German control from Hamburg to Bag

tions. 1t implies an intrenChed posi-
ton on the North sea, on the Baltic,

and economic, of the Balkan peninsula,
with all its rich lands, of the Suez
canal and Egypt. 1t means the domi-
nation of Asia and Africa. 1t means
as Napoleon said Constantinople, the
empire of the world. There might be
the Simulacrum of an alliance with
Turkey and Bulgaria, Serbia, and
Greece. But, throughout all, Germany
would everywhere absolutely control,
for German political power and for the
development of German capital and
German industry. For all practical
purposes it would be a German empire
from the Baltic to the Persian gulf.

scheme, Erandiose as it may appear,

arChy, Austria-Hungary. The alliance
at present and for so many years in
force must be exchanged for a much
closer relation, one which, whatever its
form, will mean that Germany has the
final voice in every essential question.
AS in the German empire under the
guise of federation it is in the last
analysis Prussia which determines all
essential policies, so in the new Mittel
Europa, it will be Germany, in other
words Prussia, which will really gov
ern. Whatever the outward semblance
of things, in fact Austria and Hungary
will then cease to be independent. The

will supreme throughout. The reasons
for this German middle Europe plan

Pastor Offers to Provide
Women to Till the Farms

Speedy filing of the labor shortage
on the farms of Luzerne county, Penn,
is indicated in the offer by Rev. NichO-
las ChOpey of the Wilkes-Barre Greek
Catholic church of 100 women of his
congregation, who will gladly enter
service if proper housing quarters are
supplied. Farmers have said that next
years paintings depend entirely upon
labor; that 1t will be useless to extend
cultivation under present conditions
and that the likelihood is, rather, to.

"Buddeized Milk" Can Be
Kept TWenty-0ne Days,
Two Physicians Declare

There is a way of preserving milk
for 21 days without spelling it In any
wqy, Health Commissioner John Dtll
t:1bertson and DIR. w. A. Evans, for
yter commissioner, testified to this be-
fore the Chicago milk commission.
It's called "Buddeized milk" and it's
treated to l per cent solution of
peroxide, and then heated to 12O de-
grees Fahrenheit.
The use of this milk would not only
bring down the price, Doctor Robin
son testified, but it would certainly
prevent any possibility of milk fam
ine when the railroads are storm
bound.
The use of the "Buddeized" milk, the
two doctors said, permits wholesale
buying by the housewife, and permits
the bringing of milk from greater dis
tnAces. 1t will permit a city to get a
price that is determined on butter

DiShonorable discharges from the
army, which many officers believe have
been seized upon by slackers as the
vehicle of escape from military serv-
ice, will no longer provide such OppOr-
tunity, under an order issued by Sec
retary Baker. For several weeks the
army has been losing men at the rate
of 100 to $50 day. They chose TO
commit offenses which led to their dis
honorable discharge. In the future,
Secretary Baker ordered, such men

No Connection Between the

People who rely on the moon as a
weather indicator (writes CORE

ries, for accurate comparisons prove
conClusively that there is no conncc-
tion whatever between the weather
and the moons changes of phase.
Professor Schuster analyzed a whole
century's weather records, and, as n
result, was unable to trace any lunar
period in them. Several authorities
are agreed, however, that there is a
tendency for clouds to dispense as a
full moon comes to the meridian of
any place; but it is far cry from that
to the definite belief that the weather
