The farmer's crop usually has a conflict with enemies. It may be drought, or excessive rainfall, or temporature, or insects, or bacteria, or mold, or sun spots. There is no other business that has such an array of formidable opponents. Consumers must reimburse the farmer for this l03s, or he "will become insolvent and agri culture must cease. In the case of corn, for instance, there are always annual variations from the average yield per acre for a period of years, and often there ii a sharp upward or downward turn from one year to the next. In 1901, memorable in corn history, a protracted drought in the corn helt reduced the yield per acre for the United States to 16 7 bushels, or to about two-thirds of the usual yield, but such a yield was some what exceeded the following' year. Corn production was almost impossible in Kansas in 1913 when the nominal yield per acre was only 3 2 bushela, although the average of the 10 years end ing with 1917 is 17 5 bushels and the production now and then in individual years is more than 20 bushels and reached 31 buehels in 1912. In Illinois in 1913 the corn yield per acre fell 20 per cent below the average of the 10 years mentioned and 82 per cent, below the yield per acre of tho preceding year. During the last 10 years, the corn yield per acre in the great corn state of Iowa has ranged from 30 to 43 bushels, a difference between ex tremes of 13 bushels, or 43 and 80 per cent, renpectively, of the extremes and 87 per cent, of the average yield of ten years. As a corn raiser the farmer Is a gambler against the forces and living things of nature, and if at times he loits at other times be must win, and in the krg run the prices of the products that he sells most be high enongh to put him "ahead of the game."

If there be any taint hearted Americana who supposed that we were not in deadly earnest in this war they will be disillusion ed by the new and enlarged pro gramme of the War Department. General March, Chief of Staff, explaining conditions before the II use Appropriations Committee said that we are working for an army of 4.800.0CO men by next July. This too, after all de ductions have been made for casualties and rejections. We already have about 8,200,000 men under arms, and the plan is to call 2.700,000 of the new draft registrants to the colors by July. Tins requires money, but we will have all the money we need. It calls for hard work, but no one is going to shirk that part of the business. One of the char acteristics of the American peo ple is that they do not undertake any j )b which theyjire not pre pared to finish. We were slow tc enter tin war, but once the die was cast we were in it to the end. In the light of present day ev ents it is amusing to recall the attitude of some of the cautious ones in the beginning of the war. Some few thought the mere dec- J laration of war on the part of the United States would be su ffl cient It was to have a moral tffjet which would be sufficient for all purposes, Aiier mat it was hinted that if we could lands a small force the mere fact of their presence would be ample for the needs of our allies. Even the most strenuous did not dream of an army of millions of men. And now, with only a little more than a year of preparation, we are planning for an army cfal. most five millions. It is the American way to do a thing right. And this thing is going to be done right. It is no wonder that the Germans and the Austrians, having bad a taste of American fighting, and seeing the prepara tions which are being made for the future, are beginning to whine aod to talk about peace. But as Patrick Henry once on a historic occasion, said they talk peace when there is no peace. We are in this war to convince the bar barous Huns that they are wrong, and the only way to convince them of that fact is to beat them to their knees. The people of tho United States have been fully roused They are filled with enthusiasm, but in spite of that exalted feel ing the war is being conducted in a calm, dispassionate way, tte army has been organized upon a scientific basis, and we are go ing about the work id the ouly possible way to secure results We want the greatest possible manpower in order to have the least possible loss of life. An overwhelming force now means a shortened war, and thit means the return of the boys at the earliest practicable time. The army of five million men carries a moral with it. It means that if we are goicg to have a war we must wage it on a big modern scale, and in a way to insure a decisive victory. Philadelphia Inquirer. ' Miners' Families Sare Wheat. In St. Louti County, Minn., where 85 to 90 per cent, of the population are foreign born, or have foreign born parents, the county home demonstration agent of the United States De partment of Agriculture and the State Agriculture has belted the women attack some of t&eir biggest problems. A three months' campaign in wheat sav ing in six towns in this mining section retulted in reaching 3,0 0 families and saving 62 tons of wheat flour by the use of sub stitutes, in spite of the fact that opposition was met with at first from the Austrians and Finns, who had considered the use of white bread a mark of independ ence and prosperity. Figures collected during a recent child welfare campaign In the coun ty proved that, owing to im proper diet, a large majority of the children were subnormal in height and weight. Fifteen hundred o'. these have piumineo the agent to drink a pint of milk a day, or to "howl till thny get it." Io Augusta twodiy can ning school was he'd in each town in the "Iron Htnge," at wblcb selected leaders received p cial t'aining which enabled them to piss on th instruction to the women in their communities. SALUVIA. During an electric storm on Monday of last week lightning struck and burned the barn of Geo.

Mr. Ensley bad quite a quanity of bay, straw, some phosphate, fanning mill, etc , stored in the barn It is correctly reported that be bad 4f0 insurance on the barn and a Btnall amount on the contents. which will riot nearly be sufficient to rebuild, and restore the con tents in these war times.
