GERARD AND THE
KAISER WILL TALK

Berlin, April 2S.-American Am
bassador Gerard is due to arrive at
the grand army headquarters this
afternoon for a final conference with
Kaiser wilhelm, preceding the for
warding Of reply to President VIII

German methods of submarine war

First Embassy Secretary Grew ac-
companied Gerard in the latter's spe-
cial car. They expected to return to
Berlin on Sunday.
Gerard had not up to the time OF
his departure received answers from
Washington to two messages he sent.
following two conferences with Inn
perial Chancellor Won Bethmann-
Hollweg. He instructed that the re-
plies be forwarded to him by courier
II they were received before night.
The Hague. April 2S.--Positive as
surances have reached Ambassador
Gerard that there will be no diplo-
matte rupture between the United
States and Germany in the present
crisis. 1t was learned today. Attaches
Of the American embassy at Berlin
on Saturday began packing their bag
gage, but on Wednesday assurances
OF o nature yet unrevealed caused
abandonment Of their preparations
for departure from Berlin.
The American colony in Berlin
learned yesterday that there is no
prospect at least Of an early break.
This information was sent in mes
sages to leading Dutch business men
last night. The messages said the
crisis had apparently passed, but II
for some unforeseen reason break
should come. It would not come be-
fore May 5. No reason was given
for the fixing of that date.
There have been no demonstra-
tions in Berlin, but since the presi-
dents last note Americans appear
ing in public have been made to feel
uncomfortable. Most of them remain
indoors as much as possible, on ad-
vice of the police.

PREPARE HOUSE FOR WINTER
First Move Should Be in Direction Of

Furnishing New Litter.

Before the cold weather comes on,
put the hen house in winter shape,
says raiser of chickens in an ex-
change. The first move should be in
the direction of cleanliness. Remove
every movable object, boxes, barrels,
ETC., sweep thoroughly overhead and
underfoot, after scraping out all drop
pings. Then disinfect before retilling
scratch-litter. Whitewash with un-
Stacked lime to which kerosene has
been added, If other insecticides seem
too expensive, and lay it on generous
ly. Paris green in the wash is excel
lent as germ killer. but fill all cracks
everywhere.
Next. if water is prone to freeze in
the coolest weather, make the hennery
warm with dead air space between
the walls and a sheathing Of building
paper. | recommend cheap grade of
paper because it will need to be torn
on in the spring when the periodical
drive against insects is inaugurated.
Then put on storm door, however
rude, to overlap the cracks around the
ordinary entrance, disinfect drinking
dishes, look to ventilation without
drafts, and make sure that the floor is
warm, even if a banking of earth or
sawdust has to be applied. Put in a
big supply Of road dust for baths and
plenty of gravel and sharp grit.
Now Gull the flock and get the rest
adapted to the changed appearance of
things early, SO the laying which is
revived after molting, will not receive
a setback, as is usually the case after
any abrupt alteration.
