What to Give Germany.

1T was through pure humanitarian
and patriotic feelings that the Kaiser
went to Holland" says Herr Hirsch in
the German assembly, and so says
Hindenberg. We might accept this
statement if he had gone there before
the war started The German politi-
clans are like squirrels in Il whirligig
cage. They cant even reverse. They
don't know any other way of going
different to that to which they have
been accustomed They talk of enter
ing Paris in 1925. With such minds
there is only one course to pursue.

ed in the coming peace terms;

battleShipS and several cruisers.
> That the Kiel canal should be
made international, with the Germans
in occupation, etc.
When will our rulers learn that nc
German ship should be allowed on the
ocean? That no German can be trust
ed with IN international function

slightest sign of Il change of heart OF

LIGHTED CHICKEN cooPs TO
INCREASE EGG PRODUCTION

Professor james f. Rice of the de-
partment of poultry husbandry, Cor
nell University, Ithaca, \. Y. in Il
statement issued Il few days ago at the
meeting of the New York State POul-
try Associations in New York city de-
clared that tests carried on at Cornell
during period of rs weeks, with more
than 200 hens and pullets, have proved
beyond the shadow of Il doubt that
lights in chicken coopS have IL direct
effect on the production of eggs. The
coops We're kept lighted until O'Clock
every night throughout the test, and
the egg totals showed that 100 hens
and pullets in the lighted chicken
house produced 135 $40 more eggs
than the same number of chickens in
the unlighted coopS
The reason for the increased produc-
ton of eggs in lighted coops was given
by Professor Rice as being that the
hens had more time in which to eat.
There was no long wait between sup
per and breakfast. Professor Rice
said that the same amount of feed was
required by the busy layers as by the
other hens, but the hens who had the
artificially long day ate their food
more slowly.
At Wholesale prices the increased
number of eggs in the lighted coop dur
ing the period of the experiment
amounted to S71.SS The average in
crease in the production of eggs for
hens in lighted coops WAS placed at
"onc dozen or more" per year by Pro
feSSor Rice. Under this system the
poultryman. il is said, has absolute
control over the egg production, since
the laying pullets stopped laying when
the lights We're turned off for period
and began again when the lights went
ON.
Professor Rice explained that one
reason for the increased profit on the
eggs was because the hens continued
laying through the late autumn ano
early winter, when the price of eggs
is highest.

fine SERMON AND
fine MUSIC AT
PALISAOE CHURCH

| The Palisade Church had out last
/ Sunday one of the largest congrega-
/ tons for some time. In addition to
/ hearing one of the finest sermons ever
/ delivered here, there was special mu-
! sic, organist Moody having engaged
the services of Miss Dorothy Ken
worthy, of Grantwood, as solist, and
Miss Donaldson who played violin
obligato to her solo, besides accom-
panying the organiSt in spirited
hymn at the close of the service. Of
Miss Kenworthy's singing, she was at
her best She sang a special varia-
tion of ASHAMED of Jesus and put
so much soul and expression into the
music that everybody was carried
away with the beauty and feeling of
her work. She has il rich, round, very
appealing soprano, and sings with IL
spirit that grips. Rev. Guhse twice
alluded to the song in his sermon and
took occasion to pay the young lady
Il well-merited compliment after her
effort OF Miss Donaldson'S violin
playing, she has greatly improved She,
too. plays with "A great depth of feel
ing. and has mastered the technique
of her instrument until today she is
playing with cOnsummate art. She
has wonderful tone, and plays with
Il sort of fire that brings out all there
is in the music she is interpreting.
Rev Guhse preached one of his
characteristic sermons from the text
from Is;liahs vision of God Nearly
always" he said there is in the
life of a great man one day, some
times ii single luminous hour, which
gives the key to his whole career"
He cited the cases of Abraham and
Moses-and the outstanding incident
of the burning bush. And the great
est example in the New Testament,
the life and career of Paul. And Lu-
ther. whose voice rang out on the
Santa Scola. The just shall live by
faith.
He cited the life of Florence Night
ingale, the heroine of the Crimean
war, from whence sprang the glorious
record of the present day Red Cross
of the world. The main thought in
volved in the sermon was the great
need for the individual and for ma
lions to live close to God. Lincoln was
cited to prove the need of Il g0dly
man to direct this nation at Il time
when its destinies We're in the bal
ance. The present hour of public
peril calls into action many a brave
and gOdly spirit In answer to the
deep need of nations today visions
of eternal right and truth, and love.

