This remarkable photograph was
taken inside the German lines from
the airplane of an aviator who made
raid on a great boche ammunition
depot. The daring aviator, starting
out on the apparently reckless ven
ture of getting by the German lines
and successfully bombing the Teuton
stores of munitions, flew to a point
above the depot and dropped quanti-
ties of incendiary bombs while the
Germans kept firing terrific fusillade
at him. Despite the danger, he kept
at his task and earned his reward
when he saw the munition storehouse
burst into flames. The smoke from
the burning depot can be seen ascend
ing. The aviator returned to his own
lines safely.

POTATO CROP

Government Forecast Shows
Increase Of 100 Million
Bushels.

New York, Oct. 1s.-The govern
ment forecast of the first war crop OF
potatoes is 452, 900, 900 bushels, an in
crease Of 100, 000, 900 bushels owe last
year, according to an announcement
BY L.. D. Sweet, head of the Potato
Division of the United States Food adj
ministratton here tonight.
I'VE " now faced with the prob
lem Of utilizing this one hundred mill
ion excess to the greater advantage
of the farmers who have grown them
and the public who will get them,"
said Mr.. Sweet.
Everybody can do something to
bring this about Hotels and restaur-
ants are in a particularly favorable
position to help. now that meatless
and wheatless days are at hand, by
showing potatoes prominently to the
front"
The government, Mr.. Sweet, said,
looked forward eagerly to an increase
IN the potato crop because it was only
through such a happy result that the
shipment Of meat and wheat to the
entente allies could be accelerated.
1t is not longer necessary to eat
sparingly Of potatoes" Mi. Sweet
continued. mot only is there a suf-
hciency of food, but also enough for
next seasons seed supply"

HEAVY NEW BREAK
in HOG PRICES AS
BUYERS HOLD OFF

Chicago, Oct 1s.--Buyers held off
today in the hog market and owners
became demoralized. with prices un-
dergoing a big new break. Cattle
offerings lacked quality. There was
no urgent call for sheep.
Receipts 10000; slow; bulk $3.50
to $16.50; light $500 to $3.50;
mixed. $3.50 to 1850; heavy, s15's
to $500: rough, 1855 to $15.55;
pigs. $11.00 to $14.75.
Cattle: Receipts, 5000; weak; ma
tive steers. $6.75 to $17.10; western
steers, $3.50 to s13.65; stockers and
feeders, $500 to $11.4O; cows and

to $1,000.
Sheep: Receipts, 1000; weak;
wethers, $500 to $3.50; lambs, $12.75
In later transactions; shipping de-
mand for nearby deliveries of lard
acted to a considerable extent as an
offset for pronounced weakness OF

For such service the railroad COM

WHEN ACCIDENTS HAPPEN

What the First Alder Should Do
State Board of Health Bulletin.
As accidents will happen, every
body should know what to do in case
of an accident, particularly an acct
dent to the body. Oftentimes a few
minutes delay or i'll directed aid may
mean serious consequences, probably
death, whereas few simple first aid
lead to recovery.
Painting spells or light states of
unconsciouAness are frequently en-
countered, and are brought about by
lack Of a sufficient blood supply for
the brain. When person faints he
should be laid flat on his back with
his feet elevated. Never give whis-
key or any form Of alcohol for faint
ing spells. 1t has long since been
found to a nerve, brain and heart de-
use is quite harmful in depressed
conditions. A few whiffs of aromatic
ammonia, Or half teaspoonful in a
wineglass of cold water, is a good
remedy, but to have the head low,
the feet high, the clothing loosened
and plenty of fresh air are the most
The most important thing to re-
member about wounds is to keep
them clean. 1t is better to never try
to treat wounds before the physicians
arrival unless you are quite sure
your dressings are surgically clean,
free from bacterial infection. Never
wash a wound with water unless it
has been boiled. Make it bleed in
stead by milking it.
Slight cuts may be bathed with
peroxide Of hydrogen, but never lac
Grated wounds, especially if dirt has
gotten into the wounds. They should
be cleansed as soon as possible with
gasolene or turpentine and then
painted with iodine. If earth has
been forced into the wounds they
| should be made to bleed freely and
the services of a physician secured
for advice against tetanus Or lockiaw.
The first thing to do for burn
is to keep the air from it. This can
be done by keeping it submerged in
water, or by covering it with a paste
J Of soda or flour, or by applying vas
cline or some other ointment. Deem
burns should be treated like wounds,
care being taken not to infect the
burn on attempting to dres sit. Sun
burn is also treated like slight
wounds.

Greensboro News.
Amid tie thunder OF the captains
and the shouting, nobody has much
inclination to devote a great deal OF
attention to such things, but never
theiess one Of the most important
chronicles of the week is that state
ment from the State food conserva-
ton commission, relating the story
of Gainesville, Fla. 1t is SO short
ard SO important that we shall re-
peat it. In Gainesville a North Car
Gilman established market for hog
and hominy. He had proper faclll-
ties for Smelling and grading corn,
and adequate warehouses;; and what
is most important, he paid farmers
the market price for their products.
The first year he bought three car
loads of corn and a carload OF hogs
from the agriculturlsts near the
town. The next year they brought
in 20 carloads of corn and - car
loads of hogs. This, the third year,
they will double last years record:
AS result of the establishment OF
this market Gainesville has profited,
and the man who did 1t is not lett
out in the cold.
If a farmer has 5000 bushels of
corn, or carload of hogs to sell, he
usually has no difficulty in finding
somebody to give him the full mar
ket price; but when it comes to a
matter Of 25 bushels of corn, or a
couple of pigs, the pig dealers will

The purchase Of a farmers surplus
corn and his extra pig at a good
price furnishes a greater incentive
than all the argument in the world
for him to go to raising hog and
hominy in earnest. If the State food
conservation commission can get real
markets established in all the i'm

will come in fast enough next year;
and Heaven knows, by this time next
year We are likely to be needing all
that we can get.
