Pdn- Germans Are Denounced

but did not take as seriously as the damage which they subsequently did proves that one ought to have done.
 "The effect of Pan-German out bursts upon foreign public opinion was not considered at the time but they alone can account for the flood of hate towards Germany which showed itself at the beginning of the war and which found the German public comparatively unprepared. We could not understand it and we asked ourselves how it was possible. Now we have found out. From the writing of Baumgarten and other publications we have seen that not the good German people but the Pan Germans earned bad name for Germans in the world We are not

THE GAME AND FISH LAW.

An outstanding feature of the pres ent term of circuit court is the num- Der of convictions for violation of the state game and fish law. Every case has ended in conviction, having been tried by a fair and impartial body of jurymen. Conservation of game and fish at this time is of vital importance and Game Warden Stedman says he has assurance from the court that persons who in future again violate the law will be given the limit of punishment. The wholesale slaughter of game and fish, and the smallest case of violation, should cease in order that the future supply of food that will result from this con- seryation can be had at a time when greatly needed There is agitation in this and adjoining counties for the passage of general gun law, which would require each person owning a gun to pay license fee and prohibit non-taxpayers from borrowing a gun and pot shooting quail and other game.

so foolish as to look upon the enemy as angels. The consciousness of the innocence felt in Germany at the be- ginning of the war, though under standable, was not justified, for now we see that agitation on the part of Pan-Germans which they carried even beyond our frontiers created false impression upon foreign public opinion, an impression that the Ger man people and their government were animated by plans for conquest and deeds of violence, and this opin- ion was encouraged by chauvinists in those countries abroad.
 German people do not yet know the extent of the damage done to them by the Pan-Germans, but the hour of reckoning for them Is com ing"

WOULD DEFER
 FARM WORKERS
Deferred Classification fer Men En- gagged in Farming Is Urged by
 Governor BrOugh.

Special to Independent-
 Little Rock, Feb. 16.AGovernor Brough has taken up with the Fed eral authorities the matter of secur- ing deferred classification for those men who are engaged in agricultural pursuits, both farm owners and ten ants.
 In the first draft he secured the authority from Washington for the Exemption Boards to grant furloughs extending from 30 to 90 days. In the new Questionnaire, furloughs are not
 rovided for, but deferred classifi- fications are.
 The governor has recently had called to his attention the fact that over 30 per cent of the rice producers have been classified in Class l A. Doubtless this percentage of the farm laborers classified in the First Class is maintained in other branches of agriculture.
 The District and Local Exemption boards are in sympathy with the granting of these industrial and agri- cultural claims, but no provision ex- ists in the new Questionnaire in the Selective Draft Service Law for de- ferred classifications. A meeting of the Agricultural Commissioners of number of the southern states will be- held in Mem phis Monday, and the governor has given to this meeting his unqualified approval, so far as it is destined to secure deferred classification for farm laborers.
 "Our farmers" said the governor, "constitute our second line of de- fense. A very large share of the production of food of this country, as we'll as the allies, will fall this year upon the south. The tremendous strides made in Arkansas and in the south are reflected in the fact that last year the total farm values of southern products exceeded $4,5000,- 0OO,OO0.

In instructing schoolchildren in knit
ting, they must begin with the simplest
things first and advanced to those that
are more difficult, as in anything else.
Some Of the schools started out with
the six-inch squares made Of colored
yarns on No. needles, and after that
they undertake mufflers, then wristlets.
The squares are used by the Red Cross
by joining them to make small quilts
or coverlets.
Yarn and knitting needles can be
purchased either from stores or Red
Cross chapters. The standardized
Red Cross needles are in three sizes,
and their numbers and sizes are as fol-
lows:
Knitting needles, No. 1851 900
inch in diameter.
Knitting needles, No. 2-175-1 600
inch in diameter.
Knitting needles. No. 3-2OO-1 900
inch in diameter.
The children use No. 3 needles. They
are first taught to least, on" and to
avoid making their first stitches too
tight. Beginning on the small squares
the children practice until they can
make the stitches even and firm. They
must be taught to pick up a dropped
stitch ""' e"'""t'm"s ravel out and re-

