ADMIRALTY COURT i
TO SETTLE SEEING
OF TANK STEAMER
[BY LEAsED WlRE.l

HALIFAX, N. s., Oct. 1.-the
Standard Oil tank steamer Brindilla
lay at anchor here today. with the
American flag flying from her mast
while Captain Petersen, her command
er, awaited the session of the admiral
ty court that was to decide her DIS
position following her capture by q
British cruiser off New York.
Three members Of the crew were
taken ashore early today. and lodged
in the military prison. They are be-
lieved to be Germans. The Officers
and other members Of the crew are all
naturalized Americans.
When the war broke out, the Brtn-
dilla was the Washington and WAS I'M
der German register. A few weeks
ago her register was changed to
American. 1t is expected that the ar
rest of this ship will be used by the
British government as test case to
established its position In relation to
the transfer of German ships to the
American flag.
Captain Petersen refused to navi-
gate the tanker to Halifax because he
was refused permission to communi-
cate with his employers at New York.
The last part of her journey here WAS
made under two by the Car6nia be-
cause a members of the steamers
crew had tried to scuttle her.

BEST SOIL FOR RYE

Rye does not withdraw from the soil
an unusual amount of plant food. It.,
however, Is able to a greater extent
than most crops to draw its food from
the natural resources of the soil. It
does not, therefore, equally require
rich soil or application of manure or
fertilizers. This being the case, it is
often put on rather poor soil and nat
urally it leaves that soil in a very low
condition of fertility This is not, how
ever, because it has taken more nitro
gen, phosphoric and potash. ETC., than
other crops, but because 1t has taken
what is needed Of these out of a stock
already slender.

AUCTION OF ROUTES
RAISES OBJECTIONS
. BY RURAL CARRIERS
Beck Says Immediate Opera
ton of Burles0n's Proposal
Unlikely, Because of Eff
cient Work Here.

That Postmaster General Burleson
did not intend to put into operation
soon the much agitated plan Of placing
rural route deliveries on contract, but
that he spoke of it as a future posi-
bility unless the civil service depart
ment of the United States changes its
policy, is the belief of Postmaster
Beck.
The reasons can be seen in review
ing the history of rural routes, said
Mr.. Beck. In the establishment Of the
plan, the efficiency of the carriers
was not questioned as the salary was
$500 a year. AS rural service grew
and the office had salary attached
to it, the qualifications became rigid
and more educated class of men was
employed. Under the civil service
laws, however, the men who started
years ago without passing any exami-
nations or filling any qualifications.
cannot be released.
The Richmond office does not suf-
fer from this condition, according to
Richmond post office employees are
above the average in intelligence and
desire to better the service.
Mr. Beck believes that the postmas-
ter general has taken up the contract
rural service plan more to bring the
civil service department to take a
stand for the elimination Of weak
lings" from the department, than with
any intention of operating 1t in the
near future.
The announcement that Burleson
was contemplating such an action
brought a storm of protest from rural
route carriers who saw possibilities of
their salaries being cut from $1,000 q
year to $8oe or 500 q year.

LONDON, Oct. 19.-Hopes that had
been raised high by the announcement
of the British press bureau that the
Germans in France had been driven
back thirty miles were dashed today
er's troops were approaching Dunkirk.
the great fortified seaport of France
across the channel from England.
This report came in a Rotterdam
dispatch from a correspondent Of The
Daily Mail, who said:
"A message just received from a
German source reports that the Ger
mans have crossed the Belgian bord-
now only few miles from Dunkirk."
Press Bureau Silent.
1t was stated at the press bureau
port could be given, but its transmits
sion and publication were permitted.
News of the arrival Of Admiral Won
Tirpitz, head of the navy, is taken
here as confirmation of the theory
that Germany intends to make an at
tack on England as soon as practical
BILE. There are rumors that German
submarines have been transported by
rail to Belgium and that these will be
put into the waters of the channel as
soon as the Germans are in undisputed
possession of the coast. A news agen-
cy dispatch from Berlin says:
"The shortening days and the thick
ening weather on the North Sea are
steadily improving conditions for the
operation of submarines and torpedo
boats. Marine experts expect that
henceforth there will be intense &C.
tivity throughout the North Sea-"
Shell Lightship.
The Belgian lightship off Zee Brug-
&c, the port Of Bruges, has been she'll
ed by a German battery from the
shore, and the crew has been forced
to flee. This also is confirmatory Of
the belief that the German intend to
be active at the southern end OF the
North Sea.

FODDER FOR SHEEP

The average 100 pounds of sheep
will consume about four pounds of
fodder corn or millet daily. Fodder
corn is heavier producer than millet,
but from two of the latter to three or
four tons Of the former are reasonably
safe yields to expect per acre. The
amount required for generous feeding
of the flock may easily be determined
It Is better to buy the other fellows
stock in order to dispose of the feed
than to be short of feed and be forced
to sell ones stock.
