OFFICIAL CASUALTY
STATEMENT ISSUED
GENERAL MARCH GIVES OUT
SUMMARIES OF LOSSES SUE
FERED BY AMERICANS.
Total Is 56.5e2, Of Whom 17,434 Are
Classified as Missing ar Captured
Hundred and Eighteen Prisoners
Died In Captivity.

Washington. ---OffIcial tables OF the
major battle casualties of the Amer
can forces in France, made pub
lie February by General March, chief
of staff, show that approximately TO-
600 men remain wholly unaccounted
for nearly three months after the end
Ing of. hostilities. The deaths, miss
Ing and known prisoners are tabulated
up to January 10 for each OF the
thirty combatant divisions of General
Pershing's army. The total Is 56,592,
of whom II, 434 are classified as miss
Ing or captured. An appended state
ment shows that only twenty-nine
American military prisoners were be
lleyed to be still In Germany on jan
uary s, and that 1900 prisoners, had
been checked up as returned and lis
died in captivity.
Regiments S61st, 362d, 363d and
364th, Ninety-irst. division, made up
of Utah. Idaho, intermountain and Pa
cifc coast draftees trained at Camp
Lewis, suffered as follows: No. 361-
Killed, .277 died, 70; missing, 80; pris-
oners, 2; total, 466. No. 362-Killed,
210; died.. Ga; missing, 100; prisoners,

total, 81. No. 1874 Killed, s142; died,
Al; missing, 62; prisoners, 2; total,
247. -
Some portion Of the great body Of
missing men may be located as the re-
turn of the army thins out the Amer
lean force in France. Indications are,
however, that the majority Of the 49,
900 finally viii be added to the roll Of
honor In the tables of those killed or
died of wounds, now recorded as 3d.
1853 men.
To that figure, also, must be added
1851 men Of the marine brigade, figures
for which, not carried in the tables,
were obtained from official sources.
This brings the grand aggregate of
deaths from battle up to 407O9 on re-
turns estimated officially to be 90 per
cent complete AS figures on mlssina
and prisoners Of the marines are lack
ing, the number Of unaccounted for
which finally will be added to the roll
of the dead cannot be accurately esti-
mated. r
The army tables, however, give a to-
tai of 1869 men missingin action, and
27S5 known prisoners, making up the
II ,434 missing or Captured. The army
rolls record 491S American military
prisoners accounted for Admittedly,
there are many possibilities. of error,
but the statement says 1t is anticipated
that the indicated unaccounted for list
of 12,516 win be brought down to less
than 10000"

The Many Mysteries
of Nature
BY L. w. BOWER, M. D.

You can take an onion seed and pansy
seed, and plant them side by side in the
same spot of ground. In one case, you
get an onion, with its peculiarly strong
odOr, and in the other you get flower Of
rare beauty. You can plant poppy seed
and get opium Ia dangerous, habit-forming
drug, OF you can plant rhubarb seed and
get something that helps constipation, No
scientist, living or dead, can explain these
mysteries Of Nature. Behind the invisible
life germ in each seed is hidden the deep
secret that nobody understands Every
thing growing out of the ground seems In

conditions. DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y,
long since found out what is naturally beet
Tor women's diseases. He learned all
through treating thousands of cases. The
result OF his studies was a medicine called
DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. This
medicine is made Of vegetable Rrowths that

safe woman's tonic SO good that druggists
everywhere sell it,
Favorite Prescription should have the
full confidence Of every woman in America
because it contains no alcohol and no mar

10 the growth of the child and 10
the aealth of the adult.
If one but for a moment con-
sidered Milk on the basis of its
protein, fat, and sugar content.
and overlooked its growth and
health promoting substances and
its ideal mineral matter, it would
be found that Milk is a cheap food
even then, when compared with
most other staple articles of diet.
For example, veal costs about
twice as much as Milk for the same
food value; pork chops, ham and
shoulder, are more expensive than
four per cent Milk, while chicken
at 81 cents a pound is more than
fifty per cent more expensive, and
broilers at 80 cents pound are
almost five times as expensive.
Eggs at AS cents a dozen are about
two and one-half times as costly
as four per cent milk.
Fresh fish, such as salmon, hall
but and whitefish, cost about two
and one-half times as much.
OF the fruits only those that ara
dried are as cheap as Milk.
The same is generally true with
respect to the vegetables, except
potatoes. For instance, canned peas
at 20 cents a pound are about three
and one-half times as expensive as
four per cent milk, or in other
words, when they are 20 cents a
pound, il requires 52.5S cents
worth of them to equal one quart
of four per cent milk, which is
generally purchased for Is cents.
All these figures show that
MILK is an ECONOMICAL and
NOURISHING food, even at Is or
20 cents a quart.
This fact, coupled with the fact
that Milk contains certain sub
stances, called vitamines, which
are necessary for growth and
health. and mineral matter Of
splendid quality, should make ev-

FOOD VALUE OF MILK

Largely because Milk is a liquid,
many people have not considered it
necessary article in the diet, and
have either reduced their purchases
of this valuable food. or purchased
it rather reluctantly.
However, when its real food val
ne is known, it is looked upon as
the MOST NOURISHING of all
foods. 1t is a complete food, con-
tanning all the food essentials nee
essary for body activities, it's
lrctein is of exceptional quality,
and the fat in milk Contains q new
ly discovered substance, essential
in the diet, called FAT SOLUBLE
A. This substance has been found
to be indispensable to health, and
no child can grow and develop with
out it.
Furthermore, this substance Is
valuable to thr sduit IN promoting
health and vigor.
This growth ana health promot-
ing element is deficient in the diet
of one out of every three children,
who are thereby caused to suffer in
various ways; some children even
develop sore eyes and ricketts, and
other complicated disturbances
when they do not receive sufficient
amounts of this substance.
FAT SOLUBLE A is found most
abundantly In Milk, Butter. Cheese,
and Ice Cream; the fat of the egg
contains it. as also do the leafy
portions of vegetables to some ex-
tent. Milk and Dairy Products.
however, are the principal sources.
pr sherman of Columbia Uniyei
Sity saws thai the average Ameri.
can diet should consist of at least
twice as much Milk, Butter and
Cheese as at present.
DIR. MeCollum OF Johns Hopkins
University, the foremost authority
on nutrition. says that there are nc
substitutes for Milk and Dairy Pro
ducts as food; They are essential
