ALL THE NEWS OF RAILROADS READY FOR CO-OPERATION Every Department Will Have Mail at Important Points; To Select Experts Now York, April 9. The War De partment and the railroads of the coun try have completed a plan of co-opera tion during the war, it was announced by Fairfax Harrison, president of the Southern Railway and chairman of the special committee on national defense of the American Railway Association. "As Bgreed upon by the railroads and the military authorities," Mr.'Harri son's statement in part said, "represen tatives of the American Railway Asso ciation from the operating', motive power, traffic and accounting depart ments of roads, designated by the spec ial committee of national defense of the American Railway Association will be located in the office of the quartermas ter general, at each mobilization point, at each concentration point and at each strategic point at which troops are to be assembled. "Other inspectors or representatives will be designated as may be required to facilitate the co-operation between the transportation lines and the mili tary service and as the needj of the service may indicate." Mr. Harrison stated the carriers had been advised that thes transportation experts "should be chosen from a class of men who will be broad-minded and temperamentally of such a character as would take a broad view of transpor tation in movements and supplies." It was urged that they should show no disposition "to work for or in favor of any particular transportation line." but should devote their energy "solely to the solution of the transportation problem In the manner most satisfac tory to the Government and in such fashion as can bo most effectively exe cuted by the railroads."

To Relieve Catarrh Catarrhal Deafness And Head Noises Persons suffering from catarrhal deafness and head noises will be glad to know that this distressing affliction can usually be successfully treated at home by an internal medicine that in many Instances has effected complete relief after other treatments have failed. Sufferers who could scarcely hear have had their hearing restored to such an extent that the tick of a watch was plainly audible seven or eight inches away from either car. Therefore, if you know of someone who is troubled with head noises or catar rhal deafness, cut out this formula and hand it to them and you may have been the means of saving some poor sufferer perhaps from total deafness. The pre scription can be prepared at home and is made as follows: Secure from your druggist 1 oz. Par mint (Double Strength), about 75 cents' worth. Take this home and add to It Vi pint of hot water and 4 oz. ot granulated sugar; stir until dissolved. Take ono tabiespoonful four times a day. Parmlnt is used in this way not only to reduce by tonic action the Inflamma tion and swelling In the Eustachian Tubes, and thus to equalize the air pres sure on the drum, but to correct any excess of secretions in the middle ear, and the results It gives are nearly al ways quick and effective. Every person who has catarrh In any form should give this recipe a trial- .Advertisement. EtXRRISBURG TEtEORXPH FIFTY MEN JOIN U. S. ARMY HERE Recruits Coming in So Fast Captain Ilarrell Is Losing Count, He Says "Recruits, not only from the city ] but from surrounding counties in our district are coming in so fast that 1 iam losing account of them," is the I way Captain William P. Harrell of the local army recruiting station speaks of the rally of the young men of the country to her defuse. "Fifty men to-day and 10 in the last seven days is our record." Large squads of men came to Har rlsburg to-day from surrounding towns, including Johnstown, Mahanoy ] City and seven men trom Atillersburg. IU'IIIS morning six men volunteered their willingness to join the colors bo fore the men in the recruiting station had started their morning work. Harrisburg' has been well to the fore in number of recruits. Seven teen men were examined on Saturday and this morning were sent to Fort Hlocum. In case of a call for 500,000 volun teers the allotment lrom this district Which Includes 20 counties would be 300 men per day for a month. Harris burg with a population of 1)2,000 would have to furnish 15 men each day. Captain Harrell feels confident that this number of men could be fur nished without dlfilcultv. Captain Harrell believes that with the added enthusiasm ,und spirit that a call for volunteers would bring there would be no difficulty in furnishing the men. Captain Ilarrell remarked on the fact that Harrisburg was one of the few cities where civilians were not actively interested in personal recruit ing. in Philadelphia and other cities |of the country private citizens have furnished automobiles to tour the town and surrounding country for men. Pretty girls usually accompany these automobiles on their tours for recruits, adding the effectiveness of feminine charm to the sound argu ments that the recruiting oflicers can offer to prospects. Captain Harrell has volunteered his willingness to fur nish uniformed men to accompany any such expeditions. Quartermuster Quirk during the last two weeks has sent 20 men to Phila delphia who have been accepted. Ap plications for service in the navy how ever. have fallen off since Uie formal declaration of war. CULTIVATION OF LOTS IS URGED . [Continued i'lom First I'ati'J bring the porties who have the time and inclination to cultivate vacant lots in touch with owners of vacant lots who are public-spirited enough to permit others to cultivate them if they can not do so. [ The Chamber of Commerce is ap proaching this matter from a practi cal standpoint believing the cultiva tion of vacant lots by industrious peo ple is a matter that is not connected with charity in any way. The Agricultural Committee requests that nil parties who are willing to cultivate a vacant lot if it can bo "placed at their disposal 'phone or write to the Secretary of the Cham ber of Commerce, E. L. McCoigin, 90S Kunkel Building. The committee re quests that such parties also familiar ize themselves with any vacant iots In their neighborhood and report the lo cation of vacant lots near them to the Chamber whe.i advising their willing ness to cultivate lots. On the other hand, the Committee requests that property owners, agents and others controlling vacant lots in Harrisburg that are willing to place at the disposal of parties who are will ing to cultivate them during the com j ing food shortage communicate the particulars about such lots to Mr. ! MoColgin by 'phone or by letter. | In taking the matter in this prelimi nary wuy, the Chamber of Commerce is endeavoring to learn the possibilities | of the situation and appeals to people | of Harrisburg to arouse themselves to ithe need of cultivating property with i in city limits. A dinner meeting of the Retail Mer i chants in Harrisburg who are mem ! hers of the Harrisburg Chamber of : Commerce will be held tit the Harris burg dub at C:3O p. m. Wednesday, to discuss matters of interest to the re |tai! trade. I A luncheon meeting of the entire membership of the Chamber of Com- Imerce will be held at the Harrisburg jclub at twelve o'clock Tuesday, April 12. Robert H. Patchin of New York | City, Secretary of the National Foreign Trade Council will address the meet ing discussing matters connected with foreign trade development. Because so many Harrisburg firms obtain a large share of their business ; from export orders, this meeting is ex pected to be attended by a large number of manufacturers, bankers, and men of affairs. BRITISH GAIN IN NEW OFFENSIVE [Continued l'iorr First I'age] I Bouries and penetrated Havrincourt | wood. In the direction of St. Quentin the I British took Fresnoy Lo Petit and ad ) vanccd their line southeast of Le Ver j guler. No estimate of the number of j Germans captured can yet be given, the statement says, but the number is considerable. The fighting line fram Lens to Ar ras is approximately ten miles in length and lies directly north of the Held of the retreat which the Germans have been conducting for the past sev eral weeks. The fact that the line has been pene trated by the British all along this wide front indicates that the move ment there is a general offensive. That it is proving a successful drive in indicated by the statement that "satisfactory progress" 13 being made "at all points." An entire new phase of operations on the western front is opened up in this new battlo on the Lens-Arras line. The field of attack represents the greatest danger point for the Ger mans, as in the recent lighting a sharp salient was driven into tho German lino southeast of Arras. In the Lens region, into which the British are driving is a rich coal Held which the Germans have been exploit ing since their occupation of this ter ritory early in the war. The opening of the new offensive had been foreshadowed in the intense aerial activity of tho past two or three days in which hundreds of airplanes have been engaged on both sides. This work, as British statements have indicated, has given General ilalg's staff photographic reproduc tions of the German positions for long distances behind the fighting line. Further south the British have con tinued their progress in the field of the German retreat, the advance re ported at liermles and Boursies being particularly Important. Bour sies is directly on the road from Ba paume to Cambrai, about eight miles from the latter place. Hermies lies Just south of Boursies. In their drive to St. Quentin tho capture of Fresnoy de Petit puts tho British within 2% miles of St. Quen tin's outskirts.

