to put him through a series of grad

i July 19.-From the region west
Of scissors to- the northwest ol
Chateau Thierry. American and
French armies have begun strong
offensive against the Germans
which possibly may have marked
influence ON the future Of the
world war. In its initial stage
the movement has been rewarded
with great success.
All along the twenty-five miles
the French and American troops
have dashed In brilliant fashion
upon positions held by the Ger
mans, killing, wounding or captur-
ing thousands of the enemy and
taking towns, villages and large
quantities of guns and other war
supplies.
Nowhere, according to last ac-
counts from the front, has the en-
emy been able to stay the progress
Of the saillants, although counter
attacks were resorted to on some
important sectors after the first
stages of surprise, occasioned by
the unexpected attack, had worn
away.
To the Americans alone in the
region west Of scissors came 1000
prisoners, thirty guns and much
war material. Additional large
numbers Of captves and further
greater stores Of guns, ammuni-
tion and other war necessities
were taken by the French Be-,
fore all the positions Of the Amer
leans and the French their guns
and machine guns cut to pieces
fleeing hordes Of the enemy or
bands which endeavored to with
stand the Onrush.
The blow. probably long in prep
aration. is being aimed at terri
tory vital to the Germans terri
tory the capture Of which not
alone would mean the forced re-
tirement of the Germans from the
entire salient extending south

DRYING FRUITS AND vEGE-
TABLES WILL RELIEVE
GAN SHORTAGE.

With the nationwide campaign
for preservation Of food by can.
hning, the demand for cans and
glass jars will increase. The in
creased demand is already shown
by the soaring prices for cans and
jars. Those who are interested in
saving every product that they
produce will be faced by serious
difficulty If containers are not
available at the right time and at
reasonable prices. A most timely
solution to this problem is home
drying.
Drying offers one Of the most
economical methods Of preserving
food, and preliminary investiga-
tions conducted recently by Miss
Addie D. Root Of the University
Of Missouri College Of Agricui-
ture suggest that a wider appli-
cation Of drying is possible. She
has found that many fruits and
vegetables, which are usually
canned, may be preserved salts
factorily by drying. Sun drying
Of some products has been COM
mon, but the uncertainty Of the
weather makes this method un-
desirable. A cloudy day in
series Of drying days may cause
the product to sour. However,
this difficulty is easily overcome
by the use Of a simple drying APP
paratus, whereby the drying may
be done quickly and easily by
artificial heat.
A small fruit and vegetable dry
er may be used on the top of
stove or in combination with a
furnace out Of doors. 4 small
indoor drier may be purchased for
from five to fifteen dollars. How
over, it il not necessary to 60 this

expense, for one may be made at
home that will do the work just
as well and cost much less. A
very efficient apparatus can be con-
structed by making a series of
trays, about two inches deep and
as large as desired. with sides Of
wood and bottoms Of screen wire.
They should fit tightly one upon
the other. To prevent overhead
ing, the trays should be raised
above the fame or heated surface
upon which they rest by wood
EN- box, is inches deep, from
which top and bottom have been
removed. / The box should be
raised four inches by placing a
brick under each corner. This
permits free circulation Of hot
air up through the trays and thus
carries the moisture away from
the products. Any simple appa-
ratus which will combine a good
drying temperature with a good
system Of ventilation will dry
fruits and vegetables in a salts
factory manner.-Word and

