GEM PLEA OF BANKRUPTCY TO BE DISREGARDED

Allies Should Begin at Once to Fix ; Indemnities, Declares Commissioner. (By Associated Prs) PARIS. Feb. 7 Germany Is making: utmost efforts to have the allies believe she is nearing bankruptcy, declared Raoul PereL chairman of the budget commission of the chamber of deputies and former minister of Justice, In discussing today the financial problems facing the peace conference. The first measures of the conference along financial lines, he said, should be to take measures to prevent Germany declaring herself to be an insolvent debtor or a bankrupt state. "Then," Peret continued, "we should Immediately fix the amount of our account against Germany, which she must be made to pay to the full limit of her financial ability without consideration for her feelings. It will be time' enough then to decide about the method of payment. She may pay either In capital Immediately or In yearly Installments. Guaranteed by Tariffs. "I do not believe that Germany at the present time is in a position to pay a large amount In cash. We must not demand from her a too heavy payment now, so as not to place her in a position where she might argue that we are strangling her and killing the goose that Is to lay the golden eggs. "Whether the Installments we shall demand from Germany be twenty billion, thirty billion or fifty billion francks yearly depends entirely upon our decision, after an Investigation, as to what amount Germany will be able to pay. These payments would be guaranteed by customs tariffs decided upon at the conference, reserving for ourselves the right t oralse such tariffs should Germany fail to meet her obligations." Commercial Club News Bulletins The Commercial Club will make every effort to help E. F. Murphy make the garden movement a success again this year. ' The ' committee to work with him -will not be appointed I until the new committees are named for the year. ; An energetic member of the Merchants' section has condensed a ' conpider&blo amount of recent reading and study of mercantile problems into the following suggestions: Use newsj.aper advertising, as it Is the most effective and cheapest. Give special attention to window displays. Make the display simple and use colors and arrange to call attention to the article you wish to sell. State the price even though you make the quality appeal. Fix your lights so they will shine on the goods and not on the street. Teach your clerks how they may become expert salesmen. i Be neat, accurate, honest and courteous. Don't use guess work in extending credits.

National Crop Improvement Service. THE breeder; should use his own mind . and Judgment in mixing the percentage of ' his feed for hogs. He can find all the tables in Henry & Morrison's Feeds and Feeding and in his agricultural college bulletins; and if he has the facilities can arrange and balance a ration on the basis prescribed. He would, however, save himself a great deal of time and labor and get more exact results should he ask the state feed Inspection department for its published lists Of all mixed feeds registered in the state, and choose those ready to feed which will meet his requirements. He will find It to his advantage to know the game. He must use his own noodle in determining the quantities of each feed for each lot of pigs at different times during their growing period. Professor Eward says : "The young growing pig -weighing 30 to 60 pounds should eat about one pound of protein for every four. poundJ of carbohydrates.

These submarines made eight-day Vmd "When the pig reaches 100 pound! in weight, about one pound of protein to five pounds of . carbohydrates la correct. "At 150., pounds it should be ln creased ; for each pound of protein six pounds of carbohydrates. 'The fairly well-grown hog, 240 to 300 pounds, In fattening will do well on one pound of protein to eight pounds of carbohydrates." After listing the various feeds and combinations of feeds used In extension hog feeding tests at Iowa Agricultural college, Professor Eward says: "Each buttermilk hog drank 32 pounds of buttermilk, ate less than half as much of the $2 corn, only onethird as much of the $90 tankage, only two-thirds as much of the $55 middlings, and actually reached a weight of 296 pounds some 62 days before the hog without buttermilk did." So it would seem that buttermilk is one of the best hog feeds. Where It is not freshly available it may be had in a dried powder form. .There are ten pounds of solids In every hundred pounds of liquid buttermilk. The rest Is water.

PRAISES RICHMOND MUSIC INSTRUCTION

"The schools of Richmond, Ind.. where Ralph C Sloane Is supervisor of music, are doing a wofx which can not fail to make surrounding : towns fall in line sooner or later." D. A. Clippenger, well known vocal teacher of Chicago, writes in an article on orchestra music in the school, which appeared in the February number of the "Music Monitor." ; ' The article explained that the school board in Richmond furnishes many instruments and keeps them in repair and that the instruments are loaned to the pupils of whom there are over fifty in the high school and Garfield orchestras. Mr. Clippenger praised the credit system also, laying stress upon the fact that one-fourth of the credits required for graduation may be obtained in music, thus giving the pupils an opportunity to major himself in music as in history or mathmatlcs. The high grade of music played by the orchestra in concert work was spoken of by the writer, and the work of Will Earhart, former supervisor of music here, now in Pittsburg, was spoken of as the . foundation of . the phesent system, which he refers to several times as excellent.

The argument grew heated and almost personal before its close. Judge Bond reserved, decision and promised to hand it down tomorrow morning. Margaret - M.
