YANKS OUTWEAR

FRENCH WELCOME SAYS REP. KING Doughboys Threaten to Turn Bolshevik if Not Sent Home Soon, Says Congressman. WASHINGTON, D. C. July 31. That the Americans have outworn their welcome in France was asserted by Representative, King of Illinois today upon his return from a six weeks' visit to European battlefields. Representative Purnell of Indiana return ed with him. Mr. King was nursing his left wrist which was injured at Brest when a tolshevik, hiding behind a hedge, threw stones at the American con gress men and the American nag on their machine. "France, with the exception of offi cialdom, does not appreciate what we did for them," said Mr. King. "The feeling toward us is not kindly. We have worn out our welcome and the French people are glad to see us go. I have noticed a similar sentiment when an outsider interferes in a family quarrel. France is glad to hasten our departure. Want to Come Home "Our boys are unanimous in their desire to go home and are openly threatening, 'If we don't got ,back to America soon we'll turn bolshevik.' When we reached Coblenz It seemed as though the entire army of occupation dashed up with, 'When are we going home?' "Although American soldiers are not permitted formally to fraternize with ihe Germans the sight of a doughboy with a frauleln is a common one and 200 requests have been received from soldiers who desire to bring home German wives." Regarding sentiment for the league of nations, Mr. King Eaid: "The great mass of people in France while not actively opposed to a league of nations, treat the idea indifferently and as Utopian theory. They doubt if the league will be carried on in the interest of the common people, if it is organized. When you mention the league to a Frenchman he shrugs his shoulders." Corn Benefitted By Thursday's Heavy Rain Corn was given a new lease on life when early this morning a heavy rain fell over Wayne county and vicinity, said Walter Ratliff. The crop was badly in need of this rain, for in some placeB the corn was turning yellow and beginning to dry up. "Root rot" of corn, which is prevalent In some parts ofthe state has not made an appearance in Wayne county as yet, according to Ratliff. In some vicinities this disease is said to have destroyed as high as 10 per cent of the crop. BRITISH MINISTER WILL BE HEAD OF McGILL UNIVERSITY Sir Auckland Geddes.

Early Pasture Shotdd Be Provided far 79 3 Livz Stock fcBy P. Q. HOLDEN. LIVE stock raising never has been successful without pasture. The experienced stockman plans to have pasture as much of the year as possible. There Is a time In the rery early spring when natural pasture grasses do not furnish abundant grazing; and, besides, pasture grasses should not be grazed in early spring. Early pasturing always dwarfs the plants, but the stock should have lasture. August or early September is the time to prepare for a field of pasture for next spring. Sow a field near the barn to rye or winter wheat Prepare the seed bed well, have It fertile, sow plenty of seed. If the wheat or rye makes a rapid fall growth it will do no damage to pasture It In the fall, but do not graze It closely. Early Pasture Necessary for Cattle. This field will furnish a green bite for the sows and ewes at times during the winter, when It is not covered with snow, and the wheat or rye will make more rapid growth than pasture grass in early spring, thus providing the much-needed early pasture for all kinds of live stock. Give Regluar Pasture a Chance. This special pasture can be grazed moderately and the animals taken off after the natural pastures havp made some growth. This plan permits the rye and wheat to head ou and they may moke a fair crop of grain. Or the pasture can be grazed closely, ratting on it enough animal to keep It down, and as soon as the regular pasture has made sufficient growth to maintain the stock, the rye or wheat field can be plowed and planted to silage, corn, soy beans, alfalfa, or rape. This plan for early pasture gives th regular pasture a chance to gfcln some growth and Is a money maker for the stockman. Breeding animals that have access to green feed during the winter and early spring are healthy, providing they have suitable dry feed. The live stock mothers well and gives more milk for the young. This special field will furnish Ideal grazing for the poultry.
