That is a small matter, though Germany can ill afford the loss of those half-dozen vessels in an already depleted merchant marine. 5ut China is expected to proceed to the seizure of all German possessions in China, except purely pri vate property.

More important than that is the possibility of the allies drawing at will on the limitless labor supply of a
mk for ! nation of 400.000,000 people. This is the thins that
the Teutonic powers have most to fear. It is sai'l that more than 100,'füO skilled laborers and coolies have already heen transported from China to I'urope. They are Kind to ao because they earn good wages. With the active cooperation of the Chinese government, working as an ally of the entente powers, millions might le sen. The decisive factor of the war, so long as the food supply is assured, is "man power." The allies already have a bis- superiority in this respect. France and Great Britain have sent nearly all their available men to the front, but millions more may be released for .the lighting if their places can be taken in the factories and on the farms. Thus every Chinaman sent to Knropc to work may mean another soldier bearing arm against Germany and Austria. While the British control the sea, they may be imported to any extent desired. If sea passage should become too perilous, it would be possible to send hundreds of thousands of Chinese over the trans-Siberian railway to Russia. If necessary, they could be drafted into the Russian army. If the allies were unable to win the war otherwise, no doubt they would call upon both Japan and China for military aid. Tims China's hostility means another menace to the central powers, vague as yet. but full of dread. They will soon have three-fourths of mankind lighting against them. And after the war they must expect the lasting unfriendliness of si race that is slow to forget.

WHILE WAR THREATENS. While war threaten-, and we are straining every nerve tu meet every situation, to understand it, and if lieed be to be ready to liht, let us remember; 1. Let us remember that during a period in which v hae lost two hundred lives at sea incident to the war, we have had twenty thousand citizens murdered in this coutiby. some of them this last year beini; burnid at the stake. Sine this war betran, we have lost a half million more citizens from death by preventable cau.-cs than (iermany lias kt by this war. Let this appallinq fact be learned by heart. Let us also reniemher that the safest job any man lias had since we berame a republic was to tiht a foreign fue. In our three foreign wars, all (if which we be-Mn. we lost by forf-in bullets fewer than fifteen thousand men in all of them combined. To be a I: reman, polb enian, miner, sailor, bridge "builder or worker on a skyscraper has been a far more il.in-'erous joh than to protect Americans from foreign rtillets. I.-st we folget; tiier are other things that are a Menace to the American people besides war. There ire real dangers not the l-a:-t it foreign to ourselves. but then, mankind always was so accustomed to the cm monplace.

Watch and see if in i:M, regardless of what happens in t lie meantime; see if Koosevelt. etc., :tre not roaring about the country condemning all kind f "entangling alliances". The League to Lnfoiee ;eace might as well liave Veen the subject chosen as the "American Nationalization a. Foreiun Alliances" that was taken, and the reason is obiuus. Lx-l'res t Taft is at the head of the League to Lnforce Peace movement, and I'res't Wilson very much c.n-erned in the advancement of that 3noement. "ertainly. then, il mut be all bad.

