 IS GREAT THEY SAY Dillon and Sim Fein Leader to Speak From Same
 Platform Tomorrow.

London, May At a meet ing of the Irish Unionist alli- ance in Dublin yesterday a re- solution was discussed to the effect that while the alliance was confident of the honorable intentions of the delegates to the recent Irish convention, it differed totally with the find ings of the convention and ad- hered to the fundamental prin- ciples, of the alliance, namely the maintenance of the union between Great Britain and Ire land and opposition to home rule.
 An amendment was moved to the effect that while the meeting approv- ed the attitude of the Unionist dele gates to the convention, events that had since occurred compelled a change of views. The meeting ad- journed without voting on the resolu- ton.
 The standing committee of the Jul ster Unionist council met in Belfast and passed a resolution wholly en- dorsing the attitude of the Ulster Unionists at the convention and con- demning the unprecedented and un- constitutional action" of Sir Horace Plunkett, the convention's chairman, in writing his letter to Premier Lloyd George covering the proceedings of the convention.

In a statement today giving this calculation the mission said every thing indicates that the offensive will be continued almost immediately and that if the brunt of the attack is borne again by the British the situa- ton will become serious unless the British are supported by suff1cie9t re- serves.
 This estimate would appear to be in remarkable contrast to the enormous German losses in the drive. The Ger man war office, of course, has not dis closed to the world what it's, losses in

the great battle have been, but the estimates of Allied observers have placed the loss of German life at a staggering figure.
 From the very nature of the fight ing, military experts have pointed out, the losses of the attackers were bound to be heavier than those of the defenders. But in addition to that, the method of German attack, ad- vancing troops in waves faster than machine guns could mow them down, must military experts say, have en- tailed enormous losses.

FARMERS TO HAVE
CHANCE To SOLVE
MANY PROBLEMS

Crammed into the ten-day short
course for farmers, which will be held
at the University of Florida College
Of Agriculture, al Gainesville, Janu-
airy III, are the answers to many
problems that viii confront Florida
farmers this year.
The first year of the war, 1917, the
farmers of the United States planted
%. 100000 acres more of the leading
food crops than in 1916, and $4,000, 900
more than the five-year pre-war
average, and produced record crops of
most products. They further ircreas-
ed the acreage of the principal food
crops in 1918. But the demand for
foodstuffs in Europe will be great un-
til normal conditions are again es-
tablished. And during that time it is
largely up to the United States to
supply the demand.
The State College of Agriculture
wishes to assist the farmers of Flori-
da in producing larger crops the com
ing year than ever before, and the
short course has been planned to es-
pecially meet the needs of the busy
farmer, and to help him produce these
crops with the least amount of labor
and expense. Four distinct courses
courses will meet the requirements Of
any farmer in the state, whether he is
specializing in livestock, general field
crops, poultry, truck crops, or citrus
growing.
The tractor service school will be
conducted by tractor specialists and
the work will be practical in every
way. The couse is intended to teach
the details of tractor machinery and
it's operation. A number of tractors
will be available for study and prac-
tice work. A feature of the course
will be a discussion and demonstra-
ton of p1ows and other tractor imple-
ments.
The first five days of the citrus Gull
ture and spraying machinery course
will include laboratory and field
study of the organisms that attack
the trees and methods for their con-
troll During the last five days a
spraying machinery service from an
engineering point of view. The oper-
ators will be trained to detect troubles
of the machinery and to make neces-
sary repairs.
The course in animal husbandry and
general agriculture will probably ap-
peal to farmers of the northern and
western part Of the state more than
any OtHeT course. InlS course Will
include lectures, practical exercises
and field work with soils, fertilizers
and staple crops for Florida; planning
and organizing the farm work;
breeding. feeding and management of
the important domestic animals for
production OF work, meat and milk.
The nature, care and treatment Of
common diseases and injuries of cat
tie, mules and horses will be given
special attention.
The course in poultry husbandry
should appeal to the farmers all over
the state, and to the farm women in
particular. With eggs bringing the
high price that they are at the pres
ent time, it is certainly worth the
while Of every poultry, raiser to know
how to produce the largest number
of eggs possible.

Fine Old Palaces In
Italy Are urned Into
Hospital and Shelters

Rome, Italy, March 2.-The finest
old palaces in Italy are gradually
being turned into habitations again
after centuries OF disuse. due TO the
need for soldier hospitals and for
shelter for the hundreds Of thousands
OF refugees from the invaded
provinces Part of the immense pal
ace at Caserta. built in 1852 for the
king Of Naples, commonly known as
the Versailles OF Italy has been turned
into a barrack for Austrian prisoners.
Two years ago king Victor Emanuel
end queen Elena gave the huge royal
palace on the Quirinal hill in Rome
for use as a hospital, and lately they
even gave their own private apar.-
ments to refugee children.
Among the buildings belonging TO
the Catholic church loaned for the
same purpose by order OF pope Bene-
dict. is the monastery Of St. Anselm,
on the Aventine Hill.
The American Red Cross has rec
commended the housing OF refugees in
specially built huts as these palaces
are untitled for the homes Of poor or
working people.
