''as expeditiously as human effort

OF investigation OF the department
OF Justice, who directed last nights
nationwide raids from this city.
Persons arrested last night have
been watched closely day and night,
he said, since the communist par
ty convention in Chicago, June 6,
1919.
Last nights roundup was the
largest and most successful ever
staged in this city, Chief Flynn
said. Operatives were given spe-

manner.

Answers to the daestf6lfs deter

Considerable difficulty was expect

After the examination those to
be held were segregated and their
pedigrees taken. The agent who
examined them then signed a
sworn affidavit to the effect that he
believed the person examined to be
a member of the communist party
and an anarchist. and to hold revo-
lutionary beliefs. In addition to
examining the persons arrested, de-

BEATEN AND
DISCREDITED
Steady Losses Lead to a
Coup Putting Roman
ovsky in His Place.

London, Jan. 3.-General Deri-
kine's government in southern
Russia has been overthrown and
General Romanovsky chosen to. re-
place General Denikine as anti
bolshevik chief. according to boil
sheviki advices from Moscow, quot
Ing advices from Taganrog.
The report indicates that owing
to defeats along the front, a coup
d etat occurred at General Deni-
kine's headquarters and that his
government has been replaced by a
group known as the "Vozsozhdenye
Rissie," meaning the Regeneration
Of Russia"
Result of Defeat.
General Denikine's fall is prob
ably a result of his recent defeats
by the bolsheviH in southern Rus
sia. During the past autumn the
Denikine forces moved steadily
northward, defeating the soviet
troops in many battles and appar-
emily threatening Moscow. After
he had reached Oral, 120 miles
south Of the soviet capital, how
ever, he encountered stern resist
ance which soon developed into a
fight extending over a virtually
continuous front 400 miles in
length.
Bolsheviki cavalry finally filtered
through the Derik,ne lines, break
ing communications in the rear and
forced the anti-sovfet forces to fall
back rapidly. Recent dispatches
have indicated the bolsheviki were
rapidly approaching the shore Of
tthe Black sea on the western END
of the front, and the Volga river
further east.
ROman0vsky From East.
General Romanovsky, who is re.
ported to have succeeded Denikine
may be the officer who has beer
acting governor and commander OF
enti-bolshevik armies in the fal
eastern provinces of Siberia. There
is no other Russian general by that
name in available army lists.

KENTUCKY CROP REPORT

The condition of Kentucky's wheat
crop indicates a probable produc-
ton Of about 6,ii3,OOO bushels this
season compared TO i2,029OOO last
year, according to the May crop re-
port issued jointly today at Frank
fort and Louisville by State Com
missioner of Agriculture, w. G..
Hanna and H. F. Bryant, Kentucky
field agent of the U. S. Bureau OF
Crop Estimates. Probable rye pro-
duction is estimated at $4,000 bush
els compared to $4,000 bushels last
year, and tame hay at 100000 tons
compared to 1861 200 tons produced
last year. Actual production this
season may prove greater or less
than these estimates, depending on
whether conditions are particularly
favorable or unfavOrable between
now and threshing time and hay
harvest.
Heavy reduction of wheat acre
age in Kentucky last fall, late SOW
ing, poor condition this spring and
abandonment of ii per cent of even
the reduced acreage that was sowed,
are the chief conditions warrant
ing such a low estimate OF the
wheat crop. Rye came through the
winter a little better than wheat,
but still much below average.
Wheat acreage left foT harvest is
now estimated at 6i8,0O0 acres COM
pared to 100000 last year; condi-
ton this month is n per cent of
normal compared TO 1903 per cent
this time last year.

with tomatoes. you can buy them
cheap, but If everyone is clamoring
for tomatoes and there are few TO
be had, the price goes up. Tho
same Is true Of Liberty Bonds.
Short-sighted people are dumping
them on the market, and wise ones
are buying them.
The best advice that can be given
to the owner OF a Liberty Bond ia
this. Hold the bond you bought
during the war; IL is as safe and
sound as the United States Govern
ment itself.
Buy as many more at the pres Y
low rate as you can afford. n you
hold them to maturity you are
bound 10 make the difference be-
tween what they sell at now and
their face value. You will also re-
ceive good interest on your invest
menl.
Hold on TO your Liberty Bonds
and biIv more.

PUFF YOUR OWN CEREAL

The high cost of living is doubly
high when the food is sold in fancy
packages. Some sane writer in the
southern Agriculturist offers the
following to help cut down ex-
pcnses.
Plant good big patch of pop
corn and cultivate il carefully so
you may be able to puff your own
cereal in your own home next win
ter. Pulled wheat or pulled rice can
be bought at groceries in fancy
packages at high price. Popcorn.
freshly pulled over a dull bed of
Goals next winter. has the same food
value as pulled rice or pulled wheat.
The popcorn, absolutely fresh, has
flavor that is infinitely better than
any pulled cereal in a package.
Children are fond of popcorn, so
let them have an abundance TO
munich on after supper during the
long winter evenings or fresh and
crisp as a breakfast cereal with
plenty Of rich cream and sugar. II
the reader has never tried this
cheap, everyday, NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.,
raised-on-the-farm cereal, he should
plan to plant good big patch and
allow the children to puff their own
cereal.

the laboring men gaining? The
high wages have taken our young
men from the farm TO the cities

what's the trouble? Why, the

almost impossible TO get room at

ally bid the farm good bye, and

INFLUENCE FOR GOOD DIGESTION

The flow of III the digestive Sc
crc'ions is dependent upon several
things. Perhaps the most important
is regular .ime for meals. 4 he

gc,tivc iu ''cs, and the supply Ger
responds 10 the demand. Also,
proper mastication is always n sig
nal to the secretions OF the stomach
and intestincs 10 he ready for their
share Of the work. The sight,
smell, and taste Of foods have a di-
rect effect upon the flow Of the
juices. Frequently one does not
feel hungry until one has whit
Of food being prepared for dinner.
Then the familiar gnawing feeling
NJ hunger becomes apparent. This
is a physiological fact caused by
the flow Of the secfetions due TO
the odor of food. The nervous
state Of the person has a direct eff
feet on the flow of the secretiOns.
Fatigue. worry, anger, all tend TO
rctard digestion, so that IL Is
far better for a very tired person
Ia take a glass of warm milk or a
cup Of soup. even II IL be near the
regular meal hour, and rest an hour
before eating a hearty meal. At
tractive service and pleasing COM
partnership both tend TO good di-
gestion. Good humor at meal time

Concentrated foods. such as sugar
have very irritating effect on the
lining Of the intestinal tract. which
Is one reason why candy is I'M
wholesome between meals. The
proportion in which fats. protein
and carbohydrate are eaten. affects
digestion. Since fat is so largely
d.geSted in the intestines, food that

stomach without giving the juices

salt is used with the lime, but ex-
perience has shown that in general
the lime without the salt is more
satisfactory.
Using Preserved Eggs
Fresh, clean eggs, properly pre-
served, can be used satisfactorily for
all purposes in cooking and for the
table. When eggs preserved in wa
ter glass are TO be boiled, a small
hole should be made in the shell
with pin at the large end before
placing them in the water. This is
done TO allow the air in the egg 10
escape when heated so as TO pre-
vent cracking.
