REFUTES ASSERTIONS
 OF GERMAN AUTHOR
French Ministry of War Denies France and Great Britain Planted
 to Violate Neutrality.

Paris, March 25, 12:40 a. m.-- The French ministry of war issued last night a statement designed to refute assertions made in American news papers by the German military au- thor, General Friedrich won Bern hardi, to the effect that the French plan of concentration showed that the French and British governments had made careful preparations to violate the neutrality of Belgium, .,,,> q.
 The war niniStrySr statement eN- plains in detail that when war was declared the French army was con- centrated along the German frontier and that the Teutonic invasion of Bel gium compelled the general staff to change completely the disposition which had been arranged. But for this delay, it says, the Germans never would have been able to cross the Mouse. The question of the Brit ish army taking the field was not con- sidered, the war ministry asserts, ur- til after the violation of Belgium cn August 5. Its concentration was ef- fected behind Maubeuge from Aug ! ust IA to 24. Various orders are
 quoted to show that the French army was kept six miles from the frontier
 and ordered to leave to the Germans l the responsibility for opening hostil- | ities An order issued by the min 1 ister of war on August is quoted l as reading:
 1 Germany will attempt by false
 news to induce us to violate Belgia n
 neutrality. It is strictly forbidden under further orders for patrols or 1 even single scouts to cross the line 1 or for aviators to fly over Belgian ter
 ritory.''
 Net until August ,, the statement
 asserts, at the formal request of tl'e | Belgian government made the ple-
 ceding day, did the French tro IDS 1 enter Belgium.

however, before the court had ruled him guilty.
 As a matter of fact the law is such that no suit for damages can . oe brought as the result of any action of members of the police, or fire department or members of the board of health A year ago a little child was killed when the horses on one of the local departments wagons ran wild. The parents were given a small sum, but not out of any legal obligations, it was simply being dcne as an act of charity.

The Wheat Stopper.
(New York Times.)

Whether opening the Dardanelles, like gouging out the stopper of a bot tle, will be followed by an outpour- ing of Russian wheat remains to be seen. It is doubtful Normally, Rus sia is a large exporter of wheat via the Black sea, the Bosporus, and the Dardanelles, but there now are two reason why access to this source of food might fail to command the sup ply. One is that the Russian wheat crop last year was short, so that in any case the surplus for sale would be small: and tne other is that Russia naturally would desire in the present circumstances to conserve her food supply Since the beginning of the war last August exports of cereals have been prohibited except to allies in arms, and so far as results show the embargo might as well have in- cluded even the allies, for exports of wheat to the end of last cember, out of the 1914 crop, were nil against 12111OOOO bushels to'the end of De- cember out of the 1913 crops. Statis- tics since December are unobtainable, but it is doubtful if Russia has eX- ported any wheat at all out of the 1914 crops, which was 80,000,OOO bushels less than the 1913 harvest
 So, without the incentive of awr to protect her own surplus of food, Rus sia would have much less than usual to sell this year.
 It is a rema rkable fact that the wheat harvest was sub-normal last year not only in Russia. but also in
 Prussia, Hungary Rumania, and Italy Statistics on the, French croI are withheld. The only country in the northern hemisphere that pro.
 duced. a large surplus was the United
 States However, the worlds crop
 combining the 1913-1914 harvest o1 the northern hemisphere and the 1914-15 harvest of the southern hem
 isphere, is normal, almost to say
 abundant.
 There is actually no shortage o
 wheat in the world. But for the wal
 in Europe the price would probab.!
 be as low as last year, possibly lower
 say eighty cents, which in this coun 1 try would be at or below the Amer ican farmers estimate of the cost O i production. The present nigh pric' l of wheat, therefore, is owing not t' 1 an actual scarcity or to the imme 1 diate possibility of it, but to the eX i pectation of scarcity later. If tn war were to end at once, the l9l' crop in Europe could hardly be nor 1 mai. That is why all the countrie at war are so anxious to conserv' their food supplies and why Russi; would probably place an embargo upon wheat exports via the Black sei and the Dardanelles if they became very large. a.. The other side of it is that weather 1 favoring, the production of whea l outside of Europe will be abnormal I'planting having been wonderfully stimulated by the high prices Per capita consumption tends at the same time to fall So are supply and de-
 mand affected by the price.

REDFIELD EXPLAINS
 NEW SEAMEN'S LAW
Apparent Conflicts Result from Lan- guage of the Act in Several
 Sections.

Washington, March 25.-While jus tice department officials were cont1n- uing work. today on their opinion as to when provisions of the new sea- mems law would become effective, Secretary Redfield issued this state ment:
 'The following announcement ap- plies to sections of the seamen's s act of March 4, 1915:
 "1-Section 6 (forecastle accom- modations) applies to vessels of the United States the keels of which are laid on and after March 4, 1915, whether such vessels be built at home or abroad.
 ''2-Section fl by it's terms will ap- plv to vessels of the United States and foreign vessels on and after July l, 1915.
 ''3-Sections f, Ii and 13, will ap- ply to foreign vessels in the manner and at the times indicated in sections 1G, IT and 18 of the act.' MT. Redfield's statement is the eN- pression of commerce department of ficials as to apparent conflicts result ing from the language of the act in several sections, and which have brought numerous inquiries from ship ping men. Section IS of the act con- tains the general statement that 1t shall take effect eight months after . it's passage, With certain reservations as to foreign shipping, while sections and fl fix tho date of applications on some specific provisions. Other sections are held to be of such nature as to be involved with those specific provisions, and confusion arouse as to whether they would take the same dates of application.
 It was understood some justice de- partment officials were inclined to be- lieve the act would not become effec- tive until Nov. 4, under section IS.

 You're bilious! You have a throh~ ping sensation in avour head, a bad taste in your mouth your eyes burn, your skin is yellow, with dark rings under your eyes; your lips are parched. No wonder you feel ugly, mean and ill., tempered. Your system is full of bile not properly passed off. and what you need is Q cleaning up inside. Don't continue being a bilious nuisance to yourself and those who love you, and don't resort to harsh physics that ir'' ritate and injure.

The Rural School.

We suppose there is no com
munity in the United States that
would not look with powerful dis
pleasure on man who was known
to be in the habit of swindling
children out of their pennies; but
hundreds OF communities in the
United States swindle children out
of something much more precious
than pennies, with never a blush.
The educational gold brick, which
our fathers celebrated. is palmed
of year after year on great num-
Der of country boys and girls.
Not that our fathers celebration
was unjusti6ed. A little. ill.equip-
ped, one-teacher country school is
much better than no school at all;
but it remains today in many a
rural community where it has no
more business than an oxcart
would have as a pleasure vehicle.
A string of little old fashioned one
teacher country schools. with a
course of studies not at all related
to country life. in a rural district
where many farmers own automo-
biles is a scandalous fraud on
country youth.
The consolidated country school,

with adequately paid teachers and
