The Turkish Pienipotentiariss.

Constantinople Nov. 21.-NaZim
Pasha, commander In -chief of the
Turkish army; Izzot Pasha. chief of
general staff Of the war Office and late
commander-in-ch chief. and Chadan Bey.
councillor of state, have been APP
pointed the Ottoman plenipotentiaries
for the negotiation of en- armistice
with the Bulgarian representatives.
The question of peace looms large
in the foreground. The fact that the
official communications with regard
to the Bulgarian reply issued at Con-
stantinople and Sofia make no men,
ton of preliminary conditions has
given rise to comment, as 1t was gen.
orally expected that Bulgaria would
insist upon fixing bases before con-
senting to begin negotiations.
Indeed. the belief was general that
Bulgaria would demand the capitula-
ton of Adrianople and other forti-
fled places, and the foreign minister
recently stated to the ambassadors
that Turkey would refuse to entertain
any such stipulations.
Apparently Bulgaria has found
good reasons for refraining from such
an attitude, especially as the entering
upon pour parlers will not compel the
suspension of hostilities until the arm
istice actually has been signed.

Preliminary Discussion.

London, Nov. 21.-The war has
shifted for time from the field of
arms to that of diplomacy. Plenipo-
tentiaries for the beligerent powers
met today at the village OF Hademkeui
few miles outside the capital, for a
preliminary discussion of the terms of
an armistice.
In the meantime, the Turkish, Bull
garian and Servian commanders have
ordered a cessation of hostilities.
The sweeping terms which the al
lies were said to have demanded as a
basis for the armistice appears not to
have been advanced, but 1t is almost
certain that they will be on the basis
of the Balkan states holding all the
conquered country until a permanent
treaty of peace is signed.
How much of his former power
they are prepared to concede the
Turk depends largely upon two fac
tors-the strength and supplies of the
allied armies threatening the gates of
Constantinople. and the extent to
which the cholera spectre has embar-
raised their plans.
| 1t is certain that great transporta-
ton difficulties hamper the Bulgarian
army on account of the distance from
| it's base. Cholera is counted on by
| the Turks to weaken the Bulgarian
ambition for a triumphal march into
the Turkish capital and the celebration
of mass in St. Sophia.
But to make assurance doubly sure,
the Turk has resorted to the amazing
plan of transforming the mosque into
pesthouse and has crowded 1000
cholera stricken patients within Its
| walls.

LARGE NATIONAL APPROPRIATIONS
FOR LEVEES.

In the latest regular Rivers and Harbors
bill the proposed appropriation for leyee
purposes and bank protection of the Miss
issippi river below the mouth of the Ohio
amounted to So, 1000, the most of which
sum was stated to be intended fer bank pro-
lection. Recently additional emergency APP
preparations of several hundred thousand
dollars have been made and distributed for
immediate use IN lcvee defenses against the
great record flood which is now pouring
down the Mississippi river below Memphis.
In view OF the appalling disasters which
have been caused bY the prevailing flood,
and the unfortunate proof that the present
ievee systems of all the states affected are
inadequate for defense against such extremes
of high water, as has been demonstrated by
the destruction OF ievees in ali Of the states
concerned, delegates from such states assem-
bled in Washington during the beginning
of this week and formally appealed to Con-
gress for annual appropriations OF $4,000. 600
TO be applied during this year, and the next
two years, for the Improvement OF the leVeeS
of the lower Mississippi river TO the condl-
ton IN which they might be capable Of re-
sisting any floods Liable to flow Gown our
greatest national river.
The delegates under consideration further
asked that Congress- should Immediately APP
propriate 81, 500, 900 for the repairing as
socn as possible all of the present breaks in
the levee system of the states whose lands
have been over1owed.
When one comes to consider that the cost
of the damages done one year in the several
states affected through the breakage OF
levees too weak to resist the floods will GER
taiyly amount to more than double the en-
tire appropriation of $4,000, 600 asked for,
the current three years, which is needed to
make them impregnable against the a tack
of all such foods, then it would seem no
more than reasonable that the appropriations
asked for should be promptly provided.
With the construction of II continuous
leyee system, which has cut off all former
relief basins or reservoirs, the devastation
of practically all of the Mississippi Valley,
and the cultivation Of most of its vast area,
, 1912-06-08