1918 RICE CROP PRICES
RAISED 25c A BARREL
BY HOOVER.

Maximum prices for the 1918
rice crop have been increased %
cents a barrel of 1872 pounds by
the United States Food Admins
tration, according to authentic
private reports received here
Thursday from Washington. The
new schedule will establish basis
Of 81. 80 barrel for Nos. l and 2
Honduras, f. o. b. points of ship
ment, 1925 a barrel for Nos.
and 2 Blue Rose and 81 a barrel
for Nos. | and 2 Japan in the
rough.
Several months ago contrac:
was concluded between the rice
growers of the States of Louisi-
ana, Texas and Arkansas, the rice
mills of the same states and the
food administration. AS these
three states produce approximate
ly so per cent of the domestic
crop. it was generally assumed in
trade circles that the prices
named in the agreement were
final.
1t seems, however, that when
the proposition was submitted to
the California growers for their
ratification it was rejected. and
the food administration has since
been prevailed upon to add 25
cents barrel to the minimum pri-
ces agreed upon in the first in
stance.
Proportiopate increases will be
allowed the mills. Detailed fig
ures Of the new schedule for clean
rice have mot yet reached here but
President Broussard, Of the Rice
Millers' Association, advises that
the margin of profit allowed the
mills in the first contract will not
be changed.
Maximum prices for the clean
before the increase of 25 cents
bag in the rough was announced
were, S7s for fancy Honduras;
7ss for fancy Blue Rose and 67s
for choice Japan.

TAX WAR PROFITS BEFORE
LUXURIES.

The statement from Washing
ton that the house ways and
means committee will adopt the
proposed taxes on luxuries only ds
last resort is reassuring. 1t
evidently implies that the commit
tee will first view the whole sit
uatlon respecting the present in.
come and excess profits taxes and
see what can be done to improve
the revenue yield from those
sources.
Tax revenues under existing
law amount to about $4,0OO,W0,-
600, and $S,000,000,0OO is wanted.
1t is admitted by all that the first
subjects to be considered by war
taA es are war profits. 1t is ac-
cordlngly for the ways and means
committee first to consider wheth.
er the so-called excess profits
taxes are fully and justly reach
ibS war pIUlilS.
That they are not seems to be
generally understood in Washv'
ington. The president has stated
that war profiteering still -four
lshes. Large bodies of statistics
are being submitted to congress
which prove that war profteering
still fourishes. Senators and rep.
resentatives are daily delivering
speeches denouncing the profteers.
The government is charging that
the revenue has been dfrauded
In hundreds Of millions Of dollars
by the profiteers, who have been
helped at the job by the confu.
sions and uncertain exemptions
growing out ssof the attempt Of
the present law to tax excess
profits rather than profits aris-
ing from war conditions. whcih
can easily and definitely be de-
termined.
The Inference from all this IS
that the profits Of the war profi-
teers are not flowing into the fed
eral treasury as it was intended
that they should flow.
Just how large is this current
which is being diverted from the
treasury to private pocketsY The
facts have been made knDwable
to congress by The recent tax re-
turns, How to turn the whole
private profteering problem to
the profit Of the public treasury
in the prosecution Of the war these
facts must reveal.
If an extended system Of con-
levies upon Injuries, TO
also the finer qualities of
living necessaries, such as cloth
ng, is required to raise the need
ID increase in tax revenue, the
country will accept it willingly.
3ut it wants to know first wheth-
n the war prOfiteers are being
:axed as they should be.--New

that further large quantities Of

from the original starting line. At
Soissons the Americans and
Frenchmen came to within mile

twenty villages fell into the hands
Of the Americans and French all
along the battle front.

AMERICAN RED CROSS.

The word AutOchlr has been
invented by Americans In France
to describe an American motor
truck train carrying q special
type Of load toward the front. The
first syllable is plain enough; the
second is from the word "chirurg
ical, . the old way Of spelling
surgical. Combined they des-
cribe an American Red Cross
truck train of eighteen camions
carrying in knock-down form a
tent hospital Of 200 beds. One
truck transports a complete ope
rating room ready to be bolted
together and put into operation
In few minutes. Its trailer is a
sterilizing room which is backed
up against the operating room
structure. From this trailer the
nurse passes sterilized instruments
and supplies to the surgeons
around the operating table. The
other trucks carry double tenting,
framework, floors in sec
tions, window frames, heating
stoves and full equipment for diet
kitchens. Red Cross construction

trained for this work 60 with the
trucks and within very short
time after the first truck reaches
the selected point the wards are
ready to receive patients.
