The Turco-American negotiations are in an unfavorable position; it depends upon the deci sion or wasliington wnetner a con vention will be signed at Lausanne. Ismet Pasha took Riza Nur Bey with him Monday to give him added strength in has talks with Joseph C, Grew. The first Indication that the situa tion was less hopeless came when Is met announced that Turkey could do nothing for the United States with respect to the protection of Christian populations in Turkey, who were Ottoman subjects. This was a distinct disappointment because of the previous intimation in Ismet's answer to Mr. Grew's letter, inquir ing as to what steps Turkey would adopt for safeguarding the legitimate Interests of minorities, that he would enclose of copy of the national pact, which includes references to the rights of minorities. Today, however, Ismet said that after mature consideration this seem ed impossible because the national pact provided for treaties concern ing minorities with other countries, anil it was not suggested that the United States should negotiate a treaty on this subject. Coming down to the question of the American claims for damages to property, Ismet suggested two alter natives. II proposed that a distinct ategory of claims to be agreed upon should be mentioned In the treaty and submitted to arbitration, failing in accord in specific cases. The sec ond alternative was that the fixing of a category of claims should be ad- ourned for later negotiations be tween the two governments and that when requests for damages fell into the field, thus restricted, they should he submitted to two appraisers, one a Turk and the other an American.

The heavy work Is making the de mand for fast sewers very keen Pays to Market Spring Cockerels at Two Pounds With the present price of re-da, says the Ohio Agricultural college, farmers cannot afford to keep their spring-hatched cockerels until the holiday season to sell them. After a growing cockerel reaches 1 to 2 pounds It is an Inefficient consumer of feed for meat production. The price of cockerels Is always higher during the spring and summer months than In the fall wheu many farmers dispose of their surplus cockerels. The slump In price Is due to two causes: (1) The large ilze cockerel is less desirable on the table. (2) The cockerel must compete on the market with the surplus hens, with a resulting slump in price. In case the cockerels are kept until fall they should be crate fattened, as they will then bring a premium on the market. The birds should be con fined In a small coop or fattening bat tery and fed twice a day on the fol lowing ration: 70 pounds of corn meal, 80 pounds high grade shorts or mid dlings, and 10 pounds of wheat bran. This should be mixed wlti. sufficient sour skim milk or butter milk to make a mixture of the consistency of a thick cream. The birds should be starved 12 hours after putting In the crate and then fed all they will clean up of the above feed In 10 minutes. The amount of feed fed can be grad ualy increased until two full feeds a day have been supplied. No water should be given during the feeding period. A gain of 25 to 40 per cent can ba made in 12 to 14 days. PROFESSIONAL CARDS DR. ALEXANDER REID Physician and Surgeon UMATILLA OREGON Geese Will Bring Very Good Margin of Profit "One who has not had tho pleas ure to watch a little gosling pop out of the shell and see It grow to ma turlty would be surprised to know In how short a time It Is done. At first It Is a little downy fellow, weighing not over four ounces ; a round, fluffy little 'ball of wool. The wing feathers and breast feathers start to grow first. They will con tlnue to have a downy appearance until they become two or three months old and then the feathers will begin to replace tha down. Dur ing their growth they will generally average an additional pound, for each month. From a commercial stand point the geese will bring a tery good margin of profit, for the cost of feed Ing them is very small where they can range upon vegetation. The demand at the markets for these fowls dur ing the holidays is much grseter than the supply, and the prices at which this product sells at this period should be a good Inducement to taost who have the facilities to raise, toro geese. Green Feed Is Valuable for Its Mineral Matter Green feed Is valuable, not only for Its succulence, which makes It palat able to poultry, but also because It contains mineral matter, ineledlng nu tritive constituents, necessary to sus tain life, promote growth, sad assure reproduction. Foremost amahg theso constituents are the vitamins the ab sence of which from any ration, wheth er for humans, animals or birds, will ultimately prove fatal. Therefore It behooves every poultry keeper, whether backyarder, specialist, or farmer, to make provision for an ample supply of green fee In some form, and In view of the shortness of our growing season, and the late spring experienced this year, no time should be lost. Poultry Notes Ducks should be fed wet mai principally. Wheat, oats and barley sre tha best of small grains for poultry. If your hens do not oroduce mnt- than ninety eggs each a vear rh. not making a profit. The early chick Is stronrer. mm able to overcome obstacles thin hi. later-hatched brother. Burs, worm and green feed supplement his diet. Cleanliness is essential tn r.i.in. ehlckens. See that all houses and coops are thoroughly disinfected bo fore the chicks are placed la them.
