While the delegates are meeting in Pans, seeking settlement of. hty wap. in Europe and establishing a league to make future wars impossible, out­ breaks have occured in many parts of the world, in which hundreds pf lives have been lost.

Another will also annul the one, in force a t present requiring certain legal notices-to be published in Ger­ man papers. When the .state and na­ tion require all publications in this country to use the English language then we will have made some progress towards educating the foreign element and 'compelling them ot adopt the hab­ its and customs of their adopted country. ■ * Mr. Cameron Bickett of near Xenia was in town Wednesday?topping the market with 70 head of hogs.

It Witt not eat straw or hey that has been un­ der foot It nibbles the choicest bits* Of foliage and rejects all unclearmess. Its meat, therefore, is equally fit for human food with the flesh of the sheep. Present prices of goats for the range ' a te well up to the premdiiag Acw* for sheep. m tttMUfY PROPHECY ■ Editor Oolllagwoed of Hie Rufat Hew Yorker asya: ‘‘Gasoline leaves no organic matte* behind i t "We have come to the time, and we are rapidly going further into It when there will be practically no Stable manure fo r people to buy and pu t on thehr ground. And then people will suddenly wake and realize that all these years they have been giving to stable manure a value it did not carry, and th a t with fertilizers property han­ dled and with cover crop*, they will be able, to g e t the same results with lees labor, with more profit and with fa r greater satisfaction.” OUR DWINDLING! H EA T SUPPLY Yon have no doubt become accus­ tomed to meatless days, but secretly you are probably waiting and hoping for the day when you can again eat. a good steak without feeling unpa­ triotic. , But do yon realize that the average meat supply per individual, eyen be­ fore the war, had fallen off nearly one> fourth since 19007 ‘'To be sure, each of ns had nearly aa much.meat to eat in 1917 as In 1900, but this was se­ cured a t tbe expense of otlr European neighbors. Our exports practically ceased; we had no surplus left tobend abroad. But the question Is, “Toward what are we headed?” Shall we have to continue to reduce our meat ration un­ til eventually \ye come to the plan of cereal—eating ’ China? This to the natural trend in every highly populat­ ed country.. Where people, and-live stock mast compete for the same grain, live stock is pretty apt to. get left. But there is no real need fo r perma­ nent meat shortage in America. Our farm and particularly oar pastures are not producing anything like full ca­ pacity. Following the close of the.war fertilizer will undoubtedly be used more extensively than ever before to boost live stock production. Many, live stock farms could actually double their carrying Capacity by making use of commercial fertilizer. “Fertilizer to Keep More Live Stock,1*bids fair to be a popular slogan on tbe American live-stock farm. T H E IRISH POTATO T H E FOOD O F T H E P EO P LE The Irish potato la a staple of American diet, Enough potatoeswere consumed In the United States In l9 l5 to allow one eight-ounce potato a day throughout the whole year for each man, woman and child. Truly, the potato la the food of the people. The portion of the American meal made np by this Vegetable, alone, consumes over 800,000,000 bmhela an­ nually. Intensive methods make it possible to grow cropf y!eldirig,from250 to 400 bushels per acre, and at the same time to decrease the cost of raising each bushel. The big expense In potato growing comes in the preparation of the land, the purchase of the seed and the attention given the crop ,through- oat the season. But it costs no more to prepare ground, plant, cultivate and spray a SOO-bushel crop than It does, a 150-bushel crop. Harvesting will cost more, but the big overhead expenses are practically the same. Obviously the thing to do Is to Insure large yields by supplying an abundance of available plant food that will give the crop a good sta rt and force it to early maturity. Fertilizers should be applied a t the time ot planting, and in order to make certain that this material may be on hand when needed i t ta especially im­ portant to order early this yean The man who has his fertiliser stored, in his own barn is the*only one who can be certain of a supply when seeded, A big potato crop will be needed next year whether peace comes o r not. WHY FOOD PRICES AR E IN­ CREASING “Daring the last fifty or seventy-five years (principally since 1840)* while the large dtlea in this country and Europe have been growing, the estab­ lished agricultural areas th a t produced food were supplemented by the open* tog up of new lands to the middle West, Canada, Brazil, Argentina* South and Central Africa* Australia and Si­ beria. “Food products, chiefly grains and meats, were produced bn virgin, un­ fertilized lands. Emigrant labor waa employed and subsequently there was cheap railroad and steamship transpor­ tation, so nnill recently the people in cities have been fed on food produced and sold a t a price which did not take into consideration the cost of produc­ tion and the value of plant food con­ tained in crops which must be returned to the soil to maintain productivity.*’— Report of the Food Problem Commit­ tee, Hie Merchants’ Association of New York.

Italy has suffered a loss of 21 per cent of horses, 18 per cent for mules, and 8 per ceiit for swine. No one can even guess what the decrease In Germany, Austria, and Russia has been, t u t i t must be enormous, .According to a to­ llable estimate the decrease of live stock to all Europe is equal to one^alf the amount of lire stock to America today.
