NORTHCL|FFE
 TELLS ABOUT GERMAN SPIES
Republican A. p. Leased WIre1

WASHINGTON, July 6-Lord North cliffe. head of the British mission in this country, today authorized publi- cation of parts of a confidential speech on spies and censorship made to the National Press Club July 4. He de- seribed the work of spies in England and the flood of fatal informa tion that pours over the cables through neutral countries to Germany, and spoke of the dangers of any except technical mili- tary and naval censorship for the press only on two occasions in the last month, Lord Northcliffe said, had he seen anything published in American newspapers that might have been of value to the enemy.
 The address follows in part:
 What does not seem to be under stood here and what we did not under stand at the beginning of the war is that the really deadly high explosive news is not newspaper news out the news sent out by spies in code to neu- tral countries for transmission to Ger many.
 Tt is not difficult for spies to get news. Their task is the delivery of the goods and on that task they con- centrate.
 T do not know whether you have a mail censorship on letters to Spain, but l venture to think that if you have not and start opening letters to that coun- try you will get as rich haul of infor- nation as our secret service depart ment did out of the censoring of Amer ican letters to Europe.
 The cable censor must be resource fuf. A world of meaning can be con- cealed behind the words mother better or mother going to seaShore. Many complaints will come from business men as to detention of their messages, but business men of standing can cas- lily satisfy the cable authorities, and, in any case. the main business at the present time is war. and lives are more important than business losses.
 We in England were loath to believe in the existence of an extensive Ger man spy system until strange happen ingS by land and sea proved their spy preparations were just as efficient as their other preparations
 The German spies are divided into five or six classes. working indepen- dentiy of each other.
 There is the business spy whose work is the gathering of information personal and otherwise. An estabIisfr- ment called Schimmelpfennigs opened out in England purportine to be some thing like your Bradstreet's or Dung but really with the object of ascer- taining the capacity for making guns, munitions and what not, of every plant in England.

France has enlisted in this campaign her fleets of the air and of the sea and the two are collabo- rating in locating and destroying Germany's dndersea navy.

 WASHINGTON, July 6.-Burning of a large number of grain elevators in the middle west recently has prompted the government to start an investiga- tion to determine if German influences are responsible.

Warns Farmers of Unknown Seed Men

Warns Farmers of Unknown Seed Men.
Agents purporting to sell Wisconsin
pedigreed seed oats and possibly other
seeds have been working in southern
Minnesota, according to reports re-
ceived through the Minnesota Crop
Improvement association by c. P. Bull
at the Minnesota experiment station.
From reliable sources, says Mr..
Bull, information has been received
that it is unlikely that any Of the
growers Of pedigreed seeds in Wiscon-
sin have been sending agents to other
states to make sales. The home de-
mand is sufficient to take most Of the
seed.
On the other hand, the Minnesota
station has valuable pedigreed varie-
ties of oats and other farm seeds and
through the Minnesota Crop Improve
ment association growers are now list
ing these for sale. Varietal tests have
shown the Minnesota varieties equal
or even superior to introduced varie-
ties. Farmers are, therefore, eau
toned against buying from unknown
agents.

Washington, April A. - President
Wilson's address to congress contains
the first official reference to the gov.
ernment's refusal to receive Count
Tarnowski, newly accredited Austro
Hungarian ambassador, and makes
clear that the president has no inten-
ton of forcing diplomatic break with
Austria at present. The president
said: ,... .=
'The Austro-H Hungarian government
has, indeed, avowed it's unqualified
endorsement and acceptance of the
reckless and lawless submarine war
fare adopted now without disguise by
the imperial German government and
it has therefore not been possible for
this government to receive Count Tar
nowski, the ambassador recently ac-
credited to this government by the i'm
perial and royal government of Aus
tria- Hungary, but that government has
not actually engaged in warfare
against citizens of the United States
on the seas and take the liberty for
the present, at least, of postponing
discussion of our relations with the
authorities at Vienna"

The idea of using dangling tassels

DIFFICULT TO GET
RID OF CORN SMUT
Rotation Is Recommended by COL
orado Expert as the Best
Method in Large Fields.

(By H. L. VAsEY, Colorado Agricultural
College, Fort Collins)
How can you prevent smut in corni
Would seed treatment destroy iti
Unfortunately, there is no practical
method OF preventing corn smut. A
seed treatment does no good because
the smut itself is not carried on the
grain, as II is in the case OF wheat
or oat smuts. Corn smut lives over
winter in the soil ana gains entrance
TO new plants by means of spores
which pass from the soil TO the tender
parts of the corn plant where infec-
lions are started.
Where II Is not too impractical, as In
the case Of small fields OF sweet corn,
the smut boils may be cut OF before
they break open, and then burned.
This, OF course, makes too much labor
where the field is OF any great size.
Rotation OF crops Is TO be consid
cred the most effective way OF handling
corn smut. A soil which is badly con-
tamlnated with smut can be sown TO
oats or wheat. or other crops, for O
period OF two years and then followed
again with corn. Very little, IL any,
corn smut will persist In the soil for
q longer time than this
