As late a Saturday the Japanese, according t Premier Terauchi, had not deciilec! wh.at should he done hy Japan with regard to the menace of the holsheiki and the Oerman elements who are aiding them in their rein of terror in .'ileria. While the opposition party in Japan continues its efforts to preeiit the sending of troops to Siheria, almost the entir press of the country faors Japanese intervention. Im-rexi' in Activity. With the approach of spring each day witnesses an increase in th" tiuhtiiK activity. In every theater except Ilussia, the infantry and artillery are hard at work. From th North sea to the Swiss frontier no d.i.v pass-js without numerous "patrol" encounters. which at 'times teach th" intensity almost of hatties and artillery duels of violence toit little short of the great exchanges of shells which in the last year reached the high water inarK in intensity. Prohahly the most amhitious of all the attempts hy the hellicrerents to pierce an opposing line has hcea made hy the French troops over a wide front in the Verdun sector. The attack was delivered after preparatory artillery tire lastin? 10 hours, ai cording to the Herlin war , office, hut was checked. That the fitrhtir was of a saniruinary character is indicated hy the statement that the troops came into hand to hand encounter. It is claimed oy I'.'ilin that at another point in this region the Germans penetrate 1 French positions and captured 20) prisoners, including the staff of one hattalion. At numerous points alonp til'.' , British front Field Marshal Hair's men are under heavy bomhardment" i from the (iermans. Particularly vio

lent has heen the pnundin' of th" , shells alonsr th I!ap.nin?-Camlirai I road. In the Sc. irpe valley ami: around Lens. Only or.e enemy In- !

attack was attempted. Thi

fcr urr'.d rorth of Lens and was re-pui-ed. The British wer succeful in similar maneuvers near Kpehy and Oavrclle. AmeHcsins on Alert. On the American front near TouT the Americans are ever on the ale-t and frequently open up with the:r uuns against CJrrrnan positions and compel th enemy to evacuate tri sectors under fire. Posts occupied hy snipers and listeners and nests 'if machine puns rec ently have hee i effectie'y taken care of hy th1 American su'iners. The (Jermarn.

hower. are not nermittimr the

men from oversea-s to do all th-.' shooting, for they themselves arc at times putting the Americans under an extraordinarily heavy artillery tire in which explosive bhells of larie caliher and iras missiles artused . The Toul sector apparently has heen picked by the Germans as a favorite spot upon which to expend their noxious yases. although Luneville has not been forgotten by tlu-m in this respect. Indications are not wanting from the increase in this activity on th" Austro-Italian front that the 1U3-tro-(Jermans. from their northern line intend shortly another attempt, to force their way out upon the plains and into open warfare with the Italians and the British and Frt tu h troops sent there to reinforce them. Several contim,renforming ret onnoiteringr parties h.vrt been put to flight by the Italians .i the mountain region. The Italian" themselves have successfully engineered small offensives in the region of .Monte Asalone. Likewise in Macedonia there has been :t reat increase in the military operations. Along almost all of the fronts from Lake Oehrid i eastward the lug guns of both sides are hammering away at the oppos-

j ing positions. The Germans appar

ently are still intent on totally d ;-s-troying the famous tow n of Monas -tir and wiping out the remaining remnants of its civilian population. The town has been placed under a tierce bombardment hy heavy shell and gas shells. In this attack 4 n.ore of the non-combatant population were killed. I-ihor Trouble Again. Loth Austria and Hungary agaiu are ex perienci ns, a lecurrence of lalor troiihle. Large strikes ate in progress in Uuda Pest ami Vienna, and threats of military intervention against the dissatisfied workmen have been made. German newspapers continue to cry aloud for an intensification of Germany's submarine warfare i.i consequence of the decision by the Fnited States and Great Britain to take over Holland's mercantile marine lying in American and allied ports. Whether Holland is to acquiesce in the demand of the Fnited States ami Great Britain that th. ships be voluntarily turned over i-. them has not yet heen definitely establihed, but the Netherlands government is reported to have sent a dispatch to London which it s

asserted "probably will lead satisfactory conclusion of the ping difficulty."

VTHREE i: ' KINDS

MOSCOW. Thursday. March 11. Nikolai Lenine. the ludshevik premier, and other bolshevik leaders, in urging ratification of the peace agreement with Germany, made no claim that this would insure permanent peace. Asked how long a respite might be expected. Ienino said that that was impossible to answer, as it depended on so many international movements, such as to what extent Germany may uc?eed in Fkraine and Finl ir I when Japan makes an advance, and aNo on the general course of the war on the other fronts and tin Russian domestic situation. The Moscow sn irt has decided to disorganize a local soviet army. As the peace terms necessitate th demobilization of the new Bed armv and the Red guards the bolshevik leaders are seeking a plan for the organization of a new army. The Germans, it is declared, will not hinder this movement, and it seems likelr that hereafter defense will he effected through local soviet armies. The social revolutionary party organization lias issued a mandate to withdraw its six members from the cabinet, but pledging support to th belshevik government in all its activities which the party may regard as being in consonance with the victory gained by the October revolution. M. Steinburg. minister of justice and Mr. Kakegaieff. minister of agriculture, are the most prominent cabinet members thus v tthd i awn.

Every City and Town in Incii-!

ana Planning Intensive Work.

LAIWYFrn:. lnl, March 1 - , The war garden movement which gained such headway last spring j upon the declaration cd war and j which took the entire country by j storm is bi-tger than ever in Indiana;

this year, reports received by St; te Garden leader F. G. "Gaylord indicate. A half million gardens were planted in hoosierl and last year and their products were worth $10,oiot,000 it has been e-timated. Thi year, the number of gardens will be increased to tjtoi.noii, practically

the maximum of the state, it is thought, and the alue of each gar-! i

den will be greatly increased. In every city and town the plan

is neiiig taken up on a more intensive scale and everywhere there is evidence of a determination among these city producers to get the larg

est possthle returns from their i

money and labor, expended. The novelty of a war-garden has worn off and throughout the state there is a grim spirit prevailing with the patriotic folk that bodes ill for the Kaiser in the matter of food prod uction. Early blight whi-h hit hundreds of potato patches; plant lice and other insects and diseases which cut a Mi; hole in the garden profits of l!G 7 are going to be guarded against. Things arc going to be made as hot for these pasky, little green bugs and their cohorts a.s the American troops "over there" are making it lor the bodies. Gardeners are going to profit b their pievious experience. Orgaiii Garden loiccs.

To this end, a score or more of J

Indiana cities such as Indianapolis. Fort Wayne, 1'vanswlie. South Fend Terie Haute, Muncie, Anderson. Richmond. Lafuvette, Plymouth and

others have organized their local i

garden forces and have obtained the services of trained supervisors.
