STARTING A FLOCK OF SHEEP Purebred Ram Is Most Important Con sideration—Will Return Purchase Price Tenfold. By far the most Important considera tion In starting a flock of sheep Is to get a good ram. Get ns good ewes as can be had at the price you want to puy and the best ram of the desired breed that you can afford to buy. The kind of rain one uses at the start and on succeeding generations of the ewe Inmbs dropped will be the kind of sheep that will be In the flock at the end of four or Ave years. Get a good purebred ram at the start and use nothing but purebred ranis of the same breed on the young ewes as they come Along. It does not take long to grade Bp a flock by this means. Good rams return their purchase Poor ones, grades or crossbred rams pre dear at any money. THE ALAMANCE GLEANER US HESS 10 COHSS ASKS FOB STMOf WAR Asks That Army of Half Million Be Raised On Basis Of Uni versal Military Service President Appeared Before Joint Ses sion of Congress to Mske Fateful Address Just ae News Wsa Received of Sinking of Armed Amsrlcan Vas sal by German Submarine. Washington.—Prealdent Wilson aak sd Congress to declare a state of war existing between the United States and Germany. *, While the news of the submarining of the steamer Aztec—the first Ameri can armed ship to sail into the war rone—was being told from mouth to mouth In the Capitol, the President, appearing before House and Senate In Joint session, asked Congress to recognise and deal with Germany's warfare on America. The President stated that war with Germany would Involve practical co operation with the government* now at war with Germany, including lib eral, financial credit*. The President made it clear that no action was being taken against the Austrian Government and tha other nations allied with Germany. President WHaon spoke a* follown: "I have called tha Congreiaa into extraordinary session because there are serious, very serious, choices ot policy to be made, and made Imme diately, which It was neither right nor constitutionally permissible that I should assume, the responsibility of making. "On the third of. February, last, I officially laid before you the extra ordinary announcement of the Impe rial German Government that on and after the firat day of February It waa lta purpose to put aside all restraints of law or humanity and use Its sub marines to sink every veesel that sought to approach either the ports of Great Britain and Ireland or the Western coasts of Europe or any of the ports controlled by the enemies of Germany within tha Mediterranean. That had seemed to be the object of the German suhm*rlM warfare ear lier in the war, but since April of last year, the Imperial Government had somewhat restrained the commanders of its undersea craft In conformity with its promise then given to us that passenger boats should not be sunk and that due warning would be given t9 all other vessels which Its submarines might seek to destroy, when no re sistance was offered or escape at tempted and care taken that thel crews were givsn at least a fair chance to save their lives In their open boats. German Ruthlaaaneee. "The precaution! taken where meag er and haphazard enough, aa was prov ed In distressing Instance after In stance In the progress of the oruel and unmanly business, but a certain degrer of restraint was observed. Tha naw policy has swept every restriction aside. Vessels of every kind, what ever their flag, their character, thetr cargo, their destination, their errand, have bent ruthlessly sent to the bot tom without warning and without thought of help or mercy for those on board, the vessels of friendly neutrals along with those of belligerents. Hos pital ships and sh'ps carrying relief to the .sorely bereaved and stricken people of Belgium, though the latter were provided with sate conduot through the prescribed area* by the German Government Itself and were distinguished by unmlKakable marka of Identity, have been sunk with the same reckless lack of compassion or of principle. • * • • "I am not now thinking of the lose of property Involved, Immense and se rious as that Is, but only of the wan ton and wholesale destruction of the Uvea of non-combatants, men, women and children, engaged In purantta which have alwjiys. even In the dark est periods of modern history, been deemed Innocent and legitimate. Property can be paid for; the livee of peaceful and Innocent people cannot be. The present German submarine warfare against commerce la a war fare against mankind. "It is war against all Nation*. American ships have been sunk American lives taken. In way* which It has stirred ps 'very deeply to learn of, but the ships and people of other neutral and friendly nations have been sunk and 'overwhelmed In the waters In the same way. There his been no discrimination. The challenge Is to all mankind. Each nation muet decide for Itself how It will meet K. "The choice we make for ourselves must be made with a moderation of counsel and a temperateneee of Judg ment befitting our character and our motives ae a nation. We must put exotted feelings away. Our motif* will not be revenge or the victorious easertloo of the physical right of the nation, but only the vindication of right of human right of which we are a single champion "When I addressed the Congreee on the 2fth of February last, I thought that It -sould be suffice to assert onr neutrality rights with arms, our right to use the seas against unlawful Inter ference ; our right to keep our people safe against unlawful violence. But armed neutrality. It now appears. Is Impracticable. Because submarines are In effect outlaws when used as the German submarines have been used against merchant shipping. It Is Impossible to defend ship* against their attacks as the law of nations baa assured that merchantmen would defend themeelvee against privateers or cruisers, vlefble cralt giving chase upon the high seaa. It Is common prudence In such clrcam tfantee, grim necessity indeed, to en / deavur to destroy them before ■ they have ahojrn their own Intention. Ther mutt be dealt with upon light. It dealt with at all. ° j Rights of Neutrals. "The Oerman government denl»s the rights of neutrals to use arms at all within the areas of the sea which it has prescribed, even in the defense of rights which no modern publicist has ever before questioned their right to defend.