brings me TO another wonderful thing,
and that is the way the hospitals are

sometimes after months and months OF
treatment, the reconstructing process
Is finished. the men are taught trades
and placed in positions so that they
are enabled TO take up their lives

Highway Magazine Does II by Asking
Four Questions-Delivery Facil-
tiles Increased.

Four questions which every Ameri-
can is requested to put to himself are
suggested by the Dixie Highway. the
good roads publication of the Dixie
Highway association.
Do you ever stop to consider that
every bale of cotton the farmer can
add to his wagonload makes his prof
its that much greater?
And that every pound of merchan-
disc which can be added to the truck
load makes truck haulage that much
more reasonable?
And that every foot of good road
over which these wagons and trucks
travel increases the nations delivery
facilities?
And that every inch of bad road--of
fsir-weather-only road-makes hauling
that much more expensive; makes the
farmers profit that much less than 1t
should be?

SOLDIERS LIKED WAR BREAD
British Fighting Men Found Their
Health Improved Through Use Of
Unboited Wheat Meal.

A little more than a century ago,
when Britain had been fighting for
years against Napoleon, food became
very scarce. Following is from a book
on bread-making, written by Sylvester
Graham. in 1897:
I'm order to conserve wheat as much
as possible. the British government or
dered that the army should be supplied
with bread made from unbolted wheat
meal, !. e., simply the wheat ground
without having the bran or mlddlings
removed. The soldiers were Mt first
displeaged with the bread and refused
to eat It. even casting 1t from them In
great rage, but after two or three
weeks they began to be much pleased
with 1t and preferred II to the fine
-four bread.
"The result Of this experiment was
that not only was the wheat made to
60 further, but the health OF the SOL
diers improved so much and so mani,
testify In the course OF few months
that 1t became matter of common re-
mark among themselves and of ebser7
and physicians of the army. They ex,
pressed themselves with confidence
and zeal on the subject. The public
declared that the soldiers were never
30 healthy and robust. The public pa
pers were for months filed with prnise
Of whole-wheat bread. and 1t was reg
ularly introduced into families.
"Still, after this experiment with
such happy results and so general and
full testimony had been given in IA
or Of the coarse-wheat bread, when
large supplies of superflne flour came
In from America. and the crops from
home became again abundant and the
act of parliament regarding the food
Of the army became extinct, most OF
the people by degrees returned to their
old habits of eating fine bread"

Rubber In japan.

The rubber manufacturing industry
in Japan has developed greatly within
the past year in the scope and variety
OF its products. In the export trade.
too is Importance Is increasing. The
growth OF the industry may be seen
from the steady increase In the Inn
port OF crude rubber. The official trade
returns state that the import in 1917
totaled 9,6S9632 yen over the figure
for 1915. Formerly most OF the auto
mobile tires used in Japan were inn
ported into that country, but now the
greater part OF Japnn's needs are sup
piled by domestic manufacturers. The
export of automobile tires has also
begun with the development of rubber
plants In Japan.

CHAPTER XIV.
Je Suis BIcssc.

AS usual, when we got to Brest there
was rush work day and night on the
Cassard to get her out and supplies of
all kinds were loaded for our next
visit to the Turks. The French gar
bles were always keen for the trip
back TO Brest-they were sure of load
Ing up on tobacco and other things
they needed.
My twelfth trip to the Dardanelles
was different from the others. The
Cassard was doing patrol work at the
time In the neighborhood of Cape
Helles. Those of us who had served
on the Peninsula before were thank
ing our stars for the snap we were
havlng-just cruising around waiting
for something to happen.
We had not been there very long be-
fore something unexpected did happen,
for we ran into two enemy cruisers
which / afterwards heard were the
the starboard and one on the port.
How they had managed TO sneak up
so near us | do not know. They
opened up on us ut not much more
than thousand yards and gave us II
hot time from the start, though with
any kind of gunnery they should have
done for us thoroughly.
We came right back at them and
were getting in some pretty good shots.

