London, June 6, (Thursday).-Ge

attempts against a convoy which in

and American Red Cross workers ac-
cording to the Rev. Father Joseph
Wareing of Baltimore. one of the Red

To the Associated Press, Rev. Father
Wareing, who had a trying experience
following the torpedoing of the British
steamer Laconia in February, 1917.
said:
'Soon after we reached the danger

Definite Promises to Russ.
London, June S.-The entente allies
have a great opportunity for COM
bined diplomatic offensive with view
to explaining to Russia and the Aus
trian Slavs what an allied victory will
mean for them, in the opinion of the
Daily Express. The newspaper calls
upon the allies to translate vague
references of self determination into
concrete terms and to let their pre-
nouncenent appear above the sigma
ture of the United States as well as
the European allies.
The German jackboot is heavy and
the foot within it is ruthless and Wig
orous. The foot stamps and the boot
grinds, but men are sometimes made
of hard metal. The crushing may be
incomplete and may stimulate resent
ment sooner than subjection," the Ex-
press says. These reflections are sug-
gested by the present conditions in
Russia and Austria, it continues. THE
better the details of the Brest-Litoysk
treaty are understood, the more gen.
erai is Russia's discomfort and hos
tility"

How 10 Keep Farm Accounts.

Farm accounts are necessary as n
basis for planning business operations,
to determine costs of production. to Sc
cure the most advantageous loan, and
to make correct income tax report.
The recent income tax law has made
farm accounting necessary on most
farms. This requirement, however,
should be welcomed by the farmers.
since Il will give them closer insight
to their business. and point the way
toward improvements and greater
profits.
The University Of Missouri College
Of Agriculture has recently issued EX.
pertinent station Circular ~, which
gives details for keeping farm ao-
counts. II Is illustrated with sample
pages taken from an account book
kept by a farmer. These illustrations
are fully discussed so that the farmers
will be able TO keep their accounts by
referring 10 the circular. This circu.
lar will be mailed free Of charge to
those persons who request IL from the
University Of Missouri College Of Ag-
riculture. Columbia, Missouri.
According TO this circular, an cxpen-
sive farm account book is not neces-
-ary, and farmers are warned against
Inscriptions agents who will attcnnipt
to persuade them that they must have
an elaborate, expensive book. An ar-
count book, costing no more than 10.
~, nj the most, % cents, will answer
the requirements. Farmers who care
