In business, fortunes are not realized Unless your goods are amply advertised.
Swedes Ask Permission to Sell It.
Hunger Marches Continue.
Hunger Marches Continue. Stockholm — The Bakers' Association of stockholm presented a memorial to the state economic commission setting forth the state's obtaining surplus cute rye and wheat flour and asking the authorities to permit and to order them to use a certain proportion of oat or barley flour in bread. The bakers assert that the situation indicates with certainty that such a measure must be eventually resorted to and point out the advisability of doing it now instead of delaying until the time when the proportions of barley and oats must necessarily be greater than would be the case now.
A file of female factory workers estimated at 5,000 marched recently in an orderly manner through the eastern and western Stockholm to the office of the largest local milk company, where they demanded a better distribution of milk and lower prices.
Hunger demonstrations continue at various places in the kingdom.
METEOR LIKE SEARCHLIGHT.
Crashes Into Mountains and Illumi-
nates Whole Valley.
Bishop, Cal.—Illuminating the upper Owens valley for half a minute like a searchlight in the skies, a meteor of extraordinary size and brilliancy flared across from east to west one night and brought up against the high Sierra Nevada. There was a crash that could be heard for miles when the foreign body hit the mountain side far above the floor of the valley. It sounded like the impact of a projectile from a great gun against a fort. Residents were startled by the passage of the mighty streak of blue-white fire through the darkness and again by the loud explosion that followed concomitant fire. The gun stopped it. Then followed a tumbling of dislodged stones not far from the camp of the Round Valley Tungsten
MORGAN ON PATROL DUTY.
Financier's Son Assigned to Ship.
Young Iselin Also Enrolls.
New York.—Junius Spencer Morgan,
son of J. P. Morgan, who recently
received an ensign's commission in the
naval coast defense reserve, was called
into active service and assigned to duty
on a coast patrol boat.
Ensign Morgan has always been
interested in boats and sailing. Last
summer he shipped as an ordinary seaman on the U. S. S. Maine for the civilian training cruise.
Adrian Iselin 2d, son of C. Oliver
Iselin, who has sailed many cup defenders to victory, enrolled in the naval
boat school, born on the Navy
Paul Nevin, son of the late Edwin
Nevin, called at the naval reserve
office to enroll. Mr. Nevin came from
Tulsa, Okla. As a member of the
civilian crew of the Maine last summer
he made a record in gunnery.
Takes Four Into Her Charge on a Ranch.
-Santa Ana, Cal.-Four coyote pups have been adopted by a mother dog on the ranch of Arthur Pefey, north of Santa Ana.
The coyotes were found in the foothills back of El Modena by Virgil Pritchard, a high school boy, whose dogs fought off the mother coyote while Virgil got away with the little coyotes, Clarence Pefey had a dog with two puppies.
The four strangers were put on the ground near the mother and the puppies, who were busily engaged in partaking of a meal. Rathenebilded, the coyotes crept to the mother dog. The dog eyed the coyotes, then when they approached she began licking them, and soon the coyotes were just as busily engaged in eating as were their cousins.
CHARLES P. TAFT 2D ENLISTS
With Nine Yale Students Enters Artillery Service.
New Haven, Conn.—Charles P. Taft 24, son of William Howard Taft and a junior in Yale college, enlisted for the artillery branch of the regular army with nine other undergraduates. All the enlistments were of students who were under age for the reserve officers' training corps of the university and had consent of their parents. The squad will go to Fort Myer, Va. The students who were enlisted with Taft were John M. Anderson, Jr., Clinchnaut; Robert T. Calrins, Overbrook, Pa.; George H. Ennis, Jr., Berdy, Conn.; John E. Fasick, Altoona, Pa.; Francis T. McNamara, Clinton, Mass.; Cyril B. Mosher, East Greenwich, R. I; Albert H. Stackpole, Harrisburg, Pa.; H. S. Porter, Higganum, Conn.; Carl M. Thomas, St. Louis.
Child Falls From Claremont Boat Club's Float.
New York—In an effort to give her Teddy bear its first deep water bath Virginia Peterson, three and one-half years old, toppled from a float anchored off the Claremont Boat club, One Hundred and Eighth street and the North river, and was drowned.
