Egypt, since 1882 a British protee-
tsrate. will shortly secure her indie
pendence.
From unimpe achAble sources close
-ly Identified with the long night for
autonomy Waged by the Egyptians.
this statement was made today with
out any qualification whatever.
The rigid establishment or the
British military protectorate over
Egypt in November, 1914, shortly
after the outbreak OF the world war
in the. minds OF many dipiomatists'
spelt death to all the hopes or the
Exyptian nationalists. But the steady
pressure brought TO bear upon the
British foreign office by EGYPTIAN pa
triots and by public opinion in the
nations allied with Great Britain dur
ing the war 1t IL believed, has nnsliy
achieved its purpose.
'.In my opinion the Egyptian ques-
ton will be settled permanently In
the near future" said a prominent
diplomat today. conferences 10 this
end are now being held in London
between the Zagloul Commission
representing the people OF Egypt and
the Miner Commission. representing
the British government"
Autonomy Decided.
Word reaching Washington today
indicated the early termination OF
these conferences with the announce
ment that the British government
had decided upon autonomy for
Egypt. The damaging effect OF lid
eral propaganda amongst the wild
tribes Of lower Egypt, as reported IN
recent cable dispatches. II IL believed,
will serve only to hasten the deter
mination OF the British government
to grant Egypt her independence
and thereby to remove the weakest
spot in the bridge of British Empire
toward the East.
Egypt, IL is pointed out. has become
thoroughly permeated with BoisneV'k
propaganda urging independence.
The effect Of this propaganda has
been strengthened geatly by the atti-
tude of the Egyptian nationalists'
which, despite all efforts of the Brit
ish government. has remained abso-
lutely irreconcilable to a continuance
of the protcctorate.
The Impending achievement OF
Egyptian independence marks the
elimination of struggle which is
one of the most interesting pages in
history.
In 1885 Egypt made war against
Turkey for the establishment or
Egyptian independence. The EEyp-
tian armies were successful and Con-
stantinople was about to fall before
the victorious Egyptian troops. when
the European powers. as always. in
terfered with the purpose OF preserv-
ing the balance of power. As result
of such intervention the treaty Of
London was concluded in 1871. under
the terms OF which Egypt became
autonomous and Independent to all
practical purposes. subject only to
the nominal suzerainty OF Turkey, I'M
der which Egypt. was required to pay
approximately the sum of fI00. 900
year to the Turkish government.

HOMEMADE SORGHUM
SIRUP RELIEF FOR
SUGAR SHORTAGE

AS a simple pracsical means Of
helping relieve the acute sugar and
sirup, shortage, the United States
Department of Agriculture recon
mends the increased production of
sorghum sirup, which, it is pointed
out, requires neither unusual skill
nor expensive equipment to make
Furthermore, the methods of grow
ing sorghum are similar to those of
corn, and in that respect involve
little that is new to farmers. Sirup
manufacture is so simple that it
can be carried on with profit by in
dividuals utilizing small-sized out =
fits of a daily capacity of 100 gal
Ions or less. Where operations on a
larger scale are feasible, communi-
ty plants having daily capacity of
several hundred gallons are sugges-
ted by the department.
Sorghum sirup is palatable and
pleasant Favored, and is an excel
lent table sirup. 1t can also be used
as a substitute for other sirups or
foI sugar in making certain breads,
cakes, etc, and as a substitute for a
part of the sugar used in making
preserves and the like. The cost of
producing it at home is relatively
low, and usually an individual
manufacturing it can readily sell
any excess over his home needs to
good advantage. Sorghum sirup
produced during the 1919 season
brought the producers from 80
cents to $3.50 gallon, depending
on the quality, marketing condi-
tions, etc. Thus fan the supply has
fallen far short of the market de-
mand.

WHY DO WE SMOKE

Why do people smoke asks DR..
W. A. Bloedorn, Lieutenant Com
mander in the Medical Corps of the
U. S. Navy, in an article entitled
"The Barbarous Custom of Smok-
ing" published in the Medical
Record. Dr. Bloedorn analyses the
craving for a smoke that was uni
vcrsal among soldiers and sailors
during the war, and then answers
n" question. From his answer the
following paragraphs are taken:
Tobacco is a means of diversion
which, far from interfering with a
mans performance of duty, attach
es him to it and renders it less bur-
densome.
r we smoke entirely for the

is abundant evidence to prove that
iaDaco answers this demand more
universally than any Of the other
sedativcs mentioned, that it reaches
a larger mass of people, and that 1t
accomplishes it's purposes with the
minimum of after effects.
There are some individuals who
cannot use tobacco; there are some
who should use it, there are some
who use it to excess and who suffer
in consequence. There is, on the
other hand, large army of moder-
ate tobacco users who indulge for
years without appreciably bad
physical effect. Each individual
must be his own judge, as to
whether he can use tobacco safely,
and also as to the amount he can
tolerate.
The tobacco habit may be likened
in many respects to the tea and cof-
fee habit. Each may do harm in
some cases; each may be a source
of comfort and solace in others.
Under ideal surroundings and en-
vironment the demand for each
might disappear.
If you class tobacco as form of
dissipation, at least you must
grant that it is mild form of dis
sipation. If you would deprive the
individual of his tobacco he would
be justified in making the same de-
land regarding your tea or coffee.
