products by economy and efficiency
in purchasing and marketing them in
great quantities will directly benefit
the consumer to a degree that has
probably never before been reached
by any mercantile enterprise.

address as No. 1926 Winter street,
Philadelphia, yesterday. at Chesa-
peake City. Nd. where the large locks
of the Chesapeake and Delaware
Canal are located. He arrived here
three days ago in an automobile and
photographs of the Chesapeake and
Delaware Canal locks and some papers
were found on him.
Hc was taken to ElktOn, Cecil coun-
ty by Sheriff Barnes and lodged in
jail.
Krimmel was still under arrest at
noon. and no government officers had
been at the Jail to question him. one
of Sheriff Barnes deputies asserted.
Acting States Attorney Joshua
Clayton is investigating the case. and
has not fixed any time for a hearing
for Krimmel. MI Clayton desires to
satisfy himself whether Krimmel is
, lust a harmless itinerant photograph
er. or whether there is any plot in his
taking OF pictures Of the canal locks
and buildings nearby which with
some maps and diagrams were found
in his possession.
PHILADELPHIA. April 12.-George
o. Krimmel. arrested today at Chesa-
peake City, on suspicion of espionage

! years. His wife and son treated the
= matter lightly when apprised of the
! charge against him. They, said he Is
travelling Photographer and that he

months business trip by motor car.
District police, who know Krimmel
asserted. that he is loyal American
,, citizen.
Krimmel had intended to enlist in
the United States Army with his 2l-
/ year-old son George.
This information was given today
by the mans wife, who declared that
! Krimmers arrest as a German plOtteT
was ridiculous"
My husband was born in this
country forty-nine years ago, and HI
| has never been to Germany in his

they were quite young. but they have
been dead many years. Il was only

II was not until the discovery by Sir
Arthur Gerod, in ls4S. that the blood of
gouty patients contain ID uric acid in an
excessively large amount, that much
attention was paid to this subject.
Later scientific men learned that in
gout, also rheumatism, the kidneys do
not work properly to throw off the uric

UNCLE SAM BUYS HIS SEEDS
yhsse Sent by consressmen to Con-

the New York Sun says.
In the last year-foral, not fiscal
year-the department of agriculture
bought 9o54711a pounds Of vege-
table seed for $9s,52S.57. 1t may
DO said without fear of successful
contradiction that the odd half
pound was used with successful re-
suits. Flower seeds-you remember
the eschscholtzia and the gysophila
and the schizanthus that you get by
the mail--cost the government $19,-
52s.
lettuce was the big plunge in
vegetables; 1925 pounds of seed,
bought in California, cost $24,9S5.
Onion seed, also from California, ran
up to $15,149. The Rocky Ford
growers sold about 10000 bushels of
muskmelon seed to Uncle Sam at
about IA cents bushel. Most of
the beet seed came from England
and France. Connecticut and Michi-

WOOD PULP FIFTY YEARS OLD
= Century Ago When II Was
Made From Rags.

1t was just so years ago that the
FIRST wood pulp paper in the
United States was manufactured,
and it would be difficult to estimate
the benefit this has conferred upon
the world, for it was step in the
dissemination of knowledge, particu-
parly current news, just as was the
Invention of movable types and the
printing press, says the Portland
Oregonian.
1t will be remembered by many
still living with what care every rag
was saved to be converted into paper
and how the paper, after it had
served its purpose at the printers
was carefully put aside for wrapping
parcels. Those were days of auto
matically imposed thrift, which were
followed by disregard of economics
so widespread that already after
only half century we are confront
ed by prospect of serious shortage
of supply of the new raw material.
Just as the supply of rags in the
sixties would not have suffced fol
growing needs, so it appears thai
soon there will be enough wood pulE
to go around. But we have grown Sc
accustomed to finding substitutes
when we had to have tnein tlluc til,
world is not alarmed.
