RODENTS HARM FRUIT TREES
Surface Of Ground and In Some
Cases Girde Trees.

Each winter considerable damage In
done to young fruit trees by rabbits
and field mice. They gnaw the bark
near the surface of the ground and In
extreme cases the trees are entirely
girdled. Often such injured trees
may be saved II suitable measures
are taken promptly; but n much bet
ter plan Is to protect the trees from
injury in the first place. This can be
done by placing around each one n
tree protector, made of closely-woven

peneals Resolutions of War Against
Germany and Austria-Hungary-
Senator McCumber Says He
Is Not With Majority.

WASHINGTON.-A joint resolu-
ton proposing repeal of resolutions by
congress declaring state of war with
Germany and Austria-Hungary was
reported out Friday by the senate for
eign relations committee by a strict
marty vote of nine to four.
introduced by Senator Knox, re-
publican, of Pennsylvania, as a sub
stitute for the republican resolution
recently passed by the house the
measure was formally presented to
the senate by Senator Lodge, republi-
can leader, with the announcement
by Senator Knox that he would open
debate on 1t.
Leaders of both parties predicted
several weeks of discussion with little
prospect for action until near the
time set for a recess for national con-
ventions. In some quarters the opin-
ion was expressed that President
Wilson, in the midst of the debate
might return the treaty of Versailles
to the senate.
Virtually solid democratic opposi-
ton to the substitute was predicted
by leaders of the party. Senator Nc
Cumber, republican, member of the
foreign relations committee, who did
not attend the meeting, said he, and
probably other republicans, would op-
pose.
Senator Shields. democrat, Tennes-
see, also was absent. Republicans
said the measure was designed to
meet objections raised in the house
that resolution declaring the war
ended would be unconstitutional and
beyond the power of congress.
A formal report only on the reso-
luton was filed by Senator Lodge
and Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska,
administration leader, in the treaty
fight, decided to submit no minority
report, but to present the opposition's
arguments during debate
President Will Veto.
WASHINGTON.-P Wilson
intends to veto the Knox peace reso-
luton, in case it should reach him,
and thereby make the peace treaty
and the league of nations the para
mount issue of the presidential cam
paign, in the opinion of leading demo

Improvement, The government should
furnish all possible aid in the way of
information and suggestion, create ia
vOrable conditions under which pro-
duction and distribution may take
place, and especially see that the
channels of trade are open and that
abuses do not exist.
"There Is no question:" continues
the secretary, "that everything which
can legitimately be done to eliminate
waste in marketing and to promote
orderly distribution should be done.
students of the matter seems to be
that we must approach the problem in
simpler terms, work along lines which
have clearly proven to be feasible, and
promote existing tendencies and prac-
tees.
A Field for Work.
Certainly we can proceed further
by state federal, and individual action
in standardizing the production, the
handling and the packing of farm
products and in promoting the use of
standard containers and proper stor-
age on farms, in transit and at market
centers. We can continue to furnish

the paramount Importance of making
available daily to producers facts as
to market prices, supplies, and de-
mands. The market news services of
the department of agriculture have
already clearly proved their value.
The department now conducts and op-
crates an inspection service on fruits
and vegetables covering 1G4 markets.
Help Cooperative Associations.
particularly must the federal and
state agencies omit nothing to pro-
mote farmers cooperative associa-
lions along right lines. Already, with
in a generation many such bodies
have appeared and rapidly expanded
II is estimated that they now market
annually approximately $1,000, 100000
worth of commodities. They are OF
very diverse forms and sizes. For
the most part, where they have been
successful they have centered their
activities on some one product. or on
related products, In Il given area. The
Indications are that with the continued
success of these enterprises and with
the proper educational effort and d.
rection they will develop even more
rapidly In the future. Through bull
letins, news articles, and lectures the
department of agriculture has endeav-
ored to stimulate these efforts.
"The department is requesting in
creased funds to make this extension
possible and will take the necessary
action promptly If the appropriations
are made"

American automobiles and trucks
are so predominant in Norway that
they give a distinct American touch
to the street traffic, states Trade
Commissioner Nels A. Bengtson of
the Bureau of Foreign and Domest-
ic Commerce of the Department of
Commerce in report just made
public. American agricultural ma
chinery is prominent. In general, the
high quality of American tools and
mechanisms is conceded, and the ex-
preston is frequently heard that
American goods rank first i'm quail
ity but are somewhat higher in price
than the same type of goods from
the United Kingdom, Sweden or Ger
many. The United States now ranks
first in the trade. in metal manu-
factures as a whole. Before the war
Germany ranked first, the United
Kingdom second and the United
States third. In the leather goods
trade, the United States has long
held the foremost place, but before
the war the imports from Ger
many were practically three times
as large as those from America.
Now, however, the United States
has swung into first place. During
recent years direct trade with the
United States in textiles and cloth
ing has been established, and the
United States has come into second
place. Before the war Germany and
the United Kingdom led in this
trade.
