Mvkl PLE POMACE FOR FEEDING Mm Valua Almost Equal to Corn Silaao .Dairy Farmers Will Do Well to Got supply. ADDle Domaee has a feeding value bout equal to good corn silage. It contains a little less filter, but a larger amount of extract matter and tat. It also baa about the same digestibility. Dairy farmers who live near elder mills would do well to secure and. save all the apple pomace possible. The beat way to keep It Is to put It In a aflo, but It will keep for one or two iFtont la a pile out of doors. "After (the silo has been filled with corn and 'baa settled, there is generally room to put In several tons of apple pom ace. Feeding tests In Massachusetts and Vermont have given quite satisfac tory results. In the latter state the jpomace was shoveled Into the silo, leveled off and kept In good condition hrtthout further care. The quantity If ed varied from 10 pounds per day at the start to 85 pounds dally after the cows became accustomed to It Possibly the best way to feed It is to give about IS pounds dally with as much- corn silage and what hay the cows will eat, which will usually be from 10 to 16 pounds. In addition, dairy cows in milk should have five to ten pounds of a suitable grain mix-Iture. POWER SPRAYERS ARE HANDY Outfit Needed for Each Thirty Acres Lightness Is Important on Rough Ground.

DMCULP Elsewhere in our columns we give an account of the main reasons why the peace negotiations are being de layed. The following cable dispatch, from Paris, from Clinton W. Gilbert, one of the bjst informed of Amer ican newspaper correspondents, will give some idea of the practical diffi culties which are arising in conse quence of the delay: Politics in the peace conference is only that part of the great world drama which is enacted upon the stage at Versailles' with the nations as the spectators. What is going on behind the scenes is a great world struggle for com mercial dominion, a -struggle which broke out the instant the armistice was signed and which is not wholly consistent with the professions of those who seek to lessen international competition for the sake of future peace. Commercial interests attached Al-sace-Larraine to Germany. Commer cial interests color what is going on in Paris now. Commercial jealousies will prove the biggest obstacle to a quick agreement in the peace con ference. Commercially the allies and co-belligerents are watching each other with hawk's eye vigilance. Business representatives of the various nations in the inter-allied organizations which were created during the war have carried on the most solid negotiations which have been conducted so far, and inevitably sharp conflicts and divergent views have resulted. The economic situation is of equal importance with the political situa tion. Indeed, it controls the political situation, for, if mishandled, a panic may result and from it may come Bolshevism. Confession International Distrust It stands out as an interesting fact that while the peace envoys plan in ternational political co-operation the international economic co-operation, strong during the year, has been dis integrating. This contradiction in tendency is a big obstacle to the peace agreement. The general impression has existed that the inter-allied economic organ izations would have to continue dur ing the period of reconstruction but such organizations have repidly lost jround under the pressure c! j . . le financial interests and because i..any of the officials in charge are not sympathetic with the idea of govern ment control. The result has been confusion and international distrust. Nations suspect each other of seek ing to take an unfair trade advan tage, while, at the same time, their own commercial interests are busy trying to seize every opportunity for business ; expansion created by the armistice. While the nations con tinue in this frame of mind they are certainly not in the humor to agree on peace conditions. The situation is described by Americans who are familiar with the 'international economic status as "a period of in sanity."'. This springs from the instant per ception everywhere among the com mercial interests of the opportunities offered their country by peace, with out a corresponding perception of the dangers and wakness confronting each country while acting alone and entirely selfishly. The agitation of the British ship ping interests, which Was familiar to Washington before the close of the war, is typical. They beheld the vast opportunities for world trade while American shipping was tied up in transporting armies to France and back. They did not realize, however, the power of American shipping in competition six months hence, coupl ed with the control of raw materials America holds. This is said with no intent to criti cise the British. As a matter of fact, the Americans say they find the Brit ish generally more willing to co-op- erate than America or the other al-j lies have been. The commercial in terests of all countries have behaved ' similarly. j Americans saw their big opportun-, ity to sell vast stores of steel and other supplies to reconstruct Europe. They did not see the possibility of I being shut-out from the market and the dangerous financial situation that would naturally follow from having their excess commodities left on their hands. They did not see, moreover, that if American materials were paid for by further European borrowing or by the importation of luxuries from Europe an equally hard financial situ ation would result. French commercial interests saw in the possession of steel from Alsace Lorraine the opportunity to make France self-sufficient. They even talked of erecting a high tariff wall by government control of the pur chase of foreign raw materials, which might drive from France tLe frt' i houses already established ' twere. They did not see the retaliation they might thus invite. ' x ' 1 Business interests everywhere, with huge stocks of raw materials, such "as steel, copper, nitrates and foods, left on their hands as the result of the sudden cessation of war manufactur ing, saw the opportunity to rush into neutral markets and, on the basis of low prices, make long contracts and thus monopolize those markets for years to come. , Possible Fnancial Disaster . The result of all this jockeying for international commercial advantage has been to show clearly the possible financial disaster that lies in several directions. If international jelous is keep the markets closed, stocks of raw materials, suddenly left by war without a market, will cause a sharp falling of prices, with heavy loss to producers and bankers. Unregulated throwing open of the markets must involve large extensions of credit and consequent inflation to the danger point. The financial situation after the war is inevitably delicate, and many observers agree that only prompt and highly intelligent inter national action can save the situa tion. Two views are already expressedTs to the form such action should take. One advocates the complete throwing down of the bars, which means not only the removal of all trade restric tions between allied nations, erected during the war, but a resumption of trade with Germany and other enemy nations as quickly as possible, to pro vide the maximum trade. The other view proposes to return to the full government regulation existing among the allies during the war. At this moment the advocates of govern ment control seem to be gaining ground, which is indicated by the recent formation of an allied organ ization to control food distribution in central Europe, a projected new organization to control the financing of the newly created states and a reported stiffening of the interna tional control of shipping in London. VALUABLE BOOKS " BEING DISTRIBUTED It is announced that in co-operation with the office of the State super intendent of education, the food ad ministration has begun the distribu tion of 16,000 text books. "Food Saving and Sharing," to the teachers in North Carolina under high school grades. The new book, which was Gasoline Power Outfit With Tower for Spraying Tops of Trees over the rough land. The same would be just as true of muddy land. Gen erally speaking, it is very Important that a sprayer be liht. Then the engine should be one that will run all day at a pressure as high as 200 pounds. Of course, a pressure lower than this will do the work, but If an engine will get hot and stop at a pressure of 200 pounds when It is new, when it gets old It may get hot nnd stop at a much lower pressure. In fact, 200 pounds is a good pressure to run at. PROBLEM OF FRUIT GROWING Possibilities of Country Are Great and Yet Slightly Tested Plant Some Trees.
