lack of Honey Forces Soviets in
Russia to Exchange of Goods. .
MOSCOW, July 29 (delayed) (Cor
respondence of the Associated Press).
?The lack of money and the great
depreciation of the Russian ruble has
compelled the soviet government to
resort to the primitive form of trade
?exchange of goods. This form has
been applied In Russia in a limited
degree, bcause of lack of manufac
tured articles, the government giving
the peasants agricultural machinery,
leather. goods, nails, matches and
other such necessaries and receiving
the equivalent value In grain.
It Is the intention of the depart
ment of food to Introduce the ex
change of goods system into Interna
tional trade and for this purpose it
sent a special emissary to Norway
to negotiate with the Norwegian gov
ernment.

TREASURY REVEALS SOME BIG
THINGS DONE WITH VAST SUMS
Funds Derived From Bonds, War Stamps
and Taxation Have Brought Results
on Battlefield.
Some interesting statistics relating*
to the use made by the government
of the funds derived from, war sav
ings stamps, liberty bonds and taxes
in connection with the war work have
lust been made public by the Treas
ury Department. These figures show
in detail just what has been accom
plished and give concrete evidence of
the results of the work of the past
eighteen months.
In this time the War Department
has raised, equipped, trained, and with
naval help transported across the sea
upward ox a million and a half sol
diers and has practically as many
more under training at home. The
number of American soldiers lost in
transit as a result of U-boat attacks
was less than 500 up to September 1
last.
More than 2,000,000 rifles of the new
191,7 model, considered by many ex
perts the best Army rifle in the world,
have in this time been made, inspected,
assembled and issued, and the weekly
production is growing. It is thought
not desirable, for military reasons,
to state the exact output of larger
guns and munitions, but the volume
; of this production, already large, is
steadily mounting.
For Ordnance Program.
The total amount of money directly
appropriated by Congress for the ord
nance program, or for which authori
zation has been given to incur obli
gations, amounts to approximately
$12,000,000,000 since the beginning of
the war. Contracts placed by the ord
nance department up to the last day
of the last fiscal year were $4,300,
000,000, and it is estimated that dur
ing the present fiscal year they will
total $7,000,000,000.
Tt is recognized that the American
Army is well clothed and fed, but
some illustrative figures of quarter
master purchase* are particularly il
luminating. For this purpose, six
standard articles of food are detailed.
Since the beginning of this govern
ment's participation in the war there
have been bought for army use ?15.
461,392 pounds of flour, at a cost of
$37,000,000; 1S6.5S2.31S pounds of
suear. at a cost of $14,452,512: 110.
431.670 pounds of bacon, at a cost of
143.375.445: 102,S94,742 pounds of dry
beans, at a cost of $12,613.40, and $$.
421.256 pounds of rice, at a cost of $2.
773,519. These are only a few of the
items on the Army's bill of fare, but
they give an idea of the sixe of Uncle
Sam's market basket.
The monster task of clothing the
American soldier from head to foot
is shown by the Army's clothing bill
from April 1, 1917. to August 1, 1918,
which totaled $S39,$81,170.
Miscellaneous Items.
Axes and helves bought for the
i Army since the commencement of the
war amounted to 5,121.729 and cost
! $6,397,961. There are 34.872 rolling
kitchens, which cost $47,480,000; 3$,
427 field ranges, costing $1,635,994, and
109.306 carpenters; chests, costing $2.
732,650. The Army is using 2.574,982
shovels, costing $1 each; $1,392,500
lantern globes, costing 30 cents each;
105,727 desks, costing $1,377,360; 47,
541 portable forges, costing $950,820.
and 5,600 blacksmiths' chests, costing
$224,000.
There have been contracted for 106.
000 motor trucks of all types, sizes
and styles, costing $240,315,000; 10.700
passenger cars, costing $12,275,000:
54.000 motor cycles, costing $10,255,000.
together with many thousand bicycles
and cargo and tank trailers. Of
wagons and carts the total is 266,000
and the cost $37,025,000. There are
28.772 Horses and 131,917 mules and
their forage has cost $61,564,980; the
harness bill runs to $29,040,000.
MARKETING GUIDE FOR WASHINGTON
CONSUMERS.
Prices to retailers and general market information furnislied by bureau of markets,
% United States Department of Agriculture, fair prices to consumers, by the District
Food Administration.
ABI XDAXT?Onion., green tomatoen, pumpkin*. ?qua?h. peppers, cab
bage, turnips, potatoes, cooking: apples, spinach.
NORMAL?Lima and string beans, carrots, eggplant, parsnips, kale.
beets, eating apples, lettuce, ripe tomatoes, sweet cora.
SCARCE?Oranges, bananas, oyster plant, grapes, grapefruit, lemons.
A WAR NECESSITY?EAT O.MOXS.
The war necessity for eating: more onions continues unabated- The
onion-growing sections of the country have large crops this year, and
as a result the common yellow onion at present represents one of the
best values on the market.
The "fair retail price" today is only 8 to 11 cents per quarter peck.
Onions are a valuable food product. A pound of onions contains more
than t^o-thirds the food value of a like quantity of fresh milk. Health
authorities claim that they are one of the most healthful vegetables that
can be eaten. These reasons should justify the housewife in using
them in every possible way during the next few months.
STUFFED OMOXS.
Peel as many large onions as there are people to serve. Place in
a saucepan and boil until tender, but not done. Remove from the water
(saving the water for other use) and take out the centers. Chop these
centers and mix with a minced hard-boiled egg and a little parsley.
Add enough bread crumbs to make the mixture thick enough to stuff
the onions well. Season with salt and paprika. Fill the onions, which
should have been placed in a baking dish. Brush with bread crumbs,
aot with butter substitute and finish baking.
Grated cheese sprinkled on the top is a decided addition.
The fair prices to consumers given below cover those charged by
both "cash-and-carry" and "credit-and-delivery" retailers. "Cash-and
carry" retailers should sell near the lowest figure given. Unless other
wise stated, all prices are for products of good quality.
If consumers are charged, on any day, prices in excess of those
published on that day in the "fair-price-to-consumers" column, they
should immediately bring the matter to the attention of the agent of
the District of Columbia Food Administration, office 264 B street wing,
Center market.

