Rape For Pasture

I not only have a small rape patch, but at the last culti- vation of the corn scatter before the cultivator couple pounds of rape and 20 or 90 pounds of rye This Is in fine shape by the time the hogs are turned in the corn to harvest the crop. The grow ing rape and rye do not interfere wit. the corn crop, and both furnish consi,l- erable feed and uprovlce variety while the hogs are eating corn

Ask if Rosenwald

Inquiry Reveals Quarter
masters Orders Got
Scant Attention
By G. w. Gilbert

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2l.-The Senats
Military Affairs Committee went from
guns over to clothing to-day and had
Quartermaster General Henry G.
Sharpe on the stand.
Many interesting facts regarding de-
fciencies in the supply Of the troops
in France and at the cantonments were
brought out-such as, for example,
that General Pershing had protested
that the shoes sent to his men were
too small, and also that he had been
forced to buy uniforms in England for
his men, in order, it was explained, "to
build up reserve" Some members OF
the committee seem to think that it
wasn't to build up a reserve, but to
have suitable clothing, that the Ameri-
can commander went into the English
market.
Our men are clad in l6-ounce wool,
while the British and French uniforms
are made of about 22-ounce wool Cen
eral Sharpe thought our uniforms
heavy enough for trench use, but per
sonally" he preferred the heavier cloth.
The generals personal preferences ap-
parently didn't count for much in
equipping.
New-York tribune., 1917-12-22
Sharpe Showed No
Grasp of Situation

General Sharpe showed no grasp OF
what was going on in his own bureau.
And, in fact, things didn't go on in his
bureau. The practice regarding equip
ment was for Mr.. Eiseman's committee
20 tell the depot quartermaster at Phil
adelphia where he could buy and at
what price.
The latter Colonel Zalinsky would
buy, and copies of his orders would be
sent TO General Sharpe. Afterward an
assistant Of Colonel Zalinsky, Colonel
Hirsch, was brought TO Washington and
took over the Philadelphia quartermss-
ter's function of buying what Mr.. Else
mans committee told him TO buy. He
sat with the Eiseman committee. Gen.
eral Sharpe seemed TO think well Of
being thus made a rubber stamp. He
said more than once that no such splen-
did results as had been achieved could
have been achieved otherwise.
OF the present methods the commit
tee to-day got a glimpse. When the Ma
tionai Army was called 70 camp and
uniforms were not available, two can
tonment commanders-Gene Leonard
Wood, at Camp Funston, and General
Glenn, at Chil.icothe, Ohio, General
Woods former chief Of staf-went at
once TO market and bought overalls to
clothe their men. General Sharpe was
asked on what authority General Wood
acted, and he said: 81 don't think he
had any authority"

100 Soldiers in One

Of Pro-Germanism
Women Spies Become
Vexing roblem to u. S.

The woman SPY, Of whom General
PerShing warned the American soldiers
abroad, is becoming more and more OF
a vexing problem TO the Federal Sc
cret Service here. In New York City
alone there are more than a score Of
women In the employ Of the Kaiser
who arc now being constantly shadowed
by agents of the Department of Jus
tice. One of these, it is known, is
American born, OF German parentage,
and extremely wealthy. Another, who
formerly reigned over political salon
in Berlin, bears a title.
As none of these women spies has
committed any overt" act since the
United States entered the war, they are
free to move about as their fancy die
tates. The women OF enemy countries
have not yet been placed under the
enemy alien restrictions.
