PUone Main 8.1. BLOCKADES CUT BOTH WAYS One of our exchanges calls attention to the exagger ated ideas which prevail as to the value of a policy in tended to seal the ports of a country against commercial intercourse with other nations. More than once in its earlier history the United States resorted to an embargo against foreign trade. Japan by choice was long a hermit nation and built up a remarkable civilization of its own peculiar type. Japan continued its self-blockade until other countries ended it by force- The blockade of the Southern States in rebellion did not starve them, but taught them many new lessons in economic production. Under such circumstances the ingenuity of a people is vigorously exercised, and practical substitutes are found for what had been supposed to be necessities. In the days of the civil war high prices compelled the people of the North also to resort to some makeshifts in such standard articles of food as coffee. According to a late German trade review some re markable benefits have resulted from the suspension of German foreign commerce. It is stated that German science has found ways to replace raw materials now lacking, and that the progress made will be of great future advantage. Nitrogen is extracted from the air by a new process, and the fodder value of straw largely in creased. The Institute for Yeast Industries in Berlin is making food yeast with over 50 per cent albumen from a simple treatment of sugar and ammonium sulphate. A TRENCH IN WARFARE PRACTICAL COURSES The trench which has become the chief feature of the present war and is commonly regarded as a strictly mod ern method, along with the air ship and submarine, is really one of the oldest of inventions of war in ancient times. . The proprecy of Christ against Jerusalem was: lne enemy shall dig a trench about thee." This was the most effective mode of warfare in those; days when stones, arrows and missiles of warfare in, those days when stones, arrows and missiles of various j sorts were the chief elements in both attack and defense.; T.otov vchnn hnnrl-tn-hand fifrhtinc with sneai'S. axes, vv., - -o o -1 '!.. will be of pnietie Droausworus, oayoneis aim sman anus Decamt: m yicai , ;e ,, jvill(,, has ,wKht the commer cial departments to me limn in me public schools, until now fully one half of the students in the higher grades are interested in studies that will lie of value to them from a dollars and cents standpoint.

Phone 926 The town of Waycross down in Georgia has a new' ordinance which requires the registration of all washer-: women and the inspection of the premises where washing is done. In all this riot of demand here in the West for inspection of one sort and another, for examination and issue of diploma or permit, the real object being not so much the protection of the public against incompetency; and errors as to provide jobs for lame ducks, it appears! that the Waycross plan has been overlooked. The profes sion of the washerwoman so far goes untaxed for regis tration and certificate or license, though in instances it is taxed by lazy husbands who lie around and eat up the profits. Their contention that the world owes them a liv ing is no stronger, though, than that of the politicians who sit around waiting to fill the new jobs created at the expense of the taxpayers and real workingman. At the rate the Allies are spending money that billion dollars will not last long should they succeed in borrow ing it.
