World's Foremost Artillerist

Worlds Foremost Artillerist
General Felipe Angeles was class
ed, before the great war, as one of the
worlds foremost aItill llerists. He had
obtained considerable fame as an ar
tillery commander IN the Mexican ar
my under the long regime Of Presi-
dent Diazz and cast his ,prtune waul
Francisco I. Madero in the revolution
by which Madero seized the Mexican
presidency. Subsequently General An
geles enlisted his skill in support of
the cause Of Francisco Villa against.
the Carranza government and was
credited with planning many Of the
battles Villa won.
Both friends ant enemies of Cen
eral Angeles have declared that he
was an unselfish patriot and that his
hope was to bring about peace in Mex
leo.
He was successively student, in
structor, and director of the Mexican
Military College, Chapultepec, and an
author Of several textbooks, not all of
which dealt with military matters.
Graduating from Chapultepec in
1892 he was assigned to the engineers
but later to the artillery corps with
rank Of captain. In this latter branch
he served as a member of several
technical commissions, was sent to
Europe to inspect artillery for the
Mexican government and while there
was graduated from the French mir
itary schools at Fcuntainbleau and
Mailly. He wrote textbook embody-
ing some Of his observations in Eur
ope and France decorated him with
the Cross Of The Legion Of Honor.
Angeles was barred from returning
to Mexico when Madero's revolution
occurred, but when Madero became
provisional president Angeles was re-
called and placed in command at Cha.
pultepec. In 1912 he was made q field
commander, already having been com
missioned as general, and command
ed troops in a campaign against the
bandit Zapata. In this service he is
said to have won the good will Of the
Mexicans by his humanitarian; poic.

injury done to the crop by rust, scab
and septoria blight the forecast pro-
duction has been reduced to 49,

increase in the acreage planted to
corn, this crop has been handicapped
by insects and wet weather at time
of planting, the condition at present
time is not discouraging. There is
about the usual acreage planted to
tobacco in the State, altho in South
ern Maryland, the crop is short. The
acreage planted to white potatoes
has been slightly reduced while the
acreage planted to sweet potatoes
has been materially increased; white
potatoes suffered from dry weather
during the blooming period. All
truck crops show condition from

President Wilson on Saturday
blocked repeal of the daylight saving
law by vetoing the Agricultural APP
probation bill carrying a rider for
that purpose, and at the same time
vetoed the Sundry Civil Appropria-
ton bill because it would limit the
appropriation of money for the re-
Mobilization and training of disabled
soldiers.
In vetoing the bill to repeal the
act the President states he believes
it would involve serious economic
loss. The act of March 10, 1918, to
save daylight resulted not only
from careful study of Industrial
conditions by competent men famil-
lar with the business operations OF
the country, but also from observa-
ton of the happy and beneficial con-
sequences of similar legislation in
other countries where legislation OF
this character has been for some
time in operation and where it has
resulted, as the act of March 10,
1918, has resulted in the United
States, in substantial economy. That
act was intended to place the chief
business activities of the country as
nearly as might be within the limits
of daylight throughout the year. It
resulted in very great economies OF
fuel and in substantial economy of
energy, because of the very different
effect of work done in the daylight
and work done by artificial light.
at moreover served the daily con-
venience of the many communities
of the country in way which gave
all but universal satisfaction, and
the overwhelming testimony of it's
value which has come to me con-
vinces me that should not be justi-
fed in acquiescing in it's repeal

Cost OF Road Construction.

The Baltimore American in COM
menting on the cost of road con-
struction states that back in the
times of the Crothers administration,
when the plan of building series OF
state-financed, hard-surfaced high
ways, was inaugurated, there was
shocked and rather resentful sur
prise in some of the counties when
it became known that the roads
would cost from $4,000 to $4,000
the mile. How cheerful it would
seem now if contracts to build the
stone-ballasted, ce m n t-surfaced
roads could be placed at the figures
prevalent during the Crothers era!
According to the recently publish
ed statement of Chairman Zouck,
contracts for road construction Tor
this year have been placed at ali
average cost of $4,000 per mile.
But, even at these figures road-build-
ing goes on. About $3,000,U00 is to
be expended on road construction, OF
which sum about 100000 will be
used within the present Limits of
Baltimore city.
Even with half the cost of future
bodybuilding betrayed from the
fund provided by the national gov
eminent, the cost of developing and
extending the states road system
will be greatly increased as com
pared with the costs of ten years ago.
This increased average cost is, how
ever, but proportional to the in
creased cost of practically every
other kind of construction work.

The Joy of Living

10 enjoy life we must have good
health. No one can reasonably hope
to get much real pleasure out OF
life when his bowels are clogged a
good share of the time and the
poisons that should be expelled are
absorbed into the system, producing
headache and indigestion. A few
doses of Chamberlain's Tablets will
move the bowels, strengthen the
digestion and give you chance to
realize the real Joy of living. Try it.

PACKERS GAINING CONTROL OF
ALL FOOD.
Report OF Federal Trade Commission
Shows Scope OF Business.

The report of the Federal Trade
Commission doesn't contain much
encouragement for the consumer,
who is already in torment about the
high cost of living.
The report alleges that. the "big
five" packers Swift & Co., Armour
& Co., Wilson & Co., Morris and Co.
and the Cudahy Compatibility
or separately WELD controlling in
terest in STA companies, minority
interest in 95 others and underter-
mined interest in ga total of 1852
companies and that they produce
or deal in some IT'S commodities,
largely food product, the report
gives this picture of growing packer
invasion into related and unrelated
industries:
SIN addition to meat foods, they
produce or deal in such divers COM
modities as fresh tomatoes and
banjo strings, leather and cotton
seed oil, breakfast foods, vim fiz,
curled hair, pepsin and washing
powders.
"Their branch houses are not only
stations for the distribution of meat
and poultry, but take on the char
acter of wholesale grocery stores,
dealers in various kinds of produce
and jobbers to special lines of trade.
'They have interests large enough
to be a dominating influence in most
of the services connected with the
production and distribution of ami
NAL foods and their by-products and
are reaching out for control, not
only of substitutes for other lines
into which the intergration of their
business has led them. They are
factors in cattle loan companies,
making the necessary loans to grow
ers and feeders of live stock; are
interested in railways and private
car lines transporting live stock and
manufactured animal products; in
most of the important stock yards
companies, the public market for the
bulk of food animals, and in live
stock trade papers on which growers
and feeders rely for market news.
"They are interested in banks
from which their competitor packing
houses borrow money; in companies
supplying machinery, ice, salt, ma
terials, boxes, etc., to themselves and
their competitors; they or their SUBJ
sidiary companies deal in hides, oleo,
fertilizer material and other crude
animal by-products.
"They are important factors in
the leather industry, in eleomar-
garine and lard substitutes, in cot
tonseed oil, in fertilizer, in soap, in
glue, etc.
Their activities extend on a large
scale into poultry, eggs cheese, but
ter. rice, breakfast foods, canned
vegetables, soda fountain supplies
and other lines.
THE reason why the packers are
seeking control of the substitutes
for meat-the foods that compete
with meats-are obvious. If the
prices of substitutes for meats are
once brought under packer control
the consumer will have little to gain
in turning to them for relief from
excessive meat prices,
Judged conservatively by trade
estimates. the Big Five handle at
least half of the poultry, eggs and
cheese in the main channels of inter
state commerce.
Recently the big packers began
dealing in various staple groceries
and vegetables such as rice, pota-
toes, beans and coffee and increased
tnelr sales at such rate that in
certain lines they have become fac
tors of great moment"
