GREASE.

In Germany, today, the great est need is said to be for fats, and fats for frying are quoted at $4 a pound. and goose fat, Ia German staple, at $5 pound. These prices are based upon the present imports through neu- trals, which will be cut decidedly when the United States food em- bargo goes into effect.
 The Germans are a northern people. They use much more fat in their diet than do we, and their consumption of fats for lubricating purposes and for glycerine is enormous.
 The German war-makers planned carefully and painstak- ingly. Seemingly they perfected a military machine that bade fair to conquer the. world. It would be a strange circumstance if the German plan should fail because the German experts failed to figure out the amount of fat and grease that would be required to keep moving the wheels of the German military machine.
 In view of this condition it may be that the Grown Princes Verdun and Paris special is tied up with a hot box!
