it may also reflect a feeling in finan-
cial circles that Germany's position
has been improved by her refusal to
attempt anything further along the
line of reparations.
If there is any difference as com
pared with a week ago it is that the
probabilities seem greater for the ulti-
mate adoption of the plan favored by
the American State Department and
supported by the two wings of the Lib
eral party in Overwhelmingly the APP
pOintment of an outside commission
to determine exactly what Germany
can afford to pay. This, after all, has
always appeared the only logical way
out of the dilemma.

to Get Ideas for New Wash

The Commissioners today author
ICED committee Of three District Of
ficials to visit a number Of states In
quest of ideas to be used in planning
Washington's feeble minded colony.
The committee will consist of Capt.
John Z. Wood, assistant Engineer
Commissioner; Albert L. Harris. mu-
nicipal architect, and George s. VIII
son, secretary to the board of chart
ties.
They will go to New York state,
New Jersey and Massachusetts,, where
they will inspect institutions. The
trip was decided upon in order that
the District might have the advan-
tage of the experiences of other mu-
inequalities in providing for feeble
minded wards.
The city heads a few days ago pur-
chased a tract of S27 acres on the
Little Patuxent river, in Anne Arun-
del county. Md, as the site for the
eeble minded home.
AS soon as the committee returns
from its tour Mr. Harris will begin
preparation of plans for the first
buildings.
1t Is practically certain that the in
stitution will be of the cottage type
in preference to one large building.

USE WHEAT D0CKAGE
AS FEED FOR STOCK
Foreign Material Was Removed
at Threshing Time.
Makes Excellent Substitute fer High.
Priced Oats and Other Gralns-
Clean Wheat Brings Higher
Price on Market.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agricultural
Enough coarse foreign material, or
dockage, to feed ten cows and 80
horses for seven months was removed
from the wheat grown on a North
Dakota farm In 1921, according to in
formation received by the United
States Department Of Agriculture
The foreign material was removed
from the wheat at the time Of thresh-
ing with an experimental grain re-
cleaner tested by r. II. Black, in
charge Of grain-cleaning investigations
for the department The foreign ma
terial was finely ground before feed
ing so as to kill the germs Of the
weed seeds.
The owner of the farm had previ-
ously sold his wheat ''in the dirt" at
his local elevator and had received
nothing for the foreign material in
the grain. Moreover he had been
compelled to use high-priced oats and
other grains for feed for his live
stock. BY cleaning his grain and
grinding the dockage in 1921, he OBJ
tanned fairly good feed at practically
no cost.
Another inducement to clean grain
on the farm is that clean grain will
usually bring a higher price In the
market than grain which contains
dockage.' Mr.. Black says.

and methods of cleaning grain on the
farm are described in Farmers Bulle=

The Tammany society of New York
was incorporated soon after the Revo-
lutionary war. Its meetings took place
In Tammany hall, so often distin-
guished IN the political history of the
country. Many of the soldiers and
sages of the republic became members
OF the society, for it was based upon
the broadcast republican principles. II
was in favor of government by the
people. of freedom of speech and re
hgion and of the liberty of the press.
Originally established for benevolent
purposes. it became political as soon
as an aristocratic element was sus
pected to be growing strong, favorable
to standing army and extensive navy
In time of peace, to heavy taxes and
to alien and sedition laws, such as
were In vogue in the time of the
elder Adams. when a large party de.
sired to empower the president so that
he could expel suspected foreigners
from the soil of the United States,
