NO GREAT IMPORTANCE is
VIEW EXTERNALLY.
COUNTING ON PROCLAMATION
Next Payment on Reparations viii be
Met. but Doubt Exists as to That
Falling Due in March.

Washington. - Germany's cabinet
changes are purely political and not
economic.
Unless the new Chancellor adopts
an attitude OF hostility toward fulfill
ment of German obligations to the AL
lies, the new ministry will be Of no
particular importance externally.
This is the view taken in Washing
ton where the approaching proclama-
ton of peace between Germany and
the United States is counted upon to
help any new ministry shows the same
good faith as did Chancellor Wirth in
attempting to meet reparation pay
ments.
The cabinet change in Germany
comes at a critical moment. The next
payment due the Allies from Germany
is November Is. Official reports have
indicated for some time that Germany
would pay the installment due next
month though there has been some
doubt about her ability to meet the
next one in March. The feeling here,
however, has been that if the German
cabinet were properly supported it
would be able to consolidate the var
ious elements in the situation so as
to get by the March payment too.

MANS WORK BEATEN BY ANTS

their leaves compelling them to aban-
don the garden. Another location was
selected, surrounded by an irrigation
ditch, but before long the ants again
appeared. The officers thought that
they had tunneled under the water, and
one of them, Skeptical of their ability
to accomplish such an engineering feat
investigated. He drained the irrigat-
ing stream (some four or five feet
wide), dug up the bed and traced the
insects trail from their point of enter
ing the garden to their old nest on the
opposite side. There are also other &C
counts of their making galleries under
the water.
A farmer near Austin, to get rid of
depredatiOnS Of an immense colony of
these ants near his home, had set his
men to dig it up. To reach the central
nest he had traced the ants from a
tree inside his home premises, which
they had stripped Of leaves, to a point
$50 feet distant.
The nest occupied space as large
as q small cellar, the lowest and main
cave being as large as a -four barrel.
From this point radiated the avenues
over which the ants marched on their
raids.
Doctor McCoOk, with the assistance
of a civil engineer, proceeded to SUI
vey the main course Of the insects. In
some places the tunnel was as deep as
six feet beneath the surface, the aver
age depth being about eighteen inches.
AT the "exit hole" 4S4 feet from the
nest, the tunnel was two feet deep.
Besides this main line there were two
branch tunnels which DETECTED from
the trunk line to gain entrance to a
peach orchard 1875 feet distant.

EXPECT PATIENT TO SURVIVE
United States Suffers Chiefly From Ex-

Recent Disasters.

New YOrk.-The old spherOid known
as the earth is emerging from what

an intermittent fever, manifested In

many widely separated parts. from

confident the patient will recover.
Meanwhile the United States for the

from an excess of high temperature
and q deficiency of moisture, cOndi-
ton unprecedented in the fifty years
history of the weather bureau.

The persistent higher temperatures,
fer which a. number of speculative ex-
plantations have been given, began in
August, 1920, and for the succeeding
twelve months there was an average
monthly excess above normal of "a
degrees. March, 1921, an unusually
warm spring month. had an excess av-
erage of 1913 degrees. The first slight
break in the record occurred last Au-
gust, which was slightly below normal.
In the nine months period beginning
in October, 1918, and ending i'll July.
1919, the average monthly temperature
oh N
this was a record until sun spots, sea
bottom upheavals or other hypothetical
causes sent the mercury still higher.
The highest average temperature ever
recorded in this country for the month
OF March, weather officials say, was
48.3, in March, 1921.
The average temperature for April,
1926 degreeS-WaS the WarmeSt for
that month in half a century. May and
June were not unusual, but July broke
all records for the preceding eleven
