AUSTRIA MUST PAY INTEREST.

The hope of Austria that it might escape pay.
mert Of the heavy interest due March has been
dispeIed by the supreme council of the peace con-
ference, which has decided that the money must
be paid.
This action followed report before the coun-
Gil by Sig. Crespi, of Italy, on behalf of the
interallied financial commission, who pointed out
that there are funds in Austro- Hungarian banks
to make the payment, but expressed fear that
such payment might create kind of precedent
that could later be used against the different
states Of the former Austro- Hungarian empire.
The Czecho Slovaks and others Of the politi-
cal units that now are independent saw in the
use of these funds possible inference that they
might continue to be obligated to an allegiance
which they had renowned and they appealed to
the interallied financial commission for q ruling
on that point. This has resulted in assurances
sent to the different states formerly part of
Austria Hungary that the use Of this common
fund in the payment Of the interest on the war
debt would not be construed as obligating them
for the future and the telegram to be sent to
Vienna stated that the payments made on the
coupons will not affect the apportionment of the
Austro- Hungarian debt among the various states
Of the old monarchy.
It is understood that the present action of the
allies in authorizing the payment Of the interest
was due to desire not to aggravate the finan-
cial difficulties of Austria and the various other
nationalities formerly under the dual monarchy.

BALKAN QUESTION THREATENS.

0ALAAN QOChOA AOIN An1SC<AAc14N0e
The Balkan question continues threatening
breaker in the path Of the peace conference.
Difficulty is certain to be experienced in re-
conciling the bitterness which Serbia holds to-
ward Bulgaria. The latter country would seek
admittance to the Jugo-Slav federation, but
Serbia is strongly opposed to such program.
Democratic leaders are now in control Of the Bull
garian government and it was hoped their plan
to unite Macedonia, Thrace and the Dobrogea as
parts Of Bulgaria in the proposed greater Jugo-
Slavia would pacify Serbia, but the little country
which has suffered so greatly at the hands of
the Bulgars is obdurate.
Bulgaria is sending strong commission to
France for the purpose of presenting Bulgaria's
case to the peace conference. AS evidence of
good faith, it will present proposal expressing
the willingness of King Boris to abdicate if he
will be permitted to become democratic citizen
and not forced into exile.
France and England are very desirious of
clearing the Balkan matter on basis which will
permit all of the countries to preserve their ma
tional character and have independence Of rule
within their own boundaries. No other plan
would create harmony among the turbulent peo-
pie who comprise the Balkan States and it will
require most skillful and delicate diplomacy to
bring the conflicting interests together in peace
full understanding.

More Importance would attach to the investi-
cation Of the alien property custodian demanded
by Senator Frelinhuysen if it originated from
different source
Doesn't that name rather link up with some
very active German propaganda recently ex-
posed. and isn't there a connection, though re-
mote, between the name and some business
property which was turned over to A. Mitchell
Palmer's department?
OF course, the New Jersey senator's motives.
in starting the investigation are above re-
proach. And he probably has no connection with
the brewery combine which tried SO hard to
hinder Americas war preparation. But the aver
age person will continue to wonder how it hap
pened that he is the one man to find serious
faults in the Palmer administration.

BEGIN TO RENEW FORESTS
England and Scotland Have Already
Started to Replace Trees Cut
Down During the War.

England and Scotland are preparing
to provide war supplies. They are not
waiting until peace is concluded, but
are doing it now. Never before have
those countries been so bare Of timber.
Hunting ranges and sporting grounds
have been sacrificed to supply NUM-
ton factories at home end armies
abroad. The old forests were pri-
marily ornamental and incidentally
useful, but those which are now be-
Ing provided for will be iJrimarily use
full and incidentally ornamental, Says
Robert H. Moulton In Popular Mechan-
les Magazine.
In the United States we are not in
so much need of tree planting as they
are in the British isles But there are
two kinds of timber which the war
demand has greatly depleted, and
they are kinds Of much Importance
locust and black walnut.
There Is another point to be consid-
cred In the planting Of these trees !:
They can be grown on sandy tracts Of
land which are now considered of no
value, and thus reclaim the land.
An excellent illustration of what can
be accomplished in the way of reclaim
ing useless land through the planting
of trees has been carried out during
the last six or eight years by res
ident of Whiteside county, Illinois. In
these years he has accomplished the
seemingly impossible task of turning
some 70 acres of sand. formerly as bar
rem as the desert of Sahara, into a
fiourishing forest Nor is that all;
for this forest. acting as sand bind
err, has been the means of saving other
fertile acres from the inroads of the
drifting sand. and the total result be
ing that the farm has increased sew
eral times In value. The sandy tracts,
which, before being planted to trees,
were practically worthless, are now
worth anywhere from $50 to 800 an
acre.

The brooder should not be over
crowded with chicks.
The best food for young ducklings
Is stale bread and skinned sweet milk.
Overlooking the young chicks is like
ly to be INDUCED in by many, especial
Iy the beginners.
Feed chicks lightly until they are
eight or ten weeks of age. After that
they can be forced.
Good healthy chicks can be raised
by properly taking care of the hen and
chicks or of the brooder.
It is in warm weather that lice and
mites thrive on the chickens; they viii
cause little chickens to die.
At the present prices Of fertilizer
it pays every farmer and poultryman
to save the poultry manure.
Always have your coops and brood
ers perfectly dry. A good litter for
chicks to scratch in is cut clover or
alfalfa or the chaff from the barn floor.
If the chicks are kept free of vermln
and are kept out of the rain and dew.
they will grow fast and will be but
little trouble as the weather will be
warm most of the time.

ter results will be secured If these eggs
are turned carefully every day. Do
not keep them over ten days or two
weeks before putting them in the in

Before setting up the incubator give

Remove all the trays and scrub them
with hot soapsuds. After they have
dried brush the entire inside of the in

to see that there are no cobwebs or

have not been used for mice nests in

remove the old wick from the burner
and boil the burner in a soda solution
for Is or 20 minutes. Run the incu-

the incubator five days, test the eggs
and remove those that are infertile.

There was no response to this. The

painfully upwards by means of the
most uncanny. animal-like strength
and stealth.

left his side until the family luminous