The child was a prime favorite with your mother along the North river and with your father at the boat club, where the latter is used as mad. Robert Harris of 201 Worcester- sixth street recovered the body, but resuscitation was impossible even with a pulmotor.

PRINCESS TO WED
Ceremony Is Expected to Unite Japan and Korea.
EMPEROR TO SANCTION IT.
Prince Yi, Prospective Bridgroom, is Twenty Years Old and Princess Fifteen—Young Prince is a Student in Military Academy, From Which Hell Be Graduated Next Year.
Tokyo.—The secret already suspected of the visit of Count Terauchi, governor general of Korea, to Japan is now fully revealed in the announcement of the betrothed of Prince Yi, eldest son of the formal Emperor, the Princess Masako Nashimoto, first daughter of Major General Prince and Princess Nashimoto, says the East and West News agency. The prince is high in Japanese army circles.
The idea of the union and the choice of the lady are highly approved in Japan. Prince Yi is twenty years old, and the princess is fifteen, and both are receiving their education, so the marriage will not take place for a few years.
All the necessary arrangements have been considered except the formal sanction of the emperor and the formal approval of Prince Yi, father of Prince Yi, and Prince Yi, his brother—both stated to be matters of form, since Count Terauchi obtained the consent of the Korean princes before he left Seoul.
Princess Masako Nashimoto was born in 1901, and is now in the third year class in Peeress school. She will complete her course in the middle grade in 1018. She is one of the best students in her class.
The young Prince Yi is a student in the Military academy, from which he will be graduated next year. Since he was brought to Japan by the late Prince Ito several years ago he has lived entirely according to Japanese customs. A area of such a union originated with the late Prince Ito. No prejudice for a marriage of this sort is made in the constitution for the imperial family of Japan. As a result a revision in the constitution will be necessary.
MOTORMAN FOR HIS HEALTH.
Accident Discoveries Son of Well to Do Parents on Sand Car.
New York. - How Frederick M. Hull, Jr. the son of well to do parents, became a motorman to regain its health became known after a collision between a trolley and a sand car of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit company.
Hull, who is twenty-four years old, was charged of the sand car. As he was attempting to make a switch a passenger car in charge of John Doberty coming in the opposite direction collided with it. Doberty was taken to the Kings County hospital suffering from cuts and bruises.
It was learned after the accident that Hull was the son of Mrs. Irving T. Hynds, who married a second time. In his earlier years he was a popular athlete in Erasmus Hall high school. On June 10, 1915, he disappeared from his home and was absent six days. When he was found to be offering from a soldier he was contacted by a physician said he was suffering from amnesia and recommended outdoor employment. Four months ago he took the job as motorman.
GUM RACK FOR SCHOOLS.
Thinka Children Should Have It on Playgrounds.
Madison, Wits. -The State Education al Bulletin, issued recently, comments favorably on a suggestion of President J. W. Crabtree of the River Falls Normal school that there should be gum racks in schools.
"Pupils have a right to chew gum," said President Crabtree. "Teachers do it, but they know when and how. Why not teach these conventionalities to the pupils?"
To permit the pupils to chew gum on the playground and on the way to and from school. But what will the poor child do with his gum while the recitation or assembly room? A gum rack at the entrance of the room containing a number and peg for each pupil solves the problem."

Didn't Believe In Banks.
St. Louis.-Stories of gold pieces on a tray stacked six inches high. large sun-starved in out of way corners of a Gasconade town (Mo.) farm and of bills of large denominations stuck between the leaves of a family Bible form the basis of a suit brought in probate court by the heirs of George V. Miller, a wealthy farmer, who didn't believe in banks.

THE LEST DAIRY FEED
de From Grain from Which the Human Food Values Have Been Taken.
By Prof. F. D. Fuller.
The reason why the best dairy feeds are less expensive than the same grains on the farm is because the principal elements of human food are taken from these grains before they are ever made into feed. The by-products of cereal mills, glucose factors, malt houses, etc., constitute often more than 50 per cent of the total bulk of mixed dairy feeds of the better class. These oats, barley and corn by-products are considered by experts in animal nutrition as very valuable feed materials. After these cereals are ground in the manufacture of alcohol, for which the use is growing more im- residue daily in the arts, the solid residue daily in the vacuo, and is then known as "dried" milk. These are made from corn, these grains contain an average of about 30 per cent crude protein and 10 per cent crude fat. If made from rye, while valuable, they are of somewhat lower feed value. The barley residue contains over 70 per cent more crude protein than wheat bran and as much crude fat. In fact, their food value is largely increased by the process. All these products are widely used by the best dairy feeders and are relied upon very extensively in milk production. There is no doubt of the reason that if the supply of these products is radically limited or entirely exhausted, it would have a production throughout the country and the dairymen would have one more burden added to their already overtaxed strength.
