the reception and procedure with this
giant stranger in n strange harbor.
What should they do about her stay
and was she entitled 10 tho haven and
protection OF the United States as a
peaceful merchantmen. They thought
so. When should they return? They
did not know. or at least they weren't
telling.
Arrived in the middle branch Of the
Patapsco, the Deutschland pulled
alongside the pier OF the Eastern For
warding Company.
Down the stream lay a British mer-
chant ship with the Union Jack strem-
ing from her masts. The men aboard
the submarine smiled a hard smile ;
they had fooled and Haunted England.
Work Of discharging the dyestuffs
and other merchandise amounting to
hundreds OF tons. started early.
Sturdy Germans, with close cropped
Won Hndenburg hair. went about
their tasks ioyfully. Armed guards
stood watch. There should be no
spies A veritable screen of barbed
wire fianl1ed the structure, and the
curious were kept at their distance.
The dyestuffs began to pile up in a
warehouse filled with nickel and sup
plies which the Deutschland plans 20
take back 10 the Fatherland-if she
can again scoff at Allied patrols and
skirt the smoky cruisers that seek
her destruction. Backers OF the
Deutschland project frankly antici-
pate trouble temporarily with the
American officials. But they believed
that by tomorrow matters would be
straightened and that the United
States would decide to harhor the
vessel as any peaceful merchantmen.
Certainly. they said. she was un-
armed-a merchantmen with a legiti-
mate cargo. Customs Collector Ryan
seemed likely TO give the adventurer
the benefit of all doubt possible.

and made no objection as to the
price
The witness said the next develop
ment in the matter was a letter from
T. c. DUPONT on December Z, 1914,
which letter was put in evidence by
the complainants.
On December IA. 1914, the witness
said he received a letter from Alfred
/. dupont objecting to the price and
suggesting $3.50 a share on a per
cent. basis. or SIPS on a per cent.
basis. which, he thought, was enough
for the company to pay for this stock.
Alfred !. DUPONT again wrote the wit
ness on December 21, saying s125 was
enough to pay for the stock, p. S. du-
Pont testified.
Mr. DUPONT testified to receiving a

that would be required in distributing
the shares among the more important

tional 700 shares or they could be
taken from the company.

practical purposes as useful as q full
blood herd; but when q cross of an
other breed is introduced, further i'm
provement becomes uncertain. 1t oIJ-
poses an established law Of heredity
and that breeder is doomed to disap-
pointment who runs counter to this
law.
1t Is unfortunate that this practice
has been more or less frequent. Yet.
experience teaches that the breeder of
grade herds who expects to make prog
ress has only one practical course open
and that is the use of sires Of one
breed and of meritorious ancestry and
individuality. Remarkable results have
been obtained in the British isles
where many high-grade herds of Short
horns are maintained both for dairy
and beef purposes that compare IA
vorably in individual excellence with
the standard Of the registered herds.
This has been accomplished by the
careful and continuous selection of
Shorthorn sires and the gradual elm
nation Of the undesirable blood.

ARGUMENT FOR LIVE
STOCK AND ALFALFA
Contained in the Farm Survey
Made by the Wisconsin Ex-
pertinent Station.

A strong argument for live stock
and alfalfa is contained in the farm
profit survey made by the Wisconsin
experiment station.
It brought out that A farmers, who
were keeping double the number Of
live stock and twice the average acre
age of alfalfa were making practically
double the profits of the average farm.
The growing and feeding Of alfalfa
is increasing in popularity throughout
the United States every year The
crop can be grown profitably when the
soil is well drained, a firm seeded
prepared. the soil sweetened with lime,
when necessary, and fertilizers and
manures used to give the crop quick
start and enable it to make strong
growth.

PUBLIC TROUGH IS
MENACE TO HORSES
Quite Certain That This Is Most
Common Means of Spreading
Disease to Animals.

<By H. 8. EAKINS. Colorado Agricul-
tural Station. Fort Collins, Colo.)
The public watering trough is q
nuisance that should be abolished. It
is easy to comprehend the necessity
which compels the doing away with
the public roller-towel the bar of soap
and public drinking cup and the same
arguments for abolishing the public
watering trough are applicable, save
that they apply to horse and not man.
It is common knowledge that some
Of the worst diseases of horses, such
as CHAMBERS and strangles, are trans
mitted in this way. Some OF the
transportation companies place notices
in their establishments to the effect
that teamsters are not to water at
public watering troughs, under pen
atty of dismissal. 1t is quite certain
that this is the most common means
of spreading strangles (distemper)
among horses and the public water
ing trough should be legally abolished.
