or meat would be too costly. The ami
NAL husbandry division of the depart
ment of agriculture will answer re-
quests for information from persons
who desire to raise sheep, and has
number of publications on the subject
available for free distribution.
Sheep now cost approximately three
times as much as in normal times.
Good commercial sheep at present sell
for from $16 to 500 head.
In any sheep enterprise provision
must be made for the guarding or fenc-
ing in of the flock, for not only are the
animals prone to stray from home pas
lures, but they are favored prey for
dogs, which annually infiict great loss
es on the industry. Winter care must
be provided for, and feed and sheltered
quarters must be available i'm cold
weather. Persons who desire to raise
sheep are advised to enter the indus
try with a view of staying for several
years at least. The gross annual re-
turns from the ewes of breeding age
may be expected to range from IS to
SIS a head, depending upon the per-
centage of lambs raised the weight of
the fleece and the value of these prod
ucts. The fleece from one sheep av-
erages five to eight pounds and is now
selling for from 80 to So cents a pound.
The ewes with good management will
each raise a lamb. The lambs at five
months will weigh approximately 60
pounds and will be worth 10 cents a
pound and over. The useful life of a
sheep is about six years.
Flocks of sheep have been maintain.
ed in public parks in New York and
Boston, and a flock once was grazed
on the grounds around the Washington
monument in the capital. The use of
sheep in lawns and parks has been ex-
tensive in England. The labor-saving
value of sheep is important, for they
are neat and effective grass cutters.
Sometimes, too, they eat shrubbery and
flowers, but this danger can be met by
watchful shepherd or other safe
guards.

Germans Provoked Hoots by Populace

as Ardasheff styled himself, and was
lache played upon her fury. He also
enlisted the aid of the monarchists
because Ardasheff had once been open
ly bolshevistic.
Girl Begins Her Plotting.
Dagmnr resumed her calls on Arda-
shelf. Frequently at night her Iimou-
sine was seen to draw up under the
trees in front of his villa, until one
night when he came out with her and
they went riding together. He was
never seen alive again.
Last week a Russian living on the
Island Of Bollstanas, where Hadjet-
lache had his villa, informed the police
of mysterious nocturnal happenings.
There was a raid and so persons, in
Guiding the Cossack and his young
sweetheart, were lodged in Jail as a
result of the haul of evidence.
Lehrs denied knowledge of any
wrongdoings, but others confessed that
Ardasheff, after being lured to Hadjet-
lache's home, was bound and gagged
for twenty-six hours, tortured and
tainted and accused of treason to boil
shevism Meanwhile his home was be-
ing looted. Then Ardasheff's bonds
were cut and he was tried by court
martial" on treason charge. Twenty
men composed the court and their YER
dict was guilty.
Taken Before "Court- Martial"
But the Cossack was not satisfied.
He believed Ardasheff possessed a Sc
cret bank account and intended to get
1t. So the journalist was offered his
life If he would sign a blank check
Ardasheff signed.
Then, with a cigarette poised on her
smiling lips, Dagmar had her revenge.
Before her eyes a rope was thrown
around Ardasheff's neck and Hadjet-
Iache slowly strangled him to death.
The police say the girl helped place
the body in a sack, weight 1t with
rocks and throw it into the bay.
When the bay was dragged by the
police they recovered not only Arda-
sheff's body, with the cord still knotted
around the neck, but two others, which
were identified as those of the wrestler
Kalve and Polish Jew named Lee
witzki, who was known to have been
'in wrong" with the bolshevists in
Petrograd because of menshevistic
writings from his pen.
The police now claim to have learned
that Lewitzl1i was taking French les
sons from Dagmar, and that she lured
him, as well as her ex-sweetheart, to
the den of the Cossack.
But while the other prisoners are
signing confessions in the hope of re-
ceiving leniency, Hadjetlache, the Cos
sack, keeps his own counsel, refusing
even to deny his guilt. And Dagmar
lights one cigarette after another and
smiles at her jailers.

