. TAX LOLE LAND INTO USEFULNESS. The enUm-nt. if it may !. ralle.i that, is growing; a fe.v more iriM-tieatior.s like th.at of thi: federal int!utrial relations cornmi.sMon, and i'. will he rr osnized as a real economic Jvsue. This war s l iinin to light a number of things. This c"'nmi' siun, for in.-tanc e. reports tht "-,10,000 farnu-rs are strulir. for a bare existence on farms of than fifty a eres", while fifty thousand owners 0f lar." tracts have fur-tifths of their area Idle. Some of our ronKre.-men are now urging that a special tax he laid on unused farm land, f rr the double purpose f raiin war revenue and forcinar the land into cultivation. Few t itizens have any idea of the enormous area that would be susceptible to such a tax. The census department reports that only three-fifths our farm land is improved. That leaves some three hundred and nfty million acres idle fifteen or twer.ty acres per t.amilj. Plainly, if all that land were cultivated, or anywhere near it, our food problem would vanish mask ally. Mnz.and faced a similar situation a few years a?o. Tiie great landed estates of the nobility paid small taxes and kept large tracts of kooiI bind unproductive. Lloyd(Jeoro taxed thm so heavily that h" raised the government revenue, e'-uHized tax burdens, forced the brakin? up of many estates into farms, and increased the agricultural output. We ould do the same thing on a far larger scale, and though it isn't likely that any such action wili he tnken immediately, the tendency is in that direction. The public is cnniinp to see the folly, from th standpoint of the common welfare, of letting speculators hold land out of use in either country or city, and reaping for their own benefit the increased value put into that land hy the community's growth and progress. The taxation of thi-i unearned inclement is jzoinir to be an Issue Mime dny anil this war is not stuinc off the day.

ALIENS THAT NEED AMERICANIZING. We are indeed a "melting pot". Unexpected numbers, enjoy our opportunities and privilege. smincly without caring fr our citizenship or Its duties. The army registration hax revealed an alarming proportion of aliens in our population. In many communities the aliens of military as?e are found to be a.s much as onefifth of the total. What is to be done with these newcomers who. by iitue of their failure to qualify for American citizenship, are in the full sen-e of the word, "foreigners".' And with their families? The military problem they present i.i difficult, but

not impossible. .Many of the aliens w ill volunteer to J

fisht in our armies, though they are under no legal obligation. Anl many of tP.eri will W particularly vel-

come because they have had military training before they came. Many, too. being subject or citizens of countries with whom we are allied, will he recruited for their armies, an 1 will therefore sere the United .Statei as well, perhaps, as if they were fighting under our Flaj. P.ut great numbers of them will not be rendered serviceable at all for war purpose?. And all of them, together with their un-Amerkanized relatives, will he a dra on our rilc and social life at a time when we particularly need unanimity of ideals and action. Communities are waking up to this situation and trying to remedv it by educational methods. It is late, but most of our aliens are probably in a better mood than usual to welcome the gospel of Americanism. The unfortunate thing about it is that we have to take up this task at a time when our .attention is distracted bv so many vital war needs.

FIGHTING FOREST FIRES. It is time for an annual "warning. After Mies and

mc-s'juitoes tome forest llres. Thy will soon be due i

And the will come just the same a eer, with their loss of tens of millions of dollars' worth of aluable timber and their incalculable destruction of voting trees, with the subsequent denuding of the soil and

Increase of floods, unless our people art more c. ireful !

thn they have ever been. There is ample reason this ear for exceptional solicitude. The timber supply or the country is dimiuishinc at a rnt" which his beun t alarm conservationists. Now that the war is upon us, with its tiemndous demands for lumber alop. with other building material, e fry usable bit of wood assumes more value, and every bit of waste becomes more reprehensible. We shall ned the good timber thoit stands in our forests for ships-, barracks, and other vital war pur

poses, and for the ast reconstruction work that will; come p. ft er the war. And we mut spare our tr "s, too. i

because it will not be so fre and easy a wot id when this conflict is ended; competition will be keener, and every material resource will be prized more highly. The man w ho destroy s a tree now may be robbing his t hildren or grandchildren. It isn't only tbe forets. In almost every section of th country, and in the neighborhood ,,f almot ecrv city and town, there are valuable patches of timber imperilled by the smoker and tamper. If we won't take the trouble to be careful as a matter of ordinary

