Use Whole Wheat Flours
For Home Breadmaking

GERMANS TIRED OF WAR
Grief and Hunger Beginning to Ter
on War-Rdden Nation.


Copenhagen. June 9.-"Peace at
any price is becoming the dominant
sentiment among the masses of Ger
many. a ff.
The German people are war weary.
They want to quit. They are suffer
ing from the everrgrowing pressure
of hunger and the entire nation is
wrapped in grief over the tTemen-
dous losses in the war
b One of the most significant signs
is contained in an article in the
'Lokal Anzeiger' of Berlin. 1t says
in part:
After long and weary years the
heavy sacrifices yearning for peace
is appearing. In many circles OF the
nation this yearning for peace is
coupled with false hopes. One be-
lieves that the food troubles and
other difficulties would be done away
with if peace came now. But whence
will come this increased quantity of
food Immediately a peace treaty is
signed? Hunger has the strongest
influence upon the people, therefore
they gladly give ear to people that
persuade them that with peace. all
will be well at once. This again re-
suits in the wish for peace at any
price

Cardinals STRONGER.

Higgins in spite of many troubles
before Mrs. Britton sold the Cardinals
managed to gather material which now
has been welded together so cleverly
that the team is much stronger than a
year ago The only veterans are Jack
Miller, the first baseman, and Bob
Bescher. who is playing finely in left
field. HornsEy, star, is the big man
in the infield. He is covering short
stop in brilliant fashion and is the
clean up hitter. Bethel. the second
baseman, is not much larger than Hug
gins. but he is playing the bag as well
as the Cards manager ever did, which
is saying lot.

mission of Washington,


This year particularly. when a late
cold spring has held back the season,
new gardens will he planted well along
into the summer. In most localities
successful gardens may be planted as
late as July 10.
The only thing to avoid in late gar
dcns is tic planting Of crops which
mature best In cool weather. Lettuce
and spinach. for instance. do not like
hot weather. But fortunately these
plants which do combat hot weather
are the ones which usually produce
vegetables which will store well. The
most valuable war gardens will be
those which do yield storablc food.
The late garden will miss only few
things While it should not contain
leaf or head lettuce, it win grow tho
satisfactory substitute. romaine let
iuce. especially with shading. 1t will
not produce good spinach. but the sub
stitutes Swiss chard or collards will do
well in hot weather
Suitable vegetables for late gardens
are late cabbage and caulifiower. beets.
carrots. vegetable oyster, parsley. en-
dive, onions for storage, leeks, pota-
toes, Swiss chard. beans, corn, okra.
muskmelons and all vine crops, toma-
toes, eggplant. peppers and sweet po-
tatoes. the last four named requiring
transplarting.

SOLDIERS ON THE MARCH.
Distances That Trained, Hardened Men
Can Cover In a Day.

Distances That Trained, Hardened Men
Can Cover In a Day.
The Army Drill Book tells that train
ed and hardened infantry can cover
from twenty to twenty-five miles day
when in small bodies. As the size OF
the command increases the distance
covered becomes less, as the rate is
lowered and time is needed to get all
the units into and out of camp.
With a regiment or less of average
troops-regulars-m over aver
age roads, the rate should be from two
and three-quarters to three miles an
hour, while a division cannot be ex-
pected to accomplish more than twelve
and half miles day.
OF course, all these figures will vary
with different conditions Of roads and
weather. Unframed troops could not
approach them until hardened. Though
they might do better for day or two,
they could not keep up the steady pace
of the seasoned regulars for a long dis
lance.
Marching with full equipment is hard
physical work, and, like every other
form of labor, requires a proper period
of training. The seasoned force will
keep up steady pace, with ten minute
halts every hour, fifteen minute stop
being made at the end of the first half
or three-quarters of an hour. Green
troops are apt to struggle badly.-Out-
ing Magazine

Mrs. Schuyler and daughter Katrina,

would preach at st. Peters church
Sunday, but he was unable to do so
because of sudden attack of indiges-
ton, malady to which he has been
subject for some time. His condition
was much improved today.
1t is a disgraceful abuse of re-
sponsibility that local liquor dealers
are guilty of in getting recruits drunk
just before they start for Fort Ethan
Allen. The boys themselves are not
much to blame. They are starting
out on a serious job and may never
return and it is not strange that
some of them yield to temptation. The |
dealers, who fill them up with booze, |
are ones that are responsible, There |
are at least two local saloons that |
ought to have their licenses revoked
for their performance today. After

would also seem as though the police |

ers ought to take hand.

the 100000, 10000 is 100000 and it
is very essential that all branches take
this work in hand Immediately, treat
ing it as of the utmost importance and
cooperating in every way in this
campaign if we are to reach the goal
which has been set for us"

$3.50 PER TON
Price Fixed by State For
Ohio Mined Coal.

Ohio Mined Coal.
Columbus, Aug. IA statement Is
sued from the governors Office says a
maximum price has been fixed for
Ohio coal in Columbus of $4,95 a ton
for run of mine," and $3.50 a ton for
lump. Dealers, it is said, have agreed
not to go above these prices.
The statement from the governors 8
Office said a maximum price will be
fixed for dealers throughout the state,
varying for other cities according to
the length of the haul from the mines.
The governors statement followed
a conference by Cox with officials Of
the state coal exchange and clearing
house, including ]. M. Roam, director.
There seems to be no doubt about
two things" the statement said, first,
that domestic consumers will have
plenty of coal, and second, that the
profits accruing to dealers after coal
leaves the mine will not be exol-
bitant."
Prices lower even than $495 and
$3.50 were promised in case the gov.
ernment revises downward the 50 to
$3.50 scale for Ohio coal at the mines
fixed tentatively in recent confer
ences at Washington by operators
from Ohio and other states with Sec
retary Of the Interior Lane.

SOCIAL GOSSIP

the plans for the further development
of the work. II was decided to or
ganlze a missionary study class in
September. In place of Miss Wagner
who will leave soon for indianapolis
Miss Leona Dickman was selected as
junior superintendent, with Miss
Myrtle Crockett as chr assistant.
IL was resolved to continue the
regular meetings of the Endeavor

mittee being appointed to arrange a
special program for each of the en-
suing four weeks,
This was a very enthusiastic
meeting was closed with a prayer by
A. W. Fishbaugh. The remainder of
the evening was spent in a social
manner with games, followed by re-
freshments
Before dispensing, Mr.. Fishbaugh
in a very happy little talk eulogized
the splendid work Miss Wagner had
accomplished, not only in the Jun
ior C. Il but in the Sunday school
and in other departments of the
church. His remarks were supple
mented in a statement by Rev. G. WI
Horn, who assured Miss Wagner of
the appreciatio nfelt for her work
in the church and that the prayers

for her Master.
Miss Wagner responded suitably
to the addresses given and thus a

cluded.

which time Miss Myrtle Crockett will
give a book review of some definite
phase of missionary work. All are
welcome.
