between Denmark on one side and
Austria and Prussia on the other, put
an end to the war which the two latter
powers had been waging against the
former and tore the duchles of Schles-
wig and Holstein from the Danish
crown. The revolutionary spirit which
had swept Germany in 1S4S had grad
ually died away and n period of re-
action had set in. Nowhere was the
reaction so strong ms in PRUSSIA. In
1857 Frederick William, under whom
Prussia had suffered so many humili-

the spirit OF militarlsm. Bismarck
had already made for himself reputa-
ton MS the exponent of force and the
new king employed him as just the
man he wanted to work out his plans.
William proposed a great increase in
the Prussian amy and navy, and when
the Prussian parliament rejected his
plans sent for Bismarck and making
him minister-president, told him to
tame" the parliament. He tanned 1t,
or acted without 1t. as he pleased.
'The German problem" he told
them, could not be solved by parli-
mentary DEGREES, but by blood and
iron" He forced bills through by en-
ploying every means in his power; he
instituted the army reforms; he
framed n trade treaty with France
which Austria declared unfriendly and,
upon Austria's protesting, he recog-
nized the new kingdom of Italy. He
dispatched an ultimatum to the elector
of Hesse, which brought that poten-
tate TO reason with regard to the af-
fairs of his electorate.

Watchfulness is the key to success
in cases of invasion by army worms,
which are young of certain moths or
millers that fly only at night. The
eggs from which the army worms
hatch are laid commonly on grasses
or grasslike grains and the tiny cater
pillars, upon Matching, feed for several
days near the ground, hidden by over
hanging grasses or grains and thus
may escape notice until nearly full
grown, by which time they have be-
come widely distributed over the in
tested fields.
Upon the discovery of the pest in Its
younger stages depends very largely
the possibility of stamping out infes-
tations before serious injury to crops
has occurred. Meadows therefore
should be examined frequently, partic-
ularly those planted to timothy. blue
grass, wheat. and especially millet. to
discover the young worms.

TREATY OF FRANKFORT, 1871.
Term. Of Peace After the Franco. Pru..lan War.

The treaty Of Frankfort. which Off
cially put an end to the Franco-Prus-
sian war, was but a ratification of the
"preliminaries of peace" which had
been signed ut Versailles on February
20, 1871. Some matters of minor I'M
portance had not been settled at Yer
sailles, which were reserved fer the
"definitive treaty"
The ostensible cause of the Franco
Prussian war was the refusal of Prus-
sia to guarantee that a prince of the
house of Hohenzollern should not be a
candidate for the Spanish throne. In
reality both Paris and Berlin were
only waiting for an excuse and Bis
marck was making every effort to
bring about rupture. Official rela-
tions becoming strained and the Prus-
sian army having mobilized and mp
preached the French frontier. the EN-
peror Napoleon III declared war on
July 10, 1870, the chamber of deputies
having before that voted war sup
nly and the reserves having been
called out. Prussia was Joined In the
war by the other German states and
the Teutonic armies had nm unbroken
series of victories that brought them
70 Paris. which city surrendered on
January 2s. 1871.
Grayelotte was fought on August 1S
of 1870 and the French emperor with
his army surrendered mt Sedan on
September 2. 1870.
Bismarck Dictated Peace Terms.
A republic had been proclaimed In
Of hn
peror and Theirs was at the head or
it. Upon being elected as chief ex-
ecutiye by the assembly sitting at Bor-
deaux, the provisional French govern
ment had already effected an nrmistice
with the Germans. Already the king
of Prussia had been proclaimed Ger
man emperor In the halls of Versailles.
THEIRS met Bismarck at that splendid
naIace of the grent Louis and the pre-
i,minaries of peace were signed on Feb
ruary 90. The terms were dictated
by Bismarck. Only on one point did
Thiers rebel. He refused to sign
peace ceding to Prussia the fortified
citv of Belfort, which commands the
massage between the vosges and the
Jura. This was the only strong fort
ress in France which had not been re-
duced by the Germans. If now hand
ed over to Germany 1t would open
to her path into Burgundy and the
Lyonnais which her armies could tread
at will. Thiers had struggled to re-
tain Metz, but Bismarck would not lis

and were resolved to keep 1t.
Bismarck yielded. Prussia was not
quite as ready in 1871 to defy the
whole world MS she was in 1914. Be-
sides, the city of Belfort was entirely
French by population and Bismarck
had already said with regard TO Metz:

but to seed them to some kind of cover

1t is advisable to run the crop rows

In case the worms are not discov-
cred until they have begun to travel
in mass, usually they can be destroy
ed by furrowing or ditching complete
ly around the infested area.
Summary Of Control Measures for the
Army Worm.
l.. Watch fields of growing grass
and grain carefully, especially the
meadows. during the spring and early
summer months, to discover the army
worms before they become full grown
and spread over the entire farm.
When the worms nre discovered at
work, do not lose a minute, but attack
them vigorously by means of the meas
ures outlined in foregoing paragraphs.
2. Poison them by spraying crops
not intended for forage with one
pound of paris green to so gallons of
water, or with two pounds Of pow
dered arsenate Of lead to so gallons
of water. In case the paris green is
used on tender plants, like corn, add
two pounds of freshly-slaked lime to
80 gallons of the mixture. This is to
prevent burning the tender plants.
Where spraying Is not practicable,
the use of the poisooed-bran bait al
ready mentioned Is strongly recon-
mended.
3. In case the worms are crawling

soil is moved down the side slopes by
cultivation. AS result, the terraces
are more liable to break, and much
more maintenance work Is required
than where the rows are run parallel
to the terraces.
All terraces that are cultivated
should be plowed at least once year,
and the soil should be thrown to the
center. In this way the height Of the
terrace Is kept up and the base may
lie broadened each year.
Steep land that washes badly be-
tween the terraces should not be cul-
tivated. The terraces should first be
well built and the entire field seeded
to grass and used for pasture or
meadow.
When it is found necessary to cross
farm road in terracing field, the
building of the terraces should be con-
tinued across without regard to the
road. Where the terraces are as much
as 20 feet broad, no provision need be
made for passing traffic across them,
but they should be carefully main
tnined to prevent possible breaks.
Where the terraces are not more than
ten feet broad. considerable incOnveni-
ence to traffic and injury to the ter
races generally results where no pro-
vision for crossing is made. Some
times 'tiie water is carried under the
roadway by culvert. but the principal
objections to this are that the capac-
ity of the waterway is greatly reduced
and the free flow of the water through
the culvert is often obstructed by
stalks or other trash washed from the
field. A wooden bridge spanning the
channel, so as not to reduce very much
the cross-sectional area of the water
way, makes more desirable and sat
isfactory crossing.

Whale Fat Is Eaten.

States commissioner of fisheries states
that In 1914 Denmark used 2O,O0O bar
rels of hardened whale fat in the mar-
gurin industry.
Preparations are under way in Nor
way for utilizing this material in the
same way. The product is said to keep
and taste we'll. Whale fat is even bet
Ter suited for making lard.
In this connection it is stated that
experiments are in progress in the
United States with fish oils to deter
mine the possibility of making them
suitable for use in the human dietary.
