ITALY AND GREAT BRITAIN

Mussolni and the Italians may con
quer the Philippians but their war has made
more certain a struggle which will be
quite different matter In creating po-
tential threat to British interests, by ignor-
ing British protests, and openly threaten
ing Britain with war the Italians have
made it probable that when the next crisis
between the two countries comes they will
find the British prepared and ready to
demonstrate their supremacy.
a considerable amount of feeling has
been engendered between these two coun~
tries. The British have championed the
Ethiopian cause before the League of Ma
lions. The Italians responded by threaten
ing an invasion of Egypt and later, by
occupying the territory surrounding Lake
Tana which supplies the Nile with its
water, a matter of life and death to this
territory in which Great Britain has
always been Interested. Criticism and
cross words have been uttered by RESPONSE
bic leaders of both nations.
Shortly following the charge that the
Italians were using poison gas against the
Philippians | rime Minister Baldwin indi-
rectly censured the Italians by saying:
Il believe that if such thing we're
done, when that war ended the raging peo-
pies of every country, torn with passion,
suffering and horror would wipe out every
government in Europe and you would have
state of anarchy from end to end OF it as
mans protest against wickedness in high
places"
In Italy, ever since sanctions were i'm
posed under British leadership, the Italian
press has been frequently very bitter in its
controlled expressions of hatred to the
British. Recently Senator Davanzati one of
MuSSOlini's authoritative ypokesmen. irdi-
rectly warned the British against interfer-
ing with the Italian operations by saying
Not only in the Mediterranean but also
IN the Alps and Africa itself, within a few
weeks we shall have a huge military force,
which has annihilated Ethiopian resist
ance. This force could operate in all neces-
SaTy directions"
British prestige has been injured by
Italian defiance. British communication
with India and Australia has been threat
cned by Italian naval and air strength in
the Mediterranean and the establishment
Of huge military base in Northwest
Africa. The British desire peace and will
fight to protect the British Empire.

ALPHA I SWEET CLOVER

There still remains available an
amount of 20 pounds of Alpha I
sweet clover seed for use by var
ious farmers of the county, who are
interested in trying out this variety
as test in this county, according
to Waldo w. Skuse, county extern
sion agent. It is to be regretted
that it was not possible to place
some of this seed at convenient
points in the county where it could
be bought more easily, but this was
not possible. Many farmers have
said they would like to try this out
if there was any seed available.
This is the new sport variety OF
sweet clover which grows like al
falfa, from the crown, and does not
produce the tall stalks of the COM
mon white blossom sweet clover.
Furthermore, it is believed that seed
production of this variety should
prove profitable if the plant proves
as popular as anticipated.
The price is Csc pound so those
desiring to secure seed should remit
at that rate to the Farmers Ex-
change, Kennewick, where Mr.. w.
Skuse has placed the seed, and
enough additional should be added
to cover postage.

HERE'S WHERE YOUR
GLUE COMES FROM

Id. Krum, of the American Pro-
ducts Co., Yakima, was in Kenne-
wick Monday arranging details for
the disposal of livestock which come
to an untimely end on the farm.
The American Products Co. has
been in business in Yakima for ten
years, maintains processing plant
valued at $4,000 and are said to do
yearly gross business of $4,000.
The work is salvaging dead ami
mails and turning them into useful
products.
The fresh meat is made into food
for dogs, foxes and poultry at this
unique establishment. The hides are
utilized, as are the hoofs and
horns, these eventually finding
themselves in a glue factory. The
grease is also removed and the
bones and remaining by-products
are made into fertilizer.
The particular value of the Am
erican Products Co. to this COM
munity is the sanitary feature of
their work. Immediately farm an
nimal dies the owner should call the
local office before nine o'clock in the
morning. A sanitary truck will call
at the ranch the same day and haul
the animal away with dispatch and
efficiency. There is no expense or
effort for the ranchman, other than
the requirement that the dead ami
NAL be where the truck can reach
it. In the event an animal falls into
well or ditch the truck is equip
ped with a hoist which overcomes
difficulties in loading.
AS this service becomes known in
the community it will be better ap-
preciated, and the company ex-
poets to eventually p rofit from its
route into Benton and Franklin
counties. See their ad elsewhere in
this issue.
