Paris, Feb. 10-The week which re-
mains of President Wilson's visit will
be more important in many respects
than any similar period since his ar
rival in Europe. He will return to
America with the draft of the con-
stitution of the league of nations APP
proved and needing only it's inclusion
in the formal peace treaty to become
efective-that is, of course, if the
Senate authorizes the ratification sef
the treaty. But other matters of con,
siderable moment remain to be dis
posed of before the President leaves,
and everything goes to show that he
will have one Of the busiest periods
in his career before he starts for
Brest, where the George Washington
is waiting to take him home.
While the league of nations is the
Presidents own particular favorite
among several things he has sought
to accomplish in the course of his
stay in Paris, his interest and that
of most of>the American official con-
tingent is very deep in the arrange
terms. Incidental to this extension
is the matter of economic conditions
in Germany, which Americans regard
as of the utmost consequence in the
effort to bring the world back to
normal.
Their view differs from that of
certain other peace representatives,
notably the French, whose desire is
that Germany receive little if any
consideration until her delegates ap-
pear at Versailles to sign the peace
treaty. Then, according to the
French view, the Germans should be
informed that the concessions for
which they are now importunate will
be granted if they adopt all the con-
ditions of peace upon which the in
terallied peace conference has previ-
ously agreed. The American view,
which is shared wholly or in part by
the British, is that something should
be done in Germany's behalf. The
first thing necessary in the opinion of
the American and British plenipoten-
tiaries is modification of the block
ade so as to permit the importation
into Germany of commodities from
Holland, including supplies imported
into Holland from other countries.
A dispute over this proposal in the
interallied blockade commission, of
which Vance Mccormick is chairman,
caused the commission to lay the case
before the supreme war council. Out
of this situation grew Saturdays ac-
ton of the war council in adopting
the resolution of President Wilson
creating a supreme economic council
to consider the non-military matters
hereafter adopted by the permanent
armistice commission, Of which
Marshal Foch is president. The
economic council is virtually superior
to the arristice commission, whose
powers are still further curtailed by
adding civilians to it's membership,
with the right given to report
directly to the supreme economic
council.

HOMEMADE DEVICES COOL
KITCHENS.

1t is cooler in 10345 Southern
kitchens this summer, for that many
housekeepers in the South have made
freless cookers and iceless refrigerat-
ors with the aid of the home demon
station agents during the past year.
This number includes only thost
taught directly by the extension
workers. 1t is impossible to estimate
how. many learned from their neigh
bors how to make and use their hot
weather comforts.
Southern women in home clubs
during 1918 made and installed alto
gether 1894 devices for saving la
Dor and improving sanitary condi-
tons. Of this number, 6,837 were
fireless cookers, 3,5O8 iceless refrig-
orators, 1898 fly traps, IA, 343 fly
screens, 1,764 improved ironing
boards, All wheel serving trays, 1877
shower baths, 864 kitchen cabinets,
985 water systems installed, 615
driers for home use, and 14,178 9TH
er labor saving devices, because they
had learned through demonstrations
of their value. This number includ-
ed water Gamers. steam pressure
cookers, lighting plants, and various
other articles which make for the
comfort and health of the home The
clubs organized through the efforts
of the United States Department of
Agriculture, and the state colleges
are schools of instruction in family
betterment and community welfare,
clearing houses of neighborhood
knowledge, and public exchanges
where patterns, magazines, recipes,

The season during which bobolinks
may be shot varies. 1t runs from
September l to October 30, inclus-
i've, for the States of New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland,
and the District of Columbia, and
from August 16 to November Is, in
elusive, for the States of Virginia,
North Carolina, South Carolina,
Georgia, and Florida Birds killed
may be used as food by the persons
shooting them or may be transport
ed to hospitals or other charitable in
stitutions for use as food, but must
not be sold or shipped for purposes
of sale or be destroyed or wantonly
wasted.
This bird ranges in migration from
Canada to Paraguay. 1t is a high
Iy esteemed songster in the Northern
States, where it nests and where 1t
is known as the bobolink.
In addition, its food habits in its
breeding range are distinctly in
the birds favor. 1t begins to be
somewhat of a pest, however, in the
Middle Atlantic States, where it is
known as the reedbird. 1t reaches
the rice fields about August 20, when
the rice is in the milk, and over
runs the fields. From then until the
ricebird departs for its winter home
in South America the planter is con-
stantly worried by its ravages. A
loss of 10 per cent of the crop in the
areas affected is common, despite all
efforts at soaring them away.
