The Importance of stock on the
farm is recognized by farmers in all
parts of the country. No longer
does the farmer depend upon crops
alone for his income. He has learn
ed the folly of placing all of his
eggs in one basket. That man has
several crops at his disposal will
have greater chance of netting
some cash returns than If he has but
one crop is self evident because it
is not likely that each of his crops
will be a drug on the market in any
one year.
Especially has the farmer learned
that in years of drought his cattle

ROADS WILL ASK
SECOND ADVANCE

WASHINGTON, Nov. 21.-Argu-
ments in the eastern railroads Is
per cent advance rate case before the
interstate commerce commission
closed with a statement of counsel
for the roads that even if this in
crease is granted they soon will ask
for another advance of approximate
ly Is per cent in class and commod-
ity rates and 10 cents a ton on coal
and coke.
What is the intention of the rail
roads" asked Commissioner Nc
Chord. Ito make the sky the limit"
'As cost increases, rates must go
up If we are to proceed on sound
basis" answered John S. Patterson
of counsel for the railroads.
With both sides agreed that the
railroads income had increased the
chief point of contention was whe-
Their the additional revenue had off
set the increased cost of operation
Mr.. Patterson, the only attorney
speaking for the roads, said the last
advance had failed by about $780,
100000 to cover the increased ex-
penses of the thirty eight systems.
Counsel for the shippers maintain
ed that by use of the additional rev.
enues and surplus the railroads
would not be in a worse condition
than other businesses and that under
such circumstances they should not
expect to impose additional burden
on the shippers. Mr.. Patterson re-

USE MORE CHEESE
AND LESS MEAT

The making of cheese on the
farm and its increased consumption
is advocated by those conversant
with the food situation 1t is one of
the best substitutes for meat. and
is relatively inexpensive and is pre-
pared without a great deal of bother.
Europe has long recognized the
value of cheese as a supplement to
its meat diet. In the year 1911 the
people of Holland consumed S.07
pounds of cheese per person. The
average consumption by the Ameri-
can is little less than 3.5 pounds

to produce some Of the cultivated
crops. nevertheless there is usually
growth OF pasturage sufficient for
cattle. With stock on the land the
farmer finds that he has work dis
tributed over twelve months of the
year instead Of only five or six, and
during the summer months when
other matters are demanding consid-
cradle attention, the animals are
getting their living and laying on
flesh by their own efforts.
However, it not infrequently hap
pens that many of our farmers dis
pose of their stock in the early fall
when the cattle market is glutted and
the surplus of grass fed beef brings
a slump in the markets If some &C.
onomical feeding method could be
utilized so as to hold beef stock a
little while after this rush, it is
quite possible that a much better re
turn would be secured to the farm
er by reason of the advance which
the prices generally take.
In some parts of the State good
money has been made by finishing
the animals on beet pulp, molasses,
syrup, grain and cotton seed cake. 1t
is not possible, of course. in all
parts of the State to put into prac-
tice a scheme as this, but in many
places some money could easily be
made by farmers If they would feed
their grass fattened animals a little
later in the fall and hold them up
without letting them lose weight.

ENCOURAGE THE
USE or MILK

Under the present conditions milk
is one Of our cheapest and best Of
foods, aud its production and use
should be encouraged. one quart Of
milk viii furnish as much food as
four fifths OF Il pound of meat, or
as much as eight eggs.
Because of its food value, no milk
should be wasted. Young and grow
ing children should be provided with
all they need.
We need to encourage also, a
greater production of milk, and it
will help TO conserve other foods
which we can ship to our Allies

JAPANESE TWAIN
DIED TOGETHER
SOCIETY STIRRED BY DOUBLE SUI
eide OF COUNTS DAUGHTER
AND HIS CHAUFFEUR.
(By Associated Press.)

TOXIC, Apr. 25.-Japanesc society is
stirred by a case of "shinju,"' or double
suicide, affecting the family of Count Aki-
masa Y~oshikawa. vice president of the
privy council. His daughter, Mrs. kwanji
Yoshikawa and Rikisuke Kuramochi, her
chauffeur, are alleged to have sought
death in the path of a railroad train.
The chauffeur threw the woman on the
tracks, but evidently lacked time to carry
cut his intention of following her.. Instead
he drew a short sword, slashed his throat
and died a few moments later. Mrs. Yosh-
ikawa was tassed from the rails by the en-
CINE. Her condition was pronounced crit
cal.
The husband of Mrs. Yoshikawa has
been adopted to the Yoshikawa family, be-
coming the heir to the count.
A case of "%sinju" is not unusual in Jap
an and since the olden days many fanci-
full love stories have been woven around
this japanese practice. II is e%xtraordin-
AIRY, however, for a woman of as high birth
as Count Yoshikawa's daughter TO choose
TO end her life in such a fashion. The
fact that the woman was married and thai
she sought death with her chauffeur
heightens the interests of the affair in Jap.

German Papers Report
Disappearance Coins

EERNE, Apr. 25.-German papers re
port a vexations and almost mysterious
disappearance of small coins, making il
constantly necessary to issue new pro-
I%vi,ional iron money which must be "cash-
cd in" after the war.
The government, since 1916, has coined
and issued 10,603. 900 marks worth of sill
yer 80 pfennig pieces, most of which have
disappeared from sight almost n fast a
l0-pfennig pieces and about a. many s.
pfennig pieces made Of iron. and even these
are disappearing. Some business firms
are known to nave in some cases a. much
~ 10000 marks. worth Of iron money.
The situation j. To be relieved, ii is re-
ported, by a huge issue of "bons' for 80
pfennies apiece, which will he put out by
individual municipalities and taken up
after the war.
The shortage Of small money, and it
retirement from circulation and INTO
countless stockings, has been under way
for more than two years. 1t began orig
mally in the occupied portion of France,
then spread To similar districts in Russia.
Its first result was the issue of municipal
money all over Northern France,
and the issue of military orders forbidding
the natives to accept either French or
German money but to acEept only town
''bons."

letter of recommendation.

hington.-President Wilson and
his Cabinet at an extended conference
mapped out in detail the policy OF
this Government in dealing with the
situation arising out Of the severance
Of diplomatic relations with Germany
They decided that war is by an act
OF Germany and not by an act Of the
United States.
Only If the Germans wantonly sink

Of Americans will President Wilson go
before Congress in what he described
as his next step and ask authority
be given 10 use any means that may
be necessary for the protection OF our
seamen and our people in the prosecu-
tion of their peaceful ana legitimate
errands on the high seas
The policy Of the United States in
the present crisis may be accurately
forecast as abiding to the letter by the
Presidents notification to Congress.
II was made forcefully clear after
the Cabinet meeting that by no act
will the Administration lay Itself open
for Germany TO point the finger Of
blame and hurl the charge that We
are unneutral Every nicely OF in
ternational law will be scrupulously
observed in dealing with Germany and
with her subjects in this country.
Then, If by act Of aggression uDon
our rights at sea, Germany forces
the iSsue the Administration feels
that It can go with a clear conscience
before the American people and the
world and do whatever may be neces-
sary to defend the rights abridged
by Germany's lawless action.
The Administration was careful to
let II be known that the overt act"
must find its birth with Germany. and
that the act must be so-clear-cut and
decisively Illegal and unlawful that
no other course would be open to
us except TO defend ourselves.