Cottonseed meal is composed principally of the kernel, with such portion of the hull as is necessary in the manufacture of oil. Cottonseed meal, if choice, must contain at least 41 per cent crude protein. It is one of the richest of all feeds in this substance and carries about 8 per cent crude fat. On account of its extreme concentration it can be fed only in limnium and always in conjunction with sugar to furnish bulk. This meal is an important ingredient in many manufactured feeds.
HOME MIXED FEEDS.
National Crop Improvement Service.
When you buy your own rations, what does he? He buys straight feeds. Take cottonseed meal as a common example. There are a great many different grades of cottonseed meal, and the man who is looking for a low-priced feed is sure to get a low grade. The demand for cheap feeding ingredients has caused the quality to be gradually whithed down. Consequently the farmer nearly always works with feeds which he does not believe he needs to be. He does not get adequate state protection because presupposed do not go to a farmer's barn to draw food samples, and even if they did, it would be hard to get a complete chain of evidence.
A farmer has no facilities for having his feed analyzed and he doesn't know what he is working with. The analyses of mixed feeds costs about ten cents per ton, and if every farmer will read the various bulletins from the agricultural colleges he will soon notice those brands which can be depended on. There is no doubt that at the present the grain grain any farmer can save money by feeding his cereal crops and buying mixed feed. Cornmeal, oil meal and cottonseed meal are all high, but the by-products of barley and rye are more reasonable in price.
Corn has become costly largely due to the demand for pork and beef. Americans will have those meats at almost any price. This puts corn on a meat basis, and the dairy business will have to fall back on the by-products of grains.
GIVE COWS PLENTY OF WATER.
[National Crop Improvement Service.]
When cows are in full milk they require plenty of water. It is stated authoritatively that cows in full flow require 100 gallons per cent more water than when dry.
Poor feed sells to poor feeders
Only that part of the feed that digest is of use—the rest is mostly fertilizer material.
No protein—no casein; no casein; no milk; not enough protein—not so much milk; also not enough feed—not so much food.
Foods with the highest protein and highest analysis are usually but not always the cheapest to use.
Cows won't make milk out of water and air.
[National Crop Improvement Service.]
Starchy feeds like corn and oats often sell as high as protein feeds because of the demand for them for horses and other work animals. Starchy feeds are also good to fatten steers. That is why they are often as high in price as dairy feeds, which are strong in protein.
[National Crop Improvement Service.]
Home-grown grains can often be profitably traded for protein feeds. White oats are generally demanded for horse feed, they are nearly always 'too expensive for dairy feed. Oats by-products, however, are very useful for bulk.

A RAILROAD ARMY
They Will Be Part of Regular Force, and at Head of Each Regiment as Colonel Will Be Engineer Officer of Army-Construction Will Be Main Work.
New York.—Need for expert railroad men to repair the links in France is so pressing that an urgent call has been sent out by the railroaders war board to the various roads of the country for assistance in organizing nine regiments of railroad men to go at once to France. They will be a part of the regular army, and at the head of each regiment as colonel will be an engineer officer of the army.
The work of the board call for five construction regiments, one shop or repair regiment and three operations. Construction will be the main work of the men sent over, but the repair and operating needs are hardly immediate. A notice sent out by the railroaders war board says:
"The French railways are badly run down. They need more or less complete rehabilitation. France has no men who can be spared for this work. She wants all her men at the front. Before we can train to go into the treches we need, it is France's railroad wants, and we can do it immediately. Any men we send over must be soldiers, so it will be necessary for the railroad forces to enter the army.
"We propose to make up five construction regiments of six companies each to do this rehabilitation. Each regiment will have an engineer officer of the United States army as colonel and another officer from the army as an adjutant. The other officers will be made up of railroad men, except that the commissary will be provided by the United States army. Each leutenant colonel will be a chief engineer of a railroad or some other military experience. The captains will be taken from the engineers of maintenance of way, the leutenants from supervisors or road masters and the noncommissioned officers from track and bridge foremen. The privates will be track laborers.
