A QUESTION OP PATRIOTISM.
THOSE of us who have to stay at home can best serve
their country by cultivating the idle land. Every acre
of soil in the valley should be made to produce something
this year.
America's principal part in the world wide struggle
will be feeding the belligerents. There is a world shortage
in staples and $2 wheat and
is a market 1 lr everything that can be grown and crop pros
peels were never more promising.
One of the principal troubles of the valley is that we do
not produce suuicientlr, even m normal times, tor our
population. There are too many idle people as well as too
much idle land, too many seeking wealth by speculation,
too l ew by honest industry.
This year it is not only a
also a question of patriotism.

respect and employ substitutes to beat back Prussian
barbananism in the trenches.
Any such course as that suggested by some congress
men of waiting until we trained an army of a million before
aggressive action, would justify the German opinion of
America that we have become soft and good for nothing
but dollar chasing.
Berlin believes that long before the United States can
train and equip an army, that the European war will have
been won by Germany, which will then be in shape to re
imburse hcisclf the cost of the struggle from America's
overflowing treasury.
A large part of the world entertains the German opin
ion that the United States is a helpless nonentity when it
comes to fighting a huge, disorganized inefficient mass.
It is our duty as well as prvilege to smash some of these
illusions to prove that not even Prussian militarism can
evolve a better fighting niachne than democratic America.
The moral effect of a division of American of the bat
tlefield would be beyond calculation. It would inspire the
allies with enthusiasm and be a waning to Germany that
they are facing efficiency instead of the fatty dencgenra
tion they expect.
