Herman Ridder, editor of the New
York Statts-Zeitung. the most influen-
tial German newspaper in the United
States, discussing the European war
from the German viewpoint, says in
part in his article today:
Should the Germans make deter
mined effort to capture Antwerp, the
great Belgian seaport, the English for
the first time since the days of Ma
poleon, will see danger across the
English channel.
"A fleet Of dirigibles. operating from
Antwerp, could do more than frighten
England in her security. BY co-operat-
ing with torpedo and submarine at
tacks, the airships could make life mis-
cradle for the English navy. More
over, England would not be so enthu-
siastic about sending her troops to
France if the Germans held the Bel
gian coast. Germany might overlook
France entirely and strike hard at the
English coast. The enthusiasm OF
John Bull for this war would expert
ence a sudden chill If the Germans
were to launch a bold and most un-
expected attack against the English
coast
Germans Outwit Allies.
"The progress Of the German army
in Europe continues with clock-like
regularity. The German army advanc-
ing through Belgium apparently Is
pressing back with irresistible force
the six French and three English corps
that are cooperating with the Bel.
gians Beyond Liege no serious re-
sistance has been met. Whether the
allies will risk a battle on the historic
field of Waterloo, is problematical. 1t
it more probable that the first great
battle will be fought around Namur.

Question Box

Question-Give an outline of diet.
AnsWer-Can't answer because
there is no diet that will fit every
body. Each individual case needs Its
own peculiar diet.
Question-What is the cause of
diseased tonsils and is there any other
remedy than operation?
Answer-There are several causes.
Usually it Is a germ that gets into
the loose tissue of the tonsil that
brings on the inflammation. When a
child is past fourteen a diseased tonsil
should be removed but not before that
time. A good remedy for tousils is to
put three hot lamentations over the
throat, to be followed by cold COM
press left on all night. Do that three
nights a week. Gargle with peroxide
of hydrogen two or three times a week
and with salt water every night.

REFUSAL OF PEACE
| PLEA CRUSHES Plus
Pope Mourned Over Action
of Francis Joseph in
ScOrning Messenger.

ROME, Aug. 20.-The scornful ra,
ception of a peace messenger in the
Austrian capital was the last blow that
broke the heart of Pope Plus. From
the very outset the Pope had tried to
avert hostilities between Austria and
Servia, and he finally sent q personal
letter to Emperor Francis Joseph beg
ging him not to permit war.
The bearer of the message, Baron
Scapinelli, was refused an audience by
the Emperor for ten days, and when
he was finally received, it was too late,
war had been declared. One of the last
acts of the pope is further evidence of
his kind heart. Although the war had
reduced the -Vatican's income until
there was barely enough to meet cur
rent expenses, he ordered the payment
of all pensions and also the continu-
ance Of several undertakings aimed to
give work to the unemployed during
the conflicts.
Thousands of candidates for the
priesthood have been compelled to
abandon studies to take up the sword.
This fact, too, had weighed heavily on
his mind. +.

German Cooperative Elevator.

will tell you that cooperation natu-
rally begins with cooperative credit.
rather than with cooperative market
ing. 1t does not necessarily follow.
however, that in America cooperative
credit associations should precede CO.
operative marketing. Conditions in
Germany differ greatly from those in
the United States
In the first place, the privately
owned banking houses of Germany did
not serve the German farmer even as
adequately as the American banker Is
now serving the American farmer.
In the second place, marketing in
Germany presents practically none Of
the difficulties encountered in Amer
lea. Germany has by high tariffs forced
the consumer to depend upon domes-
tic production. The local demand for
almost every farm product exceeds the
supply. AS a result there are two
buyers demanding butter, for example,
when only enough butter for one is
available.
There are no long hauls, as in Amer
lea, no long distance commission busi-
ness. The producer more nearly meets
the consumer face to face and gets his
price. German marketing as compared
to American is direct, simple, and free
from complexities.
We must take the counsel of the
German who ranks cooperative credit
as more important than cooperative
marketing with caution, since he has
dealt with reversed conditions. We
are firmly convinced, after careful
survey, that at least in America, tho
more prosperous scheme Of co-opeya-
tive marketing is more important than
cooperative credit

