viewpoints and OF this account has an.

vexed question Of the freedom Of the

When q friend remarked thsH Eng

periority unless defeated. the P0De
nodded his head In assent ana then
added:
President Wilson naturally has oen-
sidered the question in the abstract PEI.

ton more concretely. but 10 had . try

Tho friends then pointed u - the
Pope the difficulty OF securing peaos

Pope Benedict spoke freely and With
great earnestness and conviction. II IN

u. s. TO ASK GERARD
TO END PEACE TALK
Utterances Admitted by the
Ambassador Embarrass
Administration.
ADMISSION A SURPRISE

WASHINGTON, Juno 1o.-Ambassador
Gerard at Berlin will probably be d.
rected by the State Department to re-
frain hereafter from commenting for
publication on world peace and other
matters pertaining to the European war.
The State Department learned to-day
that a recent interview with the Ambas-
sador which appeared in a Munich W
paDer was authorized and authentic.
The interview has tended to embarrass
this Government. State Department Of
icials said AT the time the interview APP
reared that they did not believe that Mr..
Gerard had authorized II.
After commenting on the settlement
q! the differences between the United
States and Germany Ambassador &c
rard In the Interview said
president Wilson has much greater
freedom Of action now to deal with the
immense world problem. which will de-
termine the future attitude OF nearly all
the countries Of the globe
Opposed to Wilson's Policy.
Coming at a time when the leaders OF
the Entente Allies had Just publicly de-
clared that Ney would not consider
peace or mediation this statement placed
President Wilson in the position or a
self-cunstituted mediatov before he had
been asked to assume that role. and was
in direct contradiction with the state
ments which came almost simultane-
ously from the President himself.
But the interview contained other
statements referring TO future steps
which Germany would take calmly and
! with confidence" and indicating that the
United states regarded the Imperial
Chancellor's claim that Germany had
won the war as Just and reasonable. IN
fact Mr.. Gerard referred To h Chancel-
lor's remark us wise and moderate,
and commented on the favorable echo OF
them in America.
This norton OF the alleged Interview
vas cited here by officials az proof that
Ambassador Gerard could not nave been
responsible for these statements. Al
frst the state Department even declined
IN ask the Ambassador II the reported
interview was correct on the ground that
| Mr.. Gerard had no authorization to talk
| Tor publication and therefore 1t was TO

tributed to him were unauthorized

L. it possible to have COW too fat at

have abundant flesh at the time of
calving, both to support the strain on
her system of milk giving and to sup

when she calves to give the most milk.
Fat animals are not the best for breed

have good filters of plump pigs. If
they are too fat very frequently they
do not have milk enough to nourish
the offspring. I have had sows so fat

The sulphur was fed in three forms

Some of the hogs were fed one Of these
