US. NOT TO MAKE SEPARATE REPLY
 TO ALLIES NOTE
Germany Unwilling to En- ter Peace League if She
 Is Crushed.

Washin gton, Jan. 1S.-There prob- ably will be no separate reply toI Great Britain's supplemental note to President Wilson regarding peace, which was delivered to the state de- partment yesterday.
 Officials of the administration frankly are eratified over the tone Of the communication and construe it as an endorsement of the presidents suggestion of a world league for peace but no formal statement on the sub- iect is considered necessary at this tme and it has not been decided what shall be the next move on tho part of the United States.
 Diplomatics here form the opinion tEat Germany under nc consideration would enter league to preserve peace if she should emerge from the war much more greatly damaged than her enemies. The central powers are represented as believing that the pro- posal for the establishment of such a league cannot be realized if the ulti- mate result is such as to permit completely victorious set of belliger- ents to impose their own terms on their vanquished enemies. Germany. it is understood. would be willing to enter the proposed league only if it would result in a peace that all the participants in the present war should consider just and fair, which would not be the case if the entente im- posed it's own conditions.
 Some officials see in the British note a move to set on foot move ment for the establishment of world league to become effective after the war, and thereby aiding in paving the way to a termination of the present conflict.

Five Thousand Kinds of Graes.

If you are farmer, do you happen to know how many kinds of grasses there are? Five thousand! But out of this great number man uses only 19 varieties, .s a rule, and only five of those are extensively cultivated. It is a curious fact that while practically every other farm crop has undergone great changes under cultivation, grasses are almost the same now as wher man first began to use them as 8 wild plant.

Wonderful Siberian Railway.


The great railway Of 5000 miles In
length that runs across Siberia is one
of the most marvellous in the world
first because Of the difficulties that had
to be faced in building it and, second.
ly, because Of it's enormous length
For nearly 1000 miles along this steel
track the line crosses an almost tree.
less plain. All the stations along those
weary miles are at least thirty miles
apart, and most of the villages are a
long way from the stations.
In winter this Siberian line is one
continuous view Of snow, stretching
for miles along the seemingly endless
desert. Sometimes the villages and
stations are almost buried in snow, and
not infrequently the train gets showed
up. Water for the stoves and the en-
gines has to be brought steaming hot,
lest it should freeze on the way, and
often men at the stations in the depth
of winter have to chop off long icicles
from the engine and cars. But even
the intense cold has its advantages, for
dairy products, such as cheese and but
ter, can be carried by rail without hav-
ing to be put into refrigerating trucks.

council of the American Red Cross

not lost some member on the battle
field.

Drier for Photographers.

Chloride of calcium is sometimes
used to absorb moisture and keep GER
tain Photographic products dry, such
as platinum paper or carbon paper;
but a photographer has discovered
that cardboard of the heavy kind will
act as a good drier. The card is used
in rough sheets, it being well dried
by heat and then wrapped in waxed
paper SO as to leave only the edge
of the board free and thus not absorb
moisture too quickly.
