Austria Said to Be Worse Than Mex
 ico In Palmiest Days
By Associated Press

Vienna, September 2.-Gun running and arms smuggling has become a bigger trade in Austria than it was on the Mex ican frontier in Villas palniest days
 The country is full of military material while Hungary, Poland and Jugo-Slavia are munitions hungry and the result is to make market so tempting that the risks are disregarded. If the socialist organs are to be credited however, at least some of the trade is done under the auspices of certain entente governments as well as the conservative element of the Austrian government.
 Within the last few days the police made known that they had discovered an organization for running military ma- terial into Hungary and made two ar- rests. One of the men was an employe of the Wolersdorf munitions factory government plant. Workmen's council lors have good organization and are constantly on the watch for railway shipments of arms and cartridges, but in one government office it was admitted that for every carload detected and stopped nine got away over the frontiers

classes had been previously carefully in spected by American officers abroad and officials at the department declared that they did not expect the inspection of the cruiser Osfresland and the desToyers al- located to this country to develop any i'm portant new construction methods in the American navy.
 In one respect the German ships won the praise of many officers at the depart- ment. This was the use of solid water tight bulkheads between subdivisions of the hulls below decks. No doors for com munication below were found in the Ger man ships, the members of the crew being forced to go up and over to move from one compartment to another.
 1t was this construction that kept Ger man vessels in the fight at the battle of JUtland after they had been severely pun ished by British fire, officers said. The idea has been advocated by a school of American naval officers for yeaiN and been adopted in the new vessels to the ex- tent of placing solid bulllheads between fire rooms
 Opponents of the solid bulkhead theory declare ease and rapidity of communica- tion below decks to be mode valuable than elaborate precautions to prevent the pas sage of water from one compart- ment to another in the event of hits below the water line.
 A feature of the German ships that Somewhat surprised American officers was the lack of provisions for the com fort of the crews. Officers quarters were found to be about on par with those in the American navy, but little attention has been paid to the enlisted men. The larger ships had cooking accommodations for but a small part of the battle crew, it was said, and it was believed that the ships were constructed on the theory that any engagement they participated in would be within short distance of the home port probably in the North Sea, as the bunk capacity were very limited.
 During periods of inaction the men were housed ashore in barracks and during pc riods at sea of any duration they were poorly supplied with hot food. Contrasted with the elaborate galleys and bakeries on American ships, with provisions for long cruises at sea away from supply bases, the German craft were primitive, it was said.
 The final disposition to be made of the German vessels has not ben decided. They will either be broken up al navy yards or used as targets for the fleets.

POSTAGE TO ARGENTINE
By Assnciated Press

Buenos Aires, August 25.-Failure of the majority of North American manu- featuring and exporting concerns to place sufficient postage on the letters they send to Argentina is one of the de- tails which is tending to cause an un- favorable opinion here of American busi- ness methods, says the bulletin of the United States Chamber of Commerce in Argentina.
 The bulletin is convinced that at least % per cent of the letters sent here from the United States bear a two-cent stamp instead of the fivecent postage required This means that the recipients not only are obliged to pay the additional three cents but a fine imposed by the Argen- tine postoffice regulations equivalent to the deficiency or a total of six cents. Many circulars and selling letters come with the two-cent stamp. and "it may be readily understood how annoying it is to Argentine firms to have their corre- spondence treated in such a careless manner"
 The bulletin also comments upon "the lack of even rudimentary knowledge Of geography shown by some American concerns in addressing letters. It cites the instance of an important letter ad- dressed by the chamber of commerce of one of the largest American cities to the stock exchange in "Buenos Aires, Bra zil' The ignorance displayed of a city of nearly 100000 population is, ito say the least, not especially flatterng to our Argentine friends, who are very proud of Buenos Aires as being the metropolis of South America"

LEARN LITTLEFR
 GERMAN U-BOATS
Present American Vessels Are Superior to Those Captured
 During the War
By Associated Press

Washington. September 25.-Detailed examination of surrendered German It. boats built during the war has produced nothing to forecast important changes in American submarines. officers at the navy department assert. After careful study of the German craft and d thorough test in the long cruise across the Atlantic Amer ican experts have found only few unm- portant details worthy of incorporating in new American undersea craft.
 In periscopes and optical fittings the German boats were superior to pre-war American sUbmersibles, it was admitted. Feriscopes on new navy submarines, how ever, are superior to the best similar fit tings found on the captured vessels, it was said.
 The engine equipment of the German boats was praised by American officers, but it was declared that the mechanical rlants of the enemy craft were in no respect superior to those already in use in the United States navy. In many points, particularly that of mechanical simplicity, roominess and comfort for the crew, the American boats are regard ed as superior to the German craft

 The allied control commission has is- sued an order prohibiting the further sale of goverpment-owned arms or mu- nitions Or that in possession of private concerns organized to trade in demobi- ized material. Many of these concerns were made up of the members of the of- fieaal demobilzation commissions who sold to themselves.
 There seems little doubt now that a recent raid on the Furstenfeld arsenal was the work of former Austrian off cers now in the Austrian Legion of the Hungarian army, aided by Hungarian officers. later raid on the Hartberg arsenal seems to have been done bv neighboring peasants. They are said to have been inspired by the threats of the workmen to raid the farms for food.

