Intimations from Paris hat the Reparations Commission might again take up the question of the status under reparations agreements of the' German shipping seinzed in this country during the war, were mot here today with the statement that any' payments to the commission on account of these ships was a Question for the United iStates alone to decide. It was appointed out that, when the United States entered the war, the ships were taken over by authority of an act of Congress, which made the vessels the exclusive property of the American government. The Wilson-Lloyd George agreement with regard, to the vessels, it was added, ne evrhad been ratified. Under the terms of the agreement, it was explained, the United States was to pay to the Reparations Commission a certain amount above the value of the ships which was to he applied to the common reparations pool as an offset to claims by the Allies for ships lost 'during the war. The agreement was made in connection with the peace settlement and the view here is that, sine etht United States has not ratified the treaty, it has not ratified that agreement.

It was assumed here that the Pari reports were prompted by the fact that the valuation of German ships seized during the war by any power was again under discussion and that an agreement with Germany on that point had not been reached.

Miller, farm demonstration agent, certifies to have grown more wheat than any other boy of the county on two acres of Jand. "About sixteen years ago," said Col. Moore, "when there was a national inquiry as to why boys and girls did not want to stay oh the farm and much discussion fi.s to the besf means of keep ing them there, I suggested to folks in Mecklenburg county that, if the mother would give her daughter a drove of chickens for her own and the father would give his son a calf or a pig for hs own and encourage both to make the most of the gift, knowing it was their Own that they had property of their own, the problem of keeping boys and girls on the farms would be simplified. "I don't know exactly what result my suggestion had, but when I was out in the West last year and saw fields of wheat, some of them requiring: nearly two days to ride through, I thought what a pity we didn't grow more wheat in North Carolina. With that in mind and knowing we can grow wheat in this section.

I offered a $50 Liberty bond as a prize. "I myself grew 45 bushels of wheat to the acre out here northwest of Charlotte a few years ago, as John P. Hunter, Egbert Davidson, George Phifer and several others may remember." Wf It i i "4 TRANSFER OIL IiESERUs; Washington. June 2.