providing omnipresent pillow burrows and
other artificial drains to pour the once delay
ed rainfall directly into thousands OF minor
and major tributaries of the main river, ITS
Yernal floods have become too sudden and
excessive to be subject to successful defense
of the states through which it flows below
the mouth of the Ohio. Therefore, being a
national river, it should be subject mainly to
national defense. And therefore it should
be the bounden duty of the general govern
ment to protect its millions Of people who
dwell in the vast area of the delta formation
of its national river, which flows from the
Canadian boundary to the Gulf of Mexico,
from the danger and the devastation OF over
low. The national government should do
this, cost what it may; for the expense of It's
neglect has always and will ever be, ten10ld
the cost Of It's precautionary measures.
But III rejecting on the work Of our pre-
sent representatives of our levee states IN
Washington for measures Of present relief
and future defense, We are prompted to su8-
gest a plan for an ideal project OF interstate
cooperation.
This week we have a leyee defense con-
%venti0n, composed Of delegates from Mlssiss-
ippi down TO Louisiana, sitting ia Washing
ton appointing TO Congress for national ad TO
save the agricultural interests Of Their PEG
pie. Only Il few years since we had "a much
larger congress from many more states as
sombled to advocate the improvement OF the
Mississippi rivers commercial channel from
the mouth of the Missouri river down to the
Gulf Of MEXICO. That larger convention was
enthusiastic FOR the establishment OF a a.
foot channel through 1900 miles OF the Miss,
issippi river. In furtheranco Of its plans
and ideas it took the President, the Speaker
of the lower house of Congress, and leading
statesmen from all over the Mississippi Val
lev from st Louis down to Eicksburg and
New Orleans to show them the possibilities
OF the mighty river foY tie most magnificent
sci eme of Interstate navigation on earth.
Now if those advocates for a continuous
"fourteen- foot ehunnel' Oh the Mississippi
would resurrect their organization and join
forces with our evee-improvement conven-
ton a splendid advance III our national needs
might be accomplished.
HE sfourteen-foot channel convention
proposed the protection of caying banks, the
dredging out Of shoals and bars formed by
the excessive silt that had been caused by
deforestation and the attrition Of the rains
on freshly plowed burrows, and building le-
wees from the billions of tons of deposit
which choked the river as a result Of detures-
tution, general cultivation and rapid druin-
age; taking the material from the bars and
bottom of the river to build its leyces in
stead of taking it from the ever-shifting
banks already formed.
Sooner or later our leyee building must
come to that; aud then two subjects will be

This may appear to be a big project, but
it is within the capacity Of this big country
to perform it. And the system Of annual
dredging involved world not be comparable
in cost with that Of cutting through an 18th
milan mountain range for inter-oceanic con-
n%ection.
If the advocates of levee protection and
channel improvement could gust BOW set to-
gether in one great combined representative
congress, plans OF splendid governmental ac-
complishment with the Mississippi river
might be successfully formulated and sub
seouently achieved Eou5Siaha PIemster>

MAKE THE CROP
FIT THE SOIL
Farmer Needs to Study Require
xuent3 Of Various Crons He
Grows and Plan for
Rotation.
(By ". NJ. KELLEY)

There is no use in trying to achieve
success with a soil not fitted to the
crop. We must make more intelli-
gent study of the selection of crops
that are better adapted to our soils
and that can be made to return larger
and more certain profits. There is
something that is very interesting
about the preference of crops for GER
tain soils and climates.
One of the first things for farmers
to learn is to find out which crops are
best adapted to his soil and grow
them on his farm. He needs to study
the requirements Of the various crops
that he grows and plan his rotation
of crops so that each crop may be
grown under the most favorable con-
ditions.
While l am a staunch friend of sta
Bile manure and constantly urging the
keeping of more and better farm
stock, yet | can see the necessity of
facing the situation in practical man
ner.
The average farmer has reached a
point where stable manure will not
supply the adequate amount of plant
food to produce the maximum yield of
The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1912-06-14

