Lansing Says United States Has No Cause to Quarrel With Germany as Not Violated.

NOC NlOIttSu.
 Washington, May 9.-America's lat est note to Germany on the submarine controversy had gone forward to Berlin today, and administration off, cials were interested in knowing whether Germany would make any reply. It was intimated in German circles that the Imperial government might not consider an answer neces- sary.
 The text of the note, made public last night, shows that the United States accepts the German promises that submarine warfare in the future will be altered to conform with recog- nized rules of international law. It in sists, however, that Germany must not consider her respect for rights of Am erican citizens on the high seas con- tingent on the conduct of any other belligerent with whom the United States may be negotiating.
 Responsibility in such matters is single, not joint; absolute, not rela- tive" says the note.
 Secretary Lansing gave out a state ment explaining that a large part of the latest German reply dealt with questions concerning the conduct of other belligerents which the American government could not discuss with the Berlin government. He stated, how ever, that he considered Germany had yielded to our representations and and i've can have no reason to quarrel with her" so long as the altered sub- marine policy is not violated.

PLANT PECANS

Considerable cpace is given in
this number of Modern Farming to
the stimulation Of increased interest
in pecan growing, and we feel that
the majority Of readers will agree
with US that the subject is well
worth special consideration.
In the past importations of all
nuts have run well into the millions
annually, and the chief reason is
that pecan production in the South
had not reached sufficient dimen-
sions to supply demand, for the pc
can lends itself more readily to a
wider consumption range than does
any of the popular nuts.
That the land owner in the South
has begun to realize the wonderful
pecan culture opportunities existent,
is shown by recent establishments of
numerous pecan orchards, particu-
larly in the Gulf Coast States, the
most favored region for profitable
ventures in pecans. Here in Louis
lana and Mississippi has there been a
most market increase in pecan plant
ings, and this is as it should be, for
nearly all of the popular thin-shelled
named varieties-nuts Of large SIZE
and wonderous flavor-had their
origin in one Of the other of the two
States.
When from 80 to so or 60 cents
per pound can be paid by wholesale
buyers of pecans for the superior
quality, large sized nuts, as they
have been bringing for some time
past, it behoves US to be up and do.

GLORIA'S ROMANCE

Remember how you enjoyed
"What Will People Say?" When
it appeared in a serial in a popu-
lar magazine? Remember how
eagerly other Rupert Hughes
novels have been snapped up by
the reading public and become
"best sellers" almost over
night? Well, there's a brand
new Rupert Hughes novel just
about ready. It's title is "Gloria's
Romance" and in addition to
being issued as a fiction story
it is going to be made into mo-
ton pictures and released one
chapter at a time, beginning IN
the very near future. And
nobody else than wonderful
little Billie Burke is going to
play the role Of the heroine
in the film production-Billie
Burke, whom theater mana
gers over the country unite in
proclaiming the most popular
star in America, whose name in
electric lights over a metropol-
tan theater means certain sue
cess and a long run.
Rupert Hughes and Billie
Burke make a great 'combina-
ton for anybody's motion pic
ture production, but when it is
known that George Kleine, the
man who gave America such
films as "Quo Vadis %, ''The
Last Days Of Pompeii' and
"Sparticus" is making the
