RE-ENlERINC
WORLD TRADE

WASHINGTON, April 8.-German
preparations for re-entering world
markets proceed vigorously in many
lines of trade despite the social and
political unrest disturbing the country,
according to an official report to the
bureau of foreign and domestic COM
merce.
Recognizing that official Germany
will be in disrepute for years to come,
business interests are acting indie
pendently of the government, especi-
ally in urging the establishment in
foreign countries of German boards Of
trade and publication of a standard
economic journal to stimulate inter
est in German wares. Liberal use of
motion pictures as an educative meas
ure is recommended.
One of the important new undertake
ings in Germany is the Technical Fair
at Leipzig, intended to promote the
trade interests of manufacturers of
machinery, electrical apparatus, tools,
chemicals, etc. 1t includes brokers'
bureau to exploit the commercial
value of scientific inventions. >f}
Special attention to development of
commercial regulations with the Balk
ans, the Caucasus Ind Persia is being
shown by the Company for Home and
Foreign Undertakings of Hamburg, a
$5,950,00O corporation whose activi-
ties have been watched with interest
by business men of the allied coun-
tries. The Austro-G German eastern
group of this organization was said to
contemplate several large CONNER
cial and agricultural enterprises in
Turkey.
While business interests are work
ing independently, governmental
agencies, nevertheless, are not idle.
The ministries of Prussia, Bavaria
and Wurttemberg have provided
funds to finance scientific expeditions
in other countries.

LARGEST CROP.
ACREAGE IN 1918

WASHINGTON April S-More
than 56,OOO,OOO acres have been added
to the country's aggregate crop acre
age in the last ten years. Statistics
just announced by the department Of
agriculture show the countrys aggre-
gate last year to have been 367, 1888 900
acres, or 6O5,S40 square miles. That

area of continental United States,
almost two and one-half times the
size of the state of Texas, and about
ten times the land area of the entire
New England states. The number of
farms in the United States is esti-
mated at 6,717,0OO.
Texas has the largest aggregate
crop acreage, with 25,328,O00 acres, or

Illinois is third, with 21,727 900 acres,
or about, three-sevenths of her land

Iowa, in fourth place, is very close
to Illinois, with 21,613,O0O acres, which
is about three-sevenths of her land
area.

The writer Of this tribute has known
the deceased from childhood, in
young manhood, as a student in pre-

gentleman The official records bear
witness of daring exploits, of worthy
advancements as he attained most
worthily to his zenith. He modestly

many of his fellow officers and when
Chief of Staff Of the army, health

establish a tobacco market In Ohio

that product is produced annually.
Our own notion is, pool of all OHIO

persist in loose leaf sales they should
by all means establish such a market
in this county. There would be at

The necessary thirty-siX states have
amendment. and in January, 1919 the
United States will be as dry as the
Sahara Desert. Anti-liquor senti-
ment in this country had crystalized
rapidly. within the last dozen years
and the state of Nebraska drove the
last nail in John BarleycOrn's coffin
only a few days ago. We welcome
the experiment, and shall lend our
humble effort to the faithful enforce
ment of the law. However, We can
not fully share the hopefulness of the
idealist who expects a constitutional
amendment to radically change the
habits and customs of the human
race. Much lawlessness and crime.
in scattered communities, may be eX-
pected to result of Illicit distilling.
Such a result is not an argument
against nation wide prohibition, and
we only mention it as contingency
that will likely result. drunken
nation must be sobered, and il is well
to lay the axe to the foot of the tree.
1t is first necessary to strike down
the system and then let opinions of
the people build from the wreckage
such a system, not perhaps as they
need, but such as in the very nature
of things they will have. Fortunate
ly for the government of the human
race grave questions have a way
of finally working themselves out.
and while tired nerves will still be
finding some stimulating beverage
when Gabriel sounds the trumpet call
of time, let us hope that nation wide
drunkenness may never again curse
our fair land.

Evidences accumulate that with the
wearing off of the novelty OF his vis-
it President Wilson's popularity in
Europe is waning. We hear little of
the fourteen points now. and Europe
is coming to know Mr.. Wilson as
we know him. a man with lofty ideals
but thinker of theories rather than
a doer of deeds. France is growing
Jealous of the numerous appeals made
to him by the Germans. and England
is going doggedly along toward set
tling the greater questions involved
without overmuch consideration of
French demands or Wilson theories.
The one big fact that looms out of
the peace conference so far is that
England is going to have the Big
Voice in settling the big questions at
issue. If human nature in Eu-
rope is not different from hu-
man nature on this side of
the Atlantic the people over there
will be inclined to resent the
Presidents implied assumption that
his personal presence was necessary
to guide the European statesmen
around the pitfalls. There is little
doubt now that had the President re-
manned at Washington and made
himself heard at the peace confer
ence through a commission of really
great American it would have been
better both for his influence and his
fame in that disturbed quarter.

Pneumonia. resulting from infiu-

for graduate nurses to come to Hart
ford for service. On account OF the
prevalence of the disease in various
sections of the state much difficulty
has been met in securing such useful
attendents. Always useful. the train
ed nurse is doubly appreciated while
the dreaded influenza is scourging
the country. These good women,
who are devoting their lives to the
alienation of human suffering, well
deserve the title of angels of Mer-
cy." Only a human heart, touched
to pity by the suffering of mankind,
could lay by the lighter pleasures OF
life and live in the gloom of the sick
room and in the appalling shadows of
the chamber of death. No dream of
wealth, no hope of fame, entice these
