Food Pledge Campaign
Oct. e to Nov. 4.

What is the Hoover Food Pledge
card? 1t is voluntary agreement to
cooperate with the Food administration
to conserve food. Signers pledge them
selves to do all they can to save food
and to eat food that will permit of the
largest possible quantities to be sent to
the army and TO the warning nations of
our Allies. 1t is a chance to get on the
side of the government and help make
the war as short as possible. Do you
want your boy back? Then help bit
by signing and observing the sugges-
tions of the food Administration.
Who should sign? Every family in
Forest county should sign or go to
Germany. Every family should be a
member of the food saving army. Do
this whether you are rich or poor. Even
if you can afford everything try to
save. We want every family in Forest
county to sign up.
What if do not sigr? All those who
refuse to sign will be reported to the
food administration. Each worker will
be asked TO make list of every family
who does not sign. Those who sign will
receive card for their window indicat-
ing that they are members of the Food
Administration Forces. All may know
the members by the shield of Stars and
Stripes with border decoration of
wheat heads on card in the front
window
Where can get cards and informa-
tion if no one calls? At the office of
Secretary County Council of Defense,
Crandon, Wis. Cards should then be
signed and returned.
Will be asked to give up part of my
stored food? No absolutely not. Some
interests against the Government have
indicated that families might have to
divide up or give food to the govern
ment. This is not true, and such acts
are fraud. Any representative of the
food Administration will work through
local authorities.
The Forest County Representative
of the Food Administration are, HI. A.

PRESIDENT WILSON THE MOST
HATED MAN IN GERMANY.

THE HAGUE, June /. Professor Her
ton Delmer, who was attached TO tne
Berlin University as professor OF Engilsh
many years before the outbreak Oh the
war. has Just arrived here from Germany
with his family. The professor spent the
first months of the war In the lnterment
camp at Ruhleben, but was subsequently
released and permitted to live IN Berlin
with his family, where they endured
many hardships and privatlons, resulting
in broken health ),
sThe spirit of the German people, =
said Professor Delmer today to the repre-
sentative of the New York Times, rs
now kept up by hopes of results from the
ruthless submarine warfare and the VIDE
spread belief that Great Britain IS ABOUT
to be forced to surrender, but otherwise
the people realize that Germany IS at the
end of her tether
"When America first entered the war
the cue was that America was decaaenI
dollar nation, not to be feared LOT wal,
and that no further etfectual help couid
be given to the Allies by her, as she h Ia
already helped all she could, 1lnancially
and materially. The more serious MIND
ed, however, regarded this as MISTAKE
and many considered that the govern
ment had played the fool where America
was concerned Men like Maxlmliian
Harden outspokenly declare the pollcy
which led to the break with the United
States to have been exceedingly short
sighted. The nation feels that 1t mas
been deceived in President Wilson, as IL
took him for a man who could be won by
soft sawder. He is now the most mated
man in GERMANY"

NO OFFENSE MEANT.

We learn from a recent speech by
Chancellor Won Bethmann-Hollweg in
the Reichstag that Germany never had
the slightest intention of attacking the
United States, and does not have such
intention now"
When Germany sank the Lusitania,
slaughtering more than 100 American
citizens, she had no intention of attack
ing u.s. When she killed several scores
of other American citizens at various
times and places in the past two years,
she didn't mean any offense 1t was Just
one of her little Prussian ways. Nations,
like individuals, have their foibles.
When she inspired and financed a
great, hostile campaign in this country
for the perversion of public opinion, the
blowing up of factories, warehouses and
ships, the breaking of our laws and de-
fiance of our neutrality, she didn't mean
any harm. When she tried to persuade
Mexico and Japan to join her in making
war against us, that was only another
little Prussian whimsicality. When she
ordered our commerce off the sea, and
proceeded to blow up all ships ignoring
the command, that was an act of disin-
terested friendship.
The chancellor adds that Germany
never desired war against the United
States, and does not desire it today" Oh
course not! Germany never desired wal
against Belgium or France. They were
simply so stupid as to imagine they hae
been attacked, and so foolish as to fign1
back. Why can't we be sensible abou1
it?-Bangor Daily News.

