Petrograd, April 1.-THE party OF
the Fatherland and the army when
includes most OF the members Of the
Petrograd garrison, has passed reso-
luton strongly supporting the war.
ave urge the continuance Of the war
to victorious conclusion" reads the
resolution, namely, a peace restoring
the ancient frontiers of Russia and free
Poland, including the German and Rus
sian territory.
"A peace without the consent OF the
Allies would be shameful; would
threaten Russian liberty; would brand
us with disgrace and treason, separate
us from free England and republican
France, from Belgium, Serbia, Monte
negro and Rumanla, which have SUI
fered devastation in behalf OF their
friends. ana make US perjurers IN our
solemn oaths to free Poland
The party demands that the Council
of Soldiers and Sailors Delegates use

clusively through the Provisional Gov
eminent as the sole governmental
power to which the country and the
army have taken the oath of fidelity;
that it forthwith put an end to all dis
sensions between workmen and en-
ployers, in view of the fact that dis
organization Of industry threatens the
army with calamity. and that IT post
pone operation Of the eight-hour day
By directing the workmen to labor as
many hours daily as is humanity pos
sible. The appeal to the army says:
I'VE urge you to employ all your
strength in the work preparatory TO the
battles. The soldiers should establish a
more vigorous discipline on the basis OF
the new order Of democracy, remember
ing that only an army sustained by dis
c,pline is a danger TO the enemy and
not mere crowd Of armed men. Strict
obedience to the Provisional Govern

No Official Statement
Of Argentine Neutrality

Buenos Ayres. April 1.-THE 7Cv-
eminent will make no official pro
nouncement of Argentina's neutrality
in the war between the United StGtes
and Germany. as il considers its note
of Yesterday sufficient. This note en-
bodied a declaration that Argentina
supported the position Of the United
States with reference to Germany.
President Irigoyen had two hours
conference with the Minister of Var
to-day. It is reported that the class
Of 1895 is to be called.
T.e Union" a Germanophile organ,
attacks the note of the Argentine gov
ornment, contending that it will bring
about war between Argentina and Ger
many. with disastrous consequences for
Argentina.
The "Deutsche Zeitung" recognizes
the gravity of the position. and asks II
Argentina ia prepared TO add TO the
number Of Germany's enemies.
The newspaper LA Rszon" publishes
assurances that the military depart
mcnts are working actively to prepare
for an approaching mobilization OF
100000 men and reserves and another
100000 reserves later. 1t is stated,
however. in official circles that these re-
ports are completely unfounded.
According TO certain political circles
the military measures are not aimed At
any international question, but at the
dangers of internal political agitation.
Carlos Becu, former Minister of For
eign Affairs, discussing the situation OF
Argentina with respect TO the war, SAID:
"Our absolute neutrality would be
dangerous and difficult. We owe It 10
ourselves to prepare for the possible
eventuality Of war
The press as a rule approves the
decision of the government in support
ing the action Of the United States
toward Germany, although remaining
neutral. Many Of the newspapers say
that Cuba has set good example.
The Mexican Minister made vain eff
forts Yesterday 20 obtain an inter
view with the Argentine Foreign Min
iSter.
Preparations arc being made by
prominent citizens for great popu-
lar demonstration IN favor Of the
United States.
The "Nacion" expresses the hope
that the governments attitude will
dspel the unfsvorable impression
caused by the previous note TO Pres
ident wilson at the time OF the Ger
man declaration of unrestricted war
fare. This newspaper says public
opinion in this country is completely
in accord with the United States. II

Fear Germany
Is Not Worrying

Some members of Congress are
worrying because, although we are at
war, our enemy, Germany, does not
seem to know it. That feeling. which
was expressed in several quarters to-
day. tells a big story in small space
Before war was declared, in the days
when President Wilson was making up
his mind, when the apparent changes
in Washington policy we're almost
Kaleidoscope. it was reiterated time
md again that the United States, even
with war declared. could do little save
extend financial aid TO the Allies and
vigorously begin preparations which
take a year and more
Now that war is here the feeling is
one Of surprise that the nation Is s.
helpless. The one thing that. as it was
foretold we could do. we are on the
point Of doing extending financial aid
IN the Allies. The tremendous magni-
tude Of that operation is Just beginning
n sink into the minds Of the average
Congressman.
The Ways and Means Committee Of
the House to-day unanimously reported

$4,000, 100000 OF bonds and s2,0OO,0O0,-

SOME HINTS TO HOSTESSES
Novel Ideas In Place Cards Will Fur
nish Pleasant Surprises to
Luncheon Guests.