Berlin, September S.-A special com mission appointed by the former min istry of war to audit the books of the Daimler Motor Works has issued a re- port which charges the firm with con- cealing profits exceeding 96,Oo0,000 marks.
 It is estimated the the annual balance sheets of the firm during the four years of war production failed to include more than S1O00,O00 marks profit, which is more than tenfold the Amount of its capital.
 The report states that on the eve ot Germanys big spring offensive in 1915 the Daimler Company, which was one ot the country's chief suppliers of war ma terials, threatened to shut down it's plant unless the ministry of war awarded it q liberal price and increases.
 The plant was then placed under mil!- tary supervision and it's director removed from office but, the commission reports, Captain Gross, who was supposed to su- pervise the military control, was elected into the company's directorate and en- trusted with the management of the plant

A Good Drink for the Summer
e Buttermilk.

Columbia, Mo-, July 1o.-The term
buttermilk has for many years been
applied to the product left after
churning milk or cream and abstract
ing the butter, says DR.. NJ. p. Raw
enel of the School of Medicine OF tie
University. In the last few years
new kind of buttermilk has been
placed on the market which is rap

iudice exists against these manulac-
tured buttermilks, but as an actual
fact they are cleaner and better SUIT.
ed for food purposes than the old
product was under ordinary condi-
tons. The new buttermilk has
sharper and cleaner taste, largely due
to the fact that the acid is developed
more rapidly, and from known
germs.
Butter manufacturers do not de-.
pend on the accidental souring OF
milk as much as formerly, but use
pure culture starters as they are
called. So in manufacturing the but
termilk we add known germs to clean.
skinned milk, and produce all artiti-
cal buttermilk which is extremely
pleasing to the taste of most people,
and is freer from dirt and adventiti-
GUS germs than the old product was.
Slightly different methods exist,
but the following recipe represents
the newer product, and will show the
people what they are drinking when
they take the manufactured butter
milk:
One gallon of milk is added to 20
gallons of skinned milk as soon as
at has been separated. This IS not
necessary, but is done because most
people like to see some signs OF but

whole quantity of milk is kept ut 20
degrees F for six or seven hours. IT
will be found to have curdled. 1t IS
then churned for one-half hour, and
should be bottled at once and cooled
to 50 degrees or below to prevent the
further development of acid and
separation of whey. 1t is finally
strained through cheesescloth to re-

smooth product.

with high food value, and as sum-

BUMPER CROPS IN SIGHT
Heavy Harvest of Principal Products
Forecast in Report

Washington, July e.-Forecasts of
heavy harvcsts ot the coun,i: S pm
cipal crops marked the July report
of the department OF agriculture to-
Gay. The prospet tive yield IN most
instances is large. than the average
pi.,,ue ton for the live Years, 1914
1913, while tobacco and rice produc-
tirn promises to DE IL" largest III
record, tobacco with liz million
bounds more than the previous larg-
est crop ard rice with ii million
bushels more than ever produced.
Compared with last years output,
this years winter wheat, rye, corn,
sweet potatoes, peach and hay crops
give indications of being smaller.
Larger crops than last year are fore
cast for spring wheat, oats, barley,
white potatoes, tobacco. flax, rice and
apples.
Throughout June better weather
conditions increased the prospect OF
the output of every crop. The i'm
provement was reflected in forecast
OF 2S million bushels more i'll the COM
bined winter and spring wheat crop
than estimated month ago; mill
ion bushels more oats; 3 million
bushels more barley, and two million
bushels more rye.
The spring wheat crop is larger
than last years by Sc million bushels,
but the winter wheat crop is ia mill
ion bushels smaller, although it is
only IS million less than the 5-year
average production. i.
Wheat of last years crop remain
ing on farms July l was reported as
10000 bushels or more than per
cent OF the crop. That added to this
years prospective production makes
available $50 million bushels of wheat
which, according to officials, will be
ample to meet domestic requirements
and leave surplus for exports.
The condition of the corn crop was
reported not SO good as year ago,
bat the area planted shows an in
crease OF 900 acres. Indications
are that the crop will be 1873 million
bushels smaller than last years, but
70 million bushels larger than the $
year average.
