Kuehlmann, the German foreign secre.
tary, and an astute politician, has been
chosen unanimously as Official chair

A noteworthy fact in the compost

Gus countries allied with the Austro-
Germans is that they include men who
have stood high in the councils of
their respective countries, while the
men who are to handle Russia's in.
terests for the most part are unknown
in world politics.
Still another outstanding fact in the
meager details Of the formation of
the conference that thus far have
come through Is that Roumania is not
credited with having sent delegates.
The possibility is, therefore, that Rou-
mania has decided to hold aloof from
discussing separate peace, notwith-
standing the fact that geographically
she will be completely isolated
from her allies should the negotia-
tons result In Russia quitting the war.

ss)-Losing the Monte Asolone
positions within "a hours after they
had captured them, thus being unex-
pectedly baked in their march toward
the plain the Austro-G German forces are
concentrating heavily, according to
reports, north and northeast of this
important approach to dominating
Monte Grappa.
A new and unexpected vigorous on
slought on the barriers to the plains
is expected soon, not only at Grappa
itself, but on the Asiago plateau and
possibly on the Lower Piave. where
enemy troop concentrations ALSO are
recorded
Although expert opinion appears
to be approaching unanimity that
the Austrians have given up hope of
breaking through the Italian line at
present, 80 far as to force another
great retreat, information indicates
the enemy wants to achieve another
big success by capturing all peaks
commanding the plain and would
vastly prefer position at the north.

conditions would favor his troops.
while possession of the peaks would
enable him to control the territory
for miles in front of them.
Enemy Far From Objective.
A visit to the Grappa sector, how
10 o,vfANf0nt ~
ingly how far the enemy is from
achieving these detectives and how
formidable the Italian positions are
backed up by q rejuvenated army.
Immediately after the regaining OF
the Asolene heights, the correspon-
dent found it possible to proceed to
vantage point slightly south and
west of Grappa, which, at the time,
was being viciously bombarded with
shrapnel by the enemy, who had lost
1t few hours before.
Had the enemy been able to hold
it and capture Monte Grappa, which
latter is the enemy's objective as the
completely dominating position OF
the entire range, this key position
would have been seriously menaced.
Their rebuff at this important
point, however, keeps the Austro-
German forces not only at consid-
cradle distance from the plain they
are seeking, but makes their prog
ress toward it difficult now that the
weather conditions are increasing in
severity.
Furious Battles Predicted.
The concentrations on the Asiago
plateau and along the lower Pave,
while perhaps numerically less i'm
portant than those in the Grappa re-
giOn, are ADMITTEDLY for the same
purpose, according to the admissions
of prisoners, who say the condition Of
their troops is terrible and they
must at all costs secure q line on
the plain and control the Brenta and
Piave valleys so that they will not
have to endure the winter In the
mountains.
I'VE must secure these things o..

necessary" were the words in which
one Austrian summed up the sit.

without exception, predict that the

furious battles which will last q fort

WOMEN NEVER CAN SEE JOKE
This Was Browns Conclusion After He Had Accounted One That Had
 Been Told to Him.

Brown met Johnson the other morn ing hurrying along the street. The latter had a parce.under his arm, and Brown. always inquisitive, wanted to know what it contained.
 Well" said Johnson. If you must know, I've just bought I pair of gaiters very nice ones, teo.'
 "Where at?n asked Brown.
 "Oh. I don't know the name, but it's little shop just down that alley across there,'' said Johnson.
 "Ha=ha :" laughed Brown, who al- ways liked his little joke, then they must be alleygaiters.
 This so tickled Johnson that he made up his mind that he must tell that to his wife, so, on reaching home he burst into the room, and laughed until his wife thought he would never stop.
 She could not make out what on earth was the joke, so Johnson started to tell her.
 .'Ha-ha, he-he. Oh, Tor, such ioke I just met Brown, and he asked me what I'd got in my parcel.
 II told him I'd bought new pair of leggings, but didn't know the name of the shop, but it was just down the court.
 He immediately made a good joke

winds make the wounds slow to heal, and there is danger of forming dis eased spot where the cut is made.
 Some claim that when a large branch is removed. it will heal faster when removed in midwinter, but there are some serious objections to that rule. 1t is. very busy time, the foliage is heavy and hard to handle, and the re- moval of large portion of the tree injures the growth of the tree.
 1 have found February and March q very good time to prune when the trees need severe pruning.
 With grapes, have found that those pruned in the fall, and those pruned in the winter and spring, made about the same amount of fruit and wood.
 We have followed this practice for q number of years and have not no- ticed any difference h the effects of the fall, winter or spring pruning, in our 30-acre vineyard.
 But we have noticed one advantage in late winter or spring pruning of grapevines, and that is the fact that deep snow often breaks the canes that have been left after pruning, worse than when they are left attached to the wood that is removed early in the spring.
The Monticellonian., 1917-05-24
ATTEND TO THE LAWN

How are the lawn and home grounds In general? Are they all that they should be to make the home summer life enjoyable and pleasing sight to the passer-by?
 If the lawn is patehy and bare in spots. keep on seeding It the whole summer through: the seed will finally catch and fill up the bare places.
 White clover Is a fine lawn plant, but many find that 1t dies out after few years White clover, as all the clovers, is Il biennial, completely dy- ing after the second year. If the lawn is kept closely clipped, white clover seed should be sown each fall or spring to insure permanent stand.
 The same result may be secured by not moving in the fall, allowing the plants to blossom and seed.