STANLEY STEAM
 !. STORAGE LINKED ID BANK ACCOUNT

"The steam storage in the Stanley boil CT has been likened to a bank account" l" says A. J. Bunch of the Bunch Morrow Motor Car company, Alabama distriN- utors of the Stanley steam car. Having first deposited the money. the owner may check against it, and although the pro- cess is less direct than to spend tho actual cash over the counter. it is safer, on the whole more convenient, and is pre- ferred.
 The Stanley, so to speak. has q reserve of cash on deposit. ready to be drawn out as needed. and does not spend .its revenue as soon as received, and lead a precarious hand-to-mouth existence. When. for example, the Stanley descends 8 grade, the operator has the satis- faction of knowing that closing ehe throttle merely cuts off the steam, not the fuel, and the boiler is storing en- ergy in anticipation of the next climb And he knows that the ability to draw on this deposit makes it unneessary to speed the car and rush the next hill which is always objectionable. often irf- convenient, and sometimes dangerous"
 Tt is rather a striking fact that the

REQ SPEED WAGONS ADVANTAGES SHOWN IN TALK BY AYERS

That truck users are more and more coming to select a truck to carry their average load rather than one big enough
The Birmingham age-herald., 1919-12-14

for their maximum load is the conclusion
 of P. H. Akers. sales manager of the
 Rec Motor Car company.
 There was time not SO long ago when
 the average buyer figured up the mig
 gest load that he would ever want to
 haul and then tried to buy truck big
 enough to carry it," says Mir. Akers.
 But the experienced user has come to
 realize that there is nothing so exs
 pensive as a truck carrying half load
 unless it is the truck which is so slow that it wastes the time of an expensive
 driver
 Few users have loads which cannot Sc split up into units of 2000 to 3000 pounds.
 When they have a truck which will handle a ton with maximum economy they have the most economical truck If
 the truck has real speed 1t will make tNo trips, while heavy truck Is making
 one, and handle the same tonnage in an hour. Of course 1t has lower first cost,
 and lower costs of operation and main tenance Its biggest savings over the heavy truck are on the occasions when the two-tonner must travel with half a load.
 "The fact that more trucks of three quarter ton rated capacity were sold dur
 ing the third quarter of this year than
 of any other type, and that Rec made
 alInOSt OA elAS7O e~e' NAAS SNAfo- put together, shows, I think, the trend
 of popular favor. Speed plus sturdiness plus reliability have won this leadership.
 "Reo speed wagons operate regularly over schedules requiring them to deliver loads of ton to ton and half at points 25 miles distant within an hour. And they keep to their schedules. l know of one speed wagon that has de- livered six tons of coal from car to dwelling house basement in an hour, and that in pinches has deffvered 50 tons Of coal in a day. That is what real speed in real truck makes possible.
 "A high-powered motor plus pneumatic tires makes it possible for this truck to venture where another would fail The coal delivery wagon I spoke of pulls up over lawns to basement windows where a heavy truck on solid tires would stick fast. It is this ability to negotiate soIt ground and rough going which mahds the speed wagon the ideal vehicle for l the farmer.
 Another advantage to be derived rom the use of pneumatic tires is the lessen | ing of the time required to return to the | loading point for another load. With solid tires. it is impractical for the truch to run at high rate Of speed even if Il were able to do so, as the vibration due | to the solid tires and the high rate ol speed would soon ruin the truck.

FAST NONSTOP RACE. RUN BY JOE BOYER IN
 WEST COAST RACES

The Thanksgiving Day speed event on the Pacific coast, the 5o-mile automobile race on the Ascot speedway at Los An geles, Cal, proved a victory for Joe Boyer and the Frontenac that had already won first place for him in two big races of the year at uniontown, Pa., and cin- cinnati.
 This inaugural race of the western rac- ing season saw field of F fast cars at the line for the start, including many of the drivers who are well known in western racing circles. Boyer drove a fast nonstop race and finished the 50 miles without a stop. His car was equipped all around with Goodyear cord tires. His time was fl minutes. 30 4-o seconds. average speed of 73 mines per hour for the entire distance.
 The race was a wonderful victory for the Frontenac car, as the first three to finish were of this make. Rosco Sarles won second prize, driving the same car with which Gaston Chevrolet lowered the worlds record for 150 miles at New York last September, and Joe Thomas piloting the Frontenac which has been Mulford. Art Kline at the wheel of the Peugeot finished fourth. Sarles also drove a nonstop on Goodyears.
 The Ascot race was not without its usual thrill. Ira vails Philbrin and Reeves Dutton's Stutz coilided, turned turtle and bounced off the track. Neither driver, however. was seriously hurt
 The next race at Los Angeles, which will be held December 25, will undoubt- edly be the farewell event on the old Ascot speedway, for the famous track is part of large tract of land that has been purchased by the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company of California A large plant is now being erected and soon the Ascot track will have to be torn down.
 A new speedway is being built for the Los Angeles Speedway association near Beverly. which will be completed by Feb ruary 1. It is now planned to hold the inaugural race on the new course on February 22.

