LONDON, Jan. s. 2:06 p. NAM
bassador Page today received from
the British government the prelimi-
nary reply to the American note pro-
testing against British interference
with American shipping. He forward
ed 1t Immediately to Washington.
The time Of delivery of the more
definite supplementary reply which
the British government Is to make
is uncertain. 1t probably will be
within two weeks.
Further negotiations between the
two governments concerning specific
cases of detention of American ves-
sells will precede the preparation OF
the final British answer.
WASHINGTON, Jan s.-Secretary
Bryan and other officials today
awaited receipt of the British gov
ernments preliminary reply to the
recent American note on the subject
of interferences with shipping.
At noon 1t had not been received,
but officials expected that with
prompt transmission 1t would be ln-
coded and before them by night.
Conversation between Sir Cecil
Spring-Rice, the British ambassador;
Secretary Bryan and Counsellor Lam
sing have led the latter to believe the
British government would recognize
the emergency which existed, as in
dicated In the American note 1t has
been understood here that that reply
would not be completely responsive; /;
in the first place, because the legal
proposition advanced by the United
States, though not new, and, In fact,
once partially accepted, have since
been made subjects of controversy
and are not generally accepted as
binding by all maritime powers. That
applies particularly to the assertion
of the right to ship cargoes of food

redo Reports State.

LAREDO, Tex, Jan. s.-An attack
% villa troops in Saitillo was begun
by about fifteen thousand Constitn-
tionalist troops at 3 a. m. today.
Early reports from the battle said
that hundreds already had been killed
or wounded. The Carranza forces
were attacking from mountains about
the city and were pouring in a fire
from fifteen cannon.
The Villa troops occupied Saltillo
two days ago by a trick and without
fight The Carranza forces under
General Antonio l. villareal had
evacuated the city TO proceed against
Villa forces which they met and de-
feated at La Brisa and Marte.
Meanwhile. however, another Villa
force had marched through the noun
tains to the southeast OF Saltillo and
entered the city. The Carranza army
returned in force early today.
Reports at noon from Carranza
sources claimed that the advantage
lay with the beziegers. but with the
battle still raging.
Saltillo is about $50 miles from the
American border In the State of Coa-
hula. where Carranza started his
revolution.
WASHINGTON. Jan. s.-General
Villas intention to attack the Car
rama garrison at Naco was COM
municated TO the war department to-
day IN official dispatches from army
observers on the frontier. Secretary
Garrison said. however, that the in
formation came from the American
side Of the border.
When shown a report that Villa
had notified Major-General Scott OF
his intention of attacking the border
town in an effort finally to dislodge
the Carranza forces, Secretary Gar
rison said he had received no report
from the chief of staff since he left
Naco for FL Paso.

and one would be better still. OF course,
circumstances alter cases. If it is in
tended to run a general poultry farm,
taking in all the branches-eggs, broil-
ers and roasters-then it would be best
to have not less than two breeds, prob
ably better to have three. Leghorns,
Mtnorcas or any of the nonsitting
breeds for eggs in summer, when the
others would be broody; the Wyan-
dottes, Plymouth Rocks or Rhode Is
land Reds for broilers and winter eggs.
The Wyandottes. Plymouth Rocks or
Rhode Island Reds should also be
utilized for small sized roasting fowls.
1t is always best to have two sizes Of
roasters, as some people prefer a small
size to a large one This makes a
profitable all the year round combina-
ton.
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1915-05-13
BRIEF STUDY OF
THE POULTRY BREEDS

