ing-press. They are certainly doing it..
From the banking standpoint, both France
and Russia, like Germany, are undoubt-
edly insolvent.
The present financial weakness of
France is not inherently her own. The
weak spot is really Russia. From he day
that France and Russia became allies,
France has invested enormous sums in
Russian securities, especially in govern
ment bonds. She can not realize on these
investments now, owing to Russia S
money embarrassments; and she there
fore finds herself in the position of a man
whose savings bank has temporarily closed
its doors.
The Terrific Cost of This War
RUT France and Russia, financially
weak as they are, have one great
advantage in the financial backing Of
England. The stupendous fact is that
English bank-notes are still redeemable
in gold.
Already England is lending France and
Russia money at the rate of 81 900 100000
a year, or nearly half as much as the cost
of our own four years Civil War. Except
for England's financial aid. these coun-
tries could not purchase the large supplies
of ammunition, food, and other materials
they need
The mechanism of this monster tinan-
cial operation, the greatest the world has
ever known, is simplicity itself. England
pays foreigners, for the most part Ameri-
cans, actual gold for these French and
Russian supplies, and takes from France
and Russia their own government bonds
in payment.
If YOU have an obligng friend who
pays your tailor bill and accepts from
YOU as satisfaction your promissory
note. he does precisely what England
is doing for France and Russia to-day.

municipalities also organized similar head
quarters of initiation. These banks had but
a single purpose-to issue paper money.
Their business was to supply credit in this
shape to almost any private person or
business concern that demanded it. Con-
sequently practically anybody in Ger
many who wants money now can obtain

issues credit on the basis of securities or
merchandise.
These facts throw new light upon the
German bond issues which, apparently,
have had such great success. They
amount already to nearly $1,000, OOO.O 900.
In issuing a circular urging the people to
subscribe to the government loan, the
Wolf Agency, under the approval of DR..
Helfferich. the Minister of Finance, pub
lished remarkable statement. There
was no reason why holders of previous
loans, this circular said, should not sub
scribe. All they had to do was to pledge
the holdings of such previous loans with
the banks. and receive currency with
which they could make their new sub
scrptions. Just what does this statement
meano
Surprising, for example, that the pa
trotc German has shares of stock of al
most any character. He pledges these at
one of the new banks, and receives the
new kind of currency. With this he
purchases government bonds. The time
comes when the Empire issues another
loan The bond-holder takes his bonds to
the bank and receives more paper money
in exchange. and with this he invests in
the new loan.
The German government. of course can
keep this scheme up for an indefinite
period. The Empire simply issues large
quantities Of bonds and gets masses of
paper money in exchange. With this she
pays the expenses of the war. The plan

~ the many contriyances utilized
for fighting this European war,
one has escaped popular obser-
~ walton. We have heard little about
the printing press. And yet, this engine
of warfare is working twenty-four hours
day. 1t is turning out the money that
supplies the armies, pays the troops, and
provides the necessary support for trade
and industry in Germany, and-in lesser
degree-in France and Russia also.
Many nations have financed their mill
tary operations with paper money. The
United States used it in the Revolution
and in the Civil War. In practically all
previous instances, however, governments
have resorted to the printing-press only
as a last resort. They have resorted to it
only after using up all their gold, and
after eXhausting their borrowing capacity
abroad.
Germany had large stores of gold when
the war broke out and she has added to
them largely ever since. But she is not
Practically, it no longer plays any part
in her banking system. Merchants can
not get it on any terms; even the banks
can not use it as a basis for circulation.
Germany's Gold Has Disappeared
NO; Germany has slowed away her
hoard of gold-perhaps 5000, DOC, 900.
As far as the nation itself can see, this
great treasure has disappeared. In place
of this Germany has issued millions and
millions in paper money, which the people.
under the impulse of German discipline
and German patriotism, are accepting as
actual money.
Granted the certainty of German sue
cess, this operation is not imitation. In
the case of a great military failure,
however, the world will see national bank
ruptcy on a scale for which history con-
tans no parallel. In case the Allies over
whelm the German nation, Germany may
find that she has modified all her gold
merely for their benefit. England would
take the hoard and use it for the recon-
structon of Belgium, northern France,
and. Poland Then Germany would have.
for her economic reconstruction, nothing
but mountains of worthless paper. The
financial Imagination shudders at such Il
prospect.
",There will be plenty of war loans,
a great Berlin banker recently said to "A
correspondent; "but our enemies will pay
them all--the armies will redeem them"

