10 FOOD CAMPAIGN URGED BY PATTON People Should Raise More Foodstuffs and All Surplus Should Be Canned Secretary of Agriculture Patton, fol lowing the suggestion made at the opening meeting of the Committee of Safety by Health Commissioner Dixon and President Sparks, of the State College, has issued a proclamation in which he urges the farmers of the state to raise more food crops this sea son and that everybody can and pre serve foods for next winter in as large o.uantities as possible. Secretary Patton says: "Facing such conditions, it is neces sary to start a strenuous campaign of education of all the facts in order to bring about much-needed relief in the way of farm products, home gardens, back lot gardens and any other method "hich will bring about a more ample *ood supply. It does not seem to me that there should be any fear of an overproduction, as the extreme short ness that is bound to occur in some lines will take care of any extra large production in other lines. ."We are informed that there will be a shortage of approximately one bil lion tin cans and I would call upon all the housewives to save all of the glass jars they may have on hand and to fill them with such food commodi ties that can be carried into the win ter. If each household will fill a few jars with vegetables and fruits it will mean the saving of thousands of jars of food materials. "On the farms we will have the labor problem to contend with, but unless the resources are too heavily drawn upon by war I would call upon all merchants, manufacturers and em ployers of labor to spare one or more men one day each week to help in the nearby rural districts so that the lack of help may not retard the farmer In putting forth his Very last effort for maximum production. The farmers ■will be glad to pay for this help if it is obtainable. Such help can also be tendered in communities where gar dening has been taken up on a large scale and where labor is needed. In addition every man, woman and child should be instructed to look seriously into the future and boom the utilizing of all yards, lots or any "place possible for the planting of and care in raising for their own use and for marketing all kinds of vegetables, both for spot consumption and winter use, thereby helping to in some important lines the high or higher cost of living. Even were we not on the verge of war such matters should be seriously con sidered, but under present conditions they cannot be given even as serious consideration as is necessary. "The watchword of the day is 'Pre paredness' and the unlimited care and raising of vegetables at such a period certainly comes under that heading. Such facts and advice should be daily promulgated in the newspapers throughout the United States." TRY A HORSE PORTERHOUSE Think of buying all the fine meat cuts, from roundsteal: to porterhouse, at from six to fifteen cents a pound! It can be done; it is being done. There are Italians, Norwegians, Germans and Swiss in New York who are pay ing no more than fifteen cents a pound for the choicest steaks. And they are getting meat which for palatability and nutritive value is far above most of the beef tenderloins and sirloins we consume at the pre vailing price of thirty-two and thirty six cents a pound. It is no 1 , beef that these wise foreigners are eating, but' horse meat. The very mention of horse flesh is unpleasant—not because one out of a thousand knows what it tastes like, but because we love the horse and therefore dislike to eat him. Yet the horse is perhaps our cleanest animal, remarks the Popular Science Month ly. He eats clean food, lives in a clean environment, and keeps himself clean. He is practically free from tuberculosis and many other serious diseases to which our flesh-producing animals are subject. Notwithstanding this, however, we continue to make beefsteak a staple food product, de spite the exorbitant prices at which it is sold. 432 MARKET STREET SPECIALS FOR SATURDAY, MARCH 31 UP TILL NOON SPECIALS FANCY 1 CHUCK ROAST lb. lOC BONE STEAK lb. 18c ALL DAY SPECIALS LEAN 1 POT ROAST lb.

