SHORTAGE IN FOOD
MAY SHORTEN WAR
All Countries Including Neutral
Ones Will Suffer if DevaS-
tation and Lack of ProduC-
tion Keeps Up.
BY LAWRENCE ELSTON.

LONDON, Aug. 21.-A general food
shortage in Europe, not only in the
countries engaged in hostilities, but
throughout the neutral states as well,
may prove a powerful factor in bring
ing about an early termination OF the
war.
OF all the countries embroiled Eng
land is the best supplied, owing TO
the absence of invasion and the prac-
tically interrupted state Of her COM
merce with the United States, Can
ada and western Europe.
Although the German government
claims that the empire has food for
a year, this is doubted. Owing TO the
heavy drain of the war and the isola-
ton OF the country, IL is believed that
Germany cannot go year without the
greatest hardships being inflicted upon
her people.
There are millions of men in the
field under the flags OF Russia, Ger
many, Austria, England, France. Bel
GUM and Servia, and all this mighty
host must be fed, the drain coming
mainly from their own countries.
An idea OF conditions which must
naturally prevail throughout central
Europe is obtaining from the fact that
Holland. which is a neutral state. has
provisions for only sixteen days. The
minister of agriculture OF the Dutch
kingdom has called upon the people
TO exercise the utmost economy in the
use OF -four.
Although Austro-Hungary has fer
tile tracts under cultivation, the war
has called all the available able bodied
men away from agricultural pursuits
and only the women are left TO hserv-
est the crops.
There Is also a serious scarcity Of
meat and horse flesh Will be a luxury
in many quarters before long
South Bend news-times. (South Bend, Ind.) 1913-1938, 1914-08-21

II this is true, the Germans are like
ly TO hasten their attack but that Il
is untrue is made evident by the fact
that for several days the bulk Of their
fighting force has been apparently
lying passive along the Meuse.
Their cavalry has felt out the en-
emy's position along The Dinant-
Neufchateau line, but the main forces
are probably being disposed so that

about four ounces of ordinary liquid

Do this o-night and by morning
most if not all of your dandruff will
be gone, and three or four more APP
plications will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace Of it, no matter how much dam
druff you may have.
You will find, too. that all itching

once, and your hair will be fluffy, lus-
trous, glossy, silky and soft, and look
and feel a hundred times better.
If you want to preserve your hair,
