American Naval officials baliava that an affective ayatem for chocking tha submarina manaea la being built up gradually but cartainly. Many da vicaa and many mathoda antar into tha taak. Among othar thinga dapth bomba ara proving effective. Official raporta indicata that American de atroyert. hava accounted for aavaral U-boata with these weapons. No an nouncement of auch incidanta will be made, however, unleaa abaolute proof of tha fact ia available. No L'-Boat Captured. No U-boat ha* been rapture*! by tha American.". Reports from London that tha submarine* arc working far ther at Ma than formerly were con firmed by the navy deportment. It may lie that new boats of greater nil* and better sea-keeping qualities lend to this extension of the zona of ac tivities, but it is regarded as more probable that the increaaing vigilance of the anti-submarine lorcca is mainly responsible. The effect of the increasing patrol of the employment of airplanes and of the addition of new devices to the an ti-submarine weapons, has been to force the U-boats under water to a greater and greater degree. Their ef fectiveness ia limited in proportion. They cannot run down a merchant ship of average speed if kept under water. They enn operate only against hip* that almiwt stumble upon them. And ail the time they are under water, they are concuming the stored power of their storage batteries, decreasing their range of under water action and tampelling them to cume up at night and lie idle on .he surfacc while their I oil engines are used to recharge the batteriea. The decision of the navy department to spend $350,000,000 on new destroy-1 ers and destroyer building facilities, approved yesterday by President Wil son, is based on the effectiveness of the swift fighting machines us pro en by Admiral Sims' forces. Undljf Depth Bomb. American expert* have developed a depth bomb for um a* i-insi subnea-1 rines that is deadly at considerable! range. The Ixjmb, containing highj explosives, is dropped from a destroy-| er over a spot where the presence of i a submerged U-boat is indicated. It i is timed to explode at a certain depth. If the explosion occurs below the U-! boat and within a reasonable distance, the hull of the underwater craft can not withstand the pressure but is| crashed like an egg shell. Sign* of the destruction in this way I appear on the surface in the shape of oil from ruptured fuel tanks, bits of floatng wreckage and the like. It is very difficult, therefore to be certain of a hit as the Germans on more than one occasion release oil purposely, turned loose wreckage prepared in ad vance and done everything else to create the impression that a boat had been sunk. Airplanes are being used In conjunc tion with the destroyers work of the i allies along the French coast and in' the cliannel. So far, the American destroyers have not worked with air craft. The underwater radius of the aver-' age U-boat if less than 150 miles un-! der most favorable condition*. To get that distance it would have to travel at a rate of very few miles an hour.: tt Is argued therefor* that if by mean* ! of aircraft, destroyer* and all other, agenrie* fo' the destruction of subma rines a tone of 160 nOaa or less in 'width could b* drawn about the Ger man hiues or the entrant* of the I •.: . PUBITY or WATW IS ZEALOUSLY GUARDED Thiaiaomaof CW Inmm Why Sirlwi Now Play* Small Put hi War. London, Aug. $1.—la *11 wan that have prwdwl thu war of tha world, ■icknou Kaa boon raaponaibla for ■ vary big parrantaga of tha total caau alttaa. Bat in tha atruggla which la now going on In various parta of tha aarth tha lurpriaing fact Is that aiek naaa ia playing a vary wnall part in daad. Many thinr* hava eombinad In making thka aa aeeompliahad fact; ■anitatlon haa baan brought to a Ana art, for ona thing, bat tha moat impor tant of all ia, aaya a atatamant from a Britiah official aourea, that "Empira Tommy" haa baan particularly wall lookad aftar in raapact of hia drinking watar. Water mean* everything to the righting man. Impure water, and than you gat aicknaaa. Water properly dealt with and treated, and there la very little sickness. And for the way fn which Tommy haa obtained hU drinking water aa he has done, there ia one branrh of the service that haa to be thanked. They dog well* at Gallipoli, they iooked after the tanks away in the desert on either side of Egypt, they solved the water problem* in Mesopotamia, and in France they did everything that was to be done iiv this connection. There haa been plenty of Water in France, in the villagen,and far too much, not of the drinking variety, in the trenches at times. The problem has been to take it where it was want ed and remove it from where it was • burden. The nyntem is now aa near perfect a< it