WIRES CROSSED Telephone Wires Dropped on Trolley Wires Northeast of Bhiffton THREE FIRES CAUSED In Decatur, Blull'ton-Craig-ville Offices—Fortunately No One Injured. Fire which did about twenty-five • dollars' damage in the local telephone | office, where it was speedily put out by the office chemical plant; and that also did damage in a similar way to the office at Bluffton; and a less amount in the telephone office at ' ('raigville, broke out yesterday after--1 noon when the wires of the DecaturBluffton telephone line less across the trolley win of the Bluffton-Ft. Wayne' traction line, at a point about three, miles northeast of Bluffton. This was caused by the breaking of the telephone pole at that point, letting the ' wires fall across the trolley wires. I j carrying 550 volts. The comparaj tively low voltage of the wires crossi ed and the fact that none of the operators and workmen were on the ': wires at the time prevented the loss of life and also lessened the amount of material damage. The wires were , • crossed for about an hour, before 10-' cated and the repair made. | _ EDIBLES ARE SCARCE | Drouth Causes Shortage of Food 1 j Supplies. «' • | Everybody depending upon Mother J Nature’s crops for sustenance —and ■ that includes just about everybody I mortal—rejoiced in the rain that 1 came this morning, breaking in a lit- • tie degree the drouth of several j weeks. The scarcity of garden prot ducts is great-apd the prices prevail- . ingly high, as a visit to market cent- • ers show. The farmers and gardeners . are very short in supplies which , merchants find difficult to obtain at r any price. i Creamery butter is selling at sixty _ I cents. Country butter is listed at 1 fifty cents— but it is a joke, for the grocer scarcely knows what country | butter is any more. One grocer said ihe 'hadn't seen a pound of country ' butter for six weeks. The pasture is remarkably short and dry at this time, and cattle correspondingly so in their supply of milk and cream. In ' addition thereto, is the temptation for ! the farmer to sell the cream at less ! labor and higher cost than the makj ing of butter at home. I A summary of prices will give those Iwh oare not raising their own sup- | plies an idea of the prevailing cost I here. Tomatoes are fifteen to eighteen cents a pound; cabbage six to seven cents; onions, five to ten cents; i and potatoes six cents a pound, or eighty five to ninety cents a peck. Eggs are selling at forty-six cents a dozen; dressed chickens at 35 to 40 cents a pound; live chickens, 26 to 32 cents; lard, 40 cents; bacon, 50 cents; ham, GO cents; beefsteak, 30 to ?5 cents; beef roasts 25 cents, while pork roasts have soared to 40 cents. Milk is thirteen cents a quart or seven cents a pint.

JUST A CHICKEN Paris —(By Mail) —Egg shells, not j bomb shells, are matters of the chief! importance in Douai nowadays. The first, newly hatched chicken in the devastated town of Douai, De I partment du Nord, stuck an uncertain I yellow head through the hclert in its I shell a few days ago, to the breath ; less interest of crowds of children; ' and grown folks. It was not only the first chicken hatched in Douai since the war. but the first one ever hatched there in, an American Incubator. They are still talking about it excitedly at the corner case. The glass fronts of the j two incubators, the gift of the American Red Cross to the town, have been besieged by the children since they first arrived. There are now twenty-five eggs in ' each incubator. Five eggs apiece are supplied by the ten families who hover about with proud, if anxious, ex- * pressions.
