CASES ARE WITHIN JURISDICTION OF ARKANSAS MUNICIPAL
 COURT.
SUPREME COURT so DECIDES
Appeal Taken From Verdict in Little Rock Court By Joe Gans-Defend- ant Was Fined $1oo and Question
 ed Jurisdiction of the Court.
Little Rock


 Municipal courts have authority to try persons charged with violation of the bone dry law, according to an opinion by the Supreme Court, which ruled that the act creating municipal courts gave them jurisdiction concur rent with circuit courts in misdemean- or cases.
 Joe Cans was convicted in the First Division Municipal Court of Little Rock of violating the bone dry law and fined $100. He appealed to the Circuit Court, where he was again convicted and the same fine imposed. His appeal to the Supreme Court was on the ground that the Municipal Court had no jurisdiction, as the act in question only provides for jurisdfc- tion in circuit courts. But the Su preme Court said the act creating the Municipal Court granted that court jurisdiction concurrent with the Cir cult Court in misdemeanor cases. A violation of the bone dry act is punish able by fine, or fine and imprison- ment in the county jail, and therefore must be classed as a misdemeanor, as a felony is one punishable by death or penitentiary sentence. Cans con tended that because the act conferred jurisdiction specifically upon the cir cult courts that this was tantamount to giving them exclusive jurisdiction, but the Supreme Court said that if this had been intended, language to that effect would have been used, and to construe the language used to have that meaning would in effect be re- pealing by implication, which cannot be done, a jurisdiction that had been specifically conferred on municipal courts. The Municipal Court had jur- isdiction to try the case and the judg- ment imposed by it was affirmed.

HOW ALL PEOPLE CAN HELP
Heavy Loss of This PerishabIe Food May Result if Americans Do Not Use 1t More LiberaIIy--Less
 Bread Is Needed.

You may know it already. but it will bear repetition now when it is im- portant that everybody eat liberally of the big potato crop; that potatoes are an excellent food for your body; that they are good fuel; that one medium sized potato gives you as much starch as two slices of bread; that, like other vegetables. they give you salts which you need to build and renew all the parts of your body and keep it in order.
 Potatoes furnish starch which burns in your muscles to let you work, much as the gasoline burns in an automobile engine to make the car go. When you have potatoes for meal you need less bread. Potatoes can save wheat.

 ScaIIoped Potatoes and Cheese.
 Arrange a layer of sliced raw or boiled potatoes in greased baking dish and sprinkle with grated cheese and a little flour. Repeat until dish Is near ly full. Pour milk over the whole, about one-half cupful to every three potatoes. Skim milk Is good. Bake in moderate oven until done. The length of time required depends upon whether the potatoes are raw or boiled and whether the baking dish used Is deep or shallow. Boiled pota- toes baked in a shallow dish will take only 20 minutes. Raw potatoes in deep dish may take as much as one and one-half hours.

POLES ON STRIKE:
 GERMANY ALONE
GERMANY INVOLVED IN A MAZE OF DIFFICULTIES ON THE
 EASTERN FRONT.

New York.--German has suddenly found herself involved in a maze of difficulties on the Eastern front and in danger of losing all the large bene- fits she was calmly preparing to real ize from her peace with the Ukraine and the Bolshevik withdrawal of Rus sia from the war.
 Poland, that land which so ire quently in the course of history has proved thorn in the side of military conquerors, is threatening to consti- tute herself the rock on which the German hope of peace and gainful ex- pansion in the East may be shattered. Embittered by the tearing off of 0 strip of their territory to be given the Ukraine for breaking away from the Bolsheviki and signing peace with the Central powers, the Poles are in what appears to be practically state of revolt.
 Even the very weapon which Ger to forge in the hope of deriving mili- tary benefit-the Polish army-bids fair to be turned against them. Re ports in the German newspapers which express dismay and alarm over the Polish situation, indicate that the Polish legions, now an effective mili- tary force, are on the side of the prev alent Polish sentiment of bitterness against the imperial powers. The sit uation has grown so serious that the military are patrolling the streets in Warsaw
 Austria-Hungary is particularly in volyed because of the leading part which it was expected she would play in the future government of Poland The Polish clements and those sym pathizing with them in Austria-Hun- gary are up in arms over the situation and further internal troubles are threatened
 It already has been reported that Germany purposes resuming military operations against Northern Russia and this report gains color by the announcement that the commission representing the Central powers at Petrograd has left the Russian capital and passed within the German mili- tary lines. The probable German pur- pose to attack the Bolsheviki is also indicated in Vienna dispatch declar- ing that if Germany decides to re- sume military operations against Rus sia ''the attitude of Austria would not be influenced thereby. This would seem to mean that Austria intends to leave Germany to fight the battle alone in North Russia. Whether sne hopes to keep up connections with the Petrograd government meanwhile is not clear, but a Sofia dispatch de- clares that Bulgaria is doing that very thing, having resumed diplomatic re- lations with Russia" However, all the Central powers are in agreement over the situation, it is declared.

Drain the water off at once. If they are cooked too long or allowed to stand in the water they get soggy.

 If you peel the potatoes before cook ing them you will waste time and po- tatoes both. You may throw away a sixth or even quarter of the good part of the potato with the skins. Also. If the potatoes aren't covered up by the skins while cooking, some of the valuable material will soak out into the water. Even very small potatoes can be economically used, if they are boiled in their skins.

SAVE A LITTLE
 SUGAR TODAY.
Use Sweet Fruits.

Sugar consumption in many households can be easily low cred not only by giving prefer ence to dishes which contain lit tie sugar or with which sugar is not usually served, but also by the use of sweet fruits. For instance, fresh fruits or baked apples may serve instead of sweet buildings, or a salad in place of dessert. Sweet, dried fruits such as dates, raisins or figs served with breakfast ce- reals will reduce the sugar needs.

RECORD POTATO CROP MUST BE CONSUMED OR WASTED

Our potato crop last year is estimated to have been 442, ,536,- 900 bushels-the largest ever produced in the United States. This crop cannot be carried over the 1918 season. It must be con- sumed or wasted. The food situ- ation throughout the world de- mands that it be consumed ef- fectively to relieve the existing strain on the supply of cereals. It is the one great food resource of the world upon which there is now danger of heavy loss.
 The department of agriculture Is of the opinion that the situa- ton demands that farmers sell freely; that the larger dealers move their stocks rapidly; that the retailer content himself with the smallest possible margin of profit, realizing that he Is now the most important factor in speeding up potato consumption; and that consumers buy and eat literally of this plentiful food.