LET THE LORD DECIDE. The Kerlin newspapers, naturally desirous of the effect upon Germans in America, are publishing stuff like this: "The American people are war mad. It must be made clear that America is the aggressor as soon as she sends her guns asainst our L'-boats." Xo. the American people are rather peace hungry than war mad. With our viewpoint on modern warfare, we surely want none of it. Xor are we sending any guns against l'-boats. We are simply arming our peaceful merchantships to deal with l'-boats sent against them. It will he very easy for Germany to avoid trouble with us "war mad" folks by her keeping her l'-boats away from our ships. We hope she'll do this, but If she does not, we will surely become a bit "war mad." Once "war mad," we are pretty savage. We've put up with murder, robbery and insult and only kicked out diplomat.s of one size or another, and even under present conditions our relations with (Iermany can be peaceful. Ilut let her not attack our ships! We'll leave decision as to who is the aggressor up to the Lord.
NO DEADLOCK. ThV Cnited States lias enough troubles already without being subjected to the confusion and danger that would result from a deadlock in the house of representatives. There are Ülä republicans and 1'15 democrats in the house, with half a dozen independents. Suggestions that the two big parties combine and organize the house on a non-partisan or bipartisan basis have been treated with disdain. It would be easy fur a few members to hold up organization indefinitely. It need surprise no one if, when the members assemble in April, they should be unable to get down to business. There was a deadlock in IS.". Conuress met on Dec. 1 and did not succeed in electing a speaker until Feb. 2. Again in lSäT congress was deadlocked from Pec. 7 until Feb. i. on both occasions the government was paralyzed.
This is a more critical year than either IS.".:, or IS.'.?, i
itlea of "American Nationalization" J The country doesn't want the government paralyzed
for a single week or a single day. It is the duty of the gentlemen who control congress to see that no paralysis
would be to ';n ahead and build up a fighting machine, in comparison with which Germany's would be as a iarf. and then, instead of having "foieign alliances" t" i. folic peace, put some egotistical ass of the Koosevelt3?eeridge school at the head of the government, to tiot around with a chip on his shoulder, dating the 3 t of the woibl to knock it oli".

i:n(.lam s roon supply. (Dayton. O., News.) England keeps a pretty fair food suj)ply on hand rt all times. She could therefore exist for a considerable period without importing anything. Put this "considerable period" Is so much shorter than we usually think of when discussing the starving of a nation, that it is no wonder England becomes alarmed when a blockade of her shores is mentioned. The truth is, England imports 90 percent of her foodstuffs. She depends upon the island itself for only lo percent. So it doesn't "just happen" that her merchant marine embraces 16,000 ships, and that he has built up the biggest navy in the world just to assure her shinr the use of the seas. Any other course would have been suicidal; Great Britain would have bc ?n taking too many chances to h tve had it otherwise. As for iron and coal. England can get along very well. In fact she produces more coal than she consumes, and she has iron mines that furnish her vast quantities of that mineral. Put the things she eats and the things she wears they must be brought to her from over the seas. The facilitie for handling sea trafTic have been perfected in England as in no other country. Her great docks, miles and miles of them: her tine machinery for loading and unloading ships; her improved harbors, holding the ships of the world these things have been perfected to a greater degree than is true of any other nation. And the forts defending these works, ami the guns and mines and submarines that protect the harbors thee also are great constructions that leave no doubt tn the mind of the observer that, come what may, England is going to take care of her 4o.000.ooo people who reside upon the i1and.
THE MEL TING POT COME! TAKE POTLUCK WITH US.
In the northeastern I'nited State and along the south Atlantic seaboard, the Irish Cobbler. Early Petoskey. or Early Standard, all of which are practically identical, may be expected to produce larger crops and be more generally satisfactory for an early crop than the others mentioned. Quick Lunch and NewQueen would be regarded as second choices for this section. In the south central and southwestern states, the Triumph may be expected to give results equal to or even better than the Irish Cobbler. In the middle west, the Early Ohio should do well. while the Early Harvest and Early Hose may be regarded as second choices. Late Varieties. In the Xew England states. Long
; Island, and northern New York, the
Green Mountain, Gold Coin, Dela

