Events OF General interest in Mime
sofa Condensed and Revised for
The Greater Convenience
OF Busy Readers.

A. r. Woods, dean OF the state col.
lege OF agriculture, has urged the
Minnesota State Horticultural society
to lose no time in having each Of the
900 farmers clubs in the state appoint
q horticultural committee, one mem
Der of which would have representa-
ton In the society Dean Woods was
speaking at the opening session of the
horticultural society's meeting at the
West hotel. He said fruits and flowers
are civilizing and home-making infiu-
ences.
Not only through the farmers clubs
but through the rural schools should
better homes, better farms and better
country life be enlarged upon, the
speaker urged. Dean Woods asked
delegates to the horticultural meeting
to interest themselves In consolidated
schools and teacherages. He said Min
nesota has 14S community centers In
the shape of consolidated schools. The
speaker suggested that the horticul-
tural association should have COM
munity building of its own and that 1t
should BIO located at the university

Potato Crop Increases.
Minnesota lovers of potatoes will
have 4.596,476 bushels more to digest
this year than In 1914. according to
figures made public by Fred b. Sher-
man, immigration commissioner. The
total production this year was $685.
476 bushels and the farm value ST.
6sS,238. Farmers of Minnesota used
304, 424 acres for potatoes this year, as
against 100000 acres In 1914. The
yield this year shows gain OF Ave
bushels to the acre, from ia bushels
to 1l9 bushels,
"A glance at figures for q period Of
years back shows that Minnesota's po-
tato acreage Ii gradually increasing"
said Mr., Sherman. This Ia accounted
for by the fact that much new land In
Northeastern Minnesota Ia being open
Cd every year.
THAT section Of the state Is partio-
ularly adapted to potatoes and the set
tiers look ON potatoes as staple crop
for the first few years.
1T was only few years ago when
practically all the potatoes used in
Northeastern Minnesota were shipped
from the central part Of the state, but
now many of the counties are shipping
potatoes each year"

Trenton, N. j., June 4.-The Unit

against the government in its suit to
dissolve the United States Steel Cor

nous. The court held that in acquir-
ing its foreign and home trade the
corporation did not violate the Sher-
man antitrust act and refused all
injunctions prayed for by the depart
ment of justice as against the Steel
Corporation. The court held the meet
ings were participated in by 90 per
cent of the steel trade of the country,
including the Steel Corporation Sub
sequent to the famous Gary dinners
eight years ago it was unlawful for
combinations to control prices, but as
these meetings were stopped before
the government filed its complaint on
October 11th, the judges held there is
no occasion for an injunction.

AUTO REGULATIONS
IMPROVED BY IGOU

A special to the Times-Union from
Tallahassee says:
Senator Igou's automobile license
bill, completely changing the system
now in vogue of registering as state
proposition, automobiles, was passed
by both houses and now becomes law
with the reception of the governor
signature.
The bill was amended in the house
this afternoon to require license OF
81 on motorcycles, otherwise it went
through as the Senate had passed the
measure and this is acceptable to the
Senate.
The measure provides for one IL
cense tag, to be paid in the county
where the license is issued for a ma
chine in that county, and abolishes
the state registration fee of 81.
The county license is graduated or
the seating capacity of the automo.
biles, instead of the horsepower as
heretofore.

PAID A HEAVY PRICE
Fearful Slaughter Among TeutOns
When Przemysl was
Retaken

Vienna, June 4.-The loss of life
at the recapture of Przemysl was Sc
we're. The Teutons hurled whole regi-
ments against the whitening fire of
the Russian defenses while the heavy
artillery thundered against the fort
resses from three sides. The Russians
fought like demons but lacked artil-
lery ammunition to check the Teu-
ton columns.
The Teutons swept forward in
massed formation with irresistible
bayonet charges, against which the
Russians stood for moment like a
stone wall and then broke into utter
rout
The giant forty-two centimeter
guns similar to those used in reduc-
ing the forts of Liege, Namur and
Antwerp werc used with telling effect
upon the Russian defenses of Pre-
mysl.
1t is estimated that the Russian
army defending the city and forts
was 250,000 of which a large number
were taken prisoners along with
large quantities of war munitions
and guns abandoned in the hasty
flight.
The remnants of the defeated Rus
sian army is retiring to the eastward
with the Teutons following close
upon their heels and inflicting much
damage to the rear guards. The
Teutonic victory at Pzremysl will re-
lease an immense Austro-G German
army for a campaign against Lem
berg where the German drive will be
centered. Both sides lost thousands OF
men and quantities of munitions de-
stroyed
Most of the forts had been destroy.
ed by the Austrians, which accounts
for the easy recapture. There is nc
estimate of the booty captured, but il
is fairly certain the Russians, having
lots of time, got away as many mer
and as much material as possible
destroying the guns and ammunition
remaining.

insurance companies fought payment
of the policies on the ground that
they believed Painter had committed
suicide. The amount involved in the

DECLARATION OF PRINCIPLES
P0

Washington, D. c., June 4.-The
United States rejoinder to the recent
note of Germany, concerning the
sinking of the Lusitania, was consid-
cred by the president and cabinet
today. The communication, which
was drafted by President Wilson
himself, asks definitely whether Ger
many intends TO be guided in future
by humane principles embodied in in
ternational law for the conduct of
maritime warfare.
Count Won Bernstorff, German am
bassador, has completed plans for
sending personal representative to
Berlin as soon as the American note
has started on its way, to outline to
the German government officials the
situation in the United States as re-
spects public opinion toward Ger
many. Hope was expressed at the
embassy today that the ambassadors
plan will result in a satisfactory out
come of the delicate situation that
has arisen.

TWELVE TO FIVE IN
FAVOR OF OCALA

AS is indicated by the score of II
to 5, yesterdays baseball perfor-
nance at Hunter park between the
locals and Citra did not create a
great deal of enthusiasm among the
fans.
Bishop and Denham, an exported"
battery, started the game for Citra,
but the Ocala sluggers were too
much for them and in the fifth inning
Gates and Luffman the regulars of
the team were installed at their sta
tions. Their luck, however, was lit
tie better than the deposed battery,
as the Ocala boys gathered five runs
off them in the remaining innings.
Harris and Dinkins for the locals,
did good work, and might have put up
stronger fight had it been neces-
sary.
