WHY NOT SORGHUM?

The average farmer thinks the city
man can tell him very little, II anything,
about his trade, so that we feel good
deal of hesitation in calling his attention
TO the dispatch in The Sun Thursday
from Sharptown, Md, about the sorghum
mill that MIR. T. T. McGordy is running
on his farm near there OF course, every
farmer hasn't inherited a sorghum mill,
and few of them would care to buy one
ON a venture. But what Mr.. McGordy is
doing with his old mill and the amount
of sorghum cane that may be raised on one
acre of ground are very suggestive IN these
davs when all sweet things come so high.
sorghum NAV be used for the same pur-
noses as molasses, and. with proper ma
chinery. can be crystallized into sugar.
An acre of land adapted to sorghum viii
nrod,lce cane enough to make from 100
to 200 gallons Our dispatch says the
cane acreage near Sharptown Is larger
than ever known there.
! Next wear sugar and molasses may be

Lodges Democratic
Support
From Tho Nov York World.

Mr.. Harding and bis Republican friends
evidently hope to make much of the fact
that twcnty-one Democratic Senators
voted last March IN favor of the ratlfica-
ton Of the treaty with the Lodge reserva-
tions. In perfect candor, they should ex-
plain the circumstances that led 70 tins
action.
For many weary months the treaty had
been under consideration. The Senate was
divided into three groupH-thosc VINO
favored accepting the treaty as signed,
those who openly advocated its REJECTION
and those who avowed a willingness 10
concur provided they could attach tn
the document certain reservationS or
amendments more or less nullbyng ~

Efforts at reasonable cornpromiSe
having failed, il became evident that un-
less We were "a remain indefinitely IN
state Of war and decline 10 take any part
in restoring tranquility 10 a disTdefed
world. the treaty with the Lodge ois-
chalmers would have 10 be ratificd az the

self there never was any purpose to com

American participation, even though
hesitating and in some respects otStrlc-
tive. was essential not only to the preserva-
ton OF the fruits Of victory and the re,
establishment Of peace but 70 the renewal
Of international law.
