TIMELY HINTS ON STORAGE
Missouri College Of Agriculture An
swers Numerous Inquiries Regarding
the Keeping Of Vegetables.

Numerous inquiries have been com
ing to the University Of Missouri Col
lege of Agriculture concerning home
storage OF cabbage as well as other
vegetables for winter use. 1t is sug-
gested that cabbage be pulled up with
the roots on, and where a cool moist
cellar is available, TRANSFORMING the
plants to the cellar, setting them close
together with the roots In a layer of
sand or soil ) or 6 inches deep. This
soil is to be kept moist and if the eel
Ter is kept cool enough the heads of
cabbage will remain in good condition
for some time. Where a large amount
of cabbage is to be stored, or where no
suitable cellar is available, pitting out
doors is advised.
A shallow trench is dug wide enough
to hold three or five heads of cabbage
alongside each other, and as long as
necessary to hold the bulk of cabbage
being stored. In this trench the cab.
bage with roots on is placed head
down. with the loose outer leaves
wrapped under the head as well as
possible. A second and perhaps a
third layer Of heads is placed In the
anne position, between the roots OF
the first layer. The whole bank is
then covered with moist earth. All
the D%rotrnding roots should he we'll
covered with soil.

ALLIES POUNDING
The TEUT0N LINES
BRITISH TROOPS KEEPING THE
ENEMY ON THE ALERT BY
CONSTANT ATTACKS.
italians Have Started Another Of
fensive Against Austrians Who Are
Fighting Desperately But With
Apparent Success.

London-The veil Of secrecy which
had hung over the operations along the
British front in Belgium and northern
France since the latter part of the
week still remained impenetrable on
Sunday SO far as the news offerings
of the British war office are con-
cerned. Since Friday nothing except
brief statements had reached the out
side world from Field Marshal Haig's
headquarters.
The Berlin official communication
of Sunday, characterizes the artillery
duel along the Belgian coast and
southwark to the Ypres-Comines canal
as severe" Berlin also indicates that
the British troops are keeping the
enemy on the alert by stabs at various
points from accommodating parties.
Meanwhile, the Italians have started
another big offensive against the
Austrians on the Isonzo front.
The Austrians, realizing the strategic
value of the Italian gain, have deliv-
cred extremely heavy counter-attacks,
but to no purpose.
Austrian Efforts Fail.
Daily the Italians continue their
aerial bOmbardments of Austrian posi-
tions with large quantities of ex-
plosives. The great fortress of Pola
again has received visitation and
enemy depots at Berie, near Nabrlsina,
northeast of Triest on the Gulf of
Triest, have been bombarded.
Keeping up their almost nightly at
tacks by air during the last week
German air raiders again visited the
london district and the Kent and Els
sex coasts Sunday night. Everywhere
the raiders dropped bombs. 1t is re-
ported that three of them were
brought down.
A stronghold has been obtained by
the British on Bagdad through the
capture from the Turks of the main
Ottoman position in the region OF
Ssemadie. The Ottoman genera
Ahmed Bey his staff and severa
thousand men were taken prisoner
and large quantity of guns and am
munition was captured.

BAN ON EXPORTS
TO Be TIGHTENED
SMUGGLING OF FOOD FROM
UNITED STATES THROUGH HoL-
LAND TO GERMANY REVEALED.
Appeals for Supplies Will Be Disre-
aarded Unless IroneIad Assurances
Are Given That Teutons Will in
No Way Profit.

Observation-Disclosures that large
quantities of fats and other large TN
ports from the United States are be-
ing struggled into Germany on
much larger scale than has been even
intimated before was brought to light
here on September 30.
As a result it was stated authorita-
lively that the ban on exports to Hol-
land and other northern heutrals
would be drawn even tighter than in
the past.
The attitude Of the United States
will be that she cannot afford to have
her supplies find their way into Ger
many to bolster up the strength of the
soldiers VINO shortly will be face to
face with American troops on the west
ern front.
The plea of Holland and other neu-
American exports will be disregarded
entirely unless ironclad assurances
are given that Germany will not pro-
fit in any way thereby.
Situation Serious.
1t was admitted here that the stu
alton is fraught with serious posi-
bilities and may result in a marked
change in the relations between this
country and the Netherlands. Holland
maintains that she cannot exist with
out certain exports from Germany and
that these exports cannot be gotten
unless she gives in return large per.
centage of the fats raised in her OWL
country, making it vitality necessary
that the deficit be supplied by i'm
ports from the United States.
Not only is it extremely unlikely
that further supplies of foodstuffs anC
fats will be allowed to reach Holland
but the ban will not be lifted on cat
tie feed. By this step Holland viii
be forced to slaughter a large per
centage of her herds and supplies o
fats to Germany necessarily will fal

This remarkable photograph was
taken inside the German lines from
the airplane of an aviator who made
raid on 4 great boche AMMUNITION
depot. The daring aviator, starting
out on the apparently reckless ven
ture of getting by the German lines
and successfully bombing the Teuton
stores of munitions, flew to q point
above the depot and dropped quanti-
ties Of incendlary bombs while the
Germans kept firing a terrific fusillade
at him. Despite the danger, he kept
at his task and earned his reward
when he saw the munitiOn storehouse
burst into flames. The smoke from
the burning depot can be seen ascend

Her Choice.

Hazel was at loss to make a choice
between two young sprouts in her gar
den of love. She desired a hardy
plant, one that would thrive in any soil
and under any conditions. No shadow
must prevent the sprout selected from
growing.
Every day could not have its full
allotment of sunshine. Which would
she choose? Either was pleasing to
the eye. Then came a day when the
wind blew hard-a draft from one end
of the country to the other.
One of the sprouts withered from
the hitting blast. The other thrtved
and grew as though it had been blessed
with continual sunshine. Now Hazel
is happy. Her choice has been made,

REGULATING COAL INDUSTRY.
Retailers Margin Limited as Result Of
Action of Fuel Administration.

Washington.-H A. Garfield, federal
fuel administrator, took three impOr-
tant steps in the regulation of the
coal industry on September 80.
The margin allowed retail dealers is
tentatively set at 80 per cent above
the margin they maintained in 1915. In
no case will this margin-the differ.
ence between the cost of coal to the
dealer at his yard and the price he
charges the public-be greater than
the margin of this July.
The price of anthracite pea coal at
the Pennsylvania is cut 60 cents a
ton.
The classification of coal from the
small far western fields and the
prices permitted are announced for
the first time. They range from 81 a
