Peas as a Forage For Pigs.

During a trial in two consecutive
years at the North Dakota experiment
station pigs foraging Off a field Of
peas during the months of September
and October each year required in ad-
dition two pounds Of barley per 100
pounds live weight of pigs per day to
keep them gaining as rapidly as pigs
Of the same age and size being fed in
a dry lot and receiving four pounds
Of barley per day per 100 pounds live
weight of pigs. This shows that the
peas made possible a saving Of ne
half the amount Of barley usually re-
quired by pigs being fed in dry lots.
The return for the peas was SIG per
acre.

Narmin on Turkey.

Vermin are the greatest pests. They
will breed in one night. II you go into
the turkey house at night when the
the turkeys wings and sprinkle some
sulphur lightly under them, writes a
correspondent of Farm and Fireside.
Then hen will perspire from the heat
of all the young turkeys and that sui
phur will spread all over the little
birds md prevent lice. Sulphur is a
good ~disinfectant. and this method is
much the easier way to dust your tur-
keys. If you dust the little birds twice
a week until they can dust themselves
properly yermin will be prevented.

STEAMER ORDUNA
 FLEW U. $. FLAG
BRITISH STEAMER USES EMBLEM OF THIS COUNTRY TO PRO-
 TECT HER.
Captain of Vessel Refused to Make
 Statement Declaring He Was Un. der Orders From British Admiralty.

New York Feb. 10-Oficials of the Cunard Steamship Company admitted tonight that the steamer Orduna. which arrived in this port from Liver. pool today, flew "a neutral flag" for time while she was clearing the Irish coast.
 This statement was made after a numbers of passengers on the British liner had declared that for nearly 24 hours on January 31 she flew the Stars and Stripes while passing through the Irish sea
 These passengers asserted the American flag was flying aft. mdicat ing the nationality of the vessel On behalf of the line a denial was made during the day that the Orduna had flown the flag except at the foremast. it being explained that it was GUS tomary for all ships to do thi, to iu- dicate the country for which they are bound Captain Thomas NJ. Tay- 'or, in command of the Orduna, de clined to make any statement He said he was under orders from the British admiralty not to talk.
 The statement given out late today al the offices of the Cunard line sim ply referred to a neutral flag having been flown and did not specify the nationality. The statement said.
 "Ord1na left Liverpool flying Eng ish flag at stern and United States flag. as customary. at the fore. After eaying Bar ightship all flags were lowered. After leaving Queenstown for about a1 hour and half or two hours she did fly a neutral flag while she was clearing the Irish coast"
 Officials of the line declined to amplify this statement

Washington. Feb. 1O.-The United States government today sent note to Great Britain making friendly oh. servations on the use by British sbips or neutral flags and at the same time dispatched communication to Ger. many inquirng what steps would be taken by German commanders to verify the identity of ships living neutral flags in the recently pro- claimed zones of war around England and Ireland
 While the Lusitania incident is not mentioned, the representations to Great Britain are based on the state- ment of the British foreign office ius- tifying the use of neutral flags by her merchantmen to escape capture. The American government points out how frequent and continued use of this strategem might cast doubt on the character of vessels really entitled 10 fly the American flag.
 In the note to Germany it is under stood that the United States asked how the German admiralty proposed to carry out in practice its recent proclamation of war on merchant ships and it's warning that on account of the misuse of neutral flags by bel- ligerent vessels neutral ships could not always be distinguished
 The introduction of the submarine into warfare produces a situation not covered by any existing declaration of international law. The United States has made it clear, it is under stood, that an attack on a vessel fly- ing the American flag without at first ascertaining definitely that such use was fictitious, could not but be viewed gravely by the American gov- ernment and bring about serious com plications
 The United States has not fully ex- pressed itself on the German procls. nation. however, confining itself for the present to an inquiry for more r. formation on which future represen- tations may or may not be based. There is no evidence as yet for ex- ample, that any American ship will be Threatened, for German naval com manders may have a complete list and description of such vessels, mak- ing it possible to give assurances that no American ship will be moested. The communication merely seeks to learn more definitely what hazards an American ship might be confront ed with if passing through the newly prescribed sea zones and what steps will be taken by the German navy to give unrestricted passage to Ameri can vessels travelling through the waters.
 Both notes, which are to be pre- scented by the American ambassadors at London and Berlin, are brief and couched in friendly spirit

GERMANS ID ATTEMPT
 DECISIVE STROKE
AN ATTEMPT IS EXPECTED TO BREAK THE RUSSIAN LINES
 AND CROSS THE VlSTULA.

