BERLIN, Nov. 22.-The Kaiser is

been the outcome Of the Prussian au-
thorities forbidding the discoverer of
the South Pole, Roald Amundsen. to
speak in his native Norwegian Ian
guage in the city Of Flensborg, in
Northern Schleswig, where it was
feared that the sound of lecture in a
language so closely resembling the
forbidden Danish might stir up dan
gerous fire of enthusiasm in the hearts
of the Danish speaking German sub
jects in the town.
So the Kaiser and Germany have
been made the subjects of number
of very calling cartoons in the Sean

For a quarter Of q century the
great problems Of msnufscsusinx
and Of transportation have been
handled upon the advice Of ex-
perts-men whose accurate and
scientific knowledge extends to- the
minutest points
In the psst few yesfs able men
have realized that farming could
be put upon the same bssis-thst
instead of being of necessity q
hsphszsrd enterprise, it IS one oi
the most scientific businesses in
the world-thzt il may be as sc-
curste and as reliable as those
processes Of nature upon which it
depends.
Ii has been realized also, that
the principles of cooperation
which have worked out such great
things in the industrial world,
may be used with equal effective
ness in the realm of agriculture.
To aid in the rapid spread of
these ideas and principles seems to
me TO be a most useful and noble
work, and one in which | would
gladly have a part in Kentucky.
With this thought, / have de-
cided to give an old-fashioned bar
becue at my home in Woodford
county, near Versailles, O
Wednesday, August Goth. 1t will
be my aim to have matters along
the lines 1 have indicated discussed
by some of the great agricultural
experts of the country, and it will
be my hope that this may give
fresh impetus to the work in Ken
tucky by the farmers which is
already so well begun.
Every farmer and every farmers
wife, and everyone interested in
better farming in the State, who
feels an interest in increasing the
rewards of agriculture. and in
bettering the conditions of farm
life. is most cordially and urgent
ly invited to be my guest on Au-
gust Doth. This invitation is given
in the spirit of good fellowship,
and the desire to help, and all'who
accept it will be most warmly
welcomed. Very sincerely,