- The intimation Is convey er that the armed guards which wo have placed on our merchant ships bo treated as beyond the pale of law and subject to be dealt with as pirate i would be. > "Armed neutrality Is Ineffectual enough 'at best; in such circum- i stances and In the face of such pre tensions, it Is worse than Ineffectual: it is likely only to produce what it was meant to prevent; it Is practically certain to 4r&w us Into the war with out either the rights or the effective ness of belligerents. There is one choice we cannot make we are Incapa ble of making. We will not chooaa the path of submission and suffer the most sacred rights of our nation and our people to be ignored or violated. The wrongs against which we now ar ray ourselves are no common wrongs: they cut to the very roots of human j life. "With a profound sense of the sol emn and even tragical character of the step 1 am taking and of the grave | responsibilities which it involves, but in unhesitating obedience to what I deem my constitutional dirty, 1 ad vise that the Congress declare the re cent course of the Imperial govern ment to be in fact nothing less than war against the government and peo ple of the United States; that It form ally accept the status of belligerent which has thus been thrust upon It «nd that It take Immediate steps not only to put the country in a more thor ough state of defense, but also to ex ert all Its power and employ all its resources to bring the government of the Oerman empire to terms and end the war. "What this w4M involve la dear. It will involve the utmost practicable co-operation in counsel of and action with the governments now at war with Germany, and as lncidendt to that, ths extension to those governments of the most liberal financial credits, in order that our resources may, so far as pos sible, be added to theirs. It will in volve the organisation and mobilisa tion of all the material resources of the country to supply the materials of war and serve the incidental needs and yet the most economical and of the nation In the most abundant efficient way poeslble. Army of Half Million. "It will involve the immediate full equipment of the n".vy In all respects, but' particularly In supplying It with the best means of dealing with the enemy's submarine*. It will Involve the Immediate addition to the armod forces of the United States, already provided for by law In case of war, at least 600,000 m»n, who should, In my opinion be chosen upon the prin ciple of universal liability to serrlo and also the authorization of sub sequent additional Increments of equal force so soon as they may be needed and can be handled In training. "It will involve also, of course, the granting of adequate credits to the government .sustained, I hope, so far as they can equitably be sustained by the present generations, by well con ceived taxation. "I say sustained so far as may be equitable by taxation because it seems to me that It wosld be most unwise to base the credits which will now be necessary sntlrely on money borrow ed. *~lt Is our duty, 1 most respectfully urge to pro* set our people so far as we may against the very serious hardships and evils which would be likely to arise out of the Inflation which would be produced by vast loans. "In carrying out the measures by I which these things are to be accom- we ahqpld keep constantly In , mind the wisdom of Interfering as lit tle as possible In our own preparation and In the equipment of our own mili tary forces with the duty—for It will. be a very practical duty—of supplying the nations already at war with Oer many with the materials which they can obtain only from us or by our as sistance. They are In the Held and we should help them in every way to be effective there. "I shall taks the liberty of sug gesting, through the several executive departments of the Government for j the consideration of your committees, measures for the accomplishment of the several objects I have mentioned. I hope that It will be your pleasure to deal with them as having been framed after very careful thought by the branch of the Government upon which the responsibility of conduct ing the war and safeguarding the nations will most directly fall. j "While we do these things, thess deeply momentous things, let us be very clear and make very clear to all the world what our motives and our objects are. My own thought has not been drfven from its hsbltual and nor mal course by the unhappy event« of the last two months, and I do nol believe that the thought ot tne Mar tlon baa been altered or clouded by them. ( "I have exactly the same things lb mind now that I had ln mind when ! addressed the Senate on the 22d of January, last; the same that I bad la mind when I addressed the Congrats on the 3rd of February and on the 26tb of February. Our object now, as then, is to vindicate the principles of peace and Justice In the life of -tlie world as against selfish and auto cratic power and to get up amongst the really free and self-governed peo ples of the world such a concert of purpose and action as will henceforth ensure the observance ot those prin ciples. Neutrality Not Feaelble. "Neutrality la no longer fesslble or desirable where the peace of the world is involved and the freedom of its peoples and the menace to that peace and freedom £•* in the exist ence of autocratic Governments back ed by organised force whtch Is con trolled wholly by their will not by the Will of their people. We h*vc seon GRAHAM, N.

