On the Frying Pan

The entente and Germany in a battle Of diplomacy
for Holland and if recent history is worth as cr-
teron Holland is going to do pretty much Germany
sires Since the beginning Of the German diplomacy
has won the victories, in instance, a very i'm
portant one-the forcing Of America into the war.
Holland is crammed with Teuton propagandsts, much
of her has been bought up by Germans she is almost
wholly dependent Germany for fuel and it is likely
that she would have materially favored Germany long ago
had not been that breach of neutrality would inn
mediate loss of all her colonies.
Holland could give to Germany 100000 5OO,O 900
trained soldiers almost right the spot Of the big conflict
raging. She could also give Germany and
important advantages in the U-boat warfare
Holland is of the nations that might be decidedly in
uenced by threat of trade boycott She has big sources
of wealth in Java Sumatra, Dutch Guinea and the West
Indies and export trade in certain commodities that
enjoys almost exclusively.
Watch Hoand She may become another Rumania.
Whatever she does will be most important.

BARNARD KING
I5SUMMERPE5T
Food Administrators Say
Put the Rooster in the
Dinner Pct.

Philadelphia, Pa, July 3.-The king
OF the barnyard, the rooster, has been
consigned TO the dinner pot by the
food administration here. He is a
nuisance in the summer and inter
feres with the work Of the egg fac
tory. says the food administration.
Fertile eggs are more likely to spoil
iu the summer One-quarter Of all the
eggs produced during hot weather
are spoiled; 40 percent lose much OF
their food value.
"a doubtful egg is a bad egg" said
senator ingalls, long ago. and so the
food administration is on the trail OF
the doubtful" eggs. il is hoped that
spoilaEo can be reduced this summer
with a consequent saving TO consumer
and increased profits to- dealers by
killing ROSTERS, better Gambling and
better handling.
