Telegram Follow "Flirtations."

The kruger telegram" referred to
by the former emperor was sent by
him to Dom Paul Kruger, president
of the Transvaal republic, January 8,
1896. 1t was the outcome of German
''fiirtat;ons" with the Transvaal, re-
public. during which the intentions of
Germany toward British influence in
South Africa caused deep concern.
This "fiirtation'' began III the early
nineties and was brought to the no.
tice of the world by President Kruger
in January, 1895, when. at a banquet
given in honor of Williams birthday ut
Pretoria. Kruger referred in glowing
terms to Germany's friendship for the
Transvaal, which. he said would 'in
future be more firmly established than
ever The historic Jameson raid
was made late in the same year and
January 2, 1896, Jameson found him
self surrounded by Beers at Doorn-
kop and surrendered. The next day
the emperor's telegram was sent. 1t
congratulated Kruger that without
appealing to the help Of friendly pow
ers'' he had repelIed the raiders. This
act caused much surprise in England.

RY I. A. FLEMING.

The federal reserve bank Of Rich
mond, anticipating the usual holiday
demand for new gold coins OF various
denominations, has taken the matter
up in ample time to prevent the banks
from giving up any Of tho yellow
metal. Gov. Seay urges the continued
refusal and the transfer OF any gold
on hand to the care Of the federal
reserve banks.
Because OF the stock being larger
than some economists think the Eoss,.:
ernn,ent should hold. the impressicn
has been created that gold might be
available for gifts again. especially
with the war a matter OF the past,
virtually. il not actually.
Bankers are urged to obtain new
bills as substitute for the yellow
boys. and the federal reserve banks
send fresh bills against requests, pay
ing for transfer and insurance there
on, in order to expedite the suostitu-
tion.

BRITISH GOVERNMENT
HELPS PAY FOR BREAD

There has been much misundcr-
standing about the bread program in
England. 1t is true that the English
man buys loaf Of bread for less than
an American can, but it is poorer
bread, and the British government is
paying $200,000,O0O a year toward The
cost OF ii.
All the grain grown I'm Great Brit.
ain Is taken over by the government
mt an arbitrary price and the imported
wheat purchased on the markets at
the prevailing market price. This is
turned over to The mills by the govern
ment at a price that allows the adul-
,eratcd war bread loaf OF four pounds
to sell at IS cents, the two pound loat
at cents and the one pound loaf at {:
cents.
In France, under conditions some

six times this amount Of money ex-
pended in labor. For example, one
ton Of good fertilizer will now cost
about $4,000. The plant food in this
quantity when applied to three acres
OF land will give an increase OF about
$50 pounds Of lint cotton and 1900
pounds Of seed. The lint at soc per
pound amounts to $225.0O, and tho
seed at $4,000 per ton amounts to
$4,000, making total Of $2S5.00.
Few business concerns net so per
cent increase on money invested In
labor, but, granting that the farmer
Will net 100 per cent on his invest
ment in labor, and supposing that he
pays $100 per day for labor, tho
$4,000 invested in fertilizer, when in
vested in labor, would net him $4,000:
whereas, when invested III fertilizer, it
gives him net increase of $239.0O.
Thus it can be seen the tremendous;
advantage OF Supplementing labor
with liberal applications Of plant food
Likewise an improved piece Of ma
chincry that makes 1t possible to cul-
tivate an acre Of cotton or corn with
perhaps half the labor ordinarily en-
ployed, and cultivate it better, should
be looked to at this time as a source
Of help in facing the labor shortage
Good seed Of a strain known to dc
well in q community will do much to
ward increasing yields, without an In
crease Of acreage.
Is this not q time when the farmer
should be sure to use these three croT
makers, to the fullest extent, to off
| set the labor shortage?

MAKING MEATLESS
DAYS PERMANENT.

In the meatleSs menu there is n fer
tile field for developing new and nour-
ishing dishes, according to l.. III. Niles,
writing In the Hotel Gazette, who be-
hcvcs that the present shortage OF
meat and fats will not end with the
coming of pence, but may grow more
acute and continue for five or six
years, thus making ii worth while to
develop menus Of grain, vegetables
and fish on more or less permanent
basis. Meat can be replaced by cereals
and other protein foods. or may be
served in very small portions as ia
voring for other food. IN making up
meatless menus this author finds our
American Creole and southern cuisine
@ broad field for investigation.
