Enulish Women Buying Farms.

Women in England are buying their
run farms or their own truck and gar
Den spaces in rather conspicuous num-
hers. And this Is all an outcome Of
the tremendous work done by women
on the land during the war. The gen.
eral feeling is that there will not he
much room for the common female
farm Iahnrer as time advances, but for
1he woman who has little money and
who looks upon. farming as her pro-
fesSion and her life work there Is ex-
ee'Ient opportunity In this direction.
IN the first place, on account Of the
campact location Of the garden spaces
and the cities in England transporta-
1ivn OF footfstuffs Is easy. Then gar
den truck and flowers do grow abun-
dainty and profusely there, and always
6nd ready markets.

First American Ship Back from Ger

First American Ship Back from Ger
man Port.
New York, April 9.-The American
steamship West Humhaw, the first
American ship to enter Gcrmas port
since America declared war, returned
here today from Danzig. She left the
Baltic port March 10 after delivering
cargo Of pork products sent from the
United States for the relief Of the
Poles.
Captain Hatfield commander, said
that everything was very quiet in
Danzig during the Is days that his ship
was there.
Th, oc,U. ns," he Hai,:. 1aid them
selves out to natter us Americans.
They were all friends to the United
States, according to themselves and
blamed their troubles on the English
and French.
"As far rs I could see they did not
seem to have many troubles. 1 have
been many times in German ports, but
| never saw people looking more ,pros-
porous or better dressed than in Dan
zig. Nobody was doing any work, but
I'as the government paid them eight
marks a day for doing nothing they
did not seem to think there was any
necessity for working. The two things
they appeared very short Of were soap
and sugar. If a man had piece of
soap he locked it up in a safe and they
would steal anything sweet if it was
not nailed down."
Captain Hatfield said not much had
been done toward cleaning up the mine
fields in the North Sea and the Baltic.
His ship took six days zig-zagging
along through the mine fields and he
received repeated warnings not to an
chor or even cast his lead The winds,
he said, set loose flocks Of mines and
ships were in constant peril from these
floating menaces as we'll as from 9th
crs on the sea bottom in shoal waters.
The West Humhaw brought a uuan-
tity Of mail from the American navy
and army officers and other officials
who are engaged in relief work in
! Poland and Germany

Opera House Has Life story OF Gen.
cral Pcrshing.
The William Fox photoplay that is
coming to the Opera House Friday
called "The Land Of the Free" is de-
clarcd to be the most important one
that has been before the public for
years. There is nothing comparable
in interest to the ifc story OF General
PcrShing, the subject Of this extra
ordinary picture.
This photoplay holds a place OF its
own, for nothing like It has ever been
attempted before. IT happens that the
life story Of the man who Is leading
our troops In France is full OF advcn-
ture and excitement and thrills, and
1t possesses romance and the dcepcst
Of tragedy
The name Pershing is on every
tongue these days and il Is surprising
how little we know about him. This
picture unrccls such n story as could
not have been dreamed Of by the live
liest fiction writer. 1t has thrill and
