They insist, however, that the central powers cannot bind themselves to such condifions without a guarantee that the allies of Russia will realize and fulfill these conditions. The Russian delegates asked for a ten days' recess in the negotiations in order to put the proposal before Russia's allies. Count Czernin declared that the central powers believed that the basic principles uttered by the Russian delegates could be the basis of such a peace. He said they shared Russian condemnation of the continuation of the war for the sake of conquest. It is necessary to indicate most clearly, the Count added, that the Russian proposals could be realized only in the event that all belligerents obligate themselves to adhere to the terms of such a peace. The n foreign minister declared that the cen tral powers did not intend to annex forcibly territories seized during the war nor to deprive the nations of political independence lost in the war.

GLASS INDUSTRY IS WRECKED Germany Has Experienced Terrible Blow From the War and Business Is Woefully Crippled. TRACTORS USED IN ENGLAND1 m Used Prior to the war the German glass industry was an export industry. In the year 1013 glassware valued at more than 140,000,000 marks was sold in foreign markets. Since the outbreak of the war, however, the glass industry has been w rking under difficulties and its very existence is threatened, comments the Bremer Buerger-ZeitunBremen. In the first months of tho war, owing to the stoppage of exports, a majority of the glassworkera were thrown out of work. When the industry gradually thanks to the increasing demand of the military authorities and indir.tne.4, a new tho prescrved-foo- d menace appeared, as largo numbers of the workers wore drafted into the army. Several glassworkcrs are, as a rule, working jointly on a piece of glassware, and if hut one member of the group is taken awny it becomes difficult to form a now group. Then the supplies of soda were commandeered : fortunately, how ever, substitute materials were found which enabled the factories to conThe com tinue their operations. mandeering of straw and tho lack of freight cars has interfered with shipments, and now the glass industry, always a large consumer of coal, has had its supply of fuel reduced to less f. Thus, for example, than tho bottle factories are to receive only 15,000 tons of coal, instead of 37,000, which they had been receiving heretofore. In order to save coal the factories are expected to consolidate; but as there are hardly any places with more than ono factory, consolidation means a change of residence for tho workers.

Before the war she obtained most of her copper from the United States, taking over one-thiof our exports. She had a large stock at tho outbreak of hostilities, but this must long before now have been depleted. Since Germany has extended her sphere of influence it is probable some supplies are coming from other countries. The Serbian copper mines are now being intensively exploited by the Germans and Austrians, and good copper deposits are also said to have been found in Poland. Work has begun in lead and copper mines in Kielce, and in Miedziana, Lysa Gora and Olkuss the methodical exploitation of these ores has recently been started. rd t I COST AND POWER OF BIG GUNS. farmers are using tractors for plowing, reaping, hauling and light power purposes on a scale that puts in the shade the country where tho best tractors are made, observes the New York Commercial. In fcome of the Canadian provinces tho local gov ernments have assisted farmers in buying tractors. American consuls report that with British farmers, usually the most conservative of mortals, tractors arc becoming very popular because a tractor enables a farmer to do better work with a smaller staff and it is adaptable to various uses for which power is re-quired on the farm. Several American manufacturers of tractors are well represented in England and their sales are. growingfast. Demonstrations of tractors in operation stimulate demand and country fairs afford good opportunities for this. Recently a great plowing match for tractors as well as for n plows was held in conjunction with the annual county fair at Brantford, Ont., which attracted; hundreds of farmers, and numerous, orders were booked for deliveries to farmers' clubs all over western horse-draw- AHogKillingTime Remember we can supply your wants.
