SMALL CATCHES OF
TROUT YESTERDAY
Streams Too High for Best Sport, but
Conditions Likely to Improve by
End of This Week.

Despite predictions to the contrary
there was some trout fishing yesterday,
the first day of the open season in Yer
mont. On streams that flow through open
country and whose sources are not too
densely wooded venturesome anglers dis
covered to their great delight that at least
some of their favorite quarry had lived
through the famous winter of l9l7-l9lS.
The number of trout caught was not large,
for the reason that most streams were too
high, but those that were taken gave no
indication of especial suffering on ac-
count OF coal shortage or the rules of
the food administration. By the end of
the week it is believed that conditions
will be still further improved
County Warden f. H. Metcalf is plan
ming to put special signs on streams
which have been stocked with steelhead
trout. These signs will call attention to
the fact that steelheads must be 10 inches
long to be legally taken and that they are
easily distinguishable from brook trout
because of having no pink spots and
scales large enough to be noticeable All
the streams to be thus posted are tribu-
taries of West river

BrattlebOrO Manufacturers
Interested in JOnes's
Message
CONFERENCE TOBE
HELD THURSDAY
Plants Working on Less Essentials Must
Take "Pot Luck''-"Get War Or
ders,'' Is Advice Given by State
Fuel Administrator.

Brattleboro manufacturers will be in
Jones of Montpelier, state fuel admins
traitor, mas brought back from Washing
ton, where he went to attend a confer
ence of fuel administration officials.
My advice to manufacturers, if they
want to be sure of COAL" he says, SIS
to get war orders. Plants working on
war orders will receive 100 per cent coal
and 100 per cent cars. The less essentials
the word non-essentials is not a proper
term-must take pot luck"
Mr.. Jones has called a meeting of the
state fuel committee, the executive board
of the committee of public safety and
Vermont manufacturers at the state
house Thursday afternoon of this week
when he will state the situation very
plainly. 1t is expected that Brattleboro
will be represented at the meeting.
Mr.. Jones says that commercial enter
prses not engaged in war work must
get their coal as they can and must de-
pend on wood for fuel so far as they are
able to use it Il expect creameries, ma
chine shops and other plants working on
war orders to receive COAL" he said, but
for the non-war industries the situation
is not at all satisfactory. | want to have
these industries realize the condition now
so that there will be no surprise parties
later"
The coal situation is one of transpor-
tation," said Mr.. Jones. There is plenty
of coal, but the railroads cannot handle
the traffic"
Mr.. Jones advises householders to buy
their coal when they can and cut wood.
j Mr. Jones cited an instance of one
great coal road whose freight transporta-
tion was upwards of 10 per cent coal.
which is now carrying under 20 per cent
The road simply cannot carry the coal.
Railroads are taking an unprecedented
amount of coal to do their business, and
they are getting it from this road to the
exclusion naturally of commercial coal.

TO THE PRESIDENT
Later Will Be Prepared to Discuss His
Voyage-Has Pride and Confidence in
Achievements of U. S. and Allied
Troops Abroad.

AN ATLANTIC PORT, April l6.-Sec-
rotary of War Baker arrived here today
from Europe. He said he would go to
Washington at once. He returned to
America on one of the largest steam
ships which flew the German flag before
the United States entered the war
Mr. Baker said he would be prepared
to discuss later his voyage to England and
France, where he conferred with the al
lied leaders and Gen Pershing and as
sembled military facts to present to Pres
dent Wilson
Il returned with a sense of pride and
confidence at the achievements of the
United States and allied troops abroad
that would justify many trips across the
water, Secretary Baker said as he
stepped aboard train for Washington.
Mr.. Bakers companions said they die
not doubt that they reflected his feelings
when they said that there were complete
optimism and confidence among the peo-
pies OF the entente nations that the val
would be won
Mr. Baker was apparently in perfect
physical trim. His trip from Europe has
been undisturbed by submarines. Tn,
weather had been ideal.
Accompanying him were Maj. Gen. W
NJ. Black, chief OF engineers, T. S. A,
Col H. l.. Brett, ardnance department

Every Americans Duty.

