Watch Your Kitchen Waste

T
A large part of the $500, 000.-
900 estimated food waste in this
country is good food which is al
lowed to get into garbage pals
and kitchen sinks.
Dom throw out any leftovers
that can be reheated or combined
with other foods to make it pal
atable and 'nourshing dishes.
DO YOU KNOW
That every bit of uneaten GER
cal can be used to thicken soups
stews. or gravies?
That stale bread can be used
as the basis for many attractive
meat dishes. hot breads, and de-
serts?
That every ounce of Skinned
milk contains valuable noursh-
ment? Use every drop of milk
to drink or to add nourishmect
to cereals, soups, sauces and 9TH
er foods. If you do not want
milk to sour. keep it cool. clean.
and covered continually. Re-
member too, that sour milk. but
termilk. and sour cream are val
liable in cookery; so do not waste
any.
That every spoonful of left
over gravy can be used in SOUPS
and sauces or as flavoring for
meat pies, croquettes and vege-
! tables.
That every bit of clean fat
trimmed from meat and every
spoonful of drippings and every
; bit of grease that rises when
meat is boiled can be clarified, if
need be, and is valuable in cook
cry.
That careless pairing of pota-
toes or fruits often wastes as
much as 2tt per cent of their food

and Means Committee
Food Supply

In accord with the proclama
ton of the President of the Uni
ted States of America. and the
Governor of the state of Colorado
a temporary organization has
been formed in the several towns
of Cheyenne county, Colorado,
as follows:
At Aroya, VIM. Smith
At Wild Horse, Chris Jensen

At Cheyenne Wells, J. E..
Hayes. l.. w. Wells and C. Eich-
enberger, committeeman.
At Arapahoe. w. w. Howard
and L. M. Dickson, committee
men.
These committees will carry on
the work as planned by the state
organization, which gets it's au-
thority from the Federal Govern
ment, until such time as there
can be a county organization Sc
cured which we hope can be
formed about the middle of June
At that time we will be able to
secure a state organizer to help
with the details of forming a
county organization, and there
will also be two or three speakers
from Ft Collins who will urge an
increse as well as conservation Of
food supplies. Keep this meet
rof June in mind, and let every
body of the county come and help
in getting the county properly
organized, and hear what the Fr
Collins men have to say about the
food shortage and the possible
remedy for the same.
In the meanwhile the Governor
asks that every farmer in Color
ado put in the largest crop that
he is able to handle, and if any
farmer is lacking in feed for his
horses or seed for his field, he is
taken care of, his needs to be
supplied to the end that such
farmer shall realize his highest
production.
Ii you will make your wants for
seed or feed be known to any of
/; the men. named in this notice.
your case will have immediate at
tention. If any farmer should
have a surplus of seed it should
be reported to some of these com
| mitteemen. Let US hear from
you Mr.. Farmer.

These figures indicate that
the average citizens has been
steadily loosing in the purchas-
ing power Of his wages or salary
and has been actually growing
poorer in spite of the enormous
increase in the aggregate wealth
of the country.
''The question naturally arises
Who have profited by the extra
ordinary increase in the country s
wealth."
WHERE WEALTH HAS GONE
Mr.. Pinchot answered his
question by pointing out the en-
ormous increase in the net profits
of American Industrial corporat-
ions. He submitted a list of "a
gigantic combinations which
have increased their profits by
500 per cent in the three years
betw cen 1914 and 1917.
'.The recent increase in crop
of millionaires and muti-million-
aires is equally striking" he
said.
,'The number of persons with
incomes of million year and
over doubled between 1914 and
1915. 1t has probably doubled
again this year.
I'm 1915 there were 1872, 1928
persons with incomes between

to feel the pinch of poverty"
1t is scarcely necessary to say

ates made a profound impression
on those who heard them.

