dent Wilson announced as a result
of the German submarine attacks on
vessels off the American coast that

The government will, of course,
first inform itself as to all the facts,

as far as they are concerned.
The country may rest assured that
the German government will be held
to the complete fulhllment of it's
promises to the government of the

ALLIED CRUISERS 500
MILES FROM SCENE
to be libelous

Boston, Oct. 1O.-Luck was with
Lieutenant Captain Hans Rose, or the
commander of the German submarine
U-53 vas we'll advised.
When he set u to attack enemy
shipping there was not a British war
ship within 500 miles of the spot in
which he chose to operate.
For some time, according to men
who follow marine affairs, there had
been only three British cruisers en-
gagged in p%atroling the Atlantic coast.
Three British cruisers arrived off
Nantucket almost exactly thirty-six
hours after the presence of a German
submarine in Newport harbor had
been made known to the world through
press dispatches.

Washington, Oct. 9.-Dissatisfied
with recruiting of national guards
men Secretary of War Baker has au-
thorized commanding generals of the
army departments to discontinue re-

The decision was based on a recon-

Recruiting has been disappointing.
Great difficulty has been met in trying
to fill up the national guard regiments
at the border or ready to leave for
the border.
The department had built an expen-

SPRING ONION POINTERS
Some Practical Suggestions About
How and When to Plant Seeds
and Sets for Best Onions.

Onions may be grown in spring from
seed or from sets. However, spring
planting OF seed is not generally so
satisfactory and sets are recommend.
ed for the man who neglected to plant
In fall and who wants early onions
For best results with seed, plant
them in October. in order that the
plants may become established before
severe winter weather begins and that
the onions may grow off rapidly in
spring and mature early in June
Still, IL seed are planted very early
in spring and conditions are favor
able. they will make good onions. al
though they will be smaller and later
than those from fall-sown seed.
Onions should be planted on very
sandy loan After the land has been
thoroughly prepared by deep plowing
and repeated narrowing, apply ferti-
lizer and manure broadcast and har-
row into the first three or four inches
OF soil very thoroughly. Lay off rows
fifteen inches apart, plant the seed in
the drill, and cover the seed to a depth
OF one-half to three-fourths of an
inch. When the young seedlings ap-
pear, cultivate frequently in order to
destroy weeds and maintain moisture.
Thin out the onions 80 as to leave
them standing three or four Inches
apart in the row.
To grow onions from sets, prepare
and fertilize the land as when plant.
ing the seed and plant the sets Just as
soon in spring as soil conditions will
permit. Plant them three to four
inches apart in rows fifteen inches
apart.
White Pearl and Prizetaker are the
two most reliable varieties for this
region.
Sets are more convenient for the
home gardener, but for a commercial
onion planter, seed-rlanting is to be
preferred, because onions grown from
seed keep better than those grown
from sets and because seed cost less
than sets.

GIRLS AND BOYS MENTALITY
Female Begins Early to Develop 1t,
Scientists Say, But She Stops
Before the Boy.

1t may be taken as an accepted
fact," writes q German scientist, that
the average age of speech-develop-
ment is several months earlier In the
girl than in the boy. While it is not
very rare to find a year-and-a- -half-old
boy still unable to talk, the develop
ment of speech has made considerable
progress in girls of this age, and in
certain later periods of life her further
advancement is even more obvious.
AT fifteen the male is generally
only big boy, while the girl is often
quite finished young girl But her
mental development not only begins
earlier, but stops earlier 1t is prob
ably not to be doubted tnat in the
young woman OF twenty-five all the
powers of the intellect which are capa-
BILE of developing are at least indi-
Gated and formed and generally al
ready quite well established. The
twenty-five-year-old youth, on the 9TH
er hand. is still full of unguessed DOS
sibilities for the future. The excep-
tions that occur do not vitiate the av-
erage law that the comparative cycle
OF development Is relatively smaller In
the girl. In women the conservative
tendencies natural to their sex are
most marked; in men, the progressive
tendencies"

FALLACY OF LONG STANDING
That Frost 10 Most Likely to Occur
In tho Light Of the Moon"
10 Wrong Idea.

One OF the most tenacious beliefs
Is that the weather is affected BY
the movement Of the moon. It is gen
orally considered that frost is more
likely to occur in the light Of the
moon" than at any other time. For
this reason crops which the frost is
likely to destroy are planted at such
time as to be certain to avoid a
full moon.
The moon reflects sunlight to the
earth and produces the tides. It has
minor effects, such as changing the Do
sition Of the earth and causing min.
ute defiections Of the magnetic needle:
these last, are, however, so small that
they have only effect upon refined in.
struments Of detection. and 1t has
been proved conclusively these two
have no relation to the change of
weather. Regarding the two former
effects named, It is quite easy to un-
derstand that reflected sunlight from
the moon cannot affect the weather.
In the first place, more light is re-
cefved from the sun In thirty min.
utes than from the moon in one year,
and, moreover, the greatest reflection
1s at full moon; from a logical point
or view then 1t should be warmer in
stead OF colder at full moon. This
should disprove any argument that
the reflected light makes It colder
at full moon. 'e. >.

Jokes Taken Seriously,

Doctor Huxley. the great English
scientist. who (being a good Judge of
men) both admired and trusted Doc
tor Ward of Oxford. once made Joke
about Ward having a stake for here
tics In his back garden. That Joke is
probably known more widely, and
taken more seriously, than all the
serious debates of these two great
men.
The same sort of people who can
only remember about Huxley a mira
Gle which he regarded as a legend,
can only remember about Ward, a
phrase which he took as q Joke.
Why hearty levities Of this kind
are ever discussed seriously afterward
must be a mystery to any man who
has had any friends; but they are so
discussed-about w. G. Ward ss about
Doctor Johnson.
