PASS ENcER SHIP
FROM GERMANY

New York, Feb. 3.-The first pas
senger ship to sail from German
port to the United States since July
1914, and the first American passen-
ger ship to undertake a similar voy-
age, reached here today when the
American line steamer Manchuria
docked. She sailed from hamburg
January 8, calling at Southampton,
and brought 80 passengers, all from
the English port.
Capt.. Adrian Zeder, master of
the Manchuria, said he could have
filled his ship to overfowing at
Hamburg with passengers, for AM
erica had passport regulations and
restrictions as to travel permitted.
Applications were numerous and
Germans expressed regrets that they
could not come to this country.
1t required eight days, of "a hours
each, working three eight hour
shifts, to discharge at Hamburg the
5000 tons of cargo the Manchuria
took with her to Germany, officers of
the ship said. This work could have
ben done before the war in about
"a hours, and the delay was said to
be due to the listless manner in
which the German dock workers la
bored. The officers said they were
low of spirit, apparently suffering
from malnutrition, and displayed Ii
tie ambition.
Food was said to be scarce, but
those with money have no trouble in
getting all they want, ship officers
declared. A party of five from the
Manchuria dined at a prominent
Hamburg hotel and paid for their
meal 400 marks. On the other hand,
a story was told of one of the Ger
man dockers begging from the stew
ard of the ship a piece of frozen
beef, which he eagerly devoured raw
The Manchuria brought with her
from Germany 200 bags of mail and
a quantity of cargo, including phos-
pilates.

GERMAN WAR GUILTY
MUST BE TRIED II
ALLIES SEPARATELY

Paris, Feb. 2.-The council of
ambassadors today approved a draft
of the allied reply to the German
note asking moderation in the terms
of the peace treaty demanding sur
render of German war guilty.
The allies reply will point out, it
was learned, that Under the terms Of
the treaty trial of the Teutor w2r
guilty Of the allies must be separ-
ate from any German trial.
Baron Kurt Won Lersner, head OF
the German delegation here, will re-
ceive the allied reply tomorrow, ac-
ocrding to the councils plans.
At the request of the French rep
;resentative, who pointed out Ger
many is more than 100000 tons of
coal a month behind in her coal de-
liveries to France, the council de-
.cided to ask Germany to speed up
deliveries.
There now is more coal per capita
in Germany than in France, it was
claimed.
Hereafter the Belgian ambassador
will attend the councils meetings
when matters of interest to Bel
GUM come up for discussion.

EXTENDED STUDY
OF COTTON SEED;
MUCH SOLD ANNUALLY

Washington, Feb. 3.--Marketing
of cotton seed for planting purposes
should be made more highly spe-
cialized industry than it is and the
term planting cotton seed" should
be made to represent product of
infinitely greater intrinsic and poten-
tial value than ordinary cotton seed
or the average planting cotton seed
of today, the department of agricul-
ture has concluded after thorough
investigation of the subject. Cotton
seed sold annually in the United
States for planting purposes is ap-
proximately 100000 tons; the esti-
mated value in very recent years ap-
proaches $20,000,00O. That repre-
sents about 81 per cent. of the total
annual requirements for planting,
the remaining 50 per cent. being
produced on farms where it is used.
Approximately $4,000 tons or II
per cent. of the tota! planting re-
quirement, is obtained from seed
men, cottonseed oil mills, cotton gin
operators and small local dealers.
Seedmen handle about 10000 tons
of that. Under the present system
of handling cotton seed on the aver
age farm and at public gins, the de-
partment says, very little pure seed
of any variety or strain is available.
Standard commercial varieties Of
cotton sold for planting purposes
number less than 40, while the NUM-
ber of variety names used in exploit
ing the business during recent years
is we'll over 600. The practice of
remaining varieties has been abused
in some instances to the extent that
the variety name serves little more
than to advertise or identify the sell
er, the departments report declares.
Delinting of cotton seed for plant
ing purposes is being followed in
very. few instances, although it has
been advocated by some Of the state
agricultural experiment stations in
the south. It has proved 9 prac,;-
cal success from the standpoint of
both dealers and farmers wherever
it has been tried. 1t is of prime I'M
portance in improving the quality of
the seed, causing them to germinate
more quickly and to produce bette
stand. If delinters were installed
in custom gins, farmers might have
their cotton seed which they had Sc
lected to be used or sold for plant
ing purposes delinted during the gin
ming process at very little additional
cost. More than 3O,OOO,OO0 pounds
of linters, valued at 81 100000
which at the present time is wasted,
would be saved.
Quoting Of planting cotton seed
for sale per 100 pounds rather than
per bushel is urged and many other
phases of the industry thoroughly
discussed.

