There is dearth of obtainable
dwelling houses in Ladysmith that IS
hurting the town. Many desirable
prospective residents cannot obtain
even temporary homes here, and, fur
thprmorc. very few homes are being
built
The high cost of building materials
high wages and unsettled conditions,
generally. are the principal factors
which are holding w0uld-be home OWL
crs and capitalists back from making
huilding investments this summer. 1t
is true that some kinds of building
materials have dropped III price some,
but labor still maintains high, ana III
many instances money that could have
gone into new homes has. i'll these times
of initiation. been used in other, and
less cOmmendable directions.
Families and family men arrive here
almost daily and would like to re-
main. but the most of them are unable
TO obtain dOmicileS. This condition OF
affairs has enabled many residents
who desired to sell their homes TO do
so. nut Il large HuIIIDcI W no lttNC SUM-
their homes at price that appeared at
tractive. soon found themselves i'll the
same boat with the prospective citizen
they had difficulties in getting a
place in which to live. and only very
few sold out with the intention OF
leaving Ladysmith.
Ladysmith cannot grow much until
conditions change. y building con-
tractor said. the other day. that there
is a type of building which can he
built reasonably cheap and can be sold
or rented at a reasonable profit, even
at present prices for labor and mater
ials 1t would he Il fine thing if some
one with capital would take this mat
ter up. either independently or i'll CON

a building program here this summer.

Two organizations claiming to rep
resent the farmers of the country have
made representations concerning the
wishes of the agricultural classes upon
important policies of government. The
National Grange has gone on record III
opposition to government ownership OF
the railroads The Farmers National
Council. always tending towards So
cialistic ideals. urges government OWN
ership and what it calls democratic
operation
What the Farmers National Council
really means is the adoption of the
Plumb plan which would call for the
issuance of $20000.000.000 worth of
government bonds for the purchase Of
the railroads which would then be
turned over to a committee to operate,
which committee would be dominated
by the employees of the roads. 1t may
be expected that the Farmers Ma
tiOnal Council will be hand-inglov
with the Wilson administration as it
has been in the past. The Grange. on
the other hand, has heretofore kept
out of partisan politics, but its mem
berS. thoroughly disappearing the So
Cialistic movement. may be expected
to enlist in overwhelming numbers in
support of the Republican candidates.
All farmers who believe that they
should be taxed for funds with which
to purchase the railroads and turn
them over to railroad employees to OPP
Ex-i,t
compensation and thereby determin-
ing the rate of freight the farmer shall
pay-will vote the Democratic ticket.
Those farmers who believe i'll private
ownership of the railroads with regu-
latiOn of rates by the Interstate Com
merce Commission. will vote the Re-
publican ticket Thus we shall have
a sort of referendum on the question
of the Plumb plan.

German Farmers Hide Guns

Berlin-There is reluctance on the
part of some German farmers to sur.
render their firearms, due to "the legi.
innate desire to protect their homes
against marauders," Minister of Agri-
culture Braun said. He added, that a
number of farmers have been storing
arms deliberately for subservice pur-
poses" but he said these were not as
numerous as generally believed. IF
the people only will keep their heads"
Herr Braun said, Il do not believe
there will be any outbreak in the near
future"

Warsaw-Owing to the critical con-
dition of the country volunteers for
active service in the army are offering
themselves from every side. They in
clude school and university teachers,
students, Boy Scouts, civil servants
and ministerial employees whose occu-
pations excuse them for military SER
vice. The students are enlisting in
such numbers that the Warsaw uni
versities have been closed.
Stirred by the appeal of the national
council of defense for volunteers, hun
dreds of girls and women have taken
initial steps to join the army. Uni
formed women soldiers with women
officers paraded the streets singing,
and for the first time Warsaw saw de-
tachments of female recruits under
the guidance of women officers march
ing to the barracks.
Many of the recruits were strong
girls in short skirts and shirtwaists,
with braided hair hanging down their
backs. The sight % female recruits
aroused enthusiasm everywhere.
Mixed with the girl recruits were wo-
men Of Is to 80 years. The women's
battalions will be used chiefly for
guard duty in garrisons and food de-
pots and as train escorts, thus reliev-
ing men for the front lines.
