War Gardens in Europe.

War gardens have pulled Germany
thru two summers; in the largest
cities as much as 25 or 80 per cent of
the food consumption of the Germans
was of the fresh vegetables from their
gardens. This greatly relieved Ger
many's cereal situation.
England and France have turned
over big estates which have been in
families for generations and trans
formed them into vegetable gardens.

EXTREME UNREST
IS INDICATED IN
CENTRAL EMPIRES
Germans To Evacuate Rouma-
nia-Press Bureau TO Quit.
by international News service.)

Washington, Oct. 29-,Latest re-
ports from Germany and Austria
dealing with the political and mill
tary situation in the two countries
we're before the cabinet this after
Eoon. These reports compiled by ag-
ents of the state department empha-
sized the unrest within the central
empires. Officials, however. have
adopted an attitude of extreme re-
ticence and refuse to discuss impend
ing Developments. 1t is felt that the
situation is such that premature
statements regarding diplomatic de
velopments might prove extremely
dangerous.
The latest Austrian note was look
ed for late today. 1t was not believ-
cd that there would be any immedi-
ate reply to it although, of course,
only the president and Secretary
Lansing are in position to say Just
what will be done.
Meanwhile diplomatic sources
were in receipt of many dispatches
showing the constant development of
the anti-government movement in
all Of the Teutonic territories. From
Berne came statement that sever
al German functionaries, arriving at
Vienna en- route to Berlin, reported
that there is not single German ci.
Villain left in Bucharest. The Ger
man military authorities are sending
to Germany all of the military stores
there, and that it is believed they
are about to evacuate all of Rou-
mania.
The efforts to organize stable
government in Hungary have appar-
emily failed. The dissolution of Hun
gary now is believed to be certain
with the different nationalities or
sanizing their own territory along
racial lines. >
The Berlin adyices say that the
foreman general headquarters has
eeen forced to dissolve its press bu-
reau because. the newspapers com
planned that the information sent out
was false.

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray streaked and faded hair is grand mothers recipe, and folks arc again using it to keep their hair a good even color, which is quite sensible as we are living in an age when Q youthful appearance Is of the great est advantage.
 Nowadays. though, we don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing al home. All drug stores sell the ready to-use product improved by the ad- dition of other ingredients, called ''Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound" 1t is very popular because nobody can discover 1t has been ap- piled. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, but what de- lights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, is that, be- sides beautifully darkening the hail after a few applications, it also pro duces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which Is so attractive This ready -to-use preparation is de- lightful toilet requisite for those who desire a more youthful appearance It is not intended for the cure, miti- gation or prevention of distase.

 At the Patriotic Food Exhibi. held in January not only were the people of Norwich and of all parts of the county greatly benefited by the lec- lures and demonstrations on food top ics, but they also had the opportunity to view one of the best food exhibits in the state, showing dishes in ac- cord with food conservation measures and furnishing the recipes of these dishes. Due to the efforts of the Nor wich HousETiveS Army and the Home
 Demonstration agent, several of the
 bakers of the city have taken up the making of Liberty Bread and other
 wheat substitute loaves. At Taft vile a demonstration on the ways of preparing cornmean was given be- ! fore 300 women, many of whom could not understand English, necessitat- ing the use of an interpreter.
 This work has already produced splendid results. Many women who have never done any canning have told of the large amounts that they did last summer. very successfully Many others who have never canned vegetables before are more than pleas, ed with results. Many reports have
 come in of the successful use of sub stitutes, including wheat, ntat, ami
