 The orderly rushed out when he heard the car, and l heard that driver say, For Gods sake take this thing away from me"
 It was horrible beyond description. l saw that poor fellow couple of weeks later, and he was bad enough to look at even then. He was walking around alone all right except that his face was continually twisting and twitching hor- ribly. His nerve was completely gone, and he was discharged almost at once. For all the shock he had his was mi raculous escape.

 explained this to him and said that I would rather take him. God knows whether it was true or not, but said 1t, anyway. While We were talking an- other cur passed US, and as my officer jumped in l resolved to follow the man who was now ahead of me.
 I noticed as the car passed us that there were two officers in It. One, a major was sitting beside the driver and the other, A colonel, was In the back. The car was about POO yards ahead of us, and I let him keep about that much ahead all the way up to the outskirts of the city. AS we got nearer the noise became deafening and the smoke began to bother us too.
 Before one enters the city proper one must cross n double line of railroad tracks. The machine ahead of us had just crossed these when a big fifteen inch shell screamed over and burst just beside the car in front. From where we were it looked as If the car and It's occupants must have been wiped off the face of the earth.
 stopped our car to wait until the smoke cleared away before going on. It seemed like hours before we saw the spot again, but when the smoke was finally gone you can Imagine our surprise at seeing the car turned com pletely around and coming toward us.
 The chauffeur was gathering speed all the time and when he passed us his car was going at fairly decent pace. We had time enough, though, to see one of the most horrible sights that l witnessed during the whole time l was at the front
 The car itself was in awful condi- lion. The two rear doors were torn away, the body was full of jagged holes, the front and rear mud guards and the running board on one side were torn of and the wind screen had been swept away.
 The major, who was sitting with the driver. had his head and the whole side of his body torn away, and the rest of him was leaning on the driver, who was being covered with the blood which was gushing from this awful thing beside him. The colonel, who had been sitting in the back of the car, was curled over on the seat, and his head and part of his shoulder were ly- ing in a pool of blood in the bottom of the car. To me the most terrible part of 1t was the driver. He was as white as a ghost, and his eyes seemed to be sticking an inch out of their sockets. His teeth were barred, and his whole face was twisted into the most hellish expression one could imagine.
 Good God, he's gone mad" cried my officer. And was sure of 1t. The off, cer ordered me to turn around and fol- low him and to catch him if possible. The car was away down the road by the time got turned around, but set out after him for all I was worth. |

When wa' saw that the driver was being taken care of we started back to make our attempt to pass through the burning city.
 As we got nearer the city I seemed to have lost all feeling of fear, and in fact didn't have any feeling at all. .-

 Called Oy Boards-Other Notes.
 During the sugar shortage of the last few months the question of sub stitutes has come to the front, but mast of the suggestions to relieve 1t have been rejected because of the cost. Honey is open to the same objection, if bought from the stores, but there is no reason why anyone with a back yard cannot keep d hive of bees and ecure honey in abundance at a very mall expense.
 To encourage the production at Aoney the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment station has issued d bull etin entitled Bee Keeping for Con- aecticut," consisting of "A pages and numerous illustrations. It is especial invaluable to the novice in beekeeping.
 First, equipment is considered; the pest beehives are described in detail, with the construction and use of the various parts; mention is made of a few necessities, such as tools, smokers, veil, etc, each one being pictured. Then the question of stirring with the bees is taken up; an account is given of tho colony and work of each ele- ment; of the different races of the bees and their characteristics; the To- eation of the hive, swarm control the production of comb and extracted honey and the principal honey plants. Several pages are devoted to the dis eases of bees, especially European and American foul breeds, as we'll as their prevention and treatment.

BIG CORN CROP
is NOW MOVING
More Than 5000 Million Bushels
Raised in 1917-Gives
Big Surplus. 4
SAVES WORLD FOOD SITUATION
America Beginning Greatest Corn Con-
sumption In History, Using Cereal
in Many Delicious Dishes.

Corn, Americas greatest cereal crop,
is now moving rapidly to market.
More than 5000 million bushels
30 bushels for every man, woman and
child In America--were raised In 1917.
1t was mighty crop. The actual in
crease is about 500 million bushels.
And this extra store Of grain Is COM
Ing on to the market In the nick Of
time, since the american wheat sur
plus has been sent to help feed famine
threatened Europe.
Just as 1t happened in the Colonial
days, the War Of the Revolution. and
the Civil War, corn has actually BE-
come the nations mainstay.
In the entire list Of Americas food
commodities there Is no item that 10
better than corn. In puddings, bread,
corn pone. and as hominy combined
with meat or eggs. corn is without .
peer. Housewives are fast learning
the large number of delicious dishes
that may be made with corn and their
families are benehting by an increas-
ed use Of the cereal. Corn, more than
any other cereal, contains all Of the
elements essential to maintaining life
and health.
In order that the fighting men
abroad and in the army camps at home
may be fed, and in order that actual
famine may be kept from the nations
associated with America in the war,
the citizens of America are finding
corn products delicious and palatable
on "wheatless days" and glory In the
fact that "wheatless days" here mean
more wheat for the war worn allied
nations In Europe.
England, France and Italy must be
fed from Americas great storehouse.
They will get some corn-especially
Italy-but most Of their grain ship
ments must be wheat Their ability
to use corn 10 small compared to the
facilities they have for using wheat.
And 1t is the opinion Of Dofhcials In
Washington that the present 10 NO time
to try and change the eating habits Of
Europe. YGTGg IHEtq
Americas greatest use Of corn will
be In the form of corn bread and corn
meal: mixed with wheat in the making
of aearened bread. buDt PC Tp7lC
Mixed with 80 per cent. wheat dour.
corn meal can be used In bread max
ing, producing 4 loaf. more nutritious
than bread baked with wheat alone.
1t II a fact corn millers will verify
that dozens OF the large American bak'
ers have been successfully using a corn
-four In bread making for several
years.
Hominy grits. served at breakfast
with a poached egg. or eaten at any
other meal with meats or gravy, Is an
other use of corn that will become un'
usually popular during the war.
Corn syrup to sweeten corn cakes
and corn oil for use In all kinds OF
cooking. are two more products that
nre already welcomed in thousands of
American homes.

war Bread COSTLY TO
: BRITISH GOVERNMENT

Every year the British government
pays S2OO.OOO,OO0 toward the cost Of
that nations war bread. That Is the
principal reason why English bread
prices are lower today to the consumer
than In America Incidentally the
British bread Is much poorer than the
American.
Great Britain has taken over all
home grown grain, bought at an arbi-
trary price, and all imported wheat
bought In markets Of the world at pre-
vailing prices. This is turned over to
the mills by the government at price
that allows the adulterated war bread
loaf of four pounds to sell at 18 cents.
The two pound loaf costs 8 cents, and
the one pound loaf sells for cents
In milling, however, IA per cent.
more -four Is extracted from the wheat
than In America. And there is COM
pulsory adulteration of 20 per cent.
and an allowable adulteration Of 80
per cent.
Compared with American bread. the
British product is only about 65 per
cent pure at Its best
In France, under conditions some
