Why This American Grandmother Gets Passport
WASHINGTON. The state department Is still sitting on the passport lid,
nnd the American who goes oversells these days must have renl business.
Hut Mrs. Adeline Wagner, a little old woman of ISellalro, O., Is' going to
I ranee. Her story, at first unhelleved,
has been Investigated and found to be
true In every pnrtlculnr.
When the war broke out Mrs.
Wngner's one son Joined the -French
army as a private In the One Hundred
and Korty-elghth-Infantry regiment.
His wife and two children were In Bel
glum arid smv their village fall Into
tho hands of the Germnns.
Tho husband was killed In action
on the Somiiie, nnd his widow com
mitted n crime. She cave a French
soldier a drink of water. She and her son were hustled oft to thb village
square where a dozen or more villagers were awaiting death.
Ghastly humor actuated one of tho German olllcers when he saw the
widow and her hoy, a youth of twelve. Ho handed the youngster a rifle and
explnlncd to him Hint both he and his mother would he saved from punish
ment If ho killed one of the helpless villagers before them. Ho thrust the rifle
Into the boy's hands. "When I count three," he explained, "you lire and you
kill." Then he counted.
A shot rang out. The hoy had wheeled about and Ilrcd at tho hulking
form In gray. The Germnn officer was dead. In an Instant tho lntter's com
panions liad killed both the mother and son.
The baby girl, then six months old, wns not hold culpable by the Germnns
nnd she escnped. The grandmother today thinks neighbors havo cared for her
and she wants tho child.
Sho will also search for three graves.
Is It any wonder that the stnte department granted n passport to this
grandmother?
Farmers Want Soldier Sons, and Want Them Now
TP nE farmers of the country uro up In arms over'the refusal of the war de
partment to release from the army camps thousands of soldiers desperately
needed to plnnt the crops this spring. Senators and representatives have been
Inundated with appeals for relief from
tno agricultural sections In wlilcn tlio
shortage of farm labor Is so acute as
to threaten a diminution of food -crops
nnd the secretary of war Is being bom
barded by the statesmen. Altogether
a showdown between the farmers and
the war department nppear Imminent.
In n vigorous letter to Acting Sec
retary of War Crowell, Representative
Frank L. Smith of Illinois has voiced
the demands of the farmers and their
lack of comprehension of a demobiliza
tion system which realises tnousunds of men without Jobs whom the govern
ment Is expending hundreds of thousnnds of dollar to aid In procuring
employment, while retaining In the service thousands of farm hands clamoring
to be discharged in order to return to the Jobs wuiting for them.
The war department bus-contended thnt only lndispensnble soldiers were
being retained In tho service und that the war emergency Is not ended. Official
utterauces hnve broadly Intimated that," us a large army Is still necessary to
back up tho president In forcing the enemy to conclude a satisfactory peace,
It Is little short of unputrlotlc If not disloyal to demand discharges so numer
ous as to weaken our forces under arms.
Tho fnrmers retort that the forces would not be weakened If men returned,
from overseas without jobs In sight were assigned to army camps to replace
the farm hands.
Each case Is a desperately urgent case at this time, because If a farm Is
not planted soon It must He Idle.

"Plus War Tax" Now in Shopkeepers' Vocabulary
prAJS wnr tnx" nas been added to the vocabulary of the sales person In
L "women nnd mlspes" garments. Tho 10 per cent luxury tnx to help
defray the expenses of the recent excursion to Europe went into effect Muy 1.
Lingerie alone Is exempt from the
levy. Based on the minimum taxable
values, mllndy's outfit on a summer
uuy win represent n tax or .i).au on a t, Cl
$53 wardrobe, not including Jewelry,
as she will be seen Sundays, holidays,
and matinee days. In brief, It will
cost a wamnn 10 per cent more to dress
up with tho luxury tnx plastered on.
And 3 per cent more to "make
up." Tho 3 per cent tax Is placed on
toilet soaps, perfumes,, essences, ex- rWi-sTiiiii 7) ex
tracts, toilet waters, cosmetics, tutlr
oils, pomades, hnlr dressings, hair restoratives, tooth and mouth wnshes,
dentifrices, nronintlc cnclioufi, and petroleum products.
The ladles' wearing apparel tax stnrts on silk stockings costing 52 or over;
shoes for which $10 or more Is paid; hats, $15; petticoats and waists, $15;
pnjniniis, $5, nnd the accessories Include fans, 51 ; parasols, $4, nnd vanity
cases, 825. There Is a 10 per cent tax on things to wear made of fur, hide, or
pelt. Trunks selling at $50 come under the tax.
As toUiats, the government seems to renllzo the necessity of a good hat
for a woman. Men are taxed for their millinery jin anything over $5, while
women may spend ns high as $15 without being hit. Toilet articles, however,
are taxed 1 cent for each 25 cents or fraction thereof.
