Attitude Of Prominent Families.
The situation in Ireland has pro-
duced some singular personal con-
trasts. Foremost amongst these is
that presented by Lord French, the
Lord Lieutenant, and his sister, Mrs.
Despard. The later has identified her.
self Fundamentally with the popular
party in Ireland. She has just paid a
visit to Cork and on her return ex-
pressed the greatest horror at the
scenes of misery and desolation which
she had witnessed and which she de-
clared were even more appalling than
she had supposed. Mrs. Despard in
tends to visit other devastated dis
tricts and will also make a study of
Dublin school children before return
ing to England.
Lord Middleton has been a lifelong
Unionist. Recently, he has been pre-
pared to accept limited form of
Home Rule without partition. His
sister, the Honorable Albinia Broder-
lex, is pronounced Republican. Miss
Penrose Fitzgerald of Rushbrook,
County Cork, whose relatives are all
Unionists, is Sim Feiner. The
Gore-Booths, a leading Sligo family,
are Unionists; but Madam Markie-
vicz, one of them, is the Republican
member for one of the Dublin divis-
ions. She is now undergoing two
years imprisonment. She became a
Catholic some time ago. Mr.. Erskine
Childers is an Englishman and near
relative of a former Chancellor of the
Exchequer in the British Cabinet. He
is an active supporter of Sim Fein
and has taken up his residence per-
manently in Ireland. Colonel O'Cal.

PEACE IN IRELAND BEING HALT
Ed BY RELIGIOUS HATRED
HILAiRE HELLoc WARNS ENG
LisHMEN OF DANGER OF THEIR
COURSE - FLAWS CONTEMPT.
IDLE CHIEF SECRETARY AND
HIS HlRELiNGS.
(By N. C. w. C. News Service

(By N. C. w. C. News Service.)
For the moment, at all events, the
negotiations such as they were, to Sc
cure peace in Ireland, have broken
down. It may now be definitely
stated that the initial step was taken
by leading Catholic merchant in one
of the provincial towns. Archbishop
Clune then came upon the scene and,
at the invitation of the Prime Minis
ter, acted as intermediary between
the British government and Sim Fem.
Next, and during these negotiations,
came the exchange of messages be-
tween Mr.. Lloyd George and Father
OFlanagan, eliminating in personal
interview in London at which Lord
Justice O'Connor, the principal Cath
Ollie Judge in the Court of Appeals in
Ireland, was present. Unfortunately,
the negotiations proved abortive.
DR.. Cohalon, Bishop Of Cork, states
that it is his impression that Mr.. De
Valera had returned from America on
peace mission; but there can, he re-
marks, be little hope in that direction
while every attempt at peace is taken
as sign of weakness and as reason
for turning deaf ear to Ireland's de-
mands. He makes this comment:
"Since the disappointment of the ex-
pectatiOns based on the recent nego.
tiations the position seems to be quite
hopeless"
Hiiare BelIoc's Views
Mr.. E1ilaire Belloc, the distin-
guished Catholic author and military
expert, writes to the press pointing
out that foreign opinion everywhere
regards the burnings, torturings, fog
gings and shootings in Ireland as es-
sentially the persecution of Catholic
people because they are Catholic, and
as the outcome of an almost insane
religious hatred"
He goes on to say: "That false
opinion has taken root, and it is be-
coming a really formidable handicap
to the English throughout the world;
and it is creating in regard to this
country (England) a legend which
may do very great harm in the imme.
date future. take it that the origin
of this widespread, and by this time
fixed, opinion among our rivals, our
enemies, and even our friends abroad,
is due to the inability of the polite
ians to control and govern very
small section of the Subjects of the
Grown for whose conduct they are as
much responsible as for the conduct
of any others of the vast majority to
whom these things are odious. That
small section is the organized Orange
group s. It's chief centers of
activity are Canada and the northeast
corner of Ireland, and its motive, for
us exceedingly Injurious, is nothing
more, statesmanlike MAN "a blind ha-
tired of the Catholic Church. It must
be clear to anyone acquainted with
| the details of what is going on in Ire
land that the actual objects of the
policy now being pursued have been