Such de signs can be successfully worked only undef cover and where no one has the light to ask questions. "Cunningly contrived plans of de ception or aggression, carried, It may be, from generation to generation, can be worked out and kept from the light only within the privacy of courts or behind the carefully guarded confi dences of a narrow and privileged class. They are happily Impossible where public opinion commands and Insists upon full Information concern- I Ing all the nation's affairs. League of Democraclea. "A steadfast concert for peace can never be maintained except by a part nership of demoncrattc nations. No autocratic government could be trust ed to keep faith within' It or observe Its covenants. It must be a league of honor, a partnership of opinion. In trigue would eat Its vitals away; the plotting# ot Inner circles who coulJ plan what they would and render ac count to no one would be a corruption seat at Its very heart. Only free peo ples can hold their purpose and their honor steady to a common end and prefer the Interests of mankind to any narrow Interest of their own. "Does not every American feel that assurance bas been added to our hope for the future peace of the world by the wonderful and heartrending things that have been happening within the last few weeks to Russia? Russia was known by those who knew It best to have been always In fact democratic at heart. In all the vital habits of her thought, In all the lntl mate relationships of her people that spoke their natural Instlqct, their hab itual towards life. "The autocracy that crowned the summit of her political structure, long as K had stood and terrible as was the reality of Its power, was not In fact Russian In orgln, character or pur. pose, and now It ban been shaken off and the great, generous Russian peo ple have been added In all their native majesty and might to the forces that are lighting for freedom In the world for justice and for peace. "Here Is a lit partner for a league of honor, German Spy System. "One of the things that has served to convince us that (he Prussian au tocracy was not and could never be our friend Is that from the very out set of the present war It has Ailed our unsuspecting oommunltles and even our offices of government with spies and set criminal Intrigues everywhere afoot against our national unity of council, our peace within and without, our industries and our commerce. "Indeed. It Is now evident that Its spies were here even before the war began, and It is unhappily not a matter of conjecture, but a fact proved In our courts of Justice that the intrigues which haw mere than (once come perilously near to disturbing the peace and dislocating the Industries of the country have been carried on at the Instigation with the support and even under the personal direction of official agents of the Imperial government accredited to the Government Of the United States. "Even In checking these things and i trying to extirpate them, we have sought to put the most generous Inter- I prelation possible upon them because we know that their source lay, not n ' any hostile feeling or purpose of the German people towards us (who were, I no doubt as Ignorant of them an we ourselves were), but only In the selflsh design* of a government that did wha: it pleased and told Its people nothing | "But they have played their part In serving to convince us at last that that government entertains no real friendship for ue and means to act against our peace and security at Its convenience.

"We are now about to accept gauge of battle with this natural foe to liberty and ehall, if necessary, spend the whrle force ot the nation to check and nullify Its pertensions and Its power. We are glad, now that we see the facta, with no veil of false pre tense about them, to light thus for the ultimate peace of the world snd for liberation Ait Its peoples, the Ger man people*lncluded; for the rights ef nations great and small and the privilege of men everywhere to choose their way of life and of obedience.

