WITHOUT BLOODSHED.

During the American operations
against Metz a German regiment un-
derwent an almost unique experience.
1t was thanked right and left stimuli
taneously and though ii might have
continued to fight it did just as prac-
teal thing in surrendering The
Americans could have massacreed il
or starved it without losing man.
Its colonel called the roll and ev-
cry man answered. He then sug-
gested to his captors that as his com
mand was SO distressing complete it
might as well preserve its organiza-
ton. and with its officers and non
CONS it marched, disarmed and under
escort, to the detention camp. The
only thing lacking was brass band.
The coup was accomplished by
Yankee quickness. The quickness
was made possible by flawless trans
portation facilities and equipment
These things make for bloodless vic
tory. And they cost money, $40. \
The amount called for in the new
loan appeal is stupendous. 1t is not
a case Of "Have you bought bond?"
but "How many have you bought"
But money means superior equip
meme and bloodless triumphs. Fighe-
ing with safety--so far as it is pos
sible--improves with organization.
Death and casualty rates have shrunk
considerably at the front. We have
seen s per cent go to 3 per cent

RED CROSS ITEMS
An Unpatriotic Fad.

You have probably noticed this
summer, the absurd and unpatriotic
fad of the sleeveless wooden sweater
adopted by so many young women
Absurd from the standpoint Of sea-
son-a wooden sweater over sheerest
midsummer dresses.
Unpatriotic from the only stand
point to be considered today-the
war.
The production of wool is insuffi-
cient for the needs of the army; and
the time taken to knit these unneces-
sary articles is time stolen from the
Red Cross, wheer they are pleading
for knitted neces J ties for our army
and navy.
Let us not be guilty Of using one
ounce Of wool that is needed by our
sailors on the frozen deck Of a battle
ship, or by our soldiers woh stand in
ice, snow, water and mud through a
dreary trench winter
Above all let US see that a member
from each family gives literally Of
her time to the work Of the Red
Cross.

$4,000 TONS OF NITRATE
DELIVERED TO FARMERS
DID NOT GET ALL OF SUPPLY
3
BOUGHT LAST YEAR

Washington, D. c., July 9O.-Despite
the shortage Of ships and two ship
wrecks, farmers received $4,000 tons
of nitrate of soda from Chile, bought
through the War Industries Board and
distributed by the United States De
partment of Agriculture, according to
an announcement just issued
The nitrate was sold and delivered
under authority of the Food Control
Act which authorized the President to
procure and sell nitrate at cost for
the purpose of increasing food pro
duction, and appropriated $40, 100000
for this purpose. The War Industries
Board was designated by the Presi-
dent to make arrangements for the
purchase of the nitrate and the Secre-
tary of Agriculture was charged with
its sale and distribution. The nitrate
was sold at SIS ton at ports, its cost
as nearly as could be determined in
advance Applications for more than
10000 tons, the total amount pur-
chased in Chile, were received by the
department in February, 1918. On ac-
count of shortage of available ship
ping it was possible to bring in only
$4,000 tons leaving on hand in Chile
between $4,000 and 10000 tons. Ships
have just been assigned by the ship
ping board for the transportation to
this country of the remainder of the
nitrate contracted for last year which,

In the face of ridicule and personal
