Newspaper Page TextPAGE FOUR PRISONERS IN GERMANY WERE SADLY UNDERFED Washington, Dev. 3.—American prisoners returning from German prison camps complain of scanty food and bad housing conditions, General Pershing has informed the war de partment, but there is no evidence of diserimination against Americans nor any authenticated report of brutality toward them. " The war department issued the fol- Jowing statement, based on a cable from General Pershing, dated Novem ber 29, and sent in reply to an inquiry cabled by General March: * American prisoners released from German prison camps complain of poor and scanty food and bad hous ing conditions. Only a small percent age of those who are sick are hospital cases. The majority are suffering from slight colds and the prospect is that all will recover rapidly with pro per food and housing. There is no evi dence of discrimination against the American prisoners. “Among 7,000 prisoners of all na tionalities who have been released there is no autheatic instance of bru tality against the Americans. “The majority of the American prisoners state that the German sol diers also suffered food privations, but that in cases where the supply of food was insufficient, food for the prisoners was cut off before that for the German soldiers.” GERMANS’ RETREAT IS LIKE NAPOLEONS’ Paris, Dec. s.—German troops wrich have been occupying Russian territory are returning to Germany under great difficulty, according to a dispatch from Copenhagen. One de tachment of 1,500 men marching from Lodz, seventy-five miles south west of Warsaw, were attacked by the Poles and only succeeded ;in reaching the German border after un dergoing severe hardships. The German Army of 500,000 men is being forced to march homeward through snow and rain. The men can not use the railroads because the Rus sians returning to their own country have taken over all the rolling stock. The Germans are pillaging as they pass through villages, the inhabitants taking flight as the soldiers approach. e OUR NAVY IS TO HAVE MORE STRONGHOLDS Washington, Dec. I.—Aerican nav al bases in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and Caribbean Sea will be measurably strengthened with surplus equipment manufactured for the war and now released or in process of release. While the great fleet base in Hamp ton Roads has not been wholly com pleted, it is well on the way toward being the most extensive establishé ment of its kind undertaken by the navy. From the navy’s standpoint it i< one of the blessings of the war. It is designed to take care of the entire Atlantic Fleet. : In time a strong base will be devel oped in the Virgin Islands, and the big Guantanamo (Cuba) base or ren dezvous will be strengthened. The re lease of aircraft and other equipment not longer required for war purposes will make possible important develop ments on our several zases. This is true of Pearl Island, Hawaii, Guam an dthe Philippines. SOUTH AFRICA FAVORS EXPULSION OF GERMANS Johannesburg, South Africa, Dec. I.—The recent statement of Sir Geo. Cave, British Home Secretary, re garding the repatriation of Germans has evoked keen interest here. It is strongly felt that Germans interned in South Africa ,numbering several thousands, should be repatriated. If Australia and Canada eject Germans, it is felt that South Africa must fol lew suit. HOW THREE FARM BOYS WAK ENED FATHER ‘ One of the outstanding results of boys’ agricultural club work in Tenn essee has been its effect upon the pa rents of the members. Three sons of a Madison County farmer joined the corn club last year. One son pro duced 144 bushels on his acre, an other 139 bushels, and the third 120 bushels, the profit from the 3 acres being $464.64. This demonstration wakened the father to the opportuni ties at his very door. He has pulled out of the rut, adopted progressive ideas, and has become a ‘‘live wire”’ and a recognized leader in his neigh borhood. FOOD NOTES Merchants may buy sugar without certificates, and may sell without tak ing certificates, and purchasers are allowed four pounds per individual per month. Flour may be sold as was done be fore Federal Food Control was inau gurated. Hoarding flour, however, is not allowable. All restrictions are removed from any and all kinds of building. It is still necessary to conserve food, but doing so is put up to each individual consumer. We have 200,000,000 of Eutropeans to feed for some months vet. BERNARD AWTREY, Fed.