, grain and other farm crops, and the
only sensible thing to do is to supply
he deficient elements.
The generality of soils on our stock
farms are deficient in mineral fertil-
liy, especially phosphorus, and it is
clearly to our interest to supply this
one element to our soils if we fit the
soils to the needs Of our crops.
On soils possessing an abundance Of
humus and nitrogen we may purchase
the phosphorus in the form of the raw
around phosphate rock and mix it
with the stable manure, but on soils
chat are lacking in humus and nitro
gen better results will be obtained by
using acid phosphate, which is read
lily available to the growing crops.
With clover and manure plowed I'M
der, to liberate potash, and supple
mented with this purchased phospho-
rus, the fertility problem will be
solved on the average stock farm. On
many types of soil potash will be
needed, but the average stock farm
in the middle west has plenty of pot
ash locked up in its soil to produce
good crops for a hundred years or
more.

CHAPTER XXX.
In Reality.


Dan awoke from his dream, and sat
suddenly up in bed in his shirt sleeves.
and stared at the people in his room
a hotel boy and two strangers, not I'M
like the men in his dream. He
brushed his hand across his eyes.
Sit down, will you? Do you speak
English?"
They were foreigners, but they did
speak English, no doubt far more per
fectly than did Dan Blair
Look here, the boy said. a don't

and came out in another second, his
blond head wet, wiping his face and
hair furiously with a towel He hadn't
beamed as he did now on these two
strange mentor weeks.

Plum CurcuIio.

This beetle is the scourge of the
plum grower.
No method of fighting 1t has given
complete success.
This is so true that an old plum ex-
pert lately said "The best way to
fight it is to pasture hens in the
plum grove, $50 to the acre"
Where this plan is feasible It is a
help not to be despised, and we can.
not afford to despise any help in
fighting this formidable enemy.
There may be some kind of fowls
which shy at bugs, but the Leghorns
have the credit of good bug eaters.

in cleaning out curculio; also hogs
in the orchard do good. Cattle and
sheep also destroy the insects b.

The matter of supplying teams for a
farm of any size is one that is a mat
ter of Importance from the purely
business standpoint, as we'll as from
personal interest. There was a time
when this question was very general
for farmers who had land at all suit
able for the business to raise their
own colts to supply the deficiency
from time to time in the teams for
farm work.
1t is less so now in these days when
making a speciality of things has
reached the point that seems almost
a craze. l am old fogy enough to like
the good old ways" says writer in
the Farm Progress, and l still think
that on the great majority of farms, If
not absolutely all of them, it will pay
TO raise all the colts that may be
needed for use on the farm, and any
more that can be raised without inter
fering with the farm work.
There has not often, if ever, been a
time in the last two generations when
it did pay to raise good horses. And
now, although power vehicles and
power driven implements have Ger.
tainly taken the place of a vast num-
Der Of horses, frst-class animals are
selling at as good prices as they ever
did. Consequently, there is profit in
the business, even if at times 1t is a
little inconvenient.
The thrifty farmer will generally
make something out of every depart
ment, if possible, on the farm where
general farming is done. The amount
that can be made will depend alto.

ual to supply the executive ability

Captivating Caps.

The captivating London cap is one
'of the details which no bride should
think of emitting from her trousseau.
And it will be even more desirable IL
made to suit the personality Of its
wearer. She has only to fix on any
period or nationality that she pleases
and to modify the cap OF the epoch TO
her own pretty features.
Mob caps are a little out of date, but
some girls may prefer a dainty frilled
mob with flowers and ribbons to one
of the newer models, which are rath-
er like cottage bonnets, the hood part
made of spotted muslin, the accordion
pleated or goffered frill and curtain
being held in place by piping
through the middle and edged with
Valenciennes.
Neither gofferlngs nor pleatings,
however, are facile to redress, and
so we would command rather bon
net of point d'esprit with lace frill
and curtain, pleated band of green
or blue satin across the front, and
little group Of pink satin roses at each
ear.
