UNITED STATES DEMANDS ALL
E RIGHTS AT SEA FOR AMER
ICANS. :
PAGE TO PRESENT THE NOTE
British Policy Blamed for Depression
in Industry in This Country, and
~ England Is Given Warning of Public
Sentiment Aroused.
Washington, Dec. 30.—The United
States government on Monday dis
f:tched a long note to Great Britain
sisting upon an early improvement
in tl}e treatment of American com
merce by the British fleet.
It gave warning that much feeling
had been aroused in this country, and
that public criticism was general over
unwarranied interference with the
legitimate foreign trade of the United
States. :
The document, constituting the
‘strongest representation on this sub
ject made by the United States to any
of the belligerents since the outbreak
of the war, was cabled to Ambassador
Page to be formally presented to Sir
Edward Grey, the British foreign sec
retary.
Its preparation was begun a month
ago by Solicitor Cone Johnson, Coun
selor Robert Lansing and Secretary
Bryan, and finally during the last two
weeks had the personal attention of
President Wilson himself, who revised
its phraseology with minute care.
As the detailed point of view of the
United States in numerous specific
cases of detentions and seizures of
cargoes had been set forth in a series
of emphatic protests, most of which
have gone unheeded, the com
munication was couched in general
terms covering the entire subjec: of
the relations between the United
States and Great Britain as affected
by the latter’s naval policy, consid
ered highly objectionable by this gov
ernment.
The note declares at the outset that
the representations are made in 2
friendly spirit, but that the United
States considers it best to speak in
terms of frankness, lest silence be con
strued as acquiescence in a policy on
the part of Great Britain which in
fringed the rights of American citizens
under the laws of nations.
Since France has adopted practically
the same decrees on @&ontraband as
has Great Britain, the note is
virtually a statement intended for all
the members of the triple entente.
The document points out that com
plaints on every side and public criti
cism in the United States hold the
British policy as directly responsible
for the depression in many American
industries, a situation the seriousness
of which must be apparent to Great
Britain.
Feeling has been aroused on the sub
ject to such an extent, the communica
tion adds, that the American govern
ment feels compelled to ask for defi
nite information as to Great Britain’s
attitude in order that it may take such
measures as will protect American cit
izens in their rights.
Five months have now elapsed, the
note asserts, with no improvement in
the situation. In the meantime Amer
ican shippers have availed themselves
of various suggestions from the Brit
ish government, such as shipping car
goes to definitely named consignees in
JDeutral countries and the taking out of
certificates from consuls in this coun
try, which followed promises of the
British foreign office that the allied
fleets consequently would cease deten
tions of these cargoes. The situation,
however, is described as having hardly
improved after these concessions.

PRAISES U.S. STABILITY
SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY
M’ADOO IS OPTIMISTIC..
Sees “Tremendous. Era of Prosperity
Next Year After I.Reactlon”-
Going to California.
Chicago, Dec. 29.—W. G. McAdoo,
secretary of the treasury, stopped in
Ckicago a few hours on his way to
California. g
“I consider it phenomenal that this
country should have gone through
such a period of business stagnation
without a panic,” the secretary said
in substance. “But everywhere are
the signs of a reaction. I look to a
tremendous era of . prosperity next
year. The tide has turned and con
ditions are already greatly improved
over what they were six months ago.
We are going to have the greatest
period of prosperity we have ever
seen.
“What effect has the railroad freight
rate increase had in Chicago? Are
the roads taking on more men?” he
asked.
“l am receiving reports from all
‘over the country which show that the
rate increase and the organization of
‘the reserve banks have done much
‘toward steadying business conditions.”
~ “How about the effect of the Euro
pean war?” he was asked.
“Any war is injurious to the world,
yet we have reached the point where
the present war is in some ways an
actual benefit. Ever since it began
we have unconsciously begun to econo
mize, more so than we did during the
financial stringency which preceded
it.”

—Metz and Brussels Shelled.
London, Deec. 29.—An official an
nouncement given by the admiralty on
Sunday describes the most spectacular
battle in the history of warfare, in
which land batteries, warships, sub
marine boats, aeroplanes, hydroplanes
and Zeprpelins were engaged.
The battle is that which resulted
when the combined British sea and
air fleets attacked the German naval
station at Cuxhaven, on the south bank
of the Elbe’s mouth, across from the
entrance to the Kiel canal.
The statement follows:
“On Friday, December 25, German
warships iying in Schillig roads, off
Cuxhaven, were attacked b;" seven
naval aeroplanes.
“The attack was delivered at day
light, starting from a point in the
vicinity of Helgoland. ;
“The Britisk seaplanes were escort
ed by a light cruiser and a torpedo
boat destroyer force, with submarines.
As soon as these ~hips were seen by
the Germans at Helgoland two Zeppe
lins and three or four hostile sea
planes, acting in conjunction with sev
eral hostile submarines, attacked
them. i :
“A naval combat ensued between
‘most modern cruisers on the one hand
and the enemy’s air craft and sub
marines on the other.
“By swift maneuvering the enemy’s
submarines were avoided, and the Zep
pelins. were easily put to flight by the
guns of the Undaunted and the Are
thusa. o
-~ “The enemy’'s Zeppelins dropped
bombs near our ships without hitting
any of them.
“The Britisl. ships remained for
three hours * the enemy’s cost. Six
air pilots were picked up.
- “Three other air pilots were picked
up later, accoerding to arrangement, by
British submarines which were stand
ing by, their machines being sunk.
“One pilot, Flight Commander Hew
litt, is missing. His machine was seen
wrecked about eight miles from Hel
goland, and his fate is at present un
known.
“The extent of the damage done by
the British airmen’s bombs cannot be
estimated, but all the missiles were
discharged on points of military sig
nificance.
~ Berlin, via wireless to Sayville, L.
I, Dec. 29.—An attack by British
cruisers, destroyers and hydroplanes

