ALLIES REPLY
Entente Answer to Peace
Proposals Is Dispatched
to Central Powers.

Washington. Jan. 2.--The entente
reply rejecting the peace proposal of
the central powers was cabled by the
state department today for the pres
entation to Germany and the other
belligerent governments whose diplo-
matte interests the United States rep
resents at allied capitals. To save time,
the cabled English translation will be
dispatched from here and Ambassador
Sharp was instructed to forward the
French text direct from Paris. 1t was
authoritativelS stated during the day
that President Wilson had not decided
what, if any, further move in the in
terest of peace, he might make, but
was keeping an open mind on the
subject while waiting for the entente's
answer to his note proposing a discus
sion of terms by the helligerents.
Discussion of the advisability of leg
islatire action approving the course of
the president in sending his note oc-
cupied the senate for more than an
hour and will be resumed tomorrow.
Peculiar interest attached to state
ments during she debate by Senator
Stone. chairman of the foreign re-
lations committee, who had an hours
conference yesterday with President
Wilson. In this connection administra-
tion officials took pains to make clear
hnf ho AZ
by congress, though of course, he
would not like to see proposal to en-
dorse his policy defeated.
The discussion began when Senator
Hitchcock's resolution to approve the
note introduced just before the holi-
day recess. automatically came before
the senate for consideration. Demo
cratic leaders. including Senator Stone
urged that the resolution should be
passed without delay or prolonged de-
bate.
Senator Lodge. Republican member
of the foreign relations committee
Senator Gallinger, the minority lead
er, Senator Borah and other Republic
an senators vigorously insisted that
Senator Hitchcock consent to let the
matter go to the foreign relations com
mittee for careful consideration, They
did not oppose the purpose Of the
resolution, but expressed the view that
the proposed action was fraught with
| such international importance that j,
should not be acted upon without very
careful consideration of all phases OF
! the war situation.
| There were strong intimations to-
night that the Republicans will in
sist upon thorough debate If Senator
Hitchcock persists tomorrow in his de-
| mand for a vote without reference te
a committee.
A resolution similar to that of Sen.
ator Hitchcock. was introduced in the
/ house late today by Representative

REDLlGHT DENIZENS
NOT LEAVING HELENA

Helena, Mont. Jan. 2.-(Special.)-
Although reports have been sent out
that denizens of Helena's redlight dis :
trict have been leaving the city on
account of Attorney General Ford's
statement with regard to closing all
the restricted districts in the state, the
reports seem to be without much
foundation.
The attorney general has stated that
he would not take any action until the
officers cf the various counties had
been given an opportunity to act.

DASHEEN A TUDER
MUCH LIKE POTATO

The dasheen, root crop introduced
into this country from Trinidad with
in recent years by the United States
department of agriculture, is now
grown by a considerable number of
farmers and truckers In the south and
promises to become a valuable mem
Der of the group of domestic vegeta-
bles, such as the potato, which furnish
starchy foods. The dasheen Is itself
primarily a tropical plant. 1t can be
grown successfully, however, not only
in the warmer portions Of Florida, but
In other sections of the south as far
north as South Carolina. The edible
portion Of the plant includes large
central CORN and a number of tubers,
Of much smaller size, attached to and
around the CORN.
In food value the dasheen is compa-
rable to the potato, though it contains
a small proportion of water ana
greater proportion of protein, starch
and sugar than the latter. The new
vegetable may be prepared for the ta-
bic as potatoes usually are or may be
made into flour and used in baking.
The dasheen Is grown from whole
tubers weighing few ounces They
require frostless season Of at least
seven months with plenty of moisture.

