many faces acute internal dis
turbances. which are undermin-
ing her powers of resistance al
most as rapidly as are the assaults
Of the Allied forces upon her
armies. Her economic situation
is acute. The backbone of re-
sistance so far as the populace is
concerned seems to be breaking
If not already broken. This is
some Of the important information
which was given out yesterday
afternoon by the American Min
lister to Switzerland in a state
mcnt which he issued.
SITUATION ACUTE
Pleasant Alexander Stovall,
United States ambassador to
Switzerland has issued a state
ment which indicates that the end
is swiftly approaching for Ger
many. The economic situation
grows more and more acute and
has now reached the worst stage
ofany time since the war began.
This is of itself serious but it is
aggravated by other conditions
which are augrnenting it and still.
further threatening the Kaiser's
government from within. 7
RESISTANCE BROKEN -.
The backbone of resistance, so
far as the people of Germany are
concerned has been broken and
it was President Wilson's reply
to the peace note of the Pope that
brought this about. His state .
ment that the United States is not.
waging war gainst the people
of Germany but against their per-
nicious system of government
which has grown intolerable to
the world, has borne large fruit.
The common people have taken
the words to heart and are pom
dering over them. They believe
them and the feeling against the
Pan-German element is growing
in force.
The revulsion of feeling against
the war is spreading. Peace is
demanded. The common people
are ready to make concessions
now and with the spread of peace
desire they will be ready to make
great sacrifices.

KEEP TOOLS UNDER SHELTER
Practice OF Leaving Harvesting Ma
ehinery In Open Results In consld.
cradle Damage.

Usually there are many who leave
their harvesting machinery out In the
weather for some time after all har-
vesting is over. Such practice results
In considerable damage to the binders
and other harvesting machinery. All
farm implements have advanced In
price, and carelessness in taking care
of them will cause considerable loss.
At no time has the use Of labor-saving
machinery been in greater demand ON
the farms, and every farmer who has
such machinery should by all means
take the very best care Of 1t. Just as
soon as one has finished using an I'M
plement it should be put under shelter
and where it will be kept in good con-
dition for the next crop. Binders are
easily broken If left in exposed places,
where wagons and other farm equip
ment are jammed into the same cor
ners. Quite often mowers, binders,
wagons, ETC., are all found In one tan
gled mass in one corner Of the shed,
along with the drills and threshing
machines. Such carelessness can only
result in some Of the machinery being
damaged. BY caring for such machin-
cry properly the lifetime Of the nipple
ments can be doubled.

RED CROSS CHRISTMAS
SEALS ARE ON SALE

The campaign for the sale of these
seals began in BlackfoOt last week
when they were placed in all the
drug stores and in Hayes Gift Shop.
They can be bought in any amount
from one cent up and it is hoped
that Blackfoot will buy the number
apportioned to it and thus do its
share in tuberculosis relief and pre-
vention work.
More than 100000 French soldiers
have been sent back from the firing
line because they were too i'll with
tuberculosis to be longer able to
fight. Our Idaho men too may fall
victims to this disease thru the hard
ship of life in the trenches. These
men are offering their lives for every
man, woman and child in this COM
munity and we should do all we can
to nurse them back to health and
happiness.
These seals can be used by banks
on their statements; by stores on
their bills and by Christmas givers
on their packages and letters. Do
your part IL only in small way.
A Red Cross committee with Mrs.
w. F. Pike and Miss Agnes Hart has
the work in charge and will be glad
to deliver seals to anyone wishing
them or they may be gotten at the
above mentioned stores.

HELP sow SAVE PIGS
narrowing Pen Should Be
Equipped With Wooden Rails.
Prevents Mother From CroWdlnu lit
tie Fellows to Death-Provide
Good Shelter From Cold and
Rain-Have Solid Floor.