"The pressing need just now is for officers for these regiments. They will require five chief engineers, thirty engineers of maintenance of way, ninety engineers or road masters, sixty track foremen, and forty bridge foremen. Each company will have 150 track laborers and fourteen bridge carpenters as private.
"The next important requirement of the French railways is for shop forces. They are short of men to repair their locomotives. It is proposed to organize a shop regiment, to be made up the same way as the construction regiments, except that the leutenant colonel will be a superintendent of motive power, the captains will be master men, the leutenants will be shop foremen, and noncommissioned officers gang foremen. The company will be made up of bollermakers, machinists, blacksmiths and their helpers."
TOY GUNS POPULAR.
Modelled After Anti-aircraft Weapons Used by Zeppelin.
Washington.-Teddy bears and miniature anti-aircraft guns are by far the most popular toys in Great Britain, says Consul Wilson in a report from the United States bureau of foreign and domestic commerce. Doyle bears have always been more or less popular, but recent events seem to have created a greatly increased demand for this toy.
The toy guns are modelled after the anti-aircraft guns which were brought in conjunction by the visits of the Zeppelin.
Toys that find the most ready sale are those of a military character.
NEW FORM OF "CON" GAME.
Two Inches of Butter Spread on Sand Sold to Chicago Consumers.
Chicago, Ill.—A new form of confidence game has been practised with success here during the last few days.
Several storekeepers and hospitals have reported to the police that they have purchased from agents tubs purporting to contain sixty pounds of butter, but have found when cutting into the tubs extended but one or two inches from the surface and that the rest of their purchase was sand.
The tubs were sold for as high as $19.50, making the price of the butter in the neighborhood of $4 a pound.
FAVORS DAYLIGHT SAVING.
President, However, In Doubt as to
Necessary Legislation.
Washington. — President Wilson expres-
sed his approval of the daylight
saving plan to a delegation headed by
Representative Borland of Missouri
and Marcus Marks of New York, pres-
ident of the National Daylight Saving
association.
The president told them the only quo-
nition he mind about legislation
to curve it he operation was whether
congress leaders would look to war
legislation, to which they have
tacitly agreed to limit the session's
activities. The subject will be taken up
with the leaders.
DOUBLE DUTY
A Dairy Ration Haa Two Main Uses— Life and Product. [National Crop Improvement Service.]
A ration is divided into two parts:
1. The part needed to maintain or keep the animal alive.
2. The part needed to make stored up material like wool, fat, meat or milk.
Milk is roughly in solids, one-third each casein (protein), fat and sugar. The casein in milk can only be furnished by the protein in the food. The fat and sugar may be derived from either protein, fat or carbohydrates.
If a cow has the ability to give 50 pounds of milk containing two pounds of casein, and only gets enough protein to make one pound of casein, then she will only give 25 pounds of milk.
A balanced ration is one that has just the exact amount of protein, fat and carbohydrates that the cow needs. Just what this is we cannot ever say exactly, because the amounts vary from week to week and no two cows are alike, nor are feeds alike.
A practical ration is one that has sufficient protein and enough total food to make the greatest amount of milk without the cow losing weight.
A commercially successful ration is the one that makes the most milk or protein, keeps the cow healthy and enables the use of the most roughage.
All the hay and ensailage cow can will keep her alive and make about 15 pounds of milk. Any more milk has to come from grain or grain feed.
The cow can usually use carbohydrates cheap in the form of hay and ensailage, and outside of clover, peas, etc., protein can usually be bought cheaper than it can be raised.
The average price of protein feeds with 20 per cent digestible protein was about $25 to $35 per ton before the war, but the prices are much higher now, while hay (clover) with 20 per cent digestible protein has been rated as the most suitable to the protein feed at $40 would furnish the protein about the same as clover at $10.
DIFFERENT COWS, DIFFERENT FEEDS.
