Warmly Welcomed in London by
Great Pageant After Journey
From Calais.
ALL EYES ON PRESIDENT
American Executive Rides With King
Through Flag Decked Street Be-
tween Lines of Troops-To
Explain Principles In
Address.

London, Dec. 27-President and
Mrs. Wilson were in Buckingham pal
ace after a journey from Calais to
London. during which they were ac.
corded ALI the honors ever given roy
atty. Never has a royal program ex.
cept those of great national ceremo.
malls excited such interest here as the
first state visit of an American presi-
dent.
The drive from the station to the
palace, was made through streets lined
with guard regiments in khaki Fresh
flags hung overhead and covered the
buildings, while windows, sidewalks
and open spaces were filled with peo.
pie, many of whom wore the American
colors.
All Eyes on Wilson.
1t was a brief spectacle. First came
the sovereign's escort of troops from
the household cavalry with helmets
and steel cuirasses. Then came the
carriages with King George and Presi-
dent Wilson. Queen Mary, Mrs. Wilson
and Princess Mary These were fol-
lowed by three others which passed
almost unnoticed as all eyes were on
Mr.. and Mrs Wilson and the royal
family.
Although the trip was short one
1t lay through a most interesting Sec
tion of London.
Flags Cover Monument.
From Charing Cross the route ran
along the north side of Trafalgar
square with the Nelson monument
towering on the left and the national
gallery on the right, its gray walls
almost covered by huge American and
British flags. 1t continued along Pail
Mall, turning northward at ST. James
palace and up st. James street to Pic
cadilly-the chief landmarks along
this stage being the solid weatherworn
buildings of the old London clubs, now
decked with bunting they keep for spe-
cial occasions.
One important Address.
AT least one very important address
may be expected from the president
while he is in England. 1t may define
issues in which Great Britain is SO
deeply interested. He will take oppor-
tunity to do this in the course of con-
ferences with Premier Lloyd George,
A. j. Balfour, secretary of state for
foreign affairs, and Andrew Bonar
Law, chancellor of the exchecuer, but
whatever public speeches he viii
make will be in explanation to the
English people themselves, who, he
believes are in accord with the prin-
ciples on which the making of peace
has been begun.
Probably the most interesting part
of the spectacle for the president was
the people who crowded everywhere to
greet him. The day was holiday and
the workingmen and women made the
most of their opportunity, and to no
stratum of British humanity could the
president have made a stronger ap-
peal.

RAISING ANIMALS FOR ARMY
Government and Farmers Cooperating
In Production of Cavalry and Ar
tiiIery Remounts.

| prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
In order to encourage the production
Of horses suitable for cavalry and light
artillery uses, the United States de-
partment of agriculture, in co-operat-
ing with the war department, has
placed in selected localities good,
sound stations of proper type and Of
fered mare owners special induce
ments to make use of them. This
plan. made possible by a provision of
congress in 1913, grew out Of the diff

curing sufficient number of army re

mand as result of the growing popu-

The plan consists primarily in plac-
ing stations of merit, registered in the
proper stud books and belonging to
the Thoroughbred, American Saddle,
Standardized, and Morgan breeds in
suitable localities in Vermont, New
Hampshire, Virginia, West Virginia.
Kentucky, and Tennessee. Mare own
ers may breed to these stations on the
following terms. The owner of the
mare agrees in writing at the time Of
breeding to give the government an OPP
ton on the resulting colt as a three
year-old at a stated price, which so
far has been $3.50. No service fee Is
charged unless the owner of a colt
wishes to be released from the option,
In which case it is $25.
This means that practically no
money is invested in service fees. II
the colt is purchased by the govern
ment no fee is charged, nor is there
any charge if the colt is offered to the
government and purchase refused be-
cause it does not qualify. The breed
er does not have to pay a service fee
on a colt which dies, which is de-
formed, or which is seriously injured,
Only sound mares that approach either
a cavalry or a light artillery type are
used. Records taken June 30, 1917,
show that 3,0S9 colts have been pro-
duced since this plan was put in OPP

ing season in 1913.

farmers. The brood mares are usual
ly farm work animals which generally
pay for their feed by doing farm work.
and the colts are brought up to birth
without cost. High-class stations are
available for the mare owners use.
Community breeding, which is of in
estimable value, is encouraged. The
object of the remount breeding work
is to select for and breed sound horses
possessing quality, stamina and en-
durance which conform to the army's
needs, and such animals will also be
useful for general farm work especial
ly in mountainous sections. While it
is true that the heavy draft horse is
more valuable for most farm work,
there are many sections where light
horses are better suited because of
their activity, sure-footedness, superb
or lung capacity and endurance.
,The governments plan of aiding
farmers in producing army horses is
giving them material as well as eduA
cational aid in developing an impor-
tant phase Of their farming opera
tons. Good horse power is indispen-
sable to successful farming and good
horses cannot be produced without
good sires. From the agricultural
standpoint alone, the publication says,
the remount breeding work should be
extended to other suitable localities,