We have breeds for all purposes
summer eggs, winter eggs, broilers,
roasters and general purposes, writes
NJ. X. Boyer In the American Cultiva-
tor. We have heavy egg records with
the nonsitting breeds, but the bulk of
their production is in spring, summer
and early fall. Unless under very ia
vOrable circumstances, they are but or
binary layers during the winter. Our
winter laying breeds are of the broody
class, and they give comparatively
few eggs during the warm season Of
the year. Much Of their time is taken
in incubating. Then we have a class
that are better adapted for broiler
raising than for roasting purposes. On
the other hand. we have breeds that
make better roasters than broilers.
Again, we have general purpose fowls
reasonably we'll adapted for all that
one could wish for in poultry.
To become more plain, the summer
layers are the Leghorns, Minorcas, An
dalusians, Spanish, Hamburgs, Polish
and Houdans. The winter layers are
the Asiatics (Brahmas. Cochins and
Langshans) and the Americans ply
mouth Rocks. Wyandottes and Rhode
Island Reds. The best for broilers-
the Wyandottes. Plymouth Rocks or
the Rhode Island Reds. The best for
roasters-the Brahmas or L%angshans.
We admit that in this choice we may
find opposition by champions Of other
breeds. But we are honest in u decla-
ration, as we speak only from the ex-
perience we have had with the breeds.
1t is q mistake to keep more than
three varieties; two would be better,

BOWLER HAS TEN STRIKES;
HIS SCORE is ONLY 1893.

A bowler by the name of Won
dra out in st. Paul has achieved
the freakiest score ever recorded
in tenpin annals.
This bowler made ten strikes,
and yet his total score was only
1913. When it is considered that
twelve consecutive strikes yield
a perfect score, 800, it is difficult
to imagine how two strikes less
should make a difference Of 1902
pins.
Wondra started with three
straight strikes. In his fourth
frame he made one pin with his
first ball and three with his Sec
ond. giving him a count Of six
ty-nine in the fourth frame. Then
!, he had three more strikes, break
ing in the eighth frame, in which
, he obtained one pin with his first
} ball and three with his second.
, He struck out from the ninth
, frame. Another popularity Of
) Wondra's game Is that he made
; n or more pins with every ball
) he rolled.
, The largest score that can be
made with ten strikes is $50.

TARRo M1YAKE, J1UJlrsU EXPERT.

TARRo MIYAKE, JIUJITsC ExPER
Bothner, who has no equal as Il scien-
tifc wrestler, got the fourth fall of his
third Of a century rs Il wrestler when
Miyake threw him in a trife more than
twenty-five minutes. Then Bothner
surprised his antagonist by assuming
the offensive, and after eight minutes
he threw the sturdy Jap, thus winning
the match.
1t was easy to see that Miyake's
knowledge Of wrestling did not put
him in Bothner's class. When Bothner
got his famous scissors hold on the
Jap the result was inevitable, for no
man, no matter what his strength or
weight. has ever escaped a fall when
Bothner got that hold.
With more knowledge of catch-as-

that will come with experience-Mi-
yake will be q formidable rival for the
best wrestlers in the game.

Egg Laying Tendencies.

An important fact that should be
borne in mind is that the tendency to-
ward laying is more often inherited
through the SOD of a heavy layer than
through her daughters. and while the
daughters of u great egg producer are
valuable, the sons are more valuable.
This is especially true in that a cock
erel can influence the offspring of :.
dozen females, thus increasing his in
fuence in the flock.

A trip across the continent, attend

just been completed in Los Angeles by
G. W. and ]. W. Logan of Tifin, O.,
who drove a small car through to the
coast in the face of the worst weather
and road conditions Of the year. The
entire expenditure by the Logans on
their trip was $500. This amount es.
tablished a precedent in economy that
will doubtless hold as a record for
some time. No repairs of any kind
were required along the road, and as
the a was left in the open each night
the garage expense was a negligible
quantity.

POULTRY GOSSIP.

The lousy hen is the one that
always catches cold and finally
comes down with the roup.
Hens will produce nearly twice
as many eggs if fed upon milk
than If otherwise fed.
January is the month IN which
most poultrymen mate up their
focks for the coming breeding
season.
During cold weather the eggs
should be gathered several times
a day, as they very readily chill
and crack. Eggs for Matching
should be kept in u temperature
Of not less than so degrees.
Separate all the ailing birds
from the well ones, keeping the
former in warm and dry quar-
tiers while undergoing treatment.
Increase the quantity of corn
in the night ration, especially
during very cold weather.

from England with him, he has the
money to back his challenge.
Miyake besides being a ~jiujitsu ex-
pert has a knowledge of catch-as-catch-

form of endeavor in his challenge. He
