Englishman Rises from Ploaghboy to Parliament (By Associated Press) LONDON, March 12. From ploughboy to member of parliament, was the remarkable rise of Joseph Arch, who recently died at the age of 92. He was a unique figure in English parliamentary life, being in 1885 the sole workingnian member of the house of commons. At that time there was no kind of labor party in existence here. Mr. Arch achieved fame as the champion of the English farm laborer, when the tiller of the soil reared his family on a wage of $2 a week, subsisted chiefly on barley bread and hardly knew the taste of tea or sugar. In 1872 he enrolled 200 farm laborers in an organization that came to be known as the National Agricultural Laborers' Union, whose leaders the Rishnn nf Tinrinn xinntfd tn dunk In

a horsepond. "Adult baptism," Mr. j

Arch replied to the bishop s statement, "is not the rule of the Church of England." Mr. Arch is credited with having dane more than any other man to Improve the condition of England's peasantry. He was popular in parliament. One of his constituents was the Prince of Wales, afterward King Edward. He referred to Mr. Arch as "my member." Mr. Arch was also a Primitive Methodist preacher. He was fond of his pipe and an occasional glass of ale.

American Shipping Must Solve Food Problem for Europe, Says Englishman (By Associated Press LONDON, March 14. Commenting upon Secretary of State Robert Lansing's address at Paris on Tuesday night, in which a plea was made for supplying Germany with food, the Chronicle says: -"The crucial difficulty is tonnage, and the only way of quickly expanding the available tonnage is for the United States to restore to inter-allled use American shipping which Bhe withdrew last autumn. We especially welcome Mr. Lansing's speech because it ought to mean, if it means anything, that a substantial part of this tonnage which went to the South American trade, will once more be at the service of starving Europe."

French Press Welcomes Return of President

(By Associated Press) PARIS, March 14. The return of President Wilson is welcomed by the morning newspapers in editorials. The Journal says that it means early and positive results from the peace conference. The editorial writers also are occupied with the present state of public opinion in America. The Figaro says that the United States, by sharing in the war and by the prominent role It is playing at the peace conference, has become one of the principal factors in European and world policies, but it adds: "But will the United States desire to be of the same mind, once the treaty of peace is signed? Will it not rather yield and go home for good, leaving old Europe to work out its salvation by itself? The sudden withdrawal of the United States would have regrettable consequences because there are several problems, which we th British, Italians and French, would settle in quite a different way than if America was a factor. So far as can be judged, however, it does not seem that such an eventuality is to be feared."

You won't upset at corners or pitch forward when you use the Janesville Frameless Sulky Plow. The Janesville has a wide truck, and because the rear wheel has a rod connected with the front clevis and h'.tch the plow pivots around a corner without even a tendency to upset. It handles just like a three-wheel tricycle. It just naturally follows the horses. The seat has an extra long spring, which allows the driver to sit far back over the turning furrow in a comfortable position and does away entirely with that pitching-forward feeling. All the levers are within handy reach, which, coupled with the long, easy, augur twist of the moldboard, provide good work with comfort. A handy lever beside the seat angles the front furrow wheel in any position. Another lever, equally as handy, raises and lowers the depth of the plow. The land wheel lever levels tha plow, and it, like the other levers, being spring balanced, can be operated with little or no effort.
