Multiplying 40 by 1870 shows
that one OF the fields contained
20. 900 plots OF the dimension OF
one rail square, while multiply
ing lao by $50 shows that the
other field contained 2l.o00 such
squares. II is obvious. there

100 squares from their former

a loss Of one In every 2i0 They
will lose one squash out Of every

to exactly four squashes.

FRUIT, TREES MUST

The Horticulture Division of the
Department of Agriculture in the
Southeast Missouri State College, I'M
der the direction Of Prof. Logan, is
making special, study of the prun-
ing and spraying of fruit trees The
non-expert grower of fruit trees does
not understand that pruning is neces-
sary in order to provide proper vent
ilation and admit sunlight, so that
the fruit buds may acquire the neces-
sary vigor to mature into fruit Of the
desired quality and size. Pruning al

it is means of insuring ventilation
and light.
Spraying of fruit trees is necessary
in order to destroy harmful insects

OUR ARMY IN PEACE

At present there are about $4,000
in khaki. Even the men who were
most strongly advocating prepared
ness in 1916--such men as julius
Kahn in the House and James w.
Wadsworth in the Senate--regard any
such standing force as excessive I'M
der present conditions. The debate as
to whether the figure should be plac-
ed at 100000 or 10000 strikes most
observers as futile. What is really
needed is Skeleton force" large
enough for routine purposes. and SO or
ganized that it can be rapidly enlarged
in case of emergency. The policy of
Great Britain seems to be about the
same. So long as these two countries
have already taken a stand for linn
iting the size of their armies, there is
really no need of an international con-
ference to discuss this subject. A
land force such as is now proposed
for this country involves no possibil-
ity of aggression. Indeed, the one
thing which lies least heavily upon
the American mind today is the fear
of an attack from any source--from
the sea or from the land. Our posi-
ton is quite different from that in
the few years which preceded the
World War. The rapidity with which
we gathered our resources, the skill
and spirit with which we sent 2,0O0,-
900 men to Europe, the fighting quail.
tiles they displayed-these things
gave the world an object lesson it will
not soon forget. Thus the United
States has everything to gain from
disarmament and nothing to Lose
The Worlds Work.
