Gen. rershing Wants Xtne Pair of
Shoes a Year for Men Serving
in France. ,
Gen. Pershing has requested ship
ment of 18,590 pairs of shoes for
each 25,000 men monthly, which is
approximately nine pairs of shoes per
man per year. This quantity is in ex
cess of actual consumption and is be
ing used to build up a reserve for all
tcoops in France. When such a sup
ply is accumulated, the quantities per
man will be reduced.
The Quartermaster General's De
partment now has on hand and due
on outstanding contracts, 7,564,000
Held shoes and 7,873,000 marching
shoes. It will be necessary to secure
more than a million additional shoes
during the year.
With Hundreds of Men Learning to
Fly Accidents Are Few.
, Records of the War Department
show that from the beginning of
training in June, 1917, to February
22, 1918. the fatalities at military av
iation fields in this country have been
51; 10 offlceis and 29 cadets killed in
training flights, and 12 men killed in
unauthorized flights and ground acci
dents. Since the training began In the
United States, student aviators have
flown considerably more than 100,000
miles. Hundreds of hitherto inexper
ienced men have been learning to fly.
Their early flights are under the gui
dance of Instructors, and prior to
these flights two or more months are
spent in preliminary ground work.
There comes a time, however, when
every student aviator must take his
machine up alone, and every precau
tion has been taken to reduce the
number of accidents and safeguard
the aviator in his solo flights.
Food and Fuel Supplies Are Short in
Many European Countries.
A Swiss commercial paper states
that there is a great shortage in coal
of all kinds, an insufficient supply of
wood for fuel, and small reserves In
oils and grease throughout Switzer
land. Fresh eggs have disappeared
from the market. Dry vegetables are
becoming more scarce. A project to
manufacture flour from potatoes had
to be abandoned because sufficient
supplies of potatoes could not be se
cured. V;
In Holland coal and coke prices
have been advanced. In American
terms, the maximum price for anthra
cite is about $22 a ton'; coke, $10 a
ton; coal briquets, $25 a ton. Dis
tribution is carefully regulated by
cards, in specified quantities. The
amount allowed, especially to resi
dence, Is much smaller than in peacu
times.
New French food regulations for
bid eating houses to serve or con
sume freBh or packed butter other
wise than in the preparation of food.

well as cream and specified kinds of
cheese. The making of pastries, bis
cuits, and confectionary is prohibited.

served after nine in the tuornini?, by
itself or mixed with coffee, teaor
other preparation. No solid foods
may be served between 9 and 11 in
the morning and between 4:30 ami
8:30 in the evening. When the price

DeimHinent ftf Agriculture Rewi'ts
Increased Consumption of
Sugar.
The amount of sugar consumed in
1917 in the United States was about
88.3 pounds per capita, according to
figures Issued by the Department of
Agriculture. The average annual
consumption for the five-year period
ending in 1916 was 84.7 pounds per
capita. I
There were about 1,500,000,000
pounds of commercial stocks of sugar
on hand August 31, 1917, compared
to 2,000,000,000 pounds on the same
date in 1916. New York reported
the largest stocks, followed in order
by California and Louisiana.

Airplane Motor Tested Ik Altitude
Room' at Washing! md.
When the first Liberty motor was
ready to be tested it was takes to i
Pike's Peak that it might be studied j
while running under atmospheric !
conditions obtaining at high- altitudes, j
This difficulty of bringing the motor
to the mountain is now overcome, at
the Department of Commerce Bur
eau of Standards si Washington, by
bringing the mountain to the motor.
Airplane motors are now tested at
the Bureau of Standards in a labor
atory where various conditional cor
responding to high altitudes and low
temperatures are secured. The en
gine is placed in an sir-tight con
crete room, provided among ether
things with refrigerator colls and
large pump to reduce the pressure
of the air. By nse of this snoaratax
motors may be observed under condi
tions similar to those at different al
titudes, which might otherwise be
done only by actual airplane Bights.
