doctor noted the importanc Of the
tuberculin test of cattle in the inter-
est of protecting the hogs.
The sore mouth condition OF hogs
was dwelt upon and 1t was pointed
out that in some respects this Is more
serious than cholera because Of the
insidious nature of the disease. In

emphasis upon the impaction OF the
bowels in horses and cattle from
feeding dry pea vines. Blackleg of
calves was talked about and burning
of carcasses of all animals that died
with blackleg, was declared to be i'm
perative. Vaccination was recon-
mended as the only preventative.
This was followed by an interesting
discussion of common diseases Of
live stock on the farms.
Friday morning DR.. Glover took
for his subject, THE Preservation OF
the Horses Foot" instead of Com
munity Cooperation" as advertised,
declaring that cooperation as exemp-
lifted in this community had been
sufficiently discussed and didn't need
ANY fixing" The speaker illustrat-
ed his talk by chart and showed that
the tendency was too much shoe
ing" He explained that nature has
fashioned the horses foot for rea-
sonable amount of service without
artificial covering or protection and
that when shoeing is necessitated It
must be done with due respect to
pathological requirements.
The subject of poison weed. poison
from mould and decayed or other
wise spoiled food" was discussed by
DR.. Glover. Friday afternoon. The
assertion was made and several
times repeated that the farmer can
not afford to feed mouldy or de-
cayed food to any animals on the
farm including chickens" In con-
clusion. DR.. Glover scored the farm
ers for not providing adequate shell
ter for the animals that are In the
field. The care of animals on the
farm, with proper feed and shelter
and thus avoiding disease, was the
keynote of the afternoons talk.

REPLY EXPECTED SOON
FROM GREAT BRITAIN
VIII Answer American Note Protesting
Against IlleEniity of Order
In Council

WASHINGTON. June 1s.-It was
stated officially yesterday that there had
been intimations from Great Britain
recently that n reply might be forth
coming soon to the American note of
March 80 protesting against the IL
legality of the order in council in its
restrictions on noncontraband COM
merce with Germany through neutral
countries.
Omcials have been preparing an
answer to the British notes which pre-
coded the issuance of the order in
council, and covering the academic
principles as they were affected by the
law of contraband and continuous voy
age. The United States has never adj
mitted the right of the allies to detain
cargoes of contraband consigned to
neutral ports when enemy destination
is not proved. and several cases still
are pending in which that principle is
involved.
The close relations of the order In
council, prohibiting noncontraband
commerce with Germany. to the traffic
In contraband articles with neutral
countries. has caused officials to COM
bine all phases of these questions in
single note, which is expected to be
sent soon as all data is obtained,
and when the situation with Germany
is clarified. The possibility that Ger
many may suggest n modus vivendi
whereby submarine warfare would he
abandoned il the allies order in coun
ell were revoked and the usual laws
of contraband put into effect is one
of the considerations which has de-
layed the dispatch of the American note
to Great Britain until the German re-
ply TO the last communication from the
United States is at hand.
Should new note from Great
Britain arrive in the meantime. the
communication now under preparation
TO be sent to the allies would neceS-
sarily be modified accordingly, and Of
ncials to-day were unable to predict
just when some development In the
situation might be expected.

Especial to The Times Dispa,ch.l
RALEIGH. y. c.. June Isl be-
li"ve," said Collector of Internal Reeve.
nue. j. W. Bailey today, in discussing
the efforts on the part OF the Federal
and the State authorities to suppress
blockade distillinG in this State, that
If the United States government finds
that the State is relying upon IL TO

Mr.. Bailey said that he wished to call
the attention of the people OF the
state TO the fact that the Federal Court,
recently in session here, sentenced
twenty eight men TO the Federal Prison
at Atlanta for terms ranging from one

terms here. practically all OF them he
ing for Illicit distilling. Mr.. Bailey
makes II clear that he does not think
that the suppression of this blockadinR
should fall SO completely upon the FoI-
cral authorities. He says that so long
as he is collector he will require OF
his deputies their utmost endcavors in
this direction. but he does not see WHY
tho people of the State should not de-
mand OF greater activity BY the shcriffs
and their deputies. These shcriffs and
numbers of deputies have only one
county in which to operate. while the
collector has only nine or ten deputies
Moreover, says Mr.. Bailey. the collcc-
tors Office is concerned with great
many other matters besides the sup
preston Of this blockading and every
deputy collector has many other duties
besides that of raiding. Furthermore,
Mr.. Bailey declares that he feels that
the dignity of the State demands that
ii enforce its own criminal statutes
rather than depend on the United States
to do so.
Discussing the situation further. Mr.
Bailey said that the recent movement
to reduce the number OF deputies i'm
this district was due to the fact that
the records at Washington show that
North Carolina apparently has more
than her share of deputies. However"
he added. the commissioner agreed to
withdraw his recommendation for the
reduction of the present force because
IL was shown that If he did. Illicit dis
filling would be likely to increase
greatly in this State"
