Nile Mud, Rat Hair ,
Coat Of Roam Horse,
Is Italian Uniform

Correspondence of The Associated Prcss.)
Headquarters of the Italian Army,
Oct. 3-The uniform of the Italian
army is said to be both the ugliest
and the least visible of any worn i'll
Europe. Its wearer doesn't even
make shadow" said one visitor re-
Gently among the party of American
officials that accompanied Ambassa-
dor Thomas Nelson Page to the front
The color is officially described as
gray-green. An Englsfman tried to
convey his idea of it as follows:
Take some blue Nile mud, rub in
carefully two pounds of ship rat hair,
paint roam horse with the compo-
stion, and then you will understand
why the Austrians can't see the
Italian soldiers in broad daylight at
fifty yards"
The Italian army was among the
first to make science Of the ques-
ton of uniform colors. 1t did not Sc
lect, for instance, the horizon, col
ored uniform adopted more than a
year ago by the French, because,
while this is the least visible on roads

would no do we'll in the rains and
muds and among the trees Of the

No Rubber Nipples
On the Milk Bottles

Correspondence of The Associated Press)
Berlin, Nov. l0.-To make sure that
as a result of the rubber shortage
in Germany, infants will not have to
go without rubber nipples on the milk
bottle, the Bundesrat has ordered
that the entire available supply within
the empire, and all that are imported,
shall be turned over to a specially
created company that in turn is to
have charge of the equable distribu-
ton of this small, but necessary
article.
Mothers will in the future be able
to procure two nipples per child un-
der one year of age, on presenting
birth certificates to- prove the age Of
the children, and then will be able
to buy new nipples by turningsin the
old ones. A maximum price of IS
pfennigs per nipple has been set
for all that are made i'll Germany.

The wheat market was very weak at &c to

The demand for the lower grades Of hard
wheat was not very good, but the milling
demand for durum wheat was fairly active
at much lower prices.
The corn market was very dull and the
bulk of the receipts, which tctaied "a cars,
were carried over. The sales Of this cereal
were extremely light and at noon there had
been only five cars of corn reported sold,
cars Of No mixed going at Ole and ?
cars OF No. yellow selling at aih q 92c. The
sellers were not satisfied with the prices
offered, the buyers bidding from &c TO SC
lower on most of the samples.
The oats market WAS modestiy active,
but ruled from NC TO &c lower In sympa-
thy with wheat and corn.
The cash demand was pretty good at the
prevailing prices and the bulk OF the sam
Plies, which graded No. white, sold at save,