Berlin. Feb 10, via London Feb. 1l.-12:45 a. m.-Important develop ments in the east are generally ex- pected here at al early date Ru- mors have been repeatedly circulated from time to time in the act few weeks that the hour of a big victory was at hand. without, however. mate rializing into fact.
 There is reason to believe that the Germans are now in sufficient force to attempt decisive stroke at chosen point. The emperor and Gen. eral Von Falkenbayl. chief of staff, have returned to Berlin from visit of inspection to the east fronts
 Major Moraht, the military critic Of the Tageblatt, who is virtually the only British critic to venture an inde- pendent verdict on the military situa. ton, speaks of "sn impending dec!. sive battle in the east.
 He expects an attempt will be made 10 break the Russian lines and cross the Vistula, and discusses the rossib'e length of time Warsaw will hold ont after that, athouga 1t is not clear that the German commanders lay decisive wei ght on the immediate possession of the city and fortress
 Tn case of success the Austrian military representative here is quite confident that Przemysl will soon be relieved for a second time
 1t is known that the German forces in East Prussia and north of the Wis tula, which for months nave been content to remain on d strategic de- fensive. have been considerable strengthened and that fairly gem eral engagement is now in progress.
 Field Marshal Won Hindenburg re- ports that this engagement is pro gressing normally" D hrase strong ly reminiscent Of the bulletin which appeared just before the announce ment of general Russian defeat on December IT.

New York Feels the Pinch of War
 Prices.
 New York. Feb l0-Hotel men, bakers and prominent merchants met today at the call of Mayor Mitchell to discuss the rise in the price of bread in this city and 10 determine what measures can be taken to meet the situation. The price of bread was increased from to 6 cents today by many bakers, and the prices of rolls, pie and cake were raised in propor- ton.
 While the conference reached no decision, the opinion was expressed by many that it might be possible to obtain an agreement with the big bakers and large dealers that prices should be maintained at the figures obtaining before the increase. with a view to setting an example to the smaller interests
 During the discussion the repre-. sentatiyes of one of the largest bak- ing companies of New York decar- ed it was impossible for any baker 10 buy flour at the present prices, make 1t into bread and sell it at a profit for five or even six cents.
 George w Perkins declared the farmer was holding his wheat for g. and that it was being held at the original source on account of the war and the higher prices that export wheat might bring
 Your committee on food supply is trying every day to educate the peo- pie on subsututes,' said Mir Perkins When asked what substitute he dad for wheat, Mir. Perkins replied that he attended dinner recently where oatmeal cakes were served.

the light To this end President Will son today held series of confer. tnces with house members. including Representatives Underwood. Kitchin. Henry Alexander Adamsou. Flood and Padgeu, II is understood that the program tentatively agreed upon is as follows.
 The Weeks bil. already passed in the senate, to be taken up in the mousse as soon as the sundry civil bHll Is disposed of every thing after the 'hacting clause 10 be stricken out and the Gore substitute ship purchase biIl added. and the resulting measure to be passed as quickly as possible by 1 the house after a special rule.
 This biIl with Bhe prestige given by the passage in the house. to be taken up in the senate and kept be fore that body until the end of the session if necessary In case of no action before the end of the session. an extra session to be called on March !.
 This program was objected to by Representative F ood and some other house leaders, who advanced the idea that since an extra session apparently was inevitable the shipping bill should be laid aside temporarily.
 Senator Norris, progressive repub- lican, who has stood by the regular democrats through the long speaking iilibuster, told the senate late today no vote could be reached by March I, and urged that other legislation be undertaken
 The confident belief that the fill buster against the bill could be con tinued until March and that it would he impossible to pass the meas ure before the expiration of this con gress was given by Senator Norris as his reason for voting to break the long grind.
 T am not finding fault with sena- tors he said for doing what under the rules they have a perfect right to do. But these filibusters are in creasing, Tt Is unfortunate that we cannot decide any great issue with out test of physical strength. It Is a relic of barbarism'
 Senator Norris read his proposed amendment to the senate rules which would limit debate
 We stay here night after night, " he said. and are dragged out of our beds to answer roll cal when there are three or four senators in the chamber. 1t is ludlcrous, it Is foolish except that tue consequences are sometimes serious and the practice is engaged in by serious men.
 You know and I know and God knows that with about one-half of the members of the senate deter mined to continue this filibuster they can absolutely prevent a vote on this bill until after March f."
 Senator Norris said that while he favored the ship purchase bill, he could not see why all of the time from now until March 1 should be wasted in a useless effort to bring the measure to a vote.
 'I understand that it has been an nounced from the white house" Sen ator Norris continued. that if this bill is not passed, there will be a spe- cial session of congress soon after March 1. l assume that this is true, if this filibuster continues until March 1, we would have to have an extra session anyway to pass the ap- propriation bills. So there is nothing to be gained by continuing the fight.
 When the special session comes, as come it must, I will support this ship purchase bill heartily"
