THE GOLD IN THE FRENCH
STOCKING

The great success OF the French
war loan proves once more how
thrift and patriotism go hand in hand
in the republic.
In January, 1912, before interna-
tional bankers had begun consciously
or unconsciously to prepare for the
war, the United States held in gold
81, 7S0,0O0,O00, mainly in the treasury.
Great Britain held $7ll 100000 and
France 81 1000, 0OO, 600; in both coun-
tries it circulated freely, but in
France it also bulged out the toe OF
many a wooden stocken. Germany
had a much smaller amount.
There has been initiation in each
country. Britons boast that the Bank
of England by it's discount rate can
draw gold out of the ground" and
in spite of heavy shipments here the
banks holdings have recently run
$l0O,0O0,000 or more above 1913, aver
aging some $3O0,000,000 On Monday
the lmpreial German bank held $685.
100000 gold as a basis for $1,453,O0O,-
900 paper; the Bank Of France $780,
100000 gold on which $~2,S4O,OOO in
paper was outstanding. France had
also raised money by issuing short
term treasury notes, by a smaller is
sue OF treasury "obligations"-prac-
tically 1913 year bonds-and by Dor
rowing from England on gold sent
thither. The bank borrowings and
short-term notes are simply an uIl-
funded debt.
The national wealth Of France is
estimated at $4,000, 00O, OO0-but over
and above all Indebtedness, private or
public. Her material wealth, there
fore, is considerably greater. Her
people hold, according to Raphael
Georges Levy $S,00O,0G0,0O0 of for
eign securities. They owned in Aug
ust, 1914, $S00,000,0OO OF American
securities alone, of which they have
sold only one-tenth. But the chief
strength of the country i'll finance as
in the field, is confidence.
Faith in France and the gold in the
stocking have once more served tne
republic.

ON THE ROAD TO PLENTY

Prosperity has been slow in RETURN
ing, but it is hitting the high PLACES
at last.
From all parts of the country come
reports of renewed activity. Factories
are resuming operations on full run
ming time; industries that have lain
dormant for years are sprining into
existence again; labor is i'll demand
everywhere, and gold is pouring into
this country from abroad in an end
less stream.
1t is the history OF this country
that following a period OF depression
comes a long period OF prosperity,
and all reports indicate that the pros
perity OF 1916 will be the greatest

Winter is a critical time for sheep.
The greatest danger is in close sta
bling and lack of exercise. If well
fed with good clover hay and good
straw, and with an abundance of pure
water to drink, an open shed with an
uncovered, dry yard attached, is bet
ter than any stable or tightly closed
shed. Warmth is more injurious than
cold, and sheep may safely be trusted
to exercise their instincts in seeking
shelter. 1t is we'll to divide the flock,
making three divisions; rams, wethers
and ram lambs in one flock, ewes m
lamb in another and fattening sheep
in another. AS changes may be seen
desirable they should be made, and the
food should be given according to the
wants of each lot
1t is a good plan to give all sheep
little grain every day in winter.
Give fattening sheep one pound OF
corn per head per day. An expert
feeder, who has been feeding sheep
for number of years, says: "The
man who makes a success in feeding
sheep or meat cattle is the one who
gives close attention to the daily feed
ing and care of the flock. 1t is not
necessary for him to do the actual
work, but he should be there to see
that it is done" Keep only the strong
est and healthiest sheep. For winter
fattening we want sheep that have got
their full growth and are in good
thrifty condition Merino sheep for
this purpose should be three or four
years old. Commence with a small
grain ration and gradually increase the
feed. Salt should be given; it is good

KAISER TO CONFER
WITH AMBASSADOR
AMERICAN REPRESENTATIVE IN.
vlTED TO VISIT EMPEROR
AT BATTLE FRONT.
Believed That American Note Has
Produced an Impression Of Impor-
tance.-Outcome Regarded
With Keen interest.

Washington. Press reports an
nouncing that the German emperor
had invited Ambassador Gerard to
confer with him at the battle front
were read Sunday night with keen In
terest by officials of the United States
government. Aside from the indica-
ton that the American note had pro-
duced an impression of supreme i'm
portance, 1t was thought that the en-
peror had decided on conference so
quickly because only four days re-
manned before the German admiralty's
proclamation for submarine cam
paign on merchant ships goes into
effect.
1t was believed here that the am
bassador might explain at length the
American viewpoint as he is reported
to have done in a conference with
the imperial chancellor, and that per
haps one of the chief purposes of the
informal conferences with Ambassa
dor Gerard was to elicit from the
American government some under
standing as to it's position regarding
shipments of conditional contraband
destined to Germany's civilian popu
lation. Inasmuch as the German sea
war zone proclamation is described
as a retaliatory step against the al
lies because of the alleged interior
ence by the latter with shipments Of
foodstuffs destined for the population
of Germany, the growing Importance
of this question was generally admit
ted here. There is every reason tt
believe that it will be one of the chic
points made by the United States il
its next communication to Great Brit
ain on the subject of contraband.

BOTTLE FOR THE CHICKENS

Refreshing in Summer.

A new drinking fountain for fowls
is made on the principle of the Their
mos bottle, and by its use the water
supply in the barnyard is kept cod
in summer and reasonably warm in
winter. This solves one of the great
difficulties of the chicken yard. In the
winter time it is necessary to visit the
chicken yard many times during the
day to supply water to the birds, for the
reason that the usual receptacles made
use of soon freeze up tight and the
chickens are deprived of water. One
might think that by placing warm wa

INCREASE THE WHEAT YIELD
Intensive Farming Means the Utiliza-
tion Of the Plant Crop to the Very
Highest Advantage.

Intensive cultivation means making
the soil produce more than the aver
age. 1t is easily possible to make an
acre of ground produce two, three and
even four and five times as large a
crop of plants as it grew under aver
age, common methods. But intensive
farming implies more than this. 1t
means not only making the acre pro-
duce more, but it is also utilizing the
total plant crop to the highest adyan-
tage, or in other words, selling 1t in
some way so as to make it bring a
much higher market price. A farmer
who could take a field that had been
producing 20 bushels of wheat to the
acre, say, and through better meth
DDS increase the yield to 40 bushels
to the acre would be considered an
expert wheat grower and very good
farmer. Wheat at dollar a bushel
from the former yield would bring $40
to the acre while at the latter yield II
would bring $40, twice as much cash
and more than twice as much net
profit. as the cost of growing and har
vesting large acreage crop is but
little more than for a small yield.

SIX-ROWED BARLEY is BEST
Leading MaItsters and Brewers Prefer
It to Any Other variety-ls

By r. A. STONE.D

I. ES-D
In the rotation barley follows corn,
peas, potatoes or root crops to best
advantage. 1t is one of the best nurse
crops to use where the desire is to
seed down to clovers or mixed grasses,
because it uses less moisture than
oats or wheat, is removed from the
land early and, being shallow-rooted, is
not heavy user of soil fertility.
Barley serves as a ready money
crop for most growers and is usually
put on the market soon after thresh-
ing. 1t is not good practice to put
weather-beaten or damaged barley on
the market, as the price will be cut
severely even though the feeding quail
ity is but slightly impaired. It is far
better to use such injured barley on
the farm and secure both feeding and
fertilizing value from it.
Different varieties should not be
mixed when being put on the market,
either as seed or mailing barley.
Farmers should grow but one variety
Of barley and that of the very best.
Different varieties of barley when
placed on the mailing. floor for sprout-
ing terminate at different periods OF
time, which leads to positive loss on
mixed types of barley, and CORE
spending reduction in price. The
maltsters desire a barley of one dis
tinct type and this should be uniform
