London.-A Petrograd dispatch to
the Post says:
The rapidity of the movement Of
the battlefelds in Poland has not
been eQualed since the days Of Ma
poleon. Deducting the time spent in
actual fighting, the Russian pursuit
has been pressed for more than a
week at a rate averaging fourteen
miles per day on the Polish roads,
which are very heavy after the rainy
season.
There is believed TO be no doubt
that the Germans, in their retreat.

California Shriners
Rent Entire Hotel.

Atlanta, March 19-There will
be no Kimball house in Atlanta
when the National Shriners meet
here in May! No, they are not
going to blow 1t up with dynamite.
Neither is the historic old forum
of Georgia politics going to be
destroyed by cyclone.
But the big California delegation
which is coming here several hun
dred strong and with It's hair done
in a braid, has rented the whole
hotel, lock, stock and barrel for
the entire week, and has obtained
permission to pull down the
"hlmball House" sign, and hoist
In It's stead in flaming electric let
tiers the name "Hotel California"
After the excitement is all over
and the Camels have all started
for their return journey through
the desert, the Kimball House
name will come into it's own again.
The Californians are coming
with the avowed intention of cap
turing the 1915 national convention
Iney have not only rented all the
rooms in the Kimball, but thew
have obtained rights over the BIG
ball room as well, where they will
keep open house, dispensing Cali
fornia fruits, vines and other
western delicacies.
Electricians will be sent here
three weeks in advance of the
Shrine to decorate the "Hotel
California" and during the week
OF the convention it will turn night
into day.

Missing Child Stands
In Puddle All Night

Viena, March 19-About 200
people turned out from this place
last night to hunt for the 2-year-
old child of Frank Bragg, who
lives about five miles east of here.
At daybreak this morning when
everybody had given up hope of
finding the little one, it was dis
covered standing in a shallow pool
OF water, almost frozen.
Medical attention was given it
at once, but it will be some time
before it will be known if results
will be serious. Mrs. Bragg was
dressing the child about supper
time when she was called from the
room, leaving partly dressed the
youngster to itself. The premises
were searched before help was
telephoned for from Vienna.
The mother was frantic over the
occurrence and at times almost

Prosperity of South Depends

During the last ten years our acre
yield increased but not half as much
as the increase in population. We
have all heard the old Dutch
proverb quoted before, but we
cannot quote it too often: mo grass,
no stock; no stock, no manure; no
manure, no crops" Holland is almost
entirely a grass and stock country,
and lands are worth on an average
$500 per acre. These people have
found that they can make more out
of land from grass and live stock than
they can by cultivating it.
Unnumbered acres of hill land in
the cotton belt are making less than
one-third bale of cotton per acre, and
at the same time making poverty for
those tilling them. The cost of COM
0ercial fertilizer applied annually is
t5palling. The razor-back terraces,
~~ered with weeds, grass and briars,
Ind the circles and short rows pre-
vent the use of labor-saving nipple
ments.
We are sending millions to the
northern states every year to pay for
pork products, dairy products and
beef. This money should be kept at
home and deposited in our banks un-
til they are full to overlooking and the
rate of interest lowered to, say, six
per cent, because of the abundance
OF money. Then we will have the
necessary money to build good roads,
to pay good teachers better salaries
to teach longer terms, to improve our
farms and to build comfortable homes
and put telephones and libraries in
them. Then our boys and girls will
stay on the farm, and we will behold
prosperity in every department of the
commercial world
The south has an overwhelming ad-
vantage over every other section in
live stock raising. We have great
climatic advantages that permit out

door pasturing and feeding during the
whole, or the greater part of the year.
We can obtain large yields of oats,
leguminous crops, Johnson and Ber-
muda grasses, sorghum cane hay, and
an abundance Of corn for the making
of silage, the most economic form of
carbohydrates. The keeping of good
cattle and the intelligent use of thor
oughly good permanent pastures and
grazing crops, and the economic use
of the silo and cotton seed meal will
make our lands rich, keep millions Of
dollars at home that are now sent to
the north and west, and make our
people prosperous.
In the cotton belt live stock farm
ing has been avoided mainly for two
reasons: ID Because allcotton farm
ing paid better until the soil became
poor; (2) because of the cattle tick.
Now, millions of acres are too poor
to grow cotton proftably, and we can
easily eradicate the cattle tick. Since
the work of eradicating the tick was
lnaugurated, nearly 100000 square
miles have been cleaned for all time;
this is an area over three times as
large as Alabama. The tick Injuries
the hide, reduces the milk flow at
least ten per cent, makes it very diff
1cult to fatten cattle, prevents the in
PRODUCTION of good cattle to breed up
our native cattle, lowers the price of
our cattle on the markets and de-
stroys more than enough cattle every
year to pay for it's eradication.
The days of the tick are numbered.
The last tick will be destroyed in a
few years, and then the south will
adopt a permanent system of agricul-
ture promising prosperity to present
population and to posterity.

BELFAST.
Smash Window Then Accept
Hospitality--Fishing Sloop
Franklin B. Safe

Belfast, Me-, March 3.-(SpeciaD.-
Two men, Charles Lemux, hailing from
Norway, and James Hughes of Port
land were brought to Belfast yesterday
from Brooks. where they were arrest
ed and given a hearing before Trial
Justice Fred w. Brown, Jr., yester-
day morning.
On Sunday morning just about day
light, a man living near the store of
Young & Cox, heard a noise and look
ing from his window saw two mon
breaking a window in the store. About
that time, Mr.. Cox, one of the propri-
etors, drove down the street, got out
and entered the store. He was going
fishing, which accounted for his early
arrival on Sunday morning. Soon after
he entered his store, the two men came
in and he very cordially gave them
some crackers and cheese, treated
them well not suspecting that they
had been trying to enter his store. and
they went off down the road towards
Belfast.
Mr.. Holbrook, the neighbor, then put
in an appearance and told Mr.. Cox
what he had seen and heard. The two
men were caught and brought back to
Brooks, with the result that they are
now in the Waldo county Jail. where
they will await the April term, under
bonds of $500 each. They pleaded not
guilty. Lemux was released from the
county jail Feb. 1. having served time
for vagrancy. He said that he had
since been at work In the, shoe factory
and on Saturday took trip to Water
vile, He got somc booze and started
back, arriving in Burnham too late to
get the train back to Belfast. Starting
to walk he met Hughes on the way
and they Joined forces. They absolutely
