GERMAN OFFICERS
MUST WEAR UNIFORMS
Of Late Those in Coblenz Area Had
Worn Civilian Clothes Because
They Objected to Saluting
American Officers.

Ooblenz, Wednesday, March ) by the
Associated Press An German officers
and men on duty in the zone occupied by
American troops must wear uniforms
when they appear in the street. accord
ing to an order, effective Thursday, is
sued by General Dielman to-day. The
order is a result of tendency on the
part of German senior officers to wear
civilian clothes because of their dislike
to being compelled by a general order
issued some time ago to salute all Amer
lean officers. The Germans claimed that
it was very distasteful for German Off
GERS of rank to have TO salute American
lieutenants.
In framing the order, General Dickman
took into consideration reports that the
Germans were taking advantage of their
positions in being able TO appear in uni
form or in civilian clothes at will. The
new order also calls for weekly regis
tration of each German officer and SOL
der on duty in this area. Several hun
bred of them are attached to various
missions here and also acting as dis
bursting agents and in medical units car
ing for wounded German soldiers.
The Dusseldorf Nachrichten says the
grain deficit in Germany for 1919 is two
billion tons, and adds:
'The crop for 1919 would never have
been sufficient, but, since Posen, which
supplies one-tenth Of the grain produced
by Germany, has been added to Poland
the deficit becomes serious.

Hanna Halonen Versatile Creamery
Manager at Wardsboro.

Miss Hanna Halonen, buttermaker and
manager of the Wardsboro creamery, is
the first woman in Vermont to hold that
position and probably in the whole Unit.
ed States. Miss Halonen came from
Finland in 1900 and knew not word
of English when she reached this coun
try. Before her departure from home
she had taken a course in one of the
Finland government schools on butter
making and then for two years managed
a creamery in her native country. After
learning the English language and while
working in Massachusetts, in 1902, she
anwered an advertisement by the Wards
boro Creamery association and was en-
gagged to fill the place.
Miss Haloncn dressed in navy blue
boomers, white cap and apron and
wears rubber boots while about her
work, doing all the tasks about the
creamery herself, from taking the cans
from the wagons to making the cream
into butter, packing and sending it to
market, as well as scrubbing the floors
and keeping the place in such immacu-
late condition that inspectors consider
it the finest kept in the country.
But Miss Halonen does not allow the
creamery business to monopolize all her
interests, for she is prominent in vii
lage affairs, is the financial committee
of the church, lecturer of the Vermont
grange, past noble grand of the Colfax
Rebekah lodge and is serving her 18th
year as secretary and treasurer of the
Methodist Sunday school. Besides this,
she does much reading and lecturing for
the Finnish people in the neighborhood
She has procured a lantern and gives
them illustrated talks in regard to con
ditions in their home land.
The grounds Of the creamery are dec.
Grated with beds of flowers in their sea-
son and Miss Halonen two years ago
won a very handsome silver loving cup
which was offered by the Brattleboro
board of trade for the creamery in Wind
ham county which should make the
greatest improvement on the outside and
inside.

towards providing for library was on

| the Barre Civic Federation of Women's
Clubs saying that organization was con-

gift for the library; and the result Of
such effort has been that the ladies have
procured, and presented to the trustees,
the portrait of Mr., Leonard Frost Aid
rich, executed in oils by Mrs. Ruth Payne
! Burgess of New York. which now adOrns
the interior of the library.
On March ), 1908, the trustees entered
into mutual arrangement with the di-
rectors of the French's Barre library,
whereby those books be placed in the
Aldrich public library, and in the custody
OF its trustees.
On April rs, 1908. the city council of
Barre passed q resolution transferring

of Barre, and all that it may hereafter
purchase, to the Aldrich public library.
to be circulated within the city limits
After the property had been decreed to
them, the trustees ascertained there were
two parcels of land in Minneapolis Mimi,
the title to which was in Mr.. Aldrich
There had been litigation involving the
land during his disability, and probably
without his personal knowledge. It was
necessary to have his estate settled in
Minnesota; and, to get the affairs in
shape so the land could be sold, eonsid-
cradle expense was necessary in proper
ton to the value of the property; but it
seemed there was something to be saved
and the matter was taken up by the
trustees.
One parcel was sold in June, last, and
it is probable the whole property will
net the library $1,000. The farm came
to the trustees in May, 1908; and it was
sold at public auction for $l0,S00. No
other contributions have been received
except as stated; and the $ll 800 is all
that has been received from the Aldrich
estate, except property valued at 49,,
3S9.47, as per inventory stated, The
trustees placed $4,000 to the book fund;
they also have the Barre Entertainment
association fund Of $l,6O4.09; and the
bank building appraised at $4,000, the
income OF which goes towards the main
tenance of the library.
After paying the total cost of the
building, and improving the site, at $780,
35002; the expense of cataloguing the
books, supplies with which to keep up
winter, and all expenses to date, the
trustees have available funds as follows:

COOS HuNT TERMINATED.

Messrs. J. w. Cox, John Oliver,
Sam McCrary and Ed. Cole were out
coon hunting a few nights ago in the
section southeast of Columbus not
far from the Pickensville and York
vile roads, when their hunt was un-
tremendously ended by the whiz of
bullet from a Winchester. They
were IN a stretch Of wood when the
flash of gun was seen about seven
~ yards from them and the bullet
passed close to where they were
standing. Lights were ordered out
and the shooter was without a target
and no more shots were fired.
Now when Dr. Cox retired from
the Argonne forest he resolved that
he had heard enough bullets for one
life time and he suggested that the
hunt be adjourned instanter. In fact
he found that it had already been ad-
journed for his companions were al
ready sounding retreat.
Now whether it was a still and
the hunters were mistaken for rev.
enue officers, had never been decided.
In fact as DIR. Cox said "there are no
'coons in that section of the country
anyhow" and they have not investi-
gated further.

Food Value

due O1 TOOU
ItshouId be the food value that
determines the value of foods. Take self
rising flour, for instance. This product
is of varying grades, much of it selling
for the same or even less than the plain
flour, which in itself is evidence of the
fact that it is of inferior quality. Natur-
ally. then, its food value is less than that
of pure plain flour.
In the long run it really costs
more and represents waste. There is
no real economy in it. Some house
wives are under the impression that 1t

mistaken Self rising -four must often be Sifted
as it is inclined to get lumpy. The food value
of prepared -four is considerably less than
good grade of pure plain -four which is made
from better wheat and contains no cheap leaven-

plaster of paris often contained in the ingredients
used in self rising hours in order to cheaper

Thus the flour question serves

wise the economy of using various foods should
be determined in a similar manner. 1t isn't