We shall lie sat isfied when those rights have been as secure as tbe faith and the freedom of the natjons can make them. "Just because we fight without Ran' cor and without selfish objects, seek ing nothing tor ourselves, but what we ahall wish to ahare with all frse people, we ehall, I feel confldent, con duct our operations aa belligerents without passion and ourselves observe with proud punctilio the principles of fight and of fair play we protese to be fighting tor. I "I have eaM nothing of the goT ernmente allied with the Imperial 'government of Germany because they have not made war upon or challenged ' us to defend our rights and our honor. The Auetro-Hnngarian government has, indeed, avowed ite unqualified en dorsement and acceptance of the reticles* and lawlees submarine war tare «ta>t«d now without diegulee by the Imperial German government and It haa, therefore, not bean possi ble tor this government to receive Count Tarnowskl, the ambassador re cently accredited to this government, by the Imperial and royal government of Austria-Hungary, but that govern* ment has not actually engaged In war fare against cltlsens of the United States on the eeas, and I take the lib erty, for the present at least, of post poning a discussion of our relations with tha authorities at Vienna. We en ter this war only where we are clearly forced Into It because there are no other means of defending our rights. Aot Without Anlmue. 1 "It will be all the easier for us to conduct oureelvee as belligerents in a ' high spirit of right and fairness be cause we act without animus, not In enmity towards a people or with the desire to bring any injury or dlssd vantage upon them but only In arm ed opposition to an irresponsible gov ernment which bas thrown aside all considerations of humanity and of right and is running amuck. "We are, let me ear, again the ' sincere friends of the German people, and shall desire nothing so much as the early reestabllshmsnt of Intimate > relations of mutual advantage be j tween us—however hard it may be for I them, for the time being, to believe | that thla Is spoken from our hearts. We hsve borne with their pressnt gov ernment through all the fitter months becauee of that friendship—exercising a patience and forbearance which 1 would otherwise hase been Impossl ' Me. We shall, happily, still have an opportunity to prove that friendship .In our dally attitude and actions to, -vird the millions of msn and women of Oerman blrih and native sympathy ; who live amongst us and share our ' life and we shall be proud to provji It towards all who are In fact loyaLto » their neghbois and to the government [ In the hour of teat.

"It Is a distressing and opprsaalve duty, gentlemen of the Congress, which I have performed in thus ad dressing you. There are. it may be, many months of fiery trial and sacri fice ahead of us. It Is a fearful thing to lead this great peaceful people Into war, Into the moat tertlble and dis astrous of all wars, civilization Itself seeming to be In the balance.

INFERIOR HOGS FILL SPACE Fairly Decent, If Not Hlgh-Claee, Ani mals Can Be Made to Take Place of Razorbacka. The number of Inferior hogs that still keep* coming to market Is sur prising when we note the ease with which fairly decent, if not high-class, animals can be made to take the place of them. One cross on a razorback with a good aire of the lard breeds produces a porker which Is not a dis grace to Its owner nor ashatmd of It self. Two or three crosses with a well-bred boar on very ordinary and In differently-bred sows result In shapely, quick-growing hogs of considerable quality. They give account of the feed they eat ond bring a price when sold. Hut the weary-looking neutral greya with heads like the prow of a Viking's boat do nothing but fill apace on the feeding floor. Too soft for bacon, too thin for packers, too wasty When killed, too ex|>eii*lve to keep. PREVENT DISEASE IN FLOCK Farmer Should Not Be Dlacouraged If Hs Occasionally Loses Fowl- Must Be Expected. If you occasionally lose a chicken or a fowl, do not be discouraged because the most expert ponltrymen occasion ally lose a specimen and some losses must be ex(>ectcd.

(From tha United Stnien Department ot I Agrlcuttu-e ) Few agricultural products enn be utilized In such a great variety of ways j as the soy benn. The whole beans may be utilized for food as are the seeds of other legumes, or the oil alone niny be consumed. The oil resembles that of cotton seed In mnny wnys, but Is of a more pronounced drying character. In addition to its availability as n food, soy-bean oil has fouud Important uses In the markets of the world fbr mulilii* paints, varnishes, soaps, rubber substi tutes, linoleum, wuterproof goods ami lubricants. It la also used In the Orient for lighting und In the manufacture of printing Ink. In Japan the soy bean forms one of the most Important articles of food In use. It la one of the principal Ingredi ents In the manufacture of shoyu (soy sauce) mlso (bean cheese), tofu (bean curd), and nntto (steamed benns). The beans are eaten also as a vegetable and In soups; sometimes they are picked green, boiled and served cold with soy sauce, and sometimes as a salad. A "vegetable milk" Is also produced from the soy bean, formltyc the basis for the manufacture of the different kinds of vegetable cheese. T)ils milk la used freah. and a form of condensed milk Is manufactured from It. All of these foodstuffs are used