Appalling Stories
Returning travellers tell appalling
stories of the devastation wrought by
disease and starvation in the Ottoman
empire. The also repeat the oft-told
story that the Turkish people are sick
at heart over the war and its entailed
mlseries, but are kept in subjection
Dy the iron hand of Enver Bey and his
German colleagues.
A striking example of the rigidfty
or the German censorship - afforded
by the news that no German news
paper is allowed to leave the empire
without being passed by the govern
ment officials. Wire fences charged
with electricity have also been erect
ed along the German-Swiss frontier
and every possible precaution has
been taken to prevent the details of
what Is transpiring within the realms
OF the central powers from reaching
the rest of the world.
Russ Maintain silence
Apart from France, there are few
developments of Importance in the
war theaters. The British continue to
drive forward in Mesopotamia but
there is a curious silence in regard to
the Russian armies in that region. An
attack on a fairly large scale has
been made by the allies on the Salo-
niki front but there is nothing as
yet to indicate whether a general Of
fensive is planned in this region.

President Sends
Appeal to Farmers
The White House,
April "a, 1917.


To the Farmers of the Country:
At the present moment it is our
plain duty to take adequate steps
that not only our own people be
fed, but that we may, If possible,
answer the call for food of other
nations now at war. In this great
est of human needs I feel that the
American farmer will do his part
TO the uttermost.
By planting and increasing his
production in every way possible,
every farmer will perform a labor
of patriotism for which he will be
recognized as a soldier of the COM
missary. adding his share to the
food supply of the people.

FORESTALLING OF
FOOD IN MARKETS
IS AROUSING IRE
High Prices Offered For Eggs
That They May Be Placed
in Storage
TRY POTATO CORNER
Farmers Being Promised $1.50
Per BuShel For All Tubers
They Raise

A prominent woman of this city
one much interested in all good work
-phoned the TELEGRAPH to-day to
invoke the aid of this newspaper in
overcoming the forestalling of food
in the markets of Harrisburg.
In going through one of the lead
ing markets yesterday she was told
by a patriotic woman from the coun-
try that men were tramping up and
down through the market Offering
higher prices for eggs than the pre-
vailing market figures in order to
place them in storage.
Il didn't sell one egg to these men,
said the farmers wife, because l felt
1t was an outrage to purchase eggs
for the purpose of storage at a time
like this. l would rather sell my
eggs for less than the market price
than to permit these men to deprive
the poor people of an. opportunity to
buy them at a reasonable price"
Seek to Tie Up Potato Crop
This instance would seem to indi-
cate the need of a sharp lookout in
the markets of Harrisburg. 1t is bad
enough that the price of food should
be increased through a possible short
age of supply, but it is outrageous
that selfish men will endeavor to cor
ner the market by Offering a some
what higher price now that they may
profit by still higher price a few
months hence, Buyers say.
1t is also said that men are going
through the country districts, Roberts
Valley has been mentioned as one,
offering farmers and others $3.50 a
bushel for all the potatoes they can
grow during the present season. 1t
is said this is preliminary to monopo-
lizing the entire crop of potatoes in
this part of Pennsylvania and some
steps will undoubtedly be taken by
the Committee of Public Safety to
check the food grabbers.