knit square several times. Both
boys and girls like tho work.
They are taught to splice the yarn
when 1t must be joined or to leave ends
two or three inches long to be darned
in. All knots and ridges are to be
avoided. When they have learned to
knit the squares they can take up the
mufflers. For these they must use the
regulation gray or khaki colored yarn
that is sold for army garments, and
one pair Of No. 8 needles. For a muf-
fer 21a hanks of yarn * pound) are
needed. Cast on so stitches Cor a few
more or less If necessary to make a
width of II inches. Knit in the same
way as for the squares, with the plain
or garter stitch until the muller is 6S
inches long.
Wristlets may be knitted on No. 2
needles, using one pair. They require
" hank Of yarn ~ pound). Cast on
4S stitches, knit and purl 2 for II
inches, and sew up, leaving 2 inches
open space for the thumb, inches be-
low the edge. The next garment to be
taken up in the course of training is
considerably more difficult than the
muller, but only requires two needles:
Direction for it will be given in an
other article.

Mothers love to make dainty finery
for their little girls ut any season Of
the year, but more especially now, at
the season when indoors Is more in
viting than outdoors. In the North
the long winter evenings must be filled
somehow and leisurely sewing on pref
ty white clothes Is as much pastime
as, work. Many mothers count on jan
uary and February as the time for get
ting the little ones sewing out of the
way, before the approach Of Easter
compels them to give time and attention
to the more important needs Of them
selves.
In January dry goods stores put On
their annual sales of white goods and
present their new-season models in
children's frocks - assortments are
complete and prices low, SO the mer-
chant plays into the hands of those
patrons who count on making up lin
gerie and childrens clothes Mt this
time. Styles tor little folks do not
change much; there is so little room
for Improvement in them. We all like
to see the same sheer white fabrics
trimmed with the same simple needle
work, or fine embroidery and lingerie
laccs that we have come to associate
always with babyhOOd.

Above dress-up frock for the small
lady of three or four years is pictured.
1t is made of fine batiste and narrow
val lace. This Is frock for state oc-
casions, like birthday party, in the
life of the little miss. 1t is, therefore,
INDUCED In more lace and embroidery
than any other of her belongings.
1t is cut with long body and a
short, full skirt, scalloped at the bot
tom. There is a straight piece of fine
swiss embroidery down the front set in
with lace insertion ut each side. Little
jacket fronts are set on at each side
with val edging set in scant ruff
fle on the edges.
Rosettes Of pink satin ribbon at each
side of the front emphasize the begin.

BALANCED RATIONS FOR HEN
Fowls Cannot Produce Eggs Unless
They Have Lime to Make Shells
Grit Also Needed.

Hens fed an unbalanced ration pro'
duce only one-third to one-half as many
eggs as hens fed a balanced ration
during the same time. An unbalanced
ration wastes from one-half to two
thirds of the feed. Be sure the ration
Is balanced.
Hens cannot make eggs unless they
have lime to make the shells. Feed
and water usually contain only enough
lime to shell one egg for each ten eggs
the feed would produce. The number
of eggs produced from high-priced feed
should not be limited because of lack
of lime. Keep crushed lime rock or
oyster shell before the hens at all
times. Supply hard, sharp grit also.

PROPER attention TO EWES
Little Attention Given at WEAVING
Time Will Be Well Repaid
Should Be Dried OF Carefully.

At weaving time the ability of eve
to produce good lamb often is ruined
because the necessary care is not taken
to see that she is dried off properly. A
little care at this time will be we'll
repaid. Two or three days after the
separation the ewes should be MIXED
out. All Of the milk need not be
drawn from the udder, but enough
should be taken to leave the udder
soft and pliable. Mark with colored
chalk ewes needing no further at
tention. In about three days the ewes
should be MIXED out again and the
drys marked. Further attention
should be given four or five days
later to those not dry.