Persons with deformed feet, whoso shoes have to be made especially for
them, may go over the $10 mark without penalty.
As n mntter of fact, the tax Is so small that, while In the aggregate It
will mean much to the government, It will not burden the Individual very
heavily.
Million Homes Needed; Uncle Sam Quits Building
ONE million new houses und apartments nre needed throughout the country,
the department of lnbor estimates. The war caused such n slackening of
the building industry In everything except wnr essentials thnt the demand for
homes is now the greatest in tho his-
tory or tho country. Heturns have
been received from several hundred
localities and In every one of them, ex
cept a few where houses were built by
tho government for war needs, a short
age of housing Is reported. New York
city shows tho greatest need of hous
ing, shelter for 75,000 fnmllles being
needed. In Philadelphia 25,000 are
needed. Detroit's figure Is 30,000.
Efforts are being made by the de
pnrtment to get this vast amount of
building under way at once. To usslst in homo building tho lubor department
pluns to ask the next congress to establish a system of homo loan banks to
loan money for building homes, Just ns the farm loan banks now loan money
on farms.
A tentative draft of a bill provides that tho homo loan banks shall bo
formod out of the now private home loan and building associations.
On the other hnnd, houses of nrtlstlc appearance nnd good material, havliig
every convenience, can be built at costs which have 'prevailed during and since
the war, for amounts varying from $2,000 to $5,000 euch. This has been
proved by tho United States Housing corporation, which built during tho wur
many thousand such houses. It work wns Interrupted by the nrmlstlce nnd It
Is now engaged In closing out a $100,000,000 business on short notice. '
N Unlike Engluntl, the United States government will not build any house
j n reconstruction measure.
YIELD BIG CROPS
Grain Seeds From Western Can
ada Do Well in Ohio.
Demand for Them l Bound to Add
Value to the Land of Our North,
em Neighbor, Now to
"Be Had Cheap.
A Inrgo area of tho land In several
counties In Ohio prepared for spring
seeding will he seeded with Mnrquls
whent a spring vnrlety. This wheat is
Imported from Western Cnnndn.'lt wns
about thrco years ago that the first of
this Reed was Imported Into the States,
nnd the result, watched each succeed
ing year, proved that Ohio soil nnd
spring seeding wns n success. The
dtmnnd for the seed has now become
so great thnt one of the InrgeRt seed
houses In the stnte, that has been pur
chiming from Western Canada fnrmers
and Importing It, hns decided to pur
chase a large block of land In thnt
fonntry for tlio purpose of growing the
grnln themselves. They will devote
a considerable portion of their West
ern Cnnndn holdings to growing oats,
barley andy rye. Their nctlnn Is a
strong Indorsement of the product. For
some tlme'pnst n considerable qnnn
tlty of seed onts has also been Import
ed The prolific yield reported wns
what prnhnhly gnve nn Impetus to tho
Introduction of wheat.
It was found, though, after n couple
of years the quality of the onts, ns
well as the yield, began to deteriorate
when grown seed wns used, making It
necessary for fresh Importations every
couple of yenrs. It Is possible thnt
tho snme experience may follow tho
growing of Western Cnnndn whent. Tn
fact It Is quite probnble, and the Ohio
farmer will find It necessary to Import
every two years.
With the success that has followed
the Ohio farmers' experiments with
this Imported seed It is possible other
states now growing winter wheat will
begin growing spring whent. It mny
therefore be tnken for granted thnt
Western Canada, In addition to Its
nblllty to produco hundreds of mil
lions of bushels of whent possessing
the greatest percentage of gluten of
any whent In the world, will shortly
be cnlled upon to provide the seed
thnt will he grown on the nddltlonnl
acres In the United States that may be
devoted to spring whent.
It Is a well-established fact that the
further north nny product of the farm
can bo brought to a stnte of maturity,
the more vigorous It becomes. This
has been proven In the grains that
have been produced In Western Can
ada; it has been shown In the devel
opment of Its horses. Its cnttle, Its
sheep and Its hogs; also In Us people.
The neighbor to the north renlly hns
a splendid future before him, nnd
many yenrs will not have pnssed be
fore the lands thnt aro selling todny
at much less tlinn their producing
value will bring prices more commen
surate with their truo worth than they
do today. Think of Innds thnt yield In
their operation a profit of from fifteen
to twenty-five dollars an acre n year
selling nt figures less than $40 nn ncre.
It docs not require n mathematician
to figure the percentage of prollt. It
is unfair to these lands to ask them
to continue these profits for long. So
It Is safe to make the prediction thnt
In a very few years they will plnce
themselves on n parity with other
Innds thnt todny produce less nnd sell
for much more. Advertisement.
