In this, connection, j., A Olson, dis
trlct agricultural agent for Nurth Mis-
sisaippi, stated that the horticultural
agents Of five counties In his district

IT, MIR, Turner plans TO ship so car
loads Of hogs and has been conducting
the pork producing industry In his
county on a wholesale plan. He has
been buying carloads Of hog feed for
the farmers, has just bought car of
hog oil and bought a carload Of wire

J. f. Mckay, market specialist Of the
extension department of Mississippi,
who accompanied Mr., Willis and Mr..
Olson to Memphis, gave some facts
concerning the marketing Of the Mis-
sissipi Irish potato crop. The move
ment of the crop has begun in tho
southern part OF the state, he said, and
Is bringing a "tair' price, This Is
$3.50 per hundredweight, I, o. b. 1T
looks as II the market would hold
flrm, he said. He has some apprehen-
sion, however, over the fact that the
lateness of the Mississippi crop has
caused Its marketing movement to start
| concidentally with the movement Of
potatoes all over the South from Vir-
gnia to oklahoma.
MIssIssipprs commercial crop Of po-
tatoes will be only about half this year

to the planting season having been de-

wet weather prevailed throughout the
period Of planting. This made It diff

cases other crops were substituted.

the annals of the Haitiens as marking
the beginning of the history of the
island.
columbus now called the island
Hispaniola in honor of the country
which had sent him forth to discover
It. and it is to be regretted that this
name given by the immortal discov-
erer has been lost, for its present two
names are conflicting and confusing.
Columbus then determined to build
a permanent settlement, and after re-
connoitering, he selected for this pur-
pose a site on an elevated plain near
q spacious bay on the north coast of
the island. Here was established the
first town in the New York, which was
Gignified by the name Of his queen
and patron, Isabella.
But the course of empire was still
south, and soon Santo Domingo City
became the center Of the colonial ac-
tivities.
"A little love affair connected with
the growth of this city is interesting.
One of the Spanish party, Miguel Dias,
having gotten into difficulty with an
officer, severely wounding him in COM
bat. fled to escape punishment. Find
ing shelter in an Indian village and
being received with much cordially
end hospitality, he in return gave his
heart to the young Caguisas. who was
then governing the tribe. His protes-
tations met with favor, and the young

sentences. France is cleaning house
and cleaning 1t so thoroughly that 1t
il teaching a solemn lesson to all
Frenchmen that traitors will never be
tolerated.
The number of these cases may lead
to the conclusion that France was Pc
culiarly remiss. It has been disclosed,
for instance, that the Gazette des
Ardennes. published in the French Ian
guage during the war by the German
staff, was really largely written by in
teiligent Frenchmen, three of them be-
ing officers of the French army. 1t
may appear that perhaps France
should have been more careful, IL for
no other reason than to protect the
armies of her allies. During almost
the entire period of Americas active
participation In the hostilities the
American army was largely dependent
upon the French intelligence service
for protection from enemy spies as well
as for information to enemy plans and
morale.
But back of the numerous convic-
lions Is a situation which none of the
other allies had to deal with. Between
France and Germany, especially in
Alsace and Lorraine. live thousands
of people who are as much German
as French and readily pass in both
countries for either. Hundreds of
these people embraced the French
cause only to forsake it during the
dark days of 1917 when German vic
tory seemed assured. France might
easily try them in secret, condemn
them in secret and execute them in
secret, and the world, or at least the
world that was in France and knew,
would not complain, so after all there
Is something heroic about this spec
tacle of nation killing off its trail
tors. At least France is teaching a
lesson not only to it's own countrymen
but to other nations that the traitor
may expect nothing else than the most
severe punishment and disloyalty will
not and never should be countenanced.

THE SALEM WASH TUB.

