the Turks, fell under the power of Austria, all except Serbia and Montenegro, and it was the desire of Austria for Serbia, which stood on the high road of Eastern expan- sion, that precipitated the European War.
 The importance of the Jugo-Slavs lies chiefly in the fact that they are, or were before the war, larger racial unit than either German, Austrians, Hungarians, Austrian Poles or Czecho-Slovaks Their political understanding with Poles and Czecho-Slovaks is fraught with great po- tentialities, since those three races, with out counting the Jugo-Slavs of Serbia, form about two-thirds of the Austro-Hungarian population IA
 The significance of the understanding with Italy lies in the fact that the i'll feeling between Italy and the Jugo-Slavs at the be- ginning of the war was acute. Italy claimed and by secret treaty was promised, not only Austrian territory occupied by Italians, but also territory occupied by Jugo-Slavs.
 Italy has now moderated her attitude with something of the Mazzini vision.

WHAT ARE JUGO.SLAVS?
cFrom tba London Daily Maill

The word Jugo-Slav is the Serbian for South Slav, and before the war the South Slavs numbered about twelve million peo- ple, occupying the independent states of Serbia and Montenegro and the following provinces of Austria-FIungary: Bosnia and Herzegovina, annexed as recently as 1908; Dalmatie, which became Austria after the Napolcnic wars; Croatia.and Slovania; the territories Of the Slovenes; the Banat of Temesvar, Batchka and Baranya, in South Hungary. These provinces, for political reasons chiefly, were under variety of ad- ministrations.

 It would be no surprise if the Ger mans extended their evacuation to the region south of the Aisne which they hold in the direction of Rheims It is considered possible that had a push been made this part too would have been included in the gains of the last few days, but it is regarded as inevi- table that the Germans will find that the newly made salient is untenable.

For the first time in ten years worlds baseball series has failed to dominate all other matters in the minds of the fans The war stands alone and without rival, even with the first big game of the series al- ready played. Probably not l , per cent of the fans all over the country feel the old time thrill of previous championship strug- gles. One reason Is the tendency of large number of major league ball players to shirk their duty. Scores of them dodged into the shipyards and intuition plants to avoid active service Again, the class of the big league clubs has been reduced to minor league calibre. Not a team but that has been shot to pieces during the season, both Chicago in the national and Boston in the American, the contenders, losing star players But the other clubs were so hard hit that these teams won in spite of gaps in their ranks that would in an ordi- nary year have put them out of the running entirely. But baseball is not dead. After the war 1t will come into its own again and reign forever in most American hearts.

It might be well this payday to look ahead little to the future and save enough to face the cash system soon to come. Econ omy in these days of highwages and high prices and unusual conditions brought
 about by the war Is the practical thing to practice And there Is no doubt that the cash system tends more to economy in buy ing than is the case where one has credit. the new plan, whatever one may think of 1t, or argue, for or against, will certainly en- able the workmen to go and buy goods where they can get them cheapest. It will make them more independent. It will
 check it to them to establish their own credit by their habits of thrift and meeting their obligations What may now seem hardship to some will in the end be seen to be distinct benefit There is plenty of steady work for all in the district and at higher wages than have ever been known. There could not be better time to inaugu- rate this new system in the camp. There Is only one time to save, and that Is RIGHT NOW! Putting 1t off till tomorrow will never save a nickel against need. Only one more payday after this one, remember, and then every one working for the companies draws full paycheck and buys when and where and what he or she sees fit. Better think about it today and plan for tomorrow.

Since that second battle of the Marne the German crown prince has changed his tune. He no longer prates of glorious victory and a fatherland that shall dominate the world. In his last interview he never rattled his saber or his spurs once, but only sighed and plaintively declared that Germany was fighting for draw and not for conquests. He said the Americans did not know what they were fighting for Maybe not But they treated the crown prince pretty rough on the Marne and they seem to have altered his views of what he was fighting for more than a little.

lunches and omens.

With a great many people, the
bunch needs no excuse. 1t has proved
itself, notes an exchange. Such per-
sons are not necessarily superstitious,
although the following of lunches and
belief in omens usually go together.
Once a person has been saved from a
mistake or bodily harm by changing
plans in obedience to bunch he can
not be prevented from expecting such
warning ever after. He may walk I'M
der a ladder or look at the moon over
which shoulder it is that's wrong
without thinking Of the consequences,
but If he has bunch to cross the
street suddenly you can bet he will do
so and nothing can stop him. The
mere fact that no chimney topples to
the ground in the spot he would have
passed had he not crossed does not
undermine his faith. He knows there
was some good reason.

