VIOLATE FOOD RULES
Illicit Trade Is Spreading in
Germany.k
fmuggiing and Usury Increase?
Courts Crowded With Thoee
Who Break Uw?.
Oohlen*.?Illicit trade In food, with
Its attendant evils of smuggling and
usury, Is on the increase throughout
Germany, urcordlng to newspaper ae*
count*.
Tht? rationing system hus never
been abandoned even In the occupied
areas of U?c Ithhielaud. and sum? of
the newspapers contend that the- aver
age Individual cannot subsist on the
itiii<>11 itt of food Issued. The author*
Itleo arc making every effort to check
the Illegal t raffle In food* of all kinds,
and the courts arc crowded day after
day.
Smuggling of potatoes In being car
ried on this winter In all parts of Ger
many on a scale greater than In war
time, Germany produced an excellent
potato crop this year, and the author
ities are trying to save It from .falling
Into the hands of the speculators.
Well-to-do people have been going to
Bavaria from Prussia, Wuertteinberg
and Thurln?la to buy potatoes, eggs
and fats, for which the farmers
chanted exorbitant prices. This
worked a hardship on the poorer peo
ple. who could not compete with them.
Living appears to be Cheaper In Ba
varia ?tl?an elsewhere In Germany.
Butter has been selling there at 5
marks a pound, compared with 30
marks In Berlin. Eggs are quoted at
23 pfennigs each, white In Berlin they
cost^l.TH marks apiece. Eggs In the
occupied area have been bringing
from 2 to 2vr?0 marks each this winter,
but are very scarce at any price.
Meat Is also reported as fairly plen
tiful In Bavaria, although In all other
states this form of food Is virtually
unpurchasahle by householders through
regular channels excepting oncfe or
twice each month, when the author
ities permit n few ounces to be dis
tributedI by the ?artf system to the In
dividuals.
? Most of the hotels throughout Ger
many continue to serve meat three or
four days each week, however. The
proprietors say they obtain tills from
Bfolland and that this does not violate
eitoe"food regulations.
MASTODONS BATHED THERE
Popular California Beach Wat Onoe
? Used by 'Prehistoric Herd, Bays ~
Scientist.
Alameda, Gal.?The Alameda beach,
which attracts thousands of bathers
.yearly, wan once the bathing place of
a herd of prehistoric mastodons, some
of them grOwljng*to a height of thir
teen feet, according to Willis Drake
Winetrout, former professor of the
University of Wisconsin and a member
of the United 6tatea .Board for Re
search, who has just completed a study
pi the ^iameda inland.
Winetrout ma<le a special trip to
California to investigate a report that
an elephant's track measuring nearly
?'too feet across had been discovered In
Solid rock burled two feet under mud
and sand just ofT the Alameda beach.
The discovery of the track was made
last July-by a party of bather* ata
time when the+tlde was but. Among
the bathers was Allan Lewis of New
Jerseyva former student of Winetrout,
who made known the discovery to
Winetrout ^ind-sent a map showingthe
exact location of the elephant's foot*
print, which is about 100 yards from
the foot of Bay street. . . H
WORM DESTROYS PULP WOOD
Kilts It Off Faster Than It Grows,
Says Report of Canadian Com
mission.
? Ottawa.?The pulp wood supply In
Canada Is large, but much of It Is in
accessible for commercial purposes,
according to a report of the commis
sion on conservation, made public to
day. 'An enormous annual destruction
by the bud worm is reported.
Clyde Leavltt, the- commission's
chief forester, gives the following es
timate on provincial supplies of wood
pulp:
Quebec, 300,000,000 cords; British
Columbia, 255,000,000; Ontario, 200,
000,000; New Brunswick, 33,000,000.:,
Nova Scotia, 30,000,000. There is lit
tle information available concerning
the supply In prairie provinces.
Losses from bud worm ore so enor
mous that they far overbalance the
annual growth In Canada and the
United States, tliu lepuit states.
Wild Ducks Not Scared
by Those Men Who Fly
Washington.?Airplanes do not
bother wild ducks*, the army air
service announces, and sports
men who believe they do are
unduly alarmed.
?T/letifCot. "II. M. Hickman,
when In command of Dorr and
Chisholm fields, flew twice *
day for "severfcT months OVer a
swamp that was the feeding
place of %lld ducks. To flush
the fowl he had to pilot his
?plane within 150 or 100 "feet of
the surface. But when he
would take off the dncks would
Immwratety return to the
swamp.

A CHALMERS
with an Elegant 7\[ew Body
IT is new, will no doubt
be widely copied ii> an
. other year, and expresses
elegance. It is "cut" high in
the front at the radiator line>
and low from the windshield
back.
%
You sit close to the ground;
the side line is considerably
lower than in any previous
Chalmers.
Seats are lower, tilt more;
you cling to the seat cushion,
and you have abundance of
foot room, front jtnd rear.
In detail this new body
possesses a completeness, a
finality that seems impossible
to improve upon.
Underneath the body is the
same, unchanged Chalmers
chassis that is well nigh fault'
less.
Hot Spot and RamVhorn
* continue in their original and
t masterly way to get out all
tne power that nature put
into gas, though the complaints
against the grade of gas today
increase daily.
There's a limit to the sup>
ply of the new Chalmers, but
there seems to be nolimit to the
number of those who insist
on one.
As a word of warning?see
thip new Chalmers immedi*
ately.

Weak Links in a Strong Chain
That's ju*t what imitation parts are when they become a part of your
Ford car. They look strorigr enough, but the metal is not there? the
itgong, durable Vanadium steel that goes into the Ford chassis and every
Ford part. Ford parts are specially cast and heat-treated, each ac
cording to i s use. Some require a hard, flint-like wearing surface, oth
ers need res'lency, and some need just "toughness."
Ford met illurgists have been studying these problems for 16 years
and know jjst how each unit should be made to endure a maximum of
wear and teaar. They know that best results can be obtained only by
the use of special formulas for dirtQrent parts, and that honest?Ford
parts wear from thirty-five to one hundred per cent longer than counter
feits.
We carry complete assortments of genuine Ford parts for both passen
ger cars an! trucks. And our garage is equipped to give careful and
prompt Fori service?from minor adjustments to complete overhauls.
Drive in, it's better to be safe than sorry. Come to the Authorized Ford
dealer for service. r
