"WoRK OR FIGHT"
IN ENGLAND, TOO.

London, July 30.-A mobile labor
army to be used wherever the short
age of labor is felt, and consisting
mainly of skilled workers, IS being
formed by the government.
AS the man power employed on es-
sential war work is being depleted
to meet the demands of the army, the
government finds it essential to man
ipulate the remaining man power to
keep up and increase the output of
war industries.
An appeal has therefore been is
sued to all skilled workers now not
working in essential war industries to
enroll voluntarily and place their ser
vices at the disposal of the govern
ment. They will be transferred from
one industry to another only when
the national interest demands it.
A survey Of labor will be made, and
those found not to be working in es-
sential war industries will De asked
to enroll in this mobile army or give
reasons why such enrolment will en-
tail great personal harm Exemption
from service in the army on ground
of essential war work will be denied
those who fail to comply with the
governments request.

U. S. Gas sHARPs
FIND SHELLS Ben I
THE HUN POISON s

Washington, d. c., July 3o.-Uncle
Sans gas experts today regard gas
shells as the most important method
Of using gases in warfare.
Vomiting gas from shells is far more
effective than sending it in clouds out
Of cylinders.
Success is not dependent on the
wind, and there are no elaborate
trench preparations against backfire.
Ordinarily cannoneers fire the shells,
with long-range guns or trench NOR
tars.
The targets can be picked out with
accuracy. Gas shells, too, can be fired
over hills. where poisonous clouds
then roll into dugouts and rout gun
ners from their positions.
The Huns use two types OF shells;
some explode when they hit, others
have time fuses. They send over shells
with longtime fuses, then others
| with shorter fuses, which explode all
at once.
| Certain gas shells are marked IT,
i or TX" The first contain dense gases
| slow to disperse; the .K' shells de-
liver lighter gases that float away
| quickly. allowing assault troops to
| follow UP the gas attack.
Besides issuing masks, U. S. army
| gas specialists nave careIully INSTRUCT
ed Pershing's soldiers in other pro-
| tective methods. They have shown
them how to stop the Hun gases, all
heavier than air, from pouring into
dugouts and cellars.
/ Blankets are nailed across the top
| of the doorways of dugours and at
| tached along the bottom edge to
plank upon which the blanket may be
rolled up. When the gas warning is
| sounded these blankets are unrolled
and Sprayed with water or mixture
of water and glycerin to ensure air
/ tightness.
/ The men are also taught to clear
| trenches and dugouts after a gas at
tack. The men literally dig the gas
| out with big canvas blades that have
| the general form Of a snow shovel In
dugouts small fire of wood will dis
perse the poisonous fumes.

JAPAN THINKS DIFFERENTLY NOW

A Japanese business man speaks for his
country in the New Republic:
We believed at the beginning of the war that it
was caused mainly by the imperialistic tenden-
cies of the European nations. Therefore we
failed to entertain any righteous indignation to-
ward either side. We fought Germany for two
definite reasons-to get rid of the German base
of operations in the Far East, and to make good
our part of the compact in the Anglo-Japanese
alliance. We were not, however, and are not
now, interested in such an enterprise as changing
the form of the internal government of Ger
many.
The entry of the United States into the war
has helped to open our eyes to the deeper issues
involved in the struggle.
The United States is fighting for great ideals.
She has declared through the President of the
Nation that she desires neither territory nor in
demnity. Billions of dollars and millions of her
best men offered for the supreme test. True
democracy develops heroism of it's own, and
many of us who here appreciate fully what
is now taking place in this country. The United
States now commands the admiration of the en-
tire Japanese Nation, and dare say that this is
the best guarantee for friendship between the
two nations.

COAL SUPPLY GOOD
BUT ORDER EARLY
(ey gibson eARpNER).

