What the Experts of the Department
of Agriculture Say


of Agriculture Say
Suppose each one of the 2O,0O0,0 600
families of the United States were to
determine TO do it's bit by saving just
one slice of white bread each day
that is, not actually TO cut that slice
and put it by to become dry and I'M
eatable-but to reduce its bread con-
sumption by one good slice a day,
representing about three-quarters of
an ounce of -four.
That would be 100000 ounces
of -four of 937. 500 pounds per day
about ALSO barrels. The wheat in a
barrel of -four averages four and one
half bushels, so that when 20,000,0 900
families in the United States save
20 900 900 slices of bread in a day
they save about 21.500 bushels of
wheat At sixteen bushels per acre,
which is a fair average for wheat
production in the United States, that
saving of slice of bread per family
per day saves the annual wheat pro-
duction of 1850 acres. If that saw
ing were kept up every day for a
year by all the 20,000.000 families in
the United States, it would add the
wheat production of nearly 100000
acres to send to our allies on the
other side of the Atlantic.

an urgent protest against their reim-
prisonment will be made at once.
A peremptory demand for the release
of these prisoners was about the last
instruction sent former Ambassador
Gerard. Though the boat came into port
December 81 its arrival was not re-
ported, for military reasons, until
January 10.
There are two classes of German
ships in American ports. Those interned
are war vessels. such as the commerce
raiders Prinz Eitel Friedrich. Kronprinz
Wilhelm and such naval vessels as the
gunbosts Cormorant at Guam and
Geier at Honolulu. The crews of these
vessels. as well as the ships. being part
of the German naval forces which have
taken refuge in neutral harbors, are
interned as prisoners for the duration
of the war. under international law.
The status Of the war-bound German
merchantmen is different, and so is the
status of their crews. The merchant
ships are not interned in any sense Of
the word, but are remaining IN har-
Dor of refuge. They are free TO put .
sea at any time and take their chances
with enemy warships.
II is believed that Germany's inquiry
is TO clear up misconceptions widely
circulated there that Germans in the
United States have been imprisoned.

Berlin Holds Americans
Pending Seizure Notice

Berlin, Feb. II Sunday, )by wire
less TO Sayville).-Foreign Secretary
zimmerman to-day informed The As
ISOLATED Press that he had requested
the Swiss government to make inquiry
in Washington regarding the status Of
the crews Of German ships in American
ports.
Pending an answer the seventy-two
Americans taken by the German raider
and brought in by the Yarrowdale,
whose release had been agreed TO. are
being held in Germany. the Foreign
Secretary stated.
During the last week recurring
rumors have reached Berlin by way OF
London in which il was announced that
the United States government had Sc
ouestered the German ships and in
termed their crews. No definite official
denial having been received. the Ger
man government was prompted to ask
the government Of Switzerland TO OBJ
tain specific information.
Eve could not consent TO the release
of the Yarrowdale prisoners, which
was taken 20 be agreed 10 week ago
said the Foreign Secretary.
These men had been taken Off
armed merchantmen and their status
had been established. They will be
liberated Just as soon as we learn the
fate of the German crews in American
ports"
The release of the Yarrowdale pris-
oners was agreed 20 with Ambassador
Gerard on the eve of the break IN rela-
tions, but the possibility Of the Ger
man crews being interned IN the
United States prompted the Admiralty
70 rescind the orders liberating the
Americans held with the rest of the
Yarrowdale prisoners.
Il is pointed out here that this cpl
sode is a further illustration OF the
menace growing out OF the lack OF
facilities and opportunities Of free
Accommodation by both countries.

ship Yarrcv dale was given TO the
State Department to-day by DR.. Paul
Ritter. Swiss Minister here, acting for

in American harbors.
Germany. DR.. Ritter said, mad decid-
ed to hold the Yarrowdale prisoners
until she mad definite assurance that
German crews in American harbors
would not be held or imprisoned.
This development, wholly unexpected,
was amazing to the American govern
ment. Officials here had come TO the
conclusion that the early reports which
misled the German government as to
the treatment Of German crews here
had been effectively dispelled by the
forwarding OF complete details.
officials Are Puzzled
As this included the Presidential an
nouncement that German ships would
not be seized now or in the event of
war. and full information about the
fair attitude of the government tow
ard the German sailors, officials are
wholly at a loss TO know what kind Of
report could have so suddenly changed
Germany's attitude.
A query was at once cabled 70 the
Governor Of Hawaii, the only section
in which German ships are warbound
where all the conditions are not known.
There is not the least thought that any
variation will be found there in the
uniformly courteous treatment accord
ed German vessels, but officials want a
detailed account of the status Of the
two war vessels and the elght mer-
chantmen there in order to present a
final report showing the conditions in
all American harbors. Such report
has already been received from the
Philippines and included in the blanket
statement previously sent TO Germany.

prisoners is regarded as assured ous
