M'Cumber Says
May Lose Treaty

Phoenix. Ariz., Dec. 1.-U. s. Sen
ator McCumber of North Dakota, de-
clared that although an ardent sup
porter of the peace treaty and the
covenant of the league of nations he
was frank to admit that unless Presi-
dent Wilson was prepared to recede
from the position he took at the
close of the peace conference. "he
will have no peace treaty"
There is no question" said Sen
ator McCumber but that our reluc-
tance to enter into any agreement
for preservation of the peace of the
world unless we are accorded special
advantages over the other nations
has created a sentiment of distrust
toward us as well as a growing be-
lief that our proclamations for
world justice are just trifle sell
fish and not wholly sincere"
The North Dakota senator is here
for month to visit with relatives.

Turks Appeal
for Early Peace

Constantinople, Dec. Appeals
that early arrangements be made for
negotiating peace treaty, sent by
the sublime porte to the peace con-
ference in Paris, are said to have
been inspired by the fear that Tur-
key may be plunged into anarchy
with no responsible government left
to treat with the allies. At the same
time, the grand vizier is urging
country districts to hurry arrange
ments for elections SO that a parlia-
ment may meet here and be ready
to discuss the terms of peace.
At present the interior of the
country is not controlled by the gov
ernment which cannot collect taxes
and has funds. This financial situa-
ton, it is pointed out, is liable to
throw the country into the hands of
any other which may make tia loan.
The Turks are preparing to make an
effort to excite interest in America
for mandate over this country and
plan to send publicists to America
for that purpose.

army which it developed with the
service during the recent emergency,
the war department announced to-

S. D. ENLISTMENT
PERCENTAGES
AVERAGE FOR STATE OF THOSE
WHO WENT TO WAR
VOLUNTARILY.

Watertown, Dec. The average
county ex-service man during the re-
cent war, as compiled from figures
taken from the assessors records on
file in the office of the adjutant gen.
eral at Redfield, is IL and 1925
months. This information was made
public today by Wright Tarbell, of
Watertown, the state publicity di-
rector Of the American legion.
The individual service records for
Codington county men ranged from
one to 80 months, as indicated by
the 500 records transmitted to the
adjutant general from the county
auditor, and other data utilized In
the compilation.
From the information deduced
from the records, apparently but one
county surpasses Codington county
in percentage of enlistments to the
total number of men in the service
through the draft and otherwise
This county is credited with TAG men
in the service of whom 173, or 90
per cent, were voluntary enlist
ments, while Dawson county, from
available records. shows 6 per cent
more. or 20 per cent. The general
average over the state is 12 IA per
cent.
The counties furnishing the larg-
est percentage of enlistments as a
matter of course naturally show
longer average lengths of service,
the heavist enlistments being nearly
during the war before the draft law
went into effect.

FIVE VICTIMS
OF GRID IN 1918
FOOTBALL CLAIMS IT'S TOLL AS
ROUGHEST OF AMERICAN
OUTDOOR SPORTS.

Chicago, Dec. Football, the
toughest of American outdoor sports
claimed five. victims during the 1915
season, which closed with Thanks
giving day games, according to re
ports to The Associated Press today
The number of deaths-the Lowest
in years--was five less than in 1918
and seven under the toll OF two years
ago. There were IS lives lost dur
ing the 1916 season and 16 in 1916.
Development of the open style OF
play, to supplant the dangerous
smashing game, is mainly respon-
sible for the decreasing number of
fatalities.
All victims of the 1919 season
with one exception, were high school
players without physical training
The list of victims follows:
Paul Johnson. 10, Wayzata, Mimi,
died November q, from conclusion
of the brain, after being tackled in
a high school game.
Lewis Moulton, Neodesha, Kas..
member of high school team, died
November 5, as the result of a brok-
en- neck received in a practice game
Calvin Libisher, IT, Urbana, O.,
died September 20, from cerebral in
juries sustained in a high school
game.
Gardner Row, New Haven, Conn,
member of the Connecticut Agricul-
tural college eleven, died September
81, from concussion of the brain. in
jured playing against New Hamp-
shire college.
Joseph Blancke, 16, Moline, H.,
died October 80. of blood poisoning
which developed from an injury sus-
tanned in a neighborhood game.

WINTER CARE
OF CALVES
DIRECTOR OF STATE COLLEGE
SAYS FEED DOESN'T DO
1T ALL.

Brookings, Dec. 1.-Prof. C.. Lar
sen. director of the State College OF
Agriculture. says scours in calves
are caused more often by unfavor-
able surroundings than by improper
feed ng. This is what he says:
Feed is not the only important
consideration. 1t is equally desir-
able to give calves a healthful and
desirable home. There should not
be more than four in . pen. Pro-
vide a stanchion for each calf.
In many instances calves are ex-
posed to a very warm place over
night, then during the day when the
remainder of the stock is turned out
the doors are LETT open, Such an
extreme variation in temperature is
sure to cause scrawny, looking
calves.
Teach the calf to eat grain early.
IL an older calf, knowing how to
eat grain. is in the pen with the
smaller ones, they will soon learn
to eat grain.
An excellent ration for little
calves is three parts of oats, one part
of corn and one part Of oilmeal.
Keep the grain fresh. Do not spill
milk in 1t and have a sour manger.
Let the calves have free access to
fresh and clean water, and also to
salt. The common idea that calves
will drink too much water Is a mis-
take. During the first four months
little calves should not eat too much
grain.
Feed the mothers milk during the
first three or four weeks. Make a
change from whole. to skim milk
gradually. Do not change to skim
until the calves know how to eat
grain. II calf IL Z little backward

Issues Protest On
American Dances

Paris, Dec. Cardinal Annette,
archibisop of Paris, today issued a
pastoral letter protesting against the
immodest toilettes of women and in
decent dances, saying that christian
women and girls ought to abstain
from such dressing and such amuse-
ments. The cardinal affirms that
thsee dances are exotic by origin and
by name.
Presumably he refers to certain
American dances which have become
the fashion in Paris in recent
months.
