In feeding horses than any other class
of live stock. Horses of the same
weight may have different feed require

study the individuality of the animals.
If the horse is not doing well on a
ration a slight change should be made,
nut an abrupt change may cause diges-
tive disturbances.

body tissues, will be drawn upon with
a consequent loss I'm body weight and

the horse will be so weakened that he
will be unable to perform his work
proftably. and also will be especially
liable TO disease.
No Universal Feed.
No feed or combination of feeds will
meet conditions in all parts Of the
country, and no feed or mixture is suit

too little is being fed, or that the ra-

"sign Anything!" Cry the Huns.

Mannheim's manifestation of anx-
iety concerning the peace prospect is
not merely local affair due to the
proximity of that city to the new
frontier. from which an allied advance
is to be expected in case Germany re-
fuses to- sign the peace treaty. The
same sentiment is reported to prevail
in all parts of Germany. In Berlin
last Wednesday half million people,
it is stated, massed in the streets and
parks and demanded the immediate
signing, of the treaty. One banner dis
played by the demonstrants read: "We
have had enough. peace, for Gods
sake.: Another one read: "Sign any
thing that brings us peace!" Chan
ceAer Scheidemann addressed crowd
ofsgovernment socialists, who showed
NO enthusiasm for his declaration of
resistance to the peace treaty. Into
the eyowd marched procession of in
dependent socialists who broke up the
meeting and swept Scheidemann's au-'
ditprs along with them.
.Bumhtless the Ebert government
knows that it cannot survive a refusal
to sign at Versailles. The chancellor,
DR.. Dernburg of unpleasant memory
in this country, Count Won Bernstorff
of still more unpleasant memory here,
and Matthias Erzberger, who seems to
be Germany's handy man at present,
have gone to Spa to meet Broekdorff-
Rantzau and decide upon the final
wording of the counter proposals. But
they know perfectly well if they know
anyfhing-whi is always to be stated
with some reserve-that the counter
proposals will be rejected and that
on the expiration Of the final time
limit they must either sign or renew
the,war. And in the present state of
the public mind in Germany renewal
of the war is suicide for the German
government
q is to be noted that, so far as the
dispatches disclose, these matters re-
spectipg the peace treaty are exelu-
sivsly In the. hands of the statesmen
rather than the military personages of
Gsfmany. Apparently the army chiefs
are not being consulted. They may
be rendering their advice privately re.
speeding the possibility of resistance
to allied attack in case the treaty is
rejected, but presumably this matter
is being settled by civilians, and the
final Judgment of those civilians will
probably. be that the present treaty is
the best that Germany can possibly
Get and that Aesop's fable of the dog

Washington in Summer.

Let not the hearts of the new mem
befssc the House and Senate be cast
down at the prospect of spending the
sumTff in Washington. The town is

some folks to seaside or mountain top.
True, there are others who make a

gree, summer is summer even at popu-
Lar Fgmwer resorts. Whether the sun

everywhere, and is industrious about
the business during certain months.

its ahare. But the share is never un.
duly large, and the quality never un-
duly trying. One can get along, do

and found it endurable. The fact is,
the members were so busy they had
little time to think about the Their
mometer. Public questions were Of a
kind to fix all attention. The Sixty
fourth Congress had to redeem the
promises which had brought the de-
mocracy into power; and they were
numerous. Tariff revision and cur
rency reform alone were sufficient to
make the work Of the legislators at
tractive.
The Sixty-fifth Congress had to do
with the var; with putting millions
of men into uniforms and raising bill
lions of money for their support. 1t
was very exciting employment. Mem
bers had so much else to think and
talk about, they neither thought nor
talked much about the weather. They
worked with a will in all weathers.
All were alike to them.
The Sixty-sixth Congress has to do
with peace, and the restoration of
things after two years of war. 1t is
a great task, and as fascinating as
difficult. 1t has many angles, and will
be approached from all of them. We
shall witness some animated scenes;
listen to some animated debates; see
recorded some very memorable results.
There will be something doing every
day and right along. "a good time
will be had by all"
Upon the whole, the spring, which is
closing, has been cool. The summer
may follow suit. But whether it does
or not there will be so much of in
terest in hand On Capitol Hill, neither
legislators nor leokers-on are likely to
spare themselves, or complain if the
sun should not spare their collars.

The Senate District Committee.

