TREATY OF PRAGUE, 1866.
Another Adjustment of Austrian and prussian Affairs.

Austria and Prussia having obtain
ed the joint possession of Schleswig-
Holstein by the treaty of Vienna, the
question now arose what should be
done with 1t. The two powers who
had overcome Denmark argued over
the division Of the spoils for nearly
two years. The question itself might
have been settled, but it was only a
symptom of a larger question which
had for centuries been ~agitating Ger
many, the question as to whether the
northern section or the southern sec
ton should predominant; and Bis
marck saw in 1t an excuse for driving
Austria forever out of a participation
in German affairs-the only way by
which Prussia could be made supreme.
Austria began to see that she had
been made a cats paw and favored
the claims Of the young duke Of Aug
ustenburg to the sovereignty Of the
duchies, that young man having set
I'D q court at Kiel. In fact King Will
liam and the Prussian parliament were
inclined to favor the dukes preten-
sions. But Bismarck carried every
thing before him and caused the king
to set up a claim to be by descent en-
titled to the throne Of the duchles him
self. The time for a breach with Aus.
trla, however, had not yet arrived. Won
Moltke reported that the Prussian
army was ready but Bismarck desired
to assure the help, or at least the neu-
trality Of the great powers before he
struck. He went personally to Bar
ritz and had a series Of interviews
with Napoleon III. What dreams he
encouraged the emperor in, what he
promised him and what he showed him
by way Of argument, are only sur
misses.
Demands Of Bismarck.
In December, 1854, Bismarck de-
cIared that Prussia would be satisfied
with nothing less than the incopora-
tion Of the duchies in her military,
commercial and postal systems. In
the duchies the Austrians were EN-.
barked on a policy Of obstruction and
the stolen land was in disorder. King
william wrote to the Austrian emperor
that If Austria did not take steps tc
preserve order in the duchles he would

prepared by the United States Depart

As a supplement to co-nmeal for
growing and fattening pigs the Wis
consin station found that ground soy
beans proved about 10 per cent SUI
perior to wheat middlings, figuring the
cost of the feeds as the same. The In
diana station compared rations of two
parts of cofnmeal and one part of
sOy-bean meal with cornmeal and
wheat middlings in equal proportions
and with five parts of cornmeal and
one part of tankage for pork produc-
ton. The soy-bean ration produced
the largest daily gains, and this with
the smallest quantity of feed con-
sumed for each pound of gain. The
Kansas station has tested the value
of soy-bean meal In combination with
cornmeal and with kafr meal in COM
parison with the two latter feeds
alone in feeding hogs. The feeds were
mixed in the proportion of four-fifths
corn or kafir and one-fifth soy beans.
Larger gains, varying from Ii to 81
per cent, were made In every case on
the mixed rat:ons than on corn or
kafir alone. The Missouri station In
comparative feeding trial Of soy
bean meal with linseed meal and tank
age showed that the three feeds were
equally effective in promoting the
growth of young hogs.

More than two million American sol
diers crossed the Atlantic that they
might help fight the battle of civiliZa-
ton and defeat the selfish ambitions
of the people of the German nation.
/ crossed the ocean in a convoy which
carried some thirty thousand of these
men, and for nearly fourteen days 1t
was my privilege to share with them
the dangers of the sea and the dam
gers of the German submarines. / saw
these men crowded into the hold of
small ships that they might the more
quickly go to the rescue of that civiii-
zation for which we were fighting;
saw them as they were tossed about
by the terrific seas driven by gales that
reached maximum of 100 miles an
hour; I saw them die of exposure as
the seas beat In upon them; saw their
bodies consigned to the waters Of the
broad Atlantic; in the convoy with
which I CROSSED one of the ships went
down in the storm, carrying with it
nearly five hundred of these Ameri-
can soldiers.
And these things happened lecause
the German people had run amuck,
driven TO it by a selfish ambition for
world domination and loot.
Are these people to escape just
retribution? Are they to escape pay
ment?

Milk produced by 5,5S7 COWS in 40
cow-testing associations, averaged in
year PAT pounds of butterfat per
COW. This is considerably above the
average production of all the dairy
cows in the United States, which is
estimated at 160 pounds Of butterfat
a year. A study OF the records of the
associations showed that the produc-
ton of $50 pounds of butterfat year
gave an increase of $23 over cost of
feed while the average income over
cost of feed from cows that produced
PAT pounds was SAT, or little more
than twice as much.
Though the dairymen who join cow
testing associations are thought to be
more progressive than the average,
dairy specialists in the United States
department of agriculture say, the
fine showing made by the cows in as
sociationS must be credited, in large
measure, to association work.
Certainly the contrasting associa-
lions return many dollars more than
they cost. 1t is encouraging, they say,
to know that the contrasting associa-
ton records show that the large-pro-
ducing dairy cows are the least af-
fected by the increased cost of feeds.
Therefore, every dairyman should aim
to keep all his good cows, or to place
them where they will continue the
economical production of human food.
This economical production can be
obtained not only through careful Sc
lection of dairy cattle and skillful
feeding, but through intelligent breed
ing.
While the contrasting association
gives its members aid in each of these
three essentials, it is particularly
beneficial in promoting better breed
ing. This is very marked swhen the
members also belong to a bull asso-
citation. Not every dairy farmer can

of tying the cows aids greatly in com

method is by a water cup which is

The Many Mysteries

You can take an onion seed and a pansy

odor, and in the other you get a flower OF
rare beauty. You can plant a poppy seed
and get opium Ia dangerous, habit-forming

get something that helps constipation. No
scientist, living or dead, can explain these
mysteries of Nature. Behind the invisible
life germ in each seed is hidden the deep
secret that nobody understands. Every
thing growing out Of the ground seems in

The German people have stolen from
Belgium and France much of the ma
chinery and other valuable and port

by the French and Belgian employers,
who have been put out of business by
the deprcdations of Germany.
The immediate return of this stolen
machinery and ether property should
be forced, and where its return is not
possible 1t should be replaced with
equivalent machinery from German
factories, and the machinery and prop
erty destroyed should be replaced in
the same way just so far as that is
