GERMANY WILL NOT
STOP RELIEF WORK
Ambassador Gerard Tells State
Department Germans Are In
Sympathy With Re-
lief Work.

New York. Dec. 5.-The committee OF
mercy today made public the following
cablegram from James w. Gerard
American ambassador at Berlin. which
was forwarded here by the state de-
partment, at Washington:
The German government is entire
ly in sympathy with the laudable work
of the American commission for Bel
gian relief.
1.-THE naval forces cannot lawfully
seize food or neutral ships bound for
terfere with unneutral ships bound for
Holland with food from the United
States. eve if the food is destined for
Belgium. Subject to revocation. the
German government agrees to permit
unneutral ships to carry food for Bel
gium. via Dutch ports. and will guar
antee that the food will be utilized for
the purpose intended.
The German government recon-
mends, however. that as a precau-
tiOA. such u%nneutral ships shall be fur
nished with a certificate from compe-
tent American authorities, testifying
that such food carried by u%nneutral
ships, via Dutch ports, is intended for
the relief Of the Belgians and further
that the unneutral ships shall be also
provided with a pass issued by the
Germany embassy in Washington, au-
t~henticating the certificate issued by
the American government"
This official assurance, it was said
by the committee of mercy, set at rest
numerous rumors to the effect thai
American f%oodstuffs shipped into Bel
GUM to be used in feeding the starving
refugees might be seized by the Ger.
man military authorities for the com.
missary department of their troops.

at Menomonie.

Madison. The supreme court hand

ton brought to enforce trustees of
Stout Institute to proceed with the
construction of buildings for which
the legislature appropriated $225,000
Frank Pierce, a resident of Memo
monte, where the institute is located,
brought the action.
I'VE are of the opinion that the adop-
ton by the board of trustees of the
resolution of April 81, 1914, postpon-
ing the expenditure of the appropria-
ton for this building was the exercise
of reasonable discretion under the
duties imposed upon them by law and
that their action in the matter is not
subject to control by mandamus," says
Justice Siebecker in the opinion of the
court.
After the money had been appro-
priated, an agreement was entered
into between the legislature and trus-
tees deferring action. The court holds

SUPREME TRIBUNAL OF STATE.
HANDS DOWN IMPORTANT
DECISION.
FINAL DECREE is NEEDED
Rules That When Divorce is Obtained
Under 1909 Law, Year Limit Is
lnapplieabIe-Affects Many
Wisconsin People.

Madison.-The Supreme Court. in a
decision handed down, declared THAI
when couples, divorced under the 1909
divorce law, were married again after
year had expired but before the final
decree was entered by the court in
which the divorce was granted, the
marriage was null and void. 1t is be-
lieved this ruling viii affect hundreds
of marriages.
Emma Vielbaum was granted an in
terlocutory decree of divorce on Nov.
z, 1910. On Feb. Is, 1912. she married
Robert Dallmann in Milwaukee. Under
the divorce law prevailing at that time
she, could not have married even at
the expiration of the year, unless the
final decree was entered. The final
decree was not entered until March
IL, 1913, although she had been di-
vorced more than the year required
by law. On April Fl, 1913, Dalhnann
began an action for divorce, alleging
that his marriage was not valid His
wife demurred to his complaint and
the court sustained her demurrer.
Dallmann then appealed to the SUI
preme court,
According to Dallmann's attorneys
in their aurgments, this was an impor-
tant decision, as 1t will have to do
with the most sacred relations in life.
They declared it would involve cons
siderable number of persons inno-
cent people who have married after a
divorce without having final decree
entered The attorneys held that il
decision were given favoring the hus-
band, it would have the tendency to
have husbands who grew tired of their
wives resort to legal teehnicalities of
this kind to become free.

PROFIT IN CAREFUL FEEDING
Common Cows Capable Of PRODUCING
Much Larger Yield Than Secured
by Ordinary Methods.

(By T. L. HACKER, Minnesota Experi-
ment Station)
From careful investigation we find
that our common cows are capable OF
producing much larger yield than is
secured from the average common COW
in the state. During tho past decade
we have always had at the Minnesota
university farm. In the dairy herd, a
number of common cows; that is, cows
with no dairy heredity
The average yield from these com.
mon COWS. for % yearly records. is
5000 pounds of milk and 222 pounds
Of butter; which last, valued at 81
cents per pound, is equal In round
numbers to $50 for butter alone. This
average receipt per common COW il
the state is $500; which shows that
the average COW is yielding s14 less
per annum than she might easily weld
II given the same care and feed as are
given the cows at university farm.

PREVENT SCoURS IN CALVES
Infectious Disease Gains Access to the
Body OF Young Animal Soon
After its Birth.

tBy G. II. ECKLES. Missouri Experiment

One kind of scours is an infectious
disease which gains access to the body
Of the calf soon after birth through
the freshly broken navel cord. 1t usu-
ally occurs within a week and often
within 4S hours after the calf is born.
and runs its course quickly. The
symptoms are sudden, severe sickness,
sunken eyes and usually white, foul
smelling dung. II one calf has be.
come infected others are liable to con-
tract the disease and die in the same
manner. 1t is important to thoroughly
disinfect box stalls where calves are
dropped and have them well bedded
with clean straw. IT is always a good
plan to disinfect the navel cord when
the calf is born and, II there is reason
to suspect they might contract the dis.
ease, extra precautions should be
taken, such as smuggling the cord with
hot iron, which stops up the opening,
or to tie the end of the cord with
string and wrap a strip of cloth
around the calls body. A mild solu.
ton of creolin, zenoleum or carbolic
acid should be applied to the cord as
disinfectant.