ATLANTIC IS "BRIDGED"
BY SHIPYARD EFFORT
Director General Schwab Tells of
Foor Hundred Million Feet of
Lumber Sent East Coast.
Approximately four hundred million
feet of yellow pine lumber has been
cut and transferred to the shipyards
on the Atlantic coast and used in the
conatructlon of wooden vessels by the
Emergency Fleet Corporation, accord
ing to a report filed by the lumber di
vision of the corporation. A bridge
with a floor one inch thick and twen
ty-five feet wide could be built across
the Atlantic with this amount of lum
ber.
To build 275 ships, in course of con
struction a short time ago, it was nec
essary to have 475,000.000 feet of lum
ber. The figures given do not apply
to the needs of vessels in course of
construction or provided for in Pacific
coast yards. Director General Schwab
said. Mr. Schwab called attention to
the fact that Chairman Hurley said a
few months ago It may be necessary
to bridge the Atlantic. This, in a
sense, has actually been done, the di
rector general said.
From the Pacific coast and the
southern territories more than forty
thousand carloads of lumber have al
ready been moved. When the rail
roads were congested last winter by
coal and labor shortage a fleet of
twelve vessels moved lumber from
Port Arthur, Tex., and Gulfport. Miss
to Atlantic and gulf coast yards. It
was moved at the rate of 2,000.000
feet a day.

$*7,000,000.
The increase in exports was ac
counted for by the large shipments of

JAM SIRUP RATIONING
FOR BRITISH PEOPLE
Restrictions Apply Also to Honey,
Molasses and Marmalade?Ef
fective November 4.
The British people are to be put on
a strict ration as regards sirup, jam,
honey, molasses and marmalade, ac
cording: to information received by
the United States Food Administra
tion.
This new ration order becomes ef
fective November 4, and it is expected
the rationing of jam will be especially
discomforting: to the British people,
as they are great jam consumers. Be
sides, jam has been used to help out
the small butter ration of five ounces
a week. The fruit crops in England
were abnormally poor this year, prac
tically all the fruit produced being
bought for the army and navy for
jam-making purposes.
The British people have been on an
| allowance of two pounds of sugar a
month, the same basis as now exists
I in the United tates. The new regu
j lation will make it impossible to sup
I plement this ration with unlimited
supplies of other sweeteners, as exists
in the United States. The size of the
new ration will not exceed four
ounces per week. So long as the sup
I plies permit, however, a supplement
ary ration of two ounces per week
will be given children between six
and eighteen years.