dally In Japanese homes and for the poorer clnsxes are the principal source of protein. Used In "Diabetic" Fooda. The use of the meal remaining after the oil Is extracted from soy beans has become an linportunt factor In several Europeun countries during the last few years, and to some extent In America, as a food of low stsrch content. Soy beans contain at the most but a slight trace of starch, and extensive experi ments In America and Europe Indicate the value of the bean and Its products as the basis of foods for persons re quiring a low starch diet. Koy-liean flour enters largely us a constituent In many of the so-called diabetic breads, biscuits and crackers manufactured as food specialties. The flour or meal can be used successfully In the household us a constituent of muffins, bread and biscuits In much the way In which cornmeal Is used. Soy-Bean Milk. An artificial milk like that manufac tured In the Orient has been produced In small quantities In the I'nlted States, and recently a factory has been equipped to make ibis product. Such milk can be used for cwklng In the household, and by bakers, confectioners and chocolate manufacturers. If, how ever, the milk from the soy bean Is used lii-tin* manufacture of products as a substitute for lullk, the label* of POULTRY MANURE IN GARDEN Droppings Make Vegetablea Grow aa They Never Grew Before—Apply During Spring Work. In the garden, poultry dropplnga will make the vegetables grow aa they nev er grew before. In the spring when we spade up the garden In preparation for seeding, we work In a liberal qfauntlty of the drop- | pings, which have been saved during the winter months for this purpose, says a writer In an exchange. Many I people throw the droppings on the gar den during the winter, thinking they j are doing the right thing. However, I the nitrogen In the droppings Is lost when this course Is followed. SUCCESSFUL AS A HAY CROP Acreage Now Planted In Middle and louthwastsrn Statea la Large— New African Varletlea. Hudun grass. Introduced by the de partment of agriculture and first dls trlhuted In 1912, has proved remark- j ably successful as a hay crop In the Middle and Houthwestern states, and { the acreage now planted Is very large. ' Numerous related vorletles have now j been secured from Africa and are be | Ing tested, especially the dwarf va- | rietles, with larger grain that may be j harvested like oats.

"Is it safe?" la the first question to he considers! when buying cough edicine for children. Chamb -Main H Cough Remedy has long been a fa vorite with mothers of young chil dren as it contains no opium nor other narcotic, and msv be given to a child as confidently a* to an adult. It is pleasant to take, too, which is of great importance when a medicine must be given to young ! children. This remedy is most iff fectual in relieving co ig'is. colds land croup. Obtainable everywhere; ' adv. such product* should Indicate that the substitution has been made; otherwise It would constitute udulterutlon under the food and drugs net. In addition to Its use for flour and •nllk, the soy bean can he prepared as human food In numerous ways. The green bean, when from three-fourths to full grown, hits been found to cora imre favorably with the butter or lltna bean. The soy Ikmiii has been utilized not only In the United Htates but In European countries as n substitute for the coffee bean. When roasted and prepared. It makes an excellent sub stitute for coffee. In Asia the dried benus, especially the green-seeded va rieties, are snaked In salt water and then roasted, this product being eaten after the manner of roasted peanuts. Stock Feed. The value of soy-bean meal for pro ducing meat, milk and butter Is well established. It Is one of the cheapest of the highly nitrogenous feeding stuff* and Is therefore one of the most eco 4 noinlcal for bulunclng rations deficient In nitrogen. Its use In America Is con fined at the present time almost entire ly to tho l'aclflc states, where It Is con sidered a valuable feed not only bjr dairy men but also by poultry men. Owing to Its high coutent of protein, the meal should he used with the same precautions as are observed with othef highly concentrated feeds, to avoid di gestive troubles. As regards digestibil ity, soy-bean meal compare* very fa vorably with other oil meals. As ■ Fertilizer, The utilization of soy-bean meal fot fertilizing purposes has been confined almost entirely to Asiatic countries Following the recent production In the Kouthern states of bean cake and oil from American-grown beans, however, fertilizer manufacturers have taken an active Interest In the fertilizing pos sibilities of the meal. Analyses by the United Htates department of ture have shown that while soy-bean meal, like cottonseed meal, has a high fertilizing value when npplled directly, a more economical practice would bt to feed the meal to stock and apply tht resulting manure to the soli. Boy-Be«n Oil. * in the United States two methods ol extracting oil from soy beans —the hy druullc and the expellcr processes— are used by oil mills, the latter produc ing the highest yields. Kxteoslve test* with domestic beans Indicate that one j toll of seed will yield by the expellei | process an average of 80 gallons of oil and 1 VMi pounds of meal, tho differ- I once (about 17.1 pounds) representing | the loss due to cleaning and the evap- I oral lon of moisture driven off after tin beans have been crushed and heated.
