BY EDWARD W. PIcKARo.

Most of the great problems confront
ing the peace conference were settled
last week by the "Big Four"-perhaps.
That Is to say, at the close of the week
they were settled, but before this
reaches the reader they may be all I'M
settled again. Such has been the way
of the peacemakers in the past. How
ever, If there is not agreement on the
vital questions mighty soon, there Is
some reason to believe President VIII
son will withdraw from the delibera-
lions and come home. He startled the
conference and the world by ordering
his transport, the George Washington,
made ready for another trip to Europe,
and asking when 1t might be expected
there. Some Of the Paris papers de-
clared Mr.. Wilson was thus trying to
force the French delegates to mitigate
their demands; pessimists saw in the
action the probability of hopeless dis
agreement; optimists said it meant the
treaty wat nearly ready for submission
to the Germans.
The theory of the optimists was
borne out by dispatches late In the
week stating that the Big Four had
agreed: That William Hohenzollern
and others responsible for breach of
treaty and of rules of war must stand
trial. probably before a Belgian court,
but that the death penalty should not
be imposed on the former kaiser; that
France shall be given control Of the
mines of the Saar valley, but shall not
be permitted to annex any Of that ter
ritory and that a commission shall reg
ulate strikes by miners there; that
Germany must make an initial pay
ment of $4,000. 600, 1000 reparation in
1921, after which a commission shall
assess a yearly indemnity.
The Rhine frontier, the ultimate dis
position Of Danzig, the Italian claims
to Fiume and the Dalmatian coast and
some lesser matters remained to be
settled at the time these dispatches
were sent. That agreement on these
questions was believed to be imminent
was indicated by the fact that the com

Paderewsk urged before the council

Silesia, but the belief was that this
matter, as well as that of the Rhine
land. would be settled In conformity
with Mr.. Wilson's IA points, his abso-
lutte adherence to which he again de-
clared; that, of course. would preclude
the annexation of enemy territory.
How the Italian claims would be set

An important and interesting part
of the treaty, which has been formu-
lated. deals with water and rail COM
munications in enemy states. Freedom
Of transportation through Germany and
Austria and equality of treatment In
ports and harbors are provided. The
regulation of transportation over the
Rhine and Danube provides for the
entrance Of France, Switzerland and
some nonpartisan states to the present
Mannheim convention between Ger
many and Holland covering the navi-
CATION of the Rhine.
The European commission control
ling the mouths of the Danube will be
continued, representatives of present
enemy states being excluded from 1t,
and a similar international commission
will be established Professionally for
the upper Danube. This will last until
a new general Danube convention Is
established.
A new international convention COW
ering the navigation of the Elbe and
Oder rivers is recommended to protect
the interests of Poland and Czecho-
Slovakia and give them freedom Of
navigation without discriminating du-
ties. down through German territory
to the North and Baltic seas. These
states would be further given free port
privileges at certain north German har-
bors In order that they may be enabled
to develop their export and import
commerce.

Owing to the illness Of President
Wilson during the early part of the
week, the commission on the league of
nations did not meet until Thursday
evening. At that time the completed
draft of the covenant, comprising q
articles, was submitted. There is no
longer any doubt in Paris that the
league covenant will be a part of
the peace treaty, and In this country
the opposition seems to be losing some
of its vehemence.
1t was announced that the commits
sion had adopted a section specifically
safeguarding the Monroe doctrine. and
that Geneva, Switzerland, had been Sc
lected as the seat of the league Of ma
lions.

CARE FOR EWES AT LANDING
Animals Usually Become Restless at
This Time and Should Be Put
in Separate Pen.

prepared by tho United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Heavy grain feeding to ewes just
before lambing is likely to cause udder
troubles. At this time ewes become
restless and should be put into a sepa-
rate pen, which may be of two gate
like panels fastened together at one
end by hinge and set next to wall.
These panels permit the eve TO see
the other members of the flock and
prevent her from becoming excited or
nervous. Their use also prevents other
sheep from trampling on the lamb
and the eve has Il good chance TO get
acquainted with her lamb at the start,
thus avoiding the danger of disowned
lambs later. These lambing pens
should be in q well-ventilated room
that is free from drafts and as warm
as it can be made without artificial
heat. In very cold weather a blanket
thrown over the lambing pen will in
sure sufficient warmth to give the
lamb good chance in its first few
hours, which are important ones.

1t is important to use q good pre-
sentative, and coal tar creosote has
proven by far the most satisfactory
substance. Ordinary gas or coal tar
has been occasionally used, but it is
TOO thick, even when heated, to give
fair degree of penetration and
teaches out more quickly than creo-
sote
Present prices of coal-tar creosote
range mostly from % to So cents a
gallon in barrel lots laid down at the
nearest railroad point. The pre-war
price was about Is to 20 cents gall
lon. A gallon of creosote is sufficient
to treat three posts from 3 TO 4 inches
at the top, or two posts from to 8
inches in top diameter, thus making
the cost from 10 to 10 cents per post
or in ordinary times from to 10
cents. The other items would be the
cost of cutting and peeling the posts
ar perhaps . cents each, the labor of
treating which can be figured at from
10 cents, and share of the equip
ment cost. which would likely average
about = cents each, using a two-tank
outfit. This makes a total cost of
from Is to % cents each.
Joint Ownership Saves
A saving in cost would be made BY
two or more farmers Jointly owning
and using a treating equipment. This
method in Il number of instances has
proved successful form of co-opera-
ton among farm owners
Post timber for treating is very
abundant in the dense old-field pine
stands throughout the Southern states,
The small trees which are being
crowded out by the taller dominant
trees are very often of just the right
size for making treated fence posts.
Cutting them for this purpose utilities
a forest product that would other
wise be wasted and improves the re-
naming stand by giving room for
growth needed by the remaining trees.
A wood with an interlocked and twist
ed fiber, such as black gum or sweet
gum, are of the very best sort for
treating. since they are little subject
to the deep checking apt to occur in
wood after ) to 10 years of exposure
in the weather. The "seeds" or spores