(Corns All Gone—Turn j j the Phonograph On I And Dance I ■ j Yes, that's just what you'll want to do If that pet corn of yours ever feels the magic touch of Ice-mint. Druggists say that this new discovery which is made from a Japanese product will shrivel up the toughest old corn or cal lous and make them lift out easily. It's wondetful. No matter what you have tried or how many times you have been disappointed here is real help for you at last. Ice-mint ends corn and foot misery for good and there is not a bit of pain or soreness when applying it or afterwards. It draws the inflammation out of swollen, tired or burning feet; heals cracked or bleeding toes and Im parts such a delightful, cooling, sooth ing sensation that you just sigh with relief. It's genuine, costs little and is highly appreciated by women who wear high heel shoes and by men who stand on their feet all day. Try it. Ask your 'druggist to-day for a few cents' worth of Ice-mint and give your poor, tired, suffering, burning feet the treat of their lives.

Secretary Pat ton was summoned by a telegraphic message from United States Secretary of Agriculture D. F. Houston and the meeting will be at tended by the head's fcf agricultural departments of every state in the Union. The entry of the United States into the war has made the food supply question a critical one, as tho farmers of this country will not only be called upon to feed the lmuicn.su [army of this country, but probably to help out in supplying food to tho countries with which the United j States will be allied in the struggle. I Secretary Patton and Governor | Brumbaugh have repeatedly called j upon the people of Pennsylvania to I use every available space of ground | for the production of food this sum mer. Secretary Patton lias asked every housewife to put up all the canned vegetables that it. is possiblo to conserve and has called attention to the enormous scarcity of tin cans and the necessity for the conservation and use of all glass receptacles. Ilefore leaving Secretary Patton sgld: "Bvery food commodity must bo brought to a maximum and I most j urgently plead for a State-wide cam- I'Tign for greater production of I grains, potatoes, garden crops, fruits, beef cattle, hogs, sheep, and dairy supplies. Farmers should retain all their breeding ewes this year and try i to double the output of wool in this j State. We are facing a serious situa ! tion and it cannot be made too cm i pliatlc. < "There should not be en Idle high j school or college boy In the country this summer.
