FAIMERs SHOULD ADVERTISE

The thing that keeps the machinery
fabricated and makes the wheel so
round in every kind Of business is ad-
ysrtising. Publicity i'm one form or
another has become the Keynote OF
commercial success, and without II the
machinery stops, or at best moves with
uncertain unsteady jerks, and many

peal to the farmer, and this heretofore
excessively conservative and retiring
husbandman will soon be doing his
share OF exploitation.

which he advocated campaign OF
advertising for the farmer and paru-
cularly for the one who specializes in
commodities that find a city market.
He said he believed farms should have
distinctive names and that the things
that came from each farm should be
advertised as products thereof. In
this way. he pointed out, producers
OF reputable commodities would soon
win recognition for whatever they
dealt in.
A campaign of such advertising

BRooDING THE CHICKS

So far. the spring has been unusu-
ally cold and dark, and the tempta
ton is TO keep baby chicks confined
too closely to the brooder. This is
mistake; you can't possibly grow the
best chicks in a constantly heated at
mosphere. Have a runaway for them
out in the open air, if but for "A few
minutes at a time We would rather
have them out ON the snow than con
fined To the heated chamber. Have
plenty of soft litter on the floor of the
brooder, both for purposes of absorp
ton, and also because the toes will be
come twisted. and sometimes the legs
straddled from running on wood
floor, If the chicks simply can not
get on the ground, bring some ground
To them fill shallow box with moist
not wet, loan, and sprinkle a little
food i'm it. Continuous heat will show
itself i'm claw-like legs and toes, some
times in leg weakness, the chicks will
apparently be thriving. then they will
get down on their knees, and apparent
ly lose power over their legs. Whole
some food is important and must be
had for success, but fresh air and con-
tact with the earth are also important.
If the broder has been used before,
look out for lice and mites; these pests
Will live over winter and be starving
hungry for the feast OF tender chicks
unless the brooder has been treated
two or three times. The first treat
ment never kills the nits: 20 do per-
manent good, the treatment must be
repeated. Don't let the chicks crowd
at night: crowding makes runts. If
they are piled up, the brooder is too
cold; they should be spread out over
the floor like a downy carpet with
their heads pushed out from under
the hover.

PEACE WITH ITALY.
Purpose of kaiser's Visit to Vienna
 Says Pail Mall Gazette.

London, Nov. 30, 1:27 D. m.--The Pail Mall Gazette, associating Emper- or Williams visit to Vienna with re- ports that Germany is willing to en- ter upon peace negotiations, ventures the opinion that as already suggested, the emperor's trip to the Austrian capital may represent a fresh att tempt to bring about conclusion of a separate peace between Austria and Italy. He says: Some features of Italy's attitude may lend encourage ment to such an enterprise. The governmen a Rome, for reasons nev- CT disclosed, has refrained from de- claring war on Germany and has shown no particular eagerness to CO., operate with the allies in restoring the situation in the Balkans

ALLIES VIOLATED
 GREEK TERRITORY
Overseas News Agency Says Greece Was Asked to Re
 nOunce Her Sovereignty.

Berlin, Nov. 30, (By wireless to Sayville) The position taken by the entente allies, as reflected in the semi official statement issued in Paris to the effect that the landing of troops at Sa1oniki was not 8 violation of Greek territory, is contradicted by the Overseas News Agency.
 Reports from various sources con- corning French and British threats against Greece fail to clear up the sit uation," the agency says. However, the general tone of the news from French and British sources indicates clearly that Greece has been asked to renounce her sovereignty.
 Attempts to justify this course are all in vain. M. Venizelos, the for mer premier, had not the right under the constitution to sanction the land ing of troops at Saloniki. The Greek constitution states, in clause ninety nine that the parliament is the only body which possesses the right to decide such questions. Therefore, King Constantine is merely defending the integrity of. the constitution against conspiracy. which shows that reproaches directed against him have no just basis.
 "The French and British attempts to compel small neutral nation to consent to the measures taken proves that the entente thinks might is right

ATTACK ON AMERICANS
 BY INDIANS FEARED
All But Fifty Carranza Troops Withdrawn from
 Yaqui Valley.

Topolobampo, Mexico, Nov. 30, by Radio to San Diego, Calif-Carranza forces again have opened communica- | tion between Guaymas and Hermosil- To, the capital of Sonora State, and General Dieguez is endeavoring to in tercept 2,5O0 Villa troops supposed to be heading through southern Sonora in an attempt to join General Ban dera, the Villa commander in northern Sinaloa, according to advices received here today.
 Fear of an attack by Indians on the American settlers in the Yaqui valley has increased, as all but fifty troops have been withdrawn from that vicinity to participate in the Car ranza campaign in the north.
 The necessity for maintaining an adequate garrison in the Yaqui val ley for the protection of Americans and other foreigners and thus pos strongly presented to General Dieguez in messages by Admiral Winslow, who is proceeding with his flagship, the cruiser San Diego, and an expedition- ary force for Topolohampo. The San Diego was reported last night off Cape San Lucas, the southern extremity of lower California.
 Naval officers who visited Los Mo- chis, the scene of the recent raids found foreign property in the outlying districts still held by the Indians. Car ranza officials stated, however, that these lands would be returned to their rightful owners as soon as they had been recovered.
 Owing to the presence of Carranza troops in large numbers at Los Mo- chis, Americans who had taken refuge on the United States gunboat Annap- oils and those who had come for saf- ety to Topolobampo have decided to return to their homes at once

CONGRESS TO SIDESTEP
 RAILROADS AND I.C. L.
Legislation Affecting Them Not to Be Pressed Ac-
 cording to Leaders.

] Washington, Nov. 3O.-Legislati ion 1 affecting the railroads and the in- l terstate commerce commission in the ] opinion of administration leaders in l close touch with the subject, prob l ably will not be pressed at this ses- 1 sion of congress.
 ] There is pending in the senate com 1 n1ittee on interstate~ commerce the ] bill considered at length last session 1 to give the commission jurisdiction 1 ever the issuance of railroad securi- 1 ties. There also is movement which has attained considerable impetus to enlarge the membership of the com l mission. Both subjects undoubtedly will be given attention early in the coming session, but it is doubtful if either will be pressed for action for another year.
 Regarding the railroad securities
 bill a difference of opinion has arisen
 in the minds of democratic members
 as to the extent of authority that
 should be given the cimmission over railroad stock and bonds. Some think that compulsory publicity of railroad
 assurances would be sufficient, while
 others believe the commission should
 have direct regulations of the is-
 suance of securities.
 As a result of this difference of
 opinion, together with the unusual
 conditions brought about in regard to transportation requirements during
 the war, there is a movement among leading democrats in congress to turn the whole question of railroad securi- ties and the enlargement of the in terstate commerce commission over to a joint congressional committee for thorough investigation and report With regard to reorganization of the commission suggestions have been
 made that the membership be in creased from seven to nine and that the commission be divided into de- partments. Senator Nlewlands, chair r,an of the interstate commerce com- l mission said today that this subject, together with the railroad securities till, probably would be taken up for ] consideration, but in his opinion. such matters would be submitted to
