Bridgeport, Conn., Sept. 9.— Simon Lake; the inventor of the submarines used in .the United States, says that ‘“‘we’re not near- ly so short of submarines as some people would like to be: lieve.’’ He added that when all the undersea boats now being built for the United. States navy are put into commission they will total seventy-seven. At Lake ‘actory it is said that our submarines are far su- perior to those of any other na- tion. There was a big howl made the other day when it was dis- covered that one of our submar- ines, the G-8, could cross the ocean and return without stop- ping for fuel or oil. .The G-3 is but-one of eight such boats which the navy will soon have. Also there will be.ten boats of a type capable of greater performance than the G-3, Mr. Lake added that our sub- marines are submitted to a great- er test than the boats built for fore'zn nations. The foreigners, for example, are tested to with- stand a pressure at 150 feet down, while ours are tested for 200 feet. Rowe-McChesney.

Amsterdam, Sept. 10.—De- mands of the United States that Austria-Hungary recall its Am- bassador in Washington have been received in Vienna, accord- ing to a dispatch received here today, and have caused a sensa- tion there. The dispatch states . that im- mediately following presentation of the American note, the For- eign Minister, Baron Burian, conferred with Emperor Francis Joseph, but the resule of the con- ference was not made public. “Tt can be stated however,’’ says the message, ‘‘that Austria will recall Dr. Dumba. It is prob- able that no successor will be ap- pointed at present, but that the affairs of the Embassy will be eenducted by one of the at- taches.’’ Washington, Sept. 10.—Friend- ly diplomatic relations - between the United States and Austria are in grave danger of interrup- tion today. > In the case of Austria there is a feeling that in repudiating Dr. Dumba’s: assertion that he was “acting directly under instruc- tions’’ from his home govern- ment in planing to disorganire American munition factories and demanding his recall, the United States may face retaliatibn and eventually a complete - severance of diplomatic intercourse. © his possession was found 4d patches from Dr. Di Fs government in. w! || arrive Fattening ‘Lambs on Fall Pasture Fattening lambs on fall pas- ture, in the cornfield or on for- age that would otherwise go to waste, is generally profitable be- eause of the low cost of feed. The class of lambs used are thin Western feeding lambs which weigh from 55 to 58 |pounds. These lambs can be pur- chased in single or double ked carloads at the Stock Yards~ at Kansas City, St. Joe, East St. Louis, IIl., Chicago, Ill., and Om- aha, Neb. A single decked car will hold from 150 to 160 lambs. These lambs can be purchased through any of the commission firms operating at any of the above named markets. With a medium growth of cow- peas or soybeans in the corn field 5 to 6 lambs can be pastured to an acre throughout the: fall sea: son. The lambs do not’ injure the corn crop.. The average’ gain'in a month is about five pounds a head. Soybeans and cowpeas should be pastured off before the hard frosts because the frost will cause the leaves to drop and the lambs do not like: the hard woody stems. Fall rye, ‘blue grass, rape, clover ahd meadows withstand hard frosts better than soybeans or cowpeas, Lambs coming from the range };country are not accustomed to feed found in the rich ‘succulent. most pastures at this season, ‘Thence it is advisable, when at the farm, to are in. ‘water - ona { ‘hem, higher than they have for a num- ber ‘of years. During the- first art of August the best grade of eeder lambs‘sold for $8.00 per hundred pounds and all present market conditions indicate there will not be enough feeders to sup- ply the demand. } : H.

Goltra, Demo- cratic National Committeeman, from Missouri, spent $350 to ride here from Harrisburg, Pa., today in a special train.

He found he could not get here by regular train until 1:30 o’clock this af- ternoon.. He left St. Louis, his home city, yesterday, So he wired Secretary. Tumulty asking to have: the pppoiniment set at 2 o'clock. He did not receive a re- ply and fearing his message had gone astray he chartered a spe- cial train at Harrisburg this morning and paid $350 for. it with the promise it would. him here in time for his pointment, Rr 3
