AWAKEN TO EVILS OF
U-BOAT WARFARE

Copenhagen, July ga remarkably
frank article by the Berlin correspond.
ent of the National Tidende, passed by
the foreign office censorship, discussed
the seapy side of the submarine cam
paign and the effect it has upon neu.
trails. 1t is generally recognized, he
says, that the longer the campaign
continues the fewer friends Germany
will have after the war
This consideration, together with
the thoughts of the many billions
which another six months war would
cost, were the two principal factors
which contributed to bringing ma
jority of the reichstag into line upon
a bid iDr immediate peace.
The correspondent says it is gen.
orally admitted that the effect of the
campaign has been miscalculated, not
regarding the amount of tonnage de-
stroyed, but as to the time required
to make it's effect felt in England.
The German people are still convinced
that it will succeed eventually If Civ
en- time and they themselves are able
to hold out.

WANT ROAD IMPROVED

Lafayette citizens are deeply in
terested, and justly so, in an effort to
have improved a two mile strip OF
road running northwesterly from Lodi
to Lafayette, beginning at the West
field township line. The road is known
as Inter-county Highway No. 1Ss.
At their meeting Monday the COM
missioners were waited upon by a
delegation of Lafayette citizens to
emphasize their desires, augmented
| by Commissioners-elect Scanlan, Al
bert and Baughman, all Of whom were
agreed that the road should be i'm
proved, and who asked the commits
sioners to draw up resolutions auth
orizing the Improvement.
It is estimated that the cost OF the
improvement would approximate $780,
600. This amount the commissioners
assert they do not possess, and they
also refused to enter into any nego
tiations that, as they put it, would tn
the hands Of the incoming board, de
I spite the latter's expressed willing
4 ness to be tied. Thus the days dis
cussion was totally unproductive.

GREATEST HOLSTEIN
SALE EVER KNOWN

There was never known such Drices
for dairy cattle as were paid for the
registered Holstiens at the saleof the
National Holstein- Freisian sale com
panyof New England, held in Worces-
ter, Mass, on June and 8, following
the annual meeting Of the Holstein-
Fresian association Of Monica. Price
records were broken and broken again
on the first day of the sale, and still
higher levels were reached on the
second.
There was great demonstration
when the little 3-months-old son of
Rag Apple Korndyke 9th and the 46
lb. heifer was let into the ring. Three
or four offers of $4,000 were first
bids on this 3-months-old bull calf,
and the bids rose quickly to $4,000
and S35, 1000. Mr.. John Arfman (who
had paid $4,000 seven years ago for
young bull, at that time the highest
lnown), dropped off the bidding at
S37. 500. Mr.. Shanahan Of New York
and Mr.. D. W. Fields of Brockton,
Mass, continued bidding. Mr.. Shan

then bid 1920 and bought the calf.
! The highest price ever known for an
animal of this kind.
It will be of interest to the breeders
of Medina county to know that the

and the one of the Stevens Bros. last
month at Syracure, N. Y, amounted tt