BRITISH EXPORTS
 HOLDING UP WELL
All Previous Records Smashed Dur ing October in Spite of Rail-
 way Strike

London, December 5.-Reciprocal News Service. .)-British exports for October smashed all records for the year. in spite of the railway strike at the end of September and the beginning of Oc- tober, which was expected to affect the October trade returns
 Exports of British produce and manu- factures rose by almost f13,000,c00 (s5S, : 950 600 at $4.15 to the pounO over the September figures, re-exports of foreign and colonial merchandise by almost f4- 800, 900 ($18, ,675, ,000D. Despite e5,00O,00O (S20, ,750, ,000) rise in imports, therefore, the excess of imports over exports was re- duced by over 911 5000 (s47, ,7cS,000).
 The actual figures were: Exports, 879,- Os1, ,0oo (sS2e, ,103, ,150); re-exports 642OoO ($S1, ,5l4, 300; imports, s15S, S,4S6,o0o (s6S6, 966, ,900).
 Excess of imports over exports, a54, 800. : 600 (s227, APO, ,0o0).
 The American Chamber of Commerce in London points out that the increased imports were mainly of raw materials; food, drink and tobacco. Imports of manu- factured articles fell by over 91,250,- OO0 ($5, ,1S7, ,5O0). Wood. timber, wool. oils. seeds, fats and rubber, accounted for the increase in raw materials. although
The Birmingham age-herald., 1919-12-14

cotton dropped s.5 per cent in quantity and Al per cent in value.
 Manufactured articles, while showing the greatest decrease in imports showed also the greatest increase in British ex- ports, good omen for British produc- tion. The increase was over E2S, 60. 90 (s1lT, ,569 5oo). accounted for largely by cot ton yarns and manufactures silks, wor- steds and woolens. Iron and steel man. ufactures and machinery also advanced Coal, coke and manufactured fuel fell by l2i 900 tons in quantity, but rose By over E4,00O0Oo C$16.600.o00 in value.
 The last item is an interesting com ment on the coal famine in Europe In October, Britain exported, in round num- bers the same amount of coal as m September. but got e9o0,0oO (SS. 7sELOcs1 more for it, the average price per ton ris- ing from 57 shillings (s11.S2) to sS shil- 1ings (S13.07) These prices are free on board" and do not include the heavy freights paid to the ports of destination. The importance and value of Britain s coal trade was never more clearly dem onstrated.
 Reviewing the first 10 months of the year. the American Chamber of Com, merce says that imports have totaied el. .3i9 GOO GOO C$5. .47s S5O, ,000); aggregate ex- ports eTss No0 OO0 (Ss.06 700 OO0): adverse trade balance, e5S1, ,00o,o00 (s2,411 ,150. .o0cI. On this basis the adverse trade balance for the year is expected to be consider ably short of sf00, 900 Cs2, ,sO5, ,00O, ,OO0). Against this will apply Britain's "invis- ible exports" which are estimated by a leading British bank at s5so, ,000.000 (t2- 407, ,0oo, ,O00), consisting of returns from in- vestments abroad, freight charges, insiir- ance profits banking charges, commits sions etc. The net adverse trade bal ance for the year on that basis, leaving out all questions of interest on war in- debtedness between Great Britain and her allies, would figure at e120,oOO,00o (s49s GOO. .Ooo). as compared with favorable pre-war balance of 922s 900 (ssS7, 300, GOO.
