A STRATEGIC RETREAT.
HINDKNI5UR0 is reported by the Amsterdam press to
Imvp ndvociitcd another si rateirie withdrawal of tier-
man troops to tht! Meii.se to shorten the line. For making
similar suggestions two years ago, Falkenhayn lost his job
as chief of the German staff.
Quotations from German newspapers show that they
are already discussing such a withdrawal. Recent defeats,
though camouflaged as victories by the official statements,
have given the Germans the blues. The "victories"
mark retreats toward Berlin, not advances toward Paris.
That a withdrawal is even talked about shows plainly

of tensive and is a confession that the great drive for Paris
I and winning the war is a 1 lzzle.
"Whether or not Germans can light a losing battle, such
as the allies have fought for four years, without losing
their morale, remains to be seen. Though constantly sus
tained by victories, it lias been a laborious effort to keep
the Germans united, to continue the struggle. Now that
the promise of victory has proven a vanishing mirage and
famine and privation ravage the land there is always the
menace of collapse of war weary people.
Few nations have the fighting stamina of the British
and French. Napoleon saioj that the British never won a
battle, save tho lost oue and after all, the finish is decis
ive. At all events, the allies are going to win the final vic
tory in this war and have already begun a successful series.
As yet few Americans have been used probably 200,
000 in the Maine struggle and a division on the Soinnie.
Wit h over 1,:!00,0()0' Yankees in France, 850,000 of them
fighting troo s, with the number increasing 300,000 a
month, Foch h:is ample reserves to keep the Hun on
the run. . '..
Much hard fighting is still in store. Already the kaiser
is utilizing Austrian troops to reinforce his lines. At the
best, it will take over a year's hard fighting to conquer the
Germans and it may take from three to five years to break
through bis line after line of prepared defenses. But to
break them is the' task America has set herself to and
American has the man power and the resources to do it
with the aid of her allies and it will be done. "
SEIZING HUNGARY'S FOOD.
A VJKNXA dispatch recently stated: "It has been de
cided to make final the order to commandeer Hie
Hungarian harvest."
Hungary is the granery of Austria. Moreover Aus
trian crops are nearly a complete failure. But the pro
posal to rob the Hungarians of food to feed hungry Austria
threatens to create a revolution that will split the dual em
pire, for the Hungarians have no intention of starving to
help tint Austrians. '
As in former vein's, the Hungarian nobles and land
lords, owning most of the country and ruling it, verbally
agree to Hit? Austrian decree. but secretly as in the past,
nullify its provisions by encouraging hoarding of food
stocks throughout the land. .The grain is to he seized as
it is threshed and the peasants simply refuse to thresh
until the inspectors leave.- They have grown rich during
Ihe war at Austria's expense.
Any effort to forcibly seize the crops will precipitate
an uprising much more serious than that in the Ukraine
and grain can only be secured, despite the decree, by "ex
change for Austrian industrial articles at reasonable
prices" anil such Austrian products no longer exist.
Neither the Hungarian landlord, nor the peasantry, will
exchange on basis of government receipts or bills of ex
change or Ausl rian money, which has no value.
Austria therefore faces the alternative of forcible seiz
ure or starvation either of which means disaster.

HOW TO DRY
APPLES AND PEARS.
If the housekeeper purchases ap

winter varieties can 'be obtained, aa
theso have a higher sugar content
than do Iho Hummer varieties. Hut
If the homo orchard produces sum
mer npplos in excess of the Immedi
ate needs of the family, they should
by all means be preserved by drying,
as they give a dried product which Is
not at all to bo despised. Kven wind
falls, If reasonably well-grown, make
an acceptable addition lo the diet
when thoroughly dried.
To mako tho best grade of dried
fruit, tho apples used should bo ma
ture but not soft, and tree from
bruises due to rough handling. As
the flesh of apples discolors vory rap
Idly arter It Is exposed to tho air, the
work must bo so planned In advance
that tho fruit Is not permitted to
stand at any stage of t lie process
after Its preparation Is begun. If
several persons aro doing the work,
tills may be accomplished by dividing
the paring, curing and slicing, and
spreading ou trays so that any given
single fruit spends only two or three
minutes ou Iho way from tho paring

fruit either Into cold water or into a

port ions, ir a paring and coring ma

worked over with a knife In order to
remove any bits of core left by the
coring spoon. .Most .paring machines
have a slicing attachment which cuts
tho fruit into rings. If they must bo
sliced by hand care should be taken
to make the slices as nearly the same
thickness as posslblo in order that
they may dry uulfoimlyr 3-10 to Vt
of an inch Is the best thickness. It
preferred, apples may be quartered
or cut into eighths, but such pieces,
because of their Irregularity in slzo,
do not dry uniformly and there Is
also a tendency to dry at tho sur
face whllo Iho centers uro still too
moist for safety.
If tho hnuscwiAi desires lo make
an especially attractive white dry
product. It will be necessary to blanch
Iho fruit after It has been pared,
cored and sliced by a short treatment
with steam in order to prevent the

