The WOMEN Join IN
FIGHTING IN BERLIN
German Capital Facing Two RevOlts
Is On Verge of Complete Anarchy.

London, December 27-Wives and
sweethearts of the mutinous German
sailors have seized rifles and joined in
defense of the royal palace against the
Civil Guard, according to a despatch
filed in Berlin Wednesday night and
received by the Express today.
Although the sailors technically
nave surrendered, they refused to
leave the city and have announced
they will continue to support Chancel-
lor Ebert, who permits them to re-
main.
"The city is on the verge of an
archy and fighting is expected to con-
tirue," the despatch said.
Two distinct conflicts now are un-
der way in the city-the armed oppo-
sition of the sailors and their women
to orders transferring the men to
coastal cities, and the enorts of the
rejuvenated Spartacides to overthrow
the Ebert-Scheidemann government.
The Snartacides, under leadership
OF Karl Liebknecht, have announced
their intention of forcing the present
ministry to resign.
The despatch said they continue in
possession of the Vorwaerts plant,
from which they are issuing the Red
Vorwaerts." The building is defend
ed by IS machine guns and an ar
mored car.
A portion of the palace still was
held by the sailors, while the govern
ment troops held the remainder.

RECORD COW IS THE
PROPERTY OF The STATE
Farmers VIII Be Told Something of
Proper Breeding During Farmers
Week at University.

Dollie's Valentine, 1O5049, was a
registered Jersey COW that was pur-
chased by the Kentucky Experiment
Station in 1896. She looked to the au-
thorities there like a read producer
and a useful sort of COW. She was
riilked carefully and fed well, and pro-
duced in one year 1928 pounds of
r'ilk and 676 pounds of butter. She
was a prolific COW that had calf ev-
cry year, giving birth to thirteen
calves before she died in 1910. Like
a great many mothersly COWS she
passed the regular breeding habit on
to her offspring. One daughter had
ten calves, another daughter eleven
and third daughter had an even doz-
er calves. AS a consequence of this
prolific nature her descendants today
dominate in the Station herd. Daugh-
ters, granddaughters and great grand
daughters of the old COW are in the
herd. Best of all she handed on the
,bility to produce great quantities of
milk and butter, because her daugh-
ers and granddaughters are all max
ne register of merit records that vary
from seven to eight thousand pounds
of milk and from four to six hundred
pounds of butter in a year.
Dollie is a fine example of good
COW that founded very useful family.
Il pays to start with good foundation
stock in any breed and then to keep
he best, and only the best offspring
-om that foundation stock. The herd
the Station has rapidly Increased
Il production as the best offspring OF
rollie are mated with fine bulls year
Z after year. This is an excellent illus
lration of constructive breeding, a
subject that will be fully discussed at
Farmers Week at the University of
kentucky, January 2Sth to S1st, and
this useful family of COWS will be ex-
tibited and the methods of breeding,
feeding and caring for them will be
fully explained.

PRES. WILSON Wins
ENGLAND TO THE
LEAGUE OF NATIONS
Lord Robert Cecil Voices His COun-
try's Stand on President VII.
sons Suggestion.

London, December 27-Great Brit
ain not only is willing but is deter
mined that the Peace Congress shall
organize a permanent League Of Ma
tlons before its adjournment.
Lord Robert Cecil, foremost Brit
ish authority on this subject, made
this clear in an interview today.
Cecil said he had never entertained
any motion of the peace delegates,
simply giving the League of Nations
idea their blessing and leaving the de-
tails to be worked out in the future.
On the contrary, he wants no OPEN
ing left for possible failure of the
league to materialize.
Investigation in government circles
reveals Cecil is speaking the British
governments mind, as well as his own
"Now we know the horror OF war;"
he said. "a year from now the old
glamor may return. We must guard
against this possibility"
Cecil gave the following provisions
as the necessary foundations or the
league:
First-A permanent secretariat.
Second-A fixed place of meeting
Third-Periodical meetings. These
meetings must include as working
members men really entitled to speak
for the peoples of their countries, such
as premiers or foreign ministers or
their equivalent Meetings must be
held at least once a year.
Fourth-It is essential no war shall
be possible until it is discussed either
at the periodical meetings or at a
meeting especially called for the par
pose.
"These are the vital things" Cecil
said. "Of course as recently out
lined, the league must have non-ccn-
tentious as we'll as contentious fca-
lures.
"It must have broader purpo7 es
than merely prevention of wars. 1t
must have administrative powers as
well, in order to settle disputes"

why HOLSTEIN CAT.
Tie ARE URGED ON
MASON FARMERS
County Agent Explains why Mason
County Farmers Are Urged to
Raise Pure Bred Holstein.
Friesinn Cattle.

