country. He formerly favored taking
the league of nations out Of the treaty
and ratifying the peace settlement
with Germany. Now he suddenly
changes front.
What has become of the high pro-
fesions of last year? Last October,
when Germany sought terms for the
armistice the Senators now seeking
to kill this treaty shouted for uncon-
ditional surrender. They demanded
terms of peace dictated to Germany.
They insisted that the United States
should to the last maintain the closest
cooperation with the allied govern
ments. They said it would be a breach
of faith if we failed to stand by Poland
and other nations formed as a result
Of the war.
Now what change. The treaty
has been negotiated, Germany has
signed it. Germany has ratified it.
Great Britain and Belgium have done
the same; France, Italy and Japan
will do so in rapid succession. The
treaty dictates the terms to Germany
just as these Senators demanded it
should.
Would Abandon Allies
But now the same Senators. who
insisted on a dictated peace, propose
to abandon it and negotiate a peace
settlement on terms acceptable to Ger
many. 1t is suggested that we desert
our associates and negotiate a sepa-
rate treaty. 1t is proposed that we
adopt a policy of quit and scuttle. 1t
is proposed that we repudiate our obl-
cations and like cravens leave them
to be performed by the nations lately
associated with US.
WAS there ever more insane inter
national policy proposed? In the mix
ture of poltroonary and folly it is diff
cult to see which predominates. The
Senator from Pennsylvania goes the
limit. He not only proposes that we
desert our friends and abandon our
obligations, but he suggests that we
reloose Germany from all promises
of indemnities and reparations Why
not go further and propose that we
compensate Germany? That would be
a still stronger appeal to German
sentiment"

Farmers Haue Much
Straw This Year;
Market Is Slow

This is a great year for straw. With
the government encouraging the pro-
duction of wheat and sheaf grains.
farmers have large stocks of straw left
after thrashing.
A trip on any of the roads leading
out of Richmond will reveal stack af-
ter stack OF straw waiting until the
owner can get time to bring il to
market or decides the price Is favor
able.
Paper Makers Use Much.
The papermaking industries are
using more straw than ever, but the
increase from this source Is not
enough to counter-balance the increas-
ed wheat yield of this year. The opin-
ion seems to prevail that this years
wheat crop will be below normal. In
fact 1t will be above the average, but
not as great as was originally estimau-
ed when the farmers SO promptly rs-
sponded to the government program
The common enemies Of wheat have
been at work this year. Drouth, in
one section and too much rain in an
other, combined with rust have taken
their usual toll of the yield, but the
increased acreage will make up the
loss. All of which means more straw.
Market is Slow.
An open winter would mean that
much will be wasted The supply
would be greater than the demand,
with a subsequent lowering in price
to point where the farmer would not
bother to load it and come to market.
A severe winter, on the other hand.
would mean that much straw would
be needed with corresponding strong

Rheumatism !?

Those of us who are past middle age
are prone to eat too much meat and IN
consequence deposit lime-salts in the
arteries, veins and joints. We often
suffer from twinges of rheumatism or
lumbago, sometimes from govt, swollen
hands or feet. There is no longer the
slightest need of this, however, as the
new prescription, "Anuric," is bound
to give immediate results as it is many
times more potent than lithia, in Kidding
the impoverished blood of its poisons
by way of the kidneys. 1t can be OBJ
tanned at almost any drug store, by
simply asking for rAnuric" for kidneys
or backache. 1t will overcome such
conditions as rheumatism, dropsical
swellings, cold extremities, scalding and
burning urine and sleeplessness due to
constant arising from bed at night.

CHAPTER XIX.
German Prison Camps.


A few days after / had been dashed
to the barbed wire fence some OF the
German officers came to the barracks,
and one of them who spoke very good
English said: Cali of the neutrals who
were on unarmed ships step out"
Only few stepped out.
Then he called for all the neutrals,
and the Danes. Swedes, Norwegians,
Brazilians and Spaniards stepped out.
But when I did, he said, "No, not
Americans. Americans are not neu-
trail. America supplies our enemies
with food and ammunition" He raised
his fist, and I thought he was going to
hit me, but instead he gave me q
shove that caused me to fall and get
little cut Oh the head. Then the
sentries pushed me over with the
British and the French.
After that they took the Norwegi-
ans, Swedes and Danes to separate
barracks, and gave them clothes and
beds and the same rations as the Ger
man soldiers. When I saw this !
made kick and said was a neutral
too, and ought to get the same treat
ment as the Scandinavians. They took
me to the officers again, kicked me
about and swore at me, and the only
answer l got was that America would
suffer for all she had done for the al
lies. Then was sent back to the bar
racks again.
The next day at about one O'Clock
they took us from the barracks an(
drilled US through the swamps. The
men began to fall one by one, some
crying or swearing, but most of then
going along without word. Those
who went down were smashed in tn,
head with rifle butts or belts.
Finally we arrived at a little rail
road station, and had to stand in tn
snow for over an hour while the en-
CINE ran up and down the tracks hook
ing on cars. When we finally got IL

now. They gave each Of us q piece
a little larger than safety-match
box.
The bread was hard and dark, and
l really think they made it from trees.
1t had just exactly the same smell
that the dirt around trees has.
We filed past the sentries single file
to get our ration of this mud, and
there was no chance Of getting in line
twice, for we had to keep on filing
until we were out in the road, and
stand there in the snow to eat it. We
could not go back in the barracks IN
til every man had been served.
Our meals were like this: A can of
barley coffee in the morning; cabbage
soup, SO called. at noon: tenth of a
| loaf of bread at 8 p. m. That was
eour menu day in and day out, the
kaiser's birthday, Lincoln's, May day
or any other time.
This cabbage soup was a great idea
We called it shadow soup, because the
boys claimed they made it by hanging
a cabbage over a barrel of water an(
letting the shadow fall on the water
We pretended, too, that if you found
any cabbage in it, you could take YOU
dish back for second helping. Blu
l never saw anybody get more thar
one dishful. All it was, was JUS

We tried to go to sleep that night
but there were so many sentrie

ed "NichtS "a essen But we did
not know what that meant, so we just
hung around there and waited. Then
they started shouting, "Zuruck! Zu-
ruck!" and drove us back to the bar
racks.
Later we heard the words "nichts
zu essen !" so often that we thought
probably they meant mo eats" We
had our reasons for thinking so, too.
Those words, and 'Zuruck" and
"'raus," were practically all we Gid
hear, except, Of course, various kinds
of schweinhunde.
It was awful to see the men when
we got back to the barracks. Scc;e of
the boys from the George, not much
over twelve years old, were almost
crazy, but even the older men were
crying, many of them. It was nothing
but torture all the time. They opened
oil the windows and doors in the bar
racks, and then we could not heat the
room with our bodies. When we start
ed to move around, to keep warm, they
| fired q few shots at US. I do not
know whether they hit anyone or not ;
we had got so that we did not pay any
attention to things like that. But it
stopped us, and we had to stand still.
The Huns thought we would take the
rifles from the sentries and use them
too.
