FORD SHIP ARRIVES
AT SWEDISH PORT
No Reception Accorded Party at
Christiansand 49, Rumor of
DISAGREEMENT Confirmed.

London, Dec. 19.-The steamship
Oscar II. with the Ford peace party
on board, arrived at Christiansand,
Sweden, az $3.50 o'clock yesterday al
ternoon, according to a dispatch from
Christiania 10 Reuters Telegram Com
pany. No reception was accorded the
peace party and only newspaper men
boarded the vessel on its arrival.
Henry Ford and Madame Rosika
Schwimmer denied 70 interviewers
that there had been a disagreement en-
route. II was said that some members
of the expedition would leave the
party at Christiania on account OF
sickness. Journalists who accom-
panied the party confirmed the story
that 4 disagreement had occurred.
Mr.. Ford spoke very cautiously on
the manner in which he planned 10 pro-
coed. He said the British officials and
but that none of the party was per-
mitted TO land there, and that there
was no official reception. Mr.. Ford
left the impression that at Kirkwall
the people wished peace, and h.. ex-
pressed the belief that this was also
the case with the people of the other
belligerent countries. He thought that
the basis for peace must be a return
10 the conditions existing previous TO
the war. Nine. Schwimmer said that
the intention Of the expedition was 70
agitate for peace at a conference with
men and women delegates from neutral
countries. The platform, she explained,
must be suited 10 the circumstances.
The Oscar II sailed for Christiania
after a stay of an hour at Christian
sand.

J. LUDDY SECRETLY

Just Smiles When Anxious
Mates on the New York Plan
Short Rations-for Him.

Everything is in shipshape aboard
the super-dreadnought New York for
the big Christmas party TO be given
by the bluejackets to the hundred
neediest children they can find in the
city. There is only one thing worry
ing the committee and that is the
chimney down which it is hoped Sec
ond-Class Boatswain's Mate Luddy will
come, clad in the combination attire of
Father Neptune and Kris Kringle.
A delegation of seamen whose idea
it was TO sacrifice tobacco, silk ban
danas and other necessities that the
sound of children's laughter might be
heard in the grim ship on Christmas
Day surveyed the handsomely dec

afternoon.
"What! Jimmy Luddy get down
that" they scoffed Better reduce
his boilers. Give him nothing for his
belly till Christmas" But Jimmy only
smiled, for he had tried the chimney
and found that by the simple expe-
dent of exhaling he could slip through
quite comfortably.
The ships library, in which the cele-
bration is to take place, has been
stripped Of its furnishings and has
taken on the appearance of the den of
old St. Nicholas himself. After a
month Of secret preparation the COM
mittee opened the doors to the crew
on Friday, and all the men fled in to
view the result of their capitulation to
the spirit of Christmas. Not until the
afternoon of December 20 will the
doors be opened again, for the last Of
the presents were brought yesterday.
A final review of the Christmas tree,
the decorations and the presents in ar

BRITISH PLAN LOTTERY
TO RAISE WAR LOAN
rBr c.bl. 20 N. rLbuas J


London, Dec. ls.-Among the
schemes put forth to aid in financing
the war is a proposal for British
lottery.
Not since the days Of the suel
Canal financing and of the first
French Panama Canal Company
have lotteries been high in public
favor. The immense sums of money
lost in these ventures seemed to
curb the gambling spirit Of the peo-
pie.
The lottery scheme finds consider
able support in the press, the plan
generally favored being the issue of
a 5 per cent bond, of which 2 per
cent is retained by the government
for seml-annual distribution by lot
of prizes ranging from $4,000
downward.

PANAMA CANAL TO REOPEN
Ships of Light Draft Will Pass
Through To-day.

Panama, Dec. 1s.-The Panama
Canal, which has been closed since
September Is by the worst slide in its
history, will be opened again for the
passage of vessels drawing less than
twenty feet of water tomorrow, when
ten ships, three from the Atlantic end
and seven from the Pacific end, are 10
20 through.
Exceptional progress, aided by good
weather conditions, made during the
last thirty-six hours, enabled the canal
engineers and dredge men to upset the
prediction that the canal would not
again be opened to traffic before next
spring. Providing that no further
earth slides occur, the canal will be
ready for the transit of vessels of all
drafts shortly after the first of the
year.

DEVELOPING THE YOUNG COW
To Establish Long Milking Propensity
pairyman Must Be Persistent
in Milking Heifer.

If you wish to establish a long milk
ing propensity you must be persistent
in milking the heifer after her first
calf 1t is then that the habit Of
long or short milking period is formed.
Dry her up at seven or eight months,
and it is difficult ever after to get her
TO milk for 10 months. For this rea-
son keep on milking her for 10 or II
months, no matter how little milk you
may get. This is the Danish method
of making large and persistent milk
ers, and it is the only practical way.
To obtain gentle COWS there is nothing
like raising them yourself. The COW
seems to partake of the disposition of
her keeper. No dairyman can afford
TO have a man in his stable who is
rough and quick tempered. A COW
that is abused will not give much
milk. If the heifer is thrifty and we'll
developed she may be served when Is
months of age, and will then drop her
first calf when two and quarter
years old. If served much beyond this
period she is apt to acquire the habit
of putting her food into fiesh-and not
into milk. 1t is we'll to delay the com
ing of the second calf for the few
months longer than is usual in the ma
ture COW. This gives the young COW
a better chance to develop as there is
not the extra tax on her during the
heaviest flow Of milk
The Danish and North Holland
dairymen lay great stress on the i'm
portance Of manipulating the udder,
teats and milk veins This consists
of rubbing the udder with the hands
and the milk veins under the stomach
once or twice a week from calfhood
up to the time she drops her first calf
This handling enlarges and lengthens
the teats and gives greater capacity
to the udder The young heifer so
handled becomes very docile and
when she calves she will allow you to
gently rub her udder and draw the
milk. The heifer's udder a few days
after calving is swollen and infamed
and often painful The young COW
is nervous and excited. Let the calf
remain with the COW, and after the
calf has sucked gently milk her out
clean. The relief thus given will quiet
her and she will not offer to kick The
kicking COW is not born; she is made
SO by the milk. We have for num-
Der Of years followed this method and
it has been very satisfactory.

WASHINGTON July S.--An inter departmental committee named by Secretary Of the Interior Franklin K, Lane and Secretary os Labor William B, Wilson is at work on plan to re- lieye unemployment in the United States through a scheme under whlct the Federal government would fi- nance workers desiring to take up farm lands. The committee will con- plete the proposed program with thii necessary drafts of the legislation which would be necessary to be fram- ed before Congress meets in session next December.
 Secretary of the Interior Lane says 1t would be possible for the United States to locate thousands of her citizens on agricultural lands and thus increase the agricultural product of the Nation, and thus add Co it's wealth yearly and at the same time reduce the tenseness of the competi- ton for place in the large cities and industrial centers-