clover-hay or alfalfa, cut into short
lengths, is a good green food. The
hens will eat them dry, but relish
them much better if steamed. To
steam, cut into short pieces and pack
in a tub or bucket, pour as much boil
ing water over them as they will abb
sorb, and cover tightly for thirty min
utes before feeding. 1t may be fed
either by itself or mixed with a mash.
Sprouted oats are good green
food To prepare them, soak the oats
in warm water for "a hours, then
spread In shallow boxes and keep In
a warm place. Keep them moist by
sprinkling with warm water and they
will soon begin to sprout.

FALSE ECONOMY IN FEEDING
Big Mistake Made In Cutting Down
Amount of Grain Fed to Fatten-
ing Animals During Winter.

Farmers and feeders make a great
mistake when they cut down on the
amount OF grain food that they feed
their fattening animals during the
winter There may be some animals
on the farm which can be carried
along through the winter on moderate
rations, but fattening stock and dairy
cows do not belong to that class.
The farm teams that are not being
worked do not require a full ration
of grain food during the winter but it
is costly economy to rough" them
during the winter on short rations.
The horse that is allowed to run down
in flesh condition during the winter
cannot do as efficient service during
the springs work as he could il he
were fed we'll during the winter. No
man ever made money feeding live
stock just enough to keep them alive.
In feeding fattening stock and dairy
cows, gain and profit come in proper
ton to the amount of food the ami
mails put to good use. The fattening
animals and dairy COWS should have
no setbacks; and the best feeders are
the ones who know when to feed high
priced grains and are not afraid to
feed full rations

FARM
ANIMALS
NOTES FOR SWINE BREEDERS
Excellent Ration for sows Sucking
Pigs Is Found In Bran and Shorts
Corn Causes Thumps.

Shorts and bran make an excellent
ration for sows that are sucking pigs.
OF course they should always have
clover or cowpea pasture If possible.
1t Is bad policy to wean young pigs
suddenly and put them on cows
skinned milk. The milk should be
fed them very gradually at first and
several times day.
Once more we want to urge farmers
not to feed too much corn to their
young pigs, as thumps will surely
result
The best way to market corn is to
first put it through the silo and then
sell it in the shape of fat animals.
Corn meal and skim milk will make
greater gain in feeding hogs than any
thing else.
1t is easier to insist on the other
man carrying out our best ideas than
it is to do the little things ourselves,
but we can all do much better than
we do If we take an interest in our
work and keep close watch Of every
little detail that will promote the COM
fort of our animals. 1t is the COM
Portable animal that makes the best
gains every time.
Do not be afraid to give the fall
pigs plenty of range during the fall
and winter time, providing that they
have comfortable feeding yard and
a good, warm sleeping place.
Go slow on feeding new corn, better
hold over a supply Of old corn and
gradually get them accustomed to the
new corn before feeding them full
rations.
A good SOW should not be bred
until she is reasonably we'll ma
tured and generally a safe rule to
follow is to let her be at least a
year old when she farrows her first
litter.

CATTLE BROUGHT IN BY DOG
WeIl-Trained Animal viii Save Owner
Many Steps, While Poor One VIII
Do Untold Mischief.

If dog is used in driving the cattle,
insist that it walk at their heels in
stead of their heads; and that 1t walk,
not trot. A poor dog will do untold
mischief, and that very quickly; one
properly trained will save many steps.
The cattle are as quick about sizing
up the driving qualities of the dog
as is the small boy in testing the
mettle Of the young teacher. If they
find that they can drive it, the canine
will have sorry time Of 1t. Better
watch carefully that the pup keeps
its place and becomes master Of the
situation, even though you are com
PEELED to defend its rights. After the
proper relations are accepted on both
sides there will be little further
trouble.

WhItewash the Stables.