SENATOR LODGE TO
MOVE TO CONSIDER
TREATY IN SENATE


Of senate debate on the peace treaty
next week was regarderd as virtually
assured today when Republican lead
ers decided to join with the Demo-
Gratis in the movement to bring the
treaty back into the open senate.
Senator Lodge, the Republican
leader, gave notice today that he
would move 'on next Monday to
suspend the rules of the treaty. The
Democrats already had announced
they would make a similar motion
Tuesday of next week.
In the form proposed by Senator
Lodge the motion will require two
thirds majority, but the general pre-
diction was more than that number
would support it. Not only those
who favored ratification in some
form, but some of the treaty's ire
concilable foes are ready to vote to
reopen the debate.
Should Senator Lodges motion
fail, however, the motion of the
Democratic leaders the following day
will be in such form that only a
majority would be necessary to pass
it, the party leaders say, The Dem
ocrats contend that no suspension
of the rules would be necessary to
take up the treaty and that position
is expected to be upheld by Vice
President Marshall. On appeal from
his decision, a majority only would
be needed to sustain him.
Democrats Surprised.
Senator Lodges announcement,
made just after the senate met, az
parently astounded Democratic SEN
ators who asked him to repeat it.
The surprise was due to the fact that
last week Senator Walsh, of Mon
tana, gave notice on behalf of Sena-
tor Hitchcock that the latter would
move on February 10, to take up the
treaty. Senator Lodge thus forestsll-
ing Senator Hitchcock by setting the
date of his motion one day ahea1y
of Senator Hitchcock's.,
"I sincerely hope," said Senator
Lodge, in making his announcement,
"that unanimous consent will not be
refused. If it is, l shall make the
necessar! notion =
"Why wait so long," asked SEN
ator Ashurst, Arizona, Democrat.
"Why not tomorrow or next day."
"I'll say to the SENATOR" replied
Senator Lodge, "that I've given that
consideration. But so many senator
are absent that l think it better to
wait until next Monday"
Senator Lodges decision was
reached after conferences with other
Republicans and a study of the rec
ord of the treaty debate in the last
session.
Democratic and Republican lead
ers are understood to be preparing
reservations to offer as soon as the
treaty again is before the senate. Il,
some q'-arters it was predicted many
of the points at issue soon would be
eliminated by an agreement on the
basis of the work done by the in
formal bipartisan compromise COM
mittee. The possibility that open de-
bate would facilitate agreement on
article ten and the Monroe doctrine,
however, was regarded by many of
the senators as remote.

CHURCHES AND
SCHOOLS CLOSED
On Account of "Flu" City Board o.
Health Orders That Schools,
Churches and Theatres De
Closed and That There Be No
Public Gatherings OF Any
Kind


By order of the City Board OF
Health the ''fu' is epidemic in Alb
beville now.
Twenty-eight new cases were re-
ported here Tuesday, making total
of 1O5 altogether No cases of pneu-
monia have developed.
On account of the influenza epl-
demic the City Board of Health has
ordered, "that the schools, churches,
moving picture theatres be closed
and that no public meetings Of any
kind be hel1, aId that No skating be
allowed"
The city schools closed Tuesday
because of lack of teachers and the
scarcity of students. Only one high
school teacher reported for duty,
Miss Lotttc May VaugH, the rest,
Miss Julia Turner, Hiss Johnnie Mae
Lynch and Prof. MacTyiere Daniel
being confined to their rooms with
flu or Ia grippe. The action of the
Board of Health makes the closing
official.
DR.. J. R. Power, Chairman City
Board Of Health, said that the flu
was epidemic here in very mild
form and that they felt that there
was no reason for the public to be-
=, come unduly alarmed. Some cases in
the country were severe, and were
typical of last years epidemic, bu3>
that the type Of iu prevailing in
town, was mild.
He said that the City Beard of
Health took action as precaution-
ary measure and urged the public to
respond in spirit, thus reducing to
a minimum the chances of spread
ing the disease.
The order of the Board of Health
will remain in force until there i
a marked dimunition in the epidemic
here.
Enforce Quarantine.
Supt. Fulp has asked that all par
ents help in strictly enforcing the
quarantine as ordered by the City
Board of Health in So far as the
school children are concerned.
If the parents do not see that their
children are kept at home and away
from other children, the closing down
of the schools will work more harm
towards spreading the epidemic than
if the children were kept in school.
While. it is not definitely known by
the medical profession just how in
fiuenza is contracted, it may be as
sumed that the germ or organism is
contracted by close contact with car
riers or from persons already having
the germ in their bodies. So it is ex-
pedient for US to use every precau-
tion to prevent a further spread of
the disease and see that children do
not be permitted to gather or to play
together.
If the quarantine is accepted in
the same spirit in which it is levied
by the board of health, there is at
least hope that the schools may re-
> sumo their work in a few days.
The superintendent also has advis-
ed all the teachers to remain where
they are as every doctor admits that
\ the disease is most easily ontracted
on crowded trains, it may be
that some already affected would
carry the epidemic to their home
towns. 1t is also the intention of the
board of health to reopen the schools
just as soon as practicable, and each
teacher must be where they can be
quickly notified.

Gull the Early Noting Hen

All hens lay eggs in the spring and
early summer, but from now on there
is a big drop in egg production. In
order to save feed bills, and to give
the poultry flock better chance 1t
pays US to Gull out the poor layers
and keep only those chickens that will
pay US a profit.
The hen that lays only a few eggs
in the spring and early summer IS
usually very early molter. That IS,
she sheds her feathers anywhere from
July to the middle of September. This
is caused by the fact that she is a
poor layer; she lays her clutch OF
eggs and then starts molting her
feathers. The hen that is good
layer will start laying in the early
spring and will continue to produce
eggs during the hot summer months.
She is so busy manufacturing eggs
that she does not have time to shed
ner 1edtIlcTS dnu Pub VII q HS" >o~s
till late in the fall.
A hen that molts before the middle
of September is poor producer. She
has probably laid from 60 to 80 eggs
or hardly enough to pay for the feed
she has consumed. The hen that does
not molt till after the middle Of Sep
tember is usually heavy layer, and
has doubtless produced 100 or more
eggs before she has had time to start
molting. Late molters also shed their
feathers in a much shorter space c.
time than early molters.
In connection with the culling cam
paign that the County Home Demon
strations Agents are putting on in
Williamsburg County this fall the
early molting hen is the enc to be dis
carded. The old theory of keeping
the early molting hen has been explod-
ed. Save money and feed bills and
make the poultry flock one of the best
paying branches Of the farm. Either
kill or market the hen that sheds her
feathers before the middle of Septem-
Der.
