WA z TINE PRICES
or FOOD EXPECTED
In Event Of a General War in
Europe Say Agricultural
Department Officials.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. g.
War time" food prices may be ex-
pected II Europe is plunged into a
general war, Department OF Agricul-
ture officials declared today. The de-
mand from abroad may. send prices
soaring to such prohibitive heights
that 1t has been suggested that it may
be necessary to declare an embargo
on the expectation of food stuffs from
the United States.
An embargo would be the last re-
sort to keep consumers in the United
States from actual starvation and
would require special action by the
president with sanction of Congress,
either by prohibition law or prohihi-
tive export tariffs on food.
1t is believed, however that the
inadequacy of the United States mer-
chant marine, and the fact that for
eign commerce would be legitimate
war prey for the combating nations,
would prove an obstacle sufficiently
effective to expectation to make an
embargo unnecessary.
The United States will be expected
to feed Europe If a general war en-
sues. This country stands ready to
export surplus this year of 100000
600 bushels Of wheat, the extraordi-
nary crop this year, making this rec
ord breaking expectation possible.
Last year the United States exported
91,O00,000 bushels of wheat, and the
total value of the grain products ex-
ported was $210,000,0O0. If wheat
should happen to reach 81, 30 bushel
as some exporters are beginning to
predict, the value OF the wheat exports
alone would be close to half billion
dollars.
Beef. already at record breaking
prices, may advance to prices entirely
out OF reach OF the average consumer,
the Bureau of Statistics asserts. Last
year meat and packing house product
shipped out Of the country were worth
1852. 100000. Beef now is scarcer
than ever before in this country, and
with the additional demand created by
the European war 1t will become a
luxury instead of food, the experts
predict.
The last time the United States was
called upon to feed Europe while II
fought, was in 1918, during the
Franco-German war. This country
shipped nearly a third of It's wheat
crop and received as high as SLAB for
1t. This price has been surpassed
only once. and that was In the Civil
war, when the top price of $3.50 a
bushel was reached.
TT is true that European war
would benefit the United States some,"
said an official of the Bureau of Sta
tistics, "but the trouble is. that the
benefits would go into the pockets of
too few persons. Some of the farm
ers and dealers would get all the hene-
fits, and the average consumer would
be pretty hard hit by the advanced
prices.

FLAGMAN DIES
OF HIS INJURIES
Peter Brown, Struck by Freight
Train at Tunnel, Succumbs
in a Hospital.

Peter Brown, aged % years, of
Lumberport, an employee of the Bal
tfmore and Ohio Railroad Company,
died in a local hospital Sunday after
noon from injuries he received earlier
in the day when he was run down by
freight train at the east end of a
tunnel near Rinehart.
George Rooney, a foreman of the
railroad, had force of men making
some repairs in the tunnel and had
placed Brown at the east end Of the
tunnel to flag any trains that might
come that way. A few hours later a
man came into the tunnel and told
Mr.. Rooney that brakeman had been
run down by freight train. When
Mr.. Rooney investigated he found out
that it was Brown, his flagman, and
not brakeman
Brown was placed on the train,
brought to this city and rushed to a
hospital where he died a few hours
later. He was badly cut up and
mashed.
Little is known of how the accident
occurred as no one saw 1t, the first
knowledge Of 1t being when members
Of the train crew found Brown lying
in dying condition along side the
track. f,
No funeral arrangements have been
made as yet

THE WHOLE BODY
NEEDS PURE BLOOD

The bones, the muscles, and all the
organs Of the body depend for their
strength and tone and healthy action
on pure blood.
IF the blood is very impure, the
bones become diseased; the muscles
become enfeebled, the step loses its
elasticity, and there is inability to
perform the usual amount Of labor.
The skin loses its clearness, and
pimples, blotches and other eruptions
appear.
Hoods Sarsaparilla makes pure
blood. Its positively unequaled in

pepsia, loss Of appetite, that tired

BIG LOSS BY POTATO INSECTS

Unnecessary loss annually comes to
the potato crop, due to various insects
which attacks the vines. As these in
sects belong to the group of chewing
Insects, they can be readily controlled
by the application of arsenical poisons,
such as Paris Green and Arsenate Of
Lead. The latter is to be preferred,
for 1t sticks better and Is of more con-
slant strength. 1t occurs both in pow
der and paste form. and may be used
as dust or a liquid spray. 1t is a
good practice to add Arsenate of Lead
to the Bordeaux Mixture, when spray
ing potatoes, thus combining an insect
and a fungus killer. Among the in
sects of the potato, which will be con-
trolled by the above, are the Colorado
Potatoe Beetle, the old-fashioned Pc.
tato BEETLE, known as Blister Beetles,
and the Flea BEETLES. The Potato
Stalk Borer, occasionally attacks vines,
doing its injury to the inside of the
stalks. This can best be controlled bv
burning the infested vines, after dig.
