Paris, Dec. German troops
wrich have been occupying Russian

dispatch from Copenhagen. One de-
tachment of 1900 men marching
from LODI, seventy-fve miles south
west of Warsaw, were attacked by
the Poles and only succeeded IN
reaching the German border after I'M
dergoing severe hardships.
The German Army of 100000 men
is being forced to march homeward
through snow and rain. The men can
not use the railroads because the Rus

WEEKEND BASKETS MARKETED
BY CLUB

One method which has proved
most practicable in bringing the pro-
ducers and consumers in this country
nearer together has been the~"week-
end" basket which goes from the farm
to the city dweller A home-demon-
stration club in Davidson County,
Tenn, is marketing its surplus in
these baskets. Ordinary peck bask-
cts are used for the purpose and vege-
tables, small fruits, eggs, cottage
cheese, butter, dressed chickens, etc,
are packed in them. In the begin
ming instructions in dressing fowls
for market was found necessary by
the ome-demonstratio agent, as few
of the farm woman had done this
work

OUR NAVY is TO HAVE
MORE STRONGHOLDS

Washington, Dec. 1.-Aerican nav
al bases in the Atlantic and Paclhc
Oceans and Caribbean Sea will be
measurably strengthened with surplus
equipment manufactured for the war
and now released or in process OF
release.
While the great fleet base in Hamp-
ton Roads has not been wholly com
pleted. it is well on the way toward
being the most extensive establish
ment of its kind undertaken by the
navy. From the navy's standpoint 1t
is one of the blessings of the war. 1t
is designed to take care of the entire
Atlantic Fleet.
In time a strong base will be devel-
oped in the Virgin Islands, and the
big Guantanamo (Cuba) base or rem
devious will be strengthened. The re-
lease of aircraft and other equipment
not longer required for war purposes
will make possible important develop
ments on our several Eases. This is
true of Pearl Island, Hawaii, Guam
an dthe Philippines.

GERMANY MUST PAY
TO THE VERY LIMIT

London, December All the ma
tions represented at the inter-allied
conference here may be regarded as
in agreemnt with the policy of Lloyd
George as to compelling Germany to
pay to the limit of her capacity. The
allied representative are also agreed
on the proposition of bringing to
trial those responsible for outrages
on humanity during the war.
1t is understood a general agree
ment was reached on the matters
deliberated on, but, out of courtesy
to the United States, in the absence
of Colonel House, it would be
necessary to acquaint President
Wilson in detail with the decisions
before they are made public.
Speaking at Bootle, Andrew Bonar
Law, the chancellor of the ex-
chequer, confirmed the statement
that the British government had de-
cided to press the allies as strongly
as possible that the surrender of for
mer Emperor William should be de-
manded, and that he should stand his
trial.
The chancellor also announced that
the government had appointed COM
mittee to examine scientifically into
the question of how much the enemy
would be able to pay. The govern
ment would propose such procedure
to the allies, and he believed it would
be adopted An inter-allied commit
tee would then inquire into the whole
question and decide what amount was
obtainable. Steps would then be tax
en- to secure its payment.
AS Colonel E. M. House, the Amer
lean representative, was unable to
attend the allied conferences in Lon
don yesterday and today, Mr.. Bonar
Law added, it was impossible that a
decision could be reached on any
point He was, therefore, now only
expressing the views of the British

PRISONERS IN GERMANY
WERE SADLY UNDERFED

Washington. Dev. S.-American
prisoners returning from German
nrison camps complain of seanty food
and bad housing conditions, General
Pershing has informed the war de.
nartment. but there is no evidence OF
discrimination against Americans nor
any authenticated report of brutality
toward them.
The war department issued the fol-
lowing statement, based on a cable
from General Pershing, dated Novem-
her %, and sent in reply to an inquiry
cabled by General March:
american prisoners released from
German prison camps complain OF
poor and scanty food and bad hous-
ing conditions. Only small percent
ape of those who are sick are hospital
cases. The majority are suffering
from slight colds and the prospect is
that all will recover rapidly with pro-
per food and housing. There is no evil
dence Of discrimination against the
American prisoners.
"Among 1000 prisoners OF all ma
tionalities who have been released
there is no authentic instance of bru-
tality against the Americans.
1.-The majority Of the American
prisoners state that the German SOL
diers also suffered food privations,
but that in cases where the supply of
food was insufficient. food for the
prisoners was cut off before that for
the German soldiers"

HOW THREE FARM BOYS WAX

One of the outstanding results OF
boys agricultural club work in Tenn

duced 144 bushels on his acre, an
other 139 bushels, and the third 12O
bushels, the profit from the 3 acres
being $464.64. This demonstration
wakened the father to the opportuni-

HEALTH TALK.
SPANISH INFLUENZA OR GRIE
BY DR.. LEE H. SMITH.

An old enemy is with us again, anc
whether we fight German or a germ
we must put up good fight, and not be
afraid. The influenza runs very briei
course when the patient is careful, and
if we keep the system in good condition
and throw off the poisons which tend tc
accumulate within our bodies, we car
escape the disease. Remember these
three C's-a clean mouth, clean skin,
and clean bowels. To carry off poisons
from the system and keep the bowels
loose, daily doses of a pleasant laxative
should be taken. Such one is made
of May-apple, leaves of aloe, root OF
jalap, and called DR.. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets. Hot lemonade should be used
freely if attacked by cold, and the
patient should be put to bed after hot
mustard foot-bath.
To prevent the attack of bronchitis or
pneumonia and to control the pain,
Anuric tablets should be obtained at the
drug store, and one given every two
hours, with lemonade. The Anuric tab
lets were first discovered by DR.. Pierce,
and, as they flush the bladder and
cleanse the kidneys, they carry away
much of the poisons and the uric acid.
1t is important that broths, milk, but
termilk, ice-cream and simple diet
be given regularly to strengthen the sys-
tenn and increase the vital resistance.
The fever is diminished by the use of the
Anuric tablets, but in addition, the fore
head, arms and hands may be bathed
with water (tepid) in which a table
spoonful of salaratus has been dissolved
in a quart. After an attack of grip or
pneumonia to build up and strengthen
the system, obtain at the drug store a
good iron tonic, called Irontic" Tab
lets, or that we'll known herbal tonic,