No National Farm Improvement Service.1
No recommendation that we can offer nor any other form of nutrition can be made can be followed to the letter as a druggist follows the prescription of a physician. Feeds vary in their nutritive values, some being better than the average and some not as good, and cows vary in their ability to digest and transform nutrient. These cows make it necessary for the feeder to make judgment and not follow too blindly the judgments of others. Any good stock feed is recommended as a base, to be supplemented by home-grown roughage.
CONCENTRATES FOR RATIONS
Taken From an Article by E. S. Savage, Professor of Animal Husbandry, New York College of Agriculture.
[National Corp. Improvement Service]
A good rule to follow in all rations is to have at least three plants represented in the ration. There are seven factors which should be considered: (1) Bulk, (2) Digestibility, (3) Relation between the digestible protein and carbohydrates and fat, (4) Variety, (5) Suitability of the feeds to the animal and product, (6) Palatability, (7) Cost.
For example, choosing the cheapest feeds relatively, considering maural values, suitability and all, we would recommend the following mixture of grains as suitable for dairy at present prices:
600 pounds distillers dried grains.
600 pounds gluten feed.
600 pounds wheat bran or brewer dried grains.
600 pounds hominy feed.
600 pounds oil meal.
Professor Henry says that a cow requires three-quarterstars, an ounce per day per 1000 lbs. of wheat, and six-tenths of an ounce per day per 100 lbs. milk. Therefore, a cow which weighs 1200 lbs. and gives 30 lbs. milk should have 1.8 ounce salt. It must be remembered, however, that salt is generally included in high-grade dairy feeds: It is well to give cows access to extra salt. They will take what their roughage demands.
THE PRICE OF FEED.
Feed is handled on a smaller margin than coal, ton for ton. The retail feed dealer who buys in carload lots can sell as cheap as the manufacturer can in less-than-carload lots, the difference in freight rates being the dealers' gross profit. In nearly every instance, a group of farmers can order their feed, through a dealer, in carloads and make a material saving. The difference in freight alone will show a good profit.
Take the chill off the drinking water in cold weather and cows will drink more and produce more.
Don't figure too fine on rations, be liberal but don't overfeed. You can kill all of your feed by feeding more than the cow can assimilate.
[National Cow Impairment Service.]
The human element in daily feed is important. Two men may have the same equipment, one make good money, the other fail, while both are supposed to be feeding by the same system and the same tables.
Horse sense is good cow sense.
TERMS USED IN FEEDING
Scientific Nomenclature Reduced to Every-Day Meanings. [National Corp Improvement Service.] Stockfood consists briefly of three chief parts or compounds, omitting the water and minerals. They are: Protein (containing nitrogen), a muscle former. Fat (not containing nitrogen), a fuel or fattening substance.
Carbohydrates (meaning made of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen).
These three substances are called organic matter, because they will burn.
Mineral matter is called inorganic. An animal can live on protein alone, but would not under normal conditions, because protein (or albumin) is only found mixed with fat in the case of meat and with fat and carbohydrates in the case of plants and cereals. Familial examples of protein are white eggs, lean meat and the gluten—an ingredient out of wheat. Fat or oil we all know.
Carbohydrates include sugar, starch, cellulose, fibre, gums, etc.
To keep alive and not lose weight an animal must have small amounts of protein and larger amounts of fat or carbohydrates. They serve as building material to replace worn-out tissue and flesh and also to furnish power (energy) to move, work, and do all the inside work of the body.
The ash or mineral matter furnishes bone material and is also needed but abundant in nature. A growing need needs plenty of protein and ash (heme) food for carbohydrates and fat. A growing need needs less of either the first two, but plenty of the last two. A pregnant animal needs plenty of food for its unborn young.
BUYING FEED INGREDIENTS
Difficult to Buy Proper Feed Staffs at Random.
[National Corp Improvement Service.]
There are not a dozen feed stores in the country that carry in stock all the ingredients of a first-class mixed feed at all times and at reasonable prices, and usually they do not carry lots of the same high quality used by the mixers who work scientifically through the laboratory camp and a dealer to sell the cheapest quality. The quality of feed is seldom carried, because the average buyer will not pay the highest price. A good many experiment stations in a general way will advocate that a farmer mix all his own feed, but they are human like the rest of us and they will use recognized brands in their own feeding operations rather than go to the trouble and take the time to follow their own advice.
There are a good many hardset experiment stations which are kept as sort of a clinic for professors to practice theories upon. The poor brutes are used a good deal as guinea pigs in hospital practice. On the other hand the experiment stations are to be many of the finest animals ever bred.
