Washington. d. C., March 10
One of the biggest law suits in his
tory will start in April when the
work of adjudicating American war
claims against Germany amounting 10
nearly a billion dollars, is taken up
nv the mixed claims commission.
More than 10000 individual cases
are involved, including those growing
out of the sinking of the Lusltanla
bv a German submarine.

Recovery a Question.
Il is difficult to estimate how
much Of the SI.000,000,000 demanded
by American claimants ever will be
recovered. It probably will be some
thing less than S100000,000 as claims
growing out of previous wars have
been settled on a basis of about )
per cent. If this is followed with
these claims. the commercial claims
now amounting TO sS10,000,OO0 will
be cut down to about S64, 100000
while the personal damage claims,
growing out of the ruthless war at
sea, will be scaled TO about S3,SOO,-
900. ,
Congress had these claims in mind
when it passed the Winslow bill pro-
viding for the return of amounts UP
10 $4,000 in trusts of German owner
shin now held by the alien property
custodian. This bill left with the
alien property custodian property
valued at more than $215,000,OOO,
in addition 10 the German patents
now in litigation.
It is doubtful if this money will
be used to liQuidate the claims ap-
proved but the present plan is Ia
hold it until the German government
takes the steps necessary 70 satisfy
approved claims.

Weekly service Hints Furnished BY
State College Specialists
By Mary Ann Gray

10y MARY Ann ITay
The Cold Box is the most economi-
cal and convenient method for keep
ing %perishable foods in winter. Build
this refrigerator on the outside of a
kitchen window, preferably on the
north because that is coolest. Fasten
the box to the window casing by
screws and nails SO it can be removed
in summer. A sloping roof protects
the container from rain, and screened
holes at each end let air circulate
through the box. Raising the window
gives access to the cold box and the
upper half of the window still gives
light.

CERTIFIED SEED POTATOES

Seven requests for certified Early
Ohio seed potatoes have been received
at the County Agents office. Should
the demand for this kind of seed po-
tatoes be strong enough, an effort to
bring in a car load OF Hamlin County's
product will be made. The price will
be announced in next weeks issue
If received by that time.
A large number of the potatoes
available for seed within the county
are diseased and of inferior quality

potatoes hat are not desirable from
a marketing standpoint. Effective
marketing should begin first with a
uniform product. Uniformity cannot
be expected from seed that is not up
to standard. 1t is expected that five
or ten farmers will cooperate during
the season in the production of home
grown certified seed. Twenty-Five
acres must be secured before certifica-
ton will be attempted.

ARTIFICIAL MARBLE

The London Chemical society
nounces the discovery of way to
make artificial marble. Powdered
calcium chloride and sodium car
Donate are mixed together in equal
proportions in water, until they
make stiff paste. The mass is then
put into a mold, and pressed with a
force of $50 pounds to the square
inch, and at temperature of almost
a red heat until the mixture is dry
and hard. A number of obscure
chemical changes take place, which
makes the mass hard as stone, and
capable of taking high polish.
Slabs of this stone are reported to
have been turned out after eight
hours of heating.

Towering 20 feet, "wall' of

motion by submarine disturbance,
nearly proved disastrous to the
Pacific liner Brush, so miles off
the coast of Mexico recently. The
captain of the ship described the APP
preach of the strange freak of
nature as an unbroken black line
near the horizon when first observed
by the lookout. When its nature was
discerned, the ship was made ready
for the .onrush of water. When the
wall hit the Brush, the captain
declared it was as if huge hand
had clasped the vessel and raised it
into the air. There was not breath
of wind, but for SIX hours after the
occurrence, the log of the ship
shows, the Brush labored in swells
equal to those off Cape Horn and
was driven miles off its course

Thirty Baby Reptiles Come to Frat
tier" but There Is Little Hope
They Will Live.

A most unpleasant nursery has
been started at the London Zoolog-
zeal gardens, where rattlesnake
has produced family of thirty
babies, an exchange says.
There is nothing of cuddlesome,
infant softness about these tenfold
triplets. The tiny monsters wriggle
round their motionless mother, look
ing keen, efficient and venomous in
their snuff and butter-colored mark
ings.
All are fully equipped to kill al
ready. Is not there an old saying
to the effect that it is sharper than

children has set of poison fangs
of which any mother might be
proud.

Independent infants objected to
their birthday suits and started to
shed their skins. This Isbstill going

It is very doubtful if the babies
can be reared. They may live for
a month without food. so there viii
be time to tempt them with young

not much hope that they win live to

LEGENDS OF THE HAWTHORN

Henry VIII (14s5-15O9) of Eng
land is said to have chosen hawthorn
for his device, because the crown of
Richard III was found in haw-
thorn bush on the field of Bosworth
after the battle. According to an
old English tradition, Christ's
crown of thorns was made of haw-
thorn, which, for this reason is
called by the French Z epine noble.
In south Germany, blackthorn was
believed to have been the wood used,
while other traditions pointed to
some kind Of Northumberland

GRAVEL ROADS ARE HARD ON
AUTO TIRES.

eff we had concrete surfaces t
drive upon we could pay tire tax o
81 per cent and still spend no NOR
money for tires than is required TO
our present road surfaces say
Highway Engineer II. E. Phelps O.
the State College of Washington En-
cheering College, discussing the eff
feet road surfaces, poor or good have
on the cost of running autos and haul
| ing loads.
Within the last year there has
been an organized effort made to re-
duce taxes, which are generally, agreed
to be to high all over the country,
he continues. I'm many places this
this effort to reduce taxes has taken
the form of an assault upon the taxes
being levied for good roads.
He points out how experiments have
proven how a gallon of gasoline is
needed to haul one ton ID miles on
earth roads, 81 miles on gravel and
81 ON concrete.
cit is interesting to translate these
figures into the cost of gasoline per
mile of travel for the average auto
mobile, - he continues. "Taking the
weight of an automobile as IA tons,
with gasoline costing 20 cents gallon,
each mile of travel would cost cents
for gas on earth roads, cent and
third on gravel, and only pinety-one
hundredths of one cent ON concrete.
In other words, when car reaches
the end of the concrete and starts
down gravel surface, the extra gas.
oline required costs as much as a tax
of 6 2-3 cents per gallon. And when it
reaches the end of the gravel and
starts down the average poor earth
road, and added cost of 10c per gal
lon is the traveller 3 tax caused by
the poor road.
Thus these figures prove that our
poor roads place gasoline tax upon
Us three to eight times as great as the
AK the Legislature placed on gasoline
Tor good roads. And this poor road tax
has the added disadvantage that we
'eceive no returns from its expendi-
ure.
This gasoline tax of cents to 10
ents gallon placed upon us by poor
Dads is not the only tax we pay to
'oor roads. Definite figures are lack
ng but experience on Palouse gravel
indicates that such roads are extreme
? hard on tires. They also place upon
S taxes of unknown magnitude be-
ause of the added repairs required,
nd the shorter life of automobiles
sed upon poor roads as compared.
18th those run on good road surfaces.
Estimates made by automobile
callers show these taxes to be just
) high as the poor road gasoline tax
nd the poor road tire tax. But ne
Letting them entirely, we still have
lch large taxes to pay to poor roads
lat we should have no hesitation in
our good roads taxes for
lie purpose of abolishing our much |
rger poor roads taxes as rapidly as
,ssible. +"
