defenders had to try to be strong
everywhere and they could not do it.
go The Germans possessed great
superiority in numbers, provided
they could make those numbers
available at the decisive point
The hope of the defenders was, of
course, to wipe out the German de-
tachments before they could be too
heavily reinforced. Once the Ger
mans began to make really for
midable Judgements Gen. B. C..
Freyberg, commander of British
forces in Crete, was in much the
same position as Lee in 1896:
Such local success as he might
achieve could be bought only with
the blood of men he could not re-
place.
Crete is not yet lost, of course; at
the worst, guerilla operations in its
formidable mountains may con-
tinue for long time, especially as
the guerillas can be supplied with
arms and munitions by air from
Egypt. But the German progress
seems to have reached a stage
where it may be we'll to inquire what
may be the effect on the British
strategy in the Mediterranean of
the loss Of the island, or at any
rate of British inability to use it as
a base.
More Suited for Aircraft.
AS a base of German operations
it may not make a very great diff
ference. 1t is no more suited for
the support of large numbers of
German aircraft than of British,
although as an advance base, with
support close behind of mainland
bases, it may be more formidable
than the British were able to make
it. Axis aircraft and perhaps sub
marines and speed boats can make
British naval movements more
hazardous in the Eastern Mediter-
ranean than they have been before,
and long-range bombing attacks
against Alexandria and the Suez
Canal can be somewhat increased in
scale, although the distance factor
is no better than it was from Rhodes
But Britain has lost a base which
was OF very great Importance from
the British viewpoint; a base which
protected their communications
with Malta and enabled them to
strike with real effect against the
communications of the Axis army in
North Africa. 1t is probably in the
restriction of British operations,
the reduction of British radius of
action, that the Germans will get
their chief value out of the capture
of Crete.
Indeed, it is clear that already
they have begun to exploit their adj
vantages along this line. Strong re-
Inducements of men and supplies
undoubtedly have reached Libya, a
fact of which the British air and
submarine attacks on conveys in the
Central Mediterranean and the air
attacks on shipping in the harbor
of Sfax are the best evidences. The
resumption of offensive operations
on the Egyptian-Libyan frontier by
the Axis forces is further evidence
that this is so. There is a clear line
of reasoning which might even lead
one to the conclusion that the
whole German effort in Iraq, Syria
and Crete has been directed with a
single eye to the situation in North
Africa.

Senator said he presumed the

WheeIer's Reply to Pepper.
In rejecting Senator Peppers in
vitation for joint debate in Helena,
Senator Wheeler said he thought
the President has been right many
times" and added that he was par
ticularly right" when he promised
the American people again and
again that he would not send Ameri-
can sailors, soldiers or pilots to fight
in foreign wars" Senator Wheeler
added:
IF he keeps the promises made
during the campaign and continues
to refuse to follow you into war in
Europe, Asia and Africa, he will be
everlastingly right"
Senator Wheeler advised Senator
Pepper that the people of Mon
tana would show him every cour-
tesy" in his Helena address next
Wednesday, even though they are
opposed to getting this Nation into
war"
They will permit you to speak in
any hall in the CITY," Senator
Wheeler added. They believe in

right to trial by jury of persons
charged with crime"

UNLAWFUL TO IGNORE WHITE
TRAFFIC LINES

Owing to the fact that in recent
weeks members of Governor o'Con-
or's Maryland Traffic Safety Commit
tee have come in contact with many
persons who do not seem to realize
the significance of the yellow and
white lines on highway, Committee
feels that full explanation of the
meaning and Importance of these
markers to warn motorists that sight
distances are insufficient to permit
safe passing, and that it is necessary
for cars to stay in the line of traffic,
even though there is not a car APP
preaching at the moment.
If there is white line on one side
Of the yellow line that marks the
center of the highway, the Commit
tee points out, it indicates that under
no condition is it safe for motorist
on the side of the white line to pass
over the marker. Where white line
is painted on either side of the yell
low marker, it is unlawful for the
motorist on either side to attempt
to cross the line, or pass another
automobile ahead, until the white
line or danger zone is passed.
E. r. McShane, Executive Secre-
tary of the Maryland Traffic Safety
Committee, in issuing thewarning,
said 1.-The Committee is making this
explanation in order that many mo-
florists who have not heretofore rec
ognized the value and importance of
these markers, may be informed, and
thus lend their support to the efforts
of the Safety Committee to improve
conditions, and possibly save them
selves from arrest and fine"

