required when doing the cleaning in
the back part of house.
When shed roof poultry houses are
ventilated by means of cheese-cloth
covered openings in front. they are
easily provided with fresh air.
The general ground plan is to leave
the whole floor space free to be COW
cred with straw several inches deep
for scratching purposes. Laying hens
must be kept busy to prevent them
from getting too fat. In order to man
ufacture eggs the hens must be well
fed. The difference between fat hens
and laying hens depends upon the kind
of food rather than the quantity, but
the element of exercise has good
deal to do with the keeping of laying
hens In proper condition.
In these shed roof poultry houses
the droppings board usually is placed
under the low roof at the back. The
roosts are supported a few inches
above the droppings board and the
nest boxes are suspended underneath.
This work is all done in such a way
that the whole outfit may be taken out
easily and the whole inside of the
house may be thoroughly cleaned. The
easy cleaning proposition is worked
out in connection with all parts of the
house. Cleanliness means a great
deal in the poultry house.
The plan Of this particular design
further provides for a closedin room
for brooding coops. This room may
be divided by partition. or it may be
made into one room for the use of
houses. Some poultrymen use this
center room for the nest boxes as
well as for broody hens. The laying is
principally done in December, January
and February and brooding seldom
commences before March.
Shed roof poultry houses seem to
work out better than any other style
of roof when it comes to ventilation.
II is not easy to manage a poultry
house in such a way as to ventilate 1t
properly. The ventilation in all farm
buildings depends on a certain degree
OF warmth, Large animals, such as
cattle and horses, have considerable
body warmth, which sets the air in
motion. Fowls are so small that their
body heat is not sufficient to warm

DON'T THINK IT'S
A CHEAP COURSE

Quite a number of people seem
to think that the Lecture Course
which is managed by the High
School is going to be I. cheap aft
fair because We are giving them
their season tickets this year for a
$l.25 instead of 81 so for which
have before this year sold them.
The Course costs more this YEAR
than the previous years but on &C
count OF being able to hold these
entertainments in our new high
school building we are saving all
the rent which we had to pay out
for building to hold our enter
tainments
One of our numbers, The Meitser
singers Male Quartette travelled on

and surely the names of these two
Bureaus are enough to insure good
entertainment.

U. S. NOTE TO GERMANY READY
American Policy is Determined Finally
at Cabinet Session-Rights
Must be Upheld.

Washington, June 9.-The policy Of
the United States toward Germany
an insistance on the observance Of
neutral rights and the safeguarding
of the lives of Americans on the high
seas-was determined finally at a cab
met session.
Secretary Bryan's resignation had
been submitted and accepted when
the meeting convened and he took lit.
tie part in the discussion. The note
which is to be sent to Germany i'm
mediately was read over for the last
time to the cabinet by President Will
son. Suggestions of some minor
changes we're noted by the President
The resignation of Mr.. Bryan, whose
advocacy of course that under no
circumstances would involve the
United States in war, spread the i'm.
preston that the President and his
cabinet had decided finally that the
rights of the United States must be
upheld in any eventuality that may
arise. While no inkling as to the con-
tents of the note was given, it is
understood that an unfavorable reply
will mean the severance of diplomatic
relations with Germany, and that at
tacks on Americans thereafter might
lead to even greater complications.

FEW WAR PLAYS HAVE LIFE

thing except this-that they were SO
written as 70 deserve recognition from
posterity, or not; il they were they
got 1t, and If they were badly done,
nobody remembers them; certainly
the fact that they exploit passage at
arms, battle of war, never kept baG
plays out of the limbo Of forgetful-
ness.
Eryden's enormous product includes
at least two dozen war plays, and they
are the deadest in our literature. ac-

one ode devoted to them in spectacu-
lar way is spouted by every schoolbOy.
the plays of this poet in which war
as a spectacle figures even more
grandiloquently are quite lost to ALI
but the bibliophile.
The first war plays that naturally
recur to the Anglo-Saxon mind are
Shakespeare's histories. These are
war plays, indeed, il any exist in Eng
lish. Armies march and countermarch
through them, battles ere joined. lost
or won, cities are besieged and taken.
the sight and sounds Of sixteenth CEN

to deal with them.

States would not omit "any word or
any act" to protect it's rights. At
that time Mr.. Bryan made speech
counseling peaceful measures and eau
tious action. He gave his consent to
signing the note only after 1t was ten
tatively arranged that statement at
the White House should be issued and
transmitted to the German govern
ment, announcing that inasmuch. as
Germany had accepted the principle of
the peace treaties negotiated between
the United States and other countries,
differences between the two nations
might be adjusted by commission
of investigation. Opposition to this
course was most vehement in some
cabinet quarters, and the President
after having considered at length Mr.
Bryan's suggestion, finally disapproved
1t at the hour the note was sent
Some cabinet officers argued that such
an appendix to the note of May 13
would be construed abroad as a weak
ening of the American position, and
their counsel prevailed.
Since then the official relations OF
Mr.. Bryan with the President and
the other cabinet officers have been
somewhat strained, although the clos
est personal friendship has been main
tanned. Officials of the administra
tion were unanimous in their expires
sions Of personal regret. Secretary
Tumulty issued statement TO that
effect, and the President reflected the
same sentiment in his letter. Admira
tion and praise for the courageous
manner in which Mr.. Bryan had fough
for and held to his convictions were
expressed by officials on every side
including those who hed been mos
vigorous in their opposition to hi.
policies.
The strong personal attachment o
the President and Mr.. Bryan has Ions
been noticeable in their everyday con
ferences. Even as they met in tn,

greeting was one of affection and re
gard.

sLAv COUNTER OFFENSIVE is
MAKING ITSELF FELT ON
LOWER SAN RIVER.
TEUTONS EXHAUST SELVES
Galician Offensive Believed by Military
Experts to Have Nearly Spent
Itself-German Submarines
Sink 5 Norwegian Vessels.

London, June 10.-The big battle In
Galicia has not yet reached decision.
The Austro-Germans having crossed
the Dniester south of Lemberg, have
assumed the offensive further to the
south, and, according to the Austrian
official report have succeeded in push
ing the Russians back between KolO-
mea and Kalusz, in eastern Galicia.
This operation was necessary before
the Teutonic allies continued their ad-
vance forward Lemberg, as the Rus
sian attacks in the region of KolOmea
we're beginning to look dangerous,
after the Russians had, as reported
from Petrograd last week, inflicted a
rather severe defeat on the Austrians
in this district.
Russian Counter-Offensive.
British and Russian military opinion
Is that the Austro-Germans after their
big effort which regained for them the
greater part of Galicia have about ex-
hausted themselves and the view is ex.
pressed that they will soon have to
secure and fortify a line on which
they can Withstand the Russian coun-
ter-offensive, which has already made
itself felt on the lower San.
If the Russians position were really
dangerous these authorities say the al
lies would long ago have taken the Of
fensive in the west to relieve the pres
sure on the eastern front. 1t is true
that the French have been attacking
| at number of points between Rheims
| md the district north of Arras and
| have in some cases been successful in
gaining ground, but the British are
-emainirg quiet, and it can hardly be
| said that a general offensive in the
vest has begun.
German submarines continue their
activities.
Among their latest victims were
| three Norwegian vessels, the steamers
Trudvang and Glittertind, with iror
ore and lumber, respectively for Brit
ish ports and the bark Superb will
grain from South America for Queens
own.
Others sunk were the Belgian steam

and the trawler Pentland.
