chokes which grow wild I'm most
parts of the United States. The
Bureau OF Standards has found a
way Of getting graduated sugar
from them. a sugar which is twice
as sweet as the granulated sugar
used in the home today.
Senator Howell is interested in de
veloping this new crop, and he
wanted to show his friends that the
Jerusalem artichoke was good as a
vegetable too.
They had PURGE of artichokes for
the soup course. creamed artichokes
with the meat course; picked
artichokes and artichoke salad. Then
when the coffee was served with the
dessert, it was sweetened with
gr%anulated sugar made from
artichokes.

Immediately after the verdict eX-

holding that he had shot the three
men in self defense. Prosecuting At
torney y. G.. Craig filed charge OF
felonious assault and possession of
liquor against Postmaster Neal, who
is near death as a result of being
shot through the stomach by Flet-
cher, who used shot gun.
Liquor Is Found.
\ raid on the Neal home by the
sheriff of Wright county disclosed
d quantity of moonshine liquor.
The feud between the Neal and
Fletcher families has been one of
long sanding. and was given added
impetus recently when Fletcher had
one of the Meals arrested for dis
turbinS the peace. resulting in con-
viction.
Friday. according to officers, Flet-
cher was walking down the main
street of Astoria, village near
here. when a member of the Neal

an argument which led to tussle
between the two men. While the
two were graphing with each other,

that a price is not made that il is not
justified by the facts was made pub
lie last night by George y. Peek,
chairman of the executive committee
of the North Central States Agricui-
tural Conference.
1T "as Interesting and most agree
able to me- Mr.. Baruchs letter, dated
June II. said, Ito learn that approval
had been given by such an important
economist as Sir Josiah Stamp to the
efforts of the agricultural interests TO
take care of their surplus through use
O. an equalization fee. AS you know.
this has met my heartiest support
since the matter was first hroached
some two years ago.
Whereas the tariff and the rail
road rates affect agricultural inter
estS seriously. it is to the credit of
the farming element that they have
not endeavored 10 pull either of those
down, but rather they have tried to
raise themselves up to the level of
the railroads and the protected in
dustries. In order to do this they are
assessing themselves for any loss that
may be incurred in selling the surplus
outside of the country. This is the
farmers means. and a proper one
to take advantage of the tariff, which
is fact and not a theory.
This is an economic and not
political question"
Replying, Mr.. Peek asserted that
''now that the soundness of the eco
nomics of the solution proposed ap-
pears TO have been effectively estab-
lished, it seems to me it would be

resenting both parties to dismiss par

The North Pole

Once the North Pole. stark and
dreary, was unseen by eyes of man,
Cill there came the dauntless Peary
with his little caravan. Through the
dim. uncourted ages it was standing
i'm its place. and grim death became
the wages of the men who sought its
base There we're scores of brave eX-
plorcrs who would nail upon it signs
advertising hair restorers nd some
other standard lines. But the Pole
was in a region that was mighty hard
to reach: there were perils by the le-
gion: death was Camped on every
beach. Vows to reach 1t oft were
spoken by ambitious engineers, but
the silence was unbroken for about
ten thousand years. Peary then re-
deemed his pledges, and one day, at
half-past l. he came sliding up on
sledges. and. behold, the trick was
done. He went hOmeward to Hobo
ken with a record most sublime. ami
the silence was unbroken for another
weary time. But the ancient orders
changing as fair science gains her
goal. and We see the airships ranging
all around that distant Pole. There
are busy airships flying where that
deathly silence was, with the naviga-
tors CRYING that they need more traffic
laws: for there's danger Of collisions
where so many people speed DER the
frozen subdivisions where the wild
musk-oxen feed. And the Pole may
well he injured by some crazy air
ships power when the blamed thing
has been gingered to hundred miles
an hour. If the traffic keeps increas-
ing there should be a force OF cops.
who. with vigilance unceasing, will
send up their warning yawps. Thus
the sound of modern chooing echoes
in a secret land. Science. still her
course pursuing, sees the old restric-
tions canned: she unveils the hidden
places on remote and silent shores,
opens them to eager races running
five-and-ten-cent stores.

advanced by the Socialists in the
Reichstas to precipitate the crisis cul.
rn!nating In the resignation OF the
chancellor. Philip Scheidemann, the
republican first chancellor. was spokes.
man for the accusers, and alleged that
the minister Of war IL engaged In
building up Reichswehr which Is not
representative OF the republic, but is
nationalistic IN character.
There are two fears on the part Of
the German Socialists, one Of @ revival
OF monarchisrn, and the other Of a
plan for revenge for the humiliations
and losses caused by the Great War.
The German Socialists want no more
fighting and want no monarchy. The
fact that they are strong enough to
undermine the ministry on these allie
cations Is an effective guarantee Of
peace. Thus the alleged secret rela.
tions between Germany and Russia
need cause no serious alarm In the
world on the score Of a determined
purpose to precipitate another general
conflict.
