The Austrian Victory
An Empty Shell.

The capture of the city of Belgrade
by the Austrians after almost contin-
nous bombardment since early in Au-
gust is an empty victory, for the city
had been evacuated by the Servians
and, according to report, the siege
has resulted in reducing it practically
to ruins. But 1t will have a tendency
to aearten the Austrian troops who
have suffered reverse after reverse, not
only at the hands OF Austria but by
the Servians and Montenegrins Aus
tria has made a poor showing through
out and it is surprising that the forces
of Franz Joseph did not take the Ser
Wan capital sooner.
Germany depended upon Austria to
protect the East Prussian frontier
from invasion by the Russians, but
it was like leaning on a rotten
stick. Germany has had to do most Of
the fighting and, if any material sue
cesses are won in battles with the al
lies. Germany must win them
But the slight success which Aus
tria has achieved in the fight against
Servia will avail nothing for sooner or
later, with the vast Russian hordes
sweeping across the Carpathians,
threatening Hungary as well as era
cow and GaIicia, all the resources of
the Austrian empire must be marshall
ed to withstand the shock. She can
not hold Servia, or even the Servian
capital under existing conditions, and
unless the onward march of the Rus
SLAMS Is checked it will be but a short
Vienna.
Discussing the future of the dual
monarchy, Ellis Barker, a noted Eng
lish writer says:
''The war, as far as the land cam
paign Is concerned may end in three
different ways, 1t may end in the
victory of Germany and of Austria
Hungary. it may lead to the exhaus-
ton OF the land powers engaged in it,
and may thus remain undecided, or r
and Austria Hungary. In each of these
eventualities, the question as to the
position and future of the dual mon
archy will be of the very greatest In
terest and Importance not only to all
Europe but to the world"
But whatever the outcome the inde-
pendence OF Austria is a thing of the
past She is a German vassal pure
and simple, and German vassal she
must remain unless. at the conclusion |
of a successful war, the allies see ut |
to declare her standing among the |
powers OF the world.

 The Rothschilds have remained an absolutely united family, as witness their extraordinary series of mar riages between first and second cous- jns unparalleled outside few royal families. It has also been their policy whether they were Austrian, French or English-to play more or less into each others hands in their financial operations. But so far as the financing of this war is concern ed this is no longer possible. As a financier an Austrian Rothschild rnust know nothing of an English Rothschild. As head of the British people, King George takes no count 0. the German emperor, though they are first cousins. So with those who are princes in the realms of high finance.

Even Lord Rothschild': great uncle James, who founded the French Rothschilds, was in Paris secretly collecting French coin to forward to Wellington for his ad y.nce in Southern France just before Napoleon's first publication.
 Since these days other Germanic families have initiated the Rothsch ilds with great success, and establish ed branches working together ill the leac;ng capitals Of the world. It is probable that a war between EngsaEG and Germany never entered into their calculations, and certainly the man In the street may accept it as fact that tic last thing in the world that they as financiers would desire would be an Anglo-German war.

WoRk COTTON INTO
 CHRISTMAS PRESENTS
Consumption of Staple Can Be In. creased by Using Cotton Goods
 for Presents.

Many of our women readers are al- ready thinking of Christmas presents and not few of them already work ing upon them. To all such and to others who are bound to take the mat ter up later here. is a suggestion:
 Make presents of cotton material!
 How we do wish we knew all about all the presents into which cotton could enter, but We don't. About all we do know is that cotton enters into handkerchiefs, and that, in hay-fever time, they don't make the handker- chiefs big enough, by several yards, in width and length. And we're go- ing to give the good women some mas culine secrets as to handkerchiefs.
 A man usually looks on silk hand kerchief as an abOmination, or a fraud. If he has full faith that it's all silk. he wears it around his neck or in his pocket 'as luxury or an ornament. But in about nine cases out of ten. he feels sure it is not all silk. and suspects that the donor sent it in order to get off cheaply, while in a half-dozen of cotton handker- chiefs. or mostly cotton, he would have found cause for gratitude and rejoicing. Really, ladies, all men prefer things that are of practical ev- eryday use, and they preserve high CT opinion of donors of such things And what does a fellow usually get? he has four pairs.

JOBS AROUND the
FARM IN WINTER
Best Time of Year to Move and
Transplant Trees-Many
Other Excellent Hints.

