WASHINGTON. March 27-Secretary
OF war Baker announced today that
he would leave for France about the
9th OF April. but would make q very
brief stay abroad.
The purpose of Mr. Bakers visit is
to give final instructions as to closing
the business obligations OF the Ameri-
can army in Europe. AS normally this
would require extended time. Mr.
Bakers decision to return at an carly
date is taken to Indicate that an ex-
ira session of Congress early in May

GERS and especially the chiefs OF the
army and navy, whose appropriation
bills will be considered first. Under
the circumstances 1t will not be sur

vessel.
NO NEWS OF SENDING
AMERICANS AGAINST REDS
In his talk today with the correspond
ents MT. Baker stated that he had no
or not the United States Army will be
used in checking revolutionary troubles
In Central Europe. On the contrary
gestions that any of the units sched-
uled for return should be held lie
ss said u@ that that the shipments for the month
or March would probably be greater
than those OF any other month. The
authorities say that about 100000 men
must be kept in Europe until peace is
signed.
All others have been promised a
return 70 the United States by July l.
It is thought by army men that IL.
there had been any intention on the
part of the President, or the inter
allied war council to demand the use
of American troops in Hungary and
vicinity the fact would have been COM
municated here by this time.
QUESTION OF DRIVE
SERIOUSLY CONSIDERED
There is no doubt. say these men,
that the question of the use OF allied
troops in Central Europe has been un-
der serious discussion by the inter
allied war council, of which General
Statements made by Secretary Baker
indicate that the 10000 American
troops in Siberia may be retained there
much longer tlan has generally been
understood. Mr.. Baker said that he
has never announced that these troops
would be ordered home in the Spring
President Wilson has ordered the re-
turn of the American troops in North
crn Russia. The War Department is
OF the opinion that the purposes for
which the United States Army was
sent to Siberia. namely the protection
OF the CIecho SlavS the protection Of
property at Nladvostok and the polic-
ing of the Trans Siberian Railroad have
not been achieved rs yet.

BRAZIL is PICKING UP

Brazil has been able TO export to
Europe foodstuffs which q few years
ago she was not able to supply to
herself. In the same way animal hus-
bandry is making strides which point
to making meat products one of the
country's chief exports. While Bra
iii has always been a cattle produc-
ing country. ii is only during the last
three or four years that she has been
looked upon as world Supplier. More
recently several large modern pack
ing houses have been constructed or
projected. These are financed princi-
paiIy by American packing interests.
In the last year the federal govern
ment. through the agricultural depart
ment, has devoted considerable atten-
ton to the Importation and purchase
of animals of pure blood. 1t is pro-
posed to carry on an extensive educa-
tional campaign among the live stock
breeders of Brazil to improve the
standard of cattle. For this purpose
the government intends to make lib

Flour from the cattailS of the

of which he has given an account in
the Scientific Monthly, Prof. l.. w.
Ciaassen tried the flour in several
ways. both as part substitute with
starch substitute for buildings. Bis
cults containing 30 and even 100 per

wheat flour alone, while the buildings
had an agreeable flavor and were sat

tanned from the large underground
rootstalks or rhizOmes. of which Ii
forms a starch core three-eighths to
one-half inch in diameter. The dried
rhizomes from an acre of cattails were
shown TO equal 1892 pounds and the
core substance. passed through a
meat grinder and sifted, yielded fine
flour mt the rate of $500 pounds per
acre. Many thousand acres of cattafl
marshes are included i'm the 139, $50

Il You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
1t is that so many products that are ex-
tenslvely advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfil
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says Take for
example DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root, a
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend. for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
Suits as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has SO large a
sale
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due 70 the fact,
SO many people claim, that it fulfills al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle of
Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address
DR.. Kilmer & Co., Binghamtons \. Y,
and enclose ten cents; also mention this
paper. Large and medium size bottles
