Japan has scorned the alliance proposed by one Zim

China fatly told Berlin that the consequence of tn
new program mperng lives and property in violation

We read also that:
Berlin is told that full reservations are made
not only for material damage" but also for the
vital issue concerned-"lOss of human lves.'
Holland, on February Z, told Berlin that it "can
only in such destruction of neutral ships viola

attack upon the laws of humanity"
The Spanish premier has said: 1T was our alb

Peru serves notice that it considers theU-boat

vegetable growing. In connection with
planning the farm garden, the writer.
q. F. Stoddard, says
Long before the time Of seed
planting, the size Of the plot should
be secured and plan of the garden
drawn to scale This will enable the
grower to figure out Just how many
rows Of vegetables he can have, and
also Just where each vegetable will be
planted. Then when planting time
comes, the work can proceed without
further difficulty. An architect always
draws a plan before he builds a house.
Is It not just as important for the gar.
dener to plan. his work beforehand?
The exact plan of the garden will de-
pend upon the personal tastes Of the
owner and will be different for each

about attending to final details.
In one Of tile halls he met a maid
carelessly carrying lighted candle

her, as she was not one OF the regular
servants, but had only been brought in
to help for the occasion, In short

WASTED TIME IN COURT.
How It Might Be Saved by Following
the English System.

Professor Higgins tells how waste of
time is avoided In English courts and
suggests that the same practice ought
to he adopted in American courts. II
is done by leading questions" Of
which the following is an example In
an action for personal injuries, where
the fact Of the injury is admitted, but
the negligent act denied:
"Your name is John Doe, living at
so and so. You are a painter by trade
and on May l, 1914, you were on the
Strand opposite the law courts and
saw the accident when the plaintiff
was run over by the defendants bus.
and you helped to pick the plaintiff up
and carry him from the roadway"
To which the witness answers Yes"
Now, in an American court the testi-
mony in that one question and answer
would have been the subject of at
least eight distinct questions and eight
distinct answers. and in the hands of
some lawyers this information would
not have been elected short of twenty
questions, as: state your name to tNe
Jury" where do you reslde?" what
is your business?" "Where were you

Some farmers begin to plant the
earliest vegetables at one side and
proceed across the garden as the sea
son advances. This makes it easier
to harrow the implanted portion at
any time desired and thus keep it free
from weeds and in moist, friabls
condition. Other desirable features Of
this plan are; all similar crops in any
row require the same amount and kind
of tillage; crops occupying the land
about the same length of time may be
planted together; after early maturing
crops are harvested 1t is possible to
prepare a strip of land to plant late
vegetables. II desired.
