Hard Economic Facts To Be
Considered With Reparations
British Observer Furnishes Figures Which Taken Into
Account in Connection With What Can Be
! f<t Exacted From Germany

the flood of German exports would
have to be.
"In 1912 German exports were 440,-
000,000 pounds In 1913 they rose to
496,000,000 sterling. Neglecting the
great change in values we have to add
for indemnity payments, for losses of
shipping, and for loss of domestic
materials. The minimum indemnity
payments ii. e. eXqorts) are 10000
&c pounds a year and the maximum
4O0,000,000 pounds a year. So that
Germany's exports, unless her imports
(and with them her exports) fail
would have to be increased to, taking
the minimum indemnity, 10000 600
pounds. This is arrived at by taking
the pre-war German export figure of
/ 496,000,000 and adding an increase in
exports of 120, 100000 to atone for loss
/ of shipping and materials under the
treaty and of 150,000,000 more exports
to pay the minimum indemnity.
"This sum, which neglects the rise
in values would have to be increased
! 100000 pounds to meet the maxi
mum Indemnity.
How are these figures to be met
HliGu tILG Dulh VI tI.S bGIlIdil DCOplc
are so poor?
THE consumption of the average
German can be reduced by taxation to
increase exports but even in 1913 the
German average income per head of
population was less than twelve shil-
lings week and the corresponding
figure today, reckoning in gold and not
paper marks, is very much less.
and how fortunate it is for the
world at large that Germany cannot
pour out German goods at 800 to 1000
million pounds sterling q year. If she
did, the greater industrial countries
would encounter such degree of un-
employment that millions of their
people would be plunged into misery.
Already British miners and shipwork-
ers are heavily unemployed because of
the German indemnity payments in
coal and ships.
at is matter of world interest to
reduce the indemnity to figures: first,
which Germany can pay and secondly,
which would mean the. export by Ger
manv Of such moderate stream of
goods as the; worlds markets could
absorb without dislocation."

LONDON, Feb. 1.-"Germany has
already paid the Allies much-over
three times as much as France paid
her fifty years ago-and she can pay
much more, but she cannot pay the
enormous sums demanded of her by
the Allies" declared Sir Leo Chiozza
Money, late Parliamentary Secretary
to the British Ministry of Shipping, in
an interview to the United Press.
/ For the sake of Europe and world
at large, and in the common interests
of humanity, Sir Leo urged common
sense revision of. German Reparations
I'm connection with the whole question
of international indebtedness.
/ Sir Leo outlined the following rea-
sons to demonstrate Germany's in
ability to pay the staggering bill as
iessed by the Allies.
Before the war;" he explained
Germany had considerable excess OF
imports, for her exports of goods were
not big enough to pay for her import
needs.
"That excess was paid for by ship.

"Then, remenlbsTy$she had the mag
nificent mineral resources of Alsace

There is only one way by which
Germany can pay an indemnity ant
that is by exporting She has to turl
pre-war excess Of imports into gi
gantic excess of exports.
"But Germany is now an impover

minus the Saare coal, minus ships
minus most of her foreign invest

DOG TANGLED IN NETCH
GOES MAD AND Is SHOT
South Carolina Farmer Had 10 [ Sc
Tractor to Turn nder Hairy
Netch, Growth Was So Thick

One Of the most remarkable sto-
rieS. a bit wierd but hardly question
able none the less. in which field
Of hairy yetch became almost a men-
ace to his farm is chronicled by Mr..
Ben j. Smith, prominent Anderson
county farmer of the Concord see
ton.
Last fall, according to the story,
Mr.. Smith planted field of vetch
and rye on good land near his barn.
The vetch was inoculated and put in
good condition. 1t grew rapidly and
made a splendid crop of both vetch
and rye. Just before the harvest time
the wind blew the heavy growth to
ground SO it was necessary to turn
under the whole for improving the
soil. Mr. Smith attempted to turn it
under with turnplows and good mules
but could not manage it so he utiliZ-
ed tractor 1t was thoroughly disc
el and turned under with large disc
plow
The field is described as one Of the
biggest "meSseS' he has ever seen by
County Agent Byers.
One Of these aiding Mr. Smith in
turn ng under the ve,ch said, That
was some vetch. Some Of Mr.. Smith S
guineas got out in the field and got
tangled in the yetch and could not get
out They starved 10 death in the
field
When the question as to the cor
rectness Of the story came up, Mr..
Smith said it was worse than that.
MY Quineas." he said, starved to
death in the field when they got out
in the vetch, it was so thick and high,
and my dog got out in il also. was
unable to get out, went mad and had
to be shot"
While these incident are unusual
said Mr.. Byers, vetch does make a
wonderful crop. and when turned un-
der is equal to any crop as boil
builder. This piece of land will show
results Of the crop turned under by
Mr.. Smith for many years.

