By now Turkey must be suffering with enlargement of the wish-bone. Congress should remember that one of the allies of the Kaiser is D. Lay. In response to his line of talk, Mr. Balfour expects American money to talk. to acreage in foodstuffs, and there must be by far more live stock raised. Mr. Vrooman returned to Washing ton today, and it is gratifying to note that he returned with a message 1 of cheer . from the South. He believes that the people are alive to the critical situation and are going to meet it. Mr. Vrooman stresses the fact that the war is going to be one largely of food supplies. That is logical. There is no alternative for the United States but to provide the supplies. Before this country entered the strife it was optional whether. food should be ship ped the Allies. It was the concern and business of individuals, and the question of a food embargo could be The result of the engagement, or brush, as naval men might not dignify it with as august Aitle as "engager ment", in the Straits of Dover, tends to show tlat the British navy is not asleep, though its task has been a sort of monotonous one. At the same time, it is nerve straining. The navy, as big as it is, covers wide expanse and its duty, mainly, is in watchingor a sortie from the enemy. The navy must be alert at all times and as it is always expecting the sudden, it must have its' nerves keyed to high pitch. On the -other hand, the Ger man navy remains at home. It does not fear an invasion and need not keep awake through danger of an attack. It remains serenely at home. It is much like a man lurking in the dark while another waits for him in the light. The latter occupies a nerve straining position. No doubt, there is not a British naval officer but would prefer to have battle; not merely because he wants to take a more active part in the war, but because it would relieve the strain on his nerves.

May be "Ty" Cobb thinks he better not show he is so strong, because they might conscript him. Why tease Congress woman Rankin because she did not tell her age? Si lence is better than fibbing. The military correspondent of the IVos&ischei Zeitung writes that the fighting on the western front is "a competitive struggle; of strength in war materials". This admission, from We thought all the time that the such a source, would intimate ultimate story of thundering guns that came defeat for Germany; .that it will be from Cape Cod sounded fishy. impossible for the central powers to win. The reason, deducted from the wheat, and it means that the South must depend upon its own resources. Fortunately the South has ample re sources to meet the situation, but the question is to realize it in time. The farmers must appreciate the necessity of raising foodstuffs. The city man must appreciate the value of the home The call has been sounded. The man who fails to heed it is adding to the menace. NOW ADMITS IT. War-brides are no longer figures of speech in the stock market news, but real figures in the matrimonial field. Yesterday in Paris there was a mighty display of the tri-colors of France and of the tried and true col ors of America. It may be so that you can't keep a good man down, but that's powerful poor consolation for the chap who is being sat on. In celebration of his birthday an niversary it was quite fitting for "Dy namite Johnny" O'Brien, of New York, to have a blow-out. Marrying to keep from going to war is not much of a compliment to mar ried life, being as what General Sher man said about war. . Don't expect American Ambassador Fletcher to do things too rapidly in Mexico. Remember the process of Fletcherlzation is slow. "Her Golden Hair Was "Hanging Down Her Back" sings the muse. Yet sometimes it is hanging on a nail or on the back of a chair. If women will only reduce the waste these days with as much gusto as they used to reduce the waist in. days gone by the cost of living" will be made lighter. Well, here's hoping that Sir Bal four's visit to the United States may kbe as profitable to America as Sir Bal four aims for it to be beneficial to the entente.' The fact that the government may " stop whiskey makingNas the grain will be neededJorJ: ood shows that the idea - of being preserved in alcohol does not always work. statement made by the military writ er, is plain. The forces of the central powers have not as much war material as the entente and it will grow less; while the entente's increases. There was time when the output of Ger many's munition factories was largely in excess of the output of the plants of France and England, but, due to time to prepare, this has been changed, and France and Great Britain are manu facturing more munitions of war than Germany and Austria-Hungary. In addition to this, comes the full strength of the United States. And the United States is now turning out more ammunition than Germany. This may seem incredulous, but it is so. It is even more marvelous than that. The plants controlled by the United States Steel Corporation are turning out more than all German factories combined. So from this it can be seen that in a competitive contest involving war material the entente is compelled to win. Undoubtedly the war hinges on which side will have the greatest amount of munitions and foodstuffs. Then can it be doubted which side will win? How can it be, when inventory is taken? And as war is waged in rthese days, upon a plane wherein mon ster guns, that belch forth tons of iron and steel, material is the foremost fac tor. At the outset of the war the al lies suffered by lack of preparedness in the way of war material. Russia had the same experience, after the famous drive which carried the Musco vite hosts to the Carpathians, almost with free access to the plains of Hun gary. But now this deficiency has been met and the entente has plenty of war material. Not only are the British and Frencn-jplants on English soil running day and night, turning out munitions, and factories running in full blast in Russia and Italy, bui both the United States and Japan are sup plying war material. Food supplies are being obtained in the same way, while the commerce of Germany is paralyzed. . From the publicity department of one of the large accident insurance companies of America comes the fol lowing warning to automobile owners,, which is rather to the point in that the. insurance company tells what the company suffered by having to pay claims for the lives of the careless parties. It precedes the review of the claims paid with some advice for the garage as follows: "Don't run your engine In the gar age with the doors and windows clos ed. "It is death to do this. "Exhaust gases from gasoline en gines contain carbon monoxide in DANGEROUS QUANTITIES. "One-fifth of one per cent carbon monoxide in the air will produce FA TAL. RESULTS. "Not one person in one hundred knows the danger. "Spread this warning for the saving of human life."
