In the current issue of Farm and
Fireside j. Pickering Ross, an expert
on wool writes an interesting little
article showing the American farmer S
relation to the present war. In the fol-
lowing extract from the article he tells
why he thinks a really good time is
coming for the sheep man:
ENGLAND is the distributing point of
the world S wool, especially for that of
her great wool producing colonies. She
has now strictly prohibited its export.
She will take in all she can get and
keep it for her own manufacturers.
The allied armies need enormous sup
plies of wooden clothing, far more than
their own factories can turn out. AL
ready many of our mails are running
day and night to fill contracts made with
England and France. The coarse woods
of the Down breed and their crosses are
used altogether for that class of
goods, and their prices have gone up 10
to Is per cent, and are still rising. We
may get few bales from South Amer
lea, but our farmers must find the
bulk of what is needed. Fine woods are
not in such good demand. Our beef
supply is certainly not in excess, and
this sudden call for it canned and in
other forms must tend to raise the cost.
Mutton and lamb are gaining in popu-
larity; the Down breeds produce the
best of them, as well as the wool now
most in demand "

CLAIMS VIOLATION
Of OUR RIGHTS
ION HIGH SEAS
'-f Note Sent By United
o. es to Germany
RIGHT OF WAR ZONE CONTESTED
Privileges of American Ship Owners
and American Citizens Must Not
Be Abbreviated.

Washington, May little United
States government today cabled the
following note TO Ambassador Gerard
for presentation to the German gov
eminent;
The Secretary of State to the Ameri-
can ambassador at Berlin:
Please call on the minister of fore
ign affairs and after reading to him
this communication leave with him
copy.
In view of the recent acts of the
German authorities in violation of
American rights on the high seas
which eliminated in the torpedoing
and sinking of the British steamship
Lusitania on May Z, 1915. by which
over 100 American citizens lost their
lives, it is. clearly wise and desirable
that the government of the United
States and the imperial German gov
ernment should come to clear and
full understanding as TO the grave
situation which has resulted.
The sinking of the British passen-
ger steamer Falaba by German sub
marine On March 2S, through which
Leon c. Thresher, an American citi-
zen, was drowned; the attack on
April 2S on the American vessel Cush
ing by German aereplane; the tor
pedoing on May / of the American
Vessel Gulfiight by a German subma-
rine. as a result of which two or more
American citizens met their death,
and, finally, the torpedoing and sink
ing Of the steamship Lusitania, con
stitute series of events which the
government of the United States has
observed with growing concern, dis
tress and amazement.
Recalling the humane and enlight-
ened attitude hitherto assumed by
the imperial German government in
matters of international right and
particularly with regard to the free
dom of the seas; having learned TO
recognize the German views and the
German influence in the field OF inter
national obligation as always engag-
ed upon the side of justice and hui
manity; and having understood the
instructions of the imperial German
government to its naval command
ers to be upon the same plane of hui
name action prescribed by the naval
codes of other nations, the govern
ment of the United States was loath
to believe--it cannot now bring it.
self to belieye-that these acts, SO
absolutely contrary to the rules, the
practices, and the spirit of modern
warfare, could have the countenance
or sanction OF that great government.
1t feels it to be its duty, therefore,
to address the imperial German gov
ernment concerning them with the
utmost frankness and in the earnest

ment has been with the character OF
the imperial government and with
the high principles of equity by
which they have in the past been ac-
tuated and guided, the government OF
the United States cannot believe that
the commanders of the vessels which
committed these acts of lawlessness
did so except under a mlsapprehens-
ion of the orders issued by the i'm
perial German naval authorities. 1t
takes 1t for granted that, at least
within the practical possibilities of
every such case. the commanders
oven OF submarines were expected to
do nothing that would involve the
lives of ncncombatants Or the safety
OF neutral ships, even at the cost of
failing of their object of capture or
destruction.
1t confidently expects, therefore.
ment will disavow the acts of which
the government of the United States
complains, that they will make repa-
ration so far as reparation is possible
for injuries which are without meas
IRE, and that they will take immedi-
ate steps to prevent the recurrence
of anything SO obviously subversiye
Of the principles of warfare for
which the imperial German govern
ment has in the past SO wisely and
so firmly contended.
The government and people of the
United States look to the imperial
German government for just, prompt
and enlightened action i'll this vital
matter with the greater confidence
because the United States and Ger
many are bound together not only by
special ties of friendship but also by
the explicit stipulations of the treaty
of 1928 between the United States
and the kingdom of Prussia
Expressions of regret and offers of
reparation in case of the destruction
of neutral ships sunk by mistake,
while they may satisfy international
obligations, If no loss of life results,
cannot justify or excuse a practice
the natural and necessary effect of
which is to subject neutral nations
and neutral persons to new and i'm
measurable risks.
The imperial German government
will not expect the government of
the United States to omit any word
or any act necessary to the perfor-
nance OF its sacred duty OF maintain
ing the rights of the United States
and it's citizens and of safeguarding
their free exercise and enjoyment.