al the time of harvesting. ~ Look
al each ear as huSked and put those
apparently not affected 10 them
selves, dividing the wagon body for
this purpose. (S) Ears which are
visibly infected should be given a
sudden knock or jar to get rid of as
many weevils as possible and then
put them in their separate place.
(l) The weevil infected ears may be
stored in any convenient place and
should be fed first. (5) The ears
which are apparently free of weevil
should be placed in tight bins, boxes,
barrels, etc, where they can be fumi-
gated. (6l Fumigate soon after
storage or whenever weevils become
troublesome.
For fumigating the material known
as carbon bisulphide tor di-sulphlde }
is the standard. II can be seeu ed
from or through druggists or some
agricultural dealers. If farmers were
more regular in their use of this ma
terial il would be handled more regu-
larly and by more dealers; as it IS,
many do not carry il in stock. The
prices for this material vary from 80
to 40 cents for single one-pound cans
to 10 cents per pound, or even less,
when purchased in wholesale quantl-
ties. The material is a bad-smelling
clear liquid which evaporates rapid
liz, and has the same iadamab.e quail
ities as gasoline; hence use preeau-
ton against fire or explosion.
From 1 to pounds Is used for each
1000 cubic feet in the box, bin or
room in which the corn is stored, ev-
en- though the grain occupies only
part of the space. 1t may be placed
in one or more shallow pans on top of
the corn, or it may even be splsshed
directly over the pile. Ii should be
distributed, not all placed or poured
IN one spot. One pan may do for a
box. but several would be needed for
a room. After placing or pouring or
splashing the material, close the box,
bin or room tightly and keep closed
"a hours. If the eontainer is not tight
use a larger quantity to amend the
leakage; the amount suggested is bas-
ed on a tight container. This fumi-
cation kills weevils but not the eggs,
so another treatment NAV be advisa-
bic after one to three weeks. 1t is
best to start treatment in the morn
ing of a moderately warm day, as
slight heat makes the fumes more ac-
tive.

MANY farmers in this section have
suffered much loss during the past
few days from weevil attacks on their
grain. especially corn and peas, Mr..
I. J. ". Broom, the county agent, re-
ported Saturday. Nc; only have the
weevils gotten in old corn, but new
corn has been attacked before II was
harvested.
Franklin Sherman, state etomoio-
cist. has issued the following oulle-
lin on the subject;
During the last two years there
has been a notable increase in the
complaints Of weevi's in grams, and
most Of these complaints refer to
damage by the black weevil or rice
wee-ll in com in the eastern half OF
ths ssate.
Although this weevil and others
have long been present, many farm
erS appear to be noticing L for the
first time. often reporting il as new
pest to them. This black weeyil has
somewhat the appearance Of very
small boil weevil but IS an entirely
different insect. While II is pri-
marily a pest of dry corn IN storage,
il does attack corn in the field be-
fore harvesting or tEen when the
grains are in the dough stage.
As long as we allow the corn to
stand in the field until winter and
then harvest and store it in the shuck
in barns and bins which are not tight
and cannot be made tight. we stand
10 lose severely from weevil. But by
prompt harvesting, husk.ng at har-
vest and storing in tight bins, we
have a chance to greatly reduce the
loss. Our careful farmers can well
afford to consider the advisabilitty of
building tight storage houses which
can be properly fumigated, and at
the same time make them as nearly
mouse proof as possible.
The most practicable steps BY
which our farmers can reduce this
weevil injury are; CD Harvest the
corn as early as practicable and husk
