UNUSUALLY LARGE CROP OF
FRUIT THROUGHOUT GERMANY

Berlin, Dec. 3.-LThe unusually
large crop of fruit throughout Ger
many this fall has made unneces
the existence of conservation or
ganization known as the War Com
mittec of the Fruit Manufacturing
Industry" This, composed Of manu-
facturers of preserves and marme-
ladies', was formed when 1t was
feared that large quantities of fruit
would go to waste unless some step
was taken to make it into substitutes
for butter and fat.
Individual manufacturers all over
Germany have taken the init
themselves, however. and report that
because of the good season they have
produced twice and in some cases
three times as much marmelade as
usual. Virtually all the rest of the
crop not SO used has been eaten as
fresh fruit No less than 200 Ger
man cities have imported carloads of
apples, pears and the like for their
populations. Germany not only has
eaten an unprecedented amount of
fruit this season, but has also rec
ord amount Of preserved fruit on
hand for future needs.

JAPAN FURNISHED LONDON
WITH CHRISTMAS TOYS
(By Associateo Press. }

London, Dec. Japan has
helped out the. English. Christmas
shopping season by providing the
bazaars with enough toys to supply
the war deficit. Before the war,
Germany controlled almost the en-
tire British toy trade. English toy
industries have since started up, but
could not fill all of the orders from
the shops. Then an importing firm
sent samples of German toys to ia
pan. In some ways the Japanese out
put has exceeded expectations. The
new Japanese toys include clock
work animals, such as jumping dogs
and horses. cheap speaking dolls,
and limitation skin animals. While
not musical people in the European
sense, the japanese also manufac-
ture toy musical instruments.

OUT OF GERMANY

London, Dec. Fear that horse
flesh shipped to Rotterdam might
find lis way as food into Germany
resulted in a $50 fine being imposed
on a horsefiesh dealer at Hull this
week The defendant had done busi-
ness with a horse butcher in Rottfr-
dam for six years. But he had ex-
acted no bond from the Rotterdam
man to make sure that the meat
would not reach Germany. For this
lack of precaution he was fined. The
butcher testified that the war had
made no difference In the price oil

paid according to the condition in
which the meat arrived. His last
shipment consisted of twelve car

KING FERDINAND MOST
TALKED OF MAN IN HUNGARY

Budapest, Hungary, Dec. q
King Ferdinand Of Bulgaria has
been by all odds the mosttalked-of
figure in the public eye of Hungary
since he took the step which arrayed
his country on the side of the Ger
manic allies. Many columns of
newspaper space have been devoted
to descriptions and anecdotes of the
popular monarch, who appeals espec-
tally to the Hugranian heart because
of his long and close connection with
Hungarian affairs.
1T il remarked particularly that
Ferdinand, once the embodiment of
the autocratic ruler, has of late
years shown more and more of demo-
cratic tendencies, until now with
out in any way derogating his royal
dignity and the majesty Of his ap-
pearance, he moves about among all
classes and ranks in the attitude OF
brother rather than that OF a
king /" There is said to be a great
enthusiasm for him among his sol
diers, and he Is constantly seen with
the troops, even as far as the ex-
tremc firing line, encouraging them
and appealing to them frequently
with words of recoenition.
Since Ferdinand entered on the
war he has received innumerablt
messages congratulating him on hi'
action and on the bravery displayed
by his troops. kilograms and letters
have reached him from all parts o
Germany, Austria-Hungary and Tur
key. He reads all these message
personally, it is said, and takes grea
pleasure in them. when he re

Bulgarian armies are operating.
The strict court etiquette which has
been always a matter of great pride
in Sofia, has been relaxed, and the
king has requested his generals to
interrupt him at any time, even at
dinner. II there is urgent business
to be discussed. At headquarters the
king and his generals are said to
constitute lone big family" When
matters of war are not pressing he
talks with them of past times and or
his travels in all parts of Europe.
He Is especially proud of his popu-
larity in Turkey He was a great
friend OF the old Sultan, Abdul Ha-
mid. who on one occasion spoke OF
Ferdinand as 1.-The greatest man In
the Turkish empire save only the
sultan +"
The religious side OF the Bulgar-
ian monarch receives due attention
in the newspaper tributes. Ferdi-
, nanc never misses attending the
Orthodox mass on Sunday, but ne Is
tolerant in his religious views and
the Orthodox and Catholic clergy
receive like treatment in his armies.

EUROPEAN NEWS AND VIEWS

London, Dec. 3.-The London
shops have begun to prepare for
Christmas but the wares displayed
are very different from those shown
in times of peace. The children are
remembered, of course, but more at
tention has been paid to the men
IN the trenches. Everything con-
ceivable that would make soldier
happy on Christmas day is on dis
play. 1t is easy to see to whom the
shopkcepers are looking for their
holiday profits this year.
Winter has arrived in the Vosges
Mountains where the French and
German lines run close together and
already there are stories of keen suf-
fering among the men, although un-
usual precautions have been taken
to make them comfortable. Winter
comes very early in the Vosges,
though they are not like the Alps in
having snow-capped peaks. When
the snow gets very heavy it is i'm
possible for the men to fight. All
that they can do Is to keep their
trenches clear and themselves warm
| in their dugouts. Nearly all the
troopa in the Vosges are Alpine
hunters and they are used as spies
to guard against surprise attacks.
NO one who is willing to talk
seems to know exactly what Gen.
Kitchener has accomplished by his
trip to the near East, but 1t Is GER
tain that better spirit seems to
exist among the men at the front.
There are rumors that Kitchener
will not return to the front immedi-
ately but will devote much of his
time to the reorganization of the
British troops for spring campaign.
He insists that the war will not end
under three years.
L. is reported that Eleutherios
Venizelos, the Greek ex-premier,
made profound impression upon
Gen. Kitchener. Venibelos. by the
way, is said not to be Greek but
a Ccctan. In a sense he is like Dav-
i'd Lloyd George of England, man
from the outside of the usual sphere
of ofIlcialdom, who has so impressed
, his abilities and vii! on the country
that ne has been made leader Z.
There are those who predict that
higher honors than he has yet re-
, ceived await Venizelos, just as 1t Is
I believed that the prime ministershir