Keep the horses sharp shod when
the ground is icy. If you do not. they
are apt to slip and strain themselves,
perhaps permanently.
Winter is the very best time of the
year to move and transplant large
shade trees. Take them I'D with a
large ball of frozen soil which holds
without injury large number OF feed
ing roots.
Drag down stalks and tall weeds in
winter when the ground is frozen or
dry. In this condition they win catch
the SHOWS and rains, become rotten,
make blowing easier and sooner be-
come available plant food when turned
under.
On hilly land inclined to wash,
watch the soil during winter and fill
depressions and gullies with stalks,
straw and any rubbish that will hold
the soil and catch any that may be
washed in from roads and adjacent
fields.
A good tool to cut turf around trees
and along borders of walks can be
made from an old hoe. Bend the
shank out straight and sharpen from
both sides
Colts ought to be halter broken now
and by spring they ought to be used
to the bride and the backband.
If you cannot afford to build an ex-
pensive hoghouse, take ten-foot
boards and nail them to a stout
frame made in the shape of peaked
roof Cover these with long straw
and batten them down with strips
running crosswise. The boards should
run from the peak downward and
the straw should be laid the same
way in order to carry Off water. A
window for light and ventilation
should be put in one end and self
closing door in the other.
cheap and effective protection for
young and tender vines can be made
by taking small wooden boxes of any
kind, knocking Off both ends and tack
ink a piece Of cheesecloth over one
Press the box down tightly over the
plant SO that the bugs cannot get un-
der, The cheesecloth will filter the
llgnt just enough 10 give the plant
good start.
One Of the handiest things about a
farm is a cart made from the wheels
Of an old buggy on which is mounted
light frame, constructed to hold hay
or other light material. a pair of
handshafts can be attached and these
should be supported by stick hinged

RIGHT CONDITION
BEFORE LANDING
important That Breeding Ewes
Be Put Under Careful Sur
veilance Few Weeks.

Both before and after Landing is an
anxious time for the sheep raiser as
he stands to lose considerable or to
lose a great deal. The next month or
two are important ones.
Much is written about the treatment
of ewes after lambing and too little is
said about giving them extra care be-
forehand.
If the ewes are thin and weak the
lambs always make a bad start, but if
the milk is deficient both in quantity
and quality, they are badly nourished.
If only one is to be raised it may sue
coed better than twins, but even a
single lamb will have a hard time of
it if the eve is poor.
| know there is danger in having
some kinds Of stock too fat at the time
of producing their young, but very few
ewes suffer from that Indeed, the
danger is that they may be too thin.
and especially is this true if the win
ter has been unusually severe.
1t is most undesirable to have the
strength of the eve impaired at this
time, as strength is needed to lamb
successfully and condition is wanted
to provide amply for the lambs. For
this reason it would be we'll to put
the breeding ewes under careful sur
veilance for a few weeks before lamb
ing.
A heavy coat of wool may give them
a fat appearance, but If the bones are
prominent it is not a good sign. Extra
care and superior food daily is neces-
sary il one would be quite sure the
ewes are in proper condition.
It is much cheaper and more salts
factory to do this than to make great
efforts to improve them afterwards

DETERMINING AGE
OF YOUNG CATTLE
Time of Appearance of |ncisors
Varies Within Narrow Limits
MoIarS Don't Count.

(By G. f. MORTON, Colorado Agricul-
tural College,
The calf when born has two pair of
incisors, the other two pair appear
during the first month. When q calf
is eighteen months old it loses the
middle pair of milk incsors, and
grows a permanent pair. The next
pair. one on each side, is replaced at
twenty-seven months of age, the third
pair at thirty-six months, the fourth
or outside pair at forty-five months.
The time of appearance of these in
cisors varies within rather narrow
limits, so that we are able to tell the
age of young cattle fairly accurately.
The calf also has a temporary set of
molars, which are later replaced with
permanent ones, but they are not con-
sidered in estimating the age of the
animal.

Begin to work the horses carefully
in the springtime. They have been
standing around until their muscles
are all soft and TO get right down to
hard work all at once mag make them
sick. Feed carefully, too, for a few
days. Better underfeed them than to
give them too much on the start.
Some of the curry-combs and
brushes used on some of the farms of
this country are sight to behold.
Better throw them over the fence and
get new ones. The cost is slight and
you will do great deal better job.
Think how much better the horses
will feel about it, too
Harness is high this spring, as we'll
as all other kinds of leather goods, yet
1t is better to buy new than to run
the risk of runaway. If you really
think you cannot afford a new one
take the harness to some good man
and have every weak piece made good.
That will tide you over until you can
do better.
