The big batileship Oregon, which Is
DIV safely within West India waters,
Is made a marvellous record from an
sgiueering point Of view. Aaer max

repairs 10 her machinery. This record
ssaii never TO have been equaled since
BE- building Of the first iron wGrship.
as United States baitleship Oregon is
te heaviest armOred vessel in the world,

on account Of the high price Of wheat
and the consequent rise in the price of
wheat Hour there Is a big demand from
the cities for rye -four, and many Of the
Tliler -four mills IN some sections Of the
safe are now running on rye exclusively.
tTobably more rye bread is now being
slen Than at any time during the past
thirty years, and II is 70 be said that il is
Just a. wholesome a. wheat bread, only
that 10 is not so white and light, but al
The S-me time a loaf goes much further
than wheat bread in satisfying hunger.

bone made rye bread Is something un-
known, but il used generally it would
probably be a boon and Blessing 70 many
lyspeptics whO unfortunately have been
living on food too rich for their stomachs-
Perhaps after all the war is blessing in

EelcOmed by horse dealers. An agent Of
he War Department has been selected to
visit Pennsylvania 70 buy horses for ths
artillery and cavalry. The arming o.
.Eo hundred thousand mentor that is
shat the combined Regular and Volun-
eer Army will number when fully re-
-ecrnited and ready for service-will

horses on Government account. Horses
Fil be wanted for the use Of the officers,
or the cavalry and the artillery, and for
he provision trains, and g the war 5e
fought horses will be killed
md disabled and have 10 be replaced.
lf course war Is a destroyer and will de-
troy other property beside horses. Just
or the present. however. the call for
lorses Is quite heavy and the result is a
decided stiifening in the price.
