creasing the size of the bird. For ordi-
nary purposes and to meet the needs
of the average poultry keeper. the
larger breeds of fowls make good ca
pons without crossing with other
breeds.
Before being killed, the birds should
be given only water for about thirty-six
or forty-eight hours. The purpose Of
fasting the birds before killing is to
allow the digestive tract to become
empty.
Capons should be killed by cutting
the veins through the mouth just back
through the cleft in the roof Of the
mouth to the brain. 1t is customary to
dry pick them. The feathers are usually
left on the neck about three inches
back from the head, on the legs about
two inches above the knee joints, on
the two outer joints of the wings. on
the tail, and on the back around the
base of the tail.
In packing for market a good plan 10
to use boxes holding a dozen birds. Tho
boxes are lined with waterproof paper.
The six birds on the bottom layer are
placed with the breasts down and the.
heads and feet w. \ layer of water
proof paper should be laid over the first
lot of birds before the others are placed
in position. The capons of the second
layer are placed with breasts up and
heads and feet down.
By packing in this way the shipment
shows TO the best advantage no matter
from which side the box is opene i.
Since an attractive appearance adds to
the marketability of poultry products.
capons always demand the highest
prices when well fed. well dressed and
well prepared for market.

FRENCH TO AID TOURING
AMERICANS AFTER WAR
Government Has Named a Council
and National Office to Develop
Sightseeing and Travel.

PARIS. June Z. by mail.-Americans
who come to France after the war to
visit battlefields and see the country
will probably find more comfortable
lodgings and better touring facilities
than have been afforded heretofore.
The government has finally taken no
tice of the general demand for an
organized effort in that direction.
A decree appearing in the Journal
Official today creates a national office
Of touring" attached to the minister of
public works, the objects Of which are
to centralize and put at the DISPOSE
ton of the public information of all
kinds concerning touring. to study and
seek out all appropriate means for de-
veloping touring in France and to take
measures tending to improve means of
transportation, circulation throughout
France and the entertainment of
tourists.
The directors of highways and navi-
CATION, Of railways. of communal and
departmental administration of forests,
of architecture and technical affairs
are members of the commission
There is also instituted a superior
national council of touring. comprising
number of members of parliament
and officials of departments interested
in the question. 1t will cooperate
with the national Office of touring.

RUMGR OF GERMAN ACTIVITY.
State Department Hears of Propa-
ganda in Ports Of South America.

Evidence that German propaganda
still goes on in certain parts of South
America is still being received by the
Department of State. Information re-
ceived at the department portrays the
activity of a German consul in a GER
tain Caribbean port. There are several
newspapers in this town and two of
them are subsidized by the Germans,
each for 500 per month. Both are very
pro-Germau and one, particularly,
viciously anti-American. Articles are
often published concerning the "rape
of Panama" by the colossus of the
north" and there are occasionally
satirical descriptions of American life
and customs. The German consul at
this place is also alleged to have
financed a theatrical piece called The
American Intervention" The act shows
an American cringing before a Mexican
and the dialogue was chiefly composed
of ribald jokes about the United States.
The effect on the natives of the coun-
try of all this propaganda is not be-
lieved to be important. The richer
classes are in close touch with the
United States, with which the country
in question carries on large trade,
while the poorer classes are too ig-
norant to understand the illusions such
as contained in the theatrical piece
mentioned.

JAPAN "GUIDING" CHINA,
BUT NOT INTERFERING
Premier Terauchi Thus Declares
Policy in a Speech to
the Diet.

TOXIC. June so.-In debate in the
diet Thursday Yukio Czaki. leader Of
the constitutional party, charged that
the government. while declaring its
policy in China was one Of non-interfer-
ference. was in practice supporting the
Chinese northerners, or the party of
militarism. At all events, he declared.
the Chinese southerners so believed. II
thu belief was unfounded. he insisted.
JaDan should take steps to remove the
misconception held by the southerners,
which also was held abroad.
In replying, Premier Terauchi declared
that Japan was steadily adhering to her
decision for non-interference and was
merely encouraging and guiding China.
He did not believe. he said. that China s
entrance into the war would have an
immediate and direct beneficial effect
upon Japan and her allies. but he thought
it would prove beneficial in the future.
Lieut.. Gen. Cshima, the minister of
war, announced that he possibly would
ask authority to increase the number
of army divisions beyond the present
twenty-five.
Vice Admiral Kato. the minister of
marine. announced it had been decided
to arm future battleships with twelve
14-inch or eight 16-inch guns.

her up and set her on tiny pedestal

Over in Paris the Chinese idea is ex-
pressed in the new gowns in lines as
well as in embroidery and coloring. The
attempt is made to swing down gown
freely away from the body in excellent
folds, and then gather it in somewhere
near the normal waist line by girdle.
There is dominant Chinese note in
the house gowns. One is made of jade