Some time ago the Holstein- -Friesian
cattle men in Mason county organized
o Holstein-Friesian Association here
and since that time Mason county
farmers have been urged to raise pure
bred cattle of that particular breed
For many years farmers through
this section were partial to the Jersey
and many questions have been asked
about the recommendation of our agri-
cultural leaders to specialize in the
Holstein cow County Agent Kirk was
asked why this special breed was be-
ing urged and in order that all may
understand he makes the following
statements
There are three things which one
should consider in choosing a breed of
dairy cattle. One may have other rea-
sons than the three given, but If he ig-
nores any one of these he is taking
chances on losing money. Many ques-
tions have been asked as to why the
Holstein-Friesian COW is recommended
to Mason county. The only fair test
is by comparison, and the latest avail
able figures, compiled in March 1917,
are a good index as to the Production,
the Prolificacy, and the popularity Of
the Holstein as compared to the other
breeds.
Production includes both milk and
and butterfat production. One cannot
ignore either of these. Production is
the sole reason for the existence of the
dairy COW, and if it fails revenue stops.
Proficacy is the next important item.
A COW should produce a calf every
year. The largest item of profit in
many dairies is the revenue derived
from the sale of the young animals for
breeding purposes.
Popularity is the third important
factor. If there is no demand for your
heifers and bulls the ability of your
cows to reproduce themselves is of lit
tie benefit to you. You want animals
which you can sell with the least pos
sible trouble.
The following comparisons speak
for themselves. The averages for the
breeds are given, from the records
made under state supervision in every
case, and reported to the officials of
the Associations of the different
breeds. Lack of space prevents more
than two breeds being compared, the
Jersey and Holstein.

the number of future wars and dinin- ishing their area. But let Us never forget that any promise that such a league or other piece of machinery will definitely do away with war Is either sheer nonsense or rank hypoc- risy.
 Let us rest our strength on an army which shall consist not of a special caste, but of the people them selves; on an army produced by the universal obligatory training of all our young men sometime between the ages of 19 and 21.
 This is for the future. Our imme- diate duty is to win the war. We must speed up the war to the limit. We must try to finish it at the earli est possible moment, but be resolved to finish it, no matter how long it takes. We must insist on the peace of complete and overwhelming vic- tory. We must remember that huge army put in the field at one time will accomplish what the same num- Der of men put into the field in driblets can never accomplish. We have a much larger population and much greater natural resources than Germany or than France and Eng land com bined.
 Therefore by next spring we should have thousands of our own field guns, and scores of thousands of our own airplanes at the front, and an enormous ship tonnage in which to ferry across the ocean so many troops that by April we may have four mil lion trained fighting men at the front, not counting nOn-COmbatantS and re- serves. The age limits for the draft should be greatly increased and the exemptions greatly diminished"
 Colonel Roosevelt enumerated some of the industrial problems that must be solved. He advocated CO., operation among individuals and con- trol by the government to help bus mess men succeed but demanded a fair division of profits among all con- cerned. Workingmen, he said, should have their right insured to collective action, including collective bargain ing. In a very real sense, he said, they should be made partners in the business with a share in the profits and, at least along certain lines a share in the control. But there must be no limiting of production, no re- auction of the efficiency of the skill full and hardworking men to the plane of the shiftless and inefficient.
 Insuring the rights of the farmer, he declared, should be a cardinal fea- ture of the national policy. The far mer should be enabled to own his own farm. The national agricultural de- partment, he urged, should be com pletely reorganized and it's activities made more productive. Legislation
