About the Planets.

The albedo or rejecting power Of
the planets Is believed to give hint
as to their physical condition. In u
table prepared by Prof. H. N. Russell,
the albedo Of the moon Is given as
DOT; Mercury, O.O6; Venus, O.59;
Mars, 0.15; Jupiter, O56; Saturn, O.63 |;
Uranus, 0.63, and Neptune, ora. The
earth's albedo, measured from the
earthshine on the moon, has been
placed as high as OS0. though new
calculation Indicates O.49. The four
large planets have high albedo on ac-
count Of their clOud-laden atmosphere |;
that of Mercury, with practically no
atmosphere, is low.

FOOD CONTROL
NOW PROPOSED
British Government Considering
Drastic Steps OBJECT Soar
ing Prizes.

London, Nov. 19.--No other govern
ment action in Great Britain during
the war has commanded such imme-
date and almost unanimous support
as the decision to control food sup
plies and prices. Virtually the entire
press welcomes the scheme. Almost
the only criticism expressed is that
the authorities should have taken
charge of the nations food supply
long ago.
The difficulties in handling such a
vast and complicated problem in a
country unused to paternalistic meth
DDS are not underestimated.
Arrangements are being made be-
tween the board of trade and the
board of agriculture for controlling
the prices of stocks. The distribu-
ton of the most important commodi-
ties, corn, meat. and potatoes, is al
ready partly regulated. as is also
that of sugar.
The most probable appointment to
the position of food controller is con-
sidered to be Sir George SaItmarsh.
the governments chief adviror on
corn supplies, or Baron Davenport,
chairman of the port authorities Of
London.
One Of the troublesome features Of
the situation is how to equalize mat
ters between the rich and the poor.
On the theory of equality or sacri-
fee for ALL" which is a popular war
watchword, the newspapers are max
ing sensation of luxurious menus
in fashionable restaurants and hon.
es. The Limitation of restaurant
meals to three courses is to be dis
cussed Wednesday to devise econ
omy.
To the casual observer there are
no signs of food shortage. The var
iety and quality of eatables in the
shops and restaurants appear undi-
minished. but the big markets tell
a different tale. 1t Is still possible
to get good dinner or lunch in Lon
don cheaper than it could be obtain
ed in Ne WORK before the war.
The poorer housekeepers who buy
in small quantities feel the pinch.
since the general prices average near

TO TREAT SPRAINED ANKLE
Careful Examination Should First Be
Made to See II Any Bones
Are Broken.

The first step In the treatment Of
sprained ankle should be carefully
taken X-ray photograph, according to
DR.. S. Bernard Rosenzweig In the New
York Medical Journal, for the reason
that simple sprains without fractures
of the bones are rare. And the treat
ment Of break Is different from that
OF sprain.
The simple sprain Is treated with
movement and massage. The ankle Is
soaked for Is or 20 minutes In wa
fer as hot as can be borne. This
IS followed by massage and passive
movements, then alternate hot and cold
touches and a loose dressing of lead
and opium wash Is applied. This is
carried out twice day, and after
three days the patient Is made to move
his own ankle. This Is now strapped
for support and the patient Is advised
to walk about, wearing a high-laced
shoe and carrying a stick.
II bone Is broken, the ankle Is i'm
modified with heavy adhesive Dress
Ing or light plaster cast. At the end
of week, massage, baking and move
ment are given, and not until after this
Is the patient allowed to try to walk.

BELIEVE ALLIES
OPPOSE PEACE
Austrian Opinion Is That Any Move
by President Would Prove
Futile.

Vienna. Friday, Nov. II. via Lon
| don. Nov. 10.--Interest in the an
nouncement in Vienna that President
Wilson intends taking concrete ac-
ton in behalf of peace continues I'M
abated, though in many Austrian cir
cles the view is held that the atti-
tude of the entente power will render
Mr.. Wilson's good offices futile.
AS the matter stands certain gov
ernmental circles hold that little can
can be gained by declaring a road
mess to meet the entente on a peace
preliminary SO long as the entente
has failed to indicate that It would
be content with much less than
shown in the recent speeches made
in London. It is felt by Austrian
officials that the acceptance Of an in
Walton for such a conference with the
entente holding out for program
which Is little short of the total an
Inhalation Of the central powers and
their allies would be equal to ac-
knowledging that the central powers
were ready to secure peace on any
terms.
While President Wilson's good in
tentions are not in the least doubted,
1t is pointed out that the entire en-
ente powers would gain undue en-
couragement IL Austria Hungary
were to pit its own modest claims
seeking the dual monarchy's dismem-
berment.
There is no doubt in the minds
Of Austrians in position to know
that the central powers are ready
for negotiations, but nothing short
of the conditions outlined in the
foregoing would induce them in the
present military situations to join a
conference such as is understood
here to have been proposed by Pres
ident Wilson.
