LONDON'S NEWSPAPERS
 HAVE FAVORABLE TONE

London, Oct. 15-The London even- ing newspaper comment on P,resi- dent Wilson's reply to Germany is generally favorable in tone.
 The Standard, under the heading 'The Right Note" says that the note "has removed certain false impres- sions which were possible in regard to his three questions to Germany"
 The newspaper regreats that presi- dent Wilson did not refer to punish ment for U-boat crimes and the burn ing of towns.
 The Pail Mall Gazette says that President Wilson's reply "reaches his highest standards of point and promptness"
 The Globe finds these is no cmb;g- uity about President Wilson's stern reply and is "afraid the Germans will not like the manner in which 1'resi- dent, Wilson received their request"
 "Foclr, Haig and Pershina" the newspaper asserts, twill determine in concert the guarantees they must have in mind before granting a cessation of hostilities."
 The Westminster Gazette gives first place to President Wilson's de mand for ''the destruction of every arbitrary power.
 s' The Manchester uGardian say- that Germany has surrendered and, ai,ho much remains to be defined and set.

tied that great central fact stands established, which means a speedy end of the war. k
 The newspaper considers President Wilson not likely to accent the chan cellor's reply as to the exact mean ing of German note and says the problem would be vastly eased by the kaiser's abdication.
 On the question of an armistice, the Guardian thinks the immediate and vital question for President Wilson to consider in consultation with the allies and especially in consultation with Marshal Foch, is the nature of the security to be exacted for the withdrawal of the hostile armies and that the enemy does not utilize the interval to build up afresh his means of resistance or attack. and suggests the temporary occupation of Essen as the best security against a piling up of munitions, the evacuation of the whole of Alsace- Lorraine and the sur render of the German U-boat fleet
 "These military terms may appear severe, but it is best to make it plain from the beginning that an armistice means without doubt a peace, equit- able as President Wilson has defined equities, and sure as we all mean to assure it. se
 "We shall not exact vengeance.
 "We shall not impose needless humiliation:
 "We shall certainly require Ger many to do whatever is necessary for eXpiation and reparation and the safety of the world"

A STRAIGHT BLOW IS
 VERDICT OF PARISIANS

Paris, Oct. 15.-"A straight blow" is the caption of an article by Jean Herbette, foreign editor of the Temps, today, dealing with President Will sons latest reply to Germany which he, finds not only satisfactory in ev- cry sense. but says will be received in, France with gratitude for the manner in which it stigmatizes Ger many's crimes.
 After President Wilson's first reply to Germany, the editorial begins, German official representative re- tinue.
 It is doubtful now, the article con- tinues, if they rejoice at having op- ened the conversation.
 "The government at Berlin is now obliged to allow the reply to appear in every newspaper in Germany" says the editorial, "it will not consolidate Chancellor Max's position, weakened by his unfortunate letter, nor Vice Chancellor Won Payers who made the annexationist speech nor Dr. Solf's (German Foreign Secretary) who secretary of state when Belgium was occupied.
 4"It will not consolidate the author ity of Prussian staff nor the person al. prestige of the kaiser, nor the popularity of the dynasty or imperial regime. !
 The directors of Germany sought public debate.
 They have it. The first result is that they appear in the eyes of their peo- Dle. Qaspinp for peace, as the Obstac- les to peaces" The writer welcomes President Wilson's decision to send to a separate reply to Austria Hun- gary and in this connection says:
 "A single reply would have been to sanction their alliance, which was one of principal causes of the war, and the destruction of which is one of the essential conditions of peace.'

 SECURING FULL JUSTICE

Paris. Oct. 15.-During a discus sion in the senate today of the dam ages suffered by northern France, without military justification Stephen Pichon, the French foreign minister, reiterated the governments resolu- tion to exact full compensation and reparation.
 Furthermore" the foreign minis ter concluded" this warning has just been given in decisive form by Presi- dent Wilson in his admirable reply to the proposals for an armistice from Berlin.
 The President of the Uniter States, in which resolutions we always have had entire confidence, has signified that he refuses, like ourselves, to negotiate an armistice with a state whose armies continue to dishonor themselves by acts of spoilation. de- vastation and savagery."

