TO the entente cordiale between Eng
land and France, a complete violation
of all pledges for common action. From
that moment the Turks organized their
armed strength and saw a supreme
chance for undoing the defeat OF the
great war by this disunion between
victors. Bouillon's action was favored
in all French circles. Jealous OF old
England's prestige in the East, an
gered by England's generosity to Ger

Mediterranean. From that political
split have followed all subsequent hap
penings Of tragedy and danger, which
the French themselves now realize.
But though Bouillon played with fire,
this good natured, laughing. tallxative
fellow must have credit for having
used his influence with Kemal on the
side Of peace when one rash shot on

Nevertheless the British people rea-
lie that there are obligations toward
Christian minorities threatened by ex-
termination by Moslem fanaticism, and
at all costs. whether of blood or treas

their slaughter. England is sound at
heart, whatever her enemies may say
and has a tradition which she Will not
forfeit now OF being the protector OF
defenseless peoples. But alone she has
not the power TO enforce her will and
safeguard all those Christian minori-
ties whose positions are so perilous in
spite OF tho great assurances OF the
Greek surrender. The immense and
sacred responsibility lies upon France
to cooperate in this protection.

But the Turk was coming back

Our wheat average to the acre in
1891 was only 1873 bushels, In 1896 124
bushels. and In 1914 only 1876 bushels.
Corn average per acre In 1856 was

Nor might any one get around the
distressing Significance of these facts
by suggesting bad crop years. The
figures here given are actually rep
resentative and involve that brilliant
era in American agriculture Of the last
century. when the homeseeker sung
with glad acclaim that Uncle Sam
was rich enough to give us all a
farm"
That was a trek" which perhaps
was unequaled in history. Across the
prairies and through the valleys whole
families, sometimes entire neighbor-
hoods, took to the westward trails.
Ruts were worn deeply in unsurveyed
highways that led to the new FL
Dorado, where the golden grain wealth
of the apparently boundless new home
lands awaited the settler. The Govern
ment opened its treasure store Of land
titles and virtually gave away the
homesteads.
Tens of thousands from each East
ern State, literally millions of foreign
birth--all, indeed, who wished for a
home site from which to mine the
grain gold which Nature had deposited
in the soils. might get what he wanted
from liberal Government. Regions
of 10000 square miles, practically
every rood of which might be culti-
waited as a rose garden. were occupied
almost over night. Territories sprang
quickly into Statehood. Cities arose
in moons cycle. Indians were pressed
backward from their land heritage.
Society was organized with a celebrity
never before equaled. with law and
order supreme-for this trek of the
grain gold miners was not by Wild
disorderly elements. It was Of the best

foodstuffs production opened up In ten
years. Then. In the next ten years,
$4,000 more were opened, an increase
of the 80 per cent. up to 1870.
But 1t was In the decade from 1870
TO 1880 that the most brilliant Western
conquest took place, when in that ten
years 1.349.000 new farms We're added,
or almost exactly 80 per cent. increase.
OF sudden, the rate of increase OF
farms began to decline. In the ten
years after 1880, the increase was only
IA per cent; in the next ten years It
was 20 per cent. in the following dec
ade it was 10 per cent, and that car
ried us up TO 1910.
But then the bottom dropped out.
For this country opened up only S.

increase Of Ia per cent.
Read the figures another way. lest
some fear that It be a case OF figures
cannot lie, but liars can figure" Uncle
Samuel increased the number of his
farms throughout all Of these decades; ;
but at the same time he decreased the
average number of acres which he
maintained in each farm; so that,
whereas in 1850 1t was 210, IN 1920 the
average farm had IN It only 140 acres.
That would have been fine had our
Uncle Samuel, while reducing the area
of each average farm. increased the
quantity Of foodstuffs taken from each
average acre. But he did not. AS
already shown the per acre foodstuffs
harvested remained practically the
same as in the early years.

discarded every lesson of hlstory-a
history which teemed with wars fought
in Europe over the scramble to fill the
national bread baskets. In other
words, these immigrants justified the
acid irony of some one who wrote that

history Is that no one ever learned any
thing from history"
