Mitchell.-Coal that several weeks
ago was pronounced useless and aban-
doned as far as their use was con
cerned, by the Milwaukee railroad,
has been the mea of saving Mitchell
from a serious coal famine, accord
ing to railroad men here. The coal,
$500 tons Of it, was hauled here last
summer and became slack laying in
the local yards. 1t was found this fall
that the coal was useless as engine

German Food Shortage

The Berliner Vorwaerts has been
suspended for three days because it
said some unpleasant truths about
Germany's food supply. The paper
declares that masses of the people
were not only hungry but are literally
starving. While the m%illionaires were
boarding food, the paper said, forty
millions of themasses are starving and
have" said the paper, within a month
an absolute catastrophe in Germany
and a collapse even worse than the
Russian, resulting in a German defeat
and loss of the war"
Vorwaerts is a radical socialist pa
per and and then has a blunt
way of telling the truth which the
kaiser does not like. This was too
much and the paper was punished by
being shut down for three days, but
here m the conservative and
careful Berliner Tageblatt which vir-
tually says the same thing. That pa
per declared recently that city dwell
ers were facing the winter with apx-
ious concern and serious fear The
foodstuffs prospects, it said, were
more unfavorable than at n time
during the war and it added that there
was danger, in addition to high prices
which had become a terrible burden
on the masses that not wen the most
necessary food stuffs could be abso-
lutely assured.
The Associated Press on Christmas
day brought the news that on the
streets of Berlin thousands of women
were on the s~now-covered streets beg
ging for food, and that the only peo-
pie in that city who had an even mod
erately good dinner were the rich, and
that the dinner cost them about $50.
It is manifest that the seizure of the
grain supplies Of Rumania and that
foodstuffs which have been secured
from Russia have not been sufficient
to solve Germany's growing food

LeaA.-A verdict to the effect that
death was due to an unavoidable &C
cident was returned by a coroner's
jury which investigated the death of
Jesse Noble, who was killed by rock
falling upon him in the Homestake
mine, where he was employed. There
had been two previous falls of small
amounts Of rock before the great
fell. Other miners retired to a place
of safety, but Noble remained under
the timbers, which were crushed
down upon him when about 100 car
loads of rock became d~islodged in the
roof of that level of the mine and fell.
The mass of rock was so heavy that
it required six hours time TO dig No
ble's body from under the pile. He
was 80 years Of age and is survived by
his mother and a sister.

Conservation the Key
To Success in Great
ST uggle of The Day

To all who use coal cars:
The nation requires 100, 600 900 more
tons of coal than it used last year,
The mines will produce all that is
needed, but the railroads cannot haul
it.
The railways say that they have
not cars enough.
There is but one way to do the
trick:
Keep the cars on the jump. Make
two cars do the work of three.
Avoid the delay incident to "hold
cars by having them billed direct to
the unloading track. If this is not
possible, by all means advise the
agent at destination the disposition of
the car before its arrival.
Unload all coal cars within "a
hours. Work your forces double
shift, day and night. if necessary, to
release them.
Time your orders SO that you will
receive no more cars than you can
properly unload within that time al
lowance.
Notify the railroad agent or yard
master as soon as a car is made emp
ty. If within 10 hours the car is not
moved, enc the notice, and advise
the trainmaster.
Ii for any reason, due to unexpected
complications, you cannot use the coal
on a siding or in transit, notify the
county fuel administrator, so that he
may arrange with the shipper to have
same diverted.
If you have more coal of proper size
for domestic use than you can dispose
of in three weeks, notify the state
fuel administrator so that he may ar
range with retail dealers to take sur
plus tonnage to meet urgent demands
of householders.
You can do no more patriotic serv-
ice than to expedite the movemnt of
coal cars. An hour saved may mean
a ton of fuel to some needy house
hold.

Federal Fuel Administrator for Cod
ington County.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6-Beaten back
TO the Vesle River and presenting a
shaking front at numerous other points
on the great west front line, Germany
in the opinion Of offlcials here, must
soon make some reckoning to her peo-
pie.
II is believed here that she will do
one OF three things-attempt to dig in
and set up a bitter defensive front or
attempt a new offensive at some other
point in the line after she has had an
opportunity to reorganize her forces
and simultaneously with either, launch
the first nf a series Of progressively
attractive peace maneuvers.
That she is in no condition to start
a successful offensive action anywhere
now is the conviction here. The Brit
ish are stronger than in many months.
The Americans and French are demon
strating their increasing effectiveness.
Hence 1t would appear that Ger
many's best play would be to settle
down to defensive warfare and try TO
gain peace before the great battle Of
the Allies'-the action to be launched
later to gain a decisive victory. over
the Huns. Every Allied nation is alert
to the subtle danger Of a peace man
auver. Lloyd George in his war ami
statement to England last
night warned OF the guile Of Ger
