BEES ARE HELPING.
Produce 250,OOO.0O0 Pounds of Honey
in United States Annually.

Washington, July 20-The little
busy bee improves each shining hour
just like Red Cross worker these
days, and he's singing the Kaiser
quite considerably.
About 25O,000,GO0 pounds of honey
are produced annually in the United
States, the Department of Agriculture
announces. This is an important con-
tribution to the nations food supply,
particularly in these days of sugar
shortage. The department urges an
increase in honey production of at
least 10 to 90 times the amount now
produced. The available supply of
honey nectar at presnt is only touched
by the busy bees.

Indians Ready to Fight.

Yakima, Wash, July 20.-Yakima
Indians, whose questionnairs are be-
ing received now by the local exemp-
ton board, are ready to doff war
paint and feathers for steel helmets
and gas masks. Of the Is question
naires returned only one called for a
deferred classification.
Many of the Indians not only waived
their claims for deferred classical
ton but asked to be placed in the first
group to go.
Of the 172 white men "newly weds"
whose missionaries are to be re-eX-
amined by the district exemption board
at Kennewick 81 men who made them
out have wives who are frail and I'M
able to support themselves. There
are % who have "war babies" and the
others have wives who are normal in
health" The high percentage of poor
health among the country's war
brides has led to an investigation by
the draft officials.

fixed amounts exempted from taxa
tion also was discussed, but sentiment
largely was in opposition.
Members of the committee eX-
pressed fear that with present rates
the $4,000, 100000 revenue planned
from incomes and excess profits could
not be raised. With this in mind, some
members suggested resort to con-
sumption taxes, but this was regard
ed as a last expedient. A slight tax
on cotton also was suggested.
On the assumption that nationwide
prohibition legislation now pending in
Congress- will not be enacted this
wear there was renewed discussion
of obtaining more revenue from beer
and other Intoxicating liquors. 1t
was suggested that direct tax on
gross sales in all transactions from
manufacturer to consumer would yield
$4,000, 100000.
The committee is carefully consid-
ering and freely discussing all sec
tions of the bill and it may be sew
eral week skkbefore any rates are fix
ed.

Charlottesville. Va, July 20.-A
regular grand jury of the corporation
court this week set precedent in
handling indictments for violations of
the Mapp prohibition law by going
fully into the evidence on both sides.
As a result they threw out nine of
ten presentments sent up from police
court.
The only one indicted was John
Davis, colored resident of Charlottes-
vile, who shot Prohibition Officer
Shelhorse On train in Alexandria
last month and is now held in jail
without bail on the charge Of murder.
He is charged in Charlottesville with
having transported an illegal quantity
of whisky in March.

DESPERATE SITUATION.

AnApTCpAFT psaare

Washington, July 20.-The most
daring exposition of the true military
situation yet printed in newspaper
Ct the Central Powers was cabled here
from Berne in unofficial dispatches
yesterday. The statement is printed
in the Arbeoter Zeitung, a socialist
daily paper of Vienna.
The report reads:
"That the Americans are transform
ING the situation against the central
powers is growing more evident IN a
uerceptible manner evey day. All OF
the latest reports are in agreement
that there is no longer any doubt that
a million Americans are today in
France.
"There genius in the art of organ
ization has obtained an amazing re-
suit which recalls the creation OF the
British army. All of the forces de-
barking nFrance today have been
raised, trained and equipped in a
wear and a half. The participation Of
the Americans in the struggle IN
creases to a gigantic extent the in
tensity of the efforts which Germany
must make. It is a fact without pre-
cedence in the history for Germany to
find herself today confronted with
three states whose population is three
times superior to hers and whose tai
ents for organization and economical
endorsements are equal to the organi-
cation and economical power of Ger
many"
"The Germans are maintaining their
positions but their is limit to every
thing, and it can be understood clear
ly why the Supreme Command of the
German army is striving to obtain a
final decision this year. 1t IS now a
question of doing this before the
United States is able to throw the
whole weight of her force into the
balance"
