Lost Chilean Ship
Safe at Wrong Port

A Chilean cruiser, Chilean sub
marine and vessels Of the United States
navy, which have been hunting for days
in Long Island Sound for the Chilean
transport Angomas, vessel Of between
1000 and 5000 tons that sailed from
New York on last Monday for New Lon
don, have called off the search.
Fears had been entertained that the
Angomas had been disabled and driven
out to sea in last weeks hurricane.
Besides her crew Of 200 and heavy
cargo of railroad rolling stock for
Chile, She had on board several Chilean
officials.
NEW LONDON, Conn, March 3.-On
arrivng here to-day the commander Of
the Angomas was questioned with Sc
verify by Admiral Domez on the
Chilean cruiser Chacabuco concerning
the possibility of losing a 4,O00-ton yes,
sci for four days off Bath Beach. The
captain is said to have explained that
he had sent message which was not
received and supposed that Quarantine
officials knew his location anyway.

Ebert Hubbard's Work Goes On.

A reminder of Ebert Hubbard, vic
tim of the Lusitania, is contained IN
this paragraph in a New York paper:
"At East Aurora the R~oycrofters con-
tinue to flourish. Their annual con-
vention is as usual. But no invitation
is necessary to attend 1t. Anyone who
goes there is welcomed and the speak
ers include you If you want to speak.
That's the Roycroft idea. The notables
are scheduled, but in the grove the
open-air theater is ar open forum.
Any subject goes. We hear that the
work phase of the Roycrofters is the
big thing now. Which as we recall it
vas Hubbard's hope. A place where
everything that was made was first
useful and then beautiful. He used
to say, If it's useful it is beautiful,
but many useful things can be made
more beautiful. That's what we want
to do"

CITY MANAGERS MAKE GOOD
Newspaper Points Out Many Instances
Where New System Has Proved
Of Great Value.

st. Augustine, Fla, the oldest city
In the United States, is now operating
under n of the most modern of char
tiers. It's a city manager charter that
forbids candidates for commissioner,
personally, to solicit votes. Once elect
ed, a commissioner Is forbidden to
dictate any appointment by the city
manager. Already the new plan has
meant a considerable saving of public
money in st. Augustine.
In Niagara Falls, where, owing to
failure of the New York legislature to
pass adequate legislation, the city
manager administration is still ham,
pered by partisan elections, the tax
levy has been reduced to OF cents per
$1,000 valuation.
In Sherman, Tex. the city mana
ger installed a complaint system, by
which each complaint is recorded, re-
ferred to the department concerned
and followed up If necessary until
cared for. The number of complaints
in six months dropped 80 per cent
Public works improvement bonds
amounting to $150,000 were voted by
the people.
So obvious a step toward efficient
government as depositing city funds
in a responsible bank, willing to pay
interest on daily averages, will save
San Jose, Cal, $4,000 a year under
the city manager plan.-Omaha News.

GET AFTER NEGLECTED. LAND
Every Citizen Should Recognize a
Duty in Seeing That 1t Is
Kept Cleaned Up.

Look not only to your own back
yard, but take a proprietary interest
in any vacant yards OF neglected
patches of land that are in your neigh
borhood. You really ought to have
had them cleaned up last autumn, but
IL you didn't then, in the cause of food
conservation and with the hope of an
increased crop from the home gardens
this summer, have these patches
cleared up.
The department of agriculture sent
a plea to the people of the land to
clean up all plots that were used as
war gardens last year in order that the
insects that had been harbored in a
dormant state In the underbIush and
rubbish might be exterminated and not
permitted to multiply and increase.
Ideally, entomologists tell us, as o
as the crop has been harvested, the
remnants should be promptly cleared
away and burned with the insects
which they harbor.
Many persons apparently believe
that the action of winter SHOWS and
winds would be sufficient to destroy
insect life, but such is not the case.

FARM
ANIMALS
FORAGE CROP is IMPORTANT
Essential for Successful and Econom-
icaI Production of Pork-crops
for Many Sections.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
The successful and economical pro-
duction of pork depends in a large
measure upon good permanent pas
lures supplemented by other forage
crops. There should be on an average
one acre of permanent pasture for each
brood SOW kept. Green forage is lit
tie more than a maintenance ration,
and If rapid gains r desired hogs
should have a liberal allowance of
grain. Growing forage crops and graz
ing them off is a good method of i'm
proving soils lacking in organic mat
ter.
Kinds of crops: (a) For the cotton
belt Bermuda, bur clover, white clover
and Lespedeza make good permanent
pastures. These should be supple
mented by small grains and rap for
winter, crimson clover and vetch for
spring, cowpeas and sorghum for sum-
mer, corn with soy beans, velvet beans
or peanuts for fall. (b) For the GEN.
trail and middle Atlantic states, includ.
ing the bluegrass region, blue grass
should be used largely for permanent
pasture. 1t should be supplemented
by rye for winter, rape for spring, red
clover for spring and summer, corn
with soy beans and rape for fall. (c)
For the Northern and Eastern states
blue grass or redtop provides perma-
lent pasture. Supplementary grazing
should be furnished by oats and peas
for spring, rape and red clover for
summer, and early field corn for fall.
(d) for the West grazing is furnished
by alfalfa and corn. Corn should be
"hogged down."

SHIPPING SWINE IN SUMMER
Hot Weather Precautions to Prevent
Loss of Important Part Of Ma
toms Meat Supply.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of A~griculture.)
Every hog that is killed In transit
due to o~vercrowding or ~mishandling
means a loss, at present prices, of prob
ably more than $50 to the shipper as
well as a waste of meat needed by the
nation. Mortality in transit or after
arrival at the central market can be
lessened greatly in hot weather by the
practice of the following simple pre-
cautions on the part of shippers and
dealers:
1. When hogs are very hot, during
or after a drive, eve pour cold water
over their backs.
2. Before loading, clean out each car
and bed it with sand which, during dry,
hot weather should be wetted down
thoroughly. Hogs in transit during the
night only are not so likely to be lost
from o~verheating as are the animals
shipped in the daytime. With day ship
ments in hot weather it is highly adj
visable to suspend burlap sacks of ice
from the ceiling in various parts of the
, 1918-08-15

car in order to reduce the temperature
and, incidentally, to sprinkle the an
imals with cool water. The ice some
times is placed in sacks on the floor,
but the animals are likely to pile and
crowd around the cakes so that only
those close to the ice are benefited.
The ice should be sufficient to last to
the destination.
3. Do not overload. Crowdlng hogs
in a car during warm weather is u
prolific source of mortality.
4. The feeding of corn, because of
its heating effect, before and during
shipment in hot weather, should be re-
duced to a minimum. Oats are prefer
able where n grain feed is necessary.
The maximum maintenance require
ment of hogs in transit for "a hours is
one pound of grain n hundredweight
or approximately three bushels of
corn to a car. In the past thousands
of bushels of corr have been wasted
In livestock cars.

Comtesse de Bryas is a Frenchwoman, who came
to America last April to represent the American
committee for devastated France. and is now en-
gagged in an extensive tour of the United States,
speaking about her experiences in the war-ridden

mother was a Philadelphia who went to Europe
when a small child and was brought up there.
Her Observation-Disclosures George Clymer and Thomas
Willing, and her granduncle, George Read, were all