heart"
The deep need of God in all of our
undertakings was emphasized iii iii the
way the need of leaning on and be-
ing with God in our daily labors. 1t is
the salvation of the world. and the
,ane sure remedy for the world in the
present great crisis.

proficiency In spite of the fact that
roundup and carnival advocates say
of the necessity of foolish, dissipa-
tional entertainment, those real
fairs" have drawn great throngs Of
people, who have taken great interest
in the daily programs and who carried
away useful and refreshing ideas and
conceptions as the result of zone or
more days at the fair There was en-
tertainment at these fairs, of course;
trained animals, parades, judging dem
constructions, good band and vocal mus
ic, the merry-go-round for the chill
dren, refreshment stands, etc.
1t is hard to understand the enthus-
iasm of the ordinary business man for
the carnival and the broncho busting
sort OF fair. The eating houses and
refreshment stands have their Golfers
we'll filled, but few others benefit.
The professional outfits and the travel
ing carnivals move out as soon as the
program is needed. Accumulated
profits are carried out of the county,
to be spent in far distant regions. If
the exhibit and educational features
are stressed local people get the
greater portion by far of the money
spent at the fair. This money soon
comes through the regular channels
Of trade to benefit the entire cOmmun
ity. No movement is quite so lacking
in efficiency in community building
as the present tendency to stress itin-
Grant amusement features at the cOun-
ty fair.
Why not, therefore, not only from
the point of view of sound social pol
icy, but in addition from a purely
economic policy, take a stand against
the present unhealthy tendency in pro-
viding county fair programs? The
apparent popularity of some present
day forms of so-called county fair en-
tertainment no more represents the
real sound and permanent sentiment
of our people than does the frothy
billow truly reveal the nature of the
great ocean depths beneath. At least

MERGER MINING co.
TO INSTALL A MILL
IMPORTANT DEVELOPMENT
STEP-ISSUE BONDS
(Palouse Republic)

The most important action taken in
many years in connection with min
ing operations in the upper Palouse
Or Hoodo district, is that taken by the
Merger Mining company, looking to
the installation of mill on its prop
erty. At a stockholders meeting held
Monday at the company's offices in
this city, the proposition of bonding
the property for $4,000 for the pur-
pose Of putting in a mill, carried
without opposition.
The plan worked out by a compe-
tent mill engineer, is to build a 80
ton mill, which will be constructed
with view of doubling its capacity
which can be done at a small expense,
compared to the original cost. A
small sawmill will be put on the
property, which will lessen the cost
of construction, making it possible to
manufacture the lumber for the
company's use on the ground. All
the machinery has been selected and
it is the plan of the management
to have it shipped to Harvard at an
early date, so as to be able to take
advantage of the first permanent
snow roads to move it to the property.
j. c. Northrup, president and man
ager of the company, states that the
trustees now feel that they are fully
justified in putting mill on the
property. One of the lodges that has
been, opened is true fisher vein of
more than 20 feet in width. The ore
is exceptionally high grade, running
as high as twenty-four and one-half
per cent copper by the car load.
This was hand picked ore, of which
about $4,000 worth has been ship
ped. In mining this ore, about $780,
900 worth of high grade milling ore
has been taken out and is now ready
for the mill This ore will average
about five per cent in copper and
about So in gold and silver. At the
same time this ore was mined about |
100000 worth of the same kind of |
milling ore was blocked out and can
be very cheaply mined. 1t is the
plan of the management to continue |
mining during the winter, and if the |
roads will permit, some high grade |
3re will be shipped to the smelter.
The Merger company owns about
100 acres of mineral land at the head |

problem eventually, as there are

is supposed to end tomorrow and Mos
COW is far below its quota. G. A.

do so as soon as possible. Subscrip-

banks or any of the four drug stores
and souvenir receipts will be issued.

these should be in before the drive
ends Saturday evening.
