London, April 6.--Dashing through q
heavy sea with incredible speed,
giant submarine torpedoed and sunk the
British steamer Northlands off Beachy
Head yesterday, landed at Deal to-
day by Belgian steamer some mem
bers of the crew Of the Northlands
expressed the belief that the submarine
which attacked them was famous
U.l2. Others were convinced that IL
was an mdersea raider of newer and
even more powerful type,
On the heels of the news of the sink
ing Of the Northlands came word from
Blythe Of the torpedoing of another
trawler by the submarine operating in
the North sea. The 10 members Of the
crew of the trawler Alantha landed at
Blythe, told Of the sinking Of their
vessel which made brave attempt to
escape the German but was run down
and scut TO the bottom.
The Northlands crew Of "a men
brought to Deal told very thrilling
story of the chase that preceded tho
tOrpedoing Of the vessel. A gale was
blowing and the high sea caused even

she dashed through the water. The
submarine could be seen gradually
gaining, cutting through the waves with
amazing speed, and despite the handi-
cap Of rough weather, came alongside
within few minutes,
"Abandon your ship" was tho
sharp command from tho submarine,
members Of the crew declared Boats
were lowered and within five minutes,
while the crew was still rowing within
100 yards Of the Northlands, torpedo
struck her amidships and terrific ex-
plOsion nearly broke tho vessel in two.
"At the same instant" said the sail
ors, "the whistle Of the Northiands
mystcriously broke out with wailing
shricl, which continued until tho
waves engulfed her II was deyilishly
uncanny"
The Northlands carried cargo Of
iron ore aud sank quickly. The sub.
marine hurried away when il was
evident her torpedo had done It's work.
The crew Of the Northlands was Of
ferod no assistance and drifted for
seven hours before being picked up.

Studying Farming Systems

Three parties of men, each in
charge of a farm management spe-
cialist, are studying systems of
farming in different parts of the
state of Vermont. This work is
done under the auspices of the
County Farmers Associations of Or
leans, Rutland and Windsor coun-
ties, cooperating with the federal
department of Agriculture and the
extension service of the College of
Agriculture of the State University
An inventory of the farming bust
ness for 1914 will be taken on about
300 farms, and acreages and crop
yields will be noted, as we'll as the
years farm receipts and eXpendi-
lures. All information secured is
absolutely confidential and has no
relation in any way to taxation.
After the records have been TAX
en-, they will be worked up by the
men who took them, summarized,
and averaged in order to determine
which systems of farming pay best
and why; for 1t is believed that in
every community the most prof1ta-
BILE systems of farming have been
discovered and gradually worked
out by the better farmers as the re-
suit of many years of experience.
Summaries and averages of the in
formation secured will be made
available to all those who desire
it.
Each individual farmers record
will be returned to him, accompa-
MED by a letter explaining how the
farm business was figured and show
ing how his farm business COM
pares with the averages of all, and
with the average of the best farms
found. Later an opportunity will
be given each farmer. il he desires
to do SO, to discuss the problems of
his own farm business with the farm
management extension agent, whose
work in Vermont is done in COOP
Grafton between the federal depart
ment of agriculture and the College
of Agriculture of the University of
Vermont. No charge is made for
this work, since it is supported by
state and federal funds.
