FIGHTING THE HESSIAN FLY.
Late Planting on Fly Free Date Has
Proved Successful.

Proved Successful.
That the Hessian fly can he success
fully controlled by practical methods
has been demonstrated In Harvey coun.
( ty. Kan. Under the leadership of +.
/ p. Lane, county agent for the Harvey
county farm bureau, a large number
OF farmers were organized last sum-
rner and fall to fight the fly.
Methods of control advocated by Mr..
Lane were those devised and recon-
mended by the department of entomol-
ogy In the Kansas State Agricultural
college-to thoroughly prepare the seed
bed, destroy the volunteer wheat and
plant on or about the fly free date,
which I'm Harvey county Is Oct. S or o.
| A large per cent OF the wheat acreage
Of the county was planted according
to these directions. although the wealth.
er conditions hlndered the work consid
erably.
/ \ representative Of the college de
partment Of entomology visited a mum.
Der of wheatiields In the county before
harvesting began. In nearly every
case where the crop was planted ac-
cording to the methods advocated there
was practically no fly injury. A few
fields that We're planted before the fly
free date or In which no effort was
made to destroy the volunteer wheat
were all badly infested and the yield
reduced. In some cases where late
sown fields adjOined stubble fields or
early sowp fields considerable injury
was noted, showing the necessity OF
cooperation In the control of the fly.
An experiment was carried out on
the farm Of Frank Lawton, near New.
ton, TO show the value Of planting
wheat on or about the fly free date.
A plot OF wheat was planted each
week, beginning Sept. 90 and continu.
Ing until oct. %. The plots planted
on Sept 90, Sept % and Oct. 4 were
almost entirely destroyed by the fly.
Those plots planted after Oct. 4 came
through with little or no fly injury
and good yield.

sented in planning for defense against
any possible enemy.
BUSY Far Into Niqht,

For months it has been a common
sight at the war department vixen he
has been in the city, to see the lights
in his office blazing far into the night.
Surrounded by his bureau chiefs and
officers on staff duty, the secretary
went into every aspect of the case with
all the concentration he developed as
lawyer and a member Of the New Jer-
sey judiciary.
Out Of that study came the plan for
the continental army and the corre-
lated increases In the regular army and
proposals for coast defense and huge
reserve for war material which con-
stitutes the administra tion prepared
ness plan, so far as the army is con-
cerned Behind that plan the presi-
dent has stood.
Mr.. Garrison recently declared for
universal military training as doc
trine of democracy, altho he said no
thought the nation not ready for such
proposal at this time. He has re.
peatedly said both publicly and In pri-
vate that he was so full Of the subject
of preparedness and of the need for it
as a result of his studies, that he
dreamed of it at night and it was with
him every waking moment.
Lane His First Call.
While Secretary Lane was being
considered in official circles as likely
choice, it was understood that the
president has under consideration the
names Of two or three other men and
will not make an appointment before
Weighing their qualifications carefully.
The president has already made up
his mind to appoint democrat to the
place.
Former Governor Walsh, Of Massa-
chusetts; Secretary Houston, former
Governor Harmon, of Ohio, and former
Mayor Baker, of Cleveland, were added
to the names being discussed. Former
Governor Adams. of Colorado was be-
ing talked of as q possible successor
to Secretary Lane. It was understood,
however, that at least one of the men
being considered by the president has
not been mentioned publically.
The cabinet met today with vacant
chair for the first time since Mr..
Bryan's resignation. The departure of
Mr.. Garrison, with it's possible effects
on the preparedness program, was dis
cussed thoroughly.
designations from the cabinet were
met with denials.
Not Far Apart.
Supporters of the president declared
that he and Mr.. Garrison agreed on
the underlying principles of both the
military and Philippine questions but
differed on the methods of carrying out
the policies.
The president, his friends said,
worked with congressional leaders on
the currency, tariff and other bills,
and tho making some concessions was
able to get bills which he finally ap-
proved. He still feels that it is best
to pursue the same policy In dealing
with the army and Philippine ques-
tions.

Vienna, via London. Feb. 1.-THE
text of the memorandum communicated
by the Austro- Hungarian foreign office
today to representatives of neutral
countries announcing the decision of
the government to treat as warships
armed merchantmen Of nations at war
with this country. Is as follows:
1T is not known to neutrals powers
that the British admiralty during the
year 1913 caused large number Of
British liners to be armed. The first
lord of the admiralty declared in the
house Of commons in 1913 that the
armament of the vessels in question
was only to protect them from dangers
threatening them from hostile ships
converted into auxiliary ships and to
serve exclusively for defense.
Experiences gained In the present
war show that a considerable number
OF merchantmen used the guns in
stalled aboard against hostile warships
and not solely with the intention to es-
cape exercise Of the prize right but also
to attack and destroy enemy warships.
Government lneites Illegal Acts.
AS Is evident from the memorandum
which the imperial German government
today. communicated to neutral states,
instructions have been found aboard
British cruisers which prove that the
British government itself incited Brit
ish merchantmen t. illegal acts. and
this In complete contradiction to assur-
ances which IL communicated to the
state department at Washinst IN. It's
allies. particularly France and Italy,
followed the example Of Great Britain
during the course Of hostilities.
without wishing to enter into an
examination Of the surprising claim ad-
vanced by the British government, ac-
cording to which liners armed by that
government, retain their inoffensive
character, while merchantmen armed
by the enemy are regarded by the
British naval forces as auxiliary cruis-
ers, the Austro- Hungarian government
limits itself to establishing that every
whatever with cannon loses thru this
batant ship.
e., Warning Neutral Nations.
Under these conditions the order has
been given to the Austro- Hungarian
naval forces to treat such ships as COM
batants-an order. which, however. will
be in force only from Feb. 20, 1915
This delay in granted in the interests
Of neutral powers. in order that they
may be placed ina position to warn
their nationals Of the danger to which
they will expose themselves II they en-
trust their persons or property to armed
merchantmen Of states at war with
Austria Hungary. and also to notify
those of their nationals who may al
ready be aboard ships Of the above
mentioned character.
The ministry Of foreign affairs has
the honor to request the embassy Cor
legation) to bring the above to the at
tention Of It's government"
