MAY BE MADE A Trunk LINE TOO

Columbia may have another main
trunk line railroad. According to a
story in the Birmingham News, plans
are being prepared by officials of the
Louisville & Nashville railroad to
build another trunk line, the new line
to be an extension Of the present Co
lumbia and Florence branch to Bir-
mingham. This would give BirminS
ham a direct route to Florence and
quicker connections to Memphis. It
would mean that the people of Colum

The people of Florence are enthusi-
astically at work for the project and

TREATY DEFEAT
GREAT CALAMITY
FORMER AMBASSADOR TO lTALP
SAYS DEFEAT is lMMEASUR-
ABLE MISFORTUNE.
WE MUST INCREASE ARMAMENT
Says Europe Is in a Condition Border
ing on Chaos, and That order Will
Probably Not Be Restored for Sew
eraI Years More.
BY THOMAS NELSON PAGE.
(Former Ambassador to Italy, Writ

Dy TlohAO INEbooN L
(Former Ambassador to Italy, Writ
ten for the United Press.)
WASHINGTON, Nov. pa consid-
er defeat of the peace treaty as an i'm
measurable misfortune. Those who
have defeated it have assumed the
most terrible responsibility which
any men have assumed in our time.
It's effect must be to plunge Europe
into even deeper chaos, from which
America can hardly escape entirely.
Those who were most against the
treaty and league of nations were the
Germans, the extreme Sim Feiners,
the I. w. w. and the Bolshevists.
Those who have just killed the trea-
ty, however sincere their motives,
have given these cause for great re-
ioicing.
No one maintains that the treaty or
the league is perfect. But every one
knows in his heart that it was bet
ter treaty than was hoped for one
year ago. Just one year ago and lit
tie more, America and the whole
world were holding their breath at
what was happening in France. We
were vowing to God that if peace was
vouchsafed us, that thing which was
destroying the world and had already
swept away so many millions Of men,
should never come again, The ruins
of France and Italy are still smoking.
Our men were dying by thousands in
the Argonne and along other fronts to
save the world, and 1t was saved.
Today | am asked what will be the
probable effect in Europe of the de-
feat of the peace treaty by the Ameri-
can senate.
Europe is in condition bordering
on chaos and this is not likely to bring
order there. The first thing will be
Germanys relief from the exactions
of the treaty. Can it be that she now
will put forth her efforts to pay the
great reparation amount imposed upon
her unless indeed she recognizes that
the present situation offers the unex
pected chance for her to conquer the
world once more, commercially? II
not this, then the result must and
probably will be in any event, re-estab
lishments of great ornaments.
The league of nations, having been
repudiated by us, the result is clear
to us. 1t means that we must inaugu
rate here great armament. We, Ger
many and China alone stand outside
of the league which at present consti
tutes a sort of inchoate alliance of
those who have entered it.
The present situation as | see it
is that we have had a chance to es-
cape from being overwhelmed in
what threatened to be a universal del
uge and the senate has thrown ii
away. We must now find some other
ark of safety.
The chief builder of the ark that
promised to us rescue worked him
self to death to save US. And it looks
as though those who were not called
to help build the ark have sunk it.
What will they give US in its place

IOWA CATTLE TO URUGUAY.
Story County Breeder Receives Order
For Two Valuable Animals.

Ames, Ia.-About a year ago a
number of men from far Uruguay
came to America. They came to in
Ispect the cattle of this country, much
as men would be sent out from the
agricultural department OF the Ames
institution, were they in the market
for the present breed of cattle.
While the committee from Uruguay
was in this country they paid a visit
to the farm of Carl RosenIeld, down
near Kelley. They made thorough
inspection of his herd and at the time
seemed to think they had found just
what their country was needing.
There was no purchase at the time.
Several months ago Mr.. Rosenfeld
received a letter with the foreign
postmark and asking him the price
on two animals. he to make the Sc
lection and forward them 10 Uruguay
as soon as possible.
Mr.. Resented selected two animals
a bull, less than a year old, and
heifer, also a yearling. These have
been shipped to Uruguay and they
have been priced at $4,000 for the
bull calf and $3.50 for the heifer.
1t is not many people who secure
orders in such a manner from for
eign countries. While here the dele
gates were greatly pleased with the
Rosenfeld herd, and it is evident that
when they returned to their own
country, they made report that has
met with favor Of the men in charge
of affairs in the country and the mat
ter of purchasing Angus cattle has
been left to them and the feast of
the eyes on the Rosenfeld herd has
caused them to make their purchases
here.
The two animals will travel in
state for they were shipped by ex-
press and are now on their way.

At our home in the west end of

only eight weeks old that is mother
ing four baby chicks, and she does
it in way that would be a good
example to the biddies of matured
age. 1t was necessary to take the
chicks from their mother on account
of her rough tactics, she having kill
ed a number of her brood; so they
were put in pen by themselves and
the little hen placed with them on
account of the older chickens having
made life uncomfortable for her. She
Immediately took to the little ones
and now she scratches for them, they
follow her about and at night she
makes an attempt to cover them
with her body and wings. AS stated,
this hen is but eight weeks old and
it is sight worth seeing to watch
her looking after her adopted little
ones.-Tripoli Leader.

Iowa Boy "Threshed" i'm France

Iowa Boy "Threshed" i'm France.
An Iowa boy, who spent last har-
vest season as soldier. in France,
tells Of an interesting experience he
had over there last summer while
helping thresh wheat. Volunteers
were asked for, and he decided to
help with the work, since he had had
experience with threshing at home.
Imagine the surprise of the boys
when they found threshing ma
chine about the size of small
American hand corn shelter with a
crank on both sides! With two men
working up speed CD at the cranks
a woman "fed" small punches of
wheat into the machine. The grain
and chaff fell below to be famed and
separated later and every straw was
carefully gathered up and tied by
hand into small bundles. With good
luck 10 to Is bushels of wheat could
be threshed every day! AS one drives
through the country at this season
OF the year and sees the farmers
threshing their large fields of grain
by the use of modern machinery, one
cannot help wondering what an Iowa
farmer would do if all his grain had
to be threshold through coffee mill.
