St. John*, N. Fj— Relief* for the dei»-
tttuto Inhabitants of .tho 'barren Lab
rsdor region has been undertaken by
the New Koundland government. The
steamer Kyle, now plovidbK her was
through the ice-laden waters off the
Labrador coast, Is carry Iran a cargo
of provisions to Sandwich bay, which
is about a hundred miles north of Hat
tie Harbor, whore Dr. Wilfred T Gren
fell maintains his mission suction and
hospital.
The Kyle was chartered bjn the gov
ernment after word had been received
from Dr Grenfell and others of the
serjous conditions prevailing? In Lab
rad < *r. Because the const wtis choked
With ice as late as August 1. with re
sultant low temperature on loud, the
Cod and other large fish were hoo tor
fld to uoesh In the nets or latest bait,
.be smaller fish held far off shore,
potato plaints did not appear above
the (round and the berry crop was
practically a failure. The people had
nothing to iftv on but bread and tea.
There was a monlh of good flshuig,
then winter set In again.
With the outbreak of the war tn
Europe the market for Jaihradur fish
was almost completely cut off and
there was a rise In the price of food
stuffs which made the cost of flour,
sugar, meat and butter prohibitive to
the Impoverished flabormen. The war
also led to the sus pens lon of operations
In railway constructhm in New Found -
land and the dosing of mines at Fyd
ne.v and B*He Isle, where many of the
Labrador men have gime la recent
years for winter employment. The big
fur companies are hcNttutlng to buy
any pelts in the present condition of
the market.
Labrador thus was left without any
source of Income and Us Inhabitants
faced starvation. Tu ad-1 to the suf
fering a severe epidemic of influenza
Is ruglng. The relief measures Insti
tuted by the New Fmmi And gvivern
rnctlt will help the situation somewhat
and w II tide the pcoptd over until

the British and Flench soldiers at the front. Deliv

Enormous ord< rs have been placed for Fleece-
Lined Cotton Underwear for immediate delivery and
the mills which have received the orders are now
striving night and day to fill them.
While tlve American Manufacturer, big and lit
tle, is straining his utmost to make munitions of war,
what of the demands of the neutrals?
Trade in munitions oi war is a feverish sprint for
the immediate, mightily needed dollai and the Ameri
can Manufacturer is to be congratulated upon the re
ceipt of his share of the orders.
Trade with neutral nations means a steady, prog
ressive, illimitable, ending* growth in a market where
there is at present practically no competition. When
the war is over the American Manufacturer who es
tablishes himself now will find that he cannot be dis
placed because the quality of his goods will keep the
market open.
No goods, however excellent, will sell themselves.
The American Manufacturer who does not bestir him
self to get in touch with new customers, at home and
abroad cannot develop his business.

ers, must “Get Up and Get It.” Tell Herald Readers
your store news in The Herald and they’ll talk it over

Such isthe Record of Solicitor
General A. L. Franklin and

Court
Solicitor General A. L. Franklin and
Special Bailiff Cook of the superior
court are feeling very good over the
records they have recently made.
During the past six weeks there have
been sessions of the superior court at
which the state has shown to splendid
advantage.
Out of a total of 95 cases of all
kinds considered there have been pleas
of guilt or convictions in 91. There
have been a total of 14 murder cases
tried and only two defendants have
been acquitted. The solicitor general
says that in these two cases there was
very little evidence against the par
ties anyway and that the homicides
seemed to have been justifiable.
There was one conviction for mur
der In the first degree, Ham Rhodes
now being under sentence to hang for
the murder of Walker Green. There
were a number of sentences for man
slaughter. while Henry Itabnn was
given a life term in the penitentiary
for the murder of John James,
CAN’T BUY SLEEPING
QUARTERS OR FOOD
Ponchary.—The civilian visitors to
any village near the firing line are
usually compelled to sleep in the ve
hicles In which they rame. As to get
ting anything to eat or drink, this Is
almost Impossible. The restaurant or
Innkeeper always declares that all food
has been requisitioned by the soldiers.
If the visitor has brought his provis
ions with him. he may eat them at the
Inn. Ihjl nothing can b« cooked in the
pluce owing to lack of fuel.
The visitor may not go out Into the
streets between 6 o'clock tn the even
ing and 5 o'clock In the morning, so
severe are the restrictions of martial
law. Should he break the regulations,
he Is arrested and kept tn the gendar
mery until an escort has been pro
vided. which accompanies him to some
city fur to the rear, and ho Is put un
der parole not to approach the linos
again during the campaign.