Every one likes to be surprised, If
the surprise is a pleasant one. Guests
especially are pleased with novel, un-
expected things.
Although there is nothing else in
such good taste in the way Of a place
card as a plain white one with the
name of the guest written upon it,
hostesses often wish for something
new.
A luncheon surprise which will
cause much pleasure may be devised
by any clever hostess with a little in
genuity.
This is one novel way:s
Before giving a luncheon, borrow Sc
cretly from the families of the guests
pictures.
Announce as the guests enter the
dining room:
although there are no place cards,
I am sure that each n will find her
place without difficulty"
In the endeavor to do so much mer-
riment Is caused.
Pretty souvenirs, as well as place
cards, may be gotten up in the follow
ing way, but must be planned for some
time ahead:
With a kodak snap at different
times pictures Of your friends. You
might ask them TO arrange their hair
In novel ways.
Tint them delicately and mount on
cards like miniatures.
No names would be necessary, for
each guest would recognize her own
face beside her place at table.

Of age on crushed grains and after a
few weeks may receive whole grain.
At weaving time every effort should
be made to get them through without
loss Of their calf fat. The grain ra-
ton should be increased so that the
loss of their milk will not be felt.
They should also be weaned gradu-
ally, the entire process taking from
ten to fifteen days. Fall-born calves
should not be weaned until after the
cows and calves are on grass, and
spring-born calves should be weaned,
IL possible, early enough in the fall
to allow them some time IN grass.
After weaving time the feeding and
management of the calf depends
largely upon the time of the year II
Is born and the age at which 1t Is to
be sold. Suggestive calendars for the
management and feeding of both
spring-born and fall-born calves are
contained in Farmers Bulletin 81.
The rations provided for the calves
In these calendars consist of corn, cot
tonseed meal, corn silage, clover hay,
and oat straw, but other substances
may be substituted for them. Barley,
milo, kafir, and similar grains, for in
stance, may be used in place of corn,
though in slightly larger quantities
Llnseed oil meal, too, is a satisfactory
substitute for c%ottonseed meal. II

should consist chiefly Of a high-grade
leguminous hay. When available, oa'
straw should be kept before the
calves ut all times, not because Of Its
nutritive value, but because of Its

UNDERBODIEs VARY IN TYPE
That for Use With Finer Blouse Not
Best to Wear Under the Waist
That Is Washable.

The underbodice worn with n blouse
of georgette crepe or chiffon is not at
all the same type that is worn under
n linen or cotton affair.
Under the finer blouses the glori-
fed corset cover is made of %pussy-wil-
low, or some other soft silk, of net or
of silk wolfe. Under the blouse that is
washable n cotton underbodice. but
n that is always dainty, Is more cor
rect.
A novel idea to wear under rather
elaborate blouses is Ia use n wide piece
of ribbon. large enough to 90 around
The body like a girdle. This Is held
on over the shoulders by the regula-
ton ribbon straps. The wide ribbon
Is fitted into the waist by taking up
little seams all around, and these
seams are hemstitched by machine.
This little underbodice buttons in the
back.
Another bodice is made like the old
fashioned corset covers our grand
mothers wore, with round necks, wide
armholes and ininitesimal extension
sleeves. 1t is gathered into the waist
by two strings run through invisible
folds and closes In the back. These
corset overs are pretty In batIste for
wear under washable blouses. In some
models the back is cut in surplice

In n belt that ties with ribbons in front.

APPLY BUSINESS PRINCIPLES TO FARMING

Farmers should apply business prin-
ciplcs TO farming, according to Theo-
dore MacklIn, in charge of agricultural
economies in the Kansas agricultural
experiment station.
''The farmer Of today lives on the
profit which he can make, more than
he does on the few things which he
produces and consumes without first
selling" said Mr.. Macklin. "His ideal
is profit above everything else.
"Many complex forces affect the size
of the farmers profits. Market condi'
tions and prices and the farmers In

given consideration. The farmers
profit consists of the difference which
may exist between the market price

GIRLS LIKE OLD-TIME CAPES

PLANS TO CONTROL
BEAN ANTHRACNOSE
Seed Selection Is Most Important
Spraying With Bordeaux
Mixture Favored.

CBy OTTO A. REINKING. Colorado Agri-
cultural College, Fort Collins. Colo)
Bean anthracnose, a fungus disease
common at certain portions of the sea-
son upon the IA and green
beans, causes spotting of the pods and
growing parts. The disease first APP
pears rs u small purplish dlscolora-
ton which later develops into a la~er
spot with a darkened sunken center
bcrdered by a light-brown ring. Spots
can run together, forming irregular
sunken areas. During certain stages.
a pink mass of spores Is formed in
the center of each spot. The fungus
penetrates through the pod into the
bean seeds, the latter often becoming
discolored or spotted.
Various control methods can be
used. Seed selection Is the most impor-
tant. Seeds should only be used from
healthy pods, preferably grown on
| fields where little disease Is present.
1t is practically impossible to select
clean seed, except by taking those
from healthy pods.
Spraying with bordeaux mixture,
$3.50 formula, Is advised when the
disease appears early, and If practi-
cable. Burning of infected material,
and rotation Of crops is important.