The mixed feeds of the first grade can be fed alone or in connection with home-grown corn, oats or barley. Do this widens your ration, and it correct to do so if it will reduce your cost of feeding. Mixed feeds, therefore, are largely a matter of arithmetic.
You can usually get the result for less money than by feeding more expensive grains separately.
THE MANURIAL INGREDIENTS OF FEEDS.
Nitrate is the most important and most valuable cultivating element supplied by feeds, and it is in this element that they show the greatest variation.
The Connecticut Experiment Station states that it was found that the average mixed fertilizer contained 2.95 per cent nitrogen and showed in a table that eighty of fifty-two different feeds contained 3.93 per cent. Among this list is cottonseed and linseed, alms, gluten seed, middlings, brewers' millets, seeders' products, and a few of the feedstores. It is obvious, therefore, that a wide selection of feeds enhances the value of the manure and consequently plays an important part in farm economy.
BARLEY PRODUCTS
Prof. J. F. Seet, in the Annual Report of the Connecticut Agricultural Station for 1912, says: "That malt sprouts should receive more consideration from dairymen, especially in comparison with many of the proprietary mixed feed containing only from one-third to one-half as much protein as malt sprouts, prices being considered."
He also states that dried brewers' grains, prices considered, in connection with the feed's high analysis, is one of the cheapest high-grade feeds on the market.
**WHAT'S IN A MIXED FEED?**
*(National Crop Improvement Service.)*
A high-grade mixed feed suitable for an animal or breed of dairy cow should have high protein content, with an exact digestible analysis. It can be mixed with corn, oats, barley, or hay or other forage, which should be grown upon the farm provided the mixture would save the farmer any money. As a rule, the ingredients of the highest grades are corn, millers' grains, gluten feed, cottonseed meal, hominy meal, malt sprouts, brewer grains, linseed meal, pure wheat bran and salt. The best grades contain no cheap fillers of any kind and so the food is highly concentrated and roughage can be supplied at home.

AID OF GOVERNORS
National Defense Council Issues Warning Against Hysteria.
STATE CENSUS IS OPPOSED.
Areas Likely to Be Theaters of War Operations Designated and Recommendations Presented For Road Building-In Certain Contingencies May Fix Food Prices.
Washington.-Governors who sought advice from the Council of National Defense concerning their war activities at the national defense conference received their instructions in a detailed statement which covered a hundred phases of the work necessary to get the country in shape for a successful war against Germany.
The advice was in the form of answers to stated questions on industrial and military subjects. There ran through the document an apparent warning against hysteria in action which might hamper rather than accomplish the desired results. Here are some of the important points made:
First.-The national council recommends that the state councils shall encourage economy and discourage extravagant living and the purchase of luxuries among the people of their respective states.
Second.-In regard to the postponement of state or municipal works now under the law and not of pressing importance the council, in general speaking," advises that nothing now more way should be abandoned except under pressing necessity; nor should new projects be started not of pressing importance.
Third—The council has not made any suggestion for the postponement in any state of work on co-operative highway projects to such an extent that redistribution of public money will be necessary.
Third—The filing of a census by states of Maine for either military or industrial service, supplementing federal registration—a step which has been contemplated in some other states—was discouraged. On this point the document says: "The council does not desire such a census for the present. It is not needed just now and when completed and ready for use would soon be obsolete owing to rapidly changing industrial conditions."
Fifth—The council may in certain cases fix either or both minimum and maximum authorized by law, but holds that unregulation is passed it is impossible to make a definite statement.
In reply to advice in regard to the road building which would make the location and character of the highway better suited for military purposes, the council furnishes a copy of a letter from Secretary Baker to Secretary Houston giving in detail the areas likely to be the theater of war operations representing recommendations as to road building for military purposes. The areas in question are:
(a) The area about Long Island, including most of the states of Rhode Island, Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut and New York.
(b) The area about New Jersey, including much of the states of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina and Delaware.
(c) The Pacific coast area, including
(d) The Mexican border, including the southern part of the states of Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California.
(e) The great lakes area, including the states of Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Illinois and parts of Wisconsin and Minnesota.
COULDN'T SCARE SAILOR.
