dent Wilson delivered heavy blow to all
German peace feelers by declaring that there
could be no thought Of a peace which did moi
mean the utter destruction Of military autocracy
or its reduction to virtual impotence.
Although his speech was delivered to small
gathering, it has by today been read as an
ehulgent document OF true words, well said
throughout the length and breadth Of the civi-
lied world. The President renewed his "force
without stint or limit declaration Of few
weeks ago by declaring that There could be
but one issue. The settlement must be final.
There can be no compromise. No halfway
decision would be tolerated. No halfway de-
cision would be conceivable. These are the
ends for which the associated peoples of the
world are fighting and which must be conceded
them before there can be peace:
!. The destruction Of every arbitrary
power anywhere that can separately, Sc
creteIy and Of its sing lie choice disturb the
peace of the world or, if it cannot be pre-
senty destroyed. at the least its reduction
to virtual impotence.

governed in their conduct toward each

Of respect for the common law of civilized

opinion to which all must submit and by
which every international readjustment
that cannot be amicably agreed upon by
the peoples directly concerned shall be
sanctioned"
These great ends can be realized only by ihe
determination Of what the thinking peoples d
the world desire, with their longing hope fol
Justice and for social freedom and opportunity.
Nh. Wilson says what we seek is the reign
Of law, based upon the consent Of the governed

KEEP YOUNG HORSE GROWING
Good Practice, When Not Carried to

Colts that are kept growing make
the best horses. Some farmers allow
their young horses to trough it"
through the winter and. although this
is good practice when not carried to
extremes, If the feeder Is not careful
1t may give the colt q setback which
permanently retards its development.
Feeds that will promote growth
should be supplied. Good, clean clover
hay Is palatable and slightly laxative.
Timothy hay commonly is fed. Well
cured alfalfa hay free from dust is one
Of the best roughages for growing, but
because of its relatively high protein
content it generally is economical to
supplement 1t with other roughage such
as timothy, mixed hay, or corn fodder.
Besides lending variety to the ration
such method Of feeding alfalfa would
onset any likelihood of kidney or
be used to good advantage to supple
ment other roughage. The animals
should not be allowed to gorge them
selves on dry feed. They should be
given only what they will clean up
readily, but at the same time enough
feed should be supplied. Oats. corn
and peas, preferably fed ground. are
suitable grains. Bran, oil meal or glu-
ten feed will add protein and lend vari-

fed to foals. Appropriate grain ra-
lions for the first winter are: Two
parts corn. five parts oats. three parts
bran and one part oil meal; or four
parts oats, one part corn and one part
bran.
Silage should not be fed to foals to
any considerable extent. Sliced roots,
such as carrots and sugar beets, are
very palatable and have a cooling ef-

quantity of feed generally should be

and the annual, welcome guest Of new
spring millinery Is on. Nothing stales
its perennial interest-we discover the
new styles with as much Joy as II they
were a gold mine each season. This
zest Is merited by the new hats; they
are in reality as fine from every stand
point as any within the memory of the
Oldest milliner. There Is variety with

Ginghams and percales in an array
