BRYAN MAKES It
CLEAR TO BERNSTORFF
Takes 1t For Granted Ambassa.
dor Meant No Reflection
HE SHOULD HAVE KNOWN.
but Since He Does Not State Depart
ment Tells Him in Kindly Lam
guage It's Position

Washington, April 21.-The Uni
ted States replied today to the recent
memorandum in which Count Won
Bernstorff, the German ambassador
declared that elf the American peo-
pie desire to observe true neutrality
they will find means to stop the ex-
elusive Importation OF arms to one
side, or at least to use this eynort
trade as means to uphold the lrgi.
innate trade. with Germany. espccil.
ly the trade in oOIstuffs."
The American note. signed by Sec
retary Bryan was drafted at the
state department, but finally was
penned by President Wilson himself
After pointing out that the language
used by Count Won Bernstorff 'is sus-
ceptible of being construed as i'm.
pugning the good faith of the United
States in the performance or its
duties as neutral" the note "takes
1t for granted that no such implica-
tion was intended" and suggests that
evidently the German ambassador
is laboring under certain false i'm
pressions."
lt then declares that while the re-
iations of the United States with
any one of the belligerents "canno,
wisely be made a subject of discus
sion with third government" such
correspondence between the United
states and the allies as has beon
published shows "the steadfast re.
fusaP' of the American government"
to acknowledge tho right Of any bel
ugerent to alter the accepted ruiee
or war at sea insofar as thew affect
the rights and interests of neu:rals +"
The attitude Of the United States
on the question Of expectations of
arms is restated-namely that to
place any embargo on arms during
the progress Of war would be ga
direct violation of the neutrality of
the United States" The note refers
to the spirit of friendship which the
United States desires always to man
ifest toward Germany and it's people
and concludes with the declaration
that the neutrality Of the United
States fs founded upon the firm
basis of conscience and good will"
The communication was delivered
by messenger 70 Count Bernstorff
late today and by arrangement with
the German embassy the state de-
parement made it public tonight.

YOUNG BOY SHOOTS HIMSELF.
f. f. Cochran, Jr., Kills Himself by
Accident.

Anderson, April 21.-Ernest Ford
Cochran, Jr., IA years old and only
child OF Former Uniter States Dis
trict Attorney and Mrs. Ernest F..
Cochran, accidentally shot himself
through the head with his fathers
automatic pistol Tuesday afternoon
at I:10 O'Clock whine IN his fathers
room at their home, and died at
7:45 p. m, without having regalne d
consciousness. The tragedy is one
of the most heart-reding that has
ever occurred in Anderson. Mrs.
Cochran had left the house only a
few minutes prior to the accident.
while Mr.. Cochran was in Greenville,
where he had gone to attend United
States district court which convened
there today.
The fatal shot was heard by Miss
Sarah Dixon, a trained nurse, who
was passing the house at the time.
The young lady made her way to the
room and found the lad lying un-
conscious on the floor. The ball from
the weapon entered his right ear,
passing through the head, and came
out through the left temple.
The father first heard of the
dreadful accident of his son when he
was met on an incoming train.
Though 1t was terrible blow to him,
he bore his suffering with splendid
Christian fortitude. The home
coming was pathetic in the extreme
and the grief of the parents over the
loss of their only child, to whom
they were devoted with love that
was beautiful to behold is all but
unbearable.

Dentists Plan for Great Convention.

Columbia, April 22.-The annual
meeting of the South Carolina Dem
tai Association, which convenes in
this city April 27, promises to be
one of the most interesting in the
history of the organization. The
program of the public sessions con-
tains the names of men who have
studied dentistry not only from
scientific standpoint, but it's relation
to the individual, especially the
child. Therefore, those who attend
these sessions will not be bored by
long technical papers, but will be
entertained and interested in prac-
tical addresses on health and mouth
hygiene.

doctor said, "but feel they are in their
grip so far as fighting goes. There are
10000 wounded soldiers in the Turkish
capital. The American nurses from
the college there are doing good work
IN the hospitals. The Turks are taking
advantage Of the war to form n hermit

declared they ordered all Greeks,

KEEPING UP MILK FLOW.
Grain Ration to Supplement Alfalfa
Hay and Corn SiIaqe.

sNy N'N 0S'' OssAA0s
Alfalfa and clover hay and corn
silage form the basis of Il splendid "a
ton. When concentrates are not TOO
high in price, it is we'll to feed them
freely with silage and alfalfa, saws
Hoard's Dairyman. There are times
when feeds are so high in price and
dairy products comparatively low that
it is better to let the corn silagc and
alfalfa or clover hay form the entire
roughage of the animal. In such
cases we would feed from forty to
forty-fiyc pounds daily Of corn silagc
and all the alfalfa and clover hay each
COW will consume without waste.
In making Il mixture to supplement
these feeds to obtain the best results
we would select at least three kinds of
feeds, all of which would be palatable
and can~be purchased at the most rea-
sonable prices. If alfalfa is used plen-
ty of protein will be supplied to the
ration so very little attention need be
given whether the ration Is rich in
protein or not. AS it is. the protein
will take the place of carbohydrates.
1t will be found that ground barley

Will get II pound per day, will also
go we'll with the silage and alfalfa, If
corn silage and alfalfa are fed alone il
may be found that the milk flow will
not be sustained. especially If the ami
mails are not accustomed to eating a
large amount of roughage. If animals
are used to consuming large quantities
OF silage and alfalfa and with very
little or no grain it will be found they
will do exceptionally we'll when fed
upon this combination, but most ami
mails are accustomed to grain and will
not sustain their yield unless they have
become accustomed to going without
concentrates.

: AVOID sIL0 ACCIDENTS. !
- u


with the opening of the silo filling
season there will be frequent reports
OF serious and fatal accidents, The
manufacturers Of silage cutters have
greatly improved their construction in
recent years, and most accidents now
adays are the result Of carelcssness.
Practically all of them can be avoid
ed by the exercise OF reasonable care.
In addition to the exercise Of common
sense at the feeding end of the ma
chine, here are some things that tho
inexperienced man should do:
BE sure that the machine Is being
run ut the proper speed.
Take care that corn is never rut int,,
the machine until the motion is nm to
full speed.
In stopping be careful not to shut off
the power until the elevator is emnty.
Ii the elevator Is not empty tho ont
material will fall back and lodge in
the fans. Then when the machine is
started again the cut corn jams the
fans. and as a result they are bent or
broken.
