STOCK MARKET STIFFENS.
Opening Prices Are Higher on Nearly
Everything.

New York. March 20.-The early ac-
ton OF the stock market yesterday was
general surprise to the street nearly
everything on the list being at higher
level, in the first ID minutes, although
the speculative element had looked for
supply at concessions in view OF the inn
portant character of the news develop
ments over Sunday. News pertaining to
settlement of the railroad strike and
circumstances attending the sinking Of
the three United States vessels by Ger
man u boats were conflicting factors and
soon caused an uncertain situation with
irregular tendencies. Shipping stocks
dropped point or so while the munition
stocks hardened.

cision upholding the Adamson law, com

advances of a point or better in leading

that the stock market found its greatest
activity and strength.

cision gained circulation. Moderate prof

New York, March 20.-Twenty six
mail bags addressed to Washington were
found to have been rifed on board the
Cunard liner Szxonia upon her arrival
here yesterday.
The vessel brought 1850 sacks, but

captain We're informed the looted sacks
had been ripped open with a knife. Cap

ASSOCIATION NOTES.
Notes for Week Ending March IL.

At the annual meeting of the Nortl
Randolph Cow Test association held a
Randolph Center March II the count,
agent gave some figures taken from thei
| previous years report which might b
interesting to others who are still uncer
tain whether they need COW test asso
cia ton or not The average production
per COW was 1860 pounds milk and 23l
pounds fat, which valued at "a cents
gave return of $500. Adding to thi'
value of skim milk at 40 cents per l0t
pounds. the total value is S94.97. The
roughage cost S33.4S, grain S22.90, max.
ing feed cost OF S56.3S, making an aver
age profit of $2l 50 above feed cost. TAX
ing my estimate of the costs other than
feed of $40 and adding to feed, ii gives
the average herd a loss of Sl.4l per COW
These figures are about the same as those
of the average COW test association in
Vermont. OF the 80 herds, but Al per
cent made a profit. The best 10 herds
made a profit of SLIPS per COW and
the poorest 10 herds lost an average OF
Sl2.0S per COW, figuring costs as above.
The best COW in the association gave
500 pounds milk and 473 pounds fat,
with feed cost OF Ss905. The net profit
was SOL 81. The poorest COW in the as
ISOLATION gave 2,952 pounds milk and l04
pounds fat. with feed cost of S4635 and
a loss of S40.57. The difference between
these two cows in profit was Sl0l.l4. To
determine these values for our different
cows in the herd We need complete rec
ords as are given in a COW test associa-
ton. Milk records alone will not give us
true values, as is shown by the follow
ing figures. The herd which stood fifth
in milk production stood 18th in profit.
The herd which stood third in profit stood
l4th in milk production. The combined
milk and fat record is better but not
conclusive, as but one herd out of the
first 10 stood in the same relative posi-
ton that il did in fat production and the
herd which stood eighth in fat stood 2Sth
in profit The value of COW test as
ISOLATION or complete records kept at
home also aids in economical feeding.
This last is a question almost az impor
tant as knowing the production records
Of the COWS. But 30 per cent Of the
Of the Randolph Cow Test as
fed their cows on grain as eco
nomieally as the average of those whose
herds were producing similarly. Sixteen
per cent were feeding little grain and "a
per cent were feeding more than was
economical for the best profit The cost

KAISER FEARS REVOLT.
He Is Breaking with Junkers to Save the
Hohenzollefns.