Battle, If at all. not in a porcelain
bath, but in the old family wash tub,
is the advice of Salem lawyer. des-
c-ibed by the Salem Journal as 'cele-
brated orator.
He insists that bathing in the prim-
it, and living in "shack" as they lived
is contributive to sturdy character.
But why stop with the wash tub and
the shack? If, as this new economist
says, Salem Is to be made the second
great city Of the state by the wash tub
and the shack, why not abolish the
street car lines. and hoof it like the
pioneers did? Also, to carry out this
rule of the primitive, Danish automo-
biles from Salem streets and watch
the capital city grow.
When the legislature convenes ap-
portion one wash tub, say, to each doz-
en- members, and put the city under
martial law and let no guilty solon es-
cape who dares to lave himself in a
modern bath tub.
Send a committee to the governors
house, tear out the porcelain tub there
and have the legislature make an ap-
preparation for the purchase of an Of
ficial wash tub, and by all means for
bid his excellency from taking bath
oftener than once a month. No gov
ernor, in this new scheme, has a right
to be over clearly about his person or
to appear at public functions in other
| than a dirty shirt. To fully carry out
the scheme the barber shops ought to
be closed and the mayor of Salem be
deprived fhis razor. He ought to be
made to wear moccasins. a coon-skin
cap and buckskin brooches that i'm
mensely lengthen when the weather
is moist and ldaw up to the knees in
summer time. In no case should ne
as thrilling example set before youth,
be allowed anything larger than a
wooden bucket for his bath. We didn't
know it, but this civilization of ours
is all wrong. Salem, IL 1t accepts the
leadership of its new Moses. will pres
emily show us the power of the wash
tub and shack as city builders.

A BILLION AND A HALF NEEDED,

m NE of the principal values of a
III recently created commission sent
abroad is to inform the Ameri-
can people of the actual needs
of Europe. Frances minimum needs
for the coming year have been esti-
mated at s6o0,oo0.o00. Italy's are prob
ably more, while those of Belgium,
which have shown a tremendous recup-
rative ability are hardly likely to be
much more than s100,000,000. These
were the figures current at the con-
ference. Approximately a billion and
a half dollars will thus be asked dur
ing 1920 from American investors by
these three countries.
The British loan of $25o,o0o,ooo now
on the market, is a specific example of
the opportunities which will be offered
to American investors to give concrete
proof of the breadth of their vision
and of their understanding of the i'm
portance of the present movement.
There can be. Of course. no question
of the safety and soundness of securi-
ties offered by the British government.
Next to the bonds OF our own govern
ment they are perhaps the strongest in
the world. To have them available at
a rate to yield upwards of six per cent
| is to have an Unprecedented opportun-
lily.
England has always been the best
customer of the United States. She
still stands to hold that position, but
her ability to continue to buy In this
market is hampered by the disparity of
exchange. This disparity can be re-
moved and English industry can begin
large scale production. only If the
American investing public, whose pros
perity depends upon English prosperity.
sees fit to buy these offerings.

all kinds, notably food and fuel. have
added to the completely of living.
One thing of which the moralists
complain is the diminishing size OF
the families. They claim that the
love of ease is responsible for the
shrinkage, while others, viewing the
matter from an economic standpoint
at the fact that children are liabilities
under new conditions instead of as
sets as under old arrangements Is
to blame. Whether both are partly
right is probably an open question for
debate.
But there Is no question but that
as the civilization standard raises the
men and women marry at q later age
and likewise the size of the family
diminishes. That Is not theory, II
Is an actual condition.
So as the civilization gets more
complex the rights of the public are
of more moment. 1t is the poor who
feel the full effects of the bitches In
the arrangements for the distribution
of necessities of all kinds. That is why
the coal strike Is SO unpopular. The
public will get the worst Of 1t and
so 1t is no longer a question of the
rights of a few select. organized indi-
viduals. The coal miners are defyine

WHAT THE PRESS OF THE
NATION SAY
WHAT THE GOVERNMENT FACES
IN THE COAL STRIKE,
(Tribune, New York;

tAiADdiN, INcW IOIhl
President Wilson says that the strike
planned by the coal miners unions
Is immoral and illegal. Its immortality
is manifest. The unions have con-
tract with the coal operators, made
with the sanction of the federal fuel
administration. That contract has not
Vet expired. 1t was to continue in force
curing the war period, but not later
than April l. 1920.
Our government faces an enterprise
conceived in immortality and illegality.
II can not do anything else than fight
it. Its own authority--its very exist
ence-is challenged by obstreperous
ininorities who want to satisfy their
own demands at the expense of the
community and of the principle of ma
jority rule. 1t is uncomfortable that the
government should permit itself and
the country to be held up by the coal
workers unions.
