AS 1t appears that the supply Of
horsepower on farms is beginning to
run low and will be lower yet In an
other year or two, W. n. Peters, head
of the Minnesota university's division
. OF animal industry, contends it will.
surely pay to give a little extra atten-
Stion to both mares and foals at foaling
time. He says:
Dung colts are subject to three
common troubles that cause heavy
death rate, namely, navel i'll, scours..
and constipation. To guard against
navel Ill every sanitary precaution pos
sible should be taken, such as having
the mare foal In a clean thoroughly
disinfected box stall, carefully disin.
fectfng the navel cord Of the colt
shortly after It is born, and washing
the udder OF the mare with a weak
poisonous disinfectant solution.
On farms where navel i'll has occurred,
1t will pay to treat or have a yeterin-
arlan treat the colts with Preventive
serum.

TRANCE is to be left to act as she
= sees fit when Germany defaults on
the reparations payments in January,
but she will not have the active sup
port Of Great Britain. That appears to
b. the sole outcome Of the meeting Of
the allied premiers In London from
which SO much was expected. First,
they fatty rejected the tentative plan
offered by Chancellor Cuno, which was
no surprise to Berlin. Then the vari-
GUS premiers submitted their proposals,
and after, discussion they merely ad-
journed until January 2, when they
meet in Paris. Poincare's plan, includ.
Ing the occupation Of the Ruhr and
Essen, has been told before. Nlusso.
lini for Italy offereda a program for the
cancellation of interallied debts in re-
turn for reduction Of German repara.
tons, with Great Britain not making
conditions difficult by asking that
America cancel the debt owed it. He
said II such plan could be adopted,
Italy would help Germany In the task
Of reconstruction; IL not, then Italy
would back France in any action she
might decide upon.
Bonar Law clung to his policy Of
tranquility" and made 1t clear that
the British government would be quite
willing to reconsider the question Of
q cancellation Of the French. debt, pro.
vlded such a step was made possible
by reparations settlement satisfac-
tory to Great Britain. Later he virtual
~ told Poincare that IL the French In
sisted on selling physical pledges for
German good faith, Great Britain,
while 1t could not approve actively,
would not oppose. The British re-
fused to be associated In any effort to
4ndnce the United States to cancel its
debt, and Mussolini thought America
should be left out Of the discussion of
the problem.

hat German reparations and the allied

and that the reparations should be adj
justed on basis of Germany's capa

tive Burton of Ohio, a member Of the

THE UNKNOWN FACTOR

lie dormant with the apathetic repose Of
China-these are puzzles and perplexties and
engmas of the future about which delegates
to the Washington conference hardly dare to
speculate lest they be overwhelmed by a
storm of ghosts and specters.
For the time being Russia as nation may
be regarded as nonexistent She resembles
giant that has been temporarily knocked
out and put to sleep like the trustful Ssera
in the tent of the treacherous Jae Yet no
scheme for world reconstruction can afford
to disregard the time when Russia wakes
again and claims her rightful place in the
family of newly-welded nations. For, if no
provision has been made for this colossus of
two continents, the whole work of present
world craftsmanship may have to be done all
over again.
While we talk of disarmament we cannot
help remembering that just now Russia has
the largest army existent and that just now
Russia's hand is against the hand of every
other nation We cannot help but remem-
Der that in 1913 the same Russia, today I'M
able to feed its own people, produced ten mil
lion tons of food for export and held con-
trolling interest in the worlds platinum and
oil markets. We cannot help but remember
that oppressed Russia under the Gar had
great deal to say as to the prices of goods and
the extent of employment not only in Russia
itself, but in every other country, including
the United States.
Two dictatorial usurpers have been able to
wipe out all the useful services that Russia
performed for the world under the autoc
racy of the Gar. But while we remember
this, it is not altogether out of place to sur
mise what a restored Russia, guided by in
telligent, democratic leaders, may achieve in
the fields of trade and commerce when bust
ness brains are once again able to develop
her matchless and almost ineXhaustible nat
ural resources.
Besides, we must remember that commerce
is older than war and that when war has
been abolished the fight for commerce will
be even more intense than it is at present.
And in these new commercial battles resur-
rected Russia is likely to be as keen COM
petitor for world leadership as ever was Ger
many Japan, Great Britain or the United
States.
The unknown factor in world affairs is not
Russia as she really doesn't exist while eX-
tinguished in the personalities of Lenine and
Trotzky, but the Russia that is still living
and breathing hard in the stranglehold of her
present tyrants, the Russia that some day
will revive and throw her mighty resources
into the struggle for trade supremacy. That
is the unknown factor to which world states
men must assign a definite value before they
can hope to solve successfully their present
complex problem in international quadratic
equations.
