OLD REGIME MEN Still
HOLD Jobs IN BERLIN
Members of Staff Presiding Dur
ing War Continue in Office
Under Ebert.

In Berlin one is surprised to find the
large number of men of the old govern
ment who are still holding their posi-
tions under the socialist regime. The
foreign Office and practically all Of the
state departments have about the same
stats as held Office during the war. -
In many cases the head of the de-
partments are changed, but the same
group of undersecretaries work under
q socialistic head. Very often the en-
tire department is dependent upon
these undersecretaries. The majority
socialists under Ebert saved many or
these technical men," as they are
called, and it is due to them that Ger
man executive departments have con-
tinued to function in spite Of revolu'
ton.
According to the former employees
and representatives of the new gov
ernment, the fact that men who served
the militaristlc party are now working
with the socialists is not to be looked
upon with suspicion by the allies, or
to be taken as an indication that the
government is any less socialist.
In Germany the departments OF state
are run upon a system whereby a man
starts in one as a youngster and grows
up with the department. His views will
not keep him out Of Office. Many Of the
former kaiser's technical men protest
they never have been In sympathy with
the militaristic party and always have
been liberals.
Though the radicals would throw
these men out, because they are demo
Gratis rather. than socialists, the ma
jority socialists have taken a broader
view in the interests Of keeping gov
ernment machinery funcdoning.

PLAN TO SUCK FOG
OUT OF OLD LONDON
Engineers Propose to Wash Aic
of Greatest City in the
World.

No more fogs for London? That is
the great possibility of the near fu-
ture. The projected method of abate-
ment is a novel one, and is planned to
consist Of a system of conduits and
sucking pipes through the metropolis
Of the world. This is first announce
ment of the proposal which is engaging
the attention Of the British national
physical laboratory at Teldlngton, q
London suburb.
Fog Is smoke-saturated mist. When
the mist is dense little Of the smoke es-
capes. The proposed antifog system
would suck in the imprisoned smoke,
draw it through the conduits to battles,
or air washers, which would extract
the dirt and dissipate the fumes.
: In reality this is a system Of smoke
controlling, under low atmospheric con-
,ditions such as is individually prac-
ticed in large buildings and factories
in America. AS London has hundreds
Of thousands of buildings, each with
from five to fifty f1replaces-a Chin
ney for each freplace-it will be seen
how difficult it would be to "muzzle"
every chimney.
London is reluctant to abolish its
traditional fireplace In favor of the
more economical and efficient hot wa
ter or furnace heating systems, so that
the millions of chimneys will continue
to spew their dirty breath into the air
for years to come. The sucking and
air-washing system is the simplest.
most trustworthy fog eliminator under
these conditions. it Is believed.

been clear, bright day John j.. Nc
Bennett, ~ West Sixty-ninth street,
New York, just returned from France,
where since last May he served as a
knights Of Columbus secretary, would
not be- living today. He admits it and
his contention is supported by Cor
poral Bill Hale of Iowa, circulation
manager for Stars and Stripes, the Of
fetal organ Of the A. e. F. Hale, too,
has cause to remember always that
that particular day was bright and
clear-at least in the Argonne section
of the battleflelds in France.
McBennett and Hale would certain
" have been blown off the face Of the
earth If a keen-eyed American artil-
lery officer had not, through power
full field glass, happened to see the
X. 9. chevron on McBennett's sleeve.
There wasn't an instant to spare, ei-
ther, because four big American guns
were trained on the men and the sig
nal only was needed to blow them to
smithereens:
How It Happened.
It happened like this: McBennett
Who had been delivering supplies to
several of the Knights Of Columbus
buildings ut the front, returned to d.
vision headquarters near Rarecourt
Saturday night, October IL. with his
automobile out Of commission. He was
wondering how he could manage to get
these cigarets and chocolates where
they would do the most good when he
happened to see Corporal Bill Hale
coming along with camionette, deliv-
ering a late edition of Stars and
Stripes.
Hale agreed to help McBennett out.
They made an early start and headed
for Fleville, then started for st. Juvin,
which McBennett understood was oc-
cupied by American troops, but later
developments proved that $50 Ger
mans were concealed in the town and
outskirts.
Got Out to Adjust curtains.
They kept going until they were
within Is yards of the city. They
stopped their car and decided to get
away from there at once. Hale got
out of the car to adjust the curtains
on one side and McBennett left his
seat to arrange the shields on the
other side. They finally turned around
and they got back near Flcville.
On the way back to the lines NC
Bennett and Hale met Father Mar
telle, chaplain of the Three Hundred
and Seventh engineers and Three Hun.
dren and Twenty-first field artillery,
The priest told McBennett and Hale
they certainly were the luckiest men
in the world, because on the preceding
day, when they had ridden into File.
Vile and started for st. Juvin, the
American troops stationed in noun
tain near there had seen them, but
could not make out any name or In
sigma on their car, and when they
saw them ride by these German ma
chine-gun nests they naturally con-
cluded that they were Germans and
thus decided to mop them up. -Four
guns got their range on them imme-
diately and would have received the
signal to begin firing had it not been
for the keen-eyed officer referred to-
Through his glass he happened to see

To establish 'safe, farming in
Pointe Coupee Parish. La, the local
agricultural agent has worked out a
systematic plan to improve crop yields
and introduce more and better stock.
Proper field selection of seed corn and
the best methods of cultivation were
given first attention. In the fall Of
1917 the first concrete evidence was
had of the success of this work when
more than 100 carloads of corr were
shipped from the parish. In 1918 a
INSTRUMENTATION plot was grown
and corn produced on the area won
first place at the Southern Louisiana
fair. Through the agents efforts near
ly every farmer now has an alfalfa
patch producing at the rate of nearly
five tons an acre. During the last year
the alfalfa acreage was increased
more than 100 per cent. Under the
agents direction hundreds of pure
bred and high-grade sires and dams
have been imported, and native scrub
cattle have given way to animals of
quality. Hogs and sheep have also
been greatly improved, and now prac.
tically every farm family produces
enough meat for its own use and many
have q surplus for sale.

