NEW YORK, Dec. 3.--The kAissr'a

Emperor rrans Josef 10 not due to ~
ports that Austria b planning 10 co..
clude = separate peace. but rather to
the increasingly serious domestic slt-
uation within Austria and Germany.
and especially with relation to food
and economic dangszS.
A separate peace would have been
of more advantage to Austria In tAs
spring. Then, Russia held 0alio1a
and threatened to overrun Hungary:
Italy was then about to enter the war.
But now It IL extremely unlikely thA&
there win b . break In the alignmsat
between Germany and Austria, for
since spring the Russians have besa
thrown back in 0alicia, and Italy has
failed to make any headwAy with her
campaign.
That the domestic situation q real
ly serious u indicated from the tact
that Germany has stopped the foreign
circulation Of the Cologne 0asette
and the Frankfurter zeitung. the
principal independent German news
papers. This probably was because
they printed criticisms Of the govern
ment and accounts Of disgusting 90
Of which the enemy ought
to be kept in ignorance.
Reports Of food riots in Austria
and Germany have been too frequent
Of late to be unfounded. The latest
report declared that women before
the kaiser's palace have cried out for
the return of their husbands.
That the two emperors discussed
possible peace is regarded - likely.
in view Of the disturbing situation
within their own borders. and the
prospects of new and serious trouble
for them on the southeastern front.

FARMERS CONTROL BUTTED IN
DUSTRY

Minnesota has nearly twice as many
cooperative creameries as any other
state in the union. and nearly one
third of the total number of coopera-
tive creameries of the United States
The number, according to bulletin on
"Statistics Of Cooperation, Among
Farmers in Minnesota by l.. D. H.
Weld, Chief of the Division Of Re-
seach in Agricultural Economics Of the
University of Minnesota, is GA, which
is - per cent Of all the creameries in
Minnesota. Forty-two per cent of all
the farmers in the state are patrons of
these creameries. There is no other
important dairy state, says Mr.. Weld,
where the butter industry is controlled
to such an extent by the farmers them
selves. A majority Of the creameries
are operated On a no-profit basis, de-
Quoting from their gross receipts
enough to cover expenses, and distrib-
uting the remainder from month to
month according to the amount of but
ter fat brought in by patrons.
These creameries in 1913 made H.
e34,94O pounds of butter. This was
an average Of 1904 pounds for each
creamery. For the butter fat the farm
ers were paid $19,9sS,321. The aver
age amount paid to the farmer by each
creamery was 1854. The total run
ming expenses for the cooperative
creameries was $1,682,931. The aver
age number of cows for each creamery
was 822.

POTATO CONTEST FOR NORTHERN
MINNESOTA

Northern Minnesota will have a pota-
to contest for boys and girls this year.
Announcement to this effect has been
made by T. A. Erickson, Of the Exten-
sion Division of the Minnesota College
Of Agriculture, and Of the United
State Department Of Agriculture, who
is in charge Of boys and girls club
work in Minnesota.
The contest is made possible through
the cooperation Of county school super
intendents, high school agricultural in
structors, and county agents with the
Northern Minnesota Development As
ISOLATION. The main reason for this
contest is the fact that the boys in
Northern Minnesota are at disadvan-
tage in the corn contest. Potatoes, not
corn, is the chief crop in their section.
Any boy or girl between 10 and II
years may enter. The southern bound
ary of the district is the south line Of
Wilkin. Grant, Douglas, Todd, Morri-
son, Mile Laos, Kanabec and Pine
counties. Each lot must contain one
eighth of an acre or more. The vari-
ETY. planted must be Of the Rural New
Yorker or Carman type.
Final awards will be based on yield,
economy Of production, quality Of an
exhibit Of fifteen pounds to be made at
the annual meeting Of the Northern
Minnesota Development association,
and story Of how the potatoes were
grown.

