The selection of seed corn

Importance to us than ever be-

something. The continued cool

though ideal for small grain, has
not been the best to ripen off
corn and many people who are
in the habit of selecting their
seed corn during the erly part
of September, will find the corn

Thoughts To Keep in Mind
System means efficiency.
Il - ooo2~4sz1 L.

System means efficiency.
It is essential to success.
Consult men of experience,
but do your thinking.
Always keep posted about the
details of your business or it
will slip away from you.
The man who succeeds plans
for success; the one who fails
seldom has any plans at all.
A wise ccess-seeker profits
by the experience of those who
have camped along the trail be-
fore him.
Don't be content with doing
only your duty. Do more than
your duty. It's the horse who
finishes a neck ahead who wins
the race.-Andrew Carnegie.

not for war, but for defense and very
adequately prepared, and that the
preparation for the task is not merely
technical matter. 1t is not matter
that the army and navy alone can
take care Of, but matter in which
wesmust have the cooperation OF the

Note Expected to be Delivered in Ber-

is Anxiously Awaited.
NAY Be TEN DAYS OF WAITING

the Controversy With England and

Berlin foreign Office would take that
into consideration and adopt a con-
,ciliatory attitude SO that Germany
might be able to take advantage of
any change of policy later on.
1t was not expected that the Ger
man reply will reach this country for
another ten days. Ambassador Bern
storff's communications to his govern
ment, now being carried Germanward
by Gerhardt, cannot get there until
the latter part Of this week. Count
Won Bernstorff has impressed upon
the German government that sugges-
tions he has sent are Of the most ex-
treme importance. Because Of this
fact, the president will not ask Am
.bassador Gerard to hurry the reply.
He will be instructed to deliver the
note and then to keep in touch with
the German government until the reply
is complete.
AS heretofore, Ambassador Gerard
is expected to keep the president well
informed Of the trend of official opin-
ion. 1t is certain the reply to the latest
note will be passed on by a cabinet
council, but 1t is hoped by officials
here that the kaiser personally will

WASHINGTON, June 10.--Ameri-
cas- eyes were anxiously turned to-
ward Berlin today: The note which
forced Secretary Bryan from, Presi-
dent Wilson's cabinet, was expected
to be delivered there this afternoon.
On its receipt by the German govern
ment and the. position the kaiser and
his advisers adopt, hinges peace or
war for the United States. Off Glars
here say that even German defiance
wouldn't mean actual hostilities, but
there Is not single individual in
touch with the inside of the situation
who believes diplomatic relations can
be broken of calmly. Ambassador
Gerard's recall under existing condi
tons, 1t is agreed, would have to be
followed by steps to maintain this
country's position. That the steps OF
necessity would be of nature to call
for action by Germany il generally
admitted
The president and his advisers were
hopeful however, that the German
government would be conciliatory.
While the note asks assurances that
Germany will abide by the recognized
precepts OF International law in the
future conduct OF its submarine war
fare, the president believes the kaiser
VIII give such assurances. Germany
argued with the United States that
she vas forced to disregard certain
accepted rights by the illegal activi-
ties OF her les, who she charges,
have f1agrantly, she insists, violated
every principle Of int national law.
Ihe United States is asking simply
mat Germany agree to respect Amer
lcan rights. however, and the presi-
uent is hopeful that this could be
done
The chief fear expressed was that
secretary Bryan's withdrawal under
existing conditions would be misun-I
aerstood in Berlin 1t. seemed certain
mat it would stiffen the backs Of the
military element. In as much, how
ever that Bryan has declared himself
hopeful that American public senti-
ment would be reused to influence the
President, officials suggested that the