do not know how long we had been
fighting when part of our range finder
was carried away. II was SO hot,
though, and we were so hard ut II that
such little thing like that did not
bother US. II Is hot in any gun turret
but l have always noticed that II Is
hotter there in the Dardanelles than
In any other place. The sweat would
simply cake up on us. until our faces
were just covered with IA, film OF pow
derry stun.
But the range finder was carried
away, and although II looked bad foI

do not believe I came to, singing, be-
cause l never sang "Sweet Adeline"
before, that know OF, or any other
song when anybody was In range. But
heard II lots of times, so maybe
did sing 1t at that.
Then l went to sleep feeling fine.
The next morning the detachment
from the Cassard was withdrawn, and
saw some of the men who had been
in the two trenches, but I was not
near enough to speak to them. so
do not know how they got out.
You never saw happier bunch In
your life than we were when we piled
into the lifeboats and started for the
Cassard. The old ship looked pretty
good to us, you can bet, and we said
IL we never put our hoofs on that place
again 1t would be soon enough.
We were shelled on our way out to
the Cassard, and one boat was over
turned, but the men were rescued.
Two men I'm the launch l was In were
wounded. But we did not pay any
attention TO that shelllng--the Turks
might just as well have been blowing
peas at us through soda straw for
all we cared.
! noticed that when we came near
the Cassard the other boats held up
and let our launch get into the lead,
and that we circled around the Cas-
sard's bows and came up on the star
board side. which was unusual. But
! did not think anything of 1t until I
came over the side. There were the
side boys lined up, and the Old Man
was there. with the ships steward
beside him.
He took the log book from the stew
ard and showed It to me, and there
was my name on 1t. Now when you
are punished for anything you are
logged but l could not figure out what
1 had done to get punished for, so
was very much surprised. But the
Old Man slapped me on the back and
everybody cheered, and then I saw 1t
was not punishment, but Just the OPP
poslte.
When people ask me what have
received my decoration for (Croix de
Guerre), tell them i do not rightly
know. and that Is a fact. l do not
know whether II was for going back
from those trenches or for destroying
the storehOuses. SO / always tell them
l got 1t for working overtime. That
Is what the Limeys say, or IL they
have the Victoria cross they say they
got 1t for being very careless. Ask
one Of them and see.
All OF us were certainly glad to be
aboard the Cassard again, and IL any
place ever looked like home to me It
was the old ship. Our casualties were
very high and we were therefore or
dered TO put back to Brest. We had
n great little celebration that night,
and next morning weighed anchor and
started back, after clearing for action.
l was still pretty blue about Muir
ray, but very much relieved as to the
safety of my own skin, and l figured
that after the Dardanelles and my last
day there they had not made the right
bullet for me yet. The rest OF us felt
about the same way and we were sing
Ing all the time.

Industries OF the country which are
supplying the needs of our men on the
battle fronts as well as the taxes of
the government and the necessities of
the men, women and children who are
keeping the wheels going at home.
'rhe federal government, the manu-
facturer and the farmer for months
have been depending on the highways
for the transportation of enormous
amounts of materials and supplies by
motor trucks. The roads fast are
wearing down and hundreds of miles
Of highways will become useless I'M

the principal cost Is in the foundations.
The top, or road surface, naturally is
the first to give way. break and finally
grind up and disappear. leaving the
foundations exposed.
Foundations costing hundreds of
millions Of dollars now are I'm danger
OF being ruined forever, when they
could be saved by proper resurfacing,
but this should be done at once or else
the costly foundations win have to be
done all over again. In some states
and localities there is n disposition to
delay work until after the war on the
theory that men and materials are
more needed In the war work. This Is
a mistake which should be corrected.
Without the highways the business of
the country would be crippled. The
roads must be preserved both for war
purposes and for the safeguarding Of
our industries, upon which our cOun-
try's revenues depend. Makeshlft sur