MACBIASPORT PACKING CO. SOLD.
Booth Fisheries Company Puys Large
Maine Sardine Plant

MACHIASPORT, Me, June 4. In the
sale to the Booth Fisheries Company of
the Machiasport Packing Company prop
erty, trade rights and good will in bust
ness, one Of the largest real estate trans
fers and most important business trans
actions in Washington County has been
closed. The business of the Machiasport
Company has been the canning of sar-
dimes, smoking of fish, maintaining of
fish weirs and the general fish curing
business, all branches of which have been
carried on on an extensive scale. The
business was established more than forty
years ago by Henry Dodge, who was one
of the pioneers in the American sardine
business.
The new company that has taken over
this concern is a branch of the Booth
Fisheries Company of Chicago, an SILL
600, 900 corporation, with branches in all
the principal cities and is one of the
largest fish concerns in the world and is
in position to develop the great and valu-
able sea and shore fisheries of Maine.
Since the new concern has taken posses
sion, many changes have been commenc-
ed in the matter of improvements on
buildings, and in charging the different
plants.

18th, when dinner will be served Mr..
and Mrs. Billings, the caterers who were
with the club last season, will arrive Sat-
urday next, having spent the winter in
New York. Mr.. Jenkins, the golf in
structor and superintendent of the new
course, is looking after the links. With
good weather the course will be in shape
Tor the opening of the club, but the in
tolerable weather of the entire spring has
been anything but conducive to building
links. The first tee, 12x12, is complete
and work this week will be commenced
on the golf house, to be used exclusively
by members of the golf club. This will
be about 80 feet long and will contain a
general room with lockers Shower
baths will be installed in the house and
there will also be three or four sleeping
rooms for the help, the quarters at the
club house being very inadequate for the
additional help which will be necessary
this season. E. E. Babcock of Belfast is
the builder. While it is necessary to
raise the club dues this season, owing to
the high cost of everything, it is only
$3.50 more than last year, and this is
very much less than any other country
club in the vicinity. A slight difference
will be made in the price of meals, but it
is so small that it will have but little eff
feet, if any. The dining room will be
run on much more elaborate scale this
season. There will be afternoon tea and
number of other innovations over last
year. A splendid program has been ar
ranged for the season, with Sunday af-
ternoon concerts, so popular last year,
a course of hops and a bridge tournament.
The formal opening will take place July
4th, when concert will be given by the
Belfast band, with ball in the evening,
when Mckeen of Belfast will furnish
music. 1t is expected that large num-
Der will avail themselves of the privi-
leges of the golf course for which a fee
OF $40 in addition to the membership is
charged, this to include man and his
wife. An additional fee will be asked
for members of a family. The trees and
underground on the west side of the
clubhouse are to be cleared out so that a
fine view of the links can be obtained
from the porches. Rustic seats will also
be placed on the slope overlooking the
course.

GREAT VALUE OF TIN.

1t is indispensable, and There is no Substi-
tute For it.
Nickel and tin are the only important
metals that have not been found in pay
ing quantities among our mineral re-
sources, although the fact that we are
the largest consumers of tin plate in the
world has stimulated the search. Tin ore
in small quantities has been found in sew
eral places in the United States, but most
of what we use comes from Cornwall, in
England; Banka, in the East Indies, and
Malacca, in southern Asia.
Tin is a metal that has played an i'm
portant part in the history of the world
Combined with copper to make bronze, it
was doubtless the first metal that man
converted to his use. Weapons, tools and
utensils made of bronze were used during
a long period before iron and steel came
into use The United States now uses in
the manufacture of tin cans as much tin
plate as all other countries together use
for all purposes.
There is no substitute for tin. Price
has little effect on consumption, which is
not true of other metals If tin costs Is
cents a pound we should perhaps put a
thicker coating on our plates and make
better solder and babbitt metal, but if it
were dollar pound we should still have
to use it for nearly every one of the pur-
poses for which it is now employed
The lack of tin is one of the few things
that keep the United States from being
self sufficient. If we were suddenly de-
prived of our supply of tin and solder we
should soon have serious sanitary troubles.
