GERMAN PLAN
OF SUBJUGATION
People In Hostile Towns Are
To Be Treated Civilly Un- .
der Conditions
_ I
GBUMAN PLAN .
Berlin, Auk- 26.?The commander.! of
the German troops are issuing pro
clamation to the inhabitants of every
hostile town they occupy as follows:
"Citizens?A good body of the Ger
man army under my command has oc
cupied your city. Inasmuch as the
war is car'ie'd on only between the nr
mics in due form the life and private
property of all inhabitants under the
following conditions:
"1?The inhabitants must strictly
avoid every hostile act against the
German troops.
"2?Food and forage for our men
and horses to be furnished by the in
habitants. Every such delivery will bo
paid for at once in coin, or a- receipt
will bo issued to be redeemed after the
termination of the war.
";$?The inhabitants arc to house our
soldiers and horses in the best man
ner, and to keep their houses lighted
at night.
"4?The Inhabitants are to put* the
roads in pasible condition, to remove
all obstacles erected by the enemy, and
lo give the best support to our troops
in order that /iey may be ale to fyl
111 their task, doubly difficult in the
bhostile land.
"It is forbidden to collect in
crowds on the streets, to ring the bells
or to communicate with the enemy
in any way whatsoever.
"6?All weapons in the possession
of the* inhabitants are to be handed
over at the town hall within two
hours.
"7?The mayor, tho clergymen, and
four well reputed citizens are to appear
before me at once to act as hostages
during the stay of troops. TTnder these
conditions?I reapeat It?the lives ana
private property of the inhabitants are
perfectly secure. The strict disci
pline to which our soldiers ore ac
customed renders it possible-that no
inhabitant will be compelled to neglect
his business affal's or to desert his
home and hearth. On the other hand,
I shall adopt the most stringent mea
sures as soon as the above conditions
are observed. In this respect I shall
hold, the hostages in the first instance
responsible. Besides this, every citi
zen will he shot who is found with a
weapon in his hands, or committing
any act whatever, hostile to our foops.
Finally, the entire eity is responsible
for the deeds of every individual cit
izen and the citizens will do well to
keep mutual oversight over each other
in order that they may avoid the un
pleasant consequences that must fol
low upon any'.co-operation of the en
emy."
As a consequence of the non-obser
vance of such proclamations, a* num
ber of villages on the French frontier
have been burned and the inhabitants
severely punished..?., .

The Intelligencer has received from
Wade Stackhouse, president of the
(^outh Carolina cotton congress, a
lengkty article in reply to the letter
from Governor Bease with reference
to the recent controversy.
Dr. Stackhous*' denies that there is
any politics in the organization, which
Is composed of earnest men of all
factions. He invites Governor Blease
to join the congress and try to do some
good. One portion of the reply is ns
follows:
If you will point to one act of a
constructive natu?re you have advo
cated since you have heen governor
that has been of benefit to the farmer
I shall be glad to know it. You are
destructive and never constructive in
your methods*. You are now trying
to tear down an organization formed
to benefit not only the poor farmer,
but every other clans of farmers, white
and black, as well as almost every
other class of our people. This war ]
is going to couse loss and suflering to
everybody, rich and poor alike.

DAIRY and
CREAMERY
WHY BUTTER IS YELLOW.
Celer Is Lergsly Determined by Creed
Characteristics and Feed.
[Prepared by dairy divlbion. United States
. d?partaient of ugriculturo.]
I That the rich yellow color demanded
by the public lu diary products Is
primarily duo to the character of Ahe
cow's feed Lb demonstrated by recent
experiments carried on by the United
States department of agriculture hi
co-operation with the Missouri state
experiment station.
Chemical tests show that the yellow
pigment in milk consists of several
well known pigments found In green
plants. Of these the principal one la
carotin, so called because It consHMites
a large part of the coloring mat <* of
carrots. The other yellow pigi~?.nts
In the mllk.&re known as xnnthophylla.
These aro found in a number of planta,
including grass, but are especially
abur >it In yellow autumn loaves.
TL 3 pigments pass directly from
the feed into the milk. This explains
!
The corncrlb stiown In the Illus
tration holds 7,000 buBhels of corn
and cost $1.000. says the. Iowa Home
stead. There . Is no wood in It save
the frame about the'door openings
and a trap; in the 'center of tba crib
which is used' to empty the crib
rapidly when desired. There Is a
small clrcdlar ajr shaft In the cen
ter of the crib abput three and one
half feet In diameter and made ot
the same square tiling of which the
walls of tho crfb are made. Through
the square opening about two Inches
wide in this tiling the air enters
freely. The tile. Is so set that the
opening rises tow?Trt tho center and
thus keeps out much of. the rain
and snow. 2
I x ; ' i.V.- \ j . .
the well known .fact*that fresh green
grass end carrots Increase the yellow
ness of butter, the only, standard by
which the ayejrago person jpdges Its
richness. On the other band, a large
proportion of 'these pigments la de
posited in tba body fat and elsewhere
in.the cow. When the ration is chang
ed to one containing fewer carotin and
xaothophyll constituents, this boarded
?tbre. ft gradually drawn upon, and In
consequence the yellowness of Ute milk
does not diminish so rapidly as It
otherwise' would'. This yellowness in
creases, however, the Instant the neces
sary plant pigments are restored to the
ration.. '
Green grass Is probably richer In
Carotin than any other dairy feed.
Cows fed on it will, therefore, produce
the highest colored butter. Green
corn, In which xnntbpphylls constitute
the chief pigment, will also produce a
highly colored product On tho other
band, a ration.of blenched clover hay
and yellow corn Is practically devoid
of yellow pigments, and the milk from
cows fed upon It-wilt gradually lose
its color. It Is, of course, indisputably
true tbnt the breed does influence the
color of the milk /at. but vary the
ration and there will be a correspond
ing variation lu the color of tho milk
rot m each breed.
In.cows of tho Jersey nnd Guernsey
breeds the body fat is frequently of
euch a deep yellow color that some
butchers nud-consumers look with dis
favor upon- beef from these breeds.
For this prejudice there la absolutely
no Justification. The yellowness of the
fat springs from the same causes as
the yellowness of the milk fat, and
there ts no reason for objecting In one
en se to the very thing that is prised in
the other.