London, March 20-The executive
committee of the British Socialist party
has decided to hold an informal party
conference on April 4, to consider the sit
uation in Russia and for the discussion
Of subjects arising in connection there
with. The recent speeches of Socialist
members in the Prussian diet, in which
sensational attacks were made on the
government, have caused considerable
| discussion as to the possibility of a reyo
| lutionary outbreak in Germany. In ref
erence to this. Henry NJ, Hyndman, lead
! err of the British Socialists, said in an
interview with the correspondent of The
Associated Press:
while the situation in Germany grows
more hopeful from our point of view, we
cannot see much prospect yet of revo-
luton there. 1t must be remembered
that the privations which the German
populace have had to endure in the past
year have Slapped much Of their strength
and made the probability of their revolt
ing less likely Yet il must be admitted
that forces are at work in Germany very
similar TO those in Russia In Russia the
people found that their efforts were null
lifted by clique of pro-German bureau
Gratis, while in Germany starvation and
privation are being actually aided and
abetted by the iunketeers.
The recent announcements by Chan
cellor Won Bethmann HcIweg promising
suffrage reform indicates that the Ho-
henzollerns are breaking with the junk |
ers, who brought on the war, and are en-
deavoring to get on better terms with |
the people. The whole aims of the Ho |
henzollerns from now on will be to save |
the dynasty in the crash which seems
almost inevitable. While, as | say, there
are no signs yet that 8 revolution in |
Germany is probable or even possible
every thinking man must admit to feel /
ing that there are great changes in the
air. A year ago a man who would pre-.
dict that the Socialist Milukotf would
within IL months become the best man
in Russia would have been called crazy.
1t is no more absurd to predict to-day
that Liebkneeht will become the leader
in Germany before another year goes
round do not perdict it, but / am
willing to say that it would not at all
surprise me.
Remember this: II is unthinkable
that the entente would conclude a lasting
peace with the Hohenzollerns. The peo-
Pile of the allied countries would repel
the thought of such a peace after the
we have endured. Revolution
in Germany and the fall of the dynasty I
seems the only way to the reconstruction
Of Europe on stable basis

A little Chicago boy was in a physi-
clans reception room with his mother
The doctor owned a little dog, which had
a very long body and very short legs,

at the pictures on the walls, and finally
exclaimed: Say, mother, do you see all

Landmark in World
History
HE SPEAKS TO
THE COMMONS

come on Thurs
day

London, March 20.-Premier Lloyd
George indicated in an announcement il
the House of Commons yesterday that on
Thursday he would move that the Brit
ish government extend congratulations
to the Russian Duma for its establish
ment of new government.
He characterized the Russian revolu-
ton as zone of the landmarks in the his
tory of the world"
The prime minister, however, said his
information does not indicate that all
danger in Russia has passed
"There has been deep discomfort IN
Russia" Lloyd George said, due to inef-
ficiency in conducting the war. The rev.
olution was effected with but little blood
shed. The new government will be gem
orally supported by the army, the navy
and the people
Members of the House of Commons
cheered vociferousIv when the premier
declared that the Russian soldiers had
refused to obey orders of the imperial
officials to shoot down food rioters.
81 am confident Premier Lloyd
George declared, that Russian events,
which are first triumph of the princi-
pies for which we entered the war, will
not result in confusion or in a sackening
of the conduct of the war. but on the
other hand, will make closer and more
effective the cooperation of the Russians
with the allies in the cause of human
freedom
Loud cheers from the Irish National
lists greeted Lloyd Georges statement
that the Russian people would find lib
erty compatible with order, even in rev
dictionary times, and that free people
were the best defenders of their own
honor"
Following Lloyd Georges statement as
to free people, the Irish leader nevlin
asked when a constituent assembly was
to be established in Ireland
The Irish members vigorously applaud |
ed the query, but Lloyd George did not
answer it.

Petrograd, March 20.--Full right of |
citizenship to Jews and abolition of the /

upon which the leaders of democratic I
Russia have determined. Jews through

rejoicing.
Petrograd is astir with enthusiasm;
its streets are packed with orderly
crowds. Public utilities are now running
as of old, Yesterday all newspapers
were republishing-a with entire free
dom of editorial power.
Many OF the newspapers which re-
sumed yesterday commemorated the
event by special editions full oC eulogics
of the new "free Russia including
poems and long analytical articles.
The Grand Duke Nicholas, now com
mander in chief of Russia's war forces, at
Tiflis yesterday ordered the release of all
political prisoners at Baku and exhorted
his soldiers to continue to obey their
lawful chiefs. He urged that they ode