Washington, D. c., July 3o.-FueI
Director Garfield is much encouraged
over the coal situation. II production
keeps up at present rates he says the
problem will be solved. There will be
no coal famine next winter.
But don't fail to order your winter
coal now. That Is the fuel admins
trations present and urgent advice.
If the coal man doesn't respond, keep
after him. He will respond, predicts
Garfield. before the snow flies.
For the first time in two years coal
is being mined in satisfying quanti-
ties. The week ending June Is saw
the biggest run of soft coal ever taken
from American mines. 1t came to
IL sos 900 tons. The week before it
showed 12,003.o tons and the week
ending June 90, showed yield of H.
45s.oo0 tons
The estimate of fuel experts put
the total requirement of soft coal for
a year at ss5 1000, 900 tons. With the
mines turning out coal at an average
of 1880, 900 tons a week 1t Is evident
that this total would be reached with
a small margin to spare.
Hard coal plays a smaller part in
the nations industries and the work
of the fuel administration Practic-
ally all hard coal is produced in seven
counties in Pennsylvania 1t has been
found possible to stimulate hard coai
production only about per cent and
this increase is only about enough to
take care OF the increased popula-
ton in the eastern states So an order
has been issued against shipping any
hard coal west of the Mississippi river
and against sending any considerable
amount OF hard coal into the middle
west.
The big problem is to get a winters
supply of hard and soft coal into New
England before the snow flies. If the
householder does not get his anthra-
cite. it is because the Goa; IS being
pushed into New England. II is going
by water and by rail-all that the rails
viii bear. Part-and a large part
must go BIZ water and the German
submarine scare interfered for time
with that work. but by december
there viii be enough 10 keen the fac
tories going and homes warm.

A CALL TO DUTY

From the battle fields in France there comes
an unspoken call that should find an answer in
every Americans heart. The recent great
events in Europe, the successes of American
arms on the fields of France should spur every
American to greater effort.
Our people at home should not rest on the
laurels of soldiers in France. Every death
on the field of honor in the line of duty and for
our country's cause should be call to US for
every sacrifice and every exertion to aid the
cause for which our soldiers are fighting, for
which our soldiers have died.
Increase production, decrease consumption,
save, and lend to the Government. Every cent
lent to the United States is used to support,
strengthen, and aid our soldiers in France.

FIND SUGAR SUBSTITUTES FOR BoTTLERs

FIND SUGAR SUBSTITUTES FOR BOTTLERS
Methods of reducing the consumption of sugar
in soft drinks have been worked out by the
bureau of chemistry, United States department
OF agriculture, which is now cooperating with
producers throughout the United States The
bureau has prepared directions for making soft
drinks which include formulas that utilize SUBJ
stltute sweet materials such strip (or-
binary glucose), corn sugar, maltese sirup BY
following these directions, which are being dis
tributed among bottlers the actual sugar con-
tents in soft drinks car be cut to so per cent or
less. A saving of approximately $4,000 tons Of
sugar annually, is thus possible it is estimated
and at the same time the customary taste and
quality of tn leverage be preserved 1t is
estimated that there 10000 producers of
soft drinks in the United States, employing p

NEXT DRAFT IS EXPECTED TO
BE CALLED EARLY IN APRIL
Equipment and Supplies For the Men
Will Become Available BY That
Date. Number Not Determined.

While war department officials re-
iterate that no date has definitely
been fixed for the calling of the sec
ond draft for the national army, all
available outward indications would
seem to point to sometime during the
month of April, or early in May.
Such an estimate is based on the
known preparations for euuipping
and housing the men. 1t is no mill
tary secret that equipment and sup
plies for men of the second draft will
become available soon after April /,
and careful observers look for the
first increments to be called soon af-
forwards.
The number of men to be called in
the first increment has not yet been
determined because the question of
housing them has not been disposed
of. There will be room for some of
them in camps and environments now
occupied by troops, and it is possible
additional environments may have to
be provided. 1t is also possible that
some of the national guard camps
may be used during the period.
The plans include calling 100000 a
month until the second quota is COM
plete.

Peaches" by w. w. Chase, assistant
entomologist, and of particular in
terest to peach growers.
These busting experiments were
begun by A. C. Lewis at Wellston,
Ga, in 1915, prior to the advent of
the self-boiled lime-sulphur solution.
Pulverized bordeaux and slaked lime,
crudely mixed, was used. Brown rot
was fairly well controlled, but all
leaves dropped off. The work has
since been taken up by Mr.. Chase
Very fine dust is used and good dust
ing outfits are obtainable.
In circular No q detailed results
of busting and spraying peaches in
1914-15-16 are given. In circular
No. "a are valuable hints on busting
which will aid those who will dust this
