He circled around his adversary who
displayed cleverness several times
and and finally outmaneuvered him,

was invisible to his opponent. He
darted down on the German plane, his
machine gun rafting out fusillade
of bullets. The German machine.

TEuTONIC RULERS
SELECT MONARCHS

Wilhelm and Charles Pick Kings for
Lithuania, courland, Esthonia
and Poland.
London, May 1.-THE Austrian and
German emperors at their meeting at
German great headquarters, German
newspapers say, according to an Elk
change telegraph dispatch from Copen-
hagen, selected monarchs for Lithu-
ania, Courland, Nthonia and Poland.
Much interest is displayed in Allied
capitals as to the meeting between
the German and Austrian emperors
and their diplomatic military assist
ants and especially in the truth be-
hind the apparently purposely vague
official statement on its results.
That a more firm alliance between
the two countries has been cemented
is certain, and it is believed Austria
Hungary has been forced to make up
for her delinquencies as an ally of
Germany by getting deeper into the
power Of the stronger nation.

The extended planting Of field beans
this year in order to Increase the supply
next fall is being urged by A. G.. Army,
crop specialist of the division Of agron.
omy at the Minnesota experiment sta
ton. The United States does not pro-
duce enough to supply its demands.
Light soils, the sandy loans
are best suited to beans. In the
regular rotation, beans should take part
Of the space reserved to corn and pota-
toes. Clover sod plowed in the fall is
an ideal soil.
Small navy beans command the high
est market price and less seed is re-
quired to the acre. Only choice, hand
selected seed should be used. From 80
to IS pounds of seed of the smaller va
rieties, and from 60 to IS pounds of the
larger varieties are used to the acre.
Land plowed in the fall should be
thoroughly. worked again in the spring.
Early and constant cultivation before
the seed is sown will help reduce the
wedding later.
From May 20 to June 10, depending
upon the latitude, is the usual time for
planting. Under average conditions in
the humid regions, beans should be
planted one and one-half or two inches
deep. The highest yields at University
Farm have been obtained where the
beans were drilled in rows "a inches
apart, with the plants approximately 4
inches apart in tho rows. Only such
cultivation should be given as is need
ed to keep the soil mellow and the crop
free from weeds.
