reservations were made TO the state
department today by the German en-
oassy against the proceedings brought
IN the federal court at Norfolk to re-
turn the captured British liner APP

In note presented by Count Won
Bernstorff, the German ambassador.
It is commended that many precedents
as well as the terms of the Prussian-
American treaty provide that no legal
action can lie against the Appam,
held by German crew as prisoner
of war nor against Lieutenant Berg,
her commander. 1t is also contended
that inasmuch as Lieutenant Berg has

Stockholm, Feb. 23.-The British
blockade of Germany failed because it
came too late, according to Swedish
press and business men. AS far as
Scandinavian countries were con-
cerned, the blockade became really eff
fective last April. For eight months
prior the Germans, anticipating Eng
lands tactics, had purchased enough
military supplies, especially copper,

Sweden, Denmark and Norway to last
two years.

A BUSINESS TEST.

1t is past time for farmers to realize
that everything called cooperation IS
not real cooperation. At this moment
somewhere, and probably in many
rIaces. smooth takers about -CO-Opera-
ton are getting farmers together for
the D of unloading something On
them at a price far beyond it's value.
1t may be a creamery, a cannery, a
grain elevator, a stallion, a warehouse
a slaughter-hOuse or something else.
All these have been used for the pur-
pose of separating WOuld-be cO-Opera
tors from their money. and yet all OF
them afford legitimate opportunities
for real cooperation, which helps
everybody and hurts nobody. There is
no reason why farmers should avoid
cooperation if it is the real thing; but
there is every reason why they should
avoid professional cooperators who
have something to sell for two or
three times what it is worth. The
principle of cooperation is all right,
but many things practiced under that
name are all wrong. To every coop
erative enterprise the acid test of good
business sense should be applied. No
plan is bound to succeed because it
has cooperative features or is called
cooperative, nor is it bound to fail
either. If it is a business enterprise
it's success or it's failure rests on the
same foundation as any other-sound
investment, capable management. dill

is no copyright on any of these things.

Fear Causes

An eminent medic1,- ~=rijfify ones
made the statement that a Gr2aI dea.
of c~ontaeion is due largely to nervous
apprehension and fear. Terror causes
radical changes in the secretions and
nerve cells, and while the possib1l
itv is not the direct cause of disease
it certainly is sufficient to put the per
son in the proper condition to be at
tackled by the prevailing malady. Ii
is a we'll understood fact that exces
sive anger infuses a toxic element
into the secretions. Fear destroys the
resistive capability, and, as it were.
lets down the drawbridge and makes
wav for the enemy. In seasons OF cpl
demic. therefore, it is necessary to cut
tivate tranquility and cheerfulness, to
learn not to fear and to surround one,
self with an atmosphere of personal
mental. and physical defiance of dan
gers.
