Munich, Jan. 25. Describing the
Bavarian food situation before the
Workmen's Council at a meeting last
night, Minister of the Interior Auer
estimated the wheat crop at 5.3O0O0h
tons, but declared that fully 100000
tons of this amount had already been
taken and not more than one-half Of
the remainder would be available.
This, he said, assured bread for the
entire empire only until Feb. Z.
The minister said he had reliable
information from abroad that the re.
cent disorders in Munich had affected
the possibilities of importation unfav-
orably, and had driven values still
further down. Dishonest dealing and
boarding, he continued, had added ma
terially to the difficulties of the stu
alton.
Potato deliveries had improved
somewhat in spite Of the fact that
great quantities had frozen when
workers refused to remove them from
the fields, and the majority Of cities
would receive from seventy-five to one
hundred percent of the usual supply
More cattle had been offered in the
markets that day, he said, than had
been taken, because the peasants
wanted ready money. This would re-
suit In shortage next spring, and
in consequence no increase in the
meat ration would be possible.
Milk delivery was somewhat bet
ter, but cheese was worse while the
production of butter was somewhat
behind last year. These features
coupled with boarding and unfail
trading, he asserted, made it eviden
that the fat ration must be reduced.
Minister Auer concluded with tn,
declaration that communal farmin,
must be put into operation as soon a
possible in order that production c
all farm products might be increased
since the low value of the mark mad
very difficult the importation Of foo
even if it were possible to buy foo
outside the country. When 1t was DOS
sible to import, however, he believe
the food situation for Bavaria woul
be materially bettered.

Florida Oranges Should
Bring Top Price

present has the handling OF only apou'
40 ner cent Of the citrus fruit Of inc
state. If 80 per cent Of the lruit
grown in Florida could be handed ny
tho exchange, it could afford 10 con
duct an advertising campaign that
would equal or eclipse that OF Gan
fornia and with the superior quality
of fruit marketed by this state, flofl-
da oranges would soon be bringing
the very highest market prices
DR., ]. H. Ross, president OF the
Florida Citrus Exchange, makes this
explanation of the superiority Oh tiie
Florida orange in a recent published
article:
"The climate Of Florida, in comDlna-
ton with the sandy soil, enables the
production of citrus fruits OF very
highest quality. The Florida orange
is noted for its sweetness. AS mat
ter of fact its sugar content IS pre-
cisely the same as in other oranges
grown elsewhere on the continent
Due to climatic and other conditions
however. the Florida orange does not
develop as high proportion Of acid
as it found in oranges produced out
side this state 1t is the absence OF
an excess of acid which makes the
Florida oranges so palatable.
A fruit so delicious and palatable
should be given the widest publicity
so that the world might know OF its
fine qualities and be given the oppor
tunity to try it and become its arden,
devotees. Only through organization
can this publicity be secured, and only
through organization and cooperation
can the top notch prices be gotten

should decide to help himself and hi
state by joining hands with his owl
organization, the Florida Citrus Elk
change, which is purely growers

and that to help the growers--Jack

It is a fact admitted by all those
who are familiar with Florida or
anges that they are the superior to
any oranges grown in the Western
hemisphere and even the owners Of
orange groves in California concede
that their fruit does not compare in
Juice or flavor with the Florida pro-
duct.
With this fact staring them in the
face many people wonder why it is
that the Florida oranges do not bring
as high prizes in many of the markets
as are paid for the California oranges.
In its issue of January 10 the Cocoa
Star had the following:
Something radically wrong about
the orange industry in Florida. While
it is admitted that Florida oranges
are better than California oranges, the
reports of the U. s. bureau of crop
reports show that in 1916 California
oranges sold for $2S5 a box more
than Florida oranges, 40 cents box
more in 1917, and 65 cents box
more in 1918.
The explanation for this is not so
difficult to those who are familiar
with all the circumstances surround
ing the marketing of the delicious
fruit which has made Florida famous.
More than two million people in the
United States and Canada read the
Saturday Evening Post every week
and in almost every issue Of the Post,

REFUSED TO AWARD
 MEDAL TO ARCHDUKE

VIENNA, Jan. 5.-(Correspondence of the Associated Press.)-On how little importance and significance were some of the orders and decora- tions bestowed upon princes and nobles during the war is indicated by little story now going the rounds in Vienna. It concerns Albrecht, the son of Archduke Friedrich.
 He was assigned to the front with a Tyrol Kaiser regiment, but with in structions to the colonel and com mander that he must never be en- dangered In 1917 the regiment had strenuous battle with the Italians at Schluderbach and suffered heavy losses.
 When the authorities looked over tue list of recommendations for dec. orations after the battle it was noticed tEat Archduke Albrechts name was not present. It was learned that he had been three kilometers behind the line duri; 7 the fighting. The colonel declared he could not cite him as one of his bravest, since it would make ill-feeling among the soldiers and was not justifable.
 An order then was issued command ing the colonel to recommend Albrecht | for the golden medal for bravery, and when the officer refused he was re | lieved from his command.

ATHENS LIFE NOT CHANGED
 BY THE WAR

ATHENS, Jan. 9.-(Correspondence of the Associated Press.) s.)-FeW large cities of the country that were en- gagged in the war have been less affect ed by it than the ancient capital of Greece. Free entirely from the men, acc of air raids and hostile lombard ment, and participating actively in the war for comparatively only a short time. Athens is today in all essential features exactly as it was in the pre- war days.
 There is scarcely any outward sign that the country ever was in the great world conflict During the en- tire progress of the war, all the stores, theaters, cafes, museums. and places of amusement in the Greek metropolis were doing business as usual and the inhabitants felt only remotely the ef- fects of the war. Prices of food and clothing were much higher than in peace times but the people suffered from no such scarcity of these and other necessaries of life as did the populations of London, Paris and other continental cities.
 The tourist, who at one time was one of the most abundant sources Of revenue, however, disappeared en- entirely during the war.
 The passing years appear on the whole to have made little change in the Athenian capital. If the visitor who knew Athens we'll in the days long ago could pay another pilgrim age to the historic city, he would see still the same quaint sights that have always made Athens appear to the foreigner rustic and unsiphisticated in the midst of all its cosmopolitan ism. He would see number of mich goats roaming down one of the main streets, picking up orange peel and paper bags in the gutter, while their owner drew the sweet warm milk from them to fill the bottles and pitch. CTS of the busy Greek housewives who emerged from their homes in response to the tinkle of the goats bells and the hawging cry of the fustanella-clad herdsman He would see also the countless little Greek gamins, dirty and ragged, that are so much part of the life of the capital and who shine shoes and sell lottery tockets.
 Another familiar sight would be the old women, thin, tanned, and bent with years, with black handkerchiefs tied under their chins, and carrying on their backs dilapidated hampers of wild herbs and salad leaves, which they dispose of to the abstemicus Greek householders of the neighbor hood for about 25 lepta 6 centsl a quart. Greek funeral processions, i'll which the body of the deceased is carried in an open hearse, fully ex posed and without coffin or covering are familiar sights.
 Other cities change with time, but Athens seems as immutable today as it was in the centuries that have gone Three wars within a decade have altered only slightly the life, char acteristics and institutions of the ancient city of HeIlas
