PLAYING THE OLD TUNES.

Nothing is clearer than that some of the nations
invited to the disarmament conference are trying to
have the program arranged SO that they will not be
required to make decision. They don't want those
subjects brought up which the conference has been
called to settle That it is superfluous to remind the
discriminating reader is the course of traditional old
world diplomacy. If certain nations can be assured
they will not be disturbed they will be delighted to
attend and give all the pledges the world can ask
Had the peace conference at Paris given its time
and energies to making peace under conditions al
ready accepted the world would not today be stand
ing on its head instead of its feet 1t when the
delegates allowed themselves to be drawn away from
the set purpose OF the conference that their colossal
bunder controlled everything Terms of peace are
one thing, and compromising upon political claims
among nations antagonistic for centuries is some
thing else.
If the Washington meeting is dragged away from
its purpose as certain nations trying to drag It,
that conference will do little to bring armament
limitations the Versailles meetings did to bring
peace. The nations that have something to conceal
something to protect which is ndefensible the world
longing for peace, is entitled to know what those
thing are.

Bursum can lead the people in their new aspir-

interesting to note how the senator reacts to the new

1t is still very problematic as to what is In the
democratic mind. There can be no large enthusiasm

RUssIAs DEPLoRABLE CONDITION.

The appeal for help sent ito all governments" by
George Tchitchern Russian soviet minister of for
egn affairs confirms other reports Of the deplorable
condition Of Russia. condition to which that great
nation has been brought by the operation of bolshe-
vk rule. 1t appears that something like 900
persons must have immediate help if they are to be
barely kept alive And this is of the greatest food
producing countries on the face of the globe.
This is the result of the operation of a system
which has destroyed all individual initiative, and
which simply lives the accumulated capital of pre-
vous years, discouraging production and ensaving
the people in worse degree than they were en-
shaved even in the days of serfdom. Showing the
utterly destructive effect of the theories which have
prevailed in Russia in recent years, the Wall Street
Journal gives some comparative figures of the prod
ucts of that country and of other nations.
In 1913 Russia produced $50, 100000 bushels OF
wheat. Our crop that year was 750,000.000 bushels
Its oats crop l. 225 900 bushels or about Is
per cent more than ours 1t produced more barley
than all the rest Of Europe and nearly as much as
the entire outside world Its rye crop 900 600
bushels while the rest of the world the United States
included, raised about 100000, 900 bushels.
In the same year Russia raised four times as
many potatoes does the United States in normal
years; its production approxmated one-thrd the
worlds total. 1t was large producer and exporter
of beet sugar Aside from the United States 1t was the
greatest livestock country in the world Russia was
the fourth largest spinner of cotton. A world
survey Of the cotton industry of January l. show
ed $4,000 Russian spindes running and $3.50, 900
idle The proportion holds true in all industry and
transportation. The people freeze in land Of forests
coal and petroleum, and they starve in a land of
boundless agricultural and grazing territory.

ADULT BULL SNAKE IN
ALFALFA FIELD WORTH
$3.50 A MONTH, CLAIM
IfBx The Assoclated Press.l

Manhattan, Kan, Aug. IA
full-grown bull-snake in q Kansas
alfalfa field is worth at least $3.50
n month to the farmer on whose
land he lives.
This is the statistical deduction
of experts at the Kansas State Ag-
ricultural college there. They ar
rive at it in this way:
There are on the average SIX
gophers to the acre and they dam
age the alfalfa crop to the extent
Of about $3.50 a month. A bull-
snake of this kind can keep an
acre free.
The calculations are those OF
F. L. Hisaw, mammalogist at the
college, and j. B. Rogers OF lts
zoology department.
"a full-grown bull-snake." says
Mr.. Hisaw, sis capable OF eatlng
all the gophers on an acre or all
falfa in one month and during
the six warm months OF the year
Is able to clear six acres.
alfalfa growers should take
serious thought Of the economic
importance of theseN harmless
snakes. BY protecting them a
great deal of time and money can
be saved In trapping and poison
ing gophers and other rodents,
The bull-snake feeds on rats
and mice when around the barn or
granary. The only return he asks
| for his loyal and valuable service
is the right to live an undisturbed
life."

More menacing than fog or Storm
when evil seemed to rule the world
With death dealt out in hdeous FORM
When courage with gigantic stride
Met fearlessly the wage of sin,
And ships and souls went bravely forth
To fight to perish and to win
Munitions with their murderous power
Stole overseas from Jerseys shore,
Ard the returning empty craft
The soil of France as ballast bore.

What flower the earth from Flanders Yields
The blood Of France for which bled,
Has blossomed in the Jersey fields.

PROPER FACE WASHING.

One woman / know has per-
fectly marvellous skin, milk white
and delicately fine in texture. She
never uses water on her face at all.
In the morning when she gets up,
she rubs cold cream skin food on
her face, and let's it stay on during
the ten minutes or so that she is
getting dressed. Then she wipes 1t
off, powders her face and does
her hair, which was pinned back
to keep 1t away from the cream.
And / know another woman who
has a rudy, clear, healthy and
beautiful skin, who uses neither
cold cream nor powder.
So there you are--you can al
ways prove anything you want on
the example set by your friends!
If you have very dry skin, as
the aforementioned woman has, the
