Another anecdote Of Mackensen's
early career is equally characteristic
OF the determination and the chivalry
which his intimates know so well.
He was a student at he University of
Halle, and the leader of his "set." He
and his fellow students came to know
talented young actress and her
mother, and learned from the latter
that the daughter was severely handi-
capped by the chicanery of the theater
manager, who not only repressed her
every effort to advance but insulted
and bothered her as we'll
Is d Diplomat.
Instead of making the matter a per-
sonal issue between himself and the
manager, as most other hot-blooded
young students might have done, Mac
kensen was far more diplomatic. He
assembled the entiCe student body
which, floWerladen, went to the
theater and overwhelmed the actress
with applause and bouquets. There
ensued SO much favorable publicity
that the manager had to recede from
his position and give the actress the
opportunity she had sought.
Hardly an eX-cOmrade Of Macken-
sen but can testify to some personal
act of kindness. some help in an emer.
eency that the latter has rendered. 1t
is these seldom-told stories Of officers
which the public hardly ever hears
that most Of all dispel the impression
that the field marshall is stern and
forbidding and unanproachable.
MacEensen's most prominent trait,
perhaps. has hnnn his unusually
strong fiiial devotion and loyalty. It
has been his custom for years to write

Berlin, March 27.-lt is doubtful
whether any popular national hero II
Germany is in general as little known
either in Germany or abroad, as Gen
eral Field Marshal August Won Mac
kensen, he who was instrumental ir
driving the Russians out OF Galicia
and to whose credit the conquest OF
Serbia lies.
I1indenburg, when the war began
was an unknown, but The public
quickly famliariZed itself with every
detail of his life when his victories OF
Tennenburg and the Masurian Lakes
made him an idol of all Germany
Mackensein, however, ilindenburg )
rival for public affection at present
was only name until the summer of
1915. and, despite his great reputation,
is little more now.
Countless streets all over Germany
have been named after HindenburS:
statues already have been erected 10
him; he is weekly in receipt of re-
quests to allow the use Of his name in
this or that connection. Mackensen,
however, though certainly rival OF
Hindenburg insofar as military
achievements are concerned, is still
far behind him when it comes to pop
ular esteem or idOlatry.
Mackensen's pictures, however. are
to be seen everywhere. They perhaps
are responsible for an impression that
seems to be almost universal that the
field marshal is stern and unapprOach-
able, whereas the opposite is the case.
Scarcely any of his innate PERSONA
characteristics except that Of unusual
ability seem to be depicted on his
strenuous features.
Cordial DeIneations.
When Mackensen began to tower
above the other German army leaders,
by his achievements against the Rus
slams, and the Kaiser in frequent tel
egraphic messages conferred honor
after honor on him, it was a matter
of surprise to Germans unfamiliar
with Mackensen's career that a warm
personal note should manifest itself
which had been LACKING in earlier
messages to Hindenburs.
The surprise came largely from the
fact that the general public did not,
and to a great extent still does not,
know how long-standing and cordial
are the relations between the Emper-
or and Mackensein. The latter, sur
rendering the command Of his Body
Guard Hussars years ago, served for a
long period as the kaiser's personal
adjutant, and in this position accomp-
anied his chief on the noted trip to
the Holy Land.
Few know, either, how narrowly
Germany missed having Mackensen

son of man who in America would
be rated as gentleman farmer, and
himself was trained to take his faith

Farm Home DESTROYED.

On Friday of last week the

eight miles northeast of Botti-

ed by fire. The loss is a heavy
one, as this was one of the fin

Some insurance was carried
but not enough to cover the
loss.
The origin Of the fire is un-
known, but it is supposed to
have started from the chimney.
Neighbors turned out in large
numbers in an effort to save
the structure, but the flames
gained such rapid headway,
that little could be accomplish

When Noah Won Out.

You remember Noah had to
work a long time on that ark.
1t was uphill business, too, at
best, building a boat away out
on dry land, while the local
anvil -and-hammer club sat
around splitting tobacco juice
upon his lumber, whiting up
his pine boards with jack
knives, and telling him what a
fool he was for expecting a big
rain in a country that was too
dry to grow alfalfa. But he
kept at it. Finally the flood
came and every mothers son
of the croakers was drowned.

know, in either sacred or pro-
fame history, where a bunch of
knockers got exactly what was
coming to them. Binford

Ergot In Rye.

So much rye will he sown in
this county this fall that a
word of caution may not be out
of place relating to the presence
of ergot in the seed sown which
should be free from this fungi.
Where it is present in the rye
crop it may be observed by the
horn like purple colored grain
protruding from the rye head
especially observed in volun-
teer rye; it is not advisable
there fore to follow rye with
rye in succession. Ordinarily
the ergot may be removed by
the tanning mill either by
blowing over the smaller
grains or screening out the
larger, but where this cannot
be done other grain not infest-
ed with ergot should be obtain
ed; in no case should it be sown
in the seed or should rye be
sown where rye grew this year.
Ergot is fungus growth
which infects rye and some Of
the grasses. 1t is poisonous to
live stock if it exists in suffic-
lent quantities. and grain con-
