Russia has ordered 22,000
freight cars in this country, from
six equipment companies, and the
Pullman company is about to sign
a contract to furnish 40,000 more.
That’s a type of export trade in
which every citizen, whatever his
war sympathies, can find an un
qualified satisfaction.
One half the trouble in every
community comes from the fact
that so many people have not the
capacity to keep their mouths shut.
We have two ears but only one
tongue which is suggestive of the
fact that we should hear more than
we tell. By the power of a secret
divulged families, churches, neigh
bors and even nations fiy apart.
By the power of a secret kept,
great charities, reformatory move
ments and Christian enterprises
may be advanced.
Lee’s army of 28,000 men sur
rendered to Grant fifty years ago
was a mere handful compared with
the armies being captured in Eu
rope where men are the cheapest
commodity on hand. And Napoleon
was a four-flusher and a piker.
two, threew/th ~ the armies of the
present time. Even at that, how
ever, the glittering generals of the
past raised as much hell to the
square inch as those in the lime
light today. There was no more
excuse for war then than there is
now. Civilization hasn't adyanced
a great deal after all.
THE QUESTION Of ETHICS.
The controversy over the ship
ment of arms abroad goes merrily
on. From the standpoint of moral
obligation this country would be far
better off if ammunition and guns
were never permitted to leave the
factories in which they are made.
If we could have our desires grati
fied, it is quite likely that the
American people would abolish the
production of all implements of
warfare. But we cannot have that
wish fulfilled. As long as nations
are filled with the lust of gain
which promotes war, murderous
weapons will be made, arui we
must keep up with the proces sion.
We must "prepare for peace” by
being ready for war, or words to
that effect. We have, it is troe,
furnished arms to the European
belligerents. Men are being killed i
every day by bulJats in the New '
England states. But it is not an
innovation. Americans were killed
in earlier >ars by bullets made
abroad. Federal soldiers fell in
windrow 3 when Southern soldiers,
shootir,g with guns and exploding
builds made in England and
Fra nce, opposed us in '61. Span
ish soldiers did not kill as many
Americans in 98 as they wanted to,
but it was not the fault of the guns
made in Germany. And, so far as
we know now, our government did
not complain because the enemy
bought arms from neutral powers’
makers. It seems to be the point
of view again. As we say, morally
it is wrong, but the time has come,
apparently, when the ethics of war
can be adhered to in time of war
as it seems possible to do in time
of peace. ,

Mr. Farmer and Live Stock Grower, the
Lubbock Sudan Grass Seed Association
Is calling to you to quit buying feed and buy Sudan Grass Seed.
The Lubbock Sudan Grass Seed Association was organized last
year and is composed of Lubbock county farmers who are pro
ducers of pure Sudan Grass Seed. Every crop handled by this
association, was inspected in the field before the crops were har
vested, by a committee of five men. Mr. V. L. Cory, superin
tendent of Lubbock sub-station No. 8, a state experiment sta
tion, is chairman of said committee. All crops found to be
poisoned by oonoxious pests and weeds were condemed and not
handled by this association. Mr. farmer, do not be misled by the
“inspection certificate.” You have no way in the world to con
nect the seed with the certificate offered. Sudan grass is a big
hay producer as a follow-crop after harvesting the wheat and
oats. It can be planted, with good results, up to July first. Pure
recleaned, well matured, officially inspected Sudan grass Seed,
forty cents per pound delievered. Seed that will please you and
produce satisfactory results. Free booklet on request—"The
Story of Sudan Grass.”
