.Saves 7-8 of the labor of planting. THE COLE ONE-HORSE GRAIN DRILL If you plant your grain crop right between your cotton or corn rows with a COLE ONE-HORSE GRAIN DRILL, you are far eurer of a good stand when winter is over than \t you sow broad-cast, or with a Western Drill. With one of these machines you can go riybt between your cotton or corn rows and plant three furrows at a time. No need to walt until the crops aro gathered. No need to make seven trips to plow and harrow the land. The soil of your fields is well cultivated in summer and by gram-growing time ls well settled, making an ideal seed-bed for grain. Just plant your crop be tween the rows with a Cole. Save 7-8 of the labor. One man and one borae can easily plant 6 to 8 acres a day. Besides your cotton or corr, crop you get u good grain crop and you can follow this with a cow-pea crop in the spring and plant it with the SAME MACHINE Sow Grain Between Your Cotton ot Corn Rows The seed are planted in little furrows which protect the grain from the winter winds and cold. No danger 11 the plants "spewing" up. The seed are plant ed in a basin where they Becure the moisture they need. You can sow three rows at a time with * Cole No. 34. Our other machines sow one and two rowe. Fertilizer can be applied at the time of planting, and the machine ls splen didly adapted to applying fertilizer to growing crops.

V CHINA REGAINS CONTROL OVER Peking, August 27.-(Associated Press Correspondence.)-China is , about to regain nominal control of ? Outer Mongolia, which declared Its i freedom from Chinese suzerainty at the beglLnlng of the revolution in 1911 ' and set up an independent government with Ute Urga Kutuktu as sovereign. ; In accordance with the recently j perfected I Chlno-Rusfio-Mongolian ! Agreement. Outer Mongolia again re- ; cognizes Chinna's suzerainty, but be comes autonomous and retains its , rights to administer its internal af faire and engage in international ne gotiations respecting commerce and < industry. , This agreement was signed by re- , presentatives of dina, 'Russia and j Mongolia et Kiachta on June 7, and i t?came effective immediately, al? though the formal ratification will i not take place until late in Septem- i ber.. Mr. Chen-lo, the Chinese dip lomat who was chiefly responsible i for the successful negotiations, will i then go to Urga, the ancient Mongo- < lian capital, accompanied by aides ? and three hundred and fifty soldiers, < preparatory to conferring the title of Khan upon Dbe Kutuktu. This will be done with great ceremony under ' the direction of Mr. Chen-lo. who < will remain in Urga as the Chinese (Dignitary if^Tesentlng 'President ? Yuan Sm-kai. i Unlike commissioners who went to 1 Mongolia In former centuries. Mr. i Chen-lo and hts party will not ride i camele- northward from Peking across I the great Gobi desert, but will travel ? by the Trans-Siberian raliway to I Lake .Baikal, where automobiles will i carry them southward. Mongolia is a great unsurveyed 1 land. Its inhabitants are chiefly ' wandering tribes. There are proba- < bly nearly a million of them, but no < census bas ever been made. The i state contains about 1,368,000 square i miles. It is five times as large as l Texas. New York could be Included l within its boundaries twenty-seven I times and lt would make ten Catifor- 1 nias. I ; . Outer Mongolia ia a division which ls poorly distinguished from Mongo- ' Ha proper. 'On most maps lt la trac- ' ed as a vague portion of oMngolia ad- ! joining Siberia. Its boundaries are : os indlflnlte as its political status has been for centuries. Outer Mon- 1 golla claimed to be all Mongolia and assumed direction of affairs of the en tire geographical division known as Mongolia. When it threw off Chinese rule it pretended to speak for all Mongolia. However, there were cer tain portions of the country which in sisted they remain loyal to China. Becanse of the shiftlessness of the Mongolians and their .Us like of work, Chinese found-it prof! .able to locate there centuries ago and engaged in farming, crude manufacturing indus tries and trade. Russia always fear ed Mongolia would ilford the Chinese a gateway to Siberia and enacted strict legislation io keep de Chinese out of the territory east of- Lake Baikal. "Outer Mongolia for the Mongo lians," has been Russia's watchword for many years. Increasing Chinese immigration to MonogoUa, together wRh the increase in the Chinese poli tical Influence, alarmed Russia, which reasoned that the Mongolians' were so Yew