A HOMEMADE DOLLS HOUSE.

A friend Of mine entered her FIVE
year-old son in a kindergarten. She
TOOK him there every day, and once in
a while stayed with her three-year-old
daughter to visit. Noticing that the
children were happy because they were
busy with work which appealed to
them and that the dolls house was
frequently the center Of attraction,
she decided to allow her little ones to
make Il house at home. So for 20 cents
two wooden egg boxes were secured

More calves see the light of day in
the spring and draw their first breath
when the air Is filled with the fra
GRANGE Of many blossoms than during
any other season of the year. Whether
these calves will become star boarders,
producing little milk of no profit for
their owners, or be desirable addi-
tons to the dairy world, will depend
not only upon the care that is given
them but upon the feed and manage
ment of their mothers. Poorly nour-
ished COWS, say dairy specialists of the
United States department of agricul-
ture, give birth to weak calves that
are hard to raise. Cows which have
an abundance Of palatable succulent
feed and are in good body flesh and
healthy, thrifty condition at calving
time are more likely to produce we'll
developed, strong, thrifty calves which
will respond normally to proper feed
and care. 1t is false economy for any
dairy-cow owner to withhold feed from
a dry cow, as this is likely to affect
u%nfavorably the future welfare of the
calf, as we'll as later milk production
by the COW.
Natures method is to have the calf
stay with the COW until it can support
itself. In modern dairy farming, how
ever, because Of the value Of the but
terfat and whole milk the dairyman
separates the calf from the COW soon
after birth. The milk produced by the
COW for the first few days has proper
ties which put the calf's digestive sys-
tenn in good working order. It is,
therefore, necessary that the newly
born calf have this milk.
Teaching Calf to Drink.
The longer the calf remains with
the cow, however, the harder it is to
teach it to drink, but it is usually a
simple matter to teach a good, robust
calf to drink, if taken when not more
than two days old. Before this is at
tempted a calf should be kept from
the COW for about twelve hours; it will
then be very hungry. About two quarts
Of it's mothers milk, fresh and warm,
should be put into a clean pail and
held in front Of the calf. Sometimes
1t will put it's nose into the pail and
drink without coaxing. Dairymen are
not fortunate enough to have many
calves that will do this, however, and
in most cases it will be necessary to
use a little forceful persuasion in
assisting the. calf with its first meal
away from its mother. Let the calf
suck the fingers, and by this mean
gradually draw it's nose into the milk,
when the fingers should be removed
carefully as soon IS the calf gets q
taste of the milk. Patience is neces-
sary, for this operation may have to
be repeated two or three times before
the calf will drink alone.
A calf weighing so pounds at birth
should have about eight pounds of
whole milk a day, while a 1O0-pound
calf should have about twelve pounds.

Calves Of Different Sizes in Homemade Stanchions-This Method In.
sures Each Calf His Share of Feed.

TO oIdTc OF = ecu
The amount Of milk should be gradual
ly increased until at the end Of the
second week the calf should receive
from IA to 16 pounds a day. It's moth
er's milk should be given a calf for the
first four days, then any good whole
milk can be used, but preferably it
should not contain more than 4 per
cent butterfat.s Best results can be OBJ
tanned by feeding young calves three
times a day, with the periods between
feeding as nearly equal as possible.
When fed in this way the calf does not
overload its stomach and the digestion
Of the feed is more evenly distributed
throughout the "a hours. Regularity
in feeding is important. When calves
are fed but twice a day the feeding
should be as nearly as possible II
hours apart.
Cleanliness Essential.
Successful raising of calves requires
absolute cleanliness. Calf pens should
Away be Kept clean and be supplied
with plenty of dry bedding. Discarded
feed should be removed from the feed
boxes, which should be thoroughly
brushed and cleaned each day. AL
milk fed should be fresh and clean,
which is true also of other feeds. Milk
pals should be scalded thoroughly
with boiling water, or sterilized with
steam if possible.
At the beginning Of the third week
either skim or separated milk may be
substituted for whole milk at the rate
of n pound a day. The daily ration
may be increased from two to four
pounds, depending upon the vigor Of
the calf. When the calf does not
drink eagerly what is offered, the
quantity should be cut down. The ra-
ton at the end Of the third week
usually should be approximately one
half whole and one-half separated
milk. During the fourth week the
change should be continued until by
the end of the week only separated
milk is fed, unless the calf is very deli.
cate. With especially vigorous calves
the change to separated milk can be
made about a week earlier. The guam
tity fed can. be increased gradually to
10 to %20'pounds a day.
Six months Is probably a good aver
age age at which to wean calves from
the milk. The age depends upon the
cost Of the milk in relation to the
value Of the calf, its breed, size, vigor,
etc. The season of the year and the
other feeds available also must be con-
sidered. When the best of hay, silage.
and a good variety of grains are avail
able, or when good, succulent pastur-
age a be provided, the calf can be
weaned earlier; also the stronger and
more vigorous the calf the earlier it
can be weaned. On the other hand,
the more valuable the calf the more
expense the owner is warranted in
developing it, and the later it will
probably be weaned. If skim or sep
a1Ated milk is plentiful, calves may be
fed it with profit until they are eight
or ten months old.
