language that meant, If it meant
anything, that the members of the
league were banded together to pro
tect themselves from aggression ano
it was pledge that the members OF
the league would obey the advice of
the council as to the means to be
taken to repel such aggression. That
article, taken together with the
whole of the covenant. specifically
set up a government whose
orders, under certain circumstances,
were obeyed by the countries, men,
bers of the league.
The treaties now before the senate
do nothing of that kind. They are
simply agreements among the parties
signatory in the usual form of
treaties and they are to be passed
upon by the constitutional body to
whom has been committed the duty
of examining into such treaties as
the administration may have negoti-
ated with other powers.
There are seven of these treaties
and they include
The covenant of limitation to naval
ornaments between our republic, the
British Empire, France Italy and
Japan.
The treaty between the same
powers in relation to the use of SUBJ
marines and noxious gases in warfare.
The treaty between the United
States, the British Empire, France
and Japan relating to their insular
possessions and their insular domi-
Mons in the Pacific.
A declaration accompanying the
four-power treaty reserving Ameri-
can rights in inundated territory.
An agreement supplementary to
the four-power treaty defining the
application of the term 'insular
possession and insular dominions," as
relating to Japan.
A treaty between the nine powers
in the conference relating to prin-
ciples and policies to be followed in
matters concerning China.
A treaty between the nine powers
relating to Chinese customs tariff.
1t will be noted that these are not
in any sense offensive or defensive
treaties. They do not bind this
country or any other to military
action. They do not appropriate
territory, and they do not contain
the seeds of a future war.
They do provide for a ten-year
recess in the contraction of naval
equipment on the part of the five
great powers, and the United States
is already putting that program into
effect b suspending all construction
on naval vessels not yet completed.
They provide that the same powers
will not use in war the noxious and
murderous gases developed in the
last war. They settle the question of
the islands of the Pacific, with GER
tain reservations by the United
States. They settle the most of the
vexatious Chinese problems.
All these are definite steps toward
peace and there can be no bareback
into war on account of any one of
these treaties.
Thus, we have escaped, on the one
hand. the necessity of surrendering
to higher power the sovereignty of
this country, and on the other have
immeasurably gained in securing a
perfect understanding on the most
important questions relating to war,
as between the five great powers
taking part in the treaties, as we'll
as the sympathy Of all the nations
represented at the arms conference.

We are having little jitney-street

the street cars are municipality run
the city government decided that
tits couldn't run on the streets with
the street car tracks. The Jitney
drivers wanted to<have one of their
number arrested and try that as
test case, but the city manager mott
fed them that every car driver who
started out would be arrested. Sc
they decided not to run the jits, at
least for the present, not only or
Flagler and 1st Ave. but on all the
lit routes. And that is how the
matter stands at this writing. There
will probably be a test case tried
before long.

BIG CLOUDBURST DOES
DAMAGE AT GAINESVILLE

GAINESVILLE, Wis.-Following the
coming of storm cloud which chang
ed day into night, GAINESVILLE was
visited Thursday afternoon by the
worst rain storm in its history, which
is estimated to have done several
thousand dollars damage to city prop
erty and to crops in the surrounding
district.
In two hours more than three and
five-eighths inches Of rain fell, which
flooded the streets and carried in its
mad rush to Rock River tons OF
gravel tore great holes in paved
streets and destroyed curbings.
Business was at standstill for an
hour during the most severe part OF
the cloudburst. Street car, railroad
and interurban service was interrupt
ed. The water deposited big mounds
of sand and gravel on the tracks and
caused two washouts on the North
western line.
On the main street near Rock river,
which is at the foot of long hill, the
water was more than foot deep from
curb to curb, ana holes were cut in
the floor of a restaurant which was
inundated. The water rushed over
the curb and into the fronts OF stores
and several hundred dollars damage
was done to stock.

SEVEN TONS IN s HOURS
NEW BUTTER RECORD

BARRON, Wis.-The Barron CO.
operative creamery, the largest of its
kind in the world, broke i+s own
record for butter making last week in
producing more than seven tons of
butter in eight hours. Two hundred
and thirty-two tubs of butter were
made, each weighing ga pounds.
The highest previous record was
the output of one day last June of 210
tubs. AS this is early in the season,
with pastures far from their best, it
is expected this record will be ex-
ceeded later in the season.
During the churning of the record
output two of the large churns were
filled five times and one four times.
Twelve watts of cream were used.
The output was all the more remark
able in that the output for the other
five days of the week was up to the
average.
An addition is being built to the
creamery in which another churn will
be installed and more vat space pro-

LOCALS BEAT
MADISON IN
Alto 0 GAME
DODGE PITCHES NO HIT NO RUN
GAME.

Manager Jimmy Dodge was the big
noise at Madison Sunday when he
shut out the Capital City crew with
out hit. Jimmy was in rare form
and had the Madison hitters eating
out of his hand all the way. Nine
strike out went into the book to pad
the 1922 record and the three passes
issued were the result of control
rather than lack CT it. Dodge worked
the corners and offered nothing fat
no matter what the count was.
Madison had man on in the fourth,
sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth. In
the fourth double play, Dodge to
Van Roo to Schultz cleared the bases
and in the sixth and seventh double
killings via the Driggett to Van Roo
to Schultz route snuffed Madison's
hopes. A fourth double play would
have gone through in the eighth if
Driggett had covered second trifie
faster. In the ninth Dodge passed
Bowes but he stood on first while the
next three skied out.
Wright worked nice game. The
locals went after him in the first
three innings, but after that it was
one, two three.
Bell waited the string out in the
first and then cracked out single.
Van Roo tried to sacrifice and then
switched to a hit and run with a
dandy double. Driggett drove one
down the first base line that looked
good for two bases and two runs but
Kleinheinz made a wonderful bare
hand stop for the fielding feature OF
the day. Schultz drove in two runs
with triple but died there.
Albright opened the second with
single Dodge showed him ahead with
a sacrifice Bell walked and Van Roo
famed but Drlggett poled a double,
Albright scoring.
Kappel, first up in the third, drove
one to the railroad track. One OF
Madisons track fans earned his way
by finding the ball for the outfielders
and Bud was held at third. We sug-
gest a season pass as reward for
services rendered in time of need.
Kappel came home on HiXson's long
sacrifice fly to center and the scoring
was over Albright got his second
single later in the same inning and
Lancaster was through hitting for the
day.

Most herds of the association will
go on grass in good condition of flesh,
which will enable them to keep up a
steadier flow of milk through the
summer. Furthermore a little grain
fed while on pasture will bring re-
turns when the grass shows signs of
losing it's freshness or becoming
short. Spring calves will do better
when kept in shady place, and fed
dry feeds with skim milk, grass not
being we'll suited to the stomach of
the young calf. They should also
