Statesmen, playing their game for economic advantages in trade or territory pick the quarrels, stimulate a national hatred and let innocent people furnish the cannon fodder. But the statesmen are on hand to pick the bones. Individuals who protect their honor or settle private quarrels by killing are put in jail as criminals. Men who kill to Settle the quarrels of statesmen are heroes. If statesmen were compelled to either comproi mise to do their own fighting there would be no more wars. o Don't Worry Because of ill health. Take my treatments and get well. My treatments are different. Dr. Warner. 214 S. sth St., Goshen. Phone 176.

MOON FARMING Moon farming, according to the Weather Bureau, is “moonshine.’’ It has absolutely no support from any scientific point of view. By “moon farming” is meant sowing or reaping, breeding or butchering, shingling or shearing, or any other farm activities supposed to be affected by the “dark” or the “light” or some other phase of the moon. The chief things affecting the growth of crops at any stage are: Temperature and moisture conditions of soil and air; composition or adjacent atmosphere; kind and intensity of light; presence; or absence, and severity, of plant disease; mechanical condition of soil, loose or compact; fertility of the soil, and quantity of other vegetation, , or weeds, present. Meteorologists can show that the moon has nothing to do with any of these conditions affecting crops. It has no influence on weather or soil. BREEDS OF POULTRY KEPT A few breeds of poultry—the Barred and White Plymouth Rocks. Rhode Island Red, White Wyandotte, and Single-Comb White Leghorn—are kept to a greater extent than all other breeds and varieties combined. It is not, experts of the U. S. Department of Agriculture say. that these five varieties combine economic qualities superior to all other varieties, but they have gained wide popularity and have been bred to a greater extent than others. In fact the strain or breeding of the birds is more important than the breed or variety to which they belong.

The rule goes into effect the first of next January. It will have to be admitted that Mussolini’s methods have many advantages over rule by party.