and ttl rutless they would never -imperil Russian interests In- Si beria. '.Vi::en Outer Mongolia threw off Chineen rule, Russia recognized the independent government set up by the Urga Kutuktu and negotiated a trade treaty in which the new power wet] called f'Moagolla" and not "Outer J Mongolia. " Ctrina feared Russia was j about to annex Mongolia. Japan al- J so'began an active extension of its In fi upences In- the chaotic country. Consequently Chinese officiais mane every effort to conciliate Outer Mon golia and Boon discovered that Rus sia had no desire .apparently, to an nex .Mongolia, but merely desired that it be maintained aa an autonomous state which would staud as a barrier between Siberia and the thrifty Mil lions south of it, with whom the Rus sian peasant cannot compete. Under the tripartite agreement a commission named by the participat ir.V po ?vera will determine the iimlta ot autonomous. Mongolia. This j ^o;omiBsion ls to begin ita work with I J -two years. Ita task will probably i be- long and trying. There have hev j er been surveys'and the dividing line I between Outer Mongolia and Mon golia proper baa always been in the . twilight sono,. and ?be cause o' heat ed controversy. Ambitious Outer Mongolia leaders boped to induce Russia ? to support them 1n unitize cH oMngolia lu an independent power, and were unwill ing to consider returning to Chinese protection until it ?became clear that' Fxissia would not lend them a hand ' Sa taking o vir Inner Mongolia end creating an all-Mongolian govern ? nient.

The agreement.j 1 grants Chinese good?* the same treat . ment that China gives Mongolian good u. Chinean gooda entering Mon t golla from rho north are to enjoy - Ute same treatment as Russian goods.

Prudent Yuan Shi-kai bas already iBsawd-am etaaesty tar tba leaders instrumental in influencing Frc ?ch Sen; Relation o To Pres? Paris, Aug. 31.-(Associated Press Correspondence. ) -Senator Charles Humbert, one of the leading members Df il J senate committee on military affairs, has written for The Associat ed Press the subjoin, d article on Ute relation of Industry to the war. Sen ator Humbert has been conducting the successful campaign for tho high pressure production by the whole in dustrial resources o? France of the shells and guns whieh he and bis colleagues consider essential to vic tory. He is the new proprietor of \J- Journal wiU.v a circulation of about ont) million. Senator Humber writes: "The important part played by in dustry In the present war is due not only to the power and the perfection af firearms, but even more to the im mense number of men in Une. These millions of combatants would be noth ing more than a mob predestined to massacre without the . ols of com bat which must incessuntiy be sup olled and renewed, and which, for [heir manuftcure iu sufficient quanti ties, require the mobilization of num erous factories provided with the means of turning out the most mod ern instruments of war. "Long before thc war lt could bc seen what character the hostilities woudld take on. Personally, I pre dicted it. The Germans, especially, were very well aware of it, and it ls jnly necessary to think for a moment 3f the formidable preparations they tiad made to rer.Use that they could put at the service of their warlike Intentions a military machinery ready to its laBt detail. The work IC.ey bave done of recent year3 to renew their artillery and to supply their ar mies with heavy, long, range guns, sufficiently wieldly to be able to fol low the r Tvements of their troops, ?as most significant. I regret very leeply that my own country, In Bplte jf oft repeated warning,, did not fol low their example. And yet. it ought .to nave " been pretty evident that In this century of scientific pro gress, of machinery to the limit, sup plies would play, in war a part as im portant as -they play in (tt ie economic life of every day. "But the actual experience of war tuts gone far beyond any foresight for lt. The destnietlve power ot the Firearms-rifles, machine guns, rapid Ure guns of a'? calibre-has been so revealed on the Held of battle that the combatants have had to renounce completely the system of manoeuv ring lo open country. Every troop which attempts to advnee in the open against a well-armed enemy awaiting I', e attack, ls doomed fatally tn dis aster; in an Instant the fire of ma chine guns mows down the ranks like a blade of steel mowing down grain; and thc volleys of artillery methodically annihilates them, letting nothing escape. "That