make an American patriot shudder.
At such a time and under such con-
ditions the placing Of equal bodies
Of German and American troops under
otherwise equal conditions would bring
us disastrous defeat, through inability
to cope with the enemy's fire drill.
Every effort is being made in Ger
many to-day to better the results Of
target practice. AS practically every
young man in the fatherland is re-
quired to serve a term in the army,
there is not so much need of encour-
aging young men to learn how to point
a gun rightly before going under the
colors. But every inducement is of
fered to bring about the best work on
the range. Enlisted men who shoot
excellently are given special privileges,
ana money prizes are divided among
those who lead. Non-commissioned Of
ficers who establish records are pre-
scented with watches inscribed in the
name of the Kaiser. Even commits
stoned officers are required to work
faithfully on the range; every one Of
them must qualify in craftsmanship
if he hopes 10 retain his commission.
Those WHO hold the highest records are
presented, in the name of the Kaiser,
with swords or sabres. The whole
present spirit Of the German army's
range discipline is that no man pos
sessed Of good eyesight can offer sat-
isfactory excuse for failure to come
up to the required standard.
Infantry instruction in the American
army is most thorough. The officers
are splendidly trained, and they work
assiduOusly with the material that
comes to hand in the shape of recruits.
Most of the on-commissioned officers
are men who understand the details
of rifle work. If the people of this
country revive their old enthusiasm for
gunwork, there is no doubt whatev err
that the troops Of the United States,
both regular and volunteer, will be
able, after little, to show their old
percentage of superiority over the
troops of the other nations of the
world. There is every reason why our
men should be the best shots to be
found anywhere on the globe. We
Americans represent a mixture Of the
best pioneer blood that has come out
of Europe. Pioneers who go from
any nation stand for the hardest and
bravest men. In new and wild coun-
tries pioneers are obliged to use the
rifle constantly, both for protection Of
life and the securing of meat. Prac-
tice makes such men perfect in the use
of the rifle, and our ancestors were
men who learned to shoot we'll through
sheer necessity and the spirit Of emu
lation that pioneer life causes among
men Of energy. Americans are sharp
shooters by inheritance, but that her.
itage must not be wasted through apa-
thy, now that the days of momentary
seclIrity are with us

Since 1891 the mortality among chill
dren less than one year old, in the
city Of Chicago, has decreased sixty
per cent, and the health department Of
that city ascribes this remarkable re-
suit not so much to an improved milk
supply, the antitoxin treatment for
diphtheria, and similar causes, as to
the work accomplished by womens
clubs and other organizations in edu-
eating mothers in the hygiene Of
young children. This is believed to
be the principal agency in improving
the babies chances for life.

Twenty thousand quarts of skinned

Twenty thousand quarts of skinned
milk a day are used in Austria for
making substitutes for horn, ivory,
amber and such like things. The
casein in the milk is precipitated by a
chemical process and then mixed with
formaline. This produces galalith, or
petrifed milk, hard, elastic, insoluble
substance that is easily worked. The
Austrian dairy experts think that the
demand for the skinned milk for this
purpose will be great enough to in
crease the profit in the butter-making
business by producing a ready market
for the by-product.

Minneapolis Chamber Of Commerce,
May 21.-Traders in wheat came down
this morning expecting a probable set
back in prices. A 5-cent advance leau-

usually be figured to mean a break. But
this morning the trade ran into rain re-
port from the Red River valley to start
with, and many who might otherwise
have turned sellers, bought instead on
this. which was a very bullish Item. me
local falling off was even heavier than
had been predicted, the decrease running
to 1,O39,726 blu, while for the one day to

crease of 21E, 900 bu. The foreign news
was bullish even tho tho leading mar
kets were closed. Broomhall expects
showing Of about 5000, 900 bu in worlds
shipments on Monday. and a decrease on

ferent thing from the recent shipments OF

tone Of strength runs thru all markets