class do best. In northern Michigan. "Wisconsin and Minnesota, the late varieties named above do about as well as the Rural New Yorker Xo. 2, and are superior to it in table quality. In western New York, southern Michigan and Wisconsin, and Iowa, the Iiural New Yorker No. 2. Sir Walter Kaleigh and Carmen No. 3, arc the best adapted varieties, and divide honors with the Green Mountain in the northern portions of these states. Throughout Maryland. Yirginia and the Carolinas, Tennessee and Georgia, the variety known as McCormick is quite generally grown as a late variety. In a favorable season the Green Mountain can also be grown. Want to Plant Potatoes. The date of planting necessarily must be governed by climatic conditions. In attempting to produce .'if early a crop as possible, some risk must always be incurred of the plants being injured by late spring frosts. As a general proposition, it is best to plant potatoes as soon as there is little likelihood of killing frosts after the plants are up and the ground is in condition to work. The following dates of planting for various cities should be regarded only as the approximate time at which early potatoes might safely he planted: March 10 25, Washington, Baltimore. Philadelphia, Cincinnati. Louisville. Ft. Louis. March 25 April 5, New York, Indianapolis. Detroit, Chicago. April 5 15, Koston, Albany. Rochester, etc. In the northern cities late, varieties should be planted from three to four weeks later. Plant the small eye cuttings from 1 1-2 to 3 inches deep, depending upon the character of the soil the lighter the soil the greater the depth of planting. Larger sets may be planted four inches deep. If an early variety is planted, and the work is to be done by hand, the rows may be spaced as close as 26 inches, whereas if cultivation is to
be done with a horse, 30 to 3 4 inches
usually is allowed. If a late variety i planted, the spacing should be greater, say 3 4 to 3fJ inches between the rows and 12 to 14 Inches between the plants in the row. The closeness of planting should be determined first by the variety, and second by the amount of available plant food and moisture in the soil, or that can be applied to it. Yield to le Eeetctl. Potato yields vary so greatly that only an approximate estimate can be given. If an early variety is grown, it is not tot much to expect 12 to 15 bushels from a plot of ground 50 by 100 feet. Under favorable conditions this amount may be very considerably exceeded. In the case of a late variety, larger yields may be expected.
Tinnu: ahi: nicks i yol k r.nc.i:. The razor is an instrument of artistry and grace, Whose purpose is to beautify the rough and bushy face. Its hard and unrelenting edge, miraculously thin. Curtails the throngs of whiskers which adorn the fertile chin. And beautifies the citizen, that no rubescent shame May blush upon the gentle cheek of her who bears his name. The honest razor cannot work its destiny alone. Success is all conditioned on communion with the hone. Unless its edge is carefully and frequently refined. Its practical significance is quickly undermined. And though its metal be as hard and faithful as the deuoe. The blade becomes a stranger to utility and use. I have no doubt that you, my friend, may very justly feet That you're a man of quality as tine as razor steel.

ANNUAL SPRING lOI3I. When the homing robin perches in the branches of the birches; when the balmy zephyr searches for the snow drop's thrusting bud. When the snowdrift waxes leaner and the grass is growing greener, and the brooklet's voice is keener as it ripples through the mud. Then it is you murmur gaily, ".See the tender shoots spring palely further through the greensward daily. Spring is throbbing in the air; From the Southland she is stealing, all her radiance revealing, and it's time that I was peeling off that flannel underwear." f'o next morning when you vaken the thick woollen husk is shaken, but. alas, how much mistaken was your guess about the Spring; For the howling winds are blowing and the snDw is thickly snowing, and abruptly southward going is the robin on the wing. With the chill and chilling breezes come the grip and like diseases, and you fill the air with sneezes, sniff and snuffle, gasp and cough. And too late you see too plainly that Spring won't behave humanely and regret, alas, quite vainly that you ever took 'em off. But next year when Springtide weather bursts eld Winter's icy tether, when the robins sing together in the newly greening boughs. When the frogs and toads and lizards risk their tender little gizzards and defy belated blizzards as they frolic and carouse. Once again, with fatuous folly, you will tell your wife, "By golly! I'll just shuck these flannels, Molly, for they scratch and chafe and burn." And once more the Spring will fill you full of microbes that will chill you, if, indeed, they do not kill you; for us mortals never learn.

