There must be sensible mc-n in Eu rope sufficients high In the councils oi the nations to prevent nil Europe going to war over Servla, and ye' the cable message declare war is im minent and that even the first shot hap been fired. Germany, France, Russia, Italy, England and Austria-Hungary heire been an armed camp so long that the Wit ?pirit may doniinatp to such an extent a in allow tne war lords to throw civilization into the hloodiest conflict of all history, hut the com mon people should he heard in op position to the rail to arms After 111, the plain people do the fighting, though those of royal Mood proclaim war and they should stand solidh ar rayed against the present agitation fc.r a test of armed strength. Tee most commendable policy of the Socialists of Germany and France is that they will not sanction war and are firmly resolved to defeat any military mpve by their own or any other country I OGDEN TOMATO AND PEA CROP One million cases ot tomatoes Trnnlri he 24.000.000 cans That Is the estimate of the tomato pack of j the Oeden canninir district this year.! it may he n little high, hut the crop j prospects were never better and u Is I I pcsible that an unprecedented figure i will he reached. Not so many years ago 100,000 , Cases of tomatoes wer e looked On as i worthy of note, but gradually the In- J '' -try hap grown until an output of I half a million to a million cases is to he expected every year. One of our c&nners places the pea ' pack at 120,000 cases, which is ex 1 raordinary. The very best peas grown in the United states are can-' iteri here The quality is so good that California packer? take the Ogdenj product and label it as their own Ogden tomatoes and pens should; poll in every citv of the country aP Ihpy are unequaled. Were ,-i wider market obtained, the industry might ' 'rpand until the canners here ranked first In the United Stete. CLEARING LANDS OF STUMPS. A new method of .clearing land of ' stumps ha? been tried out by the United States department of agTicul-; ture, with excellent results. An Her tile drill is employed to bore holes ir. the stumps so that powder can be placed to advantage By this I mc.ins, the land is cleared at a cost j as low as ?5 an acre. The outfit costs less than J475 In dislodging a stump securely root ed, the easiest fray Is to place explo ! Fives in a hole bored or dug directly under the center of resistance. Some-1 times farmers endeavor to place the Charge in the earth outside of the stump, but In regions where the trees ,,v - long deep-growing taproots Hi'3 practice "a no h0Pn satisfactory It j results in blowing the dirt BWHJ Horn one side of the tree and onlj loosening the -tump to a slight degree The department Is now rec binmendlng an outfit that will make a hole deep In the earth within the tap rod where the center of resistance I lies. The Outfit recommended has been tried by several turpentine cotnpa Die's who use the stumps of the long el pine for distillation purposes Tht hole? are bored in the taproots b: means ol electric drills, power he me supplied by a dynamo run irom a gasoline engine mounted -ipon n wagon. These companies seem to have found It profitable to employ this quipmenl The lower grades of nitroglycerin powders hne beep tout"! most eco nomical in blasting stumps with tap I he higher grades tend to 1 tiei the stump but do not throw It out Oi the ground as well as the low , grades. The experiments Indicate that twenty per cent powder is cheap er and more satisfactory than -E cent powder. oo CONSTANT NAGGING INJURING BUSINE8S. That the Democratic administration l injuring business by Its constani hi rging at big business Is the opinion ol Jarh suiiivan in Colliers Weekly, who rays It must be admitted that both among the leaders at Washington and throughout public opinion general! there is some apprehension about the consequences of keeping up the pres ent policy toward the New Haven and other railroads and toward organ lzed business generally, The securi ties of the railroads, now In receiver ship aggregate more than a billion dollars. Many of these securities are held by savings banks, trust COmpa ' and, most menacing of all, life insurance companies The consequen j ces of any fundamental Impairment Of these securities are extremely un comfortable for sober-minded persons to contemplate Persons of not very j sober responsibility who insist upon going ahead assume that the only j pei ou who would bes Injured by tile worfcl that nn happen would be pluto j crats of various degrees. A a mat-1 ter of fact, the distress through ini pn rraeut of the assets of life insur ance companies and savings banks i would be practically universal The j in ji:r to these securities is not at all B rfcessar.v result of the about face in the attitude of the government or the conduct of railroads. It will be rather a result of the panic and lack of confidence apt to be caused by continued public hostility to some forms of private property It will be bj President Wilson truly said, 'psy chological" These are the consider? tions which move sober minded peo ple toward hesitancy. Some other who are merely politicians also take the same view that it is time to veer toward conservatism. This latter group, being politicians, have a sense of public moods, and they feel that th- public mood Just now Is a little tired of that very agitation which has 1 I All Sailor Straws in all braids and styles a big line to J A-v fl close from, at eW H All Panamas and Bankok I Straws Reduced One-Fourth I BOYS' WOOL SUITS SPECIAL Odd line of word suits in checks and jm K stripe.

