GERMAN TROOPS FEED
OWN PEOPLE WITH
WITH RELIEF GOODS
Vast Amount of Provisions Drained from
Occupied Regions, Despite Gov
ernments Denial

Copenhagen, Nov lin consequence
of complaints that families of German
officers stationed in occupied regions
were at special advantage as compared
with families of enlisted men in the
amount of food they were permitted to
receive from the occupied territories, the
army authorities state that officers and
soldiers are on exactly the same footing,
being permitted TO send home food pack
ages up to % pounds in weight, but no
larger.
This announcement is of interest 10
America in view of the efforts to estab-
lsh a food supply organization for Po-
land and to provide for Belgium relief.
Earlier in the war German soldiers were
permitted, in addition to the regulation
amounts of food sent by field post, to
bring with them when furloughed as
much as they could carry. Stories of
soldiers breaking down before reaching
the railway station under the weight Of
their packages and of the frequency of
Burroughs taken by soldiers to carry food
to their families were staple jokes at the
front. Vast amounts of provisions are
thus drained from the occupied regions,

government that no food is taken from
them to Germany.

Saving Easy When a Habit.

They tell us that at least S100,000,00t
worth of food is wasted in this country
yearly, with the larger part of the waste
flowing into garbage cans and running
down kitchen sinks.
We are also told that the companies
which contract to purchase garbage count
for their profit upon the fact that every

40 pounds of fat over and above the resi-

ROMANOFF FAMILY
OBJECTS OF CURIOSITY
People of Siberia Pay So Much Attention
to Them That Nicholas and the
Others Had to Be Trans
ferred to Monastery.

Petrograd, Nov. l7.-(Correspondenc'
of the Associated Press. Efforts of Thu
family of Nicholas RomanoH, the depose,
emperor, to live in seclusion in Tobolsk
Siberia, and the curiosity displayed by
the Tobolsk natives toward the former
royal family of Russia, was described by
"a correspondence of the Nova Cermya
writing from the Siberian city to which
the Romanoff family were sent. II was
because of this curiosity on the part OF
the people that the former emperor and
his family were transferred to the Abo'
lax monastery, fourteen miles from To
bolsk.
The Romanoffs occupied in Tobolsk
the house of the governor, which was
guarded by soldiers day and night. In
| the day time, the Romanof children were
often seen summing themselves on the
balcony and reading books, one in little
white hat and the other with uncovered
head, showing the short hair cut after an
attack of typhoid fever Generally a few
curious persons leaned against the pal
ings of the fence surrounding the Cover
nor's house watching what transpired
within but not interfering with its in
habitants. A special gate had been con-
structed leading from the house to the
garden but the children seldom used it
as they were shy of meeting the Tobolsk
public. This garden was small but full
of beautiful flowers. Other members of
the Romanof family occasionally strolled
through this little garden.
Not long after the royal exiles arrived
in Siberia, instructions were received
from Petrograd directing that the NUM-
cipal garden be placed at their disposal
and that a passage be constructed
through it to the nearby church so that
the Romanotis could attend divine serv
ice. The garden was ordered to be closed
to the public while the Romanoffs used
it.
When the former emperor, his wife and
children went to the church recently, a
great number of people gathered outside |
the gates of the governors house
to watch their passage, A guard OF sol |
diers lined the street. The former en-
press, Alexandra Alix. was wheeled in a |
chair to the gate of the garden, dressed |
in gray and wearing small black hat.
She appeared i'll or exhausted. Behind /
walked Nicholas in military dress, and
behind him the former crown prince
walking between his two elder sisters.
Then followed the other two sisters and
he former royal suite all walking
with hurried steps and lowered heads
.rying to avoid the gaze of the public.
IN reaching the gate leading from the
municipal garden Alexandra Aix rose
md, together with Nicholas, hurriedly
rossed the street and entered the church.

dent of the Farmers Non Partisan

| president of the Farmers National Con-
gress.
"The farmers realize" Mr.. Strayer
said, the great responsibility that rests
upon them in this world crisis. When
the liberties for which our forefathers
fought are in danger it is important for
work in the cities and in the fields to
understand one another"
President Townley urged the fedora
ton to cooperate in putting field and
factory products on the market at lower
prices and greater quantities.
Let the two great classes of producers
join hands behind the government in this
war he said. Let us put down the
profiteer. We would find, in a surprising
ly short time, that our people at home
will be better and more economically
fed, our forces at the front better and
more economically equipped"
In regard to the political aspect of the
cooperation he suggested, Mr. Town
ley said:
Remember that this would be no
mean coalition. The farmers of this
country represent 81 per cent, labor %
per cent, of the nations voting strength
President Townley made bitter at
tack on the milling interests, declaring
that the farmers received only so cents
a bushel for wheat under low grading,
while the standard wheat flour, No. | !

he added, "all of our s0-cent wheat finds {;
