LOOKS FOR MASTERY
OF SUBMARINES

London, May 19.-Kennedy Jones,
director of food economy. expressed
the belief that the German subma-
rines were beginning to be mastered,
in an address delivered at Edin-
burgh tonight on the necessity Of
economy in food consumption. Mr..
Jones said:
1--WE have been able, thanks to the
ingenuity Of the admiralty and the
skill Of our sailors, to make attacks
by q new method on the German u
boats, which so far have been at
tended by success. I think that sue
cess will continue. 1t would trump
another trick and might produce an
earlier termination Of the war than
those in high command hoped for"
Mr.. Jones added that the neces-
sity for compulsory rationing had
not yet arisen and that the counary
showed distinct signs Of obeying the

out much delay. The only other i'm
portant Senate amendment Is stip-
ulation that provisions Of the war
draft army bill shall remain in force
only until four months after the war.
Most OF the money appropriated
will go to pay expenses of the war
army and Of the increased navy and
marine corps already authorized.
The largest single items are for pay
OF enlisted men. There also are big
appropriations for equipment, fortl-
fications and munitions.
The military establishment will
get about s2,225. 100000 Of the total
and the navy about $500, 100000.
For clothing and camp garrison
equipment nearly quarter Of a
billion is provided. and for coast and
insular Notifications more than half
a billion. An estimate OF eleven mil
lions for aviation Is included in the
navy's quota
The bill. by far the largest sup
ply measure ever considered in Con-
gress. was debated less than thfee
days in the Senate, most Of the dis
cussion centering about the $780,

Tuberculosis, like measles and
scarlet fever. is chiefly a childhood
infection. although, unlike those d.
seases, It frequently does not become
active until later years. Examiners
OF school children In carious places
have found evidences of tuberculosis
in from 20 to 40 per cent and even
more. One authority says OF tuber-
culosis: 1T is essentially disease
OF childhood, for nine out OF ten
children at the age Of twelve years
have already been infected" But
he also says: "Postmortem eIamin.
atilon reveals the fact that nine out
of ten who die give evidence Of hav-
ing had tuberculosis. but that only
one of nine have succumbed to the
disease. Here lies our hope"
The human body has a natural re-
slstance to destructive germs This
resistance is weakest in children and
increases with age. Tuberculosis is
rarely contracted after middle life.
tuberculosis is not inherited II
is always contracted by taking into
the body the germs OF the disease
from consumptive or, in some
cases. by drinking raw milk from
tuberculous COW.
THE disease Is most commonly
transmitted through parental minis
tration in the home" says one au-
thority. The mother pressing her

Investors should buy as many
peace bonds as they can. That will
be serving their country. Then n.y.
pothecate the bonds for all they can
get, and with that money purchase
all the shares they can in any of the
reputable mines or potential pros
poets on the market.
The chances are good that before
the summer is over they will not only
have the bonds redeemed, but have
their original cost returned to them
and a surplus with which to buy ne
cessities next winter.
II there is little present lull. this
is the time to buy. for there should
be a sharp reaction. Men should

LARGE HOTEL
BUILDING FOR
LAVA SPRINGS

w. r. Godfrey Is erecting hotel
building which will be credit to
Lava Hot Springs, and the many tour
lists who visit the resort daily. The
building, which Is to consist OF press
ed brick and concrete, will be modern
In every respect. All rooms will be
steam heated. well lighted and venti-
lated. The large lobby on the first
floor gives one splendid view OF the
entire valley.
The state natatorlum, being only
about one hundred yards distant.
makes it very convenient for guests
to battle in Lava's world renowned
springs. And the cafe room in con-
nection with the hotel furnishes an
excellent opportunity to satisfy the
intense hunger which the bathing
creates.
The building of this hotel has
given boost to Lava in general, and
real estate has taken jump. Sew
eral other buildings are under con-
struction, including national bank,
apartment houses and residences.
People are daily arriving and camp
ing in tents until proper residences
can be built.
The contract for $780, 900 has been
let to Murray and Marshall of Poca-
tello. who have agreed to have the
building completed by July 4, 1917.
Marshall and the architect. C. u. On
derdonk, both think 30 much OF the
future Of Lava Hot Springs that they
have purchased lots and will erect
buildings at once.
Street lights have Just been in
stalled, and the city council is now
working on plans for civic improve
ments. such as street paving. sewer
sidewalk extension and numerous
other improvements. In fact. Lava
has assumed an air of general pros
perity. and there is no doubt now OF
it's being one of the best cities and
health resorts In Idaho.

Chicago, Nov. e.-Prospects that the
government crop report this afternoon
would show a larger yield of corn than
was indicated month ago tended to-
day to weaken the corn market. Be-
sides leading authorities assert that
signs pointed to heavy marketing OF
soft corn, despite efforts to have such
grain utilized for feeding on farms.
Mild temperatures also counted as an
element of weakness. Opening quota
lions, which We're unchanged to y cent

May at SL13ss to $1-14, were followed
by a material setback all around.
Subsequently New York stock mar
ket weakness associated with keren-
sky's overthrow and with Russian
peace talk brought about much in
creased selling of corn and led to ad-
dltional downturns in prices here. The
close was nervous, IN to rs cents net