Officer Told Threatening U Boat Cap
tain to "Shoot Away."
London.—Douglas Duff, the fourth officer and the only survivor of the steamer Thiraca, sunk by a German submarine on April 27, says in depositions that three hours after the ship was sunk the German submarine approached the capsized boat, the stern of which had been blown off, to which he was clinging, and asked him the usual questions regarding the destroyed steamer and her destination. It was 11 o'clock at night and very dark. The submarine commander first threatened to shoot Duff, says the crew, but the commander insisted that he replying, "Shoot away." This commander then said, according to Duff, that he wouldn't waste powder on an Englishman and left Duff to his fate. He was picked up twelve hours later by a French fisherman.
ARMY NEEDS GENERALS.
Promotions Expected to Be Made Only Upon Merit Basis.
Washington.—The new national army will require about twenty-nine new major generals and more than 100 brigadier generals, according to cochairs of the war department. There will be a total of thirty-six divisions, each of which will have one major general and four brigadier generals.
The army act empowers the president to direct this discretion. The belter prevails that the president and secretary of war both are determined only upon merit and special fitness. This policy would coincide exactly with those of France and England, which are advancing younger men to the higher commands.

Tow’s proposed rates run from $65 for
the lose of total disability of one hand

Strong niinds, great hearts, true faith and ready hands
‘Men whom the lust of office does not icill;
‘Men whom the spoils of office cannot buy;
‘Men who possess opinions and a will; Z
‘Men who have honor—men who will not lie;
‘Men who can stand before a demagogue
‘And damn his treacherous flatteries without winking!
‘Tall men, sun crowned, who live above the fog

MISS LEALTAD'S CASE TAKEN UP.
On last Tuesday afternoon a committee representing the N. A. A. C. P and the citizens generally waited upon Commission of Education Wunderlich and Supt. of Schools Hartwell in regard to the dropping of Miss Grace Lealtad as a public school teacher. The committee fairly and squately stated its grievance and after several speeches pro and con and from the expressions of the city officials left hopeful that the matter would be amicably adjusted in the near future, which is a consummation most deceived to be bewished for, as it is due to the taxary green color citizens of this city that show the committee comprised Atty. W. T. Francis chairman, Rabbi Rypins, F. D. McCracken, Geo. H. Hazzard, E. S. Hall, Geo. W. Wills, Rev. D. E. Beasley, Rev. A. H. Lealtad, Dr. Val Do Turner, Atty. H. Turner, J. H.

In the widely read column the following appeared yesterday from the facile pen of one of our well-known men.
THOS. H. JONES.
OUR PATRIOTIC PEOPLE
HOLD A MONSTER FAREWELL TESTIMONIAL AND RECEPTION.
For the Minnesota Contingent of Colored Men Drafted and Send Them to Fort Dodge With a Patriotic Parade That Has Never Been Surpassed.
The big testimonial that was given for our drafted men of Pilgrim Baptist church and that was thought to be so grand, was completely over-shadowed by the Farewell Reception, in honor of our soldier boys, inspired by the patriotism, loyalty and generosity of Mr. Louis W. Hill, president of the Great Northern railway, that was held at Union Hall last Monday night, when patriotism, loyalty and generosity were into the hall, a large majority being compelled to stand during the splendid program.
At 6:30 P. M. there was a "chicken dinner" in the gymnasium provided for the drafted men, their mothers, sisters, sweethearts and wives by Mr. Louis W. Hill, prepared under the direction of Mr. L. A. Melker, chef of Mr. Hill's private car. Mr. Hill and a few personal friends were at the table and he acted as chairman of a little impromptu program. He made a short speech in which he told of the high esteem in which he held the men on his car. Among other things, Mr. Hill said that these men worked with him and he with them and that he could not get along without them. From the history given by Mr. Hill of the men and himself upon their private care for the past thirty-five years, it develops that during all of that time not one of them had resigned or been discharged and that those not now in the service had died in the service.
He called upon L. A. Melker, Louis Liverpool and Charles Collier, who responded most happily. They had such a splendid time that they forgot about the crowd that had gathered upstairs and when they went up into the main auditorium it was with much difficulty that they entered, their appearance be-

ing heralded by a vociferous demonstration that warmed the cockles of their hearts.
