A Road to PrenaredneSS.

The American has insisted and rein
sisted that one great value III the
League to Enforce Peace is the fact
that its sincere supporters must also
be supporters Of preparedness. To enter
q league, unprcpared to furnish our
quota Of men ard ships to enforce
peace would be so humilating that no
true American for moment would
consider it as q possibility.
We are glad to see this view taken
strongly by Professor Albert Bushnell
Hart of Harvard the eminent histori-
cal scholar. He devotes a long article
i'll the New York Times to the Presi-
dent 5 peace speech. In the course
of it Professor Hart quotes President
Wilson as saying that, to insure peace,
ga force must be created so much
greater than the force of any alliance
hitherto formed or projected, that no
nation, no probable combination of ma
lions, could face or withstand il.
Prof. Hart continues:
Ii that means anything definite, il
| means an international police force OF
not less than 10000 men, in which
the share of the United States would
be at least 100000. This is limit
on the disarmament Of the world; yet
/ it is clear that unless some means i:
provided for confronting any big az
! gressive nation that is determined Il
| gain its end by force, the whole schem,
of universal peace is endangered.
To enter q League to Enforce Peace
then, as President Wilson suggests
/ the United States must have an army
in Professor Hart 5 opinion, Of at leas
tional police force which is to insur
peace. But raising an army Of 500,00
men evidently means preparedness
even beyond the expectation Of

EARLY MATCHING
BRINGS WINTER EGGS
A Simple Way for Poultry Owners to
Profit from High Prices in Fall
and Winter e... .

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. a.
Early Matching is the secret of winter
egg production, say specialists IN the
United States department of agrlcul-
tmc. The pullet that is Matched early
natures early and Is ready to lay eggs
in the fall when the supply IS scarcest
and prices highest. Chickens that are
expected to be revenue producers for
their owners later in the year should
be out of their shells by April 80 at
the latest If they are properly cared
for thereafter they will begin to lay
eggs at the very time that eggs are
most wanted.
To a great extent the poultrymen of
the country have overlooked this simple
fact. For one thing, birds Matched
later in the spring or summer are not
inclined to become broodv until late
the following season and thus an un.
profitable circle is formed Each year
pullcts mature too late to produce in
the fall and winter, and they sit toe
late for their offspring to do any better
The poultryman who wishes to get
really good returns from his flock must
break this circle.
The growing use Of incubators has
made TINS comparatively easier. mere
lis no reason why incubators should not
be filled in March and early April ant
1 the Matching over before May l. i
no incubator is available il may be pos
/ siblo To secure broody hens in tn,
neighborhood. That they viii repay
the trouble and expense necessary t,
obtain them, is indicated by results a
the government poultry farm III Mary
land. There it is not unusual to ge
a daily average of one egg for ever,
five hens throughout the fall and win
ter, and in some pens the average ha
been as high as one egg for thrc
birds. If anything like this percentag
could be obtained on farms, the ord
nary poultry farmer would deriv
real benefit from the high prices whic
eggs invariably bring for a period Q
several months

.SIXTY-THREE CASES
OF SCARLET FEVER
Epidemic in Rutland Is Believed to
Have Been Caused by Infected Milk
From One Dairy.

RUTLAND, Feb. 13. ~ An unusual
outbreak Of scarlet fever has taken
place in this city, SO eases having been
reported TO DR.. F. II. Gebhardt, city
health officer, since Saturday afternoon.
Many of the eases are mild ones, but
more than an unusual percentage of the
patients are adults.
According to the health authorities,
the source of infection is believed to
have been traced to the dairy of DIR.
John A. Mead. an employee of the farm,
Arthur Graham, Of 20 Curtis avenue,
having been found to be carrier. Prac-
tically all of the eases are said to be
in families supplied with milk from this
farm. DR.. Gebhardt has ordered the
milk of the dairy pasteurized for the
present and Mr.. Graham has been $50
4 lated.
/ There was a rumor current that the
/ Rutland hospital had been quarantincd.
\ DR.. Gcbhardt stated that there were
three suspicious eases among the pa
|tients. but that they had not yet been
diagnosed as scarlet fever. Should the
patients prove to be suffering with the
malady they will probably be removed
to their homes or the isolation hospital.
/
statement concerning the situation:
''On Saturday afternoon several cases
Of scarlet fever were reported at the
same time. On making usual inquiries
it was found that all had obtained
their milk from the Mead dairy. We
made an investigation of the employees
of this dairy and found one car
lrier. Mr.. Graham. who has scarlet fever
in his family, and possibly has had the
disease in q mild form himself. This
imam was immediately sent home ant
marantined and the milk supply from
1.-THE dairy was ordered pasteurizcd IN
til further notice.
All precautions are being taken K
check the epidemic and it Is believed
that the outbreak will end when persons
who have already been infected develoI
the disease. Physicians and heads O,
, families are urged to report all suspi
cious eases to the health officer ut once
