Reference was made in the Yantic news Friday to the extraordinary sue cess which Rev C. T, .McCann. for merly of Norwich Town, has had with his prize poultry. A Manchester paper says of this matter:

 To treat a cold with weakening physics, alcoholic syrups or drugged pills, may smother the cold but they also reduce the body powers still furtherand invite more serious sickness.

Cure For Submarine Hasn't Yet Been Invented, Because There Is None, Says leu tonic Argument.

AMSTERDAM. via London. April 2l. -"Wm the American fleet enable our enemies to break our submarine block ade? The answer. most certainly not, says the E0Clnische Nolks Zeituns. which adduccs a curious and cummu- lative argument which it evidently considers final Chat the submarine cure has not been invented. Therefore it cannot be invented because there is none"
 Tt will be painful for us" the rews- paper continues. "to sink good German ships, but we cannot be sentimental in this respect and will dispose of Americas seizures in 15 to 20 days. The loss of German capital in that connection will hardly equal three days of our war expenditures"
 The Volks Zeitung next examines the possibility that the United States will send a fleet to German ports and river mouths to attack the submarines in their home bases and says that they will find Germany prepared and that the scheme is improbable as the Unit ed States probably would avoid any undertaking that might seriously di- minish the number of her modern fighting ships. The article boastingly concludes:
 AM in all, if our high seas fleet faced the American fleet in open bat tie. we would beat them very quickly and thoroughly. But this is unlikely because, before that is possible, our submarines, with the mailed fist. will have imposed a law of world peace on the enemy and also on America"