Washington, D, C.—Figures made
public today at the Department of
Commerce indicate rapid growth in
the export trade of the United States.
The balance of trade In favor of this
country for the 11 months ending with
November is afiproximcOelv (184,247,-
000. This shows a hi- lihy increase
in the International situation so far as
the United States is affected when a
comparison is made with the official
returns for September and October.
In September with the European war
In the second month of Its life the bal
ance of trade In favor of the United
States was a little in excess of $16,-
(>OO.OOO. It increased to about $57,-

November, according to the figures of
the Department of Commerce,
Officials say (heir advices concern
ing export trade, which are as yet In
complete for November bear out thetr
prophecies that the export business is
destined to boom at a tremendous rate
in the next few months.
In September goods were shipped

ZEPPELIN HIDDEN
FROM THE ENEMY
Germans Have Devised Unique
Way of Painting Hangars to
Represent Houses to Protect
Craft.
Paris—A French lad who was study
ing in Germany when tha war began
and has just managed to return here
today told some interesting facts about
the way the German Zeppelins are
being concealed.
"The Germans are manufacturing
Zepepltns and likewise nangars for
them as fast as they can, In prepara
tion, they say, for some big attempt,"
said the boy, who is about 15 years
old. "They do not fear attacks on
them when not actually In the air
from flying machines; that is, when
they are hidden in their hangars.
Two Kinds.
"There are two kinds of hangars—
those generally used and the secret
hangars. The usual ones are those
which can be located, perhaps by hos
tile aviators. In these the aircrafts
men keep their materials and do their
work and make repairs. They have
in these places also their implements
and tubes of oompresaed gas; at any
rate, they hav© piles of tubes stored
away.
"But the airships ready for use are
elsewhere. The Germans have made
huge subterranean excavations, in
which the dirigible balloons are kept
ready. They are hidden from view
by an Ingenious device. A superstruc
ture Is built over these deep cavities
in the form of a light skeleton frame
work, which is walled round and roof
ed over with a sort of rough canvas
material. This canvas is painted to
resemble stucco or bricks. The build
ing looks at a little distance Just like
a factory for ordinary industrial pur
poses.
Canvas Church.
“I saw one of these sham factories
with a canvas ehimney and Imitation
windows and doors all complete to de
ceive the eye. At a little distance no
one would believe that a huge Zeppe
lin Is stored away underneath,
"I could not see inside, of course,
for no stranger can go near, but I
listened to what people who knew had
to say and pretended to pay no atten
tion. Inside, there Is, they say, a roof
ing over the airship strong enough to
protect the cruiser from ordinary
bomb-throwing. I heard a story that
another was disguised under a canvas
church.
“But,” said a member of the building
committee to the architect, "you have
n't r single spire on the church.” .
“No. In these days of advanced civi
lization it is better to build your church

GOVERNMENT TO HELP
GEORGIA HOG RAISERS
The modern method of solving agri
cultural problems by investigating
them, not only In the laboratory, but
also on the farm In co-operatlbn with
the farmer, has given such admirable
results that it is to be applied to the
anti-hog-cholera crusade.
Congress has appropriated a half
million dollars to carry on the work
and experiments will be made In all
parts of the United States. The aim
will be not only to exterminate the
disease in the test sections, hut also
to discover the most practical, effi
cient and economical methods for con
tinuing the work throughout the coun
try'.
This investigation will fill a long
felt want In Georgia, as the hog death
rate in this state from cholera is 90
per 1,000 head and hog raisers are los
ing an average of 180,000 hogs, valued
at $1,476,000, from this disease annu
ally.
ONLY PAPEr'”wITH U. S.
NEWS, PETROGRAD, CLOSED
Petrograd.—Quite recently the Rus
sian government suppressed the German
Petrograd Gazette which has been pub
lished here for some time past. The
reason for this action is difficult to find,
as the policy of the paper distinguished
itself by strong patriotic feeling evetf
since the war began.
It was, moreover, the organ of the
nobility of the Baltic provinces. Its sup
pression is said to be due to the deter
mination of the government not to allow
any publication in the German language
to continue during the war. Many Am
ericans residing here will have reason
to begrpt the disappearance of the “Ga
zette, ’’ as It was the sole paper pub
lished there which contained a regular
bulletin of American news and had been