DRAFT HORSE ACTION.

snappy Walk With Long Stride lndI-
Gates the Good Ground coverer.
Proper action In the draft horse Is
important, according to David Gray,
assistant in animal husbandry in the
Kansas State Agricultural college. Size
and power are OF little value If the
horse has not enough agility to handle
big weight in manner yielding the
greatest efficiency.
Action Of the draft horse should be
clean, bold and rather stylish. In NOV
ing the feet should be carried forward
and back In straight line without pad
ding, winging or other irregularity Of
gait. In order to get the best and
greatest stride with the least energy It
Is absolutely necessary that the feet
move straight and smooth without de
fects Of gait.
Knee action In the draft horse Is not
of great Importance. A long stride
which covers considerable ground is
much more important than high knee
action, as ability to cover ground Is
what is wanted. The walk is the i'm
portant gait. 1t should be snappy and
true with good length of stride

shortly after birth as diarrhea with
light colored offensive droppings. Dur
ing the course Of this disease the calf

A SAFE TEST

For those who are in need of remedy
for kidney troubles and backache, it is
good plan to try Doan's Kidney Pills.
They are strongly recommended by
Mount Holly people.
Mrs. Charles H. Jenness, I35 West
Washington street, Mount Holly, says:
Kidney and bladder trouble caused me
much suffering and had fainting and
dizzy spells. tried several kinds of
kidney medicine without benefit until /
got Doan's Kidney Pills. They relieved
me from the first and soon restored me
to good health.
Mrs. Jenness gave the above state
ment on May s, 1911 and on October 4.
1916 she added: II have remained free
from kidney trouble since being cured
by Doan's Kidney Pills. l am still
firm believer in this remedy and am
pleased to again give it my endorse
ment.n

RatIon Eor SAW.

In districts where corn is plentiful
there Is a temptation to feed sows al
most exclusively upon corn. Such a
method Of feeding cannot give the best
results. Many farmers and breeders
win not appreciate this. 1t is also rath-
er too fattening and heating to feed In
large quantities to SOW during gesta-
ton. A ration Of equal parts ground
corn, ground oats and wheat middlings,
with supplement OF tankage, linseed
meal or skimmilk. is good one.

Time Comes to Use It.
Vanishing a fishing rod Is simple
enough if one viii only take the time,
and 1t is easy to make ten dollar rod
look like the expensive, made to order
article. The work should be taken in
hand couple Of months before the
season opens or before ones fishing va
cation begins.
The books and the magazines will
tell you to flow" the varnish on. For
get it. Use as little varnish on the
brush as possible and work it out un-
til the brush slides of the rod. When
the first coat is finished the rod will be
covered with brush marks. Put the
rod away for week. When you take
1t out again those marks will have dis
appeared. Three coats are necessary,
four or five or better if they have been
well brushed out. Polish with rag,
powdered stone and crude OIL Use a
little stone, lots of oil and all the rub
bling you have patience to give. Re-
member, the success of the operation
depends on allowing each coat of var
nish to dry thoroughly.
While waiting for the varnish to dry
the methodical man would naturally
look over his stock of flies, discarding
the damaged ones Those that are
only mussed can be doctored with
steam. Put cork with a small hole
through it in the spout of teakettle
or hold the fly over the vent in your
radiator. Make a bodlkin by sticking
needle in a small piece of wood With
the needle point stroke up the wings
and hackles. If the fly is badly stuck
together it can be washed in tepid
suds. Stick the flies in strip Of cork
or soft wood until dry; then put them
away In moth balls or tobacco.
Soak the old leaders and test them
while wet II you are fly fisherman
buy some lengths of gut Of the same
size as the end of the leader and tie
strand to each. Leaders heightened in
this way last much longer. Breaks oc-
cur most often near the end, and you
viii lose only the piece you tied en-.
This is particularly true of tapered
leaders.
Clean and oil the reel, even if IT
cost only dollar Rub the lines with
a very little crude oil and if badly
worn apply some of the preparations
for refnishing enameled lines. If pos
sible get an old trunk or large box
and keep everything together.
Then, brethren, when the time comes
you can repair to your fayorite stream
with that peace and tranquility of
mind which have been our heritage
since the days Of Walton.-New York

Profit In Pure Bred Hogs.

II you want to get started in pure
bred hogs cheaply buy pure bred gilt
due to farrow In the spring and a good
pure bred boar pig. You can use this
boar on the sow and the SOW pigs next
fall and also the following year. BY
raising two filters year youcan have
ten or twelve pure bred sows and gifts
ready to breed by the time you need a
new boar. If you make good selections
In the beginning You can probably sell
