VINEGAR KILLS THE GERMS
Fest of Reasons Why the Condiment
Should Always Be Used Liber-
ally on Salads.

Drs. Loir and Legagneux OF Paris
have been testing vinegar as a de-
stroyer of the germs of typhoid fever
That they are killed by a mixture OF
wine and water in equal parts has
long been known. These investiga-
tors prove now that twenty germs OF
vinegar to a liter of water kill the
typhoid bacillus in an hour and five
minutes.
From this" writes the Paris cor
respondent of the Lancet, "a practical
inference may be drawn concerning
salads. After washing the salad as
usual, detaching each leaf, it should
be put into water calculated with ten
grams of vinegar to the liter and re-
main immersed in this liquid for
about an hour and a quarter. All
vegetables ordinarily eaten uncooked
may be subjected without any incon-
venience to the same process"
A liter is equivalent to about a
quart and ten grams are equivalent to
about a third of an ounce. So, if let
tuce or other greens for salad be
placed in water to which about one
third of an ounce of vinegar has been
added and be left for about an hour
and a quarter, all danger of typhoid
fever will be removed.

SEVEN PERSONS KILLED
IN RAILROAD WRECK
Accidents Caused by CIoudburst In

La Crosse, Wis, June 8.-Seven
persons were killed and several miles

wrecks resulting from a cloudburst
which circled La Crosse on Saturday
night.

Engineer Taber was running his
train at high speed through a blind

see the bridge had been washed out
until he applied his air, as the engine
plunged into the raging torrent. Luck
lily the brakes held the train, but the
engine, baggage car and mail car were
submerged.
Bodies of the engineer and fireman
were recovered in the morning by
divers, who went into the twenty feet

CARE IN SELECTING MUTTON

Consequently great care should pc eA-

time should be given to the STUDY Oh
quality.
In buying mutton Cor lamb care
shonld be taken to see that the rat is
clear. hard and white, as mutton Win
soft or yellow fat indicates too long d
stav in cold storage. 1t might appear
that a great quantity of fat on mutton
signifies waste; but the lean part Is
much jucier and more tender wnen
this is the case, so the wise housewife
makes purchases with this in view.
The leg has the least fat in proper
ton to weight. Next comes the shoui-

deep red.
Lamb is good to eat when one year
old and is much more digestible than
other immature meat, such as veal or
Young pork. The wise houseWlIe
knows the value of nutrition, SO she
will hesitate about buying lamb mere

PLAN TO
BUY ARMS PLANTS
MCAdoo Gives Cabinet Facts of
Teuton Efforts.
COURT ACTION is LIMITED
Attorney General to Contend Sale OF
American War Supply Factories
PeriIs Public WeIfare-Great
Industries Named.

Washington, June 10.-President
Wilson and his cabinet considered the
known fact that German interests, re-
ported backed by the German govern
ment are negotiating for the purchase
of the great gun and munitions-ofwar
plants in this country.
Secretary McAdoo of the treasury
laid the matter before the cabinet. He
lad information from secret service
agents of the government, who have
been following these German activities
for several weeks.
The plants for which negotiations
are on include that of Charles M.
Schwab at Bethlehem, Pa, the Rem
ingtOn Small Arms works at Hartford,
Conn, and the Cramp works at Phila-
delphia, which it is said Mr.. Schwab
is about to acquire; the Metallic Cart
ridge company, the Remington COM
pany and other munitions and small
arms works.
Included in the Schwab plant hold
tngs are the Fore River Shipbuilding
company. Massachusetts, and the
Union Iron works, San Francisco,
where it is reported parts of subma-
rines are being made for English con-
tract shipments being made through
Canada.
This new move of the Germans in
wolves the outlay of hundreds of mil
lions, a gigantic financial operation in
the face of war needs and conditions.
1t is one of the most sensational de-
velopments of the European conflict in
connection with the United States. It's
consummation inevitably would lead
this country into serious disagreement
if not conflict with Great Britain and
her allies.
The latter will demand the fulfill
ment of their contracts with these con-
Germs. The German move is to prevent
this delivery of munitions of war. With
the consummation of the purchases the
German owners could refuse to fill the
contracts. They will not fear suits
for broken contracts.
The whole matter is fraught with
such possibilities of danger to this
country that Attorney General Greg
DRY and the experts of the department
of justice have taken up the question
with view of interposing legal OBJ
stacles. 1t may become necessary, it
was suggested, to prevent such sale
on the ground of public welfare, be-
cause of strained relations with Ger
many.
The days report of Secretary Nc
Adoo stirred the cabinet as deeply al
most as the resignation of Secretary
Bryan. Complete reports were asked
and the secret service arm of the gov
eminent will be required to furnish
Immediately more complete and de-
tailed information.
