Germany's Starved Soil.

PRUSSIA is coming to potato diet, in
creasing her wheatless days to embrace
nearly all the week. The other day
serious discussion was on in the Prussian
diet committee, when Herr Hoesch, a
conservative member and an authority
upon matters pertaining to Germany's
food supply, said that every effort must
be put forth to increase the production
of potatoes, as the grain supply could
not be materially increased either during
the war or for some time thereafter.
GAS temporary causes contributing to
the grain shortage were mentioned the
lack of draft animals, of labor, and of
fuel But most significant was the &C
Ynowledgement that Germany lacks ar
tificial fertilizers. In this connection it
will be remembered that not long ago
prominent German statesmen were as
surfing their countrymen that France,
England and America could not prolong
the war because their agricultural re-
sources could not be maintained without
commercial fertilizers, the principal
sources of which were in Germany
"The Germans hoped to be able to i'm
poverish the rest of the world by with
holding the products of their potash mine,
supposed to be the only source of that
mineral in the world. But they over
looked the fact that they also were de-
pendent upon outsiders for the nitrates
and the phosphates which are necessary
to the making of artificial fertilizers
For time they were able to make shift
They imported and stored immense guam
titles of phosphate from the United
States. They put in extensive plants for
making nitrogen from the atmosphere
But the one supply played out and the
other was difficult because of shortage of
labor and fuel; so now Germany is suffer-
ing the penalty she tried to impose upon
her neighbors. THE Detroit News.

A MUCH NEEDED COMMITTEE.

We have now National Committee of
Patriotic Societies. This committee has
been organized to exercise paternal con-
troll over some AZ other patriotic COM
mittees which have been interfering with
each others business and in many in
stances duplicating each others efforts.
If this new committee succeeds in con-
trolling and systemizing the patriotic
work which is being done, we hope that
to this same committee will be given the
work of controlling and systemizing the
hodge-podge of effort which has for seven
months hampered and hindered the build
ing of ships, the making of rifles, the
construction of aircraft and several other
needed things

to agree with me. do hope you can
tell me something that will cure me
OF this gas.
Answer-You are putting more into
your stomach than your digestive
glands are able to handle. Why not
reduce the quantity of milk and gra-
ham bread that you are eating by one
half and then observe il you are trou-
bled with as much gas as before. If
you are, why not adopt a complete fast
for two or three days, and start the
fast by good two ounce dose Of castor
oil. so that your digestive apparatus is
thoroughly cleaned out. Nature Will
do lot for you If you do not continu-
ally overload your digestive apparatus.
and so long as you have gas you can
rest assured that Nature is being
over worked, and the best way you
can obtain relief is to do a little OK
perimenting with yourself. and see
whether or not the starch contained
in the graham bread is not the cause
of your trouble for starch is one OF
the biggest gas manufacturing foods
that we possess.

policy for the United states were laid
before the senate sub committee on
universal service today by two of the
governments military officers, Cap
tain George V. H. Mosely of the gen.
eral staff of the army and Major Will
lam G. Harlee of the marine corps.
Major Herlee disapproved of all uni
versal service proposals and suggested
that no enlistments be required and
that the men trained annually be per-
mitted to leave the service at will
He suggested that minimum monthly
pay of $50 be provided and all but a
small sum be held back until the
training period has been completed.
DR.. Lucien Howe of Buffalo, presi-
dent of the American Medical associa-
ton. told the committee that military

Hospital records show that every
time you cut a corn you invite lock1aw
or blood poison, which is needless, says
a Cincinnati authority, who tells you
that a quarter ounce Of drug called
freezonc can be obtained at little cost
from the drug store but Is sufficient
to rid ones feet of every hard or soft
corn or callous.
You simply apply few drops Of
freezone on tender. aching corn and
soreness is instantly relieved. Shortly
the entire corn can be lifted out, root
and all, without pain.
This drug is sticky but dries at once
and is claimed to just shrivel up any
corn without inflaming or even irri.

THE WAY GLANDS WORK

A good example of now the internal
gland chemicals work Is seen in the
instance Of n mother after childbirth.
Her breasts begin to enlarge. Finally
the breast glands become stimulated
from within and secrete milk. After
a while, when the stimulation is re-
moved, the milk stops flowing and the
breast shrinks.
Another instance is in the goiter of
the neck. This is q case where GER
tain body glands are not screting suf-
ficient chemicals to check the ten
dency of the goiter to enlarge.
There are number of special
glands in the liver. pancreas and in
several other body areas whose bust
ness it Is to secrete sufficient chem
icals to act on the sugar and starch
eaten in your foods, and turn them
into nourishment When any group
falls down on it's job, trouble ensues,
sugar appears and the diabetes symp-
toms begin. Your doctor must give
you diet, and must prescribe for your
daily needs. He Is on the ground.
If diabetes develops place yourself
in frame of mind where you are go
ing to look your future difficulties
squarely in the face. Then so adjust
yourself that you will be giving your
body and your mind the best tonics
God ever gave to n human being
