HELP!

iThere is considerable talk just now ^aJjOUt federal agents probing the coal sjtuatiQn and thrusting into a dungeon ther men responsible for the high prices V*. v a^f^f.eoal. PfjL. phis' is i very complicated matter, «^r\ as can soon be demonstrated. The federal commission reports the sea port "terminals choked with coal cars. The east and central states have been ,j drained of these cars and they are up, they are temporarily out of cyice for the reason that tHfey are iting at seaports for botttoms to 'their cargoes. These bottoms^ or

?s are not operating with their alacrity because maritime insur$5ehas become prohibitive. Lit i& a long way around, but it can prai truly said that the submarine warite responsible for the coal famine ^ithat. exists here at the door of tup i.i|na coal fields today. ipTJ-boat warfare is keeping the coal fns: here on the prairies of Indiana empty.

Stewart, elsewhere in the Tribfe today, outlines the dilemma of le sand, gravel, iflrain tile, brick and ftitient industries. The council of nablial de-fenste, prompted by patriotic ltrtlves, of course, has ordered that (1 traffic b^ given all the preference, ^d, gravel, cement, etc., fellows their products piling up in their tds and that isn't the worst.

REFERRED TO JUDGE ANDERSON.

A Washington dispatch «to The Tribune today says that Assistant Secretary Newton, of the United States treasury, is authority for the statement that directly afer the declaring of war flag manufacturers doubled the price of flags. His indignation of this piece of gouging is entirely justifiable and should be Reflected in the attorney general's office. If the price of flags was increased at the same time by many makers, it is at least presump tive evidence that the Sherman antitrust law is being violated in that trade.

In connection with the war time food conservation the department of agriculture has disclbsed that over. 1,3,000,000 dozen eggs, most of them laid in the spring, spoil in cold storage simT ply because their shells have been cracked. Just a little more care in handling eggs on the farm, in. getting them to the country collector, in packing them* properly in cases for shipment. in handling the cases as fragile shipments, will greatly lessen this enormous and important waste of valuable food. The United States department of agriculture, therefore, urges every one who has anything to do with handling eggs to exercise unusual care this year to prevent them from being even checked.

Once an egg shell is cracked, even so slightly that the eye canndt^see it, germs and molds find ready entrance into the egg and spoil its contents.

WORD FLIP-FLOPS.

A Tribune reader writes in to inquire where he can find something iN luminatin^ on Col. Roosevelt's latest verbal gymnastics.

The colonel who gave currency tp "Byzantine Logothete," "weasel words," "nature faker" and numerous other expressions that caught the popular fancy, has" added "meadiin^ meanness" to the Jist. a

It is not" likely that many people in the Chicago audience to which he addressed the words knew what meaching means, but he was alluding gently and indirectly to the mayor' of that town, so they must have known that the word is not complimentary. It is obsolete, except in out-of-the-way places, where outworn words thrive

He seems already like a different man. lescum has gained a* wonderful enthusiast in me. I regard it as a Godsend. Just think, I have never seen my husband sober for more than 48 hour's in years and now it Is going on one month since he had his last drink.'

tiOiGARDENERS HERE'S DEATH TO CUT WORM

Tribune Gardener Tells How to Sate Early Plants,- Especiallyy Hot House Starts.

(By Tribune Gardener.)

War gardeners, particularly those working plots that have been sod-cov* ered for yeai's, as many of this year's Terre Haute gardens are, must beware of the cut worm.

These pests make truck plans, particularly those started in not beds and then transplanted, the principal object of their attacks

Poisoned bait is the usual means of stamping out the cut worm. A peck of brain, mixed with a Quarter of a pound of white arsenic or Paris green, two gallons of water and a quart of cheap molasses will be quite sufficient for an acre of gardeft*. This dose may be cut down in proportion to the size of the land planted.

The mixture, after .standing several hours, should be scattered In- small

being kept open every day for reSoiirwine, in lu^aps over the ground affected and att^ndTOCe aa medical examirieri about the bases of the plants. Great care should be used in Handling the mixture, as arsenic and Paris green are deadly poison. The mixture should

Within the last two days strawberries began coming in from aa far north as Tenneqpee.

Hastings, Fla., has stent 1,100 more cars of potatoes than were shipped at this date one year ago and the condition of the crop is muc& better. A wire last night said that Wharton, Tex., has 7,000 acres und buyers are paying $100 to $110 an acre for the crop on the ground. This should mean a price not greatly in excess of 75 cents *a bushel. So great is the potato crop in Florida that barrels are in great demand.

Two great tomato sections. Manatee, Fla., with 3.000 acres, and Dania. Fla., with 1,000 acres, have started shipping.

HOROSCOPE.

"The Star* Incline, But Do Not Compel." Copyright, 1916, by the McCluro

Newspaper Syndicate.

Thursday, May 10, 1917.

While Mars rules strongly for good this day, according! to astrology, Jupiter* Venus and Uranus are all adverse.

It is a Jucky sway for engineers, contractors for steel and iron work, for artisans and manufacturers-.

There is a sign read as promising benefits and money for hospitals* and enterprises in which surgeons and physicians are interested. This sign has indicated extraordinary expansion of buildings, endowments and legacies for the last year and has been o*ne of the ominous aspects indicating possible war.

The arrel'y is subject to a planetary government read as indicating activity and improvement, but so far, the stars haye not been read as presaging heq,vy losses or severe fightirig.

Bankers and brokers should be .cautious this dajj, which may lead them into dangprous enterprises.

It is not a favorable day for musical or theatrical entertainments. A famous actor ipay b^ most unlucky under this sway.

Warning is given that men In places of authority may'make serious mistakes of judgment. Uranus has power to cause would-be patritjts to stumble grievously. ... ...

Weddirigs are subject to influences not altogether reassuring, since th6' stars encourage deception and may cause disappointment.

Women snould refrain from making themselves conspicuous while the stars are posited as they are today, it Is not a good rule for eithejr public or private affairs.

The death of a leader In reform movements is foretold.. It may tak«* place in- a publio place.

Most of the crowned heads of Europe have sinister stars to guide them. Illness, death and loss of power are indicated. The king and queen of England may pass through a summer of poor health ^nd mournhig.

The president's cabinet continues subject to planets that are believed to cause sudden changes.

A .summer of ^changeable weathW and much rain is probable, but agriculture is under a, promising government' of the stars.

Persons whose birthdate it fs should attend strictly to business In the coming year. They should beware of danger from association with persons if opposite sex.

Children born on this day may meet with many vicissitudes. These subjects of Taurus should be trained to self control as they may be their own worst enemies.
