Leagues P. S. to Kellogg Pact

Practically every important country in the world
has signed the Kellogg pact to outlaw war.
That is to say, every great and near great power
on earth has publicly gone record as renouncing
war "aS an instrument of national policy"
But, lot of people asking just what do these
nations propose to do? What other course will they
pursue as substitute for the war which they have
taken the pledge to foregoP
The Eighteenth amendment outlawing booze. it is
pointed out, did not abolish booze of itself even
theoretically. 1t took Volstead law to make booze
outlawry effective.
So, it is argued the Kellogg pact is sort of inter-
national constitutional amendment outawing and
needs some sort of bolStering up-f not exactly by
an enforcement law then at least by some sort of
machinery for settling disputes between nations short
of the prescribed sword.
Now the elder statesmen of the world gathered for
the League of Nations meeting at Geneva have
come Harvard with some such scheme It probably
would be stretching things to describe their plan as
the Volstead act for the enforcement of Keoggs war
outlawry but in way that is apparently what it
hopes to encourage, if not to accomplish
"a general act" we are told "has been drafted for
the world to sign, whether members of the League of
Nations not, just it signed the Kellogg treaty
Subject to certain reservations sgnatores would bind
themselves to submit their disputes to the world
court or to arbitration Cancellation commissions or
to some other special tribunal when other means of
settlement had failed"
This seems to us as a very logical move The
United States already has signed such agreement
with numerous foreign powers and plans to extend the
arrangement soon to take in all Latin America Other
countries have signed similar pactS with their neigh
bors Thus if the League of Nations can coordinate
all these agreements into universal pact to supple
ment the Kellogg treaty, it sounds like pous idea
which the United States would do well to help put
over.
Not to do would appear in rather bad grace.

Straight votes-crooked Government

Do you believe that you are capable Of
choosing your own officials and running your
own government?
The campaign managers of Robinson, Leslie
and Updike are depending for success on the
belief that majority of the voters are either
too stupid to know how to cast an intelligent
ballot or can be frightened into doing some
thing they do not wish to do.
Their appeal for support for Hoover is but
frantic effort to save themselves from the de-
Termination Of the people of this State to get
rid Of Stephensonism, Jacksonism and
aCofinism.
In the primaries, they were denouncing
Hoover in ugly words and worse charges. Now
they depend on his reputation for honesty and
sincerity and ability to carry them into power
and again rule the State and county.
They understand that the great rank and
file of the Republican, party has some very
definite desires for honesty and decency. The
primary results showed that.
The thousands who voted for Adams and
Lands for Governor were protesting against
the disgrace Of their party They were voting
AGAINST the shame of Governor at liberty by
the statute of limitations, a mayor under con-
yiction and sentence, a State chairman IN
Federal prison, county boss discredited and
exposed.
The thousands who voted for Hoover paid
a magnificent tribute to their faith in his
leadership, running almost even with the great
Watson organization which was financed with
unlimited funds and was making desperate
stand for power.
The politicians know that the same thou
sands who voted for Hoover in the spring also
voted against the gang candidates for Gov
ernor. Now they have gang candidate on the
ticket. ~@
There is every reason why every voter who
cast ballot for Hoover in the spring primaries
should vote this fall against Robinson, Leslie
and Updil1e.
The highest humiliation that could be
offered to this great American would be that
his influence and name had been used to pre-
vent Indiana from obtaining that freedom from
shame which her people desire, even though it
was exercised without his consent or with his
wish.
The one appeal is now to "vote straight and
don't lose your ballot. " The whispering women
are again busy. They are concocting stories
calculated to brighten. They are spread for
the purpose not of helping Hoover, whose vic
tory in this State is fully assured, but to
brighten timid and jealous persons into the
belief that if they attempt to scratch their
tickets they may lose their entire vote.
There should be clubs in every precinct to
teach the simple method of casting a ballot
which will be certain of count and register the
will Of the voter.
In cities where machines are used, it is a
mere matter Of pulling levers.
In communities where the printed ballots
are used, the voter should keep these rules in
mind:
"Keep your pencil out of the circles at the
top of the tickets, unless you wish to vote a
straight ballot.
''Keep. your pencil in the squares and vote
for the men you want elected Vote for every
candidate"

in crooked government

Mrs. Wobble Duck was waiting for

Nectarines Favored for
MANY Roadside Stands

nectarine is a peach without the
fuzz. In Europe they have long been
popular, and in many localities of this
country they are also popular.
Perhaps one of the most favorable
outlets for nectarines will be the road
side stands, for many people object to
eating peaches on account of the
fuzz; at least they object to eating
them until they have been peeled.
This objection does not hold true with
the nectarine.
If nectarines increase in popularity.
as some of their boosters claim they
will, no doubt additional varieties of
highest quality will be available. The
number of varieties available as yet
is of course far more limited than in
the case Of peaches, and that is one
of the difficulties against which the
)ectarine must contend in any popu-
larity contest.