ONCE-OVERS DON'T WIlITi: ANYTHING YOU WOPLDN'T SAY IWCi: TO FACE. Man. when you wrote that letter to your brother last night, did you give it thought how it might look to your grandson, 6 0 years hence if he should happen to see it? Stranger things than that have happened. The letters people keep are not always the ones we would care to have represent us one hundred years hence. You are trying to impress on your children the beauty of brotherly love and affection. Yet you gave your brother a stab that you intended to hurt. All because he does not see things as you see them. Ileally, now, what does it matter.in comparison to his friendship? To be brothers should necessarily mean "friends." Too bad that it often means the bitterest enemie. The things you say to your brother are all the meaner because you know so well where to strike. You say "you will let him alone if lie will let you alone." Better say that you will let him do the dirty work if there i any to be said and done. If not for your own sake, for your son's future respect.
INSHOOTS .
Hate yourself and other fellows will follow suit. Worry has never been known to lift even a feather. It is a waste of energy to put a course dinner before a coarse diner. No man can ever advance unless he is working under the right kind of a boss. A man can have his hands manicured once in a while without being really civilized. The man who is never heard of save through a fool election bet is of no particular value to the nation. Because a widow says that she will never marry again is no sign that she is not equipped with a lasso. If you do not realize what a fool you are, you can at least understand what a fool the oth(r fellow Is. In many instances of reform it would be better if the embalmer could work in conjunction with the reformer. It is apparent that many of the poets who saddle Pegasus ought to be Imprisoned for cruelty to animals. The optimistic man is never quite as enthusiastic after he has endeavored to touch a few friends far a loan. No matter how she looks, a woman always feels the difference between a and .

WITH OTHER EDITORS THAN OURS
Tin: ciii:mist. t (Memphis News Scimitar. j Hitherto the world has looked up- , on the chemist as a mysterious b- 1 ing, who concealed himself and carried on his experiments in a secret laboratory. He was supposed to con- ; ce: :i himself with trying to discover , the elixir of life, a method of trans- j muting the baser metals into gold. ' or in making poisonous gases to bo i used in wartime. The war La ! brought the chemist to the front, j and we now see that his efforts arc f utilitarian and necessary, and that he is making a very larce f.ci:re in i the activities of the world. The chemists of Kurope havo tnk- ' en up many substances that wcie; supposed to be valueless, and er-.- I verted them into wholesome and I nourishing food for the people. They ; have taken up standard articles of!
food, anil by processing them and commingling them they have Increased the food supply, and in this way benefited their countrymen. In this country our chemists and scientists have been busy for a long time discovering new processes of manipulating iron and steel. They have made it possible to piie uT enormous fortunes by the advantage they provide!, and which other nations did not possess. The great oil companies have been employing high-class chemists, and a vast number of by-products that are on the market, and which are derived originally from crude petroluem. are convincing evidence of tlie fact that they have covered a large field and brought in valuable and profitable fruits Among ourselves we have seen what has been done with the onto
despised cottonseed. which is now ' being used in so many ways that j only the possessor of a catalogue can obtain a fairly accurate idea, j Any number of southern products ; have been taken in hand by tho j chemists and commercial products j of great value are being extracted i from them that were not dreamed of a few years ago. ! One of the greatest achievements ! of our American chemists is the dis- ! covery of a method of making what j is called synthetic silk out of wood 1 pulp. About 20.000.000 pounds of J this silk is being manufactured an- j nually, and while Fram e is entitled to the credit for the discovery and : is a pioneer in the industry. our j chemists are also giving the matter 1 consideration. We have always looked to the silk worm and to the orient j for our supply, but under the now i system a fabric can be manufactured i that is equal to anything from the east, and at a price that brings it j
within the reach of everyone. Of course, our chemists have made wonderful discoveries and development in the matter of producing dvestuffs since the beginning of
the European war in 1014. They j
have made this country, in a largo measure, independent of Kuropo for coloring matter, and the end is not yet. Chemistry has been a great sc irn"p time cut of mind, but laymen knew bui very little about it, because it was supposed to belong to the mysterious upper ranges of thought sind Investigation. It challenges the ho-i thought of the world at the present time, but it has been brought down to where its ends are practical and useful. What the chemists will do for the world in the near future not even the most d siring will hazard si conjecture.
