McAdoo and Rainsy WIN :
duoe the Bill Thursd 1Ss d

Washington, April 8. ~ seis
ion to introduce the 5000 81 lio,
bond issue measure Thurs j,
the House was reached t0l1 BY
Secretary McAdoo and Rspsa zen
tative Raincy of Illinois, liine
Democratic member Of thu way.
and means committee.
The measure will carry " 3 .0O(
million dollar issue for q loan to
the Allies and 1000 million dol.
lar issue for conducting tn war
for this country. The 1900 mil
lion dollar issue is expected to
meet approximately one-half Of
this country war expenses slp to
June 80, 1918. Consideration Of
plans for raising additional funds
by taxation for conducting the
war for this country will Scome
later. The most essential thing to
be accomplished now, it is agreed,
is to prepare the Allies loan in
order that they may obtain much
needed food and munitions.
Every effort to rush the bond
measure through the House will
be considered by the ways and
means committee Wednesday.
The question of the tenure of
the bonds has not been definitely
decided. Some members of the
committee prefer 50-ycar bonds,
but think it would be best to pay
hem off at different times.
The question of raising money
~ taxation still is being consid-
,red and it is generally agreed
hat excess profits, incomes and
certain luxuries will be heavily
axed. Opposition to increasing
he inheritance tax because Of in
difference with state inheritance
AK laws has appeared, but it is
'elieved will not prove strong
nough to prevent raising the
government inheritance tax.

If he snpposes we are going

he hopes the German people are
about to follow our example and
dethrone their emperor we can do
no other than warmly applaud

AUSTRIA BREAKS!
A Declaration of War Regarded
as Certain to Follow the
Severance of Re-
lations.

Washington, April 9.-Aus
tria-Hungary, under the pressure
Of Germany, has severed diplo
matte relations with the Unitet
States. Baron Erich Zweidinek

Hungarian embassy here, calico
at the State Department today

Almost at the same time dis

en- off diplomatic relations with
the Unite Estates in Vienna yes

done by handing passports to
American Charge Crew. Ameri-
can Ambassador Penfield; who
had left Vienna Saturday, prob
ably did not know of the govern
ment S action. The American am
bassador arrived today at Zurich.
BY Encouragement Spain will
take over the diplomatic and con-
sular interests of the United
States in Austria Hungary. All
Austrian consular agents will de-
part from the United States with
the diplomatic mission, as was the
case with Germany.
Austria Hungary has asked
Sweden to take over her interests
in the United States.
Up to the time Charge Zwiedin-
Elk asked for his passports no sim
liar action had been taken by Bull

bther two allies, and their repre-
sentatives here disclaimed having
any knowledge of the intention
of their governments. 1t is ex-
pected here they-will follow by

Austria s break with the United

What should one use for the green
worm on cabbage? They eat holes in
the leaves that form the head of the
cabbage.-U. E. X.
Answer: Use white hellebore, full
strength dry or one pound to three gal
Ions of water. Lime busted on dry is
also beneficial. Some growers also
use alum water by dissolving one
tablespoonful in gallon of water.
These worms are rather conspicuous
and if one has only few plants, he
may easily pick the worms and de-
stroy them mechanically.

on each plant. The other leaves do
not look healthy. Is there anything /
can do to prevent the disease from
spreading to the rest of the leaves?-
A. L. X.
Answer: Turn one Of the yellowish
leaves upside down, and you will no
doubt find that the under surface of
these leaves are covered with dark
green bugs. These are plant lice and
are sucking the juice from the leaves.
Use contact spray-Black Leaf 40
and destroy the plant lice by hitting
them with the spray mixture.
