British Laud Wilson for Demands.

London.-"President Wilson," says
the Daily Chronicle, has at last
spoken out. His note to the German
government is studiously courteous,
but is very firm in substance. There
is one paragraph which will jar on
BRITISH feeling. 1t Is that in which he
alludes to what he calls the humane
and enlightened attitude hitherto as
sumed by the German government in
matters of international right In
view Of Germany's fragrant violation
Of International right and the laws of
warfare, these compliments sound
strangely to the English ear. With
this reservation we think that the
note is worldly Of the great country
whence it emanates."

MAKE SUCCESS IN ORCHARDS
Excellent Results Secured at Iowa Sta.
ton by Cultivation, Pruning and
Thorough Spraying.

What cultivation, pruning and spray
ing will do to make apple orcharding
as successful in Iowa as in the much
touted western districts was fully
shown at the big Council Bluffs or
chard of the Iowa Agricultural expert
ment station. This orchard, under the
care of horticulturists from Iowa State
College at Ames, yielded 1000 bush
els Of apples from Is acres of trees.
From So trees of Grimes Golden, $40
bushels of apples were harvested,
more than ten bushels per tree. Of
this big crop, $50 bushels were lit for
packing in boxes and sale of fancy
trade at top prices. These results were
due to modern methods of orchard care
and management. The results of this
work at Council Bluffs will later be
carried to every orchard district In
Iowa to encourage and improve COM
mercial orcharding.

To Offer Governor Plan.


Adjt. Gen. Orlando Holway of the
Wisconsin National Guard said he ex-
pected soon to ask Gov. E. L. Philip
to approve plan for increasing the
strength of the organization in the
Guard and to provide for oreanizing
two new batteries of field art1nery.
General Holway said that it was
planned to have the membership OF
the military companies increased from
65 men to 81 men. This will give two
additional squads of eight men each
for each company. The general said
that after the two additional squads
had been assimilated by company it,
was probable that the strength of the
company would be further increased.
The plan of increasing the strength
of the State Guard will, however, de-
pend on the action of congress in in
creasing the strength of the military
companies in the regular army. Such
action by congress, General Holway
said, was expected to be taken early
during the coming session, which con-
venes in December.

Tobacco Damage Totals Millions.


The loss on Wisconsin tobacco this
year will amount into the millions,
possibly 10 per cent of the entire crop
being best quality, though shed burn
may cause still further losses. The
weather has been too wet for proper

are building fires under the tiers to
preserve the shielded weed.
The ,ements seem determined the
tobacco growers would not be permit
ted to realize much from the crop OF
the present season. Following close
upon the disastrous hail storm of last
week the growing districts of the
southern portion of the state were
deluged with an eight-inch precipita-
ton Sunday night, again doing almost
incalculable damage by flooding the
low lands and washing the fields. Re-
ports of hail damage in sections be-
tween Madison and Mcfarland, about
Sun Prairie and in Vernon county
bring further discouraging news.

crop had been harvested before these

year heretofore. 1t may reach 81 ,OOO,'
900 this year. The warehouses are
still filled with stemming goods from

more than on any enrolment day in

Mr.. Walker expressed the belief
that the 200 mark will be passed, and
attributes the greatly increased at
tendance to general awakening
among parents and friends of the
deaf to the opportunity offered free

same basis as children who hear. The
state provides room, board, washing,
light, heat and medical service free