Attorney W. T. Francis, chairman of the committee, acted as master of ceremonies and the following program was carried out: Invocation, Rev. T. J. Carr, of Memorial Baptist Church; Opening, W. T. Francis; Singing of America; Address, Hugo V. Koch, representing Mayor Irvin; Duet, "Barcarolle", "Mesdames Gladys Brown and Harriet C. Hall; Address, Secretary of State, Julius Schmahl; Address, Frederick D. McCracken; Flag presentation.
B. L. White, on behalf of the Patriotic Ladies of the G. A. R. ; Mrs. Sarah Matthews, Dept. Pres. of Minneapolis, Mrs. Carrie Smith, vice pres., Mrs. Maud Bamford, Patriotic Instructor, and Mrs. Tennie E. White of Biddle Circle No. 38 of Minnesota, who made up the presentation party, presented the flag to White, who in turn to Mrs. George E. Eaton for the drafted men, White and Mrs. White made appropriate after which all stood and saluted the flag and all joined in singing the Star Spangled Banner.
Song, Battle Hymn of the Republic; Address, Charles Sumner Smith, Spanish War Veteran and Editor of the Twin City Star; Song, "Good Bye, St. Paul, Hello France"; Mrs. Gladys Brown; Address, Louis W. Hill; Song, "Star Spangled Banner"; Address, Curtis, adjunct General's Office; Music, Eleanor Smith and C. H. Miller; Address, B. N. Murrell; Song, "Good Bye, God Will Take Care of You." Little Ruth Brown, niece of one of the drafted men; Address, Col. J. Ham Davidson, Veteran of the Civil War; Song, Mrs. Harriet Oliver; Address, Rev. J. Mr. Henderson, St. James A. M. E. Church; Address, D. W. Lawler; Song, National Anthem. The speeches were all soul inspiring and were all rapturously applauded.
Hole had been furnished by a band of eight pieces under the leadership of W. A. Hilary, and the cites were over, dancing was enjoyed until 1:30 A. M., when the biggest demonstration ever held in the hall was brought to a close.
Each of the drafted men were presented two packages of tobacco by Mr. G. T. Williams, the representative of the Leggett & Meyers Tobacco Co. Tuesday morning the people from all the organizations various organizations assembled at the Popcorn where all were supplied with flags of various sizes, and they formed a parade containing over 1,500 persons and escorted the men to the Union Depot, music being furnished by the Glacier Park and Northern Pacific bands, the parade made a splendid dance, the cheerers achieved by the thousands who lined the streets.
At the depot the scene was impressive as the crowd while writing for the train bearing the Minneapolis contingent, prayed and sang spiritual and patriotic songs. Never before has such a scene been witnessed at the depot. Finally the train from Minneapolis with its 64 men backed in and the 41 St. Paul men entrained and the final good-byes were said and the train started for Fort Dodge, leaving many aching hearts behind. It was a scene that will never be forgotten by those who took part in it.
Testimonial and Parade.
State Representative George Nordlin of the Eighth Ward and a member of the draft Board, was a conspicuous figure in connection with the parade.
The committee that had charge of the testimonial and parade comprised: Atty. W. T. Francis, chairman; Forl

C. Walker, secretary; B. L. White, John Brown, J. W. Kelley, A V. Hall, J. W. Cleary, Atty, Hammond Turner, Rev. A. H. Lealtad, Rev. D. E. Beasley, Rev. B. N. Murrell, Rev. J. M. Henderson, Rev. G. W. Camp, L. A. Melker, Chas. Collin, C. E. Jones, C. H. Miller. The committee was ably assisted by Mr. W. R. Mills, advertising manager of the Great Northern Ry.
C. H. JACKSON.
The attention of the readers of THE APEAL is called to the fact that Mr. C. H. Jackson is a special salesman at the splendid establishment of the AMERICAN HOUSE FURNISHING CO. 22 East Seventh street, and stands ready to demonstrate to you his ability as a furniture salesman if the people will only show their appreciation of his holding the position by insisting that he serve them when they call at the American to buy furniture. This may lead to the promotion of some colored man to the position of salesman. When you wish to buy house furnishing to the American House furnishing Co. ask for Mr. Jackson and thus support him in doing his bit in trying to make good for the race. Mr. Jackson as a furniture man "knows his stuff."
