RHUBARB PIE

The food value of rhubarb is very
small, not one-fourth of its solid mat
ter being nutritive.
Two per cent of this solid matter is
sugar. 1t also contains a small per
cent of oxalic acid, and to some sys-
TENS is an irritant poison.
One cup of shortening, one-half
teaspoon of sugar, one even teaspoon
of salt, three cups of flour. Put all
in bowl and chop until crumbs make
hole in center. Turn in one-half cup
of ice water Mix all together with
knife. Lift one-third of dough out
onto slightly Toured board. Roll
thin and line pie pan.
Chop one and one-half cups of rhu-
barb, not fine; add one and one-half
cups of sugar; two teaspoons of flour,
pinch of salt and the yolk of one egg.
Stir together and put in crust. Put
on top crust and bake in quick oven

London. Sept. O. $3.50 y. m.-The al

vantage according to French official
reports, in what can only be the pre-
llminares of great battle extending
from MeauX, northeast of Paris, to
the fortress on Nerdun, about 200
miles further east.
The Germans who have brought up
reinforcements are striking at the al
all and Vitry Lee Francois, a front of
from fifty to sixty miles but each
time they have been driven back.
This is not surprising to military men,
as the Germans have been compelled to

VERMONTER RETURNS
FROM THE WAR ZONE

Remington, Sept. 9-Judge F. l.. Bates,
who left here late in June the guest of
Mr. and Mrs. Edward r. Everett, on
European trip, returned home this
morning. 1t was the intention OF the
party to make an automobile trip through
central Europe during the summer with
headquarters at the Everett residence at
Nevey. Swltzerland The war interfered
with the tour and Judge Bates did not
leave Switzerland until he started on his
return journey to America.
r'he only hardship experienced was
between Nevey and Paris. Ordinarily the
trip can he made In - hours but two
nights and day We're consumed, The
trains were packed with refugees, most
ly Americans who We're caught In Ger
many by the outbreak of hostilties Some
of their experiences as reported to Judge
Bates We're tIagically amusing. The wife
Of an American physician told how she
was engaged In the car In writing out
a recipe for German hrnad, as she did
not wish to trust her memory until she
was out of the country when she was
arrested by German policemen and kept
in iai for half "A day before she sue
ceedcd In explaining tNat she was not a
SPY.
Another American told how he had
purchased a bag of popcorn, eaten the
contents and then exploded the bag by
filing it with air He was taken from
the car and accused Of exploding a bomb
After being under arrest for some time
he induced his guards to petmit him t.
secure another paper bag and demonstrate
that the explosion was harmless.

ADVANTAGE STILL
WITH THE ALLIES

Itself, while on the extreme left the
French sixth army. advancing from Paris
along the Ourcq river, have had further
successes and are threatening General
Kluck's communications
In the east the Germans so far have
failed in their attempts to break across
the rivers and through the hills of Ar
gonne between y-le-Francois and
Nerdun on the right wing of the allies.
Again, according to the French reports
there has been no action against the
Vosees and Alsace the situation remains
unchanged.
All this favorable news has cheered
the allies. but military critics warn the
public that the battle has not yet been
won. and that there probably will be a
week or more Of fighting before a
decisive result Is attained either way.
There Is a possibility that the Germans
are trying to draw the allies into an at
tack upon the high ground that lies be-
tween Marno ard the Aisne, about
Rheims. and while it is believed that some
Of the edge has been taken off the Ger
man defense, 1t is not at all probable
that it has all been removed.
General Joffrc. the French commander
in-chief. however, has won some points
He has secured the time he required, Is In

concentration so that he is now believed

ers who have hewed their way from Mons

this second army is likely to hasten Cen

There Is still a pause in the operations
In East Prussia, doubtless due to a pau

has always had difficulty in Transforming

India alone is sending 7oOD troops,

called since Field Marshal Kitchener re-
organized the Indian army. They include
the army OF occupation and the native
forces. The latter are to he commanded
by their princes and chiefs.
Besides this India is to pay the cost
of Transporting her troops to Europe and
the Indian princes are sending really
fabulous gifts to the war funds being
raised in their own country and England
The Dominions and tho colonies have
placed their ships, men and money at
the disposal of the home government so
that the whole forces of the empire have
been recruited against her enemy.
The official bureau has issued denial
of the report that Dominion troops nave
arrived, ana while no statement has been
issued regarding the movements OF the
Indian contingent except that some OF
them left India several weoks ago the
| opinion is general here that either they
have Joined General French's force or
are about to do So
The report that a great Russian force
had gone to Join the allies in France
seems to have risen from the fact that
Russian reservists from England, the
United States and other countries who
could not get to their own country at
the desire of Emperor Nicholas Joined
the French army.
In tho United Kingdom recruiting
continues. Men are joining the col
ors by thousands all over the country

PACKERS CONTROL
Ar GEN NT|NE BEEF,
It IS TESTIFIED
Every Pound of Meat from So.
American Republic Must
Now Be Bought from
American Packers.

New York. Sept. 9.-Beef packers of the
United States are now in absolute control
of the Argentine output of beef, thus de-
stroying the value of Argentine beef as &
competitive check on the price of native
beef. according to testimony given to-day
at the inquiry into the advance in the
price of living necessities before Chief
Magistrate McAdoo. Jacob Bloch. mem
kets in this city asserted that every pound
Of beef from Argentina must now be
bought from the American packers.
As an instance of how this control In
nuenced the price, the witness stated that
ct one time beef hearts could be bought
for % cents each. When the American
packers obtained control of the ArEen-
tine output, he continued. beef hearts
We're put into cold storage. thus dimin-
shing the supply. so that to-day the
cost of these hearts is about $3.50 each.
SMALL DEALERS AT THEIR MERCY
The packers have arranged the terri
tory outside New York city 50 that the
small dealers are at their mercy, Mr..
Bloch testified. In small town incapa-
BILE of supporting more than one good
slHeu Establishment, one packing con-
| Germ is located and the butchers are
forced to buy from that one packer. In
large places the business Is divided,
Asked to explain the cause of the pres
ent shortage of beef. the witness said a
shortage had existed for 13 years. At
that time he said the supply of cattle
! IN this country fell short of the demand
| by 16oO00O and the shortage was grow
ing more pronounced.
REMEDIES PROPOSED
| As remedies for the present conditions

An export duty should be placed or
