First Steam Press.

On Nov. 20, 1914, a newspaper for
the first time was printed by steam.
Although the application of steam pow
er to printing machinery had been
successfully experimental with some
years previously. the hostility OF the
working printers rendered 1t unadvis-
able for the masters TO introduce such
a startling innovation into their print
ing houses. Toward the end Of 1914,
however. the. growing circulation OF
the Times made Il change of some kind
necessary. and in the face of fierce OPP
position the second John Walter set
up steam printing press. So on the
morning of Nov. % the leading article
of the Times announced to its readers
that they held in their hands that day
a copy of the first newspaper to be
printed by steam London Answers.

HOT CAMPAIGN
IN OTHER PLACES
Licens. Question Seems to
be Main Issue
Big Battles Being Waged at
Ashland, Superior and
Bayfield,.

Great interest is being center
ed in the license campaign be-
ing conducted in nearby cities
this spring and the outcome is
being watched with interest by
the people Of this city who
determined during the past two
elections to Danish the saloon
from our midst.
At Superior the campaign is
growing daily and is developing
into one Of the strongest politi-
cal battles ever. waged in the
city.
Superior men who have been
here during the past week re-
port that the "drys" are making
a hard and determined fight and
the prospects are that the Sec
ond city Of Wisconsin will go
into the dry column on April 4th.
Last year the wets won out by a
majority Of fifteen votes.
At Ashland a red hot campaign
is being waged and will continue
up to election day. The dry
forces in the Garland city have
proited by the experiences of
last year and are this season
saving their heavy guns" for
the final wind-up Of the cam
paign. This was a costly mis-
take to the drys last year in
starting their campaign too
early and playing out before
election day.
Bayfield, is in the midst of a
hard battle on the license ques-
ton and much personal work is
being done on both sides. Both
sides feel confident of success.
At Iron River another battle
is being waged.

Historic Rose Tree.

The most venerable rose tree in ex-
istence il said to bloom against the
ancient church of Hildesheim, in Ger
many. Notwithstanding the many par
ties which at different times have been
in the ascendancy, they all seem to
have respected and tended the rose
tree, which, it 10 said, was planted by
Charlemagne. The trunk is now al
most as big as mans body. There
are five principal limbs trained against
the church, the tree being protected by
iron ratings inciosing an area Of about
twenty-six square feet The German
soldiers In early ages tended the tree;
Catholics and Protestants, In turn mas
tiers of the town, drained the ground;
the soldiers OF Turenne fastened up
the branches with clamps, and those
Of Napoleon. century and half
later, erected the ratings.

WATER FOR COWS.

Heavy Producing Animate Require an
Enormous Quantity.
A cow in full flow of milk will drink
four times as much water as when dry.
One who has had to carry water to
heavy milking cow can appreciate this
large water requirement for milk pro
duction.
AS result OF Investigations ct the
various experiment stations and the
observations of practical dairymen, It
may be stated that the average COW
giving milk must be supplied at least
twelve and one-half gallons of water
daily. While this amount is sufficient
for the ordinary production, much
greater amounts are necessary for ex-
tremely heavy producers.
Cows are creatures of habit, and or
binary individuals will, as rule, get

Turnips q. a Dairy Feed.

Turnips are a good feed, but care
must be taken or they are likely to
faint the milk. We would feed about
fifty pounds of them per day and i'm
mediately after milking, says Hoard's
Dairyman. If this practice is followed
there will be little or no trouble from
their use. In connection with the tur-
nips feed all the clover, vetch and Oat
hay each animal will consume. a
mixture consisting Of 300 pounds
crushed barley, 200 pounds crushed
corn and 300 pounds crushed oats will
supplement this roughage very nicely.
Feed about one pound for each three
to three and half pounds Of milk

Cause. Of cowpox.

