MERITS OF WINTER FLOWING
Greatest Advantage Is from Economic
Standpoint-Permits Better Util.
ization Of Labor.

The merits of fall and winter plow-
ing have been discussed pro and con
by many writer's. 1t is evident that
the ACCESSIBILITY Of blowing land In the
fall depends upon several factors. It
is not advisable, as a rule, to break
land not in seed OF some kind, IL 1t is
In need of organic matter, and a cOver
crop can he grown On 1t to pillow under
in the spring. Stiff sods' can be
plowed in the fall, and IN most cases
ought to be. II possible. The greatest,
and perhaps the only decided advan-
tage in fall blowing, is from an eco
monte standpoint. 1t permits q bet
ter utilization of the farm labor and
permits part Of the hardest work on
the farm 10 be done at a time when
other work - net pressing.

tory BY Fierce Onslaught.

Rome, Dec. 28.-Except on the north
ern Italian front military operations
continue far below normal. In France,
where snow has fallen along the en-
tire front, only ~bombardments and
small raiding operations are taking
place.
West of the Brenta river In the Ital-
ian highlands. the Italians continued
their counter-attacks upon the Austro-
German forces which had succeeded
in making gains on Col del Rosso and
Monte de val Bella. The battle waged
throughout the morning with great
violence and the Italians wrested sew
eral Of their former positions from the
enemy. but owing to renewed on
slaughts by the Teutonic forces. they
were again compelled to give ground.
The situation surrounding the peace
parleys between the Austro-Germans
and the Russians is still beclouded be-
cause Of lack OF detail being permitted
to come through.

You can avoid using milk or
cream cans for wrong purposes.
Sometimes people put gasoline
in them and ruin them almost
Immediately.
You a refrain from batter
ing the cans 1eedlessly.
You can return other peoples
cans. ii you happen to get them
by mistake. The owner needs
them.
You can see that your own
can does not lie about the rail-
way station, ever though you
may not be going to use 1t at
once, take 1t away and car for
1t.
You can remind the railway
agent that he may help by CIV
ing cans as much protection rs
possible.
You can rinse the vessel be-
fore using. 1t may have been
thoroughly cleaned at the fnc-
tory but it needs q fresh rinse
before using.
You can keep the vessel clean
inside. Use a little sal soda &C.
casionally in washing the tins
out, II necessary.
You can see that a tin does
not stand in a damp place or
with moisture inside. Espe-
cially at the end Of the season.
when the cans are being put
away. dry each carefully and

Is per cen of it's value while fowls
lose about ten per cent, according to
investigations by the United States
department Of agriculture. If dry
packed brOilers are worth 40 cents.
%wet-packed broilers are not worth
more than IS cents and If dry-packed
fowls cost 30 cents, w%et-packed ones
should not cost more than p cents.
The department specialists point out
that consumers who pay the same
price for dry-packed ones, are losing
money.
Chicken Absorbs Water.
4 chicken thrown into icc-wa.er to
remove animal heat and sent to mar
ket in a barrel In direct contact with
cracked ice, it is pointed out, absorbs
water for which the consumer has to
pay chicken prices. The water also
dissolves out from the chicken v,ilu-
able fiayoring and nutrltive sub
stances. These go into the water at
the bottom of the barrel along with
filth that is washed from dirty feet
and bloody heads and trickles down
ward over the poultry.
Dry Packed Chicken.
With a dry-packed chicken the ami
NAL heat is removed by hanging the
bird in an artificially cooled room
maintained at nearly freezing temper
allure. The chicken is then packed
into a box containing II birds and sent
to market. The box Is hauled in re-
frigerator cars and is kept by good
retailers in good ice boxes until sold.
The bird is never wet: has no chance
to absorb water OF become washed out.
\ bird should never be wet until it
gets a final quick rinsing off in the
housewives kitchen. The practice OF
some housewives of soaking a chicken
after It Is dressed, In q pan Of wa

bach out valuable qualities.

Government Takes Over Raj,
roads With Secretary Me-
Adoo As Director General
ALL SYSTEMS INCLUDED
President issues Proclamation As
Stunning Control Of Every Trans
p~ortation Line Engaged In
General Business.

Washington, Dec. 2S.-President
Wilson proclaims government posses
sion and operation of the nations rail
roads to become effective at non Fri
day, December %.
William MCAdOo. retaining his place
i'll the cabinet as Secretary of the
Treasury. is placed in charge as d.
rector general of the railroads.
Every railroad engaged in general
transportation, with its appurtenances.
including steamship lines, is taken
over and all systems will be operated
as one under the director general.
In a statement accompanying his
proclamation the President announced
that as soon as Congress reassembles
he will recommend legislation guar
anteeing pre-war earnings and main
tenance OF railroad properties in good
repair
Government backing will be given to
new issues of railroad securities that
q ready market may be found.
Move Proves Great Surprise.
The Presidents move, though FORE
cast for weeks. zane at this time as a
great surprise to nearly everybody in
Washington, including railroad Off
,ials. 1t had been generally believed he
would await the r~eassembling Of Con-
gress before taking any step. He act
ed under Secretary OF Wal Baker,
through authority conferred in the
army appropriation act.
Direct management Of the roads will
remain in the hands Of the railroad
officials. and the Railroad Wal Board,
continue to direct actual operation
under Secretary McAdoo's general SUI
pervision.
The chief practical effect of govern
ment operation will be to permit com
plete unification of all rail systems, Inn
possible under private operation by
ease of statutes prohibiting pooling
Of rail traffic and earnings.
The roads themselves had gore as
far as they dared in this direction and
it just became known that they had
been warned by Attorney General
Gregory that a violation of anti-pOol
ing laws could not be permitted. This
situation was fully realized by Pres
ident Wilson, who, in his statement,
declared the roads had gone as fa4'
as they could and already some sys-
TENS were endangering their earnings
In attempting ~unification.
Earnings to Be Guaranteed.
Although the proclamation applies
to all electric lines engaged in general
transportation, local interurban sys-
tens are specifically exempted. Con-
gress will be asked to guarantee earn
ings equivalent to the net operating
income OF each railroad in the three
year period ending June 80, 1917. Rail
road experts estimate that this will
cost the government mex year in the
neighborhood of $100, 00O, 600.
The Interstate Commerce commits
sion and other government agencies,
which have to do with the railroads,
will continue to perform their func-
tons as heretofore, except that they
will be subject to orders of the di-
rector Of railroads.
The President makes it clear that
his decision was not made because Of
any failure on the part of the rail
roads to perform their whole duty in
sofar as they could while hampered
rs they were by legal restrictions.

Tobacco Necessity Says Lord Rhondda

London, Dec. 27.-Tobacco is a ne
Cessity, not a luxury. declares Lord
Rhondda, the food controller, in a
statement published here. I'VE must
have tobacco he says. Il believe
that its loss would be a national mis-.
fortune. 1t means much both to the
manual laborer and to him who works
with his brains. Men would eat q
great deal more II they did not have
tobacco. I hold that deprivation Of it
would work great discomfort" Some
system OF "rationing" tobacco, how.
ever. Is forecast by the newspapers.
