TURKEY Will BE
SERVED PART OF
ARMY in FRANCE
Enough for One Hundred
Thousand Left Over From
the Thanksgiving Ship
ment-Buy From French.
BY ]. w. PEGLER.

With the American Armies In
France. Dec. 22.-Part of the Sammics
will have their Christmas turkey and
mince pie even IL the special Christmas
shipments of those products haven't
yet arrived.
The quarterma ster's department did
a careful job at figuring today and an
nounced there was just about enough
turkey and mince meat left over from
Thanksgiving to feed 100000 men. Who
the lucky hundred thousand will be
was an ll-absorbing topic of interest
today,
However. che auartermaster is en-
deavoring to@make up the deficiency by
purchases of delicacies from the
French. Such a plan will not reduce
the French food supply. because the
delicacies will be merely borrowed and
when the American supplies arrive
they will be turned over to the French.
MAY CABLE GREETINGS.
Headquarters reversed itself in a
ruling today. permitting Sammies TO
cable Christmas greetings home. The
rate. however, will be the regular COM
mercial one instead Of the special low
er one heretofore in effect and which
IL temporarily suspended.
One certain town in the American
zone," is to have an deliberately arrang-
ed Christmas. French women today
completed q Santa Claus suit in which
staff colonel will masquerade and
distribute gifts purchased by money
contributed by the Americans to about
so war waits. For the most part the
youngsters or orphans, refugees from
devastated regions.
Great quantities of mail continue to
pour into the training zone. The
Sammies are contentedly smoking real
American cigarettes and American to-
bacco in their pipes. There are a
number of excessively shiny checked
Americans attesting to the assidous
use Of Christmas razors.
TO SAFEGUARD MORALS.
General Pershing's orders to safe
guard the morals of his American
fighters as reported in yesterdays dis
patches is not an entirely new regula-
ton. Emphasis was laid today on the
fact that American military police fol
several months have been keeping
Sammies out of certain prohibited and
re tricted zones in several towns. The
| Ia test orders serve as forcible re.
minder to the men Of their command.
| er's determination to safeguard the
armys morals and sobriety against tho
misconduct Of the inevitable few, Ii
not held under restriction, might tain
the whole army.
Every effort is being made to locate
immoral resorts throughout the zone
especially at seaports, and all sucl
automatically are placed out of bounds
for soldiers. Full description of all re
sorts is posted on bulletin boards o
every units headquarters.
SNAPPED UNIFORMS.
It became known today that SOM
time ago number of American sol
diers "swapped" uniforms with SOM
Poilus and thus endeavored to deceiy
the military police guarding a certain
prohibited section. The guard say
through the scheme. Both the Sam
mics and Poilus were arrested an
punished.
Both chaplains and medical officer
arc gratified at the sweeping proyi
sions OF General Pershing's order
They make drunkenness promptly pun
ishable by commanders.

Diet, Exercise or Death !

An eminent medical authority writes
that most Of our city folks die of thick
cning Of the arteries or Of kidney dis
ease. The kidneys become clogged and
do not filter the poisons from the blood,
and one trouble follows another, high
blood pressure damages the heart, arteries
and kidneys. Usually its danger signals
are backache, pain here or there, swollen
feet or ankles, rheumatic twinges or
spots appearing before the eyes.
"The very best remedy is this: Eat
meat but once day, or not at all. Plenty
Of outdoor exercise, and drink pure
water frequently. Before meals take a
little Anuric, the great uric acid neu-
tralizer that is easily obtained at the
drug store. When you have dizziness,
chills or sweating, worry, or dragging
pains in back, try this wonderful enemy
70 uric acid, which DR.. Pierce Of Buffalo,
N. Y, discovered and named Anuric.
Anuric, more potent than ithia, dissolves
uric acid as hot water does sugar."

HOW TO PRESERVE SEED
FOR USE NEXT SEASON
By Webster.

Crops from home gardens now are be-
ing harvested in all parts of Washing
ton In connection with conservation of
the surplus crops for winter use H. NJ.
Cono1ly, demonstration agent for the
District of Columbia. has given ad-
vice regarding the elimination of wea-
wills from peas and beans kept for
seed.
THE seed must be treated before stor-
ing to control the weavil, he stated.
There are two ways to kill weavils in
a pan and place in an oven. The oven
should be heated to 14o Fahrenheit. but
not for long period. If the seed is to
be stored for food higher temperature
may be safely employed.
The other method is to treat the
seed by using carbon bisu}phide. Use
this material at ratio of one ounce to
100 pounds of seed. The bisulphide is
liquid which gives off a vapor heavier
than air. The seed to be treated should
be placed in an air-tight receptacle,
on top of the seed. Forty-eight hours
of fumigating will kill all the weevils.
After this the seed may be Well alreu
to free it from the bisulphide fumes.
Then the seed may be put into ven
tilated sacks or cans. II the seed is
placed in sacks the sa ckS may be sus-
pended by cords from the rafters of the
attic and thus placed cut of reach of
rats or mice. In using carbon bisulphide
all lights should be kept away and also
it is not desirable to breathe any of the
fumes. After using always air out the
rooms WE'LL.
