Over the Ex-Kaise1

Paris, Sept. 16.-Premier Lloyd
George is determined to have it set
tied that the peace conference de-
mand from Holland the handing over
of former Emperor William, accord
ing to LIE Journal today. The news
paper asserts that the premier, who

former German emperor, ''for a
supreme offense against interna-
tional morality and the sanctity Of

taken as part payment for the loss OF

RESPONSIBLE for the death of his WIFE,
having made it necessary for him to
him to leave her when she was III
feeble health.
Norton with other members OF his
company was in dug out when n, tne
Germans came over on raid. They
massed at the mouth of the dugout
and dared the Americans to come
forth. The Americans, led by Nor

German officer who fell before the
bullet from Norton's pistol. For ms
action that day, he was given the
medal for bravery by his own gov

But the accumulation Of honors
and the acclaim Of admirers some
how lacks the sweet taste which i
might have had. and not perhaps
until Sergeant Norton goes home
home to the little town in Arlzon;
and stands with bowed head by tn
side of grave in the quiet Of thu
cemetery there, will he feel the re
compense which comes to the rea

on farms where there is no ice house.
The mild character of the early part
of the winter, of course, has made the
'ptential supply of ice less than usual,
,'ut the actual supply-much greater
than will be gathered-is adequate for
all needs. 1t is not necessary that ice
be of any particular thickness. Six
inch ice is desirable, but it is not es-
sential. Four-inch or even three-inch
ice will serve every purpose that
thick 8: ice could be made to serve.
And il does not require weather very
cold and long-continued to put a three
or four-inch coat over the pond
The department of agriculture rec
ommends neighborly cooperation in
ice harvesting. Two, three, or more
families Joining forces and using the
same pend or stream, if convenient
can do the work much more easily and
eXpeditiouSly than the working force
of one farm alone ordinarily can do
it. Also, when done by two or more
families jointly, ice harvesting par
takes OF the nature of u picnic and
the work is done without ANYBODY
thinking of it as disagreeable task.
The cutting of ice is very simple
operation. The method recommended
by the department of agriculture Is
to mark off the pond in rectangular
figures of convenient size, then to saw
out strip from shore to shore and
force it under the ice, leaving an opep
channel to the bank. Pieces as large
as "an be handled are then sawed out
on either side, pulled ashore by men
with ice hooks or by horse on the
bank, then loaded On the wagon or
sled.
The method of storing varies. If
the ice is 10 be stored in a properly
constructed ice house with commercial
insr'atioE, little packing is needed. If
4 house hot equipped with commercial
insulation, or some other makeshift
storage space is used. the ground
should be covered with IL inches of
sawduS; Or planing-mill shavings be-
fore the Ice is put in. A 12-inch space
should be left between the ice and the
walls and should be tightly filled in
with s;,wdust or shavings, and a cover
ing of is inches of Sawdust or shay
inss should be placed over the ice.
Planing-mll shavings are preferable
to sawdust, being more absorbent and
not so much inclined to pack Whether
sawdust or shavings are used. care
must be taken that the material is
thoroughly dry.
