Many Seek To Solve Their Eco
nOmic Problems.

The increasingly critical condition
of national politics and the growing
appreciation of the serious war and
economic problems facing the nation
have not diverted public attention
from the necessity for domestic
economy.
On tho contrary, the need for saw
ing, and for conserving food and 9TH
er essentials is growing constantly in
the national consciousness The state
OF the public mind is reflected in the
inquiries that pour into the State
journal Information Bureau at Wash
lnSton, ID. c. In the week from July
to July 10, ESQ inquiries were re-
ceived and answered by Frederic J..
Haskin, director of the bureau. OF
these 144 were requests for the book
let on Canning furnished to appli-
cants; twenty-three Bread Books
were sent out, with 176 leaflets on

formation concerning postal regula-
tons in wartime.
Requests for unusual and out of

One individual wants to know if
there is a resort where the govern

ment. The government hasn't such
place but other people have, and the
bureau tells who and where they are.
Another wants to know the location
of the colored officers training camp.
Another wants to know all there is
to know-how to furnish your home;
how to pack a lunch basket; how to
build a bird house; how to have
smooth lawn, what books should be
included in a short list of the greatest
works of fiction: what is the best way
to prepare whitewash, etc
