TIE FARMER,s PROFITS

The results as reported by Prof P M Green. who has charge of the work are startlino They show that the farmer in the five years nrc- ceding the scarcely made expenses .-ro,,i,-, wheat lost money oats and made onlv a small profit on corn.

 We are not concerned much with returns dur ing the war however. with what farm products will bring when business settles down again.
 The farmer knows and the consumer should learn that the prices which paid for farm products before the war were generally not remuneratve As a result we were falling behind rapidly as a food ex- port nation and beginning look other coun- tries for part of the food consumed. The war has taught us that we can greatly increase food production without expanding present area if only the stimulus of remunerative prices is provided

Where the Analogy Falls Down

An argument designed to meet the objections which have been made to the constitution of the League of Nations takes back the Circumstances surrounding the birth of the federal constitution We told that if do not exactly like the of the League of Nations neither did all the participants in the constitutional convention like the constitution it was finally adopted It did not precisely please of the delegates the convention; was the suit of necessary compromise. Therefore. though the covenant may not meet views entirely yet we should concede something just the delegates the constitutional convention did.
 This advice of course is primarily directed at the senate of the United States which it is expected will reject tho covenant. Now here the lack of analogy begins. The constitution or at least constitution a necessary thing We had to have a basic law of sort. it was essential that an agreement should be reached. Bu in the view of many Americans it is not essential that should have League of Nations
 However. the objections that have been heard are not 10 the principle of the league to the constitution that has been presented That is not a work of com promise the part of the people of America The senate without whose assent it cannot he adopted has not been heard from at all in reference to it It is perhaps not result of any compromise among the representatives at the peace conference
 According to Mr. Charles H. Grasty, correspondent for the New York Times the representatives of Great Britain and France indifferent to the project and no immediate need of a league of nations It was rather forced them by the president alone is nsstent that it shall included in the peace treaty We may assume that this is true for Mir Grasy is not only friendly to the president but is fully in accotd with the League of Nations notion and it is in the spirit of pride that he describes the manner in which the president enforced his views upon the foreign dele gates.
 When the delegates to the constitutional conven ton met they brought with them conflicting views from all parts of the thirteen colonies and the constt tuition they adopted a modification of those dif ferent views. The covenant of the League of Nations contains only tho views of Mir. Wilson tempered per haps by those of his associates at Paris yet essentially his views And this is the document which the senate IS asked to accept as compromise, of what?
 The senate has presented nothing and has had no opportunity to present anything. The president had no mandate from the people who have not sgnified that they want a league Of nations. The whole ttt is the presidents

we think very few of them the leaders who opposing the covenant for other than that the president is it's sponsor He could have brought back covenant that would have met with their ap- provaL
 Our citizens of socialistic and worse tendencies who neither democrats republicans for the covenant because of the nternationasm involved in it-somcthing in the direction of no-natonaism, a thing which has always been part of their dream. This think is the general lineup on the subject Of the League of Nations
 The great bulk of the people have not vet mani tested interest the subject. Their opinions regard ing it will be formed on the discussion of within the next two for is very evident that c friends hope to make an issue of it.
 There is, have stated majority Of our people who desire a better understanding among the nations in order that the causes and the chances of War be minmized but is also apparcnt that in arriving al this understandings the larger nations wish o sacrifice as little as possible and gan as much possible. The United States which has less to fear from has sacrifice in arriving at sucn an agreement It is quite plain that the matter is of so importance that cannot be disposed of quickly However excellent the covenant may be- it is the p-c duct of weeks of deiberaton in which only one American has had any part and he had declined the assistance and advice Of his fellow countrymeu It could hardly be expected In these circumstances that his countymen would accept the covenant without questioning. They willing 10 thrcsh out this buei- ness but that win take time
 An attempt to include it in the peace treaty will of course be made thus an issue will be made for it is certain that the will hold up the treaty rather than to give it's to the covenant in is present form any agreement nearly as indefinite as tfe present one

uDtIlA- NafCn ID. lNlN. To the Editor of The Republican. Dear Sir:
 In entering a League" of European nations, beware of European diplomacy. President Wilson is an exceedingly i'm tellectual man; hut he did not have the advantage Cor the disadvautaGe) of be- ing born in Europe only a European born and bred can appreciate the utter unreliabiHty of European diplomacy. It IS the patriotic duty of every European diplomatist Co deceive the dfplomatists Of other countries. This is recognized m Europe as selG-evidcnt fact. In conversation. the word "diulomatic. :" has the same meaning as "Jesuitical." ." President Wilson is meeting polished gentlemen of delightful manners and absolutely truthful and honest in their private lives; and he probably believes and trusts them. This is fatal error. These gentlemen are displomatists. That is to say, they are "Jesuits.r

"The heart is the great hishroad

 It is through the heart that man often most forclby comes to appreciate the value of saving. For upon what he saves, week by week or month by month in most cases de- bends the future happiness of his wife and children, ana other helpless members of his family. If a man reply that he has no such obligations, it only need be pointed out that no one lives who can tell when such obli- gatlons may not become part of his life Save now III this strong bank, interested vitally in the welfare of all its savings depositors.

Refining Work Upon Thy Soul.

To purge us Of our earthliness and
drOss, and purify our souls. and make
them meet for the Inheritance of the
saints and the society of angels and
the presence Of our God, we require
not only sprinklings and washings and
lustratiOns Of water and blood, but
more searching purifies still, even bap-
tisms of fire and fierce MEETINGS as of
silver in the Refiner's crucible. You
must first take away the dross from
the silver, ere there can come forth
n vessel for the finer. and II the pre-.
ciOus metal must be very pure the
heat Of the refiner's crucible must be
very intense. But is not the heat of
the furnace the special care of the
refiner? His heart is touched most
keenly with sympathy for thee, and
he only waits to withdraw thee from
the fiery trial the moment it hath
done its refining work upon thy soul

There are negligeeS and neglIgeeS
some of them elaborate and tilmy af-
fairs of chiffon or crepe and lace, that
float about the figure in lovely color
tints. Many are made of thin silks or
crepe de chine. others of sheer cottOns.
But the story of the variety of fabrics
used is short when compared to the
story of variety in design. We can
spend our hours of ease in clothes from
far Japan or China or India. or in
garments adapted from these oriental
sources. Or we can look to various
periods in French or other history for
inspirations and 60 as far as we like
in adaptations Of them. 1t is in negli-
gees that we are fancy free.
Among the prettiest and most prac-
tical styles are those in which the
negligee is in one piece and made of
taffeta silk in light cOlOrs. Lace or
net, and often both, are used with this
crisp, shimmering silk. and ribbons are
a matter of course on all negligees.
Each of these contributes its share
toward making the quaint and youthful
garment with easy, flowing lines, pic
tured here. 1t looks like an ample
coat over long skirt, but is all in one
piece. A flounce of lace headed with
a cording accounts for the coat effect,
aided by two patch pockets with
hounces across the top. Lace is gath
cred about the bottom of the robe and
finishes the very full. flowing sleeves
that are cut three-quarteIs length. u

Of wash fabrics for school and other