about the only one they can see

Monday twenty-five pupils and
teachers of the high school look
ed like a band of Villas Mexicans
except in dress. They had driv-
en- through from Flagler. Sunday
in open cars and the sun on the

witnessed the Twentieth CEN
tury miracle the other day! A
number of rich men appeared be-
fore the Ways and Means COM
mittee of the House of Repre-
sentatives and pleaded that their
personal taxes might be raised to
the point of confiscation of ex-
cessive income. Nothing like it
had ever been seen or heard in
the historical room where tariff
and other revenue bills have been
framed for more than half a cen
tury.
It fell to my lot to arranged
the remarkable hearing. | had
read the telegram sent to Presi-
dent Wilson by E. w. Scripps the
millionaire newspaper publisher,
in which he declared that no man
should be permitted to enjoy an
income Of more Than $780, 600 a
year while our country was en-
gagged in war. I knew that
Scripp's income was about $3.50,
coo and that his proposal would
cost him $3.50, 600 a year.
1 had heard of similar suggest
ions made by Pincbot, Gerard,
Bing and other rich men of New
York, and>I confess l sometimes
wondered JUS. how much of bluff
and how much of sincerity there
was back of the proposition. /
had heard men protest against
taxes, had heard men urge the
imposition of taxes which other
men would pay, but I had never
heard men Of means demand that
the taxes aimed at their pocket
books should be radically increas-
ed, It was a brand-new idea!
LEADER KITCHIN AMAZED.
A friend who knew the leaders
in this extrao -dinary movement
assured me that the gentlemen
named were in earnest and de-
clared that, as evidence of their
good faith, they would journey
to Washington and personally ap-
pear before a committee of the
House. I sought out Congress
men Claude Kitchin, leader of
the Democratic majority. and
asked for hearing.
This sounds loo good to be
true. exclaimed Kitchin, when
/ had finished my story. Dur
ing my years on the Ways and
Means committee / have met
hundreds of men who wanted to
avoid taxation but l never found
man who courted it. Bring
along your new kind of rich men
and let's have a look at 'em! The
sight Will do my eyes good!'.
So on Wednesday. April 24th.
1917, the little delegation headed
! by Amos Pinchot and Sumner
Gerard, brother of the former
ambassador TO Germany filed on
to the Ways and Means commit
tee room and presenter their
plans in plain. straightforward
American fashion.
AVERAGE CITIZENS BUR-
DENS.
1.-The average American cit
izen'', said Mr.. Pinchot. who act
ed as spokesman. is not in a
position to hear any additional
burdens Of taxation for war pur-
poses. The increase in wages
and orIauayy incomes has not by
any means kept pace with the
rise in the cost of living.

clamor brought about the clash.
Greece was disastrously defeated,
and it was claimed that Constantine.
who was commander of the land
forces, showed the white feather at
the front.
However, he regained the national
favor in the Balkan troubles of 1912,
when at the head Of 10000 Greeks, he
captured Saloniki,. which was de-
Tended by $4,000 Turks.
So great was the enthusiasm
aroused by this feat that Greeks in
America raised several thousand dol
lars, with which was purchased a gift
sword for the prince, inscribed, ITO

Paris, June 13.-French reinforce
ments have been landed in Greece, it
was officially announced. French mill

troll of the food situation in Greece and
large bodies of French troops have
been moved into Athens.
A dispatch to the Havas agency
from Athens says:
IN. Jonnart has had long con-
ference with Premier Zaimis. He in
timated that the entente desired
greater security for the army Of the
east and the re-establishment of
unity in the Greek kingdom. He ap-
pealed to the patriotism Of M. Zaimis
to see that these objects were OBJ
tanned peacefully.
IN. Jonnart announced that mill
tary forces had been placed at his
disposition to establish control of the
Isthmus Of Corinth and to maintain
order in Athens. These forces were
landed Monday without incident"
Jonnart's Failure Hnted.

patches from Reuters correspondent
at Athens received in London report
visit by Senator Jonnart Of France
to Saloniki and indicate he was expect

England and Russia as high commits
sioner of the powers protecting
Greece, and the purpose of his trip
to Athens, as stated in the dispatches,
was to make final diplomatic efforts to
establish an understanding with royal
list Greece.
The messages seem to show that
Greece is now passing through a grave
crisis, and the possible failure of Sena-
tor Jonnart's mission is limited at.
A Paris dispatch received on Mon
day reported the arrival Of Senator
Jonnart in Athens with plenary au-
thority from the protecting powers of
Greece to deal with the situation.
