P" '/ici; .V TWO IMPERFECT LEAGUE 1 BETTER THAN NONE Pomerene Says He Will Take Chance on Any Such Charter ONLY ASSURANCE OF WORLD'S PEACE Amendments Desirable, But May Not Be Obtainable Now. Cleveland.?-Speaking here in suppert of the League of Nations, Senator Pomerene of Ohio, a Democrat, of the Senate foreign relations committee, said that while preferring amendment to the proposed constitution so as to make it more definite and to .specifically exempt from its provisions the Monroe doctrine, he would support it. whether it was changed or left untouched. The address was delivered at a luncheon of the Cleveland City Club. "Whatever of imperfections there may be in the proposed League of Nations,M said Senator Pomerene, "1 .submit that up to date no pciter piau has been proposed by any of the critics of the measure. They and we hope that some means may be devised whereby to prevent war in the future. The opponents have pointed out some defects in this plan but they give nothing- constructive in their place, and we may say as we choose, the world will not forgive those in authority if they do not exert themselves to the utmost to bring about some plan which will give promise and hope for the future." Discussing recommendations made by Senators Lodge, of Massachusetts and Knox, of Pennsylvania, Republicans, that consideration of plans for the League be deferred until after peace has been established, Senator Fomerene said the League and the peace treaty were so intertwined that one without the other would be worthless. "I recognize that the proposed conA 4 " * 1 1 L? n n rrAil '' (fX'lUUUn lit IlUC (Ujjicmi) 111 laugVM) he continued; "that it is poorly phrased and that it is written in the involved anil somewhat stilted form that characterizes many diplomatic, documents. Even President Wilson's bitterest enemies, do not even presume to charge him with being responsible for its language." Senator Pomci-ene said he would prefer to have amended section seer*. which gives Great Brtiain and her dominions five votes in the body of delegates, but added that an examination of the document showed safeguards which relieved this feature 01 its principal objections. "For one, I am willing to try the experiment, tne senator conciuuea. "I submit that whatever the results iray be, the of Forte for peace in this txhaJF cannot be worse in. their consequ&aces than was the war. "She danger is not yet over. So long fA the Allied troops are in the f.eld there may -be no dagger from tire German armies. But there is an enemy looming up in the Far East which threatens to be even as destructive to the civilization of the world as the German forces?that is the spirit of lawlessness which prevails among the Bolsheviki and it Germany and Austria, evOn the com n?on foe of our civilization, the com inon foe of all government?and i behooves the United States and hei allies to take counsel for the defense of humanity.

Washington.?Imposition by the : French government of an imports i embargo similar to the British is re- < garded by government officials here as evidence that the Allies have com- v pic ted their plans for industrial reconstruction and now are proceeding to put them into effect. , Great Britain and France have established a pool in this country to . control whatever purchases they, need to make and Ttaly is cooperat- J ing with them to a limited extent. !1 As a result trade experts do not think there will be much sale for American-finished products in the Furopcan countries for some time to come, it being the announced policy ef the Allies to do without those ar- ; tides which they cannot manufae- i tare at home. Basic materials still a ill be obtained in the United States and probably much machinery into the making of which technical skill and scientific knowledge enter, but it is believed the groat bulk of American goods will have to be marketed elsewhere. A distinct advantage Tor the United States is seen in the policy of the Allies, who necessarily rust curtail their competition in the foreign field in order to take care of their home population. The Allies' dscpendence upon this country for basic materials and machinery to start their commercial i ife anew may develop a new role for American capital in financing European industries, reversing the condi:ion which prevailed until the war pegan. America has more surplus gold ,ban any other country, officials say, , ind can relieve European scarcity by ' taking industrial bonds at a profitable rate of interest or government ponds at a lower rate, in either case contributing to a revival of business ,vhich would mean greater value for the millions of foreign securities now uld in the United States. o IN LOVING MEMORY.

Improvements nre being constantly made m the poultry plant operated by the Division or Poultry Husbandry of Clomson College. The main object in establishing this plant was to enable the students taking the poultry course at the College to study and handle typical specimens in the popular breeds of poultry, and also to supply breeding stock of high quality to the farmers of the State and to others who wish to improve the breed of chickens kept at home. The following breeds ore represented: Barred Plymouth Hocks, in which both the cockerel-bred and pullet-bred lines of breeding are being carried on separately; Single Comb Rhode Island Reds, White Wyandottes, Single Comb Buff Orpingtons, Dark Cornish (Indian Game), Black Laugshans and Single Comb White Leghorns. Every specimen in these breeding pens has been personally selected, and many State Champions, blue ribbon winners, and fowls of exceptions.' | merit can be found therein. For example, the cock heading the? first pen of Rhode Island Reds is a brother of the State Champion Male; the cock at the head of the Barred Plymouth Rock pen for producing exhibition cockerels came from Judge Cosh in New Jersey at a large outlay; the dark Cornish pen contains females that were never beaten in the shows ot South Carolina. For four years Clomson College tired the Tom Barron strain of heavy laying Single Comb White. Leghorns. The stock and eggs of this strain have j l.nn.. ?.t-_ * ? ' Miniriuiiittu over mu* ounr nun the fomales am certainly heavy ogp, producers. However, there is or\?> ch jeetion to this strain of White Leg horns and that is their unfitness for exhibition purposes. Since every otheT breed of poultry kept at the College is of the highest quality, the Torn Bar ron White Leghorns with their bif combs, high tails and sometime?! brassy plumage looked entirely out of place. This year a breeding pen of tire beat exhibition strain of Single Comb White Leghorns has just been obtained from the leading breeder of II linois. The male won second at the recent Chicago Show in a class of over thre.e hundred Leghorns, while the females are of the same high 1 quality. As many chicks as possible will be reared from this pen so that the flock of White Leghorns will be buili up to its former number. i While it is not the intention of the Division of Poultry Husbandry to grow stock for sale or to sell eggs for hatching, it frequently happens that fine breeding and exhibition birds can be obtained and also a few sittings of eggs from some of these high class breeding pens. That the farmers and wrecuers o? tiu* "?uue arc availing themselves of this opportunity to obtain the boat bred ing stock and egg* is shown by I lie fyct that the demand far exceeds the supply. Further informal ion can be obtained from the Division of Poultry Husbandry, Extension Service. Clomson College, S. C. PRESERVE EGGS. Water Glass Keeps Them art Two Cents Per Dozen. Clem.son College.?The preservation of eggs in a solution of water glasp is increasing in popularity every year. It is unquestionably a successful method of keeping fresh eggs from spring until the winter months. The process is very simple and no loss can be sustained if the eggs are placed In the solution the day they are laid and the solution is pure and suitable for the purpose. Unless a good grade of water glass for preserving eg*-* can he obtained from the local druggist, it is preferable to order the liquid direct from the manufacturers. One gallon of the "E" brand used will make sufficient preserving solution to cover from fifty to eighty dozen eggs. A gallon can shipped by prepaid Parcel Poet costs a little more tkan $1.00. The expense of the solution is, therefore, less than 2c per dozen tggs. Wooden kegs, tuba or pails, stone crocks, galvanized Iron cans, or any [ other convenient vessels will serve 1 the purpose. It is important to keen the vessel covered tightly to prevent the preserving solution drying down and exposing the eggs. At. least two inches of solution should be nbove the top layer of eggs. The vessels containing the eggs should be kept under the house or in a cool place in sumtnnJ i?i ih<* mntrv in cold weath er. It has boon found, however, that even if the solution froze solid the eggs were not injured in any way. The name of the manufacturer of water glass and further information ran be obtained from the Extension Service of Clomson College.
