 England evidently Is trying to remain neutral, but at the same time is evidently not intending to be caught unprepared. an indication of this is & call for all members of the Royal Naval Reserves throughout Canada and the United States to report at Ottawa for service under the colorS.
 Sweden. Norway and Italy have formally declared ther neutrality and will give aid to neither side In the war unless forced to do so by conditions over which they have no con- lrol.
 An uneonfirmed report comes from Rome that Francis Joseph. Emperor of Austria Hungary has been asSasSinated by members of the Pan-Slav- onic union, but the report does not appear to gain much cred enee m England, which Is the only other source of authentic information. as communication with any of the countries act uaIly engaged Is impossible.
 The United States has been asked to take charge of the af- fairs Of the different European embassies at Paris, Berlin, St. P tersburg and Vienna and will probably do so, as Presi- dent Wilson issued an appeal 10 the people of the United States this morning urging ] them 10 be calm and declaring that the United States owes it 10 the world at large to main- tain position that will enable her to be friend to all the countries concerned in the pres ent war.
 From Victoria. B.

The Leipsic Is the larger yes scl of the two.
 One feature of the present situation is q surprise to many of the people of Europe. Rus sia, Germany and France have all had serious labor troubles of late. and the threat of huge strike has been made in all three countries in case war ever did materialize. but all these threats have been forgotten in the common danger, and Frenchman. German and Rus sian is apparently willing to of fer his life and all in the de- fense Of his native land.
 There is every probability of American cruisers being sent to Hamburg and other European ports to bring home American tourists stranded in the differ ent countries on account of their letters Of credit being dishonored. leaving them with '4ut means 10 return to this country.
 The condition in England is very much disturbed, as two strong parties exist-the one fayoring q declaration Of war by Great Britain. seeing an op- portuniiy to sweep Germany from the sea, the other. equally strong. urging that England use every means to stop the war.

FROM TUESDAYS DAILY

news of the condition of things Is Europe today Is very scarce SS a strict censorship is being maintained by every country to prevent news of the movement of its fleet or soldiers being given to the world. Judging from word received last night stating that English and Ger, man vessels had met in actual battle, the former country has either been drawn into the vortex of seething warfare, or has decided not to await dee laratiou of war. There can be no doubt however but that the fight occurred for Canadian papers had practically the same account that American papers published and got it from other sources. The only difference being that the Can adams had seven German yes Sels sunk instead of six as re- ported by the Associated Press. The lines of communication across the Atlantic are badly interrupted. and the probabili- itieS are. may be entirely sev- cred within short time. 1 The most important item that has filtered through today is that Germany this morning formally declared war on France and Is moving huge bodies of troops toward the Franco-German frontier with the intention apparently of smashing the army of that power and repeating the his- vading the country and captur- ing Paris.
 1 X second declaration by the German government was i'll the l form of an ultimatum to Bel gium giving that country twelve hours notice that Ger { many would send her troops l through Belgium to attack France. Belgium has denied Germany the right to pass her l borders and the King has so notified Germany, and the troops of that little country are being massed to prevent the in- vaSion.
 l A big force of Germans en- tered Holland at Limburg, but ] the hardy Dutch opened the ! dykes and let i'll the sea driv- ! ing the Germans back to dry ! ground in a hurry. thus repeat ing the history of the Spanish invasion hundreds of years ago. Much of the lower part of Hol-f land is inundated, many of the villages geing entirely under water. but the Dutchmen are ] apparently willing to suffer ! this inconvenience rather than allow the Germans to make battle field of their country. From Paris comes word that scout areoplanes. which have ! been lowering along the from tier. report that several col umns of German troops are rapidly approaching the bor- der evidently bent on an in- yasion of France. The pick of 1 the French army will meet them and a big battle is i'm minent.
 According to word recieyed from Tokio. Japan will take no stand in the matter, having close friends on both sides. The wire from that place states that the fleets Of Ger many and England are cOncen- trating i'll the east and clash seems c be certain. England's forces are almost twice as strong as the German in Asia tic waters. so the outcome seems to be certain.

The local Office of the U. s.
 Gable was in receipt of a long message from headquarters to- day on matters pertaining to the present war in Europe. The message stated that until fur ther notice all communication with Germany and Austria was interrupted, and in addition no messages in code or cipher would be accepted for transmits sion to any European country, and all messages to foreign countries were liable 10 delay and censorship. No messages will be received for transmits sion by wireless to any vessel in British waters. This looks though a state of war exists all over Europe including England.

hand no branch of farming will show
quicker losses than poor feeding and
management of the winter layers.
Winter layers must have a comfort.
able house, plenty of room, plenty of
sunlight and ample ventilation. Too
much care cannot be given to provid-
ing good ventilation. Cold draughts
will check the egg production and
prove detrimental to the health of the
flock.
With a good, clean and dry house
and plenty of egg-making foods, we
shall get eggs. On farms where we
can feed a variety of grain foods
and a mash once a day composed of
cut clover or alfalfa steamed or mixed
with a bran cornmeal and green cut
bone, egg production is a simple mat

foods and meat foods, keep pure wa
ter before them and keep the floors
so clean that any part may be used
for a scratching floor and you may
rest assured that you have done your
part toward securing winter eggs.
