While realiz ing possibilities of trouble from Ger mans gathering in Mexico, authorities declared the government is prepared adequately to cope with that situation. Sporadic outbreaks and border raids are the most to be guarded against. Indications arc against any real mil itary danger.

Nicholas Romanoff is a model prisoner. He seems entirely contented with his lot. Reports from Tsarskoe-Selo palace to day declared ho was continuing the rogiino of early rising and plenty of exercise by walking that he adopted (when ho was autocrat of all the Bus- Bias, and that he has uttered no word of complaint at his treatment. . The former czar spends the greater part of his time in the garden of the palace. The royal prisoner has made request of the provisional government for per mission to send his son, the former czarevitch, to Norway on account of his health. Tho request has not yet been granted. Members of the palace guard said to day that during Sunday's service in the elinpel at Tsnrskoe Selo it was noted that the first one to kneel when prayers were offered for tho provision al government, was the former ruler. Evidences accumulated daily of the unity cf purpose of all classes to fight for a victory against tleriminy.

University Finishes Survey of Potato Crop University of Oregon, Kugene, Ore-, Mar. SO. Potatoes stand second only to lumber in Oregon's exports, according to data compiled by Allan O. Hopkins, of the university school of commerce for tho United states department of ag riculture. In 110, Mr. Hopkins finds, 35,701 tons of potatoes, or 2,391 car loads, wero shipped out of the state, bringing to the producer, at an average price of $UHt a hundred, approximate ly $14,000,000. This sum is an aver age of $20 each for every nuin, woman and child in the state. Oregon's potato growing area, as show by the survey, to which Mr. Hop wins devoted three weeks, is approxi mately 513,000 acres. The average yield for the last 10 years has been 12i bushels (almost four tons) to the acre. This is increasing, as indicated by the litlG yield of 150 bushels, and the in crease is laid by the growers and others who reported to Mr. tiopmus, iu im proved methods of cultivation and the stnmliirdi.ation of varieties. The yield varies from 50 bushels iu dry asco of internment. Kven if the Germans do stir up trou ble in Mexico, the scope of their ac tivities and of the Mexican army it self will not be sufficient, in military men's opinion, to be very serious. Insofar as authorities reveal, there is no disposition on General Carnnza's part to heed German machination and idunire his people into any conflict with the United States. Many of the German workers are being sent out of the Tampieo oil re gion for fear that they will do damage ti the piopcrties which are Great Bri tain's main source supply for her fleet As for this mition herself authorities foresee the possibility of alien plots against munition plants and the like, r.nd this is the reason behiud the or ders for tim militia to do police duty in tho .state.

A movo inent for shipping preparedness in ease of war was launched here today when Theodore Brent vice-chairman of the federal shipping board, appealed to 1150 shipping men and builders to be prepared for an output of hundreds of wooden ships. He declared there is a strong prospects of immediate necessity and he called upon tho builders to tell the commission the details concerning tneir capacity, and their ability to get ninterialy and handle rush, ordrs. Brent declared the United States is facing a grave emergency. "In our study of conditions," ho said, "we have learned that it will be necessary to create a fleet if we are to make munitions, food and supplies to the allies through the submarine block- a ile. "Shipbuilding has not kept pace with the destruction of ships bv sub marines. If England s-hould be starved out, the United States would be in a most embarrassing position and our biggest issue now is to provide ships." A score of shipping and shipbuilding men outlined proposals designed to meet the situation. Mayor dames liolph offered his entire shipbuilding plant to the government.

Morrison of Spring field, who lasc year had 00 acres plant ed in this now-profitable vegetable. These small potato farms contrast with 4,000-ncro tracts in California. Cali fornia, iu fnct, is Oregon's largest po tato customer, and the tubers are bought there not for food but for seed. From 05 to 70 per cent of Oregon 'a en tire potato yield is used for seed pur poses. Next to California, Texas and the southwest arc Oregon's best custom ers. Clackamas county leads the state in potato production, and Lane county stands fifth. The leading varieties now grown in this state are the Early White Rose, largely for export to California; Bur- bank, American Wonder (red), Cold Coin, Prize-taker and Red Rose.