REMEDY FOR WHEAT PEST.
Oat Aphis Cameo an A'muai Lost of
Thouoando of Buahela.
{Prepared by United States department of
agriculture.)
The little insect that cnuses nn an
nual loss in this country of thousands
of bushels of wheat nod known ns tbo
"out aphis" cau scarcely be controlled
when once it has gained headway. Uy
proper precautions, however, serious
outbreaks can bo prevented. This in
sect often escapes notice, but it is prob
ably the taust widely distributed of
the important plant lice which attack
wheat and oats, mid its depredntlonB
are only excelled by the so called
"green bug."
As the oat npbis does not ordinarily
appear suddenly in great swarms, as
does tbo "green bug." it has never been
considered o pest of great importance.
It is easily overlooked by the cosunt
observer, especially in the fall, when
It occurs nt the base of the plants and
on the roots. However. It Is usually
always present on the wheat, und ob
servntlous lend Investigators to eon
slder that these parasites weaken the
plants and decrease the yield to nn Im
portant extent, even though they may
not be conspicuous and the decrease
In yield not enough to be recognizable,
as in the cose of the "green bug."
' Tbe adult wingless Insect in about
the sise ota pin bead and is yelluwlsli
green to olive green la color. The
winged Insect bns a black bend, the
t'bdomen being green and tbe antennae

or. Tbey **on change, however, to a
jdt thjjf black ubd retain this color until
tbey .butch h} the, spring, . . ,.
The' oat aphis occurs on grains hnd
grasses iurouRUunr tbe. summer. The
eggs arc laid but once* a 'year. In the
folk In tbe spring the ecus hatch,
und throughout the summer there are
sixteen or more generations produced,
all females. The last general Ion lu Ute
full contains both mules and females
As the weather becomes cooler some
of the females Reek the tower parts or
roots of wheat and other plants of the
grass family und here pass the winter,
or the winged Insects coming from tbe
grain muy seek such trees na the op
p!e. the egg laying fen:.tles of this
generation iu turn dup<isl:iug eggs on
tbe twigs and bronche?.
Tbe little wheat pest thrives best In
rank 'growing grain, as' In spots where
manure piles ur straw &:a>):s have
stood. Th?se pinces lire usually tbe
center of Infestation, and the Hoc may
be found tbi-r? even dunug tbe winter.
Therefore tbs volunter growth of
wheat that occurs Ir. the vicinity of
straw stacks or manure plies should
be plowed uuder er otherwise destroy
ed late In the fall In order to destroy
tbe plant lice breeding thereon. In
some cases It nth y bo desirable to de
stroy this vegetation even earlier?that
Is, before tbe winter wheat Is planted
or at least before It makes any growth
above ground.
The pasturing of cattle In wheat and
oat fields In Oklahoma and Texas dur
ing the late foil or early winter bas
proved a desirable method of destroy
ing tbe ." reeding places of tbe pest
As in the case of mnny other grain
pests, crop rotation is of mur* Impor
tance Id tbo control of this apbls.
Wheat (Jelds should be located as far
from the previous yenr'a grain fields
as possible, and especially should tb*&
bo planted some distance from stand
ins; straw stacks. It is also advisable
to plant grain as far ns possible from
apvle and other trees which harbor tbe
Insect during, the fall, winter and
spring months. ?
Direct applications, are hardly prac
ticable In grain fields, bat where only
small arena are bndly Infested spray
ing with btacklcnf-40 ?t Xb ?te of
one part of this Insecticide t' - 0 port*
of water, pi us .one pound .soap to
escb 100 gallons of npray liquid, will
doubtless prove efficacious, provided
tbe application Is thorough..
Tbe above remedial und preventive
