FRANCE ASSA|LED
FOR HER POLICIES
NATION DISPOSED TO BELIEVE
AMERICA Is NOT sINERcE
IN PREACHING SACRIFICE
Lloyd George Declared to Have
Changed Platform; English View
Disturbing French. Nations
Are Watching

Paris France has been marking
time the past week.
But meanwhile from Germany come
provocative articles. From England
come contradictory speeches. From
America come disconcerting reports.
While the German press carries on
campaign against French intransig-
ence, the president OF the Reichstag
admits In speech that Wirth ana
Rathenau had obtained 40 per cent
reduction In the PREPARATIONS obllga-
lions imposed at Versailles.
For q long time have been saying
that the reduction amounted to about
30 per cent. This time, however it Is
not a Frenchman taking but Ger
man in high authority.
This reduction simply means that
the French taxpayer must pay what
the Germans avoid. The German
press chooses this moment to accuse
France Of crucifying Germany, a re-
mark which does not need comment.
The approaching elections in Eng
land bring internal politics to the for.
In that country, with unfortunate ef-
fects upon the foreign policy. David
Lloyd George seeks a platform which
will enable him to get majority
similar to the one In 1918. His plat
form then was "hang the kaiser ana
make. Germany pay to the uttermost
farthhg."
Let me merely observe that If Lloyd
George is as faithless to the new
Europe as he was TO the old, it may be
a long time before the recontruction
Is accomplished
Moreover, without naming him,
Lloyd George has made sharp speech
against Premier Poincaire There is
no doubt that M. Poincalre's person
ality arouses In England, especially In
downing street, mixed sediments. In
1920 Lloyd George complained against
Poincaire, then the head of the repair
ations commission, conducting an an
Tailed campaign In reviews ano
newspapers. Again he officially pro
tested, in October, 1921, against Pom
aires publishing of secret peace dos
luments. There is NO confidence or
sympathy between Polncaire ano
Lloyd George. Their controversy as
to the relative merits of the moderii
conference as against the old dipio-
macy Is not particularly interesting
since 1t concerns only the former
But the controversy foreshadows dis.
lluieting disagreement about essen.

| When Premier Polncaire asked me
to take portfolio in his cabinet, /
told him that, while / approved his
purposes, did not think he could
achieve them, because of his contro,
1 vefsial activities for the last two anu
a half years. This alluded not only
to the fact chat he constantly approx.

also to his personal situation relative

SYSTEM OF HOG SANITATION
Methods Developed by Department OF
Agriculture Require Little
Extra Attention.

PREPARED BY the United States department
of Agricultural
Methods developed by the United
States Department of Agriculture LOT
raising hogs free of worms nave
proved SO successful wherever they
have been given "A trial, as III Mclean
county, ILL.,, that the department feels
no hesitancy in recommending them
70 all hog raisers In the great corn
producing areas of the Middle West.
The system recommended by the de
partment is simple. practically the
only requirements being n little extra
care and Ihbor. Just before the fur
rowing season Ii is necessary 10 clean
the narrowing pens thoroughly With
hot water and I've, and before the sows
are put In all dirt Is carefully washed
from their skins. Within two weeks
after narrowing the sows and filters
which have not been allowed out OF
the pens, are moved to n clean pas
ture-one that has not held hogs since
cultivation. The young pigs, In order
to get n good start without worms,
must be kept on clean pasture away
from wormy hog yards without con
tact with other hogs. except the moth
ers, for at least four months, after
which they are past the greatest dan
ger from worms. To be sure, 1t Is
necessary to provide proper feed,
water, and shelter. but that Is what
any pig should have.
Experience has shown that there are
four good reasons why this swine
sanitation plan means money to the
farmer. In the first place, pigs With.
out worms grow to greater size and
make more gain for the same quantity
OF feed than those that must use a
part Of their feed TO grow an army OF
worms. II has been shown also that
when those parasites are kept under
control fewer young pigs are lost from
thumps. Pigs that are not weakened
by the Inroads Of worms are. as q rule,
less susceptible To the various dis
eases that are common tn them. And.