Ar thelhreshold of "home rule, after years of travail, there is creat uncertainty ai to whether the struggling people will en ter into possession of their ou. or once more be denied that which they have sought so ardently and with great sacrifice The rioting In Dublin yesterday during which the troops fired on the Nationalists who had been successful in landing arms, further tends to prove that the British soldiers are in sympathy sritb 'he Ulstetltes and will be found on ihe side of the re bellious forces in the north of Ire land, if there is an open breach, and the government seems hnlpless to prevent this disloyalty on the part of its troops The Killing of women and children by the Scottish Borderers has en raged the Irish Nationalists and has made possible further clashes, which at this time might lead to open war fare, with the troops on one side and home rulers on the other A con flict of that kind eventualh would prejudice the English people and might result in the recall of all home rule legislation This is a most critical period in the affairs oi Ireland and one ill-advised move on the part of (Jleterlte or Nationalist can put Ireland back half a century. We are told that then- are 800,000 Irishmen in the United States, manv of them members of the regular army and stale militia, who have entered on a military enlistment for no othe purpose than to be prepared to aid the cause of Ireland, if the final issue Is war. With those men enter ing; Ireland, the Home Rulers would be strong enough to throw the entire British empire in turmoil. - TAKING THE SCHOOL TO THE HOME There was a time when no one thought of gaining anv part of an education through text books except as a student at school Today the schools are reaching out aod mak ing possible a broader field of useful ness by taking the school into the home. And the activities of teachers art not confined to the children, but 1 embrace all ages from the little one to the grandpa and grandma of the ( family. We welcome this new system be cause it promises so much to those most in need and most appreciative of the advice and guidance of expert teachers Lately tbe government, through the Agricultural colleges, has been work ing out a plan win-rein ten or more farmers or farm women can form hom- classes in agriculture or do mestic f-clence and receive textbooks, lectures, lantern slides, laboratory ami cooking equipment Utah so far has not signified a de sire to be Included among the states making this experiment In education of taking the school to the homes, but should do so. The object of the plan, as set forth by the go eminent, is to make ac cesfible at home, to men and women who have not the time or means to attend the roguLar oourse at the col leges, practical short courses In agri culture and home management spe cially adapted to their districts These courses, which will coiuslst of 15 to 20 lecture;, and will consume five or more weeks, are to be arranged to suit the spare time and conven ience of each group or people The courses to be offered at first g are poultry raising, fruit growing.) soils cheese manufacturing, dairying,; butter-making, and farm bookkeeping. and for the women especially, courses, In the preparation, cooking and use, of vegetable and cereal foods. The department will supply lectures andi l.ml rn slides coering these subjects, j and the stages whic h have agreed to enperate In the plan will lend tol each group laboratory and cooking' apparatus valued at $ 1 mo and a refer ence library. The textbooks and lec tures will he made so complete that each group can safely appoint one of it.-, members is study leader to direct the work of the course. When a group has decided to Like up the work, the state which co-op- rates sends an .igent with the de partment'a representative to organize a sample class and assist the leader whom they elect In laying out the work and in showing him the bust methods of procedure The classes commonly are held from 8 to 1-' In the morning and from 1 to 4 In the afternoon, two or three days each week The sessions are not held ev ery day, so that the members will have time to attend to their farm duller in between the sessions, as well as before and after the Instruction period, The classes meet commonly at the most convenient farmhouse During the morning hours, textbook work Is done. In the afternoon lobora to) work Is conducted, and the wo men who have elected to take the do mestic science courses have practical lessons in cooking As soon as a class is established, the state organizer withdraws to start a class In some other district The work thereafter Is left In charge of the leader, who receives assistance by mail from the college or the depart ment In carrying on the work As there is no regularly paid In Btmctor, classes can be carried on all over the state as rapidly as the college organizer can visit the groups, J and as quicklv as the laboratory sets supplied by the college become avail able. The local leader will preside during the reading of the lectures and references, for which full texts and lantern slides are supplied by the de partment. He will also be responsi ble for the laboratory equipment Ev ery one who completes the course will receive a certificate from the state college. Last winter experiments along ! these lines were carried out success , fully in Pennsylvania, und this has Stimulated an interest in the method J in ether states. In one of the Penn sylvania classes more men applied I than could he accommodated, and all of the 10 men and 16 women who began the course completed It Penn Sylvanll is now arranging for more classes, while Massachusetts, Michi gan, Vermont and Florida expect to take up the work. Other states such, ob Maine, New York. New Jersey, and Delaware have signified their wil lingness to co-operate. Ordinarily a college In a state usu ally applies to the department seek i ing its co-operation, when sufficient interest has been shown in the plan In several communities where ten or more people have sought the Instruc i tion. For financial reasons, certain colleges are not so able to engage in the work as are others. The advantage claimed for the new home courses with local leaden and laboratory equipment over the ordi nary correspondence course is that only a small percentage of thoae who jtake the individual correspondence course finish It. Studying lu a group, with laboratory work and a leader, seems to stimulate the interest and add a social feature which lead thn members of the group to follow the work conscientiously and complete it. oo I THE CAILLAUX TRIAL.
