ALLIES WON'T LET
RED CROSS THROUGH
Tell United States Nothing Doing and
Suggest Other Ways OF
Aiding Germans.

WASHINGTON, Aug. with the
apparent intention of closing the ne
gotiatiCnS in which the United States
has endeavored unsuccessfully to Sc
cure permission to send Red Cross
supplies through the allied blockade
lines into Germany and Austria, the
allied governments have submitted
through Ambassador Page at London
a detailed summary of their reasons
for refusing such permission.
The communication, handed to the
an bassador by the British foreign
office and made public tonight by
the state department, declares pass
age of such supplies has been for
bdden in the case of every blockade
established in the past" and suggests
that If the American people really de-
sire to send relief supplies into the
Teutonic countries they can find a
way by financing Red Cross hospital
units to take the places OF those whose
recent withdrawal led the allies TO
impose the restristrictons against
shipments
without hospital units to supervise
distribution, the allies contend there
can be no guarantee that the supplies
will not be put to military use.

LOCAL LAUNDRIES
NEED A ROASTING
Prominent Business Man
Compliments World for
Exposing Trust.

That the people of Tulsa believe
there is a laundry trust is indicated
by numerous communications received
by The World since the appearance in
this paper of story concerning
rumors of a combine" of this char
acter. A prominent business man
here, whose name may be had on ap-
plication, yesterday addressed the fol-
lowing interesting letter to The
World:
Tulsa, Okla, July 81, 1916. Dear
Editor: Regarding the article in Sat
urday mornings World covering the
local laundry condition ! want to con-
gratulate you.
Since being here 1 have had more
loss upon my laundry and received less
consideration than l had while living
five years in st. Louis, two years in
Memphis and about twenty years in
Chicago.
The --- laundry is the one
have had the most veXatious condi-
tions with They have butChered my
clothes until / could not wear them,
returned them yellow, etc, and when
| would take it up with the proprietor
| would be ignored. / know several
travelling men that live at the Hotel
Tulsa that have even worse conditions
to contend with them than l have,
and they are compelled to submit TO
them as the hotel gets a 10 per cent
commission from that laundry and it
also does the laundry of hotel en-
ploycs free.
| have tried to interest one large
st. Louis laundry in this town and
have not given up hopes along this
line.
If your publication will take up
several lines of business here that have
business methods that Will act as a
detriment to the community ii Will be
doing the people very good turn.
This everlasting tendency to gouge
the money out Of the peoples pocket
regardless of wheter they ever come
back is not a legitimate business and
il is even spoken OF as far away as in
st. Louis. II Tulsa expects to become
a real metropolitan place-a city of
the first rank-the merchants will be
compelled to act as though they had
come here to stay and had faith il its
future.
| came to Tulsa to make it my per-
manent home and have hopes OF being
the means of bringing others here,
but / have just made up my mind
that there are so many other towns
In the United States that are operated
for the benefit of it's inhabitants that
j will reserve my conclusions along
this line for future decision. And the
other towns have a maturity with
something to offer.

but these are my observations and |
feel that / am in position TO get q
correct line upon such.

CUT THIS OUT
Old English Recipe for Catarrhal
Deafness and Head Noises.

If you know Of some one who is trou-
bled with Catarrhal Deafness, head
noises ordinary catarrh cut out this
formula and hand it to them and you will
have been the means of saving some poor
sufferer perhaps from total deafness. In
England scientists for long time past
have recognized that catarrh is conSti-
tutional disease and necessarily requires
constitutional treatment.
Sprays. inhalers and nose douches are
liable to irritate the delicate air passages
and force the disease into the middle ear
which frequently means total deafness,
or else the disease is driven down the air
passages towards the lungs which is
equally as dangerous. The following for
mula which is used extensively in the
damp English climate is constitutional
treatment and should prove especially
effcacious to sufferers here who live UNI
der more favorable climate conditions. .
Secure from your Druggist ounce of
Parmint double strength. Take this
and ounces of granulated sugar: stir
until dissolved. Take one tablespoonful
four times d day This will often bring
quick relief from distressing head noises.
Cogged nostrils should open, breathing
become easy and hearing improve as the
inflammation in the eusta chan tubes is
reduced. Parmint is used in this way as
it acts directly upon the blood and mu-
cous surfaces of the system and has a
slight tonic action that facilities the re-
covery of the patient. The preparation
is easy to make. costs little and is pleas
ant to take. Every person who has ca
tarrh should give this treatment trial

