AN APPEAL TO GROW LARGER CROPS
A senator is quoted as saying concerning the admin
istration's urging the speeding up of farm production:
"It's well enough to be lining up golf courses and raising
beans, but what real Americans who have not been hypno
tized by 'isms' want to see, is some American boys in
khaki tearing up a few German trenches." There was a
bunch of this same kind of patriots at the beginning of
the civil war w ho shouted "on to Richmond'' vociferously,
but it was noticed that they meant for someone else to do
the "on to Richmond" stunt. The result was that the at-

No other country has the resources in land and popula
tion to meet this emergency but the United States. There
is no business upon which all other business depends as
upon this of growing a big crop in America this year.
And the work must be started immediately. There is no
time to wait on organization from outside. The emerg
ency can be met only by spontaneous action in every
state, county and school district, forming local organ
izations. "Picture in your mind what conditions wall be in our
own cities next winter, and of the effect upon all industry,
if food supplies are scarcer and dearer than they are now !
It must .be impressed upon everybody that no wage ad
vances or regulation of prices can add one bushel of
wheat or potatoes to the supply after the growing season
is over. '
"The country is aroused, but mere alarm will not ac
complish results. There must be organized personal work,
headed in every locality by men of force and influence."

Thou knowest what patience we have observed toward
our enemies until riehteous self defense compelled us to

about the starting of the war, but it is going the limit to
get up in church and try to deceive God himself about it.
Whatever may have been the real cause of war, everyone
knows that Austria took advantage of the assassination
of one of her princes to force war on Serbia, well know
ing it would mean a war with the allied countries. No
doubt the old emperor was forced to take this step by the
kaiser and his advisers, but that does not alter the fact
that Austria deliberately started the war, and as it is
stated here in the west: "It started something it cannot
finish."