TO work, economize and lend money to
the government is the duty of every
American.
Hundreds of thousands Of our men
have been called to arms and taken away
from the productive forces of the coun-
try.
Hundreds of thousands of others have
been diverted from producing things used
in peace to producing things used in war
In the face of this lessened productive
force and production a great and unusual
drain upon our resources Is made by ouI
army and navy and our allies.
Work and speed-up production to make
up for the lessened production; economic
IN consumption to lessen as much as pos
sible the drain upon our resources; LEND
your money to your government to prose
cute this war successfully.

SAVE FUEL IN COOKING.
Principal of Prominent Cooking
School Writes the Following.

Many people have not coal enough
Millions OF tons of coal are needed for
war work. The housekeeper's supplies of
wood, coal, electricity and gas must be
made to last as long as possible.
An excellent way to save fuel is not to
use it. Fresh or canned fruits for desserts
in places of cakes and pies; salads, nuts,
raisins. milk, cheese, punches, junkets,
and gelatins are uncooked foods that we
can use constantly Foods that require
simply to be heated but need no long
period of cooking may be used often
Milk soups, cocoa, eustards, apple sauce,
eggs, broiled fish, and tender meats also
come in this class. If the oven has to be
used for one dish, then plan to cook the
whole meat in it If a roast of meat is
on the menu, the potatoes may be roasted
in the same pan, scalloped vegetables may
be baked, loaf of quick war bread may
be made, and dessert that can be cooked
in the oven at the same time. Ovens that
can be set over a gas burner do excellent
work for a small family. ."-Woman's Home

diers Are Being Retained
in the Army Ranks
STATEMENT MADE
IN THE REICHSTAG
Deputy Ryssel Declares That Germany
Is Hard Pressed for Man Power and
Like Dogs.

NEW YORK, April l6.-Germany is SO
hard pressed for man power that per-
manently disabled soldiers are retained
in the army and cripples are called to the
colors. This statement was made in the
reichstag by Deputy Ryssel, an independent
Socialist, on Feb. 23, according to Ger
man newspapers received here.

that the men in question could not be
withdrawn because they could not be re-
placed He added: The resolution
adopted by the reichstag two years ago
providing for the discharge Of persons
permanently sick ard unfit for service is
not being acted upon. A man who had
been stricken three times with apoplexy
was accepted without examination as tit
for service in the HusSar regiment The
soldiers IN general complain of insufficient
| and bad food. Many officers eat as much
I as they like while the soldiers receive
! bad meat There are now troops who
have been named Hunger company. In
| many instances a furlough may be bought
| It Is granted to persons who have sub
scribed to the war loan Those undesir
able politically receive no furloughs. Sol
diers belonging to the Socialist party are
treated like dogs

IMPORTANT RAILWAY TOWN OF

and Ypres Regions Indicates that British Will Make
Determined Defense-Germans Paying Frightful
Price in Men, Washington Learns.
Tremendous pressure eXerted by picked fresh troops
in the desperate German effort to drive the British from
ridge has compelled slight retirement of the British line
on the northern side of the Lys battlefront.
The town of Baileu has been evacuated and the Brit
sh front withdrawn to line running from north of that
town to the north of Wuverghem and then to Wytschaee
Wyschaete occupies the highest point of the eastery
ridge system and the British have been firmly established
here since the early days of the offensive
The Germans through their push to the southwest
apparently in advantageous position to attack
it and their expected drive upon reported develop
ing this morning AS it forms the pivot of the British line
which bends here to the north extremely determined de-
fense of it is expected from Field Marshal Hags troops
Official reports record the repulse of heavy German
attacks southwest of VieuX Berquin The German line
along the border of Neppe wood and is by push to
the northwest in this region that the enemy hopes reach
Hazebrouck five miles distant and take that highly
important railway town. Well nigh vital rail communica-
ons to the Messnes and Ypres regions would thus be
cut The British line is being strongly held in this region
however, and the fanking movement shows no signs of
making progress.
The German effort present centered upon the
northern side of the Lys battlefront important fighting
being reported from the southern sector.
