FROZEN SEED

Wheat which has been stored in the
bin so it has been subject to moisture,
freezing and thawing, after sitting
snow and driving rains, will be sure to
have large percentage of the grains
entirely dead and many others so weak
that it will be impossible for them to
send up plants sufficiently strong to
be of much crop value.
Test your seed in blotter. 1t should
grow 95 per cent strong.

ARMY UNIFORM SALES
DISCUSSED BY BAKER
Secretary Of War Replies to Re-
cent Attacks on Disposal
of Sunp1ies.

\ Secretary Of War Baker has issued
the following statement in reply to
recently published criticisms Of the
policy OF the War Department in the
sale of surplus uniforms and other
surplus property:
"A small quantity Of uniform cloth
i ing of large sizes, being in excess
Of the needs of the Army after the
armistice. has been sold as surplus
property. To provide uniform cloth
| ing of proper sizes it was found
terial on hand and in some instances
small amounts of small sized under
clothing were purchased in the open
market. The policy of the War De-
partment in selling surplus and re-
claimed property is to advertise ex-
throughout the country sufficient
time in advance of the sale to en-
able all interested to compete. Every
effort is made to allow the public
at large to purchase whatever ar
ticles are placed on sale, and as far
back as August, 1913, the War De-
partment issued instructions that in
SO far as practicable. the surplus ma
terial be disposed of to the ultimate
consumer and that no firm, corpora.
| ton, jobber, ETC., should Nbe consid-
cred until all other channels had been
exhausted.
up to date the War Department
| has sold surplus property which orig
inal1y cost over $1,000. 100000, at a re-
covery of So per cent. For instance.
textiles were sold amounting to about
| $113, 100000, with recovery of Is
| per cent The War Department takes
| every precaution to protect its in
terest by not allowing any purchaser
| to obtain the articles bought unless
a substantial amount is deposited
with the order.
I'm as large an organization as
that engaged in the disposal of sur
| plus property it is inevitable that
some small irregularities will occas-
iona1ly occur. Whenever these are
brought to the attention of the War
Department, proper corrective meas
ures are Immediately applied"

says:
My government confidently looks to
the government of the United States to
enter protest with Great Britain now
as 1t did with other states under similar
circumstances in the past, such as the
successful protest against the arrest and
deportation of the burgomaster Of Brus-
sells. The United States heretofore used
Its influence in Roumania, In Russia.

elsewhere to save Innocent people from
barbarous maltreatment by oppressors.

when. therefore, as Premier Lloyd
George admits, and as recent events in
Ireland make manifest an organized
system of atrocities is inaugurated by
the armed forces Of an alien govern

should not fail to adhere to its tradi-
tional policy by protesting officially
against these acts of barbarism which

BRITISH REVOKE ORDER
AFFECTING OIL SHARES
Aliens May Not Purchase Them,
the State Department Is
Advised,

Reyocation has been ordered by
the British government Of the regu-
lation prohibiting aliens from pur-
chasing shares in British mines and
oil fields, the State Department was
advised by American Consul General
Skinner at London.
Department officials expressed the
belief that the revocation applied to
a regulation of the defense of the
realm act, put into effect during the
| war, which made 1t unlawful for any
British citizen. without the Consent
! of the board of trade, to transfer to
| any alien or to a. foreign controlled
| company any interest in a company
controlling any mine or oil field
wherever situated.
By a general license OF the board
of trade issued September 1, 1918,
such prohibited transactions were
again permitted, except as they
might relate to mining or oil prop
erty in the United Kingdom or to Sc
curities issued by companies con-
trolling such properties in the United
Kingdom. The consul generals dis
patch indicated that this remaining
restriction had been removed.

DISCUORAGING NEWS
 RECEIVED BY POLES
Americans Warned to Leave
 Capital City

Warsaw, Aug. 3.-(By the Associ- ated Press. )-News of the progress of armistice negotiations between Polish and Russian Bolshevik representa- tives is awaited impatiently by War saw but at 6 o'clock tonight no re- ports had been received. Meantime with news from the front rather dis couraging, many fore igners prepared to leave the city in the event of its imminent capture by the soviet armies.
 Word was passed around among Americans here upon advice from Washington that those desiring to re- main in Warsaw should it appear the Bolsheviki would take the capital would do so al their own risk. Indi- cations are that few Americans will remain, as applications for passport vises have more than doubled at the American consulate since the begin ming of the soviet offensive. Ut is said that 5000 vises are passed upon each week. Many of these had pre- viously planned to cross the Atlantic but the recent Bolshevik activity has had d tendency to increase their de- sire to depart.
 Crowds damned the streets near the consulate on Sunday and extra gen. darmeS were stationed there to maln- tain order and to divert traffic to other streets. Lines of applicants during the last few days have ex- tended around the entire block in one direction and nearly around an adJa- cent block.
 As a war measure the military au- thorities have prohibited the sale of alcoholic beverages with the excep- ton of beer m the Warsaw district. The order will stahd until revoked and was based on a law passed by the Polish Diet last April. Music in cafes has been prohibited and many musi- clans. actors and artists have gone to the front.