Varieties of Seed.
There are few new or noteworthy
varieties of vegetables for the home
gardener to consider under Colorado
conditions, McGinty says. Mary Wash
ingtOn asparagus is a rust-reSistant
variety that develops large-sized
spears. Golden-Acre is very early,
small-headed cabbage of particular
merit, while Coreless carrots are an
early, high-quality variety. Golden
Plume celery, the earliest variety
grown, is one that is readily blanched.
MignOnette lettuce, small-headed
type, has a desirable feature in its
resistance to hot weather. Although
this variety has a reddish color out
side, it is of good quality. The Lax
tonian pea is an early, wrinkle-seed-
ed, dwarf-vined variety that is highly
productive of good quality peas. A
high-Quality squash that may be baked
whole is the Des MOines, sometimes
called liable Queen" or "Acorn."
This squash is not attacked by the
squash bug. The Marglobe tomato, a
variety that natures fairly early. has
red glObe-shaped fruits that are of
high quality. A cantalOupe variety Of
much quality and promise is the Ed
wards PerfectO. 1t has an orange-cOl-
Ored flesh and small seed cavity.
Avoid Substitutions.
Farmers and gardeners who send
early for seed catalogues, make up
list of the vegetables desired, and or
der them will likely avoid variety sub
situations that are often made on late
orders.

Home Grown Dairy Feeds
Found Most Economical

1t is usually found that dairy herd
can be fed more economically where
large proportion of the feeds can be
raised on the farm where they are
consumed. In this case the value of
the feed is the market price less the
cost of marketing. The saving of this
expense of marketing is In itself
large item, says the Missouri Farmer.
Where all feeds must be purchased
and hauled distance of several
miles to the farm in addition to the
expense incurred, great inconvenience
is often experienced in getting such
work done during rush seasons and
bad weather.
Missouri is especially adapted to the
growing of corn and alfalfa and
large surplus of these crops is usually
produced. The prices of these feeds
are considerably less than on the CEN
trail markets of the East, the difference
being largely that of transportation.
AS far as these two crops, which con-
stitute a large part of dairy rations,
are concerned, milk production costs
less In Missouri than in the eastern
states.

the arguments in favor are many.
First and foremost is the fact of the
style element having entered into the
realm of furS to an unprecedented eX-
tent. That is, the days of the all
lOOk-alike fur coats are forever past.
Today the fur coat is styled with ev-
cry diversifying detail which bespeaks
the whims and caprice of fashion.
In this respect necessity has indeed
become the mother of invention" for
furriers in order to meet the keen riV-
airy of the cloth coat, which has with
the passing of the seasons become in
creasingly intriguing, have been i'm
PEELED as never before to exercise all
their ingenuity in working furs to
point of equal interest and versatility.
The smart thing about many of the
new fur coats is that they have adopt
ed fabriclike styling. This is espe-
cially true of the fashionable thin
supple furs which are handled like
cloth. That is, they are made to tie
in little bow effects at neck and
wrists. Collars are especially smart
and becoming often handled in a
"dressmaker way" also furs are
scanned together as any material
would be. Then, too, 1t adds to the
Zest of the vogue that there are so
, many heretofore unknown types now
included in the furs we wear.
No less interesting are modern cloth
treatments. Not only are fabrics
manipulated in artful seamings, in
lays. tuckings and such, but magma
ton Is given full play when 1t comes
to the positioning and designing of
the luxurious fur trims.
Two rivals are posed side by side
in the picture. Both the seal model
to the left and the fur-trimmed black
broadcloth to the right are conserva-
tive types such as appeal to the wom-
an who dresses In quiet elegance.
Canary-colored dyed ermine enlivens
the handsome seal coat. AS to the
ether model, 1t accents the smartness
of black broadcloth for the winter
wrap, also the vogue for the volumi
nous shawl collar.

Although dairy herds of low-butter

for herds of high-producing cows.
Cows, of course, will not make the