The E. W, Rose Co., Cleveland, O. Farm Loan Interest Fixelat 5 Per Cent by Federal Land Banks Spokane, Wash., Mar. 30. D. G. O'Shoa, president of the Spokane Fed eral Land bank, has returned from Washington where he attended a confer ence of the presidents of the 12 Federal Land banks, with Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo, and the members of the Federal Farm Loan board. He expressed gratification over the feet that this conference had fixed a flat interest rate of five per cent, apply ing to all parts of the United States. He declared that this interest rate would prove a great boon to the farmers of the northwestern states and predicted that within a year the Spokane Federal Land bank will have made loans aggre gating $10,000,000. Mr. O'Shoa also announced that the conference of bank presidents passed a resolution requesting congress to in crease tho limit of the loans permitted to an individual borrower from $10,000 to $25,000. He expressed the hope that the special session ol congress, soon ro convene, would mane tins cuange ior the large borrowed ot the Spokane bank district. In order that more funds may be available for investment in farm loan bonds, and in turn made available to lend to farmers of this district, Mr. O'Shoa urged that the legislatures of Washincton. Montana. Oregon and Idaho immediately pass laws making farm loan bonds approved investments for trust funds, iiiBiirance companies and savings banks nr. ns!i,no oniinniicnfl that the bonds issued by the 12 Federal Land banks would be placed on the market at 4 1-J per cent, but would probably be sold at a premium, lie cxprvsseo. giauiicuuuu over the fnct that the Fodtwal Farm Loan board has anticipated that at least $100,000,000 ot tuese Donus win ue is sued during the coming year and is making arrangements which will assure a ready market for them. All of this money" will be made available to the farmers of the United States at five per colli To borrow from these Federal Land banks, farmers are required to organize themselves into groups containing at least. 10 farmer-borrowers and eacn group asking for at least $20,000 of loans. The Spokane Federal Land bank is now prepared to furnish a blank: loi-m nf articles of association to make the organization of these groups simple and: easy. Other necessary oibiiks nui i be furnished on applientfon. Farmers are permitted to borrow tip tn fin n.r cent of the appraised value of the land, plus 20 per cent of tho value of the permanent insured improvements. Loans nre to be made at five per ceut and must be retired on the amortization plan, which means repayment by fixed annual payments throughout the period of the loan. The loans may run nvm five to 40 vi-ars at the option or ine borrower. The object of these lang time loans is to enable the tanner to meet these snail annual payments out of the increased earnings of tke land, made possible by the investment of the borrowed money. This new banking system is purely co operative. It is for the sole use of farm or mid nrospective farmers. Farmers will eventually own all of the stock of the Federal Laud banks and they will elect the officers of these banks. There is no opportunity for individual proiit in the pntire system.

New York, Mar. 30. In spite of all Charlie White's failures to acquit him self in a proper manner when pitted against lightweight champions, he looms today as the logical man to fight it out with Benny Leonard for the next long distance crack at Vreddie Welsh ' title. White took . sudden bound upward in the estimation of New York fiuht fans when he gave Fraukie Callahan, of Brooklyn, a sound beating in 10 rounds. White enmo very near stopping his east ern rival, only the toughness of Cal lahan's jaw saving him iu a number of rounds. White met in Callahan one fighter who can take the deadly White left hook and the equally deadly right cross without going down. Ready for Opening. St. Uouis, Mo., Mar. 30. The Browns and the Cardinals finished their train ing stunts at their own parks here to day and are readv for tho opening gong tomorrow afternoon in the inter-city se ries. Of the two clubs, the Cardinals seem in better shape and uncorked some pep- pery stuff in practice. Ihe Browns were not so fortunate as the Cardinals in getting sunny weather in their camp at Palestine and have not that "fin ished" look. However, they were slap ping the pill hard and Fielder Jones says he 's satisfied. The Cardinals today were six to five favorites in the betting on the opener of the spring series. Will He Fight Anywhere? Cleveland, Ohio, Mar. 30. Les Darcy will not fight in Cleveland. This de cision was reached last night when Matt Hinkel announced that Grays armory which seats 2,500 persons, would be wholly inadequate. Becauso o'f the small seating capacity liinRel would be torceu to chargo prohibitive prices. It is now being planned to match Darcy against George Chip at Cedar Point, Ohio, July 4, in a large arena.. He was to have fought Chip here April 19. Darcy has won many friends during his few days in Cleveland and all arc eager to see him tight. O. A. C. Holds Eecord. Corvallis, Ore., Mar. 30.
