"WOEFULLY DEFICIENT"

To have been adequately protected
In the air there should have been 3,40O
planes in France at the time of the
signing Of the armistice, was the state
ment by Col. Mason M. Patrick, u. S.
A., former Major General, before the
House subcommittee investigating
aviation. Col. Patrick's figures show
ed that with 1,250,000 men at the
front, the United States only had TAO
planes in operation. France, with l.
100000 men actually on the front had
1881 planes of all kinds in operation
and England, with 100000 men at the
front, had 1883 planes. The Ameri-
can Air service which had cost the
Taxpayers practically 5000, 000, 900, at
the signing of the armistice was sum-
med up by Col. Patrick as, "woefully
deficient in men and planes" Col. Pat
rick, with the rank of Major General,
was chief of the American Air Ser
vice in France from May 1918 until
after the armistice was signed, and is
the highest authority on air service in

THE NEXT GOVERNOR OF MICH
IGAN

The names of citizens who are to
come before the people for that Sc
lection to the high and responsible
position of Governor of Michigan are.
already being announced through the
press and it behooves every person,
possessing the franchise, to become
acquainted with the qualifications OF
aspirants for this position.
Michigan, being Republican state,
the next Governor will doubtless be
selected from that political party.
Several of our very prominent and
worthy citizens have already "cast
their hat into the ring" and there are
others, doubtless, who may be con-
templating like venture.
Sea In view of the fact that all wealth
comes, primarily, from the soil and
Michigan agriculture is, therefore, the
foundation upon which rests the pros
perity of her citizens; would it not
be most wise and becoming to place
4 in the Governors chair a practical
farmer of which our state has an
abundant supply of swell-qualified
men. -
The various Farmers Organiza-
lions with the state-the Grange, the
Farmers Clubs, and the Cleaners
/ If united on one candidate, may be
able to name the successful candidate
for governor and this matter is now
! being considered by the above orgapi-
! cations.
/; The very worthy records made by
farmers who in previous years have
! served Michigan as chief executive
give assurance that from "The Till
ers of the Soil'' candidate may be
| selected, who, will, by: faithful dis:
charge of official duties, prove the
wisdom of the peoples choice in this
matter.
1t is to be hoped that this question
will be thoroughly capvassed to the
end S. that wise and satisfactory
choice may9result. 49, =

SPLINELESS DIPLOMACY

Early in the peace negotiations at
Paris we were told that the British
were insistent that they should retain
supremacy of the seas, regardless OF
what the league of nations might say.
From the moment of that firm stand
by Great Britain the subject Of free
dom of the seas was never taken up by
the conference, so far as Secretary
Lansing is aware. Why should we not
have had an American at Paris with
sufficient courage to insist that our
Monroe Doctrine, questions of immi-
grafton, tariff, and coastwise trade,
and the right inherent in our Congress
to make war only when it chose TO do
50, should be excepted from any inter-
ference by the league of nations?

WHEAT TESTED FOR
SMUT AT M. A. c.

East Lansing, Aug. 26.-The great
prevalence of Sinking Smut of wheat
in Michigan this last year, and the
Importance of planting clean seed,
has led the botany department of the
Michigan Agricultural College to es-
tablish free wheat testing service
for the farmers of the state. Sam
Piles, which need be no larger than a
pint or half pint, will be examined by
the centrifuge method, and a report
on the smut spores found will be made
the owner of the sample. Informa-
ton as to the proper smut treatment
for the particular batch of grain, and
whether or not it is too smutty to be
planted at all, will be given at the
same time. Samples should be ad-
dressed to the Botany Department,
East Lansing, and have the sender's
name attached.
DR.. G. H. Coons, plant pathologist
at the college, gives the following
on treatment for Sinking Smut:
"There are three common ways for
applying formaldehyde for the con-
troll of Sinking Smut of wheat. In
all these methods there is danger OF
injury to the termination of the
wheat unless directions are followed
closely, because formaldehyde airs
slowly. Wheat so treated must not
be covered too long and must be
planted at once.
"After securing clean grain of good
variety, the farmer should fan the
grain thoroughly to remove light,
shrivelled grains and smut balls.
The grain should then be treated by
one of the following methods:
1. "Wet Method" Dilute Formal
dehyde): Sprinkle the grain until
thoroughly wet with solution of pint
of Formaldehyde to 40 gallons of wat
err. Cover with blankets or sacks for
2 hours. Spread out thinly to dry
and sow within IL hours. Formalde-
hyde treatments are necessary for
crop protection but they must be
given carefully and with scrupulous
attention to directions. Allow for. the
swollen condition of the grain.
2. "Dry Method" Concentrated
Formaldehyde): The convenience o;
this method is its chief advantage
Only those who will follow directions
carefully should employ it since con-
siderable loss resulted during the
past season through improper hand
ling.
Apply formaldehyde, full strength
with hand sprayer while the grain is
being shoveled over and over. Use a,
the rate of 1 pint to so bushels, 1-2
pint to % bushels, 1-5 pint to 10 bush
els, etc. A dose is dose-this is as
strong as formaldehyde can safely be
used on wheat.
Cover the grain 4 hours-absolute-
ly no longer. Then spread to air in
warm, dry place for an hour or two.
It is unsafe to leave grain covered
or sacked over night. Formaldehyde
l. csnnQt be. thoroughly aired out of
lgrainrs Therefore tplant schtt once.
I-Tyeat no more rtagrain thahsscau xbe
sown the same day. IA ~. w
3. "Soak and Skim Method" Ex-
cessively smutty wheat is probably
unsafe to plant. Sinking smut can be
practically eliminated, however, by
the "Soak and Skim" method: Stir
the grain slowly into solution of pint
of formaldehyde to forty gallons of
water. Then skim off the smut balls
and light grain. The grain should
be taken out at once, dried, and
planted Immediately.