RHEUMATISM IS CAUS-
ED BY GERMS

Exposure, cold, and wet does not
seem to produce rheumatism, according
to studies Of the soldiers on the firing
line in Europe,'' says DR.. H. W. Hill,
Of the Minnesota Public Health asso-.
citation. "This means radical rever-
sal Of popular belief, but is quite in
line with some very fine laboratory
studies made during the last two or
three years in Chicago. German and
American physicians thus agree, al
though studying the subject under diff
ferent conditions. -:
What does cause rheumatism thene
Many pains called rheumatism are not
rheumatism at all. What purports to
be sciatica or lumbago is quite often
caused by fall or a jar which partly
dislocates the frame work of bones
which support the loins and lower part
of the back. Many a case Of supposed
rheumatism in the feet is really caused
by giving way Of the arch Of the
foot. Long, hard marches even cause
actual fractures of little bones. of the
foot at times. Eliminating all these
as not true rheumatism, majority of
the cases. remaining are found to be
true infections by the rheumatism
germ. Acute inflammatory rheumatism
has long been known to be caused by
a germ, but the war has brought out
emphatically the point that 50 called
chronic rheumatism is also often due
to a germ although Of much milder
type.

LOCATING WATER WITH THE

the suggestion of death. Pilgrims are
forever climbing the hills to view the
wonder. The price Of hill land mas ao-

using the so>called witch to locate

carefully done there need never be a
mistake. OF course where no water IS,
no water will be found, but water IS
nearly everywhere. Sometimes the
water witch fairly twists out Of the
hands, so strong is the attraction. The
explanation of its principle is simple.
The water in the ground is under ter
rife pressure, which causes an lnaudl-

NATURES WISDOM: MANS FOL-


Northwestern Agriculturist: Nature
has wisely put the elements OF soil fer
and nitrogen-not
in what man eats put in the by-pro-
duets, in order that the soil may feed
man without depicting itself. But man
wastes.
Phosphorus in the kernel Of wheat
is seven one hundredths Of one per
cent; in the bran thirty-two one-hun-
dredths-neary five times as much.
Without Phosphorus, soils are barren.
Yet how many farmers, selling wheat
off from their farms, never recover the
bran to feed to stock, and thus re-phos-
phorize their soils!
Four-ffths of the ocean of air con-
sists Of nitrogen, the most important
element of soil. Nature gathers that
nitrogen and stores it in the soil,
through the legumes beans, peas, al
falfa, clover-working for fertility.
How many farmers never plant the
legumes!
All the elements Of soil fertility are
in the skim milk, not in butterfat.
How many farmers ignore the feeding
value of skim milk in keeping up the
richness of their farms!
In the ocean Of nitrogen we permit
our soils to die of thirst for nitrogen!
In the storehouse of phosphorus we
starve! We prize the infertile butter
fat and despise the fertile skim milk!
Nature is a miser; man spend
thrift.

MINNESOTA PUBLIC HEALTH AS.
ISOLATION
ADVISORY Commission)

(AdVisOry COmm1sslOn)
Public enthusiasm for the establish
ment of county sanatoria for the care
of the tuberculous cases in Minnesota
is being aroused in all parts of the
state. There is being as much discus
sion of the legislative work Of the
State Advisory Commission as Of any
other body seeking constructive laws.
During the past week there have
been many meetings and conferences
of county commissioners relative to
the most practical sites for county in
situations. Last Wednesday the coun-
ty commissioners Of Todd, Wadena and
Crow Wing counties met at Staples.
DIR. Robinson Bosworth, executive sec
rotary of the advisory commission, ex-
planned the purpose Of the movement
to get county sanatoria and asked sup
port Of certain amendments to the
1913 law to make it's scope and intiu-
ence broader. The commissioners Of
these counties favor the proposition
and it is probable that it will not be
long before site is selected.
LIE Sueur and Martin counties will
vote on the question at their spring
elections. At recent meeting in
Mankato, the county commissioners
from LIE Sueur, Martin, Nicollet,
Brown, Watonwan, Fillmore and Wa
SEGA counties were present, and only
the action of the first named two coun-
ties is needed to insure one OF the
largest sanatoriums in the state at
Mankato. State aid Of $4,000 will
be asked for.
If the appropriation Of $4,000 for
use in the next two years is granted, it
will be possible to give state aid to
every county now wanting to establish
sanatorium of it's own or to join
with other counties in the project.
