HOW KAISER BILLS FATHER
SIZED HIM UP AS A YOUTH

Berlin, Jan. 3.-.Less than two
years before William II, the former
German emperor, came to the throne
Of Germany; his father Frederick con-
sidered 1t dangerous to allow him to
have any hand in the foreign politics
Of the German Empire. Frederick, In
fact, had an extremely low regard for
his sons mental equipment and ab!l.
ity, and 1t is frankly set forth in a
letter written to Bismarck, Sept. 2S,
1885, from Portofino, Italy, and which
has just been made public.
Williams principal defects at that
time, as his father saw them, were
"his habit Of making snap judgments
ina manner tending to exaggeration,
lack of actual learning" which was
still full Of gaps" and ian inclina'
ton to conceit." Here is the text Of
the letter:
my son, Prince Wilhelm, ha, with.
out my previous knowledge expressed

with the operations of our minlaterie,

the foreign office.

''Inasmuch as I have received no
official communication to that effect,
! am compelled to turn to you in con-
fidence to learn what has really been
decided on, and further to declare
that, despite the fact that I am in
favor in principle Of introducing M
son into questions of the higher adj
ministration, I am decidedly opposed
to having him begin at the foreign Of
fee. For in view Of the importance
of the tasks to be entrusted to the
prince, I consider It imperative that
he shall first of all thoroughly learn
the internal conditions Of his own
land and have the feeling that he un-
derstands them thoroughly before he,
with his habit Of making snap judg.
ments tending to exaggeration, busies
himself with politics.
"His actual learning is still full OF
gaps, and at the same time he lacks
the proper foundation, and for this
reason 1t is absolutely necessary that
his education be improved and CON-
pleted. II he could be assigned to
the office Of civilian advisory on
/ cial, and II he could later be connect
J ed with or even given post in one Of
the administrative MINISTRIES, It
would serve this purpose. But, in
view Of the immaturity as well Of the
inexperience of my eldest son, and al
so of his inclination to conceit. I am
compelled to declare that It ID abso-
lutely dangerous to bring him into
touch with questions Of foreign poi
icy, at this time. And while begging
you to consider my communication AZ
strictly confidential, I count On you
In this matter, which causes me grave
anxiety"

Sections

Tn the counties in which growing OF

ance lin southern Florida)' the home
truit garden may contain more sub
tropical varieties than can be grown
in the northern part of the State.
The tendency now is to grow ou'

culture. The home fruit garden should
contain such varieties as the King

will supply valuable fruit.
Near the shore Of lake or other
moist and mucky locality some Hart

the Presidency. ~4
The general assumption that he is
Republican comes from the fact
that he married daughter of Sena-
tor Warren of Wyoming, one Of the
leading Republicans in the West.
Last fall, during the hot Senatorial
contest IN Wyoming, one Of General
Pershing's sons worked for the re-
election Of his grandfather.
Dispatches from France today state
that two Southerners who are out Of
harmony with the dominant Demo.
cratic element told General Pershing
that they and other Democrats If
their way Of thinking would support
him If he accepted the Republican
nomination. Politicians here have
puzzled their brains to make guess
as to who the Southern spokesman
are, but could not hit upon anybody.
Independent Democrats in the
South would like to see protective
tariff President elected in 1920. It
may be some of the men have gone
to France to offer Southern support
to General Pershing.
1t is believed here by leading Dem
ocrats that President Wilson will
sound out General Pershing while he
is in France, and IL he is q Demo
crat quietly let 1t be known when
he comes back.
1t is freely predicted here that
Col. Roosevelt, Senator Hiram John

r. II. Akers, Chicago, manager Of
large automobile concern, has pre-
scented the results of some investiga-
tons relative to motor stages and
freight lines.
While Mr.. Akers believes in COM
mon with many other automobile men
that rural express lines have a future
before them, he has run across sew
eral problems which must be met and
solved before they can be complete
success. He advocates the establish
operating under the state government,
and regulating rates, competition, ETC.,
as protection to this very young In
dustry. Here Is a case which Mr..
Akers investigated:
"Not long ago one of our truck deal
erS in Washington saw a very feasible
untraversed motor express route be-
tween a small town and a fairly good
sized city. A young clerk in clothing
store had consistently saved his mon
ey-had been reading the govern
ment's propaganda-and saw In the
rural express idea an opportunity of
becoming his own bOss-a proprietor
Of a rural express line-with every
chance to expand. The young man
enlisted the help Of the truck dealer.
Together they canvassed the mer-
chants in the town and were assured
of enough business to make the line
pay, providing a reasonable amount
of freight could be secured in the
city to haul back.
"The young man purchased the
truck and soon had a thriving little

There is another advantage in the

as how they wear it, that counts; a
lesson that will be valuable in after
years when the matter of apparel be-
comes important to them. But where

MOTOR CARS MAY
DOOM RAILROADS
United States Railway Admins
tration Official Foresees Day
of Light Truck.
USEFUL FOR FARM HAULING
New Element In Transportation Prob
lem Should Be Considered While
Studying Reorganization of
Transportation System.

@. A. Morse, assistant director Of op-
Grafton of the United States rail-
way administration, and one Of the
best known railroad men in America,
believes that the motorcar may doom
the short-rail lines Of the country.
"The perfection of the motortruck,
together with the universal use Of the
automobile, has introduced new ele-
ment in the transportation problem
that should be taken into consideration
at this time, while studying the reor-
ganization Of the whole transportation
system" said Mr.. Morse.
where, therefore, the development
of the country for so miles on either
side Of trunk line has required the
construction Of light branch lines, 1t
is a question to be seriously consid-
cred whether this policy should be
continued or whether the products of
the farm should not be handled by mo-
torcar to the main lines"
Situation Not Surprising.
The situation described by Mr..
Morse is not surprising to makers of
motorcars designed especially for
farmers needs. Purchases by farmers
Of business cars of medium capacity
have increased enormously during the
last year. Their wide touring radius
and low haulage cost have enabled the
farmer not only to curtail freight
charges on purchases OF building ma
terial, implements, seed, groceries, etc.,
but to take immediate advantage of
the prices at the most advantageous
markets.
Even sheep and calves are rapidly
transported to market so miles dis
tant without the delay incident to the
use Of the railroads.
Horse Most Inefficient.
During the war prominent en-
gineer made the statement that the
horse was the most inefficient machine
used In America. No one has been
quicker to recognize this than the
farmer. The short haulage radius of
the horse, its low rate of speed, the
continually rising cost of feed and the
important fact that horse continues
to eat whether he is in the field or In
the stable made the farmer realize
that he could save money and gain
speed by motorizing his transporta-
ton. Having purchased business car
to replace his expensive horses. the