Although whitewash is not an active
disinfectant, In the usual meaning OF
the term, 1t is an excellent purifier
and should in all cases be used in
stables after they have been thorough
ly cleansed and disinfected with other
agents. Hot whitewash for this pur.
pose Is better than cold. II chloride
Of lime is added to whitewash In the
proportion of four ounces to the gal
lon, the value Of this application is
greatly increased. 1t Is advisable to
whitewash COW stables frequently at
least once in six months, and, better.
every three months where diseased
animals have been kept.

of supplying this.

audit which leads to good accounting
systems and good business methods
The central office serves as bureau
of information and advice. In case OF
marketing the central society, by rea-
son of its size and financial resources,
gets into markets which would be al
together inaccessible to the little To-
cal concern. Without Capitalization
German cooperation would be much
less effective than it is.
Increased Quantity.
Here in Germany, as elsewhere, CO..
operation has not only enabled the
farmer to make the most out of what
he produces, but has increased the
quantity and improved the quality of
the product itself. This has been true
in every line where cooperative or
CARNATIONS have become active. Tho
results in dairying are fairly repre-
sentative. In Bradenburg tests were
made in 1908 which covered the pro-
duction Of over 1000 cows. The av-
erage yield of milk per COW was found
to be 2,661 kilograms, producing So kill
ograms of butter, and netting profit
of 108.06 marks per COW. In 1910 the
average yield had increased to 1855
Kilograms of milk, producing 1O1 kilo,
grams of butter, and netting 1885
marks profit for each COW, an increase
of 24.59 marks per COW, a matter Of
$4,000 on the 1000 COWS.
German Cooperation Democratic.
German cooperation is, to para
phrase the recognized formula for
democracy "of the members, by the
members, and for the members. No
body thinks of German cooperative
society as organized for the purpose
of declaring dividends. The utmost
returns that those who hold shares
receive is five or six per cent. profit.
If creamery, for example, finds it.
self with undivided profits it does not
distribute them to the members in pro-
portion to the shares they hold but
to the members who as patrons bring
in the milk and cream, and they go to
them in proportion to the quantity and
quality furnished by each. These
tional price, which the patrons receive
for their product. All, too, are man.
aged upon the "one man one vote"
plan. The member who holds only one
share and brings in the milk of only
one COW has the same voting power as
the farmer with thousand shares and
thousand COWS. Cooperation is most
emphatically democratic
Good Quality and Good Business.
German cooperators themselves
largely to good quality and good bust
ness methods. The societies pride
themselves upon the fact that their
output is better than that of privately
owned plants. Their goods are in de-
mand, they say, not because they are
cooperative goods, but because they
are good goods. The societies almost
without exception have required that
managers shall be skilled men with
both experience and training. These
positions pay good salaries, and can
didates spend time and money quail
flying themselves to hold them. AS
a result these concerns are most bust
nesslike in every particular. The
plants are efficient, the employers
competent, and most excellent ae-
counting systems are In vogue.
Cooperative Credit.
1t is noticeable that in Germany
there are more cooperative credit So
cieties than marketing societies. More
over, the average German enthusiast

chunks and feed to the hens. They
will eat both the sprouts and the oats
and are very fond of them.
Another way of furnishing green
food is to feed vegetables. Turnips,
beets and mangles should be cut in
halves and fed raw.
Cabbage heads should be hung up
where the hens can pick them. Civ
ing the hens regularly any one of
these green foods will make notice
able gain in the production of eggs.

put through the loop. To unite you
pull the knot through the hole or
ring.
A simple tie where horses are hitch
ed to a wagon is to put the double
lines through a ring on the stake
and put the loose ends through the
loop made. Then little pull on the
end of the lines loosens everything.

Care of Drv Cows.

Dry cows. coming fresh in the
spring, need just as good feed and
care as If in full milk. but the food
need not consist of much grain. Mixed
hay. fodder and straw, with two to
four quarts of wheat bran. given to
each daily, will keep them in thrifty
condition.