THREE BIG VICTORIES. Not all the battles of the day are e;ng fought with guns on the battlefield of Kurope. The peace war against disease has been going steadily forward. At a conference held recently in New York city three big victories were claimed by the American Medical association. One of these was the development of an anaesthetic that is also an antiseptic. It is expected to revolutionize medical work at the front, where it has been tried out and is now being ued with complete success. It has marvelous healing powers, and has been proved particularly goo-1 in treating wounds from liquid fire. Another victory against disease was won when an anthrax cure was found that actually cured. It is a combination of surgery and serum. A longshoreman who had contracted this disease while handling hides from South America was discharged from the hospital after two weeks. He had been cured by this new method, of a disease that had Ion bafiled the doctors. The third victory was won over IS right's disease, bj treating the blood as well as the kidneys. The ideals of democracy for which trie Uuropean wat is being fought can be enjoyed more fully and developed to a higher degree for such victories over the diseases that have warred acainst civilization.

adverse. It is a day in which to pursue routine busin s and to av oid ventures of every sort. Ie affairs have rather a threatening Kign. which is held to indicate careless wooing that may bring sad regret. It is hot an unfavorable day for weddings as Venus is in kindly aspect, making tor an average share of happiness. Mines come under a fairly promising aspect, which seems to foreshadow rise in the value of metals, rather than new discoveries. Milliners and modistes have a direction of the stars which seems to threaten uncertainty in trade and vagaries in the minds of their patrons. The sway is read a? one of strange moment to college men and women who will find new avenues of activity and maVe daring expeditions to foreign lands. Women should improve the opportunities of this day, especially

where business interests are concerned. Neptune is :r a place believed to make deceit and fraud easy. This is true particularly where large speculations are possible. Chicago has the prognostication of a scandal relating to food supplies, which will te exposed before

midsummer. From this date proprietors of summer resorts that are not fashionable should benefit, as extreme temperatures are probable, and the planets seem to presage loss fn hotels usually patronized by the wealthy. The seers prophesy that cooperation will be demanded in all relief efforts and that giving will be systematized so that loss of energy and useless waste will be averted. Musicians have the promise of unexpected benefits through public enterprise or national service. Persons whoso birthdate it is may have an active year with increase of money and business prospects, but litigation will be very unfortunate. Children born on this day probably will be extremely ambitious'and able to carry out their largest plans. Mercury is their principal ruler among the planets. (Copyright. 1917.

FRANCE'S CLAIMS. The French chamber of deputies, or national con ress, has settled all controversy regarding French war

aims by setting forth unmistakably the indispensable j conditions on which France w ould ugree to ,.iake j peace. They include four main items: ! First, the return of Alsace-Lorraine to France;

Second, the liberation of territories invaded by Germany; Third, reparation for the damage done in the invaded regions; Fourth, the creation of a league of nations for the

These are terms to which the American people, and the world in general, uin easily agree. With the possible exception of the Alsace-Lorraine claim, they represent aims which the United States :tself has explicitly approved. And it isn't likely that our government or public would offer any objection to the restoration of Fiance's lost provinces. If there were any question about the principle of the matter, owing to our disapproval of "forcible annexations." the issue might be settled by a referendum of the inhabitants of those

provinces. inere is no dou'H wnat their decision would

The plants mo.-t liable to attack from insects or garden diseases are cabbage, cucumbers and melons; tomatoes, potatoes, beans, pear, beets, onions, corn, and eggplant; other garden crops are usually immune, except that when oilier crops are badly infected the Insects are likely to eat whatever vegetables they can rind, says today's bulletin from the national emergency garden commission. The treatment of insects and dis- . . ... ... i- . .-.Ii,....

