ITALY T0 SOLVE FOOD QUESTION Mobilization of Agricultural Forces Planned as Emergency War Measure. MEN TO BE FORCED TO WORK Radical Acticn Rendered Imperative by the Necessity of Providing Larger Landowners With Labor Needed to Handle Crops. Rome.—The first of a series of emer- gency war measures tending to im- prove as much as circumstances will permit the difficult food situation will be announced soon. The mobilization of all the agricultural forces of the country will be ordered and the new army sent to work wherever there ex- ists a scarcity of farm labor. According to the experts of the min- istry of agriculture, the radical meas- ure, for which there ts no precedent, was rendered imperative by the neces- sity of supplying the large landowners and the organizations which have en- gaged in agricultural enterprises on a large scale with all the labor they need for sowing and taking in the crop. The” scarcity of labor also has made impera- tive the co-ordination of work in farm- ing operations. $ Take Census of Farm Labor. The mobilization will take place un- der the direction of Agriculture! Min- ister Rainert, who will be assis by a few of the officers of the Italia.” gen- eral staff. The mayor of each town will be ordered to take the census of all the farm labor of both sexes in his district and state the approximate time needed for local farming work. The next step will be the compulsory en- listment of every man in a new army which will be under the command of regular petty officers, Active operations will begin early In March. Thanks to different climatic conditions the harvesting season in the south of Italy and in the islands is a month in advance on that of the North. Consequently the authorities expect to move the different agricultural units from place to place till every crop has been taken in and then repeat the op- eration next year for the plowing and sowing season. The general staff has promised its heartiest co-operation provided the military situation at the front im- proves or, at least, remains stationary. In this case two or three hundred thou- sand men will be temporarily released from the army and sent to work in the farming districts. The men and the women will be paid the prevailing rate of wages. Expect No Hitch. The authorities are confident the plan will work without a hitch, and if the results are as predicted, and if the prize and premium system falls, it {s not improbable that compulsory farming will be among the after war measures with which the government expects to solve some of the most dis- tressing problems connected with the resupplying and revictualing of the country. In connection with the present food situation Premier Orlando announced in. the chamber of deputies that it could not be improved even if hostill- ties ceased tomorrow, that the high cost of living and the scarcity of all the necessaries of life would continue for a long time after the conclusion of peace, and that the solution of the problem of supplies is that, today, the country must resupply itself or be con- tented with the little that can be im- ported from abroad. At the same time the premier said that before long the people will be called upon to make additional sacri- fices, and that in order to increase the ration of the men in the trenches new food restrictions would be imposed on the country at large. NOW IT’S “KNITTING NERVES” New York Physical Director Says It’s Due to Improper Handling of Needles. New York.—Now it’s “knitting nerves” caused. by concentration of mind and hand on the needles. Thou- sands of women in New York are af- flicted, according to Dr. Louis R. Welz- miller, physical director of the West Side Y. M. G. A. who adds that his only patients that show symptoms of the: new war-time complaint have been women. Dr. Welzmiller says that there is Hable to be an epidemic of “knitting nerves” unless knitters learn to knit properly. Dr. C, P. Christenson, president of the’ Psychological Research society, said: “The «wemen are overworking themselves. Knitting has become a craze. Nerves cannot stand this strain.” VICTIM OF GERMAN RAID ENLISTS IN RED CROSS Chicago.—Miss Victorine Van Dyke, whose home was destroyed when the kalser’s army crushed Belgium and who escaped from Germay bondage and came to Chicago, is on her way back to her war broken country to ald the Red Cross. Her mother ts In Belgium and her two soldier brothers are pris- oners in German prison camps. MAKING BARBER COATS NO EXEMPTION EXCUSE New York.—Michael Feldstein, while filling out a government questionnaire, sought exemp thun from military duty on the ground he manufactured mili- tary uniforms, When the ex- emption board learned that Michael made “coats of military cut for barbers,” recommenda- tions were made that “Michael would look fine in a coat of mil- itary cut, but which is-not worn by the barber shop brigade.” EAT MORE POTATOES Iricreased Use Will Bring About Saving of Grain. Agricultural Department Suggests Tu- bers Be Given More Prominent Place in Luncheons, Washington.—The eating of more potatoes for supper, or for luncheon, if the family is accustomed to have din- ner at night, is a suggestion of the United Statés department of agricul- ture, in order that the tremendous crop of tubers produced in the United States this year may be utilized as fully as possible and spoilage avoided. Such Increased use should, at the same time, bring about a saving of grain, since one common result of eating more potatoes Is the eating of less wheat bread, which ts a reasonable suggestion when one remembers that both of them are used as a source of starch in the diet. This reduction in grain consumption ts desirable, the de- partment points out, and there is great need of grain for shipment to our sol- diers and to the soldiers and civilians of other countries engaged with us in the war against Germany. The use of more potatoes for lunch- eon should be a simple matter, in the opinion of specialists of the depart- ment of agriculture, since practically all Americans like potatoes and since there are numerous ways tn which the tubers may be prepared to avoid: a sameness in the diet. Potatoes, even in their simplest forms—baked and boiled—make good luncheon dishes. They may also be used for making a variety of dishes, such as creamed and escalloped potatoes, with or with- out cheese; stuffed potatoes, potato croquettes, and so on. Combination dishes, such as hash, stews, meat pies with potato crust, and so on, in which a considerable amount of potato is used with other foods, may constitute practically an entire luncheon, being hearty enough to serve for the purpose with a little salad or fruit or sweets. DIDN’T WANT TO BOO PAPA Why Sacha Guitry, the French Play- wright, Abandoned His Big Success. Paris.—Sacha Guitry, whose amus- ing play “L’Iltusionniste,” has been one of the big successes of the season, sud- denly decided to bring tts run to a close. His excuse was that he want- ed to go to the Riviera for the win- ter. His manager, when told of the unexpected decision, remonstrated with him. “What's the idea?” he said. “Your play is running to packed houses. Why are you closing it up?” sons,” replied the author-actor. * “Would it be indiscreet for me to ask what these reasons are?” Iinsist- ed the manager. “My father is going to put on a new play in one of the Boulevard thea- ters.” “Well—and what of it?” “You ask me what of it? Why, sim- ply that Iam a dutiful son and I'don’t want to boo papa.” f THIS SOUNDS A LITTLE FISHY Fish, Perch and Trout Fall to Find Sammon in Kansas City Hotel. Kansas, City, Mo—“Call for Mr. S-a-m-m-o-n; call for Mr, S-a-m- m-o-n!” called a lusty bellhop at the Hotel Meihlebach. An elderly man walked up to the boy and said; “My name’s Perch, and, though they often call me Fish, I’ve never been called Sammon. Maybe that’s for me.” “That's one for me, too,” sald an- | other man who overheard the conver- sation. “My name’s Fish.” Fish and ‘Perch walked over to the clerk's desk and: explained their troubles, and just then a man walked up and registered: “J. D. Trout—St. Louis, Mo.” The three men agreed it must be a new-found aquarium, as they walked to the bar, where they got on “swim- mingly.” HAIL AND FAREWELL Anne Higginson Spicer of The Vigilantes, | Dogs barking, dust a-whirling; And drumthrobs in the street, The braggart pipes are skirling An old tune, wild and sweet.
