Paris, Sept. 15.-The newly devel-
oped crisis in the reparations ques-
ton became so acute tonight upon re-
ceipt of Berlin advices that Germany
had categorically refused to give up
the 10O,000,000 gold marks demanded
by Belgium, as guarantee of the six
months note issue on account of rep
aratiors, that the members of the
commission decided the situation has
gone beyond their control and require
the immediate attention of the Allied
premiers.
Sir John Bradbury, British men,
Der of the commission, is proceeding
to London to lay the matter in detail
before Premier Lloyd George, while
NJ. Poincare has assumed command
of Ehe French side Of the negotiation.
The Italian and Belgian premiers
also are handling the situation for
their countries.

of gold not later than tomorrow in
stead of being merely diplomatic
tmaneuver to permit further discus

pears TO be stern demand with the
tull backing of the French and Bel
gian governments.
VI. Dubois, who is president Of the
commission, will exercise his right to
cast the deciding vote in the event
that Great Britain and Italy oppose
such declaration, as is probable. The
memoirs Of the cabinet took a very
critical view Of the situation and
gave explicit instructions to NJ. Du-
bois to demand action by the com.
mission unless the gold is deposited.
French policy is being directed to-
ward formal assertion from the
commission of Germany's voluntary

The spectacle OF three comets
swinging through the skies is at
forded astronomers for the first
time in years.
To the two comets, Skjellrups
and Raids that have been under
observation for weeks, another was
added Thursday. The tailed star,
known as Perrine's, making anoth-
er visitation to our stellar system
after an absence Of two generations
has been sighted again.
Announcement of the rediscovery
of Perrine's comet was made by

spotted the wanderer Nov. %.
The position which he gave is
southeast of the star Procyon and
about midway between the constel-

magnitude the comet is compare
lively faint, but in point OF speed
the daily motion was said to be
fairly fast. Its fight is in a south
easterly direction.

NAPIER GRASS

Napier grass is native Of the Afri-
can tropics. 1t is perennial and
grows in clumps of from 20 to 200
stalks, an inch in diameter and 10 to
IS feet tall. The seed are very light
and fluffy and are produced on yellow
spikes or heads when the plant is
nea ing maturity. A more slender va
riety is called Merker grass.
Satisfactory use has been made OF
Napier grass for hay, soiling and 81
lage In New South Wales it is claim
ed that this grass makes a splendid
quality of hay when cut 3 to feet
high. In experiments conducted at the
Georgia Experiment Station very good
silage was made from Napier grass,
although some of the stems were too
woody for a good grade of silage. 1t
might be possible to avoid this diff
Guilty by cutting the stems earlier 1t
is as soiling crop that this grass looks
especially promising 1t should be cut
when young and succulent, so as to
obtain green feed of the highest quail
ty and to encourage the plants to till
err So far as the writer has been able
to ascertain no information is avail
able in regard to pasturing this crop.
It would seem possible to use it for
this purpose by having several fields
and rotating from one to another.
Some very large yields have been
reported from Napier grass. The Flor
ida station reports yields 1915 tons
and 391 tons per acre of feed. New
South Wales reports tests resulting in
yields Of 10 tons and Is tons per acre.
SO far no feeding tests with this grass
has been reported. Chemical analysis
made in New South Wales appear TO
indicate that it has about the same
feeding value as Timothy. The follow
ing table gives the analysis OF the
green plants:

Don't Suffer Relapse
From FIu--Take SuIaC

The dangerous period OF flu is dur
ing convalescence, when the system
in run down and in a weakened con-
dition. Your body is clogged with inn
purities and you ache, feel tired and
have no appetite.
At this period, unless the proper
precautions are taken, there is great
danger of relapse, and a relapse is
frequently more dangerous than the
first attack This is the time that the
body needs all the aid possible and a
good tonic will hasten a return of your
strength and make a relapse improb-
able.
Sulac, the master prescription,
which has been Justly called The
Great Modern Tonic" was designed
to meet just such conditions-to fur
nish the nourishment and the stimu-
liant needed by the body in throwing
off the impurities and i'll effects that
flu leaves.
In Sulac you will find compound

formulary, with just enough sassafras
added to make the taste more agree

i .-IIzER COST
nv MAY BE REDUCED
ESEARCH EXPERT REPORTS
TO DEPARTMENT THAT PRO
CESSES BEING STUDIED.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-In the
present state OF development OF pro
cesses for the hxation OF atmospheric
nitrogen in the United States fixed
nitrogen cannot be produced Tor Ter
tilizer purposes in competition with
Chilean nitrate and with ammonia OBJ
tanned as a by-produCt in the coklng
of coal. except under unusually ia
vorable circumstances. In making that
announcement Acting Director F. q.
Cottrell. OF the fixed nitrogen research
laboratory reported to Secretary Wal
lace of the department of agriculture
that there is every reason to believe
that the cost of flxation can be ma
teriallv reduced through further study
and development. With that object in
view the laboratory has during the
last wear studied various processes.
The direct synthetic ammonia pro-
cess. newest of the three commercially
developed processes, is the one which,
according to DR.. Cottrell, at present
apparently offers the greatest oppor-
tunity for further development, A par
ticularly important advance in this
process is the development OF sat
isfactory ammonia and perfection OF
method for its large scale production.
A critical study OF the cyanamid pro-
cess in its present form, says DIR. Cot
trell, makes it appear that improve
ments leading to drastic reduction IN
cost of operation are rather lmprob-
able. The process requires a relative
" large amount of electric power, and
cheap power, therefore, is necessary to
its profitable operation.
The cyanamid plant at Muscle
Shoals, known as United States nj
trate plant No. 2, is the largest cyana-
mid plant in the world, having a Capac-
itv of 100000 tons of cyanamid, or
10000 tons of ammonium nitrate a
year. This plant was successfully
operated in a test run shortly after
the signing of the armistice The prln-
cipal work of the laboratory carried
out in connection with the peace time
utilization of that plant has been un--
der consideration of what products OF
fertilizer value could be made there,
since it is evident that such a large
quantity of fixed nitrogen can be utll-
lied only for agricultural purposes;
The nitrate plant at Sheffield, Ala,
known as United States nitrate plant
number one. was designed to operate
by the direct synthetic or (Haber)
process with a capacity of approx
mately one-ffth that of the cyanamid
plant. or $4,000 tons OF ammonium nj
trate a year. The plant in its original
form was not d success, due III part
to the insufficient technical intorma-
ton on the various physical chemical
steps which go to make up the pro
cess. The laboratory has undertaken
to supply such technical information.