ls the reason for thc necessi ty for seeking protection, as much as may be, against these storms of steel.and explosives; it ls the reason fur the enormous development of field fortifications, trenches, under ground chambers, redoubts, conceal ed shelters and so on. The old for tifications of other times, fixed, stand ing out. marked in advance for the flro of the enemy's artillery, cannot hold out against the projectiles of giant cannot. But the plain ditch, scarcely a yard or two wide, easily dug, completed with invisible ar rangements, tho approach to which ls made impracticable by means ot barb ed-wire entanglements-T-tkat consti tutes an obstacle almost impossible to he taken. Infantry, -hoping to take it at a charge, will leave before such an obstacle every man, though they i bo Innumerable-for one machine "gun, give it time and sufficient to feed lt,. will mow ' down a thousand men as easily as a hundred, and ten thousand, If necessary, as esBily aa a thousand. ? "But, on the other hand, this thread-like obstacle, dug in the ground, furnishes only a. very reduc ed target for artillery fire. To dit liK it 1B not enough simply to spend pro jectiles-they have got to be wasted to demolish the terrain under a veri table hell of do vas tating explosives, under a deluge of shrapnel. "That la why the consumption of munitions,. and especially artillery munitions has exceeded anything that was ever conceived In time ot peace? .And the farther it goes, as the fortifi cations of the battlefields dally be come'more complete and more di? eait *? reaotu the use,of projectiles must be moro widely foreseen. "Moreover, this intensive firing It solf wears out the gun<~. made onlly to fire some thousands of zounds, and there is therefore the necessity of re placing them unceasingly. Prom ibis, lt ia easy to see tho enormous effort which must be required of the factories to keep on supplying guns and munitions. The group of belli gerents whe will win this war is that whlcfiv thank? to its Industry, will bave been able to puah the produc .-t,, --r?,-? Outer Mongolia to throw off Chinese rule. ? While Outer Mongolia for cen turies hat* a sort of semiautonomy, which wea guaranteed by the Man chu rulers, lt never previously en joyed full autonomy, under Chinese directions such as it bat now come Into. However, lioth China and B?s ela are believed to haw had a dls nct diplomatic triumph In the set ement of Outer Mongolia's status, finder tba new agreement Outer Mon golia may direct its interior affair ? without outside influence. China . |uu regained territory which ts al iaest one-third of the republic's en tire area, and F'uasla &sa erected a buffer between Siberia and , the south. itor On f Industry znt Conflictl tton of firearms, projectiles and ex plosives to thu highest point and maintain it there. "I have heard that a German offi cer, speaking lo one of your compa- ! trlots, boasted that the troops ot the I Kaiser would take Calais whenever I they willed-by 'payiug the prtee,' wMch he set at 50.000 killed. Tula boast is silly. Simply spending mea will not give results. Tho Geminis can pay our terrible three-Inch guns a bloody price of fifty or five hun dred thousand men if they please,! without getting anywhere. But ?heH day when, duly prov.Honed for that* purpose, we scatter "long their lines the tempests o flron and fire Vmt we are preparing for them, they will have to abandon their burrows, and our infantry will occupy the ground gained, their guns on their shoulders without losing a man. ,"I have confidence in the final vic tory-a victory perhaps IOBS diBtant than is believed-of France and her allies. The advantage which the Ger man heavy artillery had over us can only bo temporary. The Industrial strength of the peoples leagued to gether for the defence of right far surpasses that of the enemies of hu manity; and the freedom of the seas rennits us to profit of the labors of that great America Wuoso sympa thies, as we know, go out to tho cauye of the independence of peoples. "France, in any case, has had, for centuries, the genius of artillery; once more she has given a proof of this in her marvelous three-inch guns, which no German cannon anywhere near approaii.es in perfection. When Rho shall have completed her arma ments in heavy artillery, we shall show that we fear Germany In no field, nnd that her pretended super iority la merely presumptuous. It? likely to fool an American heiress when a foreign nobleman talks through his cornet Instead of his hat.
