PEANUT CULTURE
should INTEREST
Farmers IS SAID
Lindsey Notifies Growers He
VIII Buy All Delivered
to the Frisco Tracks
During Week.

Interest is growing in peanut culture,
especially in the community about viii
son, and this season approximately
eight carloads will be shipped from
that vicinity, TO say nothing of the
amount OF the crop that has been baled
and will be fed to stock.
w. +. Lindsey has notified all far
mers in that locality that he will buy
all they bring to the city and deliver
to the Frisco track this week, guaran-
teeing s12O per bushel for them. and
so far he has received notice that many
will be here with their crop.
The peanut according to the county
agent, will thrive exceptionally well in
this county, and with proper cultivation
there is not a better money crop that
could be produced.
Beats Cotton Crop
The average yield per acre this year
is small, about thirty bushels, but at
that il beats any cotton crop ever
grown. with peanuts at $1.20 per bush
el, the county agent says, and this
price too is small as compared with
the general average for years past.
Several farmers in the vicinity of
Ardmore are thinking seriously of de-
voting some Of their acres to peanuts,
as it is a far easier crop to cultivate
than cotton, and the returns for labor
and other incidentals is much greater.
Mr. Lindsey says that if farmers in
this countywcoudttake to raising pea
nuts. it would be but a few years un-
I'll this could become a great peanut
center, and in his opinion would mean
more to the commercial interest of the
city and county than all the cotton that
could be raised.

Plenty of Game for New York

While the wet weather in some
parts Of New York State hurt young
pheasants and ruffed grouse there is
promise OF an abundance of game for
gunners this fall.
The Conservation Commission takes
credit for helping the game situation
through stricter enforcement OF the
laws than ever before. It's estimate
Of the game supply is based on the
reports of automobilists and others
whose business or recreation takes
them into the woods, as well as on
the personal observations Of the game
wardens, whose ranks are now re-
cruited from among the best hunters
in their various communities.
AS in other regions thesreports in
dicate a greatly increased supply Of
water fowl, ducks in particular being
found on every lake and river of the
interior Of the State, while flocks of
unusual size have been reported in
the Adirondacks and Catskills. This
points to new breeding grounds and
to immunity from the raids of un-
scrupulous campers who In the past
often killed water fowl out Of season.
Deer have been seen along the high
ways in many regions by travellers,
while pheasants in country roads in
Livingston, Broome, Erie and other
counties in the western part of the
state have been observed so often as
to cause comment on the part Of
motorists. They are seen on the
wing or scurrying through the grass
and weeds at the roadside. the scar
let and blue heads of the cock birds
giving the heritage touch of brill
liant color.
Many woodcock have been noted in
their customary breeding haunts.
When their number Is augmented by
the flight birds Of the north, whose
migration southwark begins at the
first touch OF frost, there should be
fine sport for gunners OF the Empire
State. The season as far as wood
cock are concerned bids fair to
equal that of 1921, which was remark
able in the cunning annals of New
York, bags of from ten to twenty-five
being secured by parties in favored
localities.
Those who are fond of shooting

Spurs u. S. to Develop Cables.
Walter S. Rogers Points Out at Wiamstown How
America Lags in World Communications

Special Dispatch to THE New York HERALD.
WILLIAMSBURG, Mass. Aug. 15.-Post-
war problems other than interallied
debts were brought to the fore at the
Institute OF Politics to-day in the round
table conference en- international elec-
trical communications. under the chair
manship of Walter S. Rogers, American
delegate to the International Communi-
cations Conference in 1920
Mr.. Rogers noted number of cases
wherein the American viewpoint In post
war problems had encountered obstinate
resistance.
Not until America entered the war.
he said, did Great Britain divert the
German cable connecting the Azores
with New York. SO that it now runs into
Halifax and forms a part of the British
all red cable route to the Pacific.
The American peace ENJOYS, he con-
tinued. contended in vain that this was
a diversion and interference not alone
with German property but with the
communications route on which the
cable life Of the United States depended.
Great Britain's virtual domination Of
WORTH cHplt routes was DUiHltu out, as
well as the total lack of an independent
cable system belonging to America.
Mr.. Rogers discussed the political,
commercial and military significance of
telegraphs cables and radio and some
of the national and commercial rivalries
growing out, Of efforts to monopolize
these lines of communication. He traced
the maneuvers which long delayed the
efforts OF the Germans to utilize the
Azores as relay station for cables to
the United States.
Referring to the present interruption
to cables touching Ireland, he urged the
necessity for more cables between the
United States and the Azores as an
alternative route. freeing the United
States from dependence upon Great
Britain for cable landings. He said
while the British monopolistic con-
ccssion at the Azores has expired. the
Portuguese Government hesitates to grant
landing rights to American companies,
probably because Of influence brought TO
bear by the British cable companies.
which look asSance at the United States
gaining greater cable freedom.
I'm order to permit wide extension
OF American cable contacts every effort
should be made to increase the avail
ability of the AZORES The Azores are
ideally located for becoming great
cable center with cables radating to
various places In Europe, Africa, South
and North America. The Azores should
virtually be internationalized as a cable
center and the Powers should be obli-
gated by treaty not to seize control OF
the cables landed there, even in war
time"
He said that II the former German
cable. which before the war ran from
Einden to the United States via the
Azores and which during the war was
diverted by the British to run from
Penzance. England, to Halifax, via the
Azores. had been restored to service be-
tween Germany and the United States.

That Outrage at Needles.