In selecting birds for breeding pur-
poses there are some hens and some
cockerels to avoid.
In ordinary breeding on an average
poultry farm, 1 would avoid old hens
as breeders. Pullets which are mature,
that is, those that begin to lay in Octo-
Der or November. will produce chick
ems cheaper than old hens will produce
them. They are more vigorous, Will
lay more eggs, from which to expect
chickens and the eggs will hatch better.
They are not as liable to be broken
down in health, due to an inability to
Withstand the heavy feeding to which
our hens Of today are subjected. They
are not as liable to be affected by dis
ease or diseases as are old hens, hav-
ing more vigor and vitality. While
they lay smaller egg, it is said upon
good authority that the small chick
will live as well as the larger one and
use of old hens.
l would avoid the use of those pull
let's which do not begin to lay early.
In the first place. if they do not lay
early, they are not mature, and a per-
son ought not to use them. Further,
those pullets which begin to lay early,
lay when eggs are high and have often
paid their owners as high as $500 be-
fore they are used as breeders, and
thus it can easily be seen that these
birds must pay a profit. Further if
they begin to lay early, there is all
the more time for them to lay a large
number of eggs before the time comes
when they would naturally be sold.
If one matches his chicks late and is
obliged to use old hens as breeders,
then 1 would avoid using any hen
which had ever had any trouble, or
disease of any kind, because the poul-
tryman must take no chances what
ever. l would avoid using the hen
which molts early because these hens
lay but very few eggs in the course
Of year. Those hens which mott
late and even though they lay very
few eggs that winter, make the best
to breed from.
l would avoid the use of any strain
Of birds which have been bred for
fancy purposes long enough to lower
the production of eggs. also any strain
of birds which I knew or suspected
to be ordinary or medium producers.
Any hen which is not busy hen, I
would avoid. Those hens which are

food to maintain themselves and at

.HA! GERMAN SPIES
HERE IN OUR MIDST!
Had Marked Maps and Got Real
Mad When (CursesD They
Were Discovered.
(Banaor News March ~


That Bangor has been entertaining
three German spies is the statement
made by we'll known Bangor mer
chant who claims to be entirely IA
miliar with the facts in the case
through personal contact and acquain-
tance-under assumed names, by the
Way-With the men.
The men are said to have been
known in Bangor by the names of Sui
Ivan. Martin and Smith. while the
real names Of two of the men are said
to be Weiner and Walter.
Two of the men worked in printing
offices in this city for some time and
made various purchases about town
under the assumed names. In cloth
ing establishment map Of Maine was
accidentally dropped from the pocket
of a coat which had been taken off in
order that new suit of clothes might

map was carefully marked at places
along the border line with the prov
inces OF New Brunswick and Quebec
and at other places.
A man who knew the Germans and
had business dealings with them &C
cused one of them recently Of sailing
under false colors. The answer was
an ugly look and a threat that the
Bangor man would better attend strict
ly to his own business.
The men are said to have masquer
AIDED as laboring or working men and
came from some place unknown. They
made their departure from Bangor
suddenly and without warning, it is
said. and their present whereabouts is
unknown here. Those who are famil-
lar with the circumstances feel sure
that the conditions justify the assump-
ton that the men were German spies.
especially as it is we'll known fact
that they have been industriously at
work in New England, a Boston man
who was in Bangor recently having
stated on authority that secret service
agents were watching the work Of %
German spies in New England.

the same time lay and if more food
is required, the hen to get it. must be
busy So would avoid that hen which
is constantly summing herself, which
is always roosting both late in the
morning and early at night. l would
avoid that hen, which. when on the
roost at night has an empty crop.
because of the relation of food to egg
production as mentioned previously.
I would avoid those hens which lay
an unusual egg, either in color or
shape, because the eggs one ought to
produce should be uniform in size and
color. and mishappen eggs and freak
eggs are usually produced at a loss.
While selecting the hens to use as
breeders. it is we'll to select the cock
erel, and in selecting the cockerel l
would avoid a cockerel which was not
up to weight, because one ought not to
breed from a small bird, even one year.
as the tendency would be to lessen
the weight of the flock.
l would avoid any cockerel which
was constantly being driven by other
cockerels or a cockerel which won't
fight. Any bird which will fight has
good vigor and vitality and strength
and these are essential. l would avoid
any bird which crowed little or seldom
because the very act of Growing shows
the masculinity of the bird and to be
a good breeder he should be strongly
sexed.
Avoid any male bird which is not a
good, outstanding. deep, wide chested
broad backed, and proud bird, because
if he does rot possess these character
istics, he will never do to head any
mating females, in regard to strain
disease and health.
In selecting male bird. I would
avoid the use Of any cock bird. They
are not as vigorous as the cockerels,
and as a rule are not as healthy, being
more apt to be broken down. The
cocks will not produce as many livable
chicks from the same hens as the cock
erels by quite few. l would avoid
using those cockerels which are stunt
ed or ever have been, of those cockerels
which do not mature and begin to

Goodrich Sets New Style in Auto Tires

The classy" looking black tread
