NOT TO BE CAUGHT MAPPING
Uncle Tobe Lived Up to His Reputa-
ton and the Doctor Lost
His Bet.

There lives in a certain Vermont
town a quaint old character known
as Uncle Tobe," who is SO con-
servative of action and speech that It
is almost difficult at times to get any.
thing definite from him. Uncle Tobe,
like the Father of His Country, has the
reputation of never having told a lie.
and in addition he is so cautious Of
statement that he has never been
known to tell an innocent untruth.
On one occasion his doctor, In con-
versation with friends touching Uncle
Tobe's characteristics, ventured to- lay
q bet Of five dollars that he could cause
Uncle Tobe to tell what wasn't so. A
neighbor promptly took the bet.
The doctor walked into Uncle Tobe's
house next morning, and while he was
talking with the old man, the neighbor
who had taken the bet drove up to the
gate. Uncle Tobe went to see what he
wanted, and then the doctor, as he had
agreed to do, went out the back door
and hid in the barn.
Good morning, Tobe," said the Wis
itor, rs the doctor in your house?"
HE was there when l came out"
said Uncle Tobe.

AmmunltIon Used In War.

How much ammunition does mod
ern army use? We shall not know
until after the war what the German
and the allied forces have been ex-
pending; but we know what the Ger
mans used in 1901. The total for
rifles was 30,OOO,OOO cartridges, for
field artillery 100000 rounds. 1t is
worth noting that battles are much
less costly in ammunition than sieges.
The siege of Strassburg alone cost,
weight for weight, three times the
amount of ammunition used in all the
decisive battles and actions through
out the whole war. OF course these
figures are a mere bagatelle COM
pared with those of the present strug-
gle, with its millions of soldiers and
its quick-fring guns and its week-long
battles.-Mancheste Guardian.

WINTER COMFORT FOR cows
Good Shelter Should Be Provided and
Liberal Supply Of Feed Laid in
to Keep Up Milk Flow.

This is the season of the year when
the dairy farmer should take steps to
make his cows comfortable during the
winter months. An uncomfortable
COW is not good producer. Good
shelter should be provided and sup
ply Of the right kind of feed laid in,
so that the milk flow will not suffer
at a time when the market prices are
the best. This subject is discussed by
R. M, Washburn Of the Minnesota
College Of Agriculture, as follows:
Gold winds and rains are costly.
They chill the COW, just as they would
a warm stove, entailing the burning of
more fuel, To avoid this the farm
er should provide protection early.
THE ration at this transition period
between summer pasturing and win
ter feeding is important. ANY COW
that has been giving milk since last
spring will decrease her flow rapidly
If she is not fed literally. The result
will be greatly reduced profit from
the dairy herd during the winter
months.
I'VE are nearing the season when
butterfat brings the highest price.
Farmers will recognize the wisdom
Of keeping up the milk flow through
this period.
"I do not advocate the feeding of
much grain at this time. What is
fed should merely supplement a ra.
ton composed largely of late grasses,
pumpkins, soft-shelled squash, roots
and small potatoes.
Many Of the farmers do not be-
.ieve that the small potatoes are
worth picking up, not realizing that
five pounds of potatoes are worth as
much as one pound Of grain. They
may be brought in and put on the
barn floor, where, If they are COW
cred with hay to keep off the frosts
and prevent light freezing, they can
be kept for long time, and will take
the place Of a considerable amount of
expensive grain or mill feed. Frozen
potatoes, however, should not be fed
to COWS. They react unfavorably on
the digestive tract.

BERLIN CHANGES FRONT.

Recent messages from Berlin have
brought profound relief TO this cOun-
try. They are accepted as virtual as
surance that Germany will make prop
er amends for the Arabic attack. even
If she persists in her stubborn refusal
to grant reparation for the Lusitania
victims. At any rate, the war clouds
are dissolving. And that is an in
caIculable blessing for both nations.
The German people do not want war
with US, and certainly we do not want
war with them. our quarrel has been
with a few wrong headed statesmen in
Berlin. who not only directed the ma
val crimes that interrupted the friend
ship OF the two nations. but directed
the German propaganda of ''frightful-
ness" and of popular hostility TO Amer
lea that have driven the two nations
farther and farther from mutual I'M
derstanding.
Now, it apears. those militarist-
statesmen are coming to their senses
and trying to repair the harm already
done. Chancellor Won Bethmann-Hol-
veg has said, or at least has allowed
the inference TO be drawn, that the
submarine captain who sank the Ara
bic must have exceeded his orders
that instructions had been issued for
naval commanders under all circum-
stances to protect the lives OF Ameri-
cans. If this is true, there will surely
be disavowal and repaTation, and 4
better understanding for the future
Moreover. if it is true, it means that
Germany. even while refusing to yield
TO our demands in a written or spoken
pledge. had definitely decided to yield
and had modified her sea warfare &C
cOrdingly. The German government
would have been far wiser if it had
suited the word to the act, instead of
behaving like a naughty child who
when rebuked. insists that he won't
be good"-even while he's mending
his behavior.