We are asked by the president to
increase the production Of our farms.
In the face of the fact that the plea
came almost too late for some farmers
to radically change their plans, the
acreage for cultivated crops has been
wonderfully increased. The five and
ten-acre corners of stump. or hillside,
land which had previously been con-
sidcred not worth the trouble have
been broke for cultivation.
A few farmers who have every avail
able acre under cultivation must con-
tent themselves in trying to raise more
to the acre and in conserving all they
can.
In this connection an effort to save
the little pigs at narrowing time Is I'M
doubtedly profitable and patriotic
method conserving the food supply.
Contrary to some Of the older farm
ers' ideas, do not let the brood sow,
which Is to farrow, make her bed
around an old straw or hay stack. Pro-
vide a good shelter, well protected
from cold and rain, and, preferably,
having solid floor. --,-
Do not let the sow root a deep hole
for bed. She can be given a gen.
erous amount Of straw for bedding at
first, Just to satisfy her animal In

Rails Save Little Pigs.

stinct. Later when she starts to far
row it Is wise to remove much OF
the bedding.
The narrowing pen should be
equipped with rails, as shown in the
drawing. These rails may be made Of
2 by A pieces nailed SO that they are
parallel with the floor, with six inches
clearance underneath and with four
inches or more between the rail and
the wall.
The purpose of this rail as well as
the removal Of superfuous bedding
is to prevent the sow from crowding
the little pigs to death. The rail per-
mlts the little fellows to crawl behind
and get out.
Personally find that "watchful
waiting" is the best policy with far
rowing brood sows. They usually start
to farrow few hours after they
commence to make their bed. Then
an hour or so spent in caring for the
animals frequently saves several OF
the offspring. After two or three pigs
ere narrowed the mother usually gets
up. remakes her bed and turns over
At this time she pays little attention
to the pigs that have come and 1t is
best to watch them. After the SOW Is
through narrowing there is little dan
ger of her lying on the pigs.

BEST GROWTH OF ASPARAGUS
Plant Favors Soil Rich In Vegetable
Matter-Get Field Ready Dur
Ing Fall Season.

Asparagus makes the best growth In
soils Astounding In vegetable matter.
The field should be got ready In the
fall.
This means that manure should be
used with the greatest freedom, and
If clover sods are available, they
should help materially in the starting
of the plantation.
Land of any kind to be planted with
this crop should be heavily manured
and plowed in the fall, repeating the
operation and adding more manure the
following spring.
The blowing should be as deep az
possible, although care should be ex-
ercised to avoid turning up too much
of the sub-soil.
Disk and cutaway harrows may be
used to good advantage in preparing
the soil. Effort should be made to get
a fine bed to the full depth Of the
pillow furrow, with all vegetable mat.

GOOD SYSTEM IS DESIRABLE
Few Farmers Make Plans to Dispose
Of Improbable Fowls-cull Out
Undesirables.

Very few farmers practice a sys-
tematic plan of disposing Of their
fowls after they have ceased to be
productive, although it is well known
that fowls of the heavier breeds,
such as the Plymouth Rocks, cease
to produce a profitable number OF
eggs at the end Of their second laying
year. This holds true of the lighter
breeds, such as the Leghorns, at the
end of their third laying year. Conse-
quently, If efforts were made to dis
pose Of all females when their best
laying days were over, large guam
tity of poultry meat would be placed
on the market. All poorly developed
chickens should likewise be culled out
and used as meat. This way of dis
posing of improbable fowls would
allow the farmer to feed his grain to
younger and more productive fowls.

CORRECT WAY TO MILK COWS
Scrape Droppings Into Gutter and
Work Teats and Udders Clean
Keep Hands Smooth.

Before commencing to milk the
droppings of the cows should be
scraped into the gutter and the teats
and udders worked clean and wiped
dry. Always milk with clean hands,
and If your hands are hard and rough
keep a cup Of goose grease or hard
and sweet oil at the stable, and once
a day, or before milking, rub little
on the inside Of your hands; just
enough to make them feel smooth.
Some of the grease should be rubbed
on the teats If they are rough or cut
with briars. An expert will milk q
COW giving two gallons Of milk in
five minutes. A steady, even motion,
filling the teat with milk at every
pressure of the hands, is the most
rapid way of milking and the most
agreeable to the cow.
