COURTESlES OF THE WAR AS
TOLD BY MAN At THE FRONT
Neither German Nor French Headquar'
tors Have Been Attacked From Air.

Although well within the striking
radius OF aircraft, neither the general
headquarters OF the German nor those
of the French army along the western
front ever have been subject to an
aerial attack
Some light has been thrown On this
mystery by a Belgian who recently
escaped to England from his home
near Charleroi. where the German
general headquarters is located. One
day he expressed his surprise that
these headquarters, frequently visited
by the kaiser and where more than a
thousand German officers are housed
In new buildings in conspicuous
group, never had been bombed. The
German officer to whom he expressed
his surprise shrugged his shoulders.
and. answering the question with an
other, said:
"Have you ever heard Of General
Joffre's headquarters being bombed p
The Belgian replied in the negative.
and the officer ended the conversation
by saying, "Well. that's the reason"
This immunity does not extend to
either divisional or corps headquar-
tiers, which frequently have been under
fire from the air.

GERMANY'S GOLD A FACTOR.
BY Otto Won Glassnapp.

BY Otto Won GiaSenapp.
[Acting president OF the Berlin Reichs-
bank.
I cannot tell how long the war Will
last. am sure. though. Germany will
win. At any rate. Germany will be
able to hold out.
Financially and economically our sit
uation is better than the enemy's. So
far there has been no difficulty In OBJ
tanning money for conducting the war.
and there will be no difficulty in the
future either.
The English sea warfare has been a
benefit In disguise to Germany. 1t
drove the entire German industry into
the fatherland's service. Germany now
stands on her own feet, independent
Of the outside world, thanks to Ger
man science and industry.
The gold reserve In the Reichsbank Is
now 2.OOO,393. 100000 marks. or over
], 100000 more than before the out
break OF the war.
This is much better than Frances
and England'S showing.

TEUTONS HAVE UPPER HAND.
BY Major Ernst Moraht.

military critic OF the Berliner Tageblatt
In the west the German armies In
rapid, triumphant advance, carried
their standards within fifty miles OF
Paris and have kept them flying there
since mid September. Almost all OF
Belgium and the northeastern depart
ments Of France have been occupied
by the troops Of Germany.
The west bank Of the VStula In
Poland has been cleared OF Russian
armies The Russian forces will be
destroyed or forced to fee deep into
the interior to the eastward.
The Germans have every reason at
the end OF the first year Of the war to
consider their sacrifices in blood and
treasure have been rewarded. We are
well prepared for continuance Of the
war. Our nation still possesses deter
mination to conquer and to make the
necessary sacrifices.

PRICES SHOW DECREASES TO
ALL BUT THE CONSUMER.
Vegetables Plentiful, but Figures Show
That Middlsmsn Get Profits.

An investigation Of produce market
conditions made by the New York Sun
shows that not in years have vegeta-
bles been so plentiful as now and so
cheap - for everybody but the con-
sumner.
Potatoes sell at 81 a barrel whole
sale, as against 1925 q barrel a year
ago. At retail they bring from 10 to
1211 cents quart, or at the rate OF
$3.50 and "a bushel and So and $40
barrel. Tomatoes sell at wholesale
for from Is to Is cents a crate and to
the housewife at the rate Of foC for
10 cents. Onions have been bringing
% cents a bushel wholesale, as com
pared with s. last year.
Commission men blame the retailers
for their failure to adjust prices to
the advantage OF the consumer. Mel
Their the consumer nor the farmer is
benefiting from the huge crops and low
wholesale prices. Between the 81 cents
barrel received by New Jersey pro-
ducers for potatoes and the rate Of $40
a barrel paid by small consumers lie
unusual possibilities of high finance.
1t shows that the net result Of sew
eral years OF agitation for cheaper
farm produce has been merely to make
matters worse for the housekeeper. II
also shows that all the farm to the
table movements have not accom-
pltshed their purpose.
The remedy for this inequality OF
produce prices has not yet been found
Whether a method OF distribution just
and equitable to all concerned can be
devised remains q problem.

Some lizard Times" Figures.

In a statement OF some OF the more
impressive of his findings, Professor
Holden reports that 20 per cent OF all
the tillable land in the United States
Is planted to corn every year, produc-
ing 2,700,OOOOO0 bushels, worth ST.
9OO,OOOOOO. In 1914. 105.000.OOO acres
were planted to corn In this country,
says the expert in demonstrating that
the expression Corn Is king" is more
than a figure OF speech.
Corn Is the universal CROP" is Pro-
lessor Holden's statement. In 1914
the worlds crop amounted to more
than 3.5OO,OO0.OOO bushels. grown on

since corn has steadily increased In

below this figure.
wherever corn is grown there you

Professor Holden continues. Corn Is
grown in every section OF the United
States. 1t was but a few years ago we

ENGLAND'S SACRIFICES IN WAR
Women Urged to Walk, Eat as Aoms

John Bull (meaning the men OF Eng
land having already been urged to go
on the water wagon for the remainder
OF the war. Mrs John Bull and Miss
Bull (meaning the women OF England)
are to be asked to sign pledge against
the use OF luxuries.
The suggestion for feminine absti-
hence has been made by the parliament
tary war savings committee. II. f..
Morgan, who Is assisting In the pledge
propaganda, has made some sugges-
lions which, If followed, will result In
self denial calculated to conserve
money, time, labor and health. Here
are few:
Wealthy WOmen.-DOn't use your
motorcars for private purposes. Devote
them to public uses and walk.
Young Men.-DOn't take your sweet
hearts to restaurants to dine. Eat at
home and save money.
Young WOmen.-Ignore the new fash
ions. Wear last years gowns until
they are no longer servtceable.
Chorus Girls.-Eschew Qf they know

can donate the fare saved to war relief
funds.
Cooks.-Abstain from extravaganza
In the kitchen. Foods heated over are
palatable.
Morgan explains that men can take
the pledge against extravaganza as
well. The trouble with Great Britain.
he says, is that half the income OF the
nation is held by 100000 persons,
while the other half goes to 100000.

Before the Russian retreat l hoped

unfortunately, lost that hope. now
ask, Will the war finish the next
year,
1t seems impossible 1t can last more
than two years when one thinks Of the
sufrerings Of the peoples involved, but
it seems equally impossible 1t can end
even next year. when one contemplates
the political and military situation OF
the belligerents.
1t Is impossible to fOresee the extent
Of the defeat Of the Germanic empires.

Always REQUIRES Much Care.

"COrn requires much greater care to
prevent deterioration than most other
crops, since 1t is comparatively new
crop, as we know 1t today, and it's
characteristics have not been SO thor
oughly fixed through centuries of
breeding, but for the same reason 1t is
also much more susceptible to i'm
provement by proper treatment.
"By intelligent selection and breed
ing corn has been improved In the last
few years far beyond our greatest ex-
pectations. Corn is yet in the plastic
stage Of its development. and for that
reason 1t adapts itself readily to new
conditions. responds quickly to good
treatment, and gives better returns for
the efforts put into 1t than any other
crop that grows.
poor seed is the greatest cause of
the poor yield Of corn.
mo other crop can replace corn, but
corn can readily take the place Of any
other grain crop"

Against submarines.
Plans for SIX big cruiser destroyers
authorized by the last congress nave

more comfortable for their crews.
Each destroyer will carry four triple
torpedo tubes. a main battery or four