KNIGHTS Of COLUMBUS news /

At the request of the state officers
of the Knights of Columbus, The Cath
Ollie Bulletin will, each week, run a
column of news pertaining to the
state activities of the order.
Official Motion Pictures: Mr. J. c.
Whelan, state deputy X. of c., writes
as follows:
The official Knights of Columbus
motion pictures of His Holiness Pope
Benedict XIV celebrating Mass in the
Vatican gardens for the recent K c..
pilgrimage to Rome, together with
many other interesting scenes of the
trip, are now available for exhibition
in Minnesota. These films have been
purchased by the Minnesota State
Council at an expense of $3.50, in the
hope that each Council in the state
will want to arrange for their show
ing.
These pictures of the Pope are com.
plete-the first time closeup picture
of any Pope has ever been made
They show His Holiness entering the
gardens and yesting for Mass, impart-
ing the solemn apostolic blessing and
leaving with the American Knights
for trip through the famous Vatican
gardens.
Other scenes show the Knights at
Belleau Woods with General Mangin,
at Rheims Cathedral with Cardinal
Lucon, the gala reception at Metz
and the unwilling of the X. C. Statue
of Lafayette after review of the
French army by Marshall Foch.
There are four reels, including the
latest pictures. to be received in this
country from Ireland.
These pictures must not be shown
in connection with any other films nor
under any auspices except knights of
Columbus or Catholic. The films run
about an hour, and it is suggested
that a musical program be arranged
of religious or patriotic nature.
Dates can, be arranged through the
state deputy's Office. Because of the
demand for these films, they cannot
be shipped to any Council until spe.
cific date has been agreed upon SO
that no time will be lost.
In places where Catholic institu.
tons, such as schools and colleges
have moving picture equipment, ar.
engagements can be made to permit the
use Of these pictures. Non Catholics
and the public in general should be
invited to see these films.

TO GROW SUFFICIENT sILAGE
Experts Assert II Is Better to Care
fully Figure on Silo to Fit
Herd Of Cows.

(Prepared by the United States Depart.
ment of Agriculture.)
The planting season is the time
when the dairy farmer should arrange
to see that he has crops enough to fill
his silo. AS case in point, Nissis-
sippi farmer failed to take this matter
into consideration when he bought a
silo of go tons capacity, for he found
that he had corn and sorghum for
only 20 tons of silage; and since, more
over, he had only cows, he decided
he had made mistake, and tried to
sell his new silo instead Of setting 1t
up. A field man from the dairy dlvi-
sion of the United States Department
of Agriculture however, persuaded
him to keep it until the next year, and
to put up small stave silo for imme-
date use. He did so, and found 1t
such help in feeding his cows cheap
~ that he bought more land and re-
solved to enlarge his herd to so cows,
and thus make good use of his larger
silo.
Both the height and the diameter
of the silo must be considered The
proper diameter of the silo depends
upon the quantity of silage to be fed
daily; and this quantity will vary
with the size of the herd. The silage
should be fed out fast enough to re-
move it from the top of the silo at the
rate Of ~ to inches day, depend
ing upon climatic conditions. The
warmer the weather the more silage
must be removed from the surface
daily in order to prevent spelling. For
the winter feeding season 1t is safer
to figure upon removing 2 inches daily
than any smaller amount.
A common error in building is to
make the diameter too large for the
size of the herd. The weight Of a
cubic foot Of silage varies according
to the pressure to which 1t is SUBJ
jected, but in silo 30 feet high the
weight per cubic foot averages about
40 pounds. So, by knowing the guam
tity of silage to be fed daily, it is pos
sible to estimate what the diameter
Of the silo should be to permit the
removal Of a certain number of inches
each day. The table below shows the
proper diameter Of the silo, on basis
of 40 pounds Of silage per cubic foot,
Audubon County journal. (Exira, Iowa) 1884-1993, 1921-06-16
Numer of animals that may
be fed. allowing

A 90O-pound COW ordinarily con-
sumes 30 pounds Of silage day. and
1,200-pound one about 40 pounds.
Yearlings eat about one-half as much
as mature animals; fattening cattle,
,25 to IS pounds for each 1000 pounds
live weight.
1t happens, sometimes. that silo
is not wholly filled, because there is
not enough corn planted for silage,
and there are not enough of other
crops make up the deficiency. The
amount Of silage that may be OBJ
tanned from an acre of corn varies
from to 20 tons. A fair allowance
on average land is 8 tons per acre.
Hence for Cotton silo 1t might be
well to plant or 10 acres Of corn.
1t is by all means best to lay out
land enough in silage crops to fill the
s1lo to the very top; and If there Is
any doubt about how much will be
needed, to allow margin Of safety.
remembering that the season may cut
down the yield If this as well as OF
other crops. On the other hand, If
there is TOO much corn or sorghum
TO so into the silo. the excess can be
cut as dry fodder, and other crops
can be made into hay.
Two bulletins issued by the Depart
ment of Agriculture are useful in this
connections; one la Farmers Bulletin
1855, Homemade Silos; and the other
is Farmers Bulletin 57s, The Maxine
and Feeding of Silage.

Wonderful Telescope.

The excellence of the big Lick tele-

when the conditions are good on
Mount Hamilton, are attested by the
statement of one authority that double
stars, whose components are nearly
equal in brightness, can be measured
If the distance between them exceeds
one-tenth of a second of arc. What
this means in accuracy of definition
may be understood by remembering
the fact that one-tenth of a second is
equal to the apparent diameter Of an
