DAIRY COW IS ECONOMICAL

Humans, and Turns Them into
Food Material.

Two facts stand out prominently as
reasons for the increased production
and use Of milk. The first is that
milk as purchased on the market
usually supplies food material together
with the growth-producIng elements
more economically than either meat
or eggs. The second reason Is that
the dairy COW is the most economical
producer Of animal food. One great
law OF food conservation Is to turf
inedible feeds into edible foods In
the cheapest possible manner The

not so efficient as the dairy COW.

Spring Is the desirable time of year
for the improvement of pastures.
Large areas Of permanent pasture
would respond to proper methods Of
improvement which might include the
following:
Keep the pastures clean BY cutting
of brush. briars and weeds. Large
stumps, stones and dead trees should
also be removed.
Those areas used for pasture that
would permit narrowing and disking
at the time of reseeding. applying
lime. fertilizers and manure. etc. may
be greatly benefited. In some sections
terracing may be practiced with satis-
factory results.
The application Of lime. acid phos-

tility.
Reseeding, particularly in bare
spots. is to be recommended. White

grass. carpet grass and blue grass in
favored sections are commonly used.
As rule reseeded pastures should be
lightly grazed the first year. At all

GERMANY AWAKENS
 ID TREATY'S TERMS

BERLIN Wednesday, May The official circles in Berlin learned the probable terms of peace this morning and a lengthy session of the cabinet followed, at which the action Germany is to take was discussed. It was con- sidered in some quarters that Count won Brockdorf-R -Rantzau would refuse to sign the peace treaty and resign, but the opinion is general that Ger many must accept, since she is help less.
 The resignations of the foreign mir ister would only delay a settlement or the question, for if the cabinet left office with him, independents, it is be- lieved, would surely take up their po- sitions and their first act would be to accept the terms.
 A translation of the text of the treaty is expected to reach Weimar, Friday morning. Only brief extracts of the document can be wired by the correspondents, owing to lack of tele- graphic facilities. Meanwhile the press and public are discussing the forecast of the terms received from London by way of Amsterdam.
 The first newspaper in Berlin to publish the forecast headed it Ger many's end as a great power" The Tageblatt says the size of the German army can only be decided by the league of nations, and that it will be irnpos- sible to pay one billion pounds sterling as indemnity. The newspaper calls the decision with regard to the Sarre region hardly disguised annexation and says that it cannot be accepted. The Danzig solution also is declared to be unacceptable. The decision as to Germany's former colonies is arous- ing protests.

BRITISH AMERICAN
 PR0TECTIONMO ID ] FRANCE THAN TREATY
rRepublican A. p. Leased Wirel

PARIS, May S.-The engagement for joint action by the United States and Great Britain to assist France in ease of unprovoked attack, excited greater interest and satisfaction in French official and military quarters than 6he treaty. 1t is understood to have been the elimination of confer mlces held by Premier Clemenceau and Marshal FOch. The latter took the ad- vanccd military view of complete de- fensive protection and the premier sought 10 reconcile this with the more moderate view in the conference and emphasized the difficulties attendant upon joint action by the United States and Great Britain The announcement of the proposed joint action by those 7grb countries has the effect of harmon izfng the views of NJ. Clemenceau and Marshal Foch on the adequacy of French security against Germany.
 Several plans for joint military ac- ton by the United States, Great Brit scin and France were considered before the present proposal was adopted. The first plan was to secure joint action finder the covenant of the league of nations, which provides that the league dotncil will determine what military anG naval action should be taken against states breaking the covenant It was believed that the council under this authority could decide upon joint action by the United States, Great Britain and France as a precautionary measure to prevent resumption of war fare on the part of Germany. This plan was abandoned for the present Engagement, which is the form of a letter to be submitted to the United States and British parliament It is understood that the letter requires ap- proval by the United States senate, ir order to make the pledge effective, anc # this approval is given by resolution or otherwise, the engagement would then be submitted for approval to tho league of nations council
 Those close to President Wilson u9a5utain the engagement is not an al. lance and therefore not inconsistent with the principles of the league O nations. They say it is a temporary means of assuring French security un- th the league is fully established anC able to make France secure. It is ex pected the provision that the United States shall immediately come to tn, assistance of France in case of unpro. vphed aggression, win involve consid erdtion by the United States congress. of a plan for sufficient army to per. Hrit Fimmediate" action without await. ing the creation of an army, and tn, forwarding Of large forces as an ex- peditlon to France after such aggres- sion occurs.