That famous Kansan WILLIAM
ALLEN WHITE of the Emporia On
zette, who recently defied arrest in
his desire to help the cause of the
striking railroad shopmen, denounces
the action OF the Santa Fe train
crew that abandoned its engines and
cars in the California desert last
week. 1t was "cruel and cowardly.'
Mr.. WHITE says, and 1t "arouses the
sense of fair play in the American
people at time when only public
sentiment can keep the organized
labor men from crushing defeat"
AS the article proceeds the reader
finds himself suspecting> that Mr..
WHITE is really more chagrined over
the effect of the brutal deed on the
strike than grieved over the fate Of
the 125 passengers who were left TO
fry under the desert sun at Needles.
"The men who left those people
to swelter and suffer out there on
the desert were, OF course. cowardH
and ruthless But cowardice and
cruelty may be forgiven. However.
such blatant folly, such hare Drained,
lame wtted stupidity never will be
forgiven"
If we are to take the distinguished
Mr. WHITES words in earnest he
can forgive the train crew that left
aged men and women to stifle in a
temperature OF 130 degrees. He can
forgive them for leaving a mother
to fight three days and nights for
the life of her baby.
But he cannot forgive them for
committing an outrage which has
reacted so badly against the strike
in general.
1t is sad to see one of the great
men of his State, man once called
the Conscience of Kansas, grieving
not so much over the crime itself as
over the exposure and results of the
crime.
Fortunately the public has one
track mind on the matter Of these
deserters.. 1t hates and despises them
because they betrayed a trust-the
trust that was reposed inWhem by
the old men and the old women and
the parents of the tortured baby and
the other passengers who were aban-
doned in the desert.

Italian Governments Strength.

A cable message from Rome say
ing that decree had been issued
Furnishing the men who took part In
the recent general strike by suspen-
sion from service and unconditional
dismissal indicates a return of the
present Government to strength and
stability. This strike was called by
the radical socialist organization for
purely political purposes and had
not the Government taken decided
and aggressive steps it might have
resulted in the sitting OF the entire
industrial and economic life of north
ern Italy.
Into this situation the whole power
of the Fascist was thrown. They
met the violence of radicalism with
violence and by strength which 1t
was scarcely believed that the or
ganization possessed they won a de-
cided victory. Not only was the
general strike ended but at the same
time radicalism received a setback
that alienated from It's ranks thou
sands of workmen. The detection
has evidently continued, for the cable
message adds that 10000 workmen
OF the port of Genoa, which was in
the past one of the socialists strong
holds, have joined the Fascisti's CO.
operative organization and that at
Sarzana, a manufacturing town near
Rome, 1000 workmen have asked for
admission to the same organization.
The Fascist labor organization Is
one of the workmen's unions which
grew up as an opponent of the radi-
cal labor unions. 1t has in a measure
been in cooperation with similar
union formed by the Catholic party.
The avowed purpose In both cases
is to remove labor from politics and
do away with the general strike as
political weapon. While the social
list element was in power Italy was a
keen sufferer from this means OF en-
forcing demands and at the height Of
the socialist rule II came to be used
for purposes Of revenge upon an en-
ployer for fancied wrongs or as a
weapon for injuring a competitor
This solution of the problem Of
the general strike Is undoubtedly due
to the activities Of the Fascist. The
same organization must also be
credited with furnishing the present

William Sloane.

The death Of WILLIAM SLOANE last
week took from New York's citizen
ship one of its younger leaders who
in his unfailing efforts for all that was
best in government and in business
had already distinguished himself
Mr.. SLOANE possessed the valuable
faculty OF visualizing not only the
end to be obtained in any enterprise
for public betterment but also the
means and methods by which that
end might be secured. His in
herent capacity for business and
finance had been brought to a fine
state of development by enlightened
exercise. This was recognized by the
numerous young men who sought
through service with the house Of
Sloane to prepare themselves for
management of their own affairs or
for executive work in large corpora
tions. The influence exerted by Mr..
SLOANE in support Of sound business
administration was felt, through the
graduates from his firm, in many sec
tions of the country.
In the difficult work OF adjusting
charity to the needs of the commu-
nifty, to relieve suffering without pro-
noting shiftlessness, Mr.. SLOANE dis
played the same broad vision and
sound sense he showed in finance and
commerce. He avoided the deaden-
ing effects of institutionalism on the
one hand while keeping clear of
mawkish sentimentality on the other.
In him the obligation OF human
brotherhood was never obscured, but
his fulfillment of that obligation was
accomplished with precision of judg-
ment and clarity Of knowledge that
made his generosity twice effective.
A sterling character and upstand-
ing man passed in the death of
WILLIAM SLOANE.

They Were Drummer Boys.

Each annual encampment of the
Grand Army of the Republic brings
its crop Of aspirants for the honor
of being the youngest surviving
veteran of the civil war. 1t is one
OF those competitions that are never
settled to the satisfaction Of every
body Always there are doubts and
possible inaccuracies.
WARREN ID. SECOND of New Ro-
chelle, ~ years old, has forwarded
his claim to the local convention
bureau in Des Moines, where the ma
tional gathering of the veterans this
year is to be held in September. Mr..
SECOND was born in June, 1850.
There is at least one veteran who
is his junior by nearly year. That
is Major-General JouN l.. GLEN.

gust 10, 1851. THE drummer boy Of
Chickamauga" tried to enlist when
President LINCOLN issued his call for
the $4,000. He was then only 10
years old and was not accepted. A
year later he hid himself in bag
gage car bound for the mobilization
camp at Covington, Kentucky, and
succeeded in attaching himself to the
Twenty-second Michigan. He was
made a sergeant after the battle of
Chickamauga, the youngest non-com-
missioned officer who ever served In
the armies of the United States.
Fifteen-year-oid boys were plenti-
full in the ranks of 1861, and most
OF the men who served in the civil
war were 25 or younger when the
end came in 1865. Probably there
were few who insisted on fighting
while as young as JOHNNY GLEN. II

1t is the British policy, Mr.. Rogers

Mr.. Rogers read a letter from the