eases is simple; novices who io.io directions can do as effective wor. as the expert gardener. All that is necessary is to remember to feed poison arsenate of lead to chewing insects (potato bugs, cuf.vorms and the like) and to kill sucking insects (plant lice and tree beetles) with a contact poison like nicotine. The various fungous diseases anthracnose, leaf spot, and so on disappear before bordeaux mixture. If the disease is incurable, like wilt, pull out the plants and t-um them immediately. And remember never to plant the same crop on infected ground a second time in succession. Some garden crops withstand Al ease and are unattractive to insects. Heels, for. instance, usually do not need spraying. The leaf spot (spray on bordeaux for it) is its commonest affliction. Carrots, for instante, probably will need no spraying treatment. Celery gets the bliph: or leaf spot, a fungus trouble: hence spray with bordeaux. The disease is recognized when ray or brown spots appear on the leaves

The adjutant-general's department is the department of records, orders and correspondence of the army and the miltia. In other words, the adjutantgeneral is the combined executive and private secretary of the secretary of war and he is charged with the dissemination of all information pertaining to the command, discipline or administration of the military establishment, with the duty of recording, authenticating and com

In fact, the adjutant-general's department is the largest single department of any organization or army in the worM.

to Tin: rriiuc. To the Lditor News-Times: There has been so many untruthful rumors ar.d accusations regarding lhn fi".tal automobile accident on the night of June 12th, that

i I feel the public ought to know the true statement as to how the accident occurred. HiiTerent versions cf the accident appeared in the newspapers and some of the people may be disposed to take them as facts. I hope you v ill present the truth and enlighten the public as to the

deal.

From some of the stuff printed, ore

would be lead to believe we were a bunch of criminals who went out for the putpose of committing crime. The troth of the matter is that the owner if the tar happened into my place of business about "i minutes before closir.g time, made the remark, he had his car outside and would give the boys a r ide if they v. anted to go It was a warm night and of course thy were only pleased at the chance to go. Pretty soon I was asked to com, and I told them if they would wait until I closed up. I woub: cladly ro with tlrm. When I consented to to I did r.ot know who was of tt e party, who would go or who would not go. There was u. spirit of gord feeling and fellowship and not the least intention of any wrong doin. About w . stopped at the serv ice garage, where we procured five gallons of gasoline for which one of

, It .1 Ml. -

the men paid. The accident happened about J:10 in the morning on our way back home. Now one of the reports printed in the newspapers wa that we were in the saloon drinking' until 1 a. m. Now. how could we be in the saloon at 2 a. rn. when th accident happened at j:10 six miles in the country. Another report was that the crowd was intoxicated and therefore tee accident. The coroner's report pfainly shows that there wasn't anything taken along- fufficient to get anybody intoxicated. The captain of the Volunteers of America is trying to put all the blame on me. He also insinuates that all the men of the fatal party came out without a scratch, while

the women were killed. I possibly j ought to overlook the statements of!

a grief stricken father, but for the sake of truth the r-al fact is that two men of the- part- were badly Injured, one of whom is still under the care of a physician. For heaven's sake, why should 1 be blamed? I did not own the tar, did not arrange the party and at the last moment was asked to go and only went because I was inv itee1 to come along'.

It is horrible enough to go through j

an experience of that kind, when i the only intention was a little recre- 1 ation and wind up with th cries j and moanings of the dyinc and in- i jured. It is something that a per- i .1, . i

son win neer recover irom. i-or i

several days 1 have been unable to eat or sleep. Now what is the use of blaming anybody? Kverybody went willingly and lappily and we are all overcome " with grief. Am I to b singled out and persecuted because T happen to le in the saloon business? Trusting the put, lie will consider these fact? as th4 real

truth, as every one of my statements can be proved. I am Very respec tfully yours. PARNKY RARINTiVICH.
