There is tendency here that the
death threat will temporarily cow the
workers into submission.
There is belief too, that such vic
tory for the militarists will furnish
only a short respite.
If the coming German offensive is
effective and the slaughter heavy,
both of which are anticipated, anoth.

as almost certain.

upon by German leaders to convince
the people that it is necessary to fight

At the same time the statement IN
dicates that the allies have made SUI
preme preparations to nullify such an
attempt. Therefore it is believed that
if there is no revolution in Germany
now it is merely postponed.

central powers was still tightly drawn

How to Keep Tools.

Tools should be kept dry, for mois-
ture causes rust, which is very injuri-
Gus, especially to sharp-edged tools. In
climates where the atmosphere Is
moist keep tools in n wall cabinet or
tool chest. If the atmosphere Is dry
they may be hung on the wall about
the work bench or arranged on shelves.
1t should be the aim to have a place
for every tool, and then cultivate the
practice of returning it to its proper
place Immediately upon the compile
ton of the work in hand. A very good
plan for keeping the tools in their re-
spective places is first to draw an out
line of each tool in Its place upon the
wall and then paint this space black or
some color in contrast with the wall
itself, so that when any tool Is not in
its place its absence will be readily
apparent.
Many persons are in the habit of
leaving tools where they finish using
them. In the first place. tool can
not be kept in working condition II
allowed to remain exposed to the
weather, and in the second place the
time lost in locating the tool when 1t
is next required for use will be much
greater than that which would be re-
quired to return 1t to the proper place.

Clean Barns, Cleaner Milk.

Construction of the dairy barn may

in handling milk when keeping down
the bacterial content of the milk Is
considered, but the barn construction
may be such as to tighten the labor
necessary to keep the barn and Its
equipment in clean condition.
The stable should have n hard moor
which can be readily cleaned; for this
reason dirt floor is undesirable. A ce-
lncnt floor is easily cleaned and pre-
vents waste of the liquid manure 1t

CUTTING BACK OF BRANCHES
Prevents Trees From Growing Too
Tall. Condition Making It Hard
to Gather Fruit.

(From the United States Department of
Agriculture.)
Frequent cutting back Of the branch
es of the tree while 1t is young pre-
vents the long, bare branches which
are so characteristic Of old orchard
trees. 1t also prevents the tree from
growing too tall-a condition which
makes 1t difficult to gather the fruit or
to spray the tree. With the low-headed
trees less propping is necessary than
with trees having long framework
branches. The load of fruit is carried
nearer the trunk, and the main struc-
tural branches being larger In pro-
portion to their length are therefore
better able to carry any load of fruit
which the tree may develop.

srIohten Bank Barns.

Very few farm buildings con-
structed 15 or 20 years ago meet the
sanitary requirements of today. Bank
barns are generally dark and damp.
Light is often excluded from one or
more sides. thus making the stable
difficult to keep clean. Stables which
have easements open on one side for
the manure furnish breeding place
for flies. Barns which have many ex-
posed beams, braces and ledges on
which dust may lodge are undesirable.
In these old types of buildings little or
no attention was paid to proper venti-
lntion and distribution of the light.
Many of them, however, can at small
expense be remodeled to meet all san
itary requirements.
