reparations. The German economic
machine must be free to function un-
der German control, unhindered by
any interference from the outside.
Minimum sums must be paid
once, or in the immediate future on
reparations, these to be increased in
proportion to the revival of Germany's
prosperity and according to her econ
omic conditions.
In order to put Germany in a posi
tion to carry out her part of the pro
gram, the experts propose to set up
an international bank, to have ex
clusive right to the issue of German
currency on a gold basis’.
The suggestion of the experts that
Germany’s economic machinery be
freed of any interference from the
outside means that the French and
Belgians must hand over the admin
istration of the Ruhr and Rhineland
railroads and abandon economic super
vision of the Ruhr mm mh and Indus
tries.
The French and Belgians will be left
free to maintain garrisons in the
Ruhr or Immediate vicinity. So while

Changing the Flavor*
and Odor* of Milk
Undesirable flavors and odors In
ndlk produced by feeding green alfal
fa, green corn or turnips may be pre
vented by giving these feeds at the
proper time or they may be reduced
by thorough aeration of tlie milk, ac-
oordlng to tests made by the United
States Department of Agriculture.
It Is shown that green alfalfa pro
duces much more pronounced “off”
flavors and odors than does green corn.
Even when 25 pounds of green corn
is fed one hour before milking the
milk Is only slightly tainted; if fed af-
ter milking nothing undesirable is no
tlceable. Feeding 80 pounds of green
alfalfa one hour before milking, or as
little as 15 pounds, produced objec-
tlonable flavors and odors.
In some regions root crops are used
to supply succulence in the fall and
winter, and'among these crops turnips
nre one of the most commonly given.
They hnve long been suspected of be
ing responsible for off flavors and odors
In milk. Feeding 15 pounds of turnips
an hour before milking produced
taints, and increasing the quantity fed
to 80 pounds greatly Intensified them.
By feeding even the maximum quantity
just after milking practically all the
objectionable flavors and odors were
avoided. As In the case of alfalfa,
slight off flavors and odors were re
moved and strong ones reduced by
aeration. The taints were more no
ticeable in the cream than in the milk.

ORDERED TO

By H. IRVING KING
said
that eminent lawyer, Mr. Thom

plainly to you.”
• Rob « mt Scott, to whom, the lawyer
was dealing out tills excellent advice,
was a young man, and a* a rule young
men do not take kindly to good ad-
rice. But “Bob” Scett di*pl«yed a re-
jeptive mood, which rather astonished
the legal gentleman.
"I’ve rather thought of that myself,”
remarked Bob after a moment’s con-
ilderation, “but you see I’ve never
been able to quite bring it off.”
“Indeed!" »aid Mr. Braisted, elevat
ing his eyebrows, “Any particular
ine," replied Bob. “Clara Mowbray—
tuess you know her.”
The lawyer beamed: “Splendid,”’
cried he, "couldn’t have chosen better.
Of course I know her. Fine girl. Have
you ever approached her on the sub
ject of matrimony?"
“Well, I’ve tried for a year or so.
I flatter myself she rather likes me."
"But did you ever ask her right out
to marry you?”
"That’s what Tm trying to tell you
about," replied Bob. “I tried to pro
pose twice. The first time was on

time in finishing whst I had to say, th»

between the noise and the stammering,
Clara didn't understand what I wa»

sort of blamed hoodoo about and laid
off a spell. Bat, do you know, Mr.
Braisted, when you spoke to me just
now about getting married I was con-
sidering with myself whether I had
not better call on Clara today and
make another try at it.“
“I certainly should do so," replied

hoping he would propose. »What did

- “Oh, nothing,” smiled Braisted,
“only that he was going to offer his

Miss Clara tonight. And a very con
siderable fortune goes along with that
heart and hand, Mrs. Mowbray—don’t
overlook that.”
Mrs. Mowbray was a good woman—
a well-meaning woman, bet she lacked
tact. It Is surprising how many well
meaning women do lack tact. So the
first thing the fond mamma did when

that Bob Scott was going to propose
to her that night and order her to ac

"He has not been In a hurry about it.
