that merchant marine owed Its very
existence to the forbearance of Great
Britain and that ut the first breath Of
war it would melt away.
Germany, therefore, determined to
pin her faith on railways which should
pass through lands under her control.
This is the secret of the Berlln-Bag-
dad railway. This Is the reason why
Turkey was brought under her domin-
ion and Serbia was sacrificed. To this
belief In her continental destiny is due
the desire to exercise her Influence
over Austria. The fulfllment of her
plan involved the control of CONSTANT
nople, since only at Constantlnople
can the water separating Europe from
Asia Minor be crossed. Serbia had to
be subjected to her dominion because
the only practicable path for rail-
way to Constantinople was through
the Morava valley which lay in Serb
ian territory. If Germany can control
this route she need not consider her
unfavorable position us regards the
sea. She will have u commercial high
way unassailable by any power. She
will also have vast territory capable
of economic development. She can
finally make the present sea routes SO
dangerous by attack from submarine
bases, either In the north or In the
neighborhoOd of Constantinople, that
they will have to be abandoned. The
freedom of the seas will have been
destroyed, the economic unity Of the
world seriously impaired. and the
work Of centuries rendered of little or
no avail.
Must Destroy Land Power.
The submarine is significant to US
then not because through Its use sew
eral hundred American lives have been
lost or because few American ships
have been destroyed, but because the
whole fabric Of international eco
nomic life is threatened. The only
way in which to save that life-and
that 1t Is worth saving none will deny
is to destroy Germany's land power,
or cause her to realize that the world
will not permit any nation so to con-
duct herself as to imperll ideals which

milton. That we as Americans are In
terested In these questions is thus
quite evident AT first blush the in
terest which we have In securing to
Serbia an outlet on the Adrlntic, or
in the rehabilitation Of the Balkan
states does not perhaps appear. Nor Is
the reason evident, perhaps, at first
why we should Insist upon the emanci-
patton of the Slavs submerged in the
Austro-Hungarian empire. A strong
Serbia and u weak Austria, however,
are absolutely necessary If Germany
is still disposed to use the submarine
in the manner in which 1t has been
used. For only under these cOndi-
tions will the land route upon which
she has staked SO much become impos-
sible. Only when such land route
has been abandoned will Germany be
forced to return to the sea. When
she does she will find 1t necessary tC
observe the rules which have been
elaborated to protect the freedom Of
the sea. Only when she does so can
we hope for a further development
In the direction of the economic unity
| Of the world which means so much for
human progress.

eee.keepIno In Now Zealand.

At the late annual meeting of the
Walkato Beekeepers' association at
Hamilton, an assistant director of the
horticultural division of the depart
ment of agriculture stated that there
were 4,391 aplarles registered In New
Zealand, representing 5O.523 colonies
of bees. One beekeeper last year re-
turned 80 tons of honey. which he sold
at S4s7 per ton, while some was sold
as high as s730 per ton. thus making
it very prosperous industry.

DRINK LOTS OF MILK
Be liberal in the use of milk.

Be liberal in the use Of milk.
1t is good food-the best food
in the world, In fact-and for all
the milk that is used a corre-
spending quantity of transport
able food Is saved for overseas.
Give the children plenty of
whole milk, and drink a fair
quantity yourself. 1t is one of
the best bone and body builders.
Do not throw away the skim
milk. 1t contains the protein,
sugar and lime of whole milk.
Get acquainted-unless you al
ready are-with the charms of
buttermilk. 1t Is a refreshing
cold drink-quite as refreshing
as any you could buy ut foun-
tain. And 1t is a fine food. Men
can do hard manual labor on
buttermilk alone. That has been
demonstrated.
Save, certainly, but save the
milk. Do not try to save on
milk.

alive long enough to mature and lay
eggs multiply prodigiously. The dip
ping in the vat each fortnight catches
these newly hatched ticks before they
have got to the egg-laying stage.
No More Ticks.
After few months of dipping there
are no more live ticks to lay eggs and
no more eggs left to hatch out In the
grass. Cows and steers instead Of turn
Ing a large part Of the feed they eat
into ticks. turn all of 1t into milk and
meat.
BY December ] 1t is hoped that 125
additional counties of the South will
be freed from this pest. At the rate
tick eradication is now going. officials
of the department believe that in 1921
the South will be practically free of
cattle ticks and will have come into
its own as cattle-raising section.

MARTYR and Coward.

A witty Judge declared recently that
"a patriot was man who refused to
button his wlfe's blouse. A martyr"
he went on, as one who attempts and
fails, while hero tries and succeeds"
"Then what is coward?" asked
curious bystander.
''Oh, coward" replied the judge,

Department of Agriculture Urges
More Liberal Use of Product
to Save Meat.
n ExcElS ALL OTHER FOODS
There Are Always Sick Children In All
Localities Where Milk ls Scarce
Excellent for Body Build
Ing Protein.

Milk is the nearest approach to
perfect human food, and 1t is by far
the best food for children. Children
must have milk in order to develop
properly, and all persons of whatever
age need 1t in order to keep In prop
er conditin.
The advice of the United States de-
partment of agriculture is: Save on
other things If you can. but not on
milk, your child's best food"
Children who do not get milk, but
are given tea and coffee instead, are
for the most part sickly. There are
always many sick children in cities
and In countries where milk is scarce.
When prices go up and mothers begin
to economize on milk, more children
become sick. That is one Of the
things that. under any and every con-
dition, the government regards 1t as
essential to guard against. Food
must be saved to feed the army and
money must be saved to finance the
war, but the nations children who in
a little while will be the nations men
and women must be given their oppor-
tunity for health and strength. Incl
dentally, the liberal use Of milk does
save meat and other transportable
foods.
Needed for Bones and Teeth.
Children. in larger measure than
grown persons. require lime. 1t Is
needed, particularly. for their bones
and teeth, and In smaller quantities
for their blood and other parts OF
their bodies. MIX is the chief food
for lime. A cup Of milk contains ap-
proximately four times as much lime
as an egg. It is the cheapest food for
lime.
Milk is also an excellent food for
y-building protein. In that respect
It Is like eggs and meat. MIX pro-
tein is especially good for children,
but 1t is good for and should be USED
by everybody.
MIX, in addition, is an excellent
fuel food. Children, who are much
more active than adults, need more
fuel to burn in their bodies to help
them run and play and work. The
fat. and the milk sugar burn up as
fuel, A quart of milk gives the same
amount of fuel as a pound of lean
meat, A quart of milk gives the same
amount Of fuel as eight eggs. MIX,
even at advanced cost, is the cheap
est fuel food. Take your pencil and
make little comparison In cents.
= Skim Milk Also Good.
Whole milk, of course. is the best
food. But skim milk is good food
too. 1t has the lime, the sugar and the
protein of the whole milk. 1t is de-
fcient in fat and has not much Of the
growth substances as has whole milk.
Use whole nfilk-but do not throw
away the skim milk.
Every child, big or little, should
have plenty of milk. The big boys and
girls need It only slightly less than do
the babies, and grown persons need
1t only slightly less than the big boys
and girls.
Be liberal with the milk ration. Do
not think of milk merely as refresh
ing drink. Think of it as a good.
nourishing food-the best food. The
children need other foods. of course
vegetables. fruits. cereals. But, most
of all, they need milk.
Be sure that the milk is clean and
fresh when 1t is delivered to you, and
that you keep 1t cold and clean and
covered until 1t is used.

agreed to supply as many trucks as
