STRONGER NAVY AND
ARBITRATION TREATIES
President Insists Upon Both and VIII
Withdraw Latter If They Are Changed


WASHINGTON. D. c., Jan. 11.-If the
arbitration treaties now pending before
the senate are emasculated the president
says he will withdraw them from consid-
Grafton. AT the conference last Saturday
he informed the senators that he desired
the treaties to be ratified In his opinion
such action is Of the highest Importance.
He desired them to know that he would
not permit the pending treaties to be
radically changed. as 1t has been intf-
mated they might be. The treaties are op-
posed in their present form by Southern
senators, who do not wish to have their
states involved by reason of bonds held
abroad and which have been repudiated
by their states. The treaties will be
taken up again at the next meeting of the
committee.
The president has impressed upon mem
bers of congress, particularly of the sem
ate, that he regards the treaties and a
formidable American navy as the best as
surance of peace the United States pos
sibly could have He told several callers
today therefore that he wanted the trea-
ties ratifled and the naval proera m,ne
carried out without serious mo(lifica fjon
The president, in a letter to Senator
Cuilom chairman of the committee on
foreign relations, says of the state debt
Under no conceivable circumstances
could any such construction of the treaty
be for a moment entertained by any presi-
dent The holders of state debts take
them with full knowledge of their con-
Stitutionai limitations upon their recovery

credit. Such a claim against state could
under no condition be submitted by the

PEOPLE AND THINGS

French women have long been noted
for their business ability, and the
washerwomen of Paris are maintaining
the reputation of their country women
by the use they are making of the
death dealing motor car. Several of
them have established laundries twen-s
ty meters out of Paris, where they can
work under much better conditions and
communicate with their customers by
means of motor cars. Horses We're once
used by one laundry for this purpose,
but 1T was necessary for them to work
only two days a week, and every day
they devoured oats. The motor car has
the advantage of eating only when it
works.

IMPROVING THE COW.

Very little attention it seems haA
ever been given to improving individ-
ual cows by systematic care and feed
ing through number of years. But
one of the southern stations notices
great improvement in young cows
which received grain. Not only in
young cows is this development no.
ticed but it also seems to be true
of mature animals, and this develop
ment, which is not noticed during
the first year in which the COW re-
cieves grain. is noticed in the second
year and continues until in many in
stances mature but inferior and I'M
profitable dairy animals develop into
very profitable cows for dairy pur-
poses. From the record of these cows
1t is thought to be question If the
quality of dairy cow does not depend
almost as much on the feeding as on
the breeding. 1t is also question II

BUYING SEEDS.

The great annual seeding time is
almost around again; several points
should be carefully considered by the
farmer regarding the purchase OF
field and garden seeds. Because of
the Importance of the former, espe-
cially should we exercise good judg-
ment in selecting seed. Failures in
grass seeds are particularly bad, for
they either throw US out of the use
of that gound for one or more seasons
or else we are forced to cultivate 1t
another season, depriving it of the
+. intended rest-in either case we lose
the money invested and labor involv-
ed. Corn, oats and such are not SO
bad if they fail for they can be re-
sown in time, yet we should cry to