Senator Sherman's designation as
chairman of the Senate District COM
mittee is dictated by seniority, and he
accepts the duty as a responsibility
put upon him. Certain asperities aside,
Senator Sherman has always shown .
kindly disposition toward the National
Capital. He is keenly interested in
District affairs, has in the course Of
his service in Congress studied the
local situation, and has become widely
acquainted. Just at present he mani
tests impatience with the tendency to-
ward high prices prevalent here as else
where as result Of the war. He shares
with many others-with a majority of
the people of Washington, indeed-the
belief that there should have been
legislation to prevent extortion in
rentals. 1t was not the fault of the
Senate that such a law, workable and
equitable to both property owners and
to tenants, was not enacted in season
to be effective in the local emergency
Of sudden increase Of population. Re
Gently Senator Sherman has expressed
himself forcibly on the subject, with a
suggestion that if there is developed
here a disposition to take advantage
of the declaration of peace and the
consequent lapse of the Salisbury law
in the form Of radical rent increases
he will work to have the capital moved
to another city. Of course, such . con-
tingency will not arise. And mean
while it is to be believed that the Sen
ate District committee, under the
craftsmanship of Mr.. Sherman, will Pre-
coed eonstr4ctiyely along the lines Of
capital development and adequste
maintenance and press for the enact
ment Of much needed District iegisla-
ton, which has been blocked for many
months by adverse conditions.

sued orders to the same effect" Except
for one small unit which failed to re-
ceive instructions until ten minutes
after II, all firing ceased exactly at the
minute of the armistice, and no Amer
lean soldiers were. subsequently killed
in action. Gen. Pershiug declares that
if Frehch or British officers ceased fir
ing on their fronts before II o'clock
they did so without proper authority.
This should settle the controversy
that has arisen over the suggestion
that American lives were needlessiy
lost on armistice day. AS Q matter of
fact, every shot fired on the whole
front on both sides after the actual
| signing of the armistice was a waste.
Every life that was lost in consequence
of that firing was thrown away need
lessly. But it was impossible to put
the armistice into effect Immediately.
Some time had to be given to pass the
word along the entire front-that great
stretch of many scores of miles from
the North sea to the Alps. It was IN
safe to trust the enemy. The allied
armies had to maintain their offensive
formation to the last minute to pre-
vent treachery. Considering all the
conditions, it is remarkable that the
armistice was SO quickly made efec-
tive and that so little loss Of life oc-
Cured after the signing of the articles

The German note on economic con-
ditions to the peace conference states
that millions of Germans would emf
CRATE if they could, to escape the post
bellum burdens Of their fatherland.
The unfattering opinion of the Ger
man conferees toward German patri-
otism in Germany's self-incurred hour
of bitterness may be accurate. But
even SO, other impediments than pros
pective anti-German immigration laws
stand in the way of any general ex-
odus from the other side of the Rhine
any general @eave it to George" atti-
tude on the part of considerable num-
bers of individual Germans.
The motive behind such a movement,
the probability of which is entirely
speculative, would be an economic one.
It would be good economies for a very
small number of Germans. A small
number could dispose of their German
property holdings at reasonable fig
ure, and move toward the door marked
"exit" if nothing else stood in the
way. But the German note speaks of
millions and Max Harden estimates the
number at from twenty to twentyfour
millions. No such emigration could be
effected without proh;bitive decline
in property values in Germany. In
| other words the monetary losses in
volyed in disppsing of individual prep
erty holdings prior to moving would
more than offset the prospects Of even
tual monetary gain to be secured by q
move to another land. To consider
able extent then the problem is a self
regulating one.
In SO far as it is not a sslf-regulat-
ing proposition the United States
needs full protection. There will be
small incentive to individual Germans
to epigrate. to France or Belgium or
Italy for long time to come as q
means toward the betterment of his
economic condition. Russia, in spite of
its present unhappy decentralization,
would be undoubtedly the goal for a
portion of the emigrants. The pros
peet of any considerable tendency to-
ward German colonization in Russia il
disquieting one, difficult of control at
the present time. 1t may be assumed
that it is being given full considera-
tion at Versailles.
But by far the greater number of
outgoing Germans would turn their
eyes westward, toward the republics of
North and South America. Working
on the principle that post-bellum an
tagonism to their race could soon be
overcome through the meeting of An
increasingly serious labor shortage,
and recognizing the inducements in the
form of economic emancipation offered
in the United States, this country
would be their most promising goal.
The need for legislation purposed to
discourage any such ambitions should
be the subject for prompt and atten-
tive consideration on Capitol Hill.

The Clark Boom.

The easy and emphatic defeat of the
