FREE REIN IS GIVEN
 GOETHALS ON SHIPS
DIFFERENCES ON WOODEN VES- SEL PROGRAMME CLEARED
 AWAY-TO PUSH WORK.

Washington.-Diff Differences between Chairman Denman of the shipping board and Maj. Gen. Goethals, mana ger of the boards emergency fleet corporation, over the boards wooden shipbuilding campaign have been cleared away, it was stated, and the corporation will proceed with con- struction of both steel and wooden ships.
 Gen. Goethals, back from New York, where in speech he character. ized the plan to build 1000 wooden ships as hopeless, announced that the fleet corporation had let contracts for 24 more wooden ships and for six steel barges.
 It was said authoritatiyely that Gen. Goethals will be given free rein in the shipbuilding programme and that there will be no interfer- ence from the board Shipbuilding will be put entirely in his hands and the board will exercise it's other func- tions as prescribed in the law creat- ing it. Operation of the fleet, there fore, will be in the hands of the board.
 Gen. GoethaIs has accepted propo- sals by the United States Steel Cor poration and the Lackawanna Steel & Iron Company to turn out by fabri- cation processes 3,000000 tons of steel shipping in IS months, and will let contracts for wooden vessels as fast as wooden builders come forward with facilities for building them.
 The House sent to conference an amendment to the $750,000,000 ship construction appropriation section of the urgent deficiency bill eliminating a Senate provision to authorize the president to direct the fleet corpora tion's general manager to carry out provisions of the measure.
 Secretary McAdoo, announcing that $90O0,O0O had just been placed to the credit of the shipping board, said the board and Gen. Goethals had not been held up for a second for want of money and would not be.
 Referring to a statement attributed to Gen. Goetha1s in his recent New York speech that no attempt had been made to sell the $50,OOO,OOO of Pana- ma Canal bonds through which Con- gress authorized the raising of funds for the board, MT McAdoo said 1t was not necessary to sell the bonds immediately and that the board had been notified long ago that all the money required was available on re- quest. Before this allotment Inc board had asked for and received $1,- OOO,O00.

ARMY REGISTRATION
 WILL BE ENFORCED
ATTORNEY GENERAL GREGORY ORDERS SEEUTHS TO CLOSE
 IN ON CONSCIENTIOUS
KAIsER's HAND SUSPECTED
Entire Nation invited To Constitute Itself Committee as Whole and Every Man of Military Age
 Should Report Slackers.

Washington. = Attorney General Gregory instructed United States at torneys and marshals throughout the country to use their utmost efforts to arrest and prosecute all persons re sponsible for the agitation which has manifested itself in localities from New England to Texas against lae registration June of men subject to selective draft.
 This agitation has made itself felt somewhat in many sections, but thus far there apparently is little connec- tion between the outbreaks. Officials have undertaken an exhaustive in- vestigation to determine if the whole antidraft sentiment is not rooted in extensive machinations of German propagandists in this country, having a central headquarters.
 Color to this theory is lent, in some degree, by the marked similarity In the method of procedure in widely separated communities. Some off. cials believe that the entire agitation is manufactured by German agents who, baf1led in their original pro gramme calling for an armed upris. ing of German reservists in this coun try upon Americas entry into the war, have turned their energies to this method of hindering the military plans of the government.
 If such is the case the conspiracy will come to nothing, officials believe The Department of Justice, it was au thoritatively announced, expects 10t per cent of eligibles to register, and prompt prosecution under the crimi nal provisions of the law will be in stituted in the few cases where the law is not observed.
 To bring out the full registration Attorney General Gregory invited the entire nation to constitute itself 2 committee of the whole and ever! man of military age a committee e one to report slackers.

BORIS 8AKMETIEFF SAYS Flo COUNTRY WILL STlCk-HEAne
 COMMISSION TO THE u. S.
DIPLOMAT IS OPTIMISTIC
Declares New Regime Is carryino On Work of Organization SuccessfulIv and Will Soon Be Ready To
 Launch An Offensive.

Tokyo-"I am immensely satisfied with conditions in Russia, including Siberia,s said Prof. Boris Bakhms. tieff, the new Russian ambassador ta the United States, on arriving here q think the new regime is carving on the work of organization success. fully and will soon be able to launch an offensive against the enemy"
 Prof. Bakhmetieff is at the head of a special commission of 40 on its wav to the United States. He repudiated the idea that his country would make separate peace. The reorganized provisional government of Russia. which had wisely Incorporated labor clements in it's membership, was de, voting its efforts to organizing the national life, he said, and especially to strengthening the army. Difficult. ties have occurred, but they had been exaggerated, and it was unreasonable to assume that the ancient autocracy could be overthrown without encoun- tering resultant obstacles.
 During the trip from Petrograd Prof. Bakhmetieff said he was i'm. pressed by the desire of the people to cooperate with the government and continue the war to the victory which was essential to the salvation of Rus. sia.
 He found local committees at work everywhere. At Irkutsk and Vladl- vostok governors have been elected and they are controlling the situation ably.
 "Russia's war aims are similar to Americas," he continued, "as sister democracies they are fighting hand in hand. I am going to America with complete diplomatic powers. shall take up questions of munitions, sup. plies and finance.
 "I need scarcely emphasize our pro found appreciation of Americas help at the hour of the upbuilding of our democracy"
 Among the members of the commits sion are Gen. Ropp, who will be at tached to the American Army; M. Louonpoff, railroad expert, NJ. No ritzky, representing the finance min istry; M Borodin, representing the ministry of agriculture, and M. Oran- ovsky, an artillery expert.

Only One Day to Register.

The war department wishes to i'm press upon the people that there is only one day for registration. All males between the designated ages must register on the day set. The fact that five days were allowed for the placing of the necessary blank forms in the hands of registrars appears to have misled some headline writers. One day only--the day fixed in the presidents proclamation--will be de- voted to registration.

WHY NOT HAVE A
GOOD COW?

Give the children milk in
stead of tea or coffee. Accord
ing to a bulletin recently issued
by the Pasteur Institute of Par
is, milk as a natural stimulant
is highly recommended. In this
bulletin they state that milk
should be used to take thelplaee
of alcoholic drinks in the
trenches as we'll as in the hos
pitfalls. This is an interesting
statement when we remember
that milk is the most important
food for growing children. In
addition, it contains everything
needed by the baby and every
thing but iron required by the
adult. Milk will not only help
to make healthy, robust child
rem but if used freely by adults
will save the meat bills and
make the serving of a we'll bal
anced diet easy.

GIVE THE HORSE A
FAIR SHOW

No work animals should have
been allowed to stand idle all
winter. Wherever this has been
done, there has been some bad
management. There is not a
farm in all this section in which
some winter work for the teams
cannot be found, and wherever
it can be found, it should be
done. The idle horse is just
about the most expensive ami
NAL going-eXcept the scrub
sire.
But, if the horses have been
doing nothing or very little,
remember that when the work
season opens up they cannot
be put at once to hard work.
The horse or mule that has
rested all winter is in no fix to
do a full days work the first
few days he is put to it. The
ma nwho forgets this and does
not make allowances is not CIV
ing his work stock fair show.