HARRISBBRG (££& TELEGRAPH MARCH 30, 1917. BOTH PARTIES TO FIGHT ON CAUCUS Republicans and Democrats Have Many Points to Smooth Out fly Associated Press Washington. D. C.. March 30.—Pac tional battle flags were hoisted last night In both Democratic and Repub lican' camps in preparation for the conferences to-day and Saturday over House organization plans. The Republicans are divided ,-llong many lines. While it now is generally conceded that the party will put a full ticket in the field, the Progressive, bi partisan, temporary organization and anti-Mann factions are expected to have much to say before a program is finally agreed upon. Democrats face a serious problem in the announced opposition of Repre sentative Gallhan, of Massachusetts, a "wet" insurgent, generally credited with a score of followers, *o the or ganization plan for reseating old com mittee chairmen and advancing other committeemen to chairmanships under the seniority rule. Arriving here to-day. Mr. Gallivan announced that while he would sup port Speaker Clark for re-election, he would not go into the Democratic cau cus, would oppose the Democratic or ganization committee plan and would further urge the naming of several Republicans to committee chairman ships. Thus far he has not conferred with any other so-called insurgents, but he said to-night he thought "one or two of the boys" would be with him in his fight. "I am unalterably opposed to the southern Democrats remaining in the saddle throughout the coming Con gress," Mr. Gallivan said. * Fears that enough Democrats may follow the Masascliusetts member to upset party plans are based largely upon his success during the closing days of the last session in defeating a judgeship retirement bill earnestly de sired by Southern Democrats. Democrats will caucus to-morrow afternoon and a complete organization plan will be worked out. Unless unex pected changes are made, the tentative arrangements for making committee assignments probably will be adopted. TALK FOR YOl'XCi FOLKS At Messiah Lutheran Church to-night the pastor, the Rev. H. W. A. Hanson, will give a special talk to young pe. - sons. His subject will be "The Higher Mission of L.ent." FINE KIM MEDICINE FOR OLD PEOPLE This is to state that for the past seven years that I have been in the drug business your Swump-Root lias been in great demand especially by the aged. Three years ago I kept the drug store on Eighteenth avenue and Sixty-third street, opposite which was a home for aged men. The inmates of the home were steady customers of this wonderful remedy which re lieved them of various afflictions of the kidneys and bladder. In the ma jority of cases it was used for rheu matism, after other remedies had failed to give them even temporary relief. These people spoke very high ly of its merits, and I will recommend it to others with great pleasure, be ing confident of its results. Very truly yours, CAROLYN G.

I • , „ La, W FRENCH PUSH ON i WITH NEW VIGOR fly Associated V*'css From a Staff Correspondent of The j Associated Press With the French Armies On the French Front, March The progress of the French ad vance in the vicinity of Ooucy-le- j Chateau, now firmly in French hands, continued methodically to-day. Both cavalry and Infantry are keeping in the closest touch with the Germans and forcing them to liastcn the speed of | j their retreat. From the strength and thorough ! preparation of the German defensive i works, It was evident that a longer I st/nd was intended. The castle of Coucy-le-Chatean, a I unique historical monument, which ten 'days ago. although dismantled, was in i tact as constructed by Knguerrand 111 | in the Thirteenth Century, was found by The Associated I'ress correspondent I when he visited it to-day to be a mere heap of stones. The French officer, I \fho was the first to enter the fortress, ! told the story of Its capture on Tues day. I'renoh In Purwlt ■ The French pursuing column, it ap pears, llrst sighted thc castle from a long distance on March 21. While the French were approaching, the castle seemed to rise In the air and then, after an awe-inspiring explosion, evolved into dust, which covered the trees and grass all around with a white limestone de posit. The French patrols came nearer and found the ruins still held by the Germans and the surrounding glacis and low-lylnw lands swept by many machine guns. The French, undaunted, brought into play clever tactics which eventually en abled them to carry the castle by as sault. A young lieutenant, with a num ber of comrades, effected an entrance j through ruined houses to the fortified I village, which had clung about the castle walls for many centuries and drove out the German defender!. What object ttie Germans could hava had In destroying this relic remains a mystery, as the castle was useless in modern warfare. Carllnal Mazarin, during the reign ot L.ouis XIV, once tried to demolish it when the caatla served as a rallying point for feudal ists. Its walls were in some places thirty-four feet in thickness. The en tire surrounding country has been laid waste. The correspondent passed over the sites of what had once been the nourishing villages of Folembray, Guny, Trosly-ljoire, St. Aubin, Bleran court and Cuts and over hundreds of acres of sawn-down orchards, while, at the water's edge on the Oise-Aisno canal he saw a number of barges burn ed to the water's edge.
