 Sergeant Edgar M. Halyburton or the l6th U. s. infantry, who was prisoner in the camp at Rastatt, Ger many, tells the story of the German rronocanda there and of the disloyal- tv of two American soldiers.
 According to Halyburton, Private Nicholoff. 23rd infantry, and Private HaI0e. 18th infantry, were traitors to the United States and co-operatcd ,~ith Captain von Tauchcr, the Ger ,nan propaganda chief at the camp, to reduce the morale of the other Ameri- cans.
 Neither Nichoff nor Halas were Amoricans. Nichoff, whose real nam" was Minchoff, was a Bulgarian.

as their tools," says Halyburton.
 "The morale of ninety per cent of the Americans was admissible They were splendid examples of Uncle Sam's soldiers of whom their country can justly be proud. They worked night and day to curb von Taucher's work.
 With other nationalities it was the practice of the Germans to place pro- Germans in charge of the prison CTS. The men in charge of the prison CTS at Rastaat were at all times ab- olutely reliable. They were true Am aricns, first, last and always"

WAS LONG FAMOUS HIGHWAY
Cumberland Pike WeIl-Traveled
Road In the Early Days of
the Country.

When the immigrants traversed the
Santa Fe trail, when they went over
land to the Golden Gate, when they
traversed the prairies in every direc-
ton, they did not travel In trek carts,
says Dan Beard in Boys Life. They
travelled in what were known as prai-
RE schooners, and the prairie schooner
was a direct descendant of the cones
toga, and the conestoga wagon was the
freight wagon that carried all the
freight over the old Cumberland road,
or the Old Pike, as 1t was sometimes
called. This was the first good road
from Wheeling. w. Va, to Fort Cum
berland-now Cumberland, Md, pref
ty little town delightfully."- situated on
branch of the Potomac river. There
were two routes to the Ohio valley,
one over the famous Boone trail to
Cumberland Gap blazed on the trees
IN ITO. The other route was over the
Braddock road to the Youghiougheny,
and 1t was in the general direction of
this road that the Cumberland pike
was built. a splendid road of stone
covered with gravel that passed over
great arched bridges thrown across
the ravines and water courses. The
cumberland road was laid out by an
Indian guide and in 1S4S it was ac-
knowledged to be the greatest Travelled
highway in America.

,DAIRYING ON BETTER BASIS
One of the Greatest Needs of Indus
try at Present Is More Attention
to Breeding.

AT the present time one Of the
greatest needs of the dairy interests
In this country is that the individual
farmer shall be more Of student of
the fine points of breeding. Compara-
lively few now pay much attention TO
that. 1t is not so with horses. We
take great deal of pains to breed orr
mares to the best possible sire. We
have learned that 1t pays to do this
We get colts and they sell for better
price when we wish to turn them off
The same attention might well he
given to the matter of mating cows
and bulls. If we ever get away from
the thousands of cows that take onr
good feed and our care and give hack
not enough to pay for their keeping
we will have to get the best sires We
possibly can and mate them with cows
Of known good qualities. Then dairy
ing viii come to better basis. We
will all of us be doing business at .
profit.

cow TESTING ASSOCIATIONS
Increase in Butterfat Production
Largely Attributed to Work
Of Organizations.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
The estimated average butterfat pro-
duction of all the dairy cows in the
United States is about 100 pounds a
year. From so yearly summaries of
contrasting associations, including the
records of 26,710 cows, their butterfat
production averaged 245 pounds a
year. This is more than 90 per cent
above the country's average produc-
ton, and large part of the gain may
fairly be attributed to association
work.
From every point Of view, therefore,
the contrasting associations seem to be
successful. Measured by the strict
rules of the investigator they have
made good; tried out in the field of
practical experience they have proved
true; weighed in the balance of public
opinion they have not been found
wanting.

four days, In which Germany will

any material changes in the treaty as
originally presented The conces-

form Of supplementary agreement,
defining the procedure for the repara-

to emerge from the deliberations of

definite monetary total for PREPARATIONS,

ground that announcement of any
sum which 1t is considered possible to
exact in payment would so disappoint
the expectations of the, French public

GRIZZLY BEAR FROM ASIA
Something Like q Million Years Ago
the Animal Came Here by
Way of Alaska.

The grizzly bear has been known to
the white race little more than cen
fury. Lewis and Clark wrote the first
official accounts of him in 1905, and he
was first discussed publicly in 1914 by
Gov. De Witt Clinton in New York city.
Guthrie's old geography says that he
was named Ursus horribilus by Natur-
alist George Ord in 1915. Fossil rec
ords indicate that the grizzly is Of
Asiatic origin. He appears to have
come into America about a million
years ago over one of the prehistoric
land bridges that united Alaska and
Asia. Bears and dogs are descendants
from the same parent stocJ. The griz-
ely bear never eats human flesh, is not
ferocious and fights only in self-de-
Tense. He leads an adventurous life,
Is a born explorer and ever has good
wilderness manners-never makes at
tacks. The numerous cases in which
the grizzly has been made pet and
companion of man, where he was
thoughtfully, intelligently raised, show
him to be superior animal, dignitied,
intelligent, loyal and uniformly good
tempered.
Not grizzly exists in any of the
four national parks of California, and
that animal, once so celebrated in that
state, is extinct there. He is also ex-
tinct over the greater portion of the
vast territory which he formerly oc-
cupied, and is verging on extermina-
ton,

6,107 pounds of milk and 259 pounds
of butterfat.
The average gain head in pounds
of milk during 1918 over the first year
was 1881, while the average gain a
head In butterfat was SO pounds. The
average gain Of 1886 pounds of milk
in 1918 over 1917 represents a total
gain for the association of 1924
pounds. Figuring this at $2,975 a
hundredweight, the average price for
the year, gives an added value of $12,-