fruit. .does not .come Into actual con-j
tact with the water; replace the ltd, i
and allow the fruit to remain in the j
steam for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove,
spread In a single layer on trays, and I
at once place In die sun or la the
warm drier.
While this rather troublesome
treatment will result In tho, produc
tion of a white, Inviting product, it
retards the drying to some extent.
Tho somewhat brown or chocolate-
colored fruit produced by drying
without blanching 1b as. high In nutri
tive value and. as pleasing In flavor
as that obtained by blanching.
If apples are being dried In an
evaporator, tho temperature should
be 130 to 140 degrees when the fruit
is put in and the temperature should,
bo kept at this point until the fruit
has lost fts crlspncss and becomes
somewhat leathery. Tho heat may
then be Increased gradually this
may be accomplished by moving par
tially dried downward in the evapora
tor but should never exceed 180 de
grees. The trays should be examin
ed from time to time, particularly
when nearly done, to guard against
ovordrying or scorching.
The fruit la sufficiently dry when
a handful of pieces, if firmly pressed
together, have un clastic, springy
feel and separate promptly when ro
leased without leaving visible mo Us
ture upon the hands. It should not
be possible to press moisture out of
the freshly torn surfaces of the
pieces.
As soon as it is taken from the
drier the fruit should bo placed In a
large wooden or pastboard box, lined
with newspapers and covered with
muslin to exclude insects, and stirred
at intervals of a day or two, mixing
the older portions thoroly with each
new batch as it is put in. The box
should be placed in a warm, dry,
darkened room, so that drying may
slowly continue by loss at moisture
to the warm atmosphere. After ten
days to two weeks of this treatment
the fruit may be placed in permuncnt
containers for Storage.
Pears receive the same general
treatment as apples. They should lie
mature but not soft, and may advan
tngeously be stored for a few days
to ripen after picking. For homo use
they aro prepared by flaring,, split
ting into quarters or eighth, coring
and removing the stem: .It Is neces
sary to wqrk rupldly after peeling to
avoid discoloration, nnd all that lias
been said as to methods of prevent
ing darkening in apples by tho use of
salt water and blanching in steam
applies equally to pears. They should
be dried at the same temperatures
recommended for apples, but drying
should be continued until the pieces
have almost lost their elasticity and
become somewhat crisp and brittle.
Aftcrcure drying by placing in a box
and stirring as will apples.

100 Passenger Filer
At the Aero club of America today
I discussed the 100-pnsenger flyer
with a number of American nnd allied
aeronaiilienl engineers, not one of
whom doubted for u moment that the
era of the passenger plane is now
dawning. The collective views of
these experts were .summed up by
llenrv W'onilhouse, n governor of the
Aero club, author of the Textbook of
Military Aeronautics, ns follows:
"Ho great has been the recent im
proveinents in nirplane motors nnd
so successful has tho application of
fundamental engineering principles
been applied lo airplane construction
that the obstacles that lor so long
stood in the way of making larger
airplanes have now been eliminated.
"The world's leading aeronautical
engineers, like Handley-Pnge, Capro
ni and C'urtiss agree that aeroplanes
and dirigibles can now be built to a!
most any size.
No Ileal Obstacles
"The so-eulled fundamental limits
against building large planes are
purelv obsessions of men with single
track; minds. The following sliow

'proved beyond question' that heavier-thau-air
machines were impossible.
Later it was said (hat the n il of a
gun or dropping of a bomb heavier
than 511 pounds would upset an air
plane; that a machine equipped with
two motors would be unable to lift its
own weight, and that if one motor
stopped the uutcliine . would spm
around. All these 'impossible' things
are now realities.
According to Mr. Woodliouse a ma

not have to lie more than twice us

today. The largest Cnproni is it lo

One hundred pasengers weighing on
tile average l.")0 pounds total 13,000
pounds, or a little over six tons.

says iiiai ii w.is me iiiiviii
allies to overrun the German defense
system along this front, which was
onlv weaklv fortified. It says Unit
there has been no time lo construct
permanent defenses. The dispatch
reads :
"Under the protection of a short
but extremely intense artillery lire the
enemy armies tried lo cut lanes
through the German infantry and
artillery lines by tun., squadrons.
Then tho cavalry, supported by the
tanks was rushed through the in
fantry lines in order to reach on the
first day of the offensive a high road
between Pennine and lioye.
"Failure of this plan was due to
the heroic resistance of trench gar
risons which at many points held
their positions until surrounded. In
the hurricane of fire, all telegraph
and telephone communications broke
down. Signal rockets were invisible
in the thick fog, and while Ihe gun
ners continued to put down u barrage
fire before them they suddenly found
the tanks upon their flank and rear
whose machine gun fire laid terrible
havoc in their ranks.
"Quick as lightning, gun after gun
would he swung around and blaze into
the tanks tit short range, while other
guns would continue to let down bar
rage fire to impede bringing up Eng
lish reserves. In other batteries the
last surviving officers kept up ma
chine gun fire for hours, even suc
ceeding in fighting their way through
to the (lerman line.
"The English nnd French began the
second day's offensive with tank at
tacks, but weakened hy the losess of
the previous day they did not display