will ultimately reimburse their ally-if
the Allies win. But if the Allies lose?
England, for herself and her allies, is
spending S5,OOO,OOO,OOO year. She is
spending each year twice as much as we
spent. for the entire Civil War, and con-
siderably more than she spent in her
twenty years struggle with revolutionary
France and Napoleon.
How Is England Doing it,
WHERE is England getting all this
money? For, in her case, it represents
real money, not the output of the printing
press. Another pertinent question is, how
long can she keep it up?
A study of British wealth reveals an
apparent capacity to finance the war in
definitely. In time of war, the British
Empire can levy upon this wealth in any
way she pleases: if necessary she can send
her agents into the banks and directly
appropriate it, Financial CONSUMPTION,
appropriating the fortunes of her citizens,
is just as legal in wartime, as military
CONSUMPTION, which appropriates their
bodies.
In assessing the financial strength of
England, therefore, we must take into
consideration the nations storehouse of
wealth. England needs $1,000, GOO, 600
year to carry on this war. What is the
national income?
Statisticians usually figure this at
$4,000, 100000 year. The larger part
of it goes, of course, to the support of the
English people. With this income 49,
100000 English people pay their house.
rent and their butchers and bakers bills,
educate their children, buy theater tick
cts and other things. They save about
$1,000, 100000, which ordinarily finds its
way into permanent investments. These
large savings obviously represent the first
resource for war purposes. If English
men, instead Of investing this $2,OOO,OOO,-
600 Unfortunately, will buy government
bonds. the Exchequer will already have
secured two tifths of the amount needed
for its huge war expenses.
But one difficulty Immediately presents
itself England derives its twelve billions
of revenue in considerable part from the
profits of certain gainful occupations. The
three greatest items are its foreign
trade. its shipping. and its banking profits
for England is normally the worlds
banker.
War, of course. considerably affects
these earnings. How much income England
has lost in this way can not now be esti-
mated. In spite of losses, English indus
try is still going on at IA tremendous rate.
She is still exporting more than S2.OOO.-

A Convincing Experiment.

1t does not need any special argument
or showing of facts to convince Wiscon-
sin dairy men of the great superiority of
corn ensilage as an economic feed for
COWS. Those who have combined the
sirage with alfalfa hay get still better re-
suits.
But we know that there are skeptics
among our readers in other states. For
their special benefit We give the follow
ing brief account of trial carried on by
the Minnesota College of Agriculture:
Two hundred and sixteen cows were
fed on silage as compared with 239 cows
fed on dry rations. The results showed
that the silage fed cows produced SO lbs.
more of butterfat yearly per COW than
the other cows. This amounted to
SlS go per COW in favor of feeding 81
lage.
The following year another trial was
had with gain in favor of the silage fed
cows of Al lbs. of butterfat. The silage
fed cows consumed S7.19 worth of feed
more than the dry fed cows, but when
this is subtracted they still show decid-
ed gain over the others.
SO far as the harvesting an acre OF
corn and putting il into the silo, or har
vesting it for the crib and binding the
stalks, the cost is about the same. But

Of the court that the big man had won
the case. After half an hour the jury
was called and asked If n verdict had

man. I'VE only want to know which

Decrease Of Mutton Supply.

The breeding and feeding of sheep foi
the production of mutton is going
through a period Of change that results,
for the time being, In a decreased sup
ply. One OF the mark ed changes in diet
ic taste during the last ten years has
been the steady increase in the pOpulari.
ty of mutton as food for the American
people. Comparatively few years ago
sheep were raised for wool aud meat
might almost have been called by-prod-
uct. When wool production was the
principal feature of the sheep industry,
the natural result was marked f1uctua-
ton in the prosperity of the sheep grow
or. The wool came into competition
with the wool grown in all quarters OF
the globe, and because OF the depend
ence of the industry upon the price OF
wool, sheep growing became football
in politics through its dependence upon
tariff legislation.
The constantly increasing demand for
mutton led to radical changes in the
lish mutton breeds gradually supplanted
the Merinos aud wool producing breeds.
In spite of the fact that the total num-
Der of sheep sent to market doubled be-
tween 1900 and 1912, the popular de-
mand for mutton increased at still
more rapid rate, with the result, as il
now evident, that instead of selling only
the normal increase of flocks, there was,
in the latter part of the period, tend
ency to market part of the fiOcks them
selves.
The decrease in the receipts at the
five principal markets last year for the
IL months ending November 80, in com
parison with the same period of 1913,
amounts to $4,000 head. While this is
Q serious matter, in so far as 1t indicates
decrease in the supply of mutton at
time when the demand for mutton con-
tiuues to grow, it is really very salts,
factory condition, because 1t is evidence
of determination upon the part OF
sheep growers to stop the slaughter OF
fiocks, and by holding their ewes a,
home, again begin to rebuild the total
flocks of the country. The temporary
loss of meat which will be shown will be
far less important than the economic
gain which results from the disposition
