauling corn, potatoes, tomatoes, ap-
pies, strawberries or other crops in
large quantities. They desire quick
sales in large lots after they reach
the market so they can return to their
farms and the work of production.
Time to such growers is more valuable
than the difference between what they
get in wholesale quantities for their
products and what they might realize
by lingering long enough to retail
their load in small lots at higher than
wholesale prices.
Retail farmers markets, on the other
hand, attract group of producers who
raise small amount of fruit or vege-
tables as a side line, and whose other
crops do not demand as close atten-
tiOn as those of the truck raiser. Often
a farmer who raises only few vege-
tables can send them to a retail farm
ers' market in mixed lots, by Il member
of his family, who is able to remain
away from the farm long enough to
dispose of these products to house
wives carrying market baskets.
The retail farmers market depends
as much for it's success upon location
as on any other factor. 1t must be con-
Venient for the housewife. while a

FARMER WASTES MUCH MONEY
One of Chief Ways Is Failure to Keep
Farm Equipment in Proper
Storage Place.

No one likes to make money any
more than the farmer, yet he is the
person who is most prone to waste it.
One of the chief ways in which he
wastes money is by his failure to keep
in proper condition his farming equip
ment. Many kinds of machinery which
are used in one season and not in the
others should be stored away when
not in use.

Some beekeepers find it necessary to

For this purpose fumes of sulphur or

disulphid of carbon is used, great care
should be taken not to bring it near

GOOD CARE FOR IMPLEMENTS
Deterioration Is Fast Under Influence
of Weathering Agents, Such
as Sun and Rain.

Agricultural implements deteriorate
very fast under the influence of the
weathering agents, such as rain, dew
and sun. AS soon as the work is fin
ished the implements should be pol
ished, if they have been exposed, and
put under shelter. These farm helps
are too valuable to leave in the wealth
