When the first light frost struck us came dismal mnews: “All fruit practically ruined.” Now, after the blizzard and real freeze, we read: “Much fruit in good shape.” Item: “Further reports from the Mich- igan fruit crop indicate that the damage to trees and buds as a re- sult of the resent freeze is not so great as was feared. Apples and pears have suffered little in some sections, and the loss to smaller fruit is less than first reported.” THRIFT AND ECONOMY IN.GERMANY. Germany is less than four times the size of Minnesota yet Ger- many’s foreign trade is $400,000,- 000 more than that of the United States. The balance of trade be- tween this country and Germany is now $100,000,000 ‘a year in Germany’s favor in manufactured goods alone. At the present time Germany is making money faster than any other nation and is second only to the United States in wealth, and at the present rate of gain will soon surpass us. Why? Germany has learned to pursue economic methods. Ger- many raises nine times as many potatoes as we do. The average bushel of wheat to the acre there is double the average here. The total amount of grain raised in Germany has doubled since 1880, although they have fewer farmers today than they did then, and thisis due to economic methods. We pollute our rivers with our sew- age, while Berlin fertilizes thousands of surrounding acres. Germany makes $60,000,000 a year out of her forests. Our forests cost us $1,000,- 000 a year in excess of income. Besides employing all her own pzople, Germany during the last year em- ployed 700,000 people from other the world’s attention and arouse us all to consider our interests more carefully.

PUBLIC GRAIN .ELEVATORS Manitoba Government to Take Charge of All in That Province. ‘Winnipeg, May 19.—The Manitoba government has appointed an elevator commission to take charge of and operate all the grain elevators in the province. D. W. McCraig, president of the Grain Growers’ association, is chair- man of the commission. The body is nonpartisan and will absolutely control the vast system through the province. The existing elevators will be pur: chased at cost, or duplicated if the owners refuse to sell. Business will be carried on at cost, plus sinking fund to retire the bonds. Millions of dollars will be invested and the grain men are in a panic, while the farmers are correspondingly elated. JOHN A. KASSON IS DEAD Veteran Diplomat ~Passes Away at ‘Washington. ‘Washington, May 19.—John A. Kas- son, former United States minister to Austria and Germany, is dead here.

OVEGOME OF A SUICIDE Lleutenant-Janney Killed Himself In the Ames Home at Fort William McKinley, in the -Philippines, Fol- lowing a Quarrel With His Wife, Whom He Upbraided for Making QGifts to- Their Host. Manila; May 19.—Upon instructions from Washington Lieutenant Colonel Robert F. Ames was confined to quar- ters and will be ‘courtmartialed on charges of cenduct unbecoming an of- ficer and -to- the prejudice of military @iscipline. h The action against the officer is a sequel to the investigation of the ¢ir- cumstances which led Lieutenant Clar- ence M. Janney of #ge Twelfth infan- try, U. S. A,, to take his life following a dinner party at the home of Ames at Fort William McKinley. The sui- cide’s wife remains at the fort and probably will be the chief witness at the courtmartial. A Filipino .coroner board of found tnat Janney committed s e and so reported to Major General William H. Carter, com- manding the department of Luzon. Atter examining the findings the gen- eral returned them to the board with instructions that it obtain additional testimony covering certain of the fea- tures of the case. Janney's death occurred on the night of March 12 last. On that even- ing Janney and his wife attended a dinner given by Ames. Captain Will- iam H. Jordan, Jr., also of the Twelfth infantry, completed the party. Quarrel in the Ames Home. According to the testimony of -the witnesses taken by the board Lieuten- ant-Janney and his wife quarrelled during the evening. Janney recog- nized in the home of his friend a cham- pagne cooler which had ‘belonged to im, but which Mrs: Janney had given to Ames. Janney upbraided his wife because of the gift and harsh words followed: Finally Janney demanded an apology from his wife and this was made. This ended the quarrel, accord- ing to the testimony, and the dinner was resumed. ) A little later, however, Janney left the house, returning soon with a re- volver, with which it was testified he shot himself, either through design or accident, in the presence of his wife and Colonel Ames. It was testified that Janney had rushed into the dining room and flourished the revolver while he talked wildly. Before the others could interfere, they said, he placed the revolver to his head and fired. Death followed quickly. Following the shooting Ames was placed under arrest, but a preliminary, investigation of the special board of inquity having cleared him he was re leased. The only witnesses of the tragedy were Colonel Ames and Mrs. Jannéy. Mrs. Janney testified that her husbahd and Ames had been good friends. and an army ONLY ONE IS TURNED DOWN Other Congressmen From Ohio Are Renominated.
