Germany Admits Wrong in At,
tack Upon Sussex

Washington, May 10.-Ger-
many in note received by the
state department today by cabl,
from Ambassador Gerard, ad
mlts that German submarine
torpedoed the channel steamer
Sussex in violation of assurances
given the United States, express
es regret for the incident, an
nounces that the submarine com
mander has been appropriately
punished" and declares readiness
to pay an adequate indemnify tc
Americans injured on the vessel.
1t was indicated at the state
department that the German
statement that the offending
commander had been punished
would be accepted and the Sus-
sex case considered closed ex-
cegt for arranging for the pay
ment OF indemnity to the several
citizens of the United States who
were hurt. There probably will
be no attempt to negotiate for
these indemniiieS or for final
settlement of the Lusitania and
other cases pending, however,
until sufficient time has elapsed
TO indicate how the last Ameri-
can note was received in Berlin
and whether the new submarine
policy is being lived up to.
Officials of the state department
noted particularly the passage of
the note which said lin view of
these circumstances the German
government frankly admits that
the assurance given the Ameri-
can government in accordance
with which passenger vessels
were not to be attacked Without
warning has not been adhered to
IN the present case"

How to Grow Soy Beans.

In a general way, soy beans
may be planted and cultivated
by the same general methods
that are used with cowpeas. 1t
is very essential that the land be
we'll prepared for this crop, tor,
one of the chief difficulties in
growing then is to secure a
stand. If the land is not we'll
prepared, or if the seed are sown
too deep or too early and the
weather is unfavorable after
planting, the chances are that
the seed will not germinate, but
rot.
The planting in the lower
Piedment section and the east
ern part of the State may take
place anywhere from May IS to
June ID; while i'll the upper
Piedmont and mountain Sec
ton, the best time for reeding
will usually be about June 1st.
Ordinary good preparation
given the land for corn or cot
ton will be the kind that should
be accorded land for this crop.
In planting soy beans, it will
require about one-half bushel
seed when planted in rows. The
exact amount, of course, will
depend upon the size of the seed.
Where the beans are sowed
for hay or pasturages purposes,
they should be put in as narrow
rows as can be cultivated prop.
erly. However, if they are to
be grown for seed purposes, it is
suggested that the distance be.
tween the rows be from 80 to 40
inches.
If the land is we'll prepared,
and the season is at all favorable.
the crop can be produced under
average conditions by one chop,
ping and two to three good cul
tivations with one. horse cultiva.
tor.
However, it must not be inferr,
ed from this that if other cultiva-
tions are .peeded they should not
be given, for it will not be ad-
vlsable to stop the civilizations
until the crop is we'll advanced
AID all grass and weeds are un-
der subjection.
1t has not generally been our
experience, especially in the
Piedmont sections of the State.
that soy beans did as we'll as
cowpeas when sown broadcast.
Under conditions required for
the sowing of the leguminous
crop broadcast, we would GER
tainly generally ADVISE the use
of cowpeas in preference to soy
beans or else use mixture of
equal parts of soy beans and
cowpeas, using about a bushel
of the mixture.-Exchange

How High Will Cotton Go?

How High Will Cotton Go?
The market, since the German
answer to the note of President
Wilson, has been showing some
unmistakable symptoms, which
are being diagnosed as feeling
that the beginning of the end of
the war is very near. The Oh
server has been inclined TO the
opinion for weeks that Germany
would waste herself in the as
sault against Verdun aud that the
eventually OF this mighty strug-
gle will mark the turning point
that will lead swiftly to the end.
There seems to be a feeling in
the air that 'sowething is going
to happen soon." The country
has had evidence that the cotton
trade holds to that view. We
find Theodore H. Price, from
the office of Commerce and Fl
nance, Is Wall Street, talking
about how cotton is likely to act
when the war ends He sees
signs of speculative cyclone in
the market the like of which
was never known. According
to his opinion, "a cyclon1c read
lustment is inevitable the mo
ment the barriers of war are re-
moved" He sees situation
commencing to develop" And
what will happen when the war
is actually ended? "If the ex-
cltement of the Stampede" says
Price, shall be intensified by re-
ports that suggest a short crop
the market may be carried to a
figure the mention of which is
unnecessary and would seem
ridiculous. All that need be
said now is that the material for
a great, speculative conflagra-
tion in cotton has been assembled
and only awaits the magic sig
nal of peace for ignition. That
cotton will be carried far too
high before the fire shall have
burnt itself out is almost certain,
but we need NOT concern our
selves with the elimination of a
movement that has hardly vet
begun except insofar as those
who are more forehanded or
better informed than most have
commenced to prepare for it,"
1t is a pity Price did not have
the nerve TO give the figures to
which it is probable the cotton
market may 20 when competi-
tive buying in Europe. at the
close Of the war begins. The
Observers own opinion is that
Is cents will be merely a step
ping stone. Eighteen cents may
be probable as soon as the end
shall have come and 20 cents is
not at all wild inprobabiIity.

biggest frolic of his life when
the war ends.-Charlotte Obser-

League for World Peace After
Present Struggle

Present Struggle
New York. May 12.-Theo-
dore Marbur of Baltimore, FORM
erly United States Minister to
Belgium, at a dinner given by
him here tonight TO members of
the league't to enforce peace, told
of an interview he had with Sir
Edward Grey in which the Brit
ish Foreign Minister said he was
wholly in favor of the plan of
the league to enforce peace.
This proposal is that a league of
the great Powers be formed at
the close of the war in Europe
to guarantee lasting peace by
pledging the use Of their joint
armed forces, together with eco
nomic pressure against any sign
atory Nation which shall refuse
to keep its agreement to try
arbitrational methods before be-
ginning bostilities or declaring
war.
"Sir Edward Grey" said MIR.
Marburg, who recently returned
from Europe, expressed the
opinion that if some such plan
had been In operation when the
present war was threatened, the
war would not have occurred.
AS the attitude of England would
greatly influence the, action of
her allies, the view of Sir Ed
ward will carry great weight
when the terms of peace come
to be discussed.
Il found other leading men in
England quite in sympathy with
President Wilson'S aspiration for
some sort ofjoint guarantee of
peace 9sIle part of the. great
Nations. Indeed, I have come
home convinced that there is a
real prospect of the great ideal
OF the league to enforce peace
being carried out after the war.
But great emphasis needs to be
laid on a serious study of all the
problems involved now so that
the ENJOYS who gather to frame
a treaty of peace at the end of
the war will come to the confer
ence with a plan, the principal
features of which have been ap.
proved by the various chancel.
