GERMANY REVIEWS WARNING
TO AMERICAN TRAVELLERS

Washington, May In an Of
fetal notice published by the Ger
man embassy in many important
cities of the United States this
morning Americans were given
renewed warning that they travel
on ships flying the flags of Ger
many's enemies at their own risk.
While the notice was regarded
among officials and diplomats
here as nothing more than re-
iteration of Germany's first warn
ing given when the war zone
about the British isles was an
nounced, there was much interest
in whether it foreshadowed in
creased activity Of German sub
marines, or possibly had to do
with movements of the German
fleet which has been variously
reported of late cruising in the
North sea.
Count Bernstorff, the German
ambassador, was away today, but
officials at the embassy said so

HAIL STONES LARGE
AS BASE1AllS

st. Louis, Mo-, May 3.-Hail-
stones as large as baseballs were
hurled upon scattered sections OF
Missouri yesterday in storm
which was referred to as the
worst in a generation in reports.
The damage to crops and live
stock will run into thousands OF
dollars.
In st. Louis the streets were
flooded in places by several feet
of water. In Kings highway, fash
ionable church goers were first
startled and then pleased by the
sight of a boy in canoe. The lad
instituted a passenger service be-
tween the church door and the
street car door and cleared a
boys fortune before the water
subsidized.
At Upton, hailstones were
found which measured 1-2 in
ches in diameter and weighed half
a pound.

SOME FACTS ABOUT
CORN PLANTING

For grain production, checking
corn 3 feet, & inches or feet 8
inches, with 3 to 4 kernels per
hill, is the method usually follow
ed in Minnesota, says A. C. Army,
of the Minnesota College of Ag-
riculture. Checking the corn per-
mits cultivation both ways and
gives a better opportunity to keep
it free from weeds than does drill
led corn. When the soil is excep-
tionally free from weeds, the corn
may be drilled to advantage, and
the plants should be from l2 to
IA inches apart in the row.
For silage, or for bundle-corn
to be fed without husking, a plant
every 6 or 8 inches in the row,
either checked or drilled, will pro-
duce larger yield and better
quality than thinner planting.
From to 2 inches is good
oOPCH W pldH1 IL CHC SUI Is IIlOlSL.
If there is no moisture within 3
inches of the surface, the corn
must be planted deeper. When
the season is late and the soil
still somewhat wet and cold,
planting not more than 1 or i-2
inches deep is important. The
deeper corn is planted the longer
the time needed to reach the sur
face, which means that the grow
ing season will be shortened. The
probability that some plants will
not be able to reach the surface is
increased by planting unnecessar-
lily deep. The corn plants cannot
be made to root lower i'm the soil
by deep planting. The permanent
roots are developed about the
same depth wether the corn is
planted 2 or I inches deep.

THE RIGGS BANK FIGHT

The fight between the Riggs
banks of Washington and the sec
rotary of the treasury and con-
troller of the currency is develop
ing along the lines that those ia
miliar with the antecedents knew
it would develop. Already the cry
has been taken up by certain
banks over the country which en-
gage in speculation, brokerage
business, promotion schemes and
selling ''watered securities thai
the fight on the Riggs bank is Il
scheme of democratic politicians
to get control of the banking sit
uation of the country. Newspap-
ers, which represent this class OF
banks, have taken up the cry in
an effort to make the issue par
tisan one and obscure the real
issue.
The plain facts are that the de-
mand by the controller of the cur
rency and the secretary of the
treasury that the Riggs bank con-
duct an honest banking business
is only one of the many incidents
to a fight this administration has
been making to get the control OF
national banks and national fl
nances out of the hands of a
clique of Wall street high finan-
ciers, out of the control of poll
ticians and back on a. basis of
legitimate banking.
When this administration came
into power it found the treasury
department filled with employees
and agents of the Riggs bank =
which was acting merely as the
agent of the National City bank
Of New York city and its affiliated
banking institutions. There was
no secrecy about this situation.
For years the treasury depart
ment has been merely an annex
to Wall street. The controller of
the currency had always been
named by. Wall street interests,
and had run that department ac-
cording to Wall streets wishes.
The national bank examiners,
appointed by the controller and
under his direction, were politi-
cal appointees. The recent failure
of the ''prize honor national
bank" Of the United States, at
Uniontown, Pa, brought out the
fact that under a former control
Ter this bank had been examined
by an examiner who got his job
because he had been connected
with the Ohio republican state
committee. Several banks he Tex
amined" and pronounced to be
safe were at the time violating
nearly all of the national banking
laws, and were insolvent. The
Uniontown bank was one of them
some Pittsburgh banks were 9TH
ers. But all were republican"
banks, having for officers and di-
rectors prominent republicans of
Pennsylvania and liberal contri-

