The Paris Conference
CFrom the New York Tribuns)

The Parts conference on repara-
tions IS the last OF a long series. To
name the others Is 20 call a long
roll-Boulogne Hythe, San Reno,
Spa. Cannes, Genoa, London and
Paris-with sundry repetitions at
the last two places. Looking back.
progress has seemed slow. The
disagreement: between France and
Great Britain often appeared in
durable. Yet progress has been
made. As Talleyrand said: Time
has curative secrets which the genius
OF man cannot discover"
Paris dispatches still emphasize
the outstanding differences among
the Allies. There are differences,
but no one can justly say that they
are as serious as they have been at
any OF the preceding conferences.
The reaction at Paris to the world
wide discussion which followed the
abrupt djournment at London last
month may not yet have borne full
fruit. but there are signs OF the out
cropping Of a new spirit which en-
phasizes the will TO agree. France
has presented a moderate program
which has in the main the support of
Italy and Belgium. Great Britain
has a plan which may turn out TO be
less irreeoncilable IN matter and
manner than any which Lloyd
George ever put forward.
Bonar Law and Poincare are no
longer at odds as to the amount
which Germany ought 10 pay d.
rectly as repartions. They Ak the
amount at about $4,000. 1000
gold marks. This covers the a and
B bonds which Germany was re-
CURED TO issue. What IS to be-

Polncare suggests that they be used
to discharge the inter-Allled war

ing them 10 Great Britain. France

Great Britain asks for longer
moratorium and France for a
shorter one. France also demands
economic guarantees Of German
good faith and Is prepared to apply
economic pressure by tax collec-

have the will to collect an lndem-

Versailles Treaty the fight for
unity IS hall won. The means are

to enforce the full treaty penalties
against the Germans.
The British and French programs
remain to be studied and harmo-

healer. This IS 1923. and the world
is beginning TO look eagerly for the
clinohing Of a settlement which has
been overdue since 1921.

CERTIFIED SEED POTATOES
GIVE INCREASED YIELD

While there has been an increasing
tendency on the part of pototo pro-
ducers to use certified seed during the
last few years, the favorable results
that have been obtained from the use
of such seed should encourage a much
more general use of certified seed,
says the United States Department Of
Agriculture. A number of states are
now producing certified seed and have
records showing the comparative yield
from certified fields with the average
yield of the state.
In New York state yields for ordi
nary fields averaged 1903 bushels an
acre. In Minnesota the yield in favor
of the certified seed over that of the
ordinary fields was 90 bushels an acre,
and in Pennsylvania certified fields
yielded 968 bushels while the ordinary
fields produced only 100 bushels ON
acre. Reports from other states show
similar increase in yield from the GER
titled fields In comparison to the aver
age of the state.
Certified seed sent from Michigan to
several corn-belt states for expert
mental and Unconstitutional tests in
1921 showed decided improvement in
yild ovr tn local seed. In Iowa the
increase in yield secured from this
Michigan certified seed was 61.2 BUSH
els, in Indiana 81 fields showed an in
crease of 60 bushels, in Illinois 81
fields yielded A bushels increase,
while in Ohio, where the great part
Of the acreage of the state is planted
with certified Seed the increase due
to the Michigan seed was only 20
bushels. In two tests conducted in
Delaware the Michigan certified seed
averaged 68h bushels more an acre
than homegrown seed.
Last season was good one for both
producers and buyers of certified seed.
The large production of certified seed
has brought the price SO low that al
though reports show that premium
of so to 100 per cent is being paid for
certified stock, the grower Is at least
getting little profit out of his work,
while the buyer Is able to buy this
seed at a req sOnahle cost

This new bob has the hair chopped
off just below the upper tip Of the
ear and has it brought forward cow
lick fashion we'll over the cheeks. The
bang is cut half way down the fore
head.
While bobbed heads have been Of
ficially buried by the dictators of
fashion in Paris, American women are
slow to abandon this popular mode.
Still. the hair dressers do report that
only fifty per cent as many women
are having their hair bobbed as were
accounted for last year.
That bangs will be quite the rage is
quite certain. Many Of the social
leaders in Paris are wearing them,
and in England Lady Dowes-Lyon, the
finance of the Duke of York, has in
PRODUCED the fashion. Therefore, it
will be bang summer over there.
Here the bang is being ushered in
under the title Of "Trilby Bang!"
This is quite different from the Tu-
tankhamen ornament. 1t comes right
down to. the eyebrows.
For the woman who has low fore
head the bang Is very becoming, as il
tends to lengthen the face; on the
other hand, the woman who has c
high forehead and long thin face