December 25. .
~ “The admiralty reports that on De
cember 25 eight British ships made a
3 dash into a German bay. Hydroplanes
convoyed by them advanced against
‘the mouths of the German rivers and
hurled bombs ¢’ the anchored ships
‘there and a gas tank near Cuxhaven,
without hitting them or doing any
damage. The hydroplanes were fired
upon and withdrew to the west.
~ “Jerman airships and aeroplanes re
"connoitered against the British forces
and hit with bombs two British de
stroyers and one convoy. Fire'started
on the latter. Fog prevented a con
‘tinuation of the fighting.”

NECESSITIES FOR THE HOGS
Water Troughs Should Be Arranged
So That They Can Be Emptied
Quickly and Then Cleaned.
(By R. G. WEATHERSTONE.)
Hog troughs should be arranged so
that they can be quickly and thor
oughly cleaned and all feed left over
removed. : :
It is a good practice to have the
water troughs made so they can be
emptied as soon as the hogs have
drunk their fill, as this prevents
troughs from becoming filthy by the
hogs walking and rooting in them.
'Hogs need a moderate amount of
salt but if it is placed in large quan
tities 'where they can reach it at all
times occasionally they will eat more
than is good for them.
Never send a hog hungry to bed
any more than you would a boy. A
heavy feed at night will help te keep
up the heat. 3
After experience with both perma
nent hog houses, and small portable
ghelters that can be readily moved
from place to placey the writer con
siders the small colony house much
superior, so far as maintaining the
health of the swine is concerned, and
they are also less expensive.
Whichever type of house is used, it
should have a good floor that can be
easily cleaned and disinfected. In
dry weather a dirt floor becomes
worked up into a fine dust that is
injurious to pigs when inhaled; in wet.
weather it is difficult to keep the bed
dry. 4
Bedding for swine should be scant,
but of good quality. Forest leaves or
corn husks make excellent bedding.
Straw soon becomes ground into a
dust that is irritating to the lungs and
makes the pigs cough. When infected
with germs it is liable to cause chronic
pneumonia. ¢ ;
All hog houses should be kept clean;
they should be thoroughly disinfected
every two or three months and a coat
of disinfecting whitewash applied.

of a plug or valve was unsatisfactory
on account of the freezing up of the
parts, I set out to'devise some other
means and the result was the hinged
construction shown jin the sketch,
writes Thos. L. Parker of Wibaux,
Mont., in Popular Mechanics. For
this purpose the trough was mounted
on crosspieces in the usual manner
and hinges were placed at one side so
that the trough could be tipped upon
its side to drain. A small handle may
be nailed at the end of the trough to
make the tipping easier.
PROPER CARE OF THE HORSE
Idle Animals Often Are Injured or
Lost by Overfeeding—Many Colds
May Be Prevented.
A Pennsylvania man had a fine
young horse die from nothing in the
world but overfeeding when not in
work. If he had cut the ration down
to one-half while the animal was
standing in the stable idle, it would
not have had azoturia, a disease that
is almost always fatal.
When your horses take cold, a few
drops of oil of tar dropped into the
feed will do a lot of good.
‘When you put the horse in the sta
ble, wet from hard work or driving on
the road, ryb down first with dry
straw, then put on a light blanket,
later following with a heavier one.
A horse cared for that way will rare
ly take cold.
Selecting Sows for Breeding.
Every sow selected for breeding
purposes should be docile. An irri
table, nervous animal will prove un
satisfactory for breeding. Young pigs
do act always betray this peculiarity,
even though they possess it in a high
degr e, hence the character of the
motk :r should be noted in this respect.
Charcoal Is Valuable Adjunct.
Charcoal is a very safe and valuablé
adjunct to your feeding variety. A
little of it goes a long way, but that
little tends to keep everything in
health. If the coal is hard to obtain
burn some corn and feed that while
it is fresh at least twice a week and.
it will be of benefit to all partakers. '