Cowpox is contagious disease due
to an organism which cannot be seen
by the microscope and which Is SO
small that it passes through a fine
porcelain filter, says Hoard's Dairy
man. The disease always Is traceable
to a previous outbreak, to an affected
animal or to a man who has had
smallpox or who has been recently
vaccinated against it. One attack gen.
orally gives immunity to subsequent
attacks. It may be contracted at any
season Of the year and is spread from
cow to cow by the mixers hands.

along If they have opportunity to drink
all they desire at regular time each
day. These high producers, however,
should have access to water at least
twice daily. An abundant supply Of
pure water is a very important factor
on the dairy farm. If the cows must
go to some creek or pond during the
winter and drink through holes chop
ped in the ice they will seldom con-
sumo as much water as they should.
A tank holding a good supply Of wa

engine and pump should be provided
to keep it full. Water pumped direct

Caused by Payments on $751;
100000 British Loan.

PAYMENT in full last Friday at the

$3.50. 100000 British loan resulted IN
the largest clearings for the week in
the history of the New York Clearing
House banks. The clearings show by

The largest total OF checks de-
posted at the Clearing House was
s247, 100000 by the National Bank Of
Commerce. This was due mainly to
the fact that J. p Morgan & Co. de-
posted approximately S190,000,OOO of

HOW AUSTRALIA HAS
HANDLED WAR FINANCES
Paper Currency Increased and
Gold Money fmpounded.

The federal government Of Australia
at the outbreak of hostilities pro-
ceeded to replace the common gold cur
rency with a greatly enlarged paper
currency. Meanwhile the banks pur-
sued more vigorously their policy OF
laying up reserves OF coIr and bullion.
On this course they had embarked sew
eral years before, as a safeguard
against an anticipated setback from the
sequence Of good agricultural seasons
nrior 10 1913. But the failure OF the
1914 season was followed by bounti-
ful rains and bumper harvests in most
of the states, including South Austria
liza. West Australia and Victoria, so
that the private bank reserves were
scarcely required to colster up ma
tional credit.
The production Of gold in the Com
monwealth for the last three years was
as follows: In 1918, 2,549,05i ounces;
in 1914. 2,3sO,642 ounces; in 1915, p
274,972 ounces.
The federal treasurer. following the
lines previously adopted by the banks,
but acting purely on the war emer-
gency. raised the note currency from
s63, 264 500 at the beginning of 1915 TO
s2O4 393,00O at the beginning Of the
current year. At the same time BY
practically Withdrawing all the sover-
eigns in circulation and restricting the
export of gold the treasury greatly
strengthened its coin reserve. Though
the expanding note issue has run ahead
Of the original proportion of gold held,
the reserves Of the latter at the treas
ury are still regarded as maintaining a
safe ratio to the paper currency. The
note issue amounted to Sl09, 496,25O
and the gold reserve 20 Si3, 500 in
January, 1914. In January, 1915. the
notes amounted to S204 l20, 900, and the
gold reserve TO 72,900,OOO. Gold pro-
duction from 1910 to 1914 amounted to
S243,325, 900, while in the same period
the export Of gold in payment FOR I'M
ports amounted to only Sl65, l6i 900,
leaving a surplus of S77.S6i000 n the
country. The gold position of the
Commonwealth has, Their, fore, a very
favorable aspect. The banks reserves
of gold, il should be added, are lot all
held in the banks. A portion Of the
metal has been lodged in the federal
treasury to help sustain the national
reserve against the expanded note
issue. This proportion the treasurer
hopes 20 return at the end of the war.

proposed action of the Russian govern

running between Melbourne and sgd

with half Russian and half Australian

take repayment in small sums over a

even Great Britain, might directly
or indirectly repudiate an internal
loan, because that is purely a mat
ter Of internal economies, and no
body outside could interfere. But
no country, so long as it is solvent,
may repudiate a foreign loan. The
difference between an internal and
an external war loan is very simple.
An internal loan is an obligation Of
the people to themselves; but an
external loan is an obligation of one
people to another.
