CHILDREN KILLED

FALLING WALL OF BURNED
BUILDING ADJOINING
CRUSHES ROOF.
SIX BADLY INJURED; IL DEAD
Rescue 20 Severely Injured, While 80
Others Are Suffering-Majority

in Theater at Time.

Winchester, Ky.-Twelve persons
were killed, 10 of whom were children,
23 persons were so severely injured
it was found necessary to remove them
to the Clark county hospital, and about
30 others were less seriously hurt
when the walls of burned building
adjoining moving picture theater
collapsed crushing in it's roof last
Saturday
Six of the 23 injured taken to the
Clark county hospital were thought to
be fatally hurt. The majority of these,
as we'll as hose not so seriously hurt,
were children, several hundred of
whom were crowded into the picture
theater when the crash came
The wall which collapsed was also
used as one wall of the theater, but
projected considerably above the roof
of the theater building. When it col
lapsed part fell on the theater's roof
The wallis collapse at the same time
removed the support from the roof
on that side and it crashed down.
The greatest force of the fall was
spent upon one section of rs seats, and
it was here that all of the fatalities
and serious injuries occurred.
The first result of the crash was a
panic in which the hundreds of child
rem and a small number of grown per
sons struggled to reach the entrance
Apparently no one was hurt in this
rush.
Within a short time hundreds of per
sons attracted to the scene cleared
away the wreckage.

Food May Be Saved by Close
Watch of Weather Forecasts

Immense losses of food products, oc-
casioned by freezing and other injuri-
Gus weather conditions, occur annually
that may, with proper precautions, be
avoided. This is especially true of
shipments by rail during the winter
season. The weather bureau issues
forecasts daily, and special warnings
as occasion demands, giving informa-
ton of expected weather conditions, in
Guiding frosts, cold waves, high winds
and heavy rains or snow. During the
winter season, officials in charge of
nearly all weather bureau stations is
sue daily what are known as "Ship-
pers' Forecasts" giving the minimum
temperature expected to occure within
a shipping radius of from "a to 36
hours from the station. These fore
casts are published on postal cards.
Careful watch of forecasts and
warnings will often enable shippers to
avoid losses, either by expediting or
delaying shipments or taking extra pre-
cautions to protect goods from injury.
No shipment of considerable length
should be made without first ascertain
ing the expected conditions over the
route. The occasion demands the ut
most care to prevent losses of food not
only as matter of self-interest but as
q patriotic duty.

GERMANY NOW THREATENS
SWEDEN, DENMARK, NORWAY
Scandinavian Countries Subjected to
Bitter Denunciation-Reaso is
Plain-Get No Mercy.

London.-The newest and most nov
ell display of German policy has come
in the form of a sudden broadside of
denunciation of the Scandinavian
countries by German newspapers and
publicists, like Count Reventlow of
the Tages zeitung From the simil-
arity of the articles it is evident
that they are directed by one mind,
which mind apparently is the German
government.
The articles accuse TIE Scandina-
Wan countries substantially of being
accomplices to the entente and warn
them that, therefore, they can err
pect no consideration from Germany
The reason for this policy is plain to
diplomats here. Germany's dealings
with Finland thus far seem designed
to make Finland a minor German
kingdom, with the emperor's son,
Prince Oscar, on the throne, and to
make another Helgoland of the Aland
islands.
This scheme is direct blow against
Sweden, and, in a less degree, against
Denmark and Norway, and is in line
with the German emperors boast
that the Baltic lands have been made
permanently German.

TORNADO IN OHIO
KILLED FIVE PEOPLE
SEVERAL OTHERS REPORTED AS
DEAD, SCORES INJURED,
HOMES DESTROYED.
GREAT DAMAGE TO PROPERTY
Estimates Place Loss at $1,000, 900 to
$4,000, ooo-Chickens Denuded of
Feathers-Hundreds of Barns
Are Destroyed.

Lima, Ohio.-Five persons are now
known to be dead, several others are
reported killed. scores are injured,
scores of homes were completely de-
molished and hundreds of barns were
RACED by the tornado which ragged
Saturday night.
Estimates of property damage ran
from $1,00O,00O to 100000.
No serious damage was done in
any of the larger cities. Most of the
destruction was in country districts.
The known dead:
Rexford Lye, age 10, Middle Point.
Harry Perry, 8, near Van Vert.
Mrs. Charles Gree, Middle Point.
Mrs. Charles Geyer, 67, Van Vert
county.
Pearl Bot, 26, near Cloverdale
The tornado came in the form or
Kansas "twister." Abe small loss of
life is attributed to the fact that the
tornado travelled mostly through open
country skipping towns and villages.
Most of the injured in Van Vert
county were taken to the Van Vert
county hospital, where operations
were performed by the light of cleo
trio pocket lights.
The tornado played queer pranks
Hundreds of chickens were entirely
denuded and left without a feather.
Big boulders, weighing a ton. were
lifted from fields or creeks and car
ried many yards.
A tornado visited the west and mid
die portions of Seneca county, caus-
ing thousands of dollars worth of
damage.
Many buildings were carried from
their foundations and set down in
adjacent fields.
Damage estimated at 100000 was
done in Hancock county when the tor
nado swept through.

