Farmers in Germany Work Together

United States Consul-General A w
Thackara Of Berlin thinks the farmers
Of the United States could study with
profit the agricultural conditions in
Germany. He poin-s out that the Ger
man league IS effective in aiding the
membership financially. the loans ag-
gregating over 5000. 600 900 in improved
culture thru travelling experts in SELL
ing farm products and in purchasing
supplies which amount to many mill
lion dollars annually.
The general agricultural organic y
ton has a membership of SIP local
societies. OF this total number 4,39s
are saving and loan societies. These
locals have total membership of 405.-
SIG persons. The fee for admission a.
member Of either of these groups IS
a nominal one. The cooperative pur-
chasing society is a second in num-
Der and in Importance of any of the
group Of the imperial organization It
has a membership Of $4,000 persons.
The value OF goods purchased thru II
1t last year exceeded by approximately
s4,2S4, 600 the purchases of the previous
year. The principal articles purchased
by the farmer thru their organization
are fertilizers. food stuffs, seed. coal
and agricultural machinery. The work
ing caplldi OIL the CO-opSi dllNS WINNIE
societies is a little over s10.000000
Mr.. Thackara points out that the
function of these great farmer organ
izations IS much broader than merely
for the purpose of collective bargain
ing in the sale of farm products, etc,
for in each division there are scientific
experts who on application, and pay
ment of the fee. visit the farms OF the
different members and advise them
concerning the cultivation of their
growing crop and the care Of their live
stock.
Aside from the saving and loan
group which is by far the most nu-
merous of any of the groups of the
general organizations, there are 77s
local societies cooperating in purchas-
ing and selling agricultural imple-
rnents Among a number of the local
societies in certain communities agri-
cultural machinery is owned by the So
ciety. for the general use of the diff
ferent members. The common use OF
such machinery has proved of great
assistance to the members, particularly
of such machinery as grain cleaners,
threshers, etc, which are too expensive
for one man to buy and which are used
only during a short season OF each
year.
Under the present prosperous condl-
tions Of the Am erican farmer he does
not need the cooperative measures
employed in Germany. What he does
need, tho, is that portion Of the Ger
man system which is aimed to build up
the productiveness Of the soil and IN
crease its output with the consequent
increase Of the supply and Of cores
ponding profit to the farmer.

HORRIBLE
MURDER IN

of dashing a meat hook into the
brain of man and swinging the

meat, John Adams, a cement work
er, is in jail here today.
The name of the man is S. w.
Whitehall. Whitehall was foreman
of cement works and lived near
Adams at Suisun. Adams although
charged with murder, is suspected
of being insane. In a statement to
the sheriff today he said:
Il dreamed that Whitehall was at

fend my life, so / seized the first

The room in which the murder of
Adams is accused was committed

the hook had torn loose from the
skull taking with it portions of the
skull and some of the dead mans
brains. Whitehall was asleep when
attacked.

VISITS KING EMANUEL.

Rome, April 4. - King Victor
Emanuel today granted a two-hour
interview to former President Roose-
welt. The length of the audience
caused general surprise, as it was the
longest ever granted to any visitor to
Rome, except upon political ,pcca-
sions. The nature of the conversa-
ton between the king and Roosevelt
was not divulged. but it is believed
that the Vatican incident was dis
cussed.
Following the visit of Roosevelt
and Kermit to the Quirinal, King
Emmanuel said:
"They were a most interesting
pair. have always looked upon
Theodore Roosevelt as one of the
greatest men in the world, Today's
meeting has only strengthened that
impression"
After leaving the palace, Roosevelt
was driven TO the Pantheon, where he
placed wreathes on the tombs of
Kings Emmanuel, Victor and HUNS

A great throng lined the course of
the Roosevelt party to the Pantheon,
and another large crowd witnessed

London, April 4.-For authoriz-
ing Theodore Roosevelt to shoot big
game practically wherever he chose
to go in British East Africa, the En-
glish government is coming in for
much bitter criticism from sports
men here.
The matter was brought conspicu-
'ously to their attention by the arri-
val of a number of Roosevelt trophies
for mounting by Rowland Ward in
Piccadilly. In view of the fact that
they are considered unimportant and
unrepresentative of the entire bag"
local big game hunters who have
been to see them, turned green with
envy. The trophies which have al
ready arrived, they say, are several
of them very rare and, indeed, con-
spicuOus by their absence in English
museums. If they are 'unimpor-
tant and unrepresentative" the
sportsmen want to know what the
rest of the bag" must be like.

Rome, April Although every
one here, with the exception, possibly,
of the strictest type of Catholic, man
ifests a belief that former President
Theodore Roosevelt acted wholly
within his rights, in refusing to ac-
cept an audience with the pope under
certain restrictions, they are express
ing astonishment that Roosevelt saw
fit to publish the contents of messages
that passed between him and the pom
tff's representatives.
The Vatican had taken up the mat
ter of audience with Roosevelt while
the colonel was in Egypt. The COM
nunications exchanged were supposed
to have been in confidence, and the
Catholic authorities here expressed
amazement that the statesman should
have given them to the press for
publication.
The general feeling, however, is
that Roosevelt not only acted within
his rights, but in conformity with the
dignity of his position as former
chief executive of the American re-
public.
1t was pointed out that Monsig-
nor Kennedy's final message left the

decline an audience which would re-
strict his freedom while at Rome.
In effect, the restriction implied in
Monsignor Kennedy's final message to
Roosevelt was that the colonel could
not be received by his holiness if he
contemplated a prior address to the
Methodists here.
Although it is believed that Roose-
welt made no engagement to address
the Methodist college, he deemed it a
curb upon his liberty should he con-
sent to the restriction.
In the course of message Monsig-
nor Kennedy referred to a similar in
cident involving Charles w. Fair
banks, former vice-president of the
United States Fairbanks had agreed
to address the Methodist college, and
also had accepted an invitation to
visit the Vatican.
When he learned that he must
forego the college address, if he de-
sired an audience with the pope, Fair
banks declined the audience.
1t was explained that Monsignor
Kennedy's reference to the Fairbanks
incident was a friendly one, made in
the hope of evading another unpleas-
ant situation.

ROBBERS

Lincoln, Neb., April 4.--The First
