GERMANY PREPARED
 FOB HONG WAR


 New York World staff correspond. ent after thorough investigation of Germany makes the following conclu. sions In two page article:
 ]. Report that Germany is on the point of starvation is absolutely false There is ample supply not only Go feed monster army which Germany has placed in the field but also enough to care for populace.
 9. There are on hand today enough foodstufs to last at least one year, if not IS months.
 8 An absolutely effective blockade has not been established against Ger man ports and foodstuiis and other materials are being brought into Ger. many from outside sources.
 {. There is no scarcity of flour or bread On the contrary. there is enough on hand of the former so that the German government will not be compelled to draw upon the products of the crop of 1915 until next year if then.
 5. Even if the crop of 1915 should turn out to be poor one. 1t would still be greater than the crop of an average year. because since Aug. l. 1914, more land has been cultivated for agricultural purposes than ever be- fore
 6. There is enough meat on hand To last for an indefinite period.
 7 Germany today is practically self-supporting
 8. Financial conditions of the country are such that it will be long time before the war chest can be emp tied.
 g. Throughout Germany proper there arc scarcely any indications that outside of her domain war is raging
 10 Germany win fight to the last man if necessary.
 h. The feeling against Americans in Germany is most bitter, because American arms and ammunitions are supplied by American firms to the ale lies.
 12 Every man. woman and child in Germany firmly believes that Germany will come out victorious in this great struggle against her opponents

WISDOM IN STUDYING NATURE
Good Old Mother Invariably Willing
TO Give Assistance to Indus
trious Mankind.

II Is supposed the moisture In the
earth must have an influence upon the
atmosphere, and especially upon the.
moisture in our air. and there must
be some power or hidden force that
draws more moisture to the surface
when there is an approaching condi'
ton which is apt to produce precipita-
ton.
In some mountainous sections the
sudden increase in streams of water
IS more noticeable, and miners who
are searching for gold and other valu'
able minerals frequently discover rich
deposits by watching streams that
have become dry, until a sudden gush
Of water brings to the surface some
particles OF the valuable metal they
are looking for. indicating rich de-
posits.
Nature quite frequently assists in
dustrious mankind in finding the
: things sought after. and unless nature
is carefully studied we are apt to over.
look some very important leads along
the paths we are traversing in search
of the better things of this wonderful
old world. Philadelphia National

women quickly act instantly, and eff.
f~ectually achieve results that slower

OF attempting.
This was illustrated anew in tho
exploit Of Mrs. Edison in rescuing the
inventors papers and records. To
her alone, among all the throng lend.
ing willing hands, did it occur that the
contents of the wizards laboratory
were far more valuable than the
