4 j. + 4. 4 l. i J. :. i J. 4 i i \ K 1.

The part played by the Germans is
never to be overlooked or minimized.
The Germans developed bolshevism
and practically impregnated Russia
with it. They also developed the mil
itaristic system that nearly conquer
ed the world. Germany is badly shat
tered economically, but her determi-
nation to remain united and militar-
lily strong is evident. One revelation
after another proves the incurable
propensity of the Germans to coop
crate in military conspiracies against
neighboring peoples. Military equip
ment is secretly accumulated, volun-
teers are secretly drilled and doubt
less far-reaching plans are made by
some of the brains that participated in
the making of plans that nearly made
the Hohenzollerns masters of Eu-
rope.
Germany is still the enemy of Eu-
rope. 1t is idle to close the eyes to
this fundamental fact. If there re-
mains a substantial fragment of the
old German war machine, it may be
depended upon to work in and
through the Russian bolshevik organ
ization against the western allies. The
Russian people know nothing of the
outside world except what they are
permitted to know by the bolsheviki.
The bolsheviki in turn have been prov
ed to be the agents and dupes of the
Germans. Thus it is possible that the
Germa nwar machine is roughly di-
recting the movements in Russia not
to the extent desired by the Teutons,
but nevertheless usefully in the gen
eral scheme of Germany's restora-
ton to aggressive strength.
The allies have been hoodwinked

THE ONE CROP ERROR



Kentucky is suffering from the one
crop evil. The white hurley tobacco.
growers are agitating the planting of
no crop next year because of the
low price Of that variety, Of which
Kentucky is the chief producer. OF
tobacco OF oil varieties Kentucky pro
duces more than this total crops of
the next three largest producing states
which are North Carolina, Virginia
and Ohio. The latter is also bur-
ley tobacco producer, but in com
paratively small amount, while lit
tie is grown in one district in North
ern Missouri. This is the variety Of
tobacco used largely for plug and
some grades of cut smoking tobacco
and cigarettes. The hurley crop is
about one-fifth the total crop Of all
varieties in the United States. Just
now there is an overstocked market.
The growers claim that most of them
lost money this year, or will lose on
the prices that are expected to pre-
vail newt winter. This is not solely
because of excess production, but of
poor quality. There is too much Sec
ond-grade hurley. The land has been
continuously cropped to this single
variety SO long that production Of
high-grade hurley on it is practically
impossible. Therefore the growers
are seeking to organic fer the pur-
pose of making a mutual agreement
to plant no hurley tobacco next year.
A few years ago it will be remember
ed, when like situation arose with
regard to dark tobacco, there was a
season of night riding, whippings,
burnings, destruction of seed beds,
etc. The hurley growers are trying
to reach the same result by more
American methods. Instead Of to-
bacco they want some other crop
grown, possibly corn, though clover
would probably do the soil more good
if they intend to 60 bake to tobacco
the next year.
These tobacco growers are suffer
ing from the same bad farm policy
| which cost the cotton-growing states
millions of dollars every year for a
long term of years. Continuous cul-
tivation of a single crop depletes the
soil Of the plant food elements for
that crop and deteriorated soil re
suits in a smaller yield and inferior
quality. The smaller yield means loss
in quantity to sell on the part of
each grower, while the poor quality
makes for low price, harmful to
them all and the whole community.
| These evils are enough to cause any
one-crop district to change to a great
er diversity of production, but there
| is still another whose bad results at
times are even more striking. That
is a crop failure. In onecrop dis
trict crop failure mean. disaster TO
the whole district. Farmers cannot
buy; merchants cannon pay their bills,
and general stagnatlo> results. The
| movement for diversified farming in
the cotton states has made good head
way. A failure of the cotton crop
will never again be the widespread
disaster it was few years ago. The
South has other crops on which it
now relies for some Of its prosperity.
This lesson should be learned by the
tobacco districts, as well as the les
son of preservation of fertility of the
soil by diversifying the crops.
