Action in Siberia Approved
by Powers Although U. S.
Makes No Statement.

Washington, March 5. Exchanges
regarding the situation in Siberia and
the proposed action there by the Japa-
nese are continuing and apparently
have developed the fact that there Is
no difference in principle between
the United States and Japan, although
the United States probably will not
give formal assent 10 any operations
which may be undertaken.
White House officials were disturbed
tonight over a published report that
the statement had been authorized that
the United States was not in accord
with the attitude Of the allies toward
the Japanese plans. II was explained
that no statement had been authorized
except that the United States had not
given its assent 10 the action under
consideration.
Would Thwart Germans.
The principle upon which all parties
to the exchanges are said to be agreed
is that il German iHfluence Is work
ing harmfully in Siberia and If there
Is imminent risk of the loss Of the
military stores at Vladiyostok, Japan
will be justified in using whatever
measure of force may be necessary Ia
carry out her obligation to maintain
peace In the far east. during the prog
ress of the war.
One diplomat remarked today that
public discussion of the Siberian dues-
| tion seemed to lose sight Of the eais-
tence of a special treaty between Grea'
Britain and Japan making it obliga-
1 tory upon the latter to protect no
only her own interests. but that of hel

Asia.

French FrugaIity

Minneapolis Journal-one of the
fine bits of salvage coming to America
out of the rubbish dump CT this great
wal is the lesson of frugality.
Financial conditions in France. be-
fore the war, were in some particulars
superior to those in America, but only
because of French frugaIity. Frugal
ity is not merely a French habit, it is
a trait of French character, an article
in the French code of ethics. Extrav-
agance in France is deemed vulgarity,
and careful economy good form.
France is the teacher of the worlds
cooking school; but the secret of her
success is the art of making a little
go far and taste well. France can do
more work on less food; can be more
comfortable with less fuel; can dress
better with less expense and save
more on a smaller income than any
other people Of Europe.

Matchmaking Influences

Minneapolis Journal-The report
that there are forty thousand men in
the cantonments who can neither read
nor write the language of this Coun-
try-of their Country-comes with
| something of a shock to most of us.
| Secretary Lane called attention to it
again the other day at Chicago, and
insisted that but one language, Eng
lish, should be taught in the public
schools, and that instruction in foreign
languages should be left to the col
leges.
We nave trusted that the legendary
melting pot would somehow take
care of the work of assimilation in the
long run Any public man who be-
fore the war proposed what Secretary
Lane nov proposes, would have been
called intolerant and narrow. But
the wal has thrown a great white
light 'pon national tendencies, grow
tbs and stagnations.
The American people are now de-
handing that we have a Nation here,
and not a conglomerate of strange
tongues and races, with little concep-
ton among them of the Fundamental
principles, or of the language of the
Nation to which those from afar have
come to better themselves, and TO
escape the prosecutions, miiitarism
and autocracies of the old world.
One of the greatest Matchmaking in
iuences that We have developed is the
public school system, and in this Eng
lish and English alone should be
taught. A second great nationizing
influence has proved to be the COM
pulsory military training of which the
Country has had a taste because of the
war The results in the camps and
cantonments seem to be of the best.
Universal military training will doubt
less continue after the war, with ma
tionalization as n of its purposes.
The great task of constructive
craftsmanship will come when the
war is out of the way, and when OPP
position, delaying tactics and party
obstruction may no longer be locked
upon as unpatriotic. Then VIII come
tho work OF garnering some of the
traits Of the struggle, Of putting foun.

New York Sun

Washington-A glowing tribute ia
paid the American soldiers in France
by a French officer in q letter pub
lished In the Paris Temps. The letter,
written to a friend said:
Infinitely interesting is our con-
tact with the American troops. They
have occupied the sector Immediately
beside ours. W. have een them at
work. and 1t should be told and retold
that they are marvellous. The Ameri-
cans are soldiers by nature. and their
officers have the desire to learn with
an enthusiasm and an idealistic ardor
very remarkable
There is the same spirit among the
privates. They ask questions with q
touching good will, setting aside all
conceit or prejudice. Naturally they
have the faults OF all new troops. They
show themselves too much and expose
themselves imprudently, letting them
selves be carried away by their ardor.
not knowing when to spare themselves
or to seek shelter or when to risk
everything for an end. This expert
ence will be quickly learned.
"As for bravery. activity and disci-
pline they are marvellous. They abso-
lutely astonished us one morning OF
attack. The cannonade, suddenly Der
coming furious, had just thrown me
out of my bunk. No doubt about 1t,
IL was a Verdun attack. Taking time

can have no idea how cheering II was

Their artillery will be and already

The little pocket account book is an
institution in France. Women excel
in the use of It, as they excel In small
finance. Family spending is done by
budget, and savings are accomplished
by prearranged plan. Whatever a
French family receives as income, on
this 1t lives and from this Il lays up.
What IL cannot buy, 1t goes without
unfrettingly.
Before the war the average income
of a French family was one-third less
than that of an English family, and
the cost of necessities in France one
third more than those in England.
But the French family had a better
savings account than tfe one across
the channel; and the difference was
caused chiefly by the French art OF
making a little go far and look we'll
or taste good, or feel comfortable.
This frugal habit has made the little
savers OF France the bondholders Of
France and France the creditor OF the
world. Similar conditions will again
prevail in France when the wal is
over.

Feeding Dead animals to Hogs Is Bad
Practice.


FREDERICKSBURG dead animals &c
hogs should be a criminal offense,
says DIR. G s. Weaver, inspector, State
college extension division. Hogs may
contract many contagious diseases
from eating e-srca55ss. For instance:
A COW suddenly died on a farm and
was dragged out for the hogs to eat.
In a few days they swelied in their
throats, and as the farmer said, "all
died from the quinsy." The fact a
the COW died Of anthrax. and OF curse
the hogs died Of the same disease.
Frequently the question is asked,
why is It not safe to feed dead ami
mails that are not diseased" The
proper reply is, How do you know
the dead animals were not diseased?'
Don't take chances.

Our arms are hinged at top. Cheap imita-
tons are hinged at bottom.
Our arms are hinged on 81 steel bolts. lmi-
tations are hinged on IA inch cottor pin.
Our oiler has real ground brass valves. lmi-
tations use leather, stove bolts, or spoons for
valves.
Our reservoir is cast intregai with base and
your bull can't break them, Cheap limitations
use tin cans for reservoir requiring a fence
around same for protection against cattle.
Our valves don't leak. Leather and stove
bolt valves do.
Our arms operate at a pressure of 2 ounces.
limitations require from is to 20 | s at same
heighty. Sucking pigs can operate the Schultz
oiler as easy as a 400 lib. hog.
Our oiler was developed right i'm a hog lot,
by a practical hog raiser, and to meet the re-
through this country and find limitations cast
aside but you never saw a Schultz Oier cast