butOrs to the republican cam
paign funds. So they were per-
mitted to go ahead with their
crooked banking until they failed
for millions and robbed thousands
of people.
Another illustration will serve
to show what conditions Control
Ter Williams and Secretary Nc
Adoo found and what they are
trying to eliminate. During the
recent campaign of Penrose for
reelection, it came to light that
in order to ruin a political oppon-
emf of his, who was mayor of
Philadelphia, Penrose ascertain
ed at what national banks in Phil
adelphia his opponent had loans
then Penrose went to Washing
ton and had the controller of the
currency send special bank ex-
aminer' to those banks and ord
er them to call this mans loans.
OF course, such banking meth
DDS are crooked. There can he no
defense of them. Yet such prac-
tees have prevailed in the treas
ury department for years. The
Wall street clique of banks,
through information furnished by
their spies OH the treasury pay
roll and the bludgeon used by
their henchmen who were bank
examiners controlled the banking
situation of the United States.
The republican party, through
these affiliations, also kept fl
nanced.
When Williams and McAdoo
came into office they came with
knowledge of these crooked con-
ditions and with experience in
fighting Wall Street. Williams had
saved the Searboard Airline rail
road from being looted by Wall
street for years-it was the last
independent railroad in the coun-
try. McAdoo had fought Wall
street and crooked politicians in
the building of the Hudson river
tunnel. They proceeded to kick
out of the treasury department
every employee of the Riggs bank
and Immediately the fight was
on.
That action was notice to the
Riggs bank and it's Wall street
hackers that the treasury depart
ment and the banking department
of the United States were no long,
er to be considered as and treat
ed as the private property of Wall
street and it's affiliated politicians
and crookedly financed corpora
lions. 49,
The latest development is only
another chapter in the story.
There undoubtedly win be others.
Every national bank and banker
in the United States which wants
banking kept on sound basis
and away from speculation and
political control are in sympathy
with WILLIAMS and McAdoo-Dev-
ills Lake Journal.

Simple and misguided Britishers,

''They thought that the fact

THE FLv,s ROUTINE

His program is this: Bred in
filth, and spending much of his
time in filth, he enters the house,
every tiny hair and the sticky pads
of his feet covered with germs. He
makes at once for food or for the
warm human body. Have you ever
noticed how, when he lights on a
piece of sugar he will stay there
for a long time without moving
any part of his body, but his legs?
This is done to clean them of the
accumulated filth from which he
has come.
Or perhaps he visits the Sleep
ing child and crawls over the
warm little face, and especially
the moist little mouth. Is it sur
prising that summer is a terrible
season for babies? Is it any Won
der that in New York City alone
seven thousand children die each
year of diarrheal diseases?
Or if he wanders around the
edge of the milk-pitcher, he is
very likely to fall in, whence he is
carefully fshed out, and the re-
manning milk, in all probability
laden with deadly germs, is con-
sumed by the family.
That flies are typhoid carriers
is not a matter of theory; it was
proved during the Spanish-Am-
erican War beyond the shadow of
a doubt. 1t has been proved by
DR.. Gorgas, the sanitary officer of
the Panama Canal, who has turn
ed the isthmus from a pestilent
spot to garden of health by ex-
terminating. flies and mosquitoes.
Some Good Mays to Kill Flies
Heat a shovel and drop on it
twenty drops Of carbolic acid -
The vapor kills the flies.
A cheap tly-poison is a solution
of formaldehyde in water - a
spoonful of this liquid put into
half cup of water and exposed
in the room, will kill the flies.
Powdered lime sprinkled on
horse manure will prevent the
flies from breeding-It should be
used every five days at least.