can be. But every drop of drinking water has to be passed by the medical officer before it has been drunk by the soldiers. On thousands of wells today are the little notice Imards: , "This water is fit for wa,thing." This water must be boiled before be ing drunk." "This water must not be used unless treated as ordered." The royal engineers have worked day and night in making things right for the boys. This has been done all over France behind the British front, and the water supply has been kept right on the heel* of the advancing troops all the while. , Water cart* have carried the water right up to the support linen, on hun dreds of occasion*. The water has been cholorinated in these carta, and the (rood* have been delivered exactly on time. Chlorinated water is not pleasant stuff to drink at all times, even tea will not always disguise its taste, but its purity is guaranteed. That is the principal thing, for when a soldier's tongue is hanging out of his mouth with thirst he is inclined to chance things, and to drink anything that may come his way. Horse*, too, as well a* men, require | water. For them, huge canvas tanks, have been erected and filled from a • mall iron pipe, running, perhaps, from a point seven or eight miles I away. Steam pumps for deep wells have had to be brought up and Axed, and thousands of petrol tins, carefully cleaned and Ailed with Tatar, have had to be stored in the trenches in case of any sudden emergency arising. The Hun, too, is not idle, he rut* the water *upply whenever possible, "Plunk" comes a 4.9 on top of a pipe.) and "whooah" away goes the water. The repair ha* to be done at once, and' it is done. Up comes the sappers at j the run and the break Is either plug-I or the fractured pipe U cut out and another piece fitted in Its place. | It all depend* how hot the shelling may be, but not much lime Is wasted.' That is how Tommy get* hi* water at the front. Great Faith 1* Chamberlala'a Colic i and Diarrhora Keaiedy. "Chamberlain'* Colic and Diarrhoea j Remedy was used bv my father about; a year ago when he nad diarrhoea. It relieved hi— Immediately and by tak ing three doses he was absolutely cured. Hi ha* trtmt faith In (his remedy," writes Mrs. W. H. Williams, Stanley, N. Y. dHlstuiii T y: fi ■ iflMsii Raiaigft, N. C., Aus. II.— Many bwN»ivM, canning far tha Irat Ujm thia «aa»aa, And that tbay *n htvloc unaxapctod trouble with • pat daai of tha mtUrtal being pat up in the hum*. Ham* of thii have ronrludad that ilia wbota proposition ia a fake, and that it daaa not pay to try to pat up thia valuabla atuff. Mm. J ana ■. McKimmon of tlu Agricultural Biton aion .Service at tha Callage and Da partmant of Agriculture haa foraaaan a great deal of troubla and la offaring tha following •uggeationa to ovaar roma it aa much aa poaaibla. Rabkera Giving Trouble. First and foramoat rubbara ara riv ing mora troubla than anything alaa to esnnara ia glaaa thia aummar. Many of than aaam to ba of vary poor qual ity indaad, diaintag rating quickly whan aubjacted to hoat or ■train. I hava found, after taating, that a good rod rubbor ia beet, and that, ganarally apaaking, tha rubbara which coma on tha jara ara not to ba truated. Maka up your mind to got good rubbara, and buy tham from a merchant who aella enough to inaura hia having a naw atock. .Shrinkage of Water In Jari. Many enthusiastic cannar* hava been much dieturhed by tha shrinkage of water in tha jara of beans, peas and other vegetables after they hava bean processed or boiled. Thia ia due to the fact that theae vegetables con tain air in their pods, or even in their tisauea, and when thia air ia driven off by the heat, the bailing water ruahes in to take ita place. In consequence we have an apparent shrinkage in the amount of water, to remedy thia, the top may be removed from the jar, just ten minutea before it ia to be taken from the canners, and boiling water may be added until the jar ia quite full. Replace the top and allow the jar te remain ten minutea longer in the canner. Berries or Fruit Hieing to the Top To prevent berries or fruits rising to the top of the jar and leaving an excels of juice at the ix.it..m alway • blanch these products before oacking into a jar. If I should be canning blackberries, the fruit would be plac ed in a bag and plunged into boiling water (blanched) for one minute, and then plunged into cold. I should ex pect it to emerge somewhat foatened, though still firm, and in just the con dition to be packed very closely in a jar—so closely, in fact, that it would be poaaible to add very little syrup. When a jar thus packed i> processed, or boiled, for the propel* length of time, the berries will extend from the bottom to the top of the container, and not be floating aa would un blanched