BANK CHECKS TAXED
Two Cents Tax on Bank Checks Adopted by Senate Finance
 Committee.

Washington, Oct. 15.-A stamp tax of two cents on all bank checks is provided for in an amendment to the
 war revenue bill adopted by the sen- ate finance committee which is re- vising the house draft.
 The amendment was adopted by a
 vote of 8 to6. Many members, however. express ed a doubt as to it's acceptance by the senate.
 Such tax is opposed by treasury department officials and many sena- tors because it not only would be a serious inconvenience to business but would tend to discourage thrift and encourage hoarding. The amount of revenue from such tax would be small in the opinion fexperts. Consideration of the revenue bill progressed so rapidly today that Chairman Simmons tonight reiterated his prediction that the bill would be completed by about Oct. 25. E. c.

A Cheering Word.

If somebody tells you that the aver
age life of an officer in the trenches is
nine days and that if your boy gets
into the front line he is certain to be
killed within two weeks, don't believe
him, says Milestones. He probably
got his information from German
propaganda, since our Teuton friends
seem bent on trying to brighten us out
of this war. No losses were more ex-
cessive than those among the British
infantry officers during the first year of
the war, when they fought losing
fight, without artillery support, aud
insisted on exposing themselves in
conspicuous uniforms. The percentage
of casualties among them for the first
year was 1873, according to the official
figures.
The percentage Of casualties among
cur allies has been decreasing. The
Proportion for the entire French army
was 5.41 per cent in 1914, per cent
In 1915 and 2.75 per cent for 1916. The
total for % months was little over u
per cent.

REVIVED OLD APPLE STORY
Prisoner Related In Court That His.
Adam and Eve Encounter Was
Caused by the Red Fruit.

Ever since Eve tempted Adam with
nm apple there has been more or less
trouble" remarked James +. Deery,
judge of city court, says the Indian
apolis News, "but this morning was
the first time that have had an ex-
ample of the trouble which may be
caused between a man and woman by
an apple"
A man had been arrested charged
with assault and battery on his wife,
The wife had tried to shield him when
she took the stand, but admitted hav-
ing had a little unpleasantness with
her mate.
When the man took the stand he
asked whether he should tell the story
from the beginning, and when told to
go ahead started by saying: "Judge,
your honor, all this trouble was caused
by an apple"
Eyes. have heard that story be-
FORE said the Judge. "The Bible even
says that an apple caused trouble be-
tween Adam and Eve, and most people
think that an of our troubles date to
that time.D
but this was Il real apple" replied
the prisoner 1--WE had an argument
over it and whom my wife became loud
/ merely showed her away from me.
Then some nosey neighbors called the
police"
'All right said Judge Deery "but
I believe the real cause Of this trouble
is that you do not work steadily. Now
l am going to let you go this time on
the condition that You heed some adj
vice relative to steady employment,
which friend Of yours is going to
give you as soon as you leave the
courtroom"

MERITS OF WINTER FLOWING
Greatest Advantage Is from Economic
standpoint-Permits Better UtiI-
ization of Labor-

The merits of fall and winter plow-
ing have been discussed pro and con
by many writer's. IT is evident that
the ACCESSIBILITY Of pio-ving land in the
fall depends upon s><eral factors. 1t
is not advisable, as a rule. to break
land not in sect Of some kind, If it is
in need of organic matter, and a cover
crop can be grown ON It to pillow under
in the spring. Stiff GODS can be
plowed in the fall, and in most cases
ought TO be, If possible. The greatest,
and perhaps the only decided advan-
tage in fall blowing, Is from an eco
nenic standpoint. 1t permits bet
ter utilization of the farm labor anc
permits part Of the hardest work o.
the farm to be done at a time wher
other work is not pressing.
