STRAW VALUABLE FARM BY
PRODUCT.

Because livestock raising is increas-
ing and the demand for forage and
roughage is rapidly growing, straw
from the grain crops has become an
important by-product. Every stock
raiser recognizes its value for feed or
litter. On many stock farms not near
ly enough straw is raised for the needs
of the stock. And yet much Of it is
wasted. A great deal is still burned at
threshing time or soon after. More Of
it is blown into poorly made piles and
stands unused for few years, occupy
ing land that should grow crops. And
more is wasted in these poorly made
piles by stock tramping over it and
pulling it down.
When straw is scarce and needed for
litter or feed it should be as carefully
stacked as is hay. This is sometimes
difficult where the blow stacker is u.s.
ed. Much can be done toward saving
the straw by trimming up the pile af-
ter threshing. If the straw is dug
away from the bottom so as to form
straight wall five or six feet high all
the way around stockcan not well tear
it down.
The straw so dug away should either
be hauled to the barns for use or spread
on the land thinly for blowing under.
The top should also be trimmed up and
put in shape to shed rain as much as
possible. This will result in dry straw
for feed or bedding when wanted and
will add much to the dryness Of the
barn, when used and to the comfort and
health of the livestock. Frozen chunks
of straw make poor bedding and in
thawing result in damp barn.-An-
drew Boss, vice director Of the Mime
sofa Experiment Station.

WILSON DENIES THE
U. S. WORKSHOPS DOLLAR
Tells French the Americans Have
High Sense of Justice-Hun
Idea Is Wrong.

Paris, May 13.-President Wilson,
in his address to the French Academy
of Moral and Political Sciences, Wig
orously denied that the American
people were largely materialists or
dollar worshipers.
II have had in recent months one
very deep sense of privilege" the
president said. II have been keenly
aware that there have been times when
the peoples of Europe have not under
stood the people of the United States.
We have been too often supposed to
have been devoted chiefly if not en-
tirely to material enterprises. We have
been supposed in the common phrase,
TO worship the almighty dollar.
I'VE have accumulated wealth, we
have devoted ourselves to material en-
terpr1ses with extraordinary success,
but there has underlain all of that,
all the time, a common sense of hui
mainly and a common sympathy with
the high principles of justice which
has never grown dim in the field even
of enterprise, and it has been my
very great joy in these recent months
to interpret the people of the United
States to the people of the world.
"A great many of my colleagues in
American university life got their
training, even in political science, as
so many men in civil circles did, in
German universities. 1 have been
obliged at various times to read a
great deal of bad German, difficult
German, awkward German, and /
have been aware that the thought was
as awkward as the phrases, that the
thought was rooted In a fundamental
miscOnceptiOn of the state and of the
political life of peoples. And it has
been a portion of my effort to dis
engage the thought of American uni
versity teachers from the misguided
instruction which they had received
on this side of the sea. Their Ameri-
can spirit anticipated most of them,
as a matter of course, but the form
of thought sometimes misled them.
They speak too often of state as a
thing which would ignore the individ-
ual, as a thing which was privileged
to dominate the fortune of men by a
sort of inherent and sacred author
ity.
"Now as an utter democrat, / have
never been able to accept that view of
the state. My view of the state is
that it must stop and listen to what
l have to say. no matter how humble
l am, and that each man has the
right to have his voice heard and his
counsel needed in so far as it is
worthy of him."

NATIONWIDE BOMB PLOT
DISCOVERED I'M CHICAGO
Authorities See Big Plan for Reign Of
Terror-Four Anarchists
Arrested.

Chicago, May PA nationwide
campaign of terror, including a series
of bomb outrages on July 4, is be-
lieved to have been nipped at its in
ception with the capture of four noto-
rious anarchists here by Detectives
Egan and McDonough.
In their possession was found litera-
ture indicating that Independence day
had been marked for a wholesale up
rising of anarchists to liberate impris-
oned anarchists and radicals and as a
protest against the deportation of
reds.
1t was thought by the federal au-
thorities following the arrest that the
prisoners might possibly be connect
ed with the recent "Gimbel bomb" af-
fair, in which bombs we're sent to a
score of the leading officials and citi-
zens of the country.
A lengthy examination % the pris-
Oners, however, revealed to the au-
thorities that the anarchists could not
have actively participated in the plot.
They have all been recently released
from the Wisconsin state prison at
Waupun.
They had been sentenced to %
years Imprisonment for alleged COM
plicity in the bomb explosion in Sep
TENDER, 1917, at Milwaukee, in which
nine policemen and a woman were
killed
They are Marie and Pasquale Mar
DIM, husband and wife, and their six
year-old son, Reno, and Joe Fratiffe
and Adolphe Fratesi. Marie Nardini
is known nationally to police and rad
zeal circles as queen of the an
archists."
The quartette, with two other an
archists, were ordered released from
the penitentiary by the state supreme
court of Wisconsin after rehearing
OF their case by that body.
