parts a few days before the machine
is to be used will help loosen up the
parts. All the kerosene should be
wiped off and the parts well oiled
before starting the machine. The
"Thn Binder Ifs" below will help in
adjusting the machine:
1. If the machine travels with a
jerky motion, the main drive is too
loose or it may be dry. Try a little
oil on it.
2. If the slats rip off the canvass,
the elevators are not square.
3. If the knotter hook is rusty
and rough, it will not work properly.
Polish it with a fine emory paper.
4. If the binder attachment is not
timed properly, it certainly will not
worn, home Dinaers are timed in as
many as five places.
5. If the knotter hook does not
turn far enough to close the fingers
on the twine, no knot will be tied.
Look at the knotter pinion. If it
is worn, replace it with a new one.
6. If the twine slips thru the cord
holder, the twine will be pulled out
before the knot is tied. Adjust the
cord holder spring. It should take
40 pounds to pull the twine from the
disk.
7. If the disk does not move far
enough, the knotter hook grasps
only one cord, hence a loose end
band.
S. If the needle is bent or out of
shape, there will be a loose end band.
The needle is malleable iron and
may be hammered back to shape.
9. If the twine is pulled from the
hook before the knot is tied, try the
knife, it may be dull.
10. If you wish the size of the
bundles do it with the bundle sizer
ppring, not the tension or sompress
spring. L. R. Snipes. County Exten

Bitter Talk
Eefers to European aNtions as 'Col
onies' Stirs Tempest Among
Berlin Americans.
Berlin, June 24. "We are neither
an English nor a French colony, but
to me it seems doubtful whether all
Europe is not in danger of becoming
a colony of those who were luckier
than we.
"That, at Paris, the colonies got
together to relieve one another's sit
uation by mutual concessions be
cause there certainly were no con
cessions forthcoming from the oth
er side is a fact which cannot be
removed from the history of the
Paris negotiations."
t Voicing a sentiment which no Eu
ropean statesman has hitherto open
ly and publicly dared to do. Dr. Gus
tive Stresemann, German foreign
minister, speaking in the reichstag
Monday, astounded everyone by his
brief but unmistakably bitter refer
ence to the United States.
Doesn't Name U. S.
He did not name the United States,
but he did not need to mention the .
name, since his implication in "those
luckier than we" was clear. Especial
ly astounding was his designation of
the powers that met at Paris to frame
the Young plan as "colonies."
His words apparently crystalize
the German government's apology to
the German people for the repar
ations settlement, which Nationalists
and prominent industrialists char
acterize as "unbearable, and certain
ly as unworkable as the Dawes plan."
The Nationalists have been attack
ing the Young plan on the ground it
makes Germany a colony of England
and France. Dr. Stresemann reports
the United States is to blame for the
situation, and that there is danger of
Europe's being placed at the mercy
of America. j
Creates Sensation. I
The German foreign minister's
words created a sensation in the im
portant American circles in Berlin.
An important American business
man, whose name I cannot disclose,
said Monday night:
"Such talk, which one hears all
over Europe and especially in cir
cles of the extremists, is unfortunate.
It gives credence to European re
ports that the nations of Europe
will eventually have to form a league
of debtor nations against the United
States.
"Certainly .such talk is unfortUD-,
ate when voiced publicly by a re
sponsible statesman. Does anyone in ,
Europe or Germany believe such ;
statements are likely to help the ;
flotation of the reparations bonds i
In the United States I
"The American people are not go- :
ing to throw money away in Europe
if they feel that Europe considers
itself being enslaved by America, and
therefore whatever comes from
America today is literally bondage to
be overthrown and dishonored to
morrow. "There is nothing to be gained by
attributing the position of America
to duck. If European natious had
Jcnown how to conduct their affairs
without restorting to the cruelest
war in history, they would not be
'out of luck' now. and Dr. Strese
mann and President Von Hindenburg
would not have to issue a manifesto
10 years after the peace treaty pro
testing against the sole war guilt."
