Austro-Hungarian Minister of War;

tier.
The report current in Rome is that
Francis Joseph, Emperor of Austria.
Hungary, had absolutely rejected the
Idea of any territorial concessions to
Italy has been given authoritative de.
NAL. The situation in this regard
seems to be that the little Austria re.
luctantly disposed to concede is so in.
adequate compared to what Italy
would accept that an understanding
seems hopeless.

has arrived in Rome. where he will
be a guest OF King Victor Emanuel.
He is endeavoring to recover from
the effects OF his wound. II is the
opinion OF his doctors that the Crown

Why Tammany starves.

What title has Tammany to Federal
patronage? In 1918 1t was driven out
of power in the State and in the coun.
ty. An organization that loses all
the patronage It once held cannot
expect that its corruption and folly
will be rewarded by National ad.
ministration.
Had Tammany behaved itself in AL.
bany. 1t would still be in control Of
the State government. It would like.
wise be in control Of the county gov.
eminent II It had not nominated a
ticket in 1913 that smelled to heaven
It might be in control Of the city gov.
eminent. II is the fault of its own
leadership that Tammany is starving
to death.

m. today President A. w. Wilkerson
presided, with Messrs. Doane, Has
well, Doremus, Webb, Edge, Waldrop,

linimary surveys as could be arranged
for pending the sale Of the bonds.
The matter Of street paving came
up for discussion and Mr.. Haswell

DAIRY FARMING.

To successfully 30 into the dairy end
OF diversified farming you have got TO
have feed for your COWS. The Pro-
ducerConsume system OF ginning
gives you your feed from your cotton
seed and gives you the cash for the
oil and llnters from your cotton seed
The value OF the oil and llnters Just
about equals In dollars and cents the
price you have heretofore received for
cotton seed. leaving you the feed clear
profit. Hulls are now $500 per ton
and meal $4,000 per ton. How much is
your profit?
On this system OF ginning you need
have no fear OF the oil mill interest
putting us out OF business. for every
time they strike at us they help the
cause along. Suppose our plant were
I'm operation and the price OF cotton
seed go above the value OF products. we
will gin the cotton and the farmer sells
his seed to the oil mills as long as they
pay more than they are worth; but II
the price OF cotton seed 20 below the
value of products. we work the seed
and sell products, and the producer
gets the value OF his cotton seed. It's
guarantee that you will secure full
value for your cotton seed. Have you
ever gotten II before? The opportun'
ity Is open for you TO accept, and,
farmers. you can't afford TO continue
selling cotton seed at $500 and buying
meal at $4,000. when II was all yours at
the beginning. Take stock and help

NEW YORK DAY BY DAY.
BY CHARLES HENRY ADAMS.
One Prominent Out Of Five Bans
Divorce.

OlNOTNCs
New York, March 16.-What does
the modern church think about dl.
vorce?
Here are five answers to that Ques.
ton:
Dr. Percy Stickney Grant Of the
Church Of the Ascension: III mar.
rlage is founded on the affection Of
two persons for each other, as mar
rlage in America is supposed to be,
with the disappearance of such senti.
ment disappears the only ground for
the marriage. The present law Of
the Episcopal Church regarding d..
yorce is not Protestant, not English
and not modern"
Dr. George Clarke Houghton Of the
Church of the TRANSPORTATION ("the
Little Church Around the Corner') ::
81 can see little difference between
the way in which American divorce
is tending and the way Of free love
II man knocks his wife down, II a
woman has lover who is not her
husband-still / see no reason for a
divorce. A divorced woman remarked
is simply living In sin, so long as her
first husband exists on earth"
DIR. William Norman Guthrie OF St
Marks on the Bouwerie: 81 don't
believe in locking the stable door af-
ter the horse is stolen; believe in
keeping the thieves away from the
horse. Instead Of paying so much at.
tention to the divorce problem. We
ought to teach people TO get more
wonderful and beautiful things out
Of marriage. It means something be.
yond the happiness OF husband and
wife; II is an opportunity for CO.
operative self-sacrihe."
DIR. A. Edwin Keigwin OF the West
End Congregational Church: Thank
God there are courts where CONNER.
cialized marriages can be terminated.
But don't believe In playing fast and
loose with marriage. II two persons
marry on basis OF affection, cove.
nant exists between them and they
should live up to its obligations as
strictly as II II were a business cove.
nant."
DIR. John Haynes Holmes OF the
Church OF the Messiah: I'm most
cases II is simple honesty, to say
nothing OF morality and decency, to
sever the marriage relation outward
ly when II has already been severed
inwardly, believe. therefore, in the
granting of divorce, in order that a
marriage may be ended legally when
II has already been ended morally
Apparently the modern church is
beginning to realize the futility. Il
not the folly. Of prescribing prison
gang discipline for marriage. or the
FIVE prominent New York clergymeu
just quoted only one bans divorce un

THE PosToFFlcE DEPARTMENT
SURPLUS.

While we are always glad to com.
mend the good work which Postmaster
General Burleson has done in his de-
partment, fairness compels us to say
that the check for $3,5OOOOO turned
over by him to the Treasury Depart.
ment a day or two ago, supposed to
represent the surplus in the revenues
Of the department for the fiscal year,
does not represent a surplus OF that
size in the ordinary use OF the word.
In the first place, It is generally
recognized that the Postoffice Depart.
ment does not pay fair price to the
railroads for the transportation of
parcel post goods, or at least that II
has not done so in the past. In the
second place, II has been stated-and
we have seen no ontradiction-that
the accounts of the department do not
take into consideration any rental
charges for buildings occupied or OF
interest payments on capital invested
in these buildings such as a private
corporation must necessarily con.
slider. And there are no payments OF
taxes.
So far as We know, previous ad
ministrations have all followed the
same course, and in turning in a "sur
plus" where those other administra
lions have shown deficits Mr.. Burle
son proves that, comparatively speak
ing, he has done excellently But the
Surplus" really should not be so de
scribed. Baltimore Sun.

The Manure Pile.


We have great respect for manure
and often feel that common, ordinary
manure deserves a blue ribbon Just as
much as fancy ear OF corn or prize
winning heifer at the county fair. Yet
some people, even farmers. look down
on manure, describing IL by short.
ugly word not used in either polite or
good society. They seem to think that
handling manure Is beneath a mans
dignity, and the hauling Of IL out is
left to the hired man. or course. ma

with pleasure, recognizing with the

Profltable Dairy Farming.

Uncle Sam.-that Is TO say that
part Of the American population that
farms,-keeps three Immense herds
Of dairy COWS; each herd contains
seven million head and occupies a
farm the size OF the state Of IllinOisl
One Of these herds lacks $50 900, 900
annually Of paying for its keep. An
other Of equal size makes a moderate
profit Of s7.S5 per COW, but the third
herd Of 1000, 600 high producing cows
makes the splendid, but not extra
ordinary. profit Of i26.s2 per head, or
$4,000, 900 annually.

The Deadly Foot-and-NIouth Disease.

Consumers Of meat and dairy pro-

long as a standing army Of scientific
specialists is maintained on a perpet.

in money at its command that may be
needed to protect the food supply. the
public health may be considered safe.
While the epidemic Is no longer
widespread. IL would be rash to say
that II has been entirely stamped out;
for, besides being the most contagious