Culture Buttermi|k More
Beneficial as Drink; Has
More of the Tactic Acid

Culture buttermilk is more beneficial
as drink than the common variety,
according to G. e. Buchanan of the
dairy department of the Kansas State
Agricultural college. 1t Is more like
~ to be free from harmful bacteria,
and to contain more of the Tactic acid
which gives 1t its healthful properties.
Tactic acid bacteria are present In
the digestive tract and destroy other
bacteria which might prove injurious
to the body. The use of buttermilk as
a beverage is one method of introduc.
ing more of these Tactic bacteria into
the system.
Whole or skim milk may be used to
make culture buttermllk, but usually
these are combined In equal parts. The
milk is first subjected to temperature
of $50 degrees for 80 minutes to steri-
lie II. 1t is then cooled to 70 de-
grees and a small amount of starter
Is added. The milk is kept at this
temperature for ten or twelve hours
until the whole is coagulated. After
wards 1t is beaten thoroughly or churn-
ed from three to five minutes and salt
ed-one teaspoonful of salt to each
gallon. The buttermllk is then cooled
to 80 degrees, at which temperature II
is kept ready for use.
The starter Is made from pure Tactic
acid culture obtained from the labora'
tories where 1t is cultivated. The lac
tic acid bacteria are carried by means
of sterilized milk powder made from
the dried casein of milk.
A small quantity of this powder IL
put into a small bottle of milk, which
soon coagulates. The curded milk Is
used In new bottle of milk the next
day and this process is continued
through three or four propagations
These preliminary propagations of the
starter are necessary to eliminate the
peculiar taste of the original powdered
milk culture.

Grain, Flour and Feed.
Wheat.-There is nothing much to
be said about the wheat market. Re
ceipts have dwindled daily to almost
nothing and the millers are getting
only a small portion of their wants to
grind. The car situation is largely re-
sponsible for the dwindling of the
movement, as there is plenty of wheat
in the interior that can be delivered
to terminal markets. Farmers have
been selling quite freely; shipments
of wheat eastbound have been entirely
suspended owing to the government
being unable to secure cars for the
same, and how long this will last and
shipments be resumed is problem for
the director of the railroads to take
into consideration. Many of the coun-
try mills which have been down on
account of the food administration reg
ulations, were taking in considerable
wheat and sending it to market, but
it is now a question what effect the
proposed plan to increase the guaran-
teed price on the 1918 crop will have
on farmers. 1t 81 believed that many
of them will be inclined to hold for
still higher prices expecting a differ
ent ruling to be made little later on
from Washington.
Flour.-Active demand for flour con-
tinues, but millers say it is not ques-
ton these days of trying to sell -four;
on the contrary they find it necessary
to deliver sales in all cases so as to
make the best possible distribution
among their trade. Some of the mills
have already ground up their full al
| lotment of wheat for this season and
have closed down so far as wheat flour
is concerned, and some of them are
now grinding barley and rye flour in.
stead. Flour quotations are unchanged
although substitutes are in greater de-
mand and prices higher The demand
for flour at the present time is ex-
ceeded by the supply.
| ecu. ne lulult Ol the letu STU
alton is complicated one, and appar.
emily reflects lack of judgment on the
part of the administration in not al
once taking action to establish and
maintain prices on the coarser grains
AT present there are sustained ad
vances in barley, corn and oats, the
principal substitutes being employed
for wheat, and they are far above theii
normal parity, by comparison with the
great staple upon which the export de
mand is emphasized. This is not only
making the position of the dealer, the
baker and consumer a difficult one
but, as a matter of fact, threatens tt
curtail oncoming crops, because grow
ers can secure more returns to the
acre as well as a better price for the
coarser grains. There have been ad
vances in oats, corn and barley dur
ing the past two weeks, all having
gone above the $40 mark, and, Will,
demands are fair supplies are increas
ingly difficult to obtain.

Butter-Is still holding up to SIC
jobbing, with receipts about covering
current demands. Storage is practi-
cally wiped out, and holding up to 4Sc.
Abundant rains in California have inn

will require some time before relief
comes from that source.
Cheese.-The market continues to
run light on supplies and firm on quo
tations. Washington and Oregon
makes are holding at 25@26c.
Eggs.-Receipts have continued to
increase since last week and the mar
ket has experienced another sharp de-
cline, but it is thought that the bot
tom has about been reached. Local
jobbers are paying the producers $500
per case this week and should the re-
ceipts continue as now that figure may
be shaded to 5000 by the first of the
week.
Fresh Meats.-The market has been

secutive advance. Lard is also up this
week a half cent to 2S15c.

venting the export of any hides from

sition of domestic buyers and there is