fruit. Peaches, apples, and other fruits are treated in the same way. By the way. if you desire well flavored fruit, always add sugar in the form of syrup. ' I does not take much with blanched fruits, and the grade of the product ia infinitely bet-1 I have said much about not canning green fruit, but it will not hurt to emphasize the fact that it will give yob a poorly flavored and a poorly colored article. You cannot make a good product out of a poor one by can ning. Peeled Frmit Disrloring. Plunge peeled apple*, peaches, or pear* immediately into cold water to prevent them from turning dark. On the other hand, to keep beets from fading or bleeding, wash well, but do not peel, and start rooking in boiling water. Peel before packing in jan, and cut ax little a* possible. Flat Sours. Did you ever have vegetables in tin cans to become sour, even though they gave you no aign of the state of affairs by swelling at the end ? Thene are what are called flat soar*, and are caused by imperfect sterilization. Rome foods are attacked by bar-; teria which thrive without the pre*-, ence of air and decompose canned, foods without forming gas. Hi*' condition la found frequently when! stale vegetables are canned. Ova Do Mbt fill Jars or cans too full ol To The Coal Buying People of Mt. Airy Wa have been reading the newspaper dispatches, closely, hoping that tha coal prices would be reduced by the Government, but And the following conditions: let. The food control bill under which the President received hie authority for hie proclamation deals with contracts existing at the time any prices are fixed, in the following language: "The maximum prices so Axed and published shall not be construed as invalidating and contract in which prices are Axad, made in good faith, prior to the establish ment and publication of maximum prices by the commis sion." The coal contracts of all coal shippers are made around April 1st of each year, and to those who have nq contracts the price of 92.00 per ton, net, P. O. B. mines is a myrth, as practically every mine contracted before the end of April all the coal they would be able to produce and in many, many cases they sold more coal than they are getting out. Correspondence with different coal shippers at the time of the-13.00 per ton agreement developed the fact that all shippers were short of cars and would not ac cept any orders at all. The question so far as we can see it, narrows down to the fact that coal at any price will be scarcer this Winter than last as many mines report only four days per week for their working days, account of thp car shortage which is bound to tfrow worse. This is not written to worry «my one at all, but is a dear statement of the fact* to th« best of our knowledge, and is not intended to maUe yon rush your orders in for coal, right now. although tne only safe plan will be to put your coal in this month and next or very likely you will be unable to get any coal at all during the coming fall and Winter months, for possibly one or two weeks at the time. The present price of coal, which has not been re duced to us by one solitary cent, is $8.00 per ton, deliv ered in usual hauling limits. Phone 272 Shelton Phone 272 corn. Leave fully one inch of apace at the top. When packing the corn, pour in water until the can is almoet full. When the com (well*, the water will be absorbed. We are receiving a good many com plaint! from person* trying to can corn, peas, butterbeane, and such veg- j etables by processing for three hours, on one day in a hot-water canner. This j la not a safe method. Vegetables | must be at exactly the right stage and absolutely fresh to give good results under such treatment, and as 'nine nut of ten packs are not taken at the right stage, we advise by all means that ranrers use the three-day process. Uudoubedly, bacteria are killed by the one-day rooking, but the tem perature of boiling water is not suf ficient to kill the spores. These de velop on the second day into bacteria, and may he killed by a second lwiling. Some last over until the third day, and it is at the third processing only that we can be sure we have destroy ed them. Austria Expected to Declare War Soon. Washington, Aug. 28. — Tremen dous increase in assistance given by this government to th« enemy in a declaration of war on the United States by the dual monarchy. Ad mitting such action is believed inevit able eventually, the slate department said today that if war comes it will be on Austria's initiative. TKs dis sipated all daubts in Italan quarters that this government is going the "whole route" to furnish supplies for the Italian offensive. It also claimed recent unrest shown lest this country effect a separate agreement with Aus tria, depriving Italy of her war aim*. !