While it Is hard to tell whether there
are IS or 16 pounds of milk In milk
pail, it's still harder to tell by just look
ing at a feed whether 1t will produce
IS or 16 pounds of milk. Two feeds
that look alike may produce entirely
different results when fed to the COW.
It all depends on the ingredients in the
feed their quality, and how they are
blended.
EDlToR's NoTB: Our local Ptirina feed
dealer has checkerboard dairy ra-
tions to be fed Straight with home
grown roughage. He also has checker
board dairy concentrates to be mixed
with home grown grains to make up
dairy rations that are fed with home

advise COW owners how to feed their
herds to the best advantage, using az
much of their home grown feed as pos

Results Of experiments at the Purina
Experimental Farm show that COW
may consistently produce Is pounds of
milk per milking on one ration and IS
on another. Although that extra pound
is only a pint more and hardly shows
In the pail, it really does add up to
quite sum.
This is the way it figures. If a COW
Is fed 10 pounds of dairy ration each
day and milks 80 pounds of milk daily,
that means pretty fair return on the
feed she eats, If milk is sold at $500
per hundred weight. However, If she
is fed the same amount of a better feed
and gives one pint more each milking,
that feed is worth two cents more per
milking or four cents more per day.
In other words, the better feed is worth
four cents more for each ten pounds,
forty cents more per hundred, or eight
dollars more per ton. An extra pint
more per milking does make a differ

new law which reduces personal ex-
emption to a record low of $4,000
for married persons and $500 for

To ease their burden, the Keystone

intricacies of the law and emerged

relief is afforded by the great num-
Der OF reductions authorized by the
Act, many of them relating parti-

G. O. P. INTERNATIONAL
TIMBER

Among the prominent Maryland
Republicans being considered by
leaders in the faction Of former Gov
ernor Harry w. Nice as favorable
candidate for the governorship in
1912 is Amos w. w. Woodcock Of
Salisbury, former president of st.
Johns College, Annapolis and form
er national prohibition director.
Two other Eastern Shoremen be-
ing given consideration by the lead
ers, it is said, are Davis c. Bur-
roughs, wealthy Easton resident,
and George w. Moffat of Queens
town, an industrialist and agricul-
turist. Both of them were delegates
to the last Republican National Con-
vention.
Leaders of the Nice faction ex-
pect Governor O'Conor to seek a
second term. Defeat of the one-term
amendment to the Maryland con-
stitution at the last elections paved
the way, they argue, for the COVER
nor to be candidate for reelection.
Others on the western side of the
bay discussed as favorable to the
Nice organization leaders as possible
gubernatorial candidates are:
Tasker G.. Lowndes of Cumber-
land, president of the State Board
of Education and son of a Repub-
lican governor.
j. Glenn Beale of Frostburg, form
er chairman of the State Roads Com
mission.
State Senator Joseph A. Wilmer Of
Charles county, farmer peoples
counsel and Republican floor leader
in the House of Delegates in the
sessions of 1927 and 1929.

GREEN CHICKS ARE
MATCHED FROM EGGS
WITH GREEN YOLKS

It sounds almost unbelievable, but at
the International Baby Chick Conven-
ton In st. Louis, Missouri, last sum-
mer thousands Of persons had their
first opportunity to see colored chicks
Matched from eggs with bright, vivid
green yolks.
For several years now, poultry nu-
triton specialists have been controlling
yolk color. The range Of control has
been from yolks with almost no color
to bright red or green. The purpose
has been to show that q hens ration
not only directly controls yolk color but
that it also controls certain nutrients
and vitamins that are In the egg.
This year, Purina Mills decided to
try Matching chicks from eggs with
green yolks. What happened was so
startling that the Purina display ct the
big annual convention Of hatcherymen
featured chicks Matched from green
yolked eggs.
The display included . pen Of five
pullets eating a laying mash In which
the green coloring matter was mixed.
Actually, eggs with green yolks were
produced right at the convention. Nat
urally, the eggs attracted great deal
Of attention.
Each day, two newly Matched chicks
from green yolked eggs that had been
previously set were autopsied and dis.
played In a glass case. The effect Of
the ration fed the breeders could plain.
ly be seen. It was amazing how the
green coloring matter had beer trans.
ferred from breeder hens ration to tho
chick to the egg.
According to G. 8. johnson, head OF
the poultry department at Purina Mills,

eggs the proper nutrients for the de-
velopment OF the chick embryo IL be-
