The lessened drudgery of the farm

Library Circulation Small.
"A rural survey showed that the
average circulation of library books
in 965 homes scattered throughout
the state reached only one family
out of eight. The circulation OF
daily newspapers was twice as great
as any publication except farm jour
nails. In the 965 farm homes there
were 1881 farm magazines, $50 daily
papers, 265 women's magazines, l40
family magazines and only g chill
dren's magazines. This gave one
out of each five homes womans
magazine, one out of six, a family
and only one out of AZ
a children's magazine. One out OF
eight homes received library book.
Under the state law, counties. may
establish libraries with a main Office
in some town and with branches in
every rural school, Miss hammers
told of one county in which the
cost of this was 10 cents for each
ST 900 of taxable property. which
amounted to $l.25 a family each
year. :.

Wilson Decides
ToIgnore Plan Of
British Premier
President Will Not Follow
Suggestion of Lloyd George
In Regard to Armenian
And Turkish Tangle.
BY GRAFTON S, WILCOX.


Chicago Tribune Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Washington, Jan. 6.-President
Wilson, it was learned today, does
Suot expect to follow the suggestion
of Premier Lloyd George that he
send instructions to the American
high commissioner at CONSTANT
nople respecting steps he will take
in attempting to mediate between
Armenia and the Turkish national
ists.
The suggestion from Lloyd George
is at variance with the presidents
course announced in the appointment
of Henry Morgenthau as his per-
sonal representative to carry out the
mediation asked by the council of
the league of nations. The presi-
dent, it is said, proposes. therefore,
to carry out the mediation plan as
he has originally proposed it, not
withstanding the fact that the powers
thus far have shown little evidence
to support him wholeheartedly in the
undertaking.
Telegram Sent to Wilson.
Lord Curzon, British foreign min
ister. transmitted a telegram from
Lloyd George to Paul Hymans,
president of the league council. on
December 26. embracing the sugges-
ton that the president instruct the
American high commissioner at Con-
stantinople regarding steps to be
taken in the Armenian mediation.
This. was forwarded to the president
by Hymans, and the matter has since
been considered by the president and
officials of the State department
1t is pointed out here that when
the league of nations council on
November p asked the president to
undertake mediation of the Arme-
nian tragedy, the president promptly
accepted, saying he would undertake
it in his personal capacity. provided
the furnishing of troops or funds
would not be required, that he should
have the moral and diplomatic sup
port of all the governments repre-
sented on the council of the lea
oi nations, and that the council of
the league should suggest the ave
nue. of approach to the Turkish ma
tionalists and Armenia.
Inquiries Unanswered.
The council Of the league has
never answered President Wilson's
inquiries. Its failure to do so is not
taken to mean absolute disapproval
of President Wilson's acceptance Of
the invitation to mediate on condi-
tons entailing allied support. The
situation, however, is befogged by
the extraordinary resistance to the
treaty of Sevres by the Turkish ma
tionalists and the conclusion Of
peace between them and the Ar.
menians through the interference Of
the Russian soviet government. The
State department. in the meanwhile
has not been depending altogether
upor, the aid expected of TIE allied
powers in furnishing information,
but is gathering it from its own
agents, and President Wilson will
attempt to mediate despite the dis
couraging attitude assumed by the
British and French governments
and pro-allies. 1t is understood that
the presidents decision has been
known to Sir Auckland Geddes.
