American children. The candy rab-
bits are Of pure chocolate and will
prove big Easter joys for the young
STEERS to bite off leg, then MUNICH an
ear and finally get Mr. Bunny slowed
away so that, as youngsters say,
'they amt no more'
A new idea in Easter rabbits is q
cloth bunny with large bag sewed
around his body. The bag is large
enough to contain a half dozen Easter
eggs. These are proving quite popular
with Easter shoppers. The novelty Of
the thing appeals, and no doubt hun
dreds OF American youngsters will re-
ce1ve their Easter eggs by way of
bunny and his bag.
There is multiplicity of Easter nov
elites in the shape Of rabbits hitched
to wagons. chariots and other vehicles.
The vehicles are devised to carry Eas-
ter eggs. Most Of the designs are not
new, but they are selling as rapidly as
some Of the newer ideas because they
are SO practical as a novel way to de-
liver the eggs to the children.
Jumping Toy Rabbits.
The bounding rabbits are going to be
the clowns of the Easter celebration
this year. Smart toymakers have con-
trived about half dozen different
ways to make toy rabbits jump and
make squeaking noise. These are
great fun producers, as they are in
reality mechanical clowns. They jump,
tumble over and rolfacross the floor in
way to bring screams Of delight from
the children and smiling interest
from the grownups. You see, the toy
makers have been clever enough to
know that the fathers and mothers of
the household are still childish enough
to enjoy mechanical toy. 1t was
Henry Ward Beecher who slipped over
great piece Of wisdom when he said,
NO man is really man who has lost
out of him all the boy" That applies
to the women as well, for it is an en-.
tirely human thing to like to "mon-
key with toys, it matters not how
rapidly the years have counted against
you.

THE old man and the boy stood
silently contemplating the nov
city and beauty Of an Easter
shop window. The display was
intended to catch the eye Of the child,
but the old man stood peering through
the glass and letting his thoughts run
back through reminiscent years to
when he was boy. He did not see
another old man a few years his jun

refecttvely at the windows Easter de-

DAIRY WISDOM.

The calf should always receive
the colostrum or first milk Of the
COW. This starts the digestive
organs into action.
Train the youngsters to lead.
No heifer should reach her first
birthday unbroken to the halter.
1t is great mistake to leave
the separator a day or two with
out cleaning.
Be sure to keep good, clean
bedding under the COWS and alb
sorbents in the cutters.
The greatest gains are made
when the COWS are warm and
comfortable. The food they eat
goes for production instead Of
fighting the elements.
The separator should be wash
ed every day, even if it stands
in cool place.

Is Welsh Stallinu?

For champion Freddie Welsh is fig
uring in a lot of draws. There has
been nothing decisive about any of his
victories since he came to this country.
and it is but natural that the pugilis-
tic loving public is beginning to doubt
the Welshman's prowess. But there
are those among his admirers who con-
tend that he never goes at top speed
unless he has to and that in order to
keep up interest in his bouts he is sat
isfied to let his opponents get as good
as an even break.
If this is true it proves Welsh to he
one of the most scientific boxers in
the history of the game, for fighter
who can stall we'll enough to fool a
lot of experts and the public has lot
on the average fighter.

NEWMAN TRAvELFEST.
story of "France and the War"
Told at the Columbia.


f. NJ. Newman opened his annual trav-
elfest with finely illustrated talk on
France and the War" at the Columbia
Theater last evening. In comfort and
safety. the travellers sped through the
waT-ridden country, viewing the military
activities and the many beauty spots
with which nature has adorned the lovely
land in which Mars now holds sway.
Mr.. Newman's entertaining program
contained large number of timely views
many of them dramatic in the extreme;
then. again, charming pictures Of nature
and man at peace, all immensely inter-
esting and instructive examples of the
motion picture art.
The beauties Of the French Riviera. of
Bordighera, Mentone. Monaco. Vile
franche. Nice. Cannes. and Grasse were
first shown, with notable motion views
of the Mediterranean breaking on these
rocky shores and of the famous carnival
at Nice
Then. passing through the Rhone VAL
ley and the cities of Aries, Mines, and
Avignon, to Paris-once uneQualed center
of art and fashion. of gayety and laugh
ter, and now an armed camp-Mr. New
man presented new and excellent color
views and motion pictures OF the impor-
tant environs OF this most fascinating of
cities now given over to the military,
and gave a clear idea of life in the
French capital in war time.
A trip was then made to the scenes OF
battle in Belgium, to Antwerp and other
cities with intimate views of King AL
bert and Gen. Joffre at the front. I'M
measurabIy pathetic are the ruined cities,
the devastated fields, and the highways
filed with stricken women and weeping
children in search of refuge and safety
in flight.
The travelogue will be repeated at 4:3O
o'clock this afternoon. Next Sunday
evening the course will be continued with
a beautifully pictured talk on Berlin"

RIVERS BILL MAY FAIL.
Burton Said to Plan FiIIbuster
Against Measure.

The river and harbor bill probably will
fail Of passage this session. The bill is
now under discussion in the House. and
has been bitterly attacked by Representa-
tive Frear. of Wisconsin, and other men,
bers. 1t is the understanding that Sena-
tor Burton, of Ohio, is determined to
start filibuster against the bill when II
reaches the Senate. Mr.. Burton was
largely responsible for the substantial re-
duction in the bill passed at the last ses-
sion. He claims that the pending meas
ure Is loaded" with unworthy projects,
and that If necessary he and others will
talk the bill to death.
The bill as it now stands carries ap-
proximately $34.OO0,OOO but it will be in
creased several millions by the Senate
Committee on Commerce. There will be
no trouble putting the bill through the
House, but friends in that body fear the
worst when the budget reaches the Sen
ate. AS the session will come to an end
on March a filibusterSwould be simple
thing to carry on. Present indications are
that the bill will be passed by the House
early in the week.

CATTLEMEN WANT RELIEF.
Need Money from Congress to Save
Suspected Animals from Markets,

Asserting a conviction that Congress
unwittingly is forcing the spread of foot
and-mouth disease, live stock exchanges
in Chicago, Kansas City, Oklahoma City
and East st. Louis, cattle raisers' asso-
Citations and country banks are asking
that Congress afford relief They ask
that the deficiency bill now in conference
be passed without further delay.
The measure carries an appropriation
OF S2,50oooo for an emergency fund to be
used in part by the Department of Agri-
culture in paying for cattle that have
already been destroyed. The department
has prepared vouchers for S1,OOO,OOO but
there is no money to pay them so they
are being held here. The result is that
the small banks that have advanced
money TO owners are not able to get it.
The theory is that if the government
would pay promptly and give assurances
that owners of destroyed cattle would
be fully reimbursed there would be no
future temptation to the owners to hurry
suspected animals to market