PARIS NOT ALL OF FRANCE
Bordeaux Is Not at All Like the Capt.
tai City but Has Quality and
Culture of Its Own.

"Paris is France" the American
traveller is fond of remarking, but
Paris is far from being all of France.
There are numerous Independent mind
ed French cities, which persist in main
tanning not only q commerce but also
q quality and q culture of their own.
There is nothing at all Partisan about
Bordeaux. The southern city is lit
tie world in itself.
The native of Bordeaux does not
WELD reverently to the judgment OF
Paris in matters political and artistic,
as many of the French provincials do,
writes traveller. He is rather reti"
cent for a native Of the south OF
France. but after time 1T may dawn
on you that he actually considers Bor-
deaux superior to Paris in most ways.
Paris is all right for a vacation, he
will say, but not for place to live.
Bordeaux is quietly and solidly self
satisfied, prosperous, kindly, conserva-
tive and mild.
1t is rich city, with an immense
foreign trade in times of peace. 1t has
one of the greatest harbOrs Of France,
where 1900 ships may lie at anchor. 1t
is a stately city, with great buildings
and noble residences; even it's poorer
houses are built in an individual style
differing from that Of the rest Of
France. 1t has southern speech that
practically gives it dialect of it's own.
It is in closer touch with England with
the United States and with South
America than any other French city.
It's cooking amounts to native art.
It Is the center of one of the most
famous wine growing regions in the
world. Finally, its climate is a most
disagreeable thing to live with.
His attitude toward the climate is
the shibboleth by which the native Of
Bordeaux may be recognized. Strang-
ers may admire the architecture, the
boulevards, the wine, the cookery and
the harbor. But If man has a good
word for the climate Of Bordeax it is
a sign he was born and bred there and
got to like it before he was old enough
to know better.

VENTILATION NEEDED
FOR VIGOR OF STOCK
Improvement in Northwest Has
Resulted in Construction OF )
Good Barns for Animals.

The improvement of live stock In the
Northwest has resulted in the construc-
ton of good barns and the careful
housing of stock during cold weather,
says A. d. Wilson, director Of the ex-
tension division of the Minnesota Col
lege of Agriculture. 1t has been dem
nitely shown that growing cattle and
mich cows will not make profitable
returns unless kept fairly comfortable
during the winter. In this climate this
can be done only in good warm barns.
A modern barn must also be provided
with light and good ventilation. The
close housing of live stock has result
ed in many cases in an increase OF tu-
berculosis. Many excellent herds have
been destroyed by this disease. One
of the best safeguards against tuber-
culosis is good ventilation of barns.
The ventilating of barns is not ex-
pensive or difficult, A very little study
of the principles involved will show

Weight always should be considered
in connection with age in market sheep
and with sex in breeding animals.
Sheep one year old and under are con-
sidered lambs on the market. Lambs
are desirable as butcher stock, because
they are in greatest demand by the
consumer and are most profitable to
the producer if he is raising sheep only
for mutton production. Weight is in
fluenced by breed and degree Of fat
ness as we'll as by age. Although plenty
of weight is desired, there is objection
to great weight because it is likely to
be associated with coarseness and a
low dressing percentage and give cuts
too large to suit the demands of the
retail trade. Lambs weighing from
70 to 80 pounds are in greatest de-
mand. Mature wethers should weigh
over 95 pounds.
Form.
The point of view of the butcher
should be kept in mind in considering
the form of a mutton steak. AS the
most valuable cuts of meat are on the
hind quarters and loin, the butcher re-
quires q heavy leg of mutton and
broad back with a deep, full loin. In
order to secure this development in the
hind quarters there must be a corre-
spending development in other parts
of the body. The general form, then,
should be smooth and even, large
frame without heavy bones giving
a plump appearance. Low-set, broad
forms generally have special devel-
opment of loin and leg and dress out
with a relatively small percentage of
waste, hence are most desired by the
butchers. A full, smooth outline is an
indication Of flesh which is thick and
even. Long legs, dropping rump, hat
ribs and narrow chest with open Shout
ders, giving a general angular and