WEEK-END BASKETS MARKETED BY CLUB One method which has proved most practicable in bringing the pro ducers and consumers in this country nearer together has been the=‘‘week end” basket which goes from the farm to the city dweller. A home-demon stration club in Davidson County, Tenn., is marketing its surplus in these baskets. Ordinary peck bask ets are used for the purpose and vege tables, small fruits, eggs, cottage cheese, butter, dressed chickens, etc., are packed in them. In the begin ning instructions in dressing fowls for market was found necessary by the home-demonstration agent, as few of the farm woman had done this work. SPANISH INFLUENZA OR GRIF BY DR. LEE H. SMITH. An old enemy'is with us again, anc whether we fight a German or a germ we must put up a good fight, and not be afraid. The influenza runs a very brie! course when the patient is careful, and if we keep the system in good condition and throw off the poisons which tend tc accumulate within our bodies, we car escape the disease. Remember these three C’s—a clean mouth, a clean skin, and clean bowels. To carry off poisons from the system and keep the bowels loose, daily doses of a pleasant laxative should be taken. Such a one is made of May-apple, leaves of aloe, root of jalap, and called Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets. Hot lemonade should be used freely if attacked by a cold, and the patient should be put to bed aifter a hot mustard foot-bath. To prevent the attack of bronchitis or pneumonia and to control the pain, Anuric tablets should be obtained at the drug store, and one given every two hours, with lemonade. The Anuric tab lets were first discovered by Dr. Pierce, and, as they flush the gladder and cleanse the kidneys, they carry away much of the poisons and the uric acid. It is important that broths, milk, but termilk, ice-cream and simple diet be given regularly to strengthen the sys tem and increase the vital resistance. The fever is diminished by the use of the Anuric tabiets, but in adcfition, the fore head, arms and hands may be bathed with water (tepid) in which a table spoonful of salaratus has been dissolved in a quart. After an attack of grip or pneumonia to build up and strengthen the system, obtain at the drug store a good iron tonic, called * Irontic” Tab lets, or that well known herbal tonic, Dr, Pierce’s Goldea Medical Discovery. GERMANY MUST PAY TO THE VERY LIMIT London, December 4.—A1l the na tions represented at the inter-allied conference here may be regarded as in agreemnt with the policy of Lloyd- George as to compelling Germany to pay to the limit of her capacity. The allied representatives are also agreed on the proposition of bringing to trial those responsible for outrages on humanity during the war. It is understood a general agree ment was reached on the matters deliberated on, but, out of courtesy to the United States, in the absence of Colonel House, it would be necessary to acquaint President Wilson in detail with the decisions before they are made public. Speaking at Bootle, Andrew Bonar Law, the chancellor of the ex chequer, confirmed the statement that the British government had de cided to press the allies as strongly as possible that the surrender of for mer Emperor William should be de manded, and that he should stand his trial. The chancellor also announced that the government had appointed a com mittee to examine scientifically into the question of how much the enemy would be able to pay. The govern ment would propose such procedure to the allies, and he believed it would be adopted. An inter-allied commit tee would then inquire into the whole question and decide what amount was obtainable. Steps would then be tak en to secure its payment, As Colonel E. M. House, the Amer ican grepresentative, was unable to ‘attend the allied conferences in Lon don yesterday and today, Mr. Bonar Law added, it was impossible that a decision could be reached on any point. He was, therefore, now only expressing the views of the British government. NAVAL CONCESSION REFUSED GERMANY \ Copenhagen, December 4.—The re ply of Admiral Beatty, commander of the British grand fleet, to a request by Germany for mitigation of naval terms of the armistice, refuses any concession regarding merchant ship ping or fishing in the North Sea, the Berlin Wolff bureau states. Among the comedy masterpieces at The Strand this week will be “The Fate of Marriage” “The Butcher Boy”’ “Bright Lights” “A Son of a Gun” And other good ones. Came to this Woman after Taking Lydia E.
