~ DUE TB WAR CAR

Fear of Conflict Between Britain
‘and Germany Affects Money
Markets of the World.’

London, July 22:—The London
Statist. expresses the opinion that
the phenomenal decline ‘in con-
sols is due to “the universal: be-|
lief at home and-abroad that’ war
is inevitable hetween this country
and Germany,” and has. caused
much © discussion in financial
circles

The Statist’s editor, Sir George
Parish, has been investigating

other German cities so that what
his journal says carries weight,
Here: are extracts from ‘the
paper:
“Whether the world judges
Germany too harshly or not. the
world. unquestionably believes

this country, and while that be-
lief exists it is vain to look fora
material recovery either in con-
sols or in German securities,
“Germany and England are
two of the richest countries in
the world, If we except France
andthe United States, they are
of all the great powers the rich-
est, Yet the premier securities
of both, stand lower than those
of any other great government,
“Tt is clear that the deprecia-
tion of Germany’s threes is far
greater than it could possibly be
when an actual crash is not im-
minent, were it not that other in-
fluences than mere money market
movements are sending it down,
and the other influences are the
universal fear that a war with
the British Empire is sooner or
later inevitable,
“Thus we find that, the ‘two
states in Europe which stand first
in enterprise and world-wide
trade are the very two whose

securities stand lowest, and the
‘only explanation of the phenum-

HOW 10 MEASURE

Simple Methods of Ascertaining
Area and Velocity of Streams
Fully Explained,

To ascertain the velocity of a
stream choose a place wheré the
channel is straight for 100 to 200
feet and has a nearly constant! #
width and depth; lay off on the
bank a, line 50 or 100 feet, in
length, marking eachend: then
allow smali chips to filcat down
the stream, noting the time re-
quired for these to traverse the
distance laid off of the bank.

The surface velocity in feet per
second is obtained by dividing
the distance in feet passed over
{by the fioat by the time in seconds
‘lit takes the float to travel this
distance. The average of several
such determinations will give the
mean surface velocity of the

by the coefficient 0.80 gives very
nearly the mean velocity of the
stream,

To obtain the area of the sec-
tion of the stream, stretch a tape
from shore to shore and take the
depths of the stream at intervals
of 2to5 feet. The average of
these depths may be assumed as
the mean depth of the stream.
This average multiplied by the
total width will give the area of
the cross section of the stream in
square feet,

The discharge is found by
multiplying this cross-section
area by the mean velocity, as
obtained by the float measure-
-|ments, the result giving the dis-
charge in second-feet, or, in

Clearing Logged-off Lands

‘fhere is a large area-of logged
off lands in the Pacifie Northwest
that awaits clearing in the inter-
eats of agriculture, Of this area
Oregon claims a goodly share.
That such. lands when properly
brought under the plow are more
than ordinarily productive is a
fact that has been fully estab-

lished in many sections by farms
thus reclaimed that yield most
excellent returns in fruits, grass-
es, grains and vegetables, The
first gost of these lands is small
as compared with that of open or
prairie lands, - The cost of clear-

circumstances and to the means
employed. Labor with the mat-
tock, the shovel and the torch,

clearing brush or grubbing land
is not considered in clearing
these logged off lands, though in
Bome instances, farms of consid-

this manner, a few acres a year,

growing: sons,”

This process, ‘however, ig ‘at
best a Siow otie and one likely to
discourage boys with farm work.