EXECUTIVE PRECAUTION

President Wilson has cabled to Pre-
mier Clemenceau asking him not to
make public the minutes of the league

action is to forestall any attempt by
the Foreign Relations Committee to
obtain from French sources what they
are denied by our President.

Lewis Defends Wilson
Ex-senator Hints President Ma,
Seek Third Term

CHICAGO, May 21.-Former Senator
James Hamilton Lewis, of Chicago, in
a speech before the Iroquos Club here
to-day said:
NO man at tho head of any govern
ment has faced so organized a conspir-
acy to prevent the truth of his work for
the people being known to them as
Woodrow Wilson,
"President Wilson will not allow this
conspiracy to succeed. He trusts the
sense Of the American people and will
go to them direct with full revelation
of the truth and submit himself to
their Justice If there will arise a rea
son for President Wilson asking a third
term of the Presidency from the people,
that will be found in the demand the
country will make on Wilson to re-
main IN power to execute by his voice
and hand the new work his mind has
devised for men and his heart con-
celved for the welfare of America"

Asserts Anderson
Dry Cause aided by At-
tempt to S,Uay President
and the Supreme Court

William H. Anderson, state superin-
tendent Of the AntiSaloon League, de-
c!ared yesterday that both President
Wilson and the prohibition forces
had blundered. The Presidents sug-
gestion that Congress retain light wines
and beers is greater mistake, he said
country elect a Democratic Congress.
The "wets," he added, have damaged
dent through a letter sent out by the
Association Opposed to National Pro-
hbition, which declares that he will
forestall the law by declaring demob-
ilization accomplished.
After contending that the brewers
had violated confidence in giving out
the assurance which Mr. Gompers
brought back from the President, and
that the hotel interests Spilled" the
fact that Secretary Tumulty had given
them assurance of his assistance, Mr.
Anderson says:
"Final pinnacle of asininty, the As
sociation Opposed to National Prohibi-
tion, the supposedly intelligent mouth
piece of the vets completes the Presi-
dents discomforture by blandly put
ting out an official statement as fol-
lows: Our advices from Paris two
weeks ago were that the President had
in mind to make this recommendation
TO the Congress when it was called in
extra session. thus herading to the
world that the brewers and liquor in
terests had inside lines and direct con-
nection with the Chief Executive Of the
nation and were receiving from him
confidential advance information as to
the blow that he was proposing to
strike the prohibition cause"
"This demonstration of the inability
Of the befuddled and demoralized
vets to keep from mussng up men
IN public life who try to help them
out has, to say the least, not improved

trlne and declaration of the judc-
ment of Congress upon entangling alli-
ances was made in a resolution pre-.
sented in the House by Representative
Hustled, Of New York, this afternoon
and referred to the Foreign Affairs
Committee.
ut is hereby declared to be the de-
llberate judgment of Congress- the
resolution read, that the United States
OF America should not enter into any
agreement which might require it to
use force in the settlement of any dis
pute which may hereafter arise be-
tween nations of Europe, or which
might authorize or permit any nation
OF Europe to use force in the settle
ment of any dispute which may here
after arise between the nations of
America"

this direction would meet with delays
that would hold ii up until after July
] and thus save members from going
on record on the prohibition issue
In view of the Presidents utterancc
many Democratic members who have
consistently stood by the Administra-
ton declined to state their views One
Senator, who always voted dry, gave
this instruction: Just say that was

The question does not present an
open and shut, wet" or dry issue
II it did the roll calls on the prohibi
ton amendment would give fairly
accurate gauge of the sentiment of the
two Houses. The question of repeal is
complicated by a widespread belief
among Republicans that the Presi-
dents move is political in character;
by the knowledge among the "wets"
that nine-tenths of the breweries in
many states already have shut down
and would not be reopened for six
months of business; by doubts as to
the constitutionality of enforcing war
time prohibition after the war is over

more minority member. They con-
tended that inasmuch as the Republi-
cans had majority of only two in the
Senate itself they should not have a
larger majority on Senate committees
1t was suggested that the Repubii-
cans might be permitted to organize
the Foreign Relations, Finance and
Elections committees with majorites
of three if they would agree to ma
iorties of two on other committees.
This would leave the Republicans with
only two votes to spare on the I'M
portant Appropriations Committee,
with twenty members, and the Com
merce Committee with nineteen men,

The Republicans did not close the
door to an agreement and the Demo
cratic leaders were to confer again
with their steering committee for new
instructions.

day between Senator Lodge and Sen
ator Borah and Chairman VIII Hays
and various of the Progressives in an
