CABLES TO GERMANY ARE CUT

Germany IL Now Practically Iso-
lated from the Outside World
Cables Are Cut East of
Azores.

NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-Direct cable
communication with Germany was
stopped today. The German Atlantic
cable lines from New York to Emden
via the Azores were cut about 1:S0 a. m.
at some point east of the Azores, possibly
by British warships. The Commercial
Cable company, which operates the Amer
lean end of this line. made the announce
ment of the cutting today and refused to
accept messages for Germany. 1t was
denied that the lines had been GU. oy
British wsrshps on this side of the At
lantic. The cable was working accord
ing to announcement, as far as the
Azores.
Charles P. Adams, second vice president
of the Postal Cable company said
there was no trouble with the regular
Commercial Gable company's lines. which
run from New York to Nova Scotia, and
thence to points on the English coast.
Communication with England over these
lines was still being maintained. No hope
was held out, however, for any immediate
restoration of communication with Ger
many over the direct lines.

Before the kaiser, ranged in a

the divisions of the German empire.
His majesty was dressed in the
gray uniform of general of his

held a field marshal's baton. He
spoke theoretically, but With Wis

The purport of the address was
that Germany had been forced into
war.
Leaders Pledge Loyalty.
At the close of his address the
kaiser stepped down from his throne
and addressing the deputies, said
with great feeling:
you have read what said to my
people the other day from the bal

"In order to testify that you are
firmly resolved without distinction OF
party to stand by my side through
danger and death, l call upon the
leaders of the different parties in
this house to come forward and lay
their hands in mine as a pledge"
The great marble han rang with
cheers as the leaders Of the various
parties obeyed the kaiser's bidding
In the brief interval OF silence that
followed, it was noticeable that the
emperor felt fully the gravity and
Significance of the occasion.

TEMPERATURE FOR CHURNlNG
Expert Of Idaho Experiment Station
Gives Three Important Factors
In Art of Making Butter.

(By G. e. FREVORT. Dairyman. Idaho
Experiment Station.)
The temperature at which cream
should be churned should be de-
termined by trial churning at
about 81 degrees F. If the butter
comes quickly and is soft. churn at
a lower temperature next time II 1t
comes firm and requires long time
to churn a higher temperature should
be used next time.
The churning temperature will be
effected by the following factors:
l. The hardness OF softness of the
butter fat. Feed. breed and individ'
uality determine hardness or softness
of butter fat.
2. Amount OF ripening Sour cream
may be churned at a higher tempera
ture- than sweet cream.
g. Temperature cream was held a.
previous to churning. High tempera
ture in ripening and holding requires
lower temperature in churning.

DAIRY CATTLE PERFORMANCE
High Records Are Found Among All
Prominent Breeds and They Arc
Increasing In Number.

When a COW will produce twenty
times her own weight in milk In a
year. she may certainly be regarded
as a valuable piece OF property. When
a COW will produce 500 to 1000 pounds
Of butter fat In year, she is prize.
Such records as these are found
among all the prominent dairy breeds
and they are increasing in number In
each breed at most satisfactory
rate. Just now there Is competi-
ton for the championship in milk
and butter production in the Guern-
sey breed. The championship Of that
breed is held by Spotswood Daisy

means to improve her record. while

Dairy improvements

Remarkable records have been made
by dairy cows during the past few
years. Not only have breeders devel-
oped wonderful COWS but they have
raised the average standard OF the
various breeds and added to their
beauty and adaptability.
Many additions have been made
each year to the already long lists OF
advanced registry dairy cows. and in
the case of the Holstein. Jersey and
Guernsey breeds many cows have
been developed which show the way
to future progress.
While the leading breeders of dairy
cattle are working hard 70 raise the
average OF their animals. the dairy.
men should work still harder to raise
the average yields of their herds. for
they are the ones who should ulti
mately derive the most benefit from
this improved blood.

NATIONALIST ARMY GROWING.
Volunteers Estimated at From Eighty
Thousand to Quarter of Million.

Dublin.-Estimates of the number
of the Irish Nationalist volunteers
vary between $4,000. which is the Dub
lin Castle figure compiled by the po-
lice, and quarter of a million, which
is the estimate given in platform
speeches. Careful inquiry shows that
there are $4,000 in Leinter, which takes
the lead; about 1000 in Ulster Tin
creasing rapidly, $4,000 in Munster
and $4,000 in Connaught
The difficulty of exact estimate
arises from the fact that the move
ment is not organized from the cen
ter. Forces have sprung up spontan-
eously in every parish, and SO far are
only loosely connected with the pro-
visional central body. There has been
complete wiping out of all class dis
tinctions, and the rank and file in
clude every grade-farmers, laborSfs
shop assistants, clerks, doctors, law
yers and country gentlemen. There Is
