W H A T 'S TH E U8E7 Tea, what la the use In making agree ments with Germany, through neutrals acting as Intermediaries, or In any other Imaginable way? Through neu trals an agreement was reached be tween Great Britain us to the treat ment of prisoners captured by one or the other of the two armies. It turna out that while the British have kept their part of the agreement and have been treating Germun prisoners hu manely. the Germans have paid no at tention to It. There seems to be no doubt of the fact that umong the other and divers atrocities of which the Ger> man authorities have been guilty has been the treatment of British and French prisoners falling Into German hands, that treatment being In Una with other atrocities. Any sort o f agreement reached with the German rulers Isn’t worth any more than the paper upon which It Is written, says Knoxville Journal and Tribune. The German authorities themselves no doubt laugh at the credulity of the rep resentatives or ugents of an enemy government In thinking any sort of aa agreement made will have any binding force with Germans In the treatment o f prisoners or anything else upon which an agreement might be sought. AN EMPHATIC NO. Something Is being said about wom en working on the farms. Were It necessary to have them so work, many of them would. But It Isn't necessary, not yet, says Knoxville Journal and Tribune. Such a necessity Is not In sight. It will not be In slgbt before the necessity arises for having five times as many men In the nation's ar mies as have been enlisted up to the present date. There are a lot of things to be done before It will be come necessary for American women to work on the farms. There are yet a good many Idle men who must be put to work before calling upon the women to do farm work. The first thing to be done Is to see all these idlers put to work. Most of such are found In the cities, and at the start would not make No. 1 farmhands, but our young men don't make No. 1 sol diers until they have been prepared and trained for what they are to da If not good farm workers, and theli services are essential, take the Idlers and train them. I f It con be done In no other way, udopt such discipline as will make something out of them Women were not made to do farm work and should not be expected or permitted to do such work except as a last and desperate resort.
