sweet juice pressed out by rock maple

buckets and filtered into cool. glazed
stone jars. then, indeed, does this mod
ern cider deserve the name Of the nee
tar Of the gods made real"
Four years ago Taylor Grimes, q mer-
chant on Fourteenth street, at Thomas
Circle, desiring some fresh, sweet apple
Juice for his own use, and being unable
to obtain it, made few quarts in a little
hand press with such success that last
year he found it necessary to make near
ly 1000 gallons to supply the demands Of
the cider-loving public.
Mr.. Grimes has found 1t necessary to
install a specially constructed. electric
hydraulic press, besides planting two
new apple orchards to supply fruit for
future seasons.
Every gallon Of Arcadian Sweet Apple
Juice is made in a big show window in
full view Of the public that each stage
of the manufacture may be seen. Big
crowds of office folk gather daily on their
cider making.

Col. Bryan Takes New
Fling at Newspapers

San Francisco, July Passage OF
a law to compel editors to show their
financial interest in policies they adVo-
cate was recommended by Wllllam
Jennings Bryan in an address before
the International Peace Congress at
the Panama-P Pacific Exposition.
"It seems reasonable to suppose,
Mr. Bryan said, that the signing of
editorials and news reports Wo@id
contribute both to accuracy and to the
reputation of writer's. 1t is one of the
injustices of the present system that
the men who furnish the literary
ability, the editorial writers and news
paper correspondents often live in
obscurity while the corporations from
which they draw pay reap an unfair
profit from their genius"
The tendency toward independent
newspapers Mr. Bryan deplored.
The man who thinks he can write
on public questt MS Clthout bias, he
said, sis more apt to deceive himself
than those who read what he says"
He suggested that independent
newspapers become bipartisan
and present articles signed by repre-.
sentatives of both sides of politica
questions.
Experience in the State Department
Mr.. Bryan said, had convinced hin
that the public welfare would be bene'
flied by q law compelling editors tt
tell what pecuniary interest they hae
| in governmental policies they adVo
Gated so the public might know wha
weight their editorials deserved.

Petrograd Says Teuton

been inflicted on the Austro-Hun-
garians near Krasnik, in Southern Po-
land, where the invaders are threaten
ing one of the most important rail-
road connections at Warsaw This
claim directly contradicts the Vienna
official report which states that the
Russians have suffered a defeat in this
section. Otherwise the Russian and
Austro- German reports agree that
quiet prevails along the remainder OF
the eastern front where for the first
time in several weeks the Austro- Ger
man armies have ceased to win daily

Pennsylvania's Output
of Petroleum Increases

Washington, D. c., July THE out
put of petroleum in Pennsylvania in
1914, which amounted to S,17O,S35
barrels. registered an increase of 253,-
033 barrels over the States produc-
ton in 1913, according to statement
Just made public by the United States
Geological Survey in cooperation with
the Pennsylvania Topographic and
Geologic Survey Commission.
This notable increase, coming from
State whose oil production prior to
1918 has shown fairly steady decline
of or per cent. a year for Ia years
or more, is worthy of especial notice,
for it was accomplished without the
discovery of new pools of consequence
within the productive area. 1t repre-
sents, rather, the intensive and eff
cient development of an area in which
the productive limits have long beer
fairly well defined.
