STORE WINTER SUPPLIES.
Fruits and Vegetables Required Dur
ing the Nongrowing Season for
the Family.

A family OF five, including two
adults and three children under ~
years of age, under ordinary living
conditions, should have stored for
each month of the winter season the
following food supplies: / bushel of
Irish potatoes; ! bushel of other root
vegetables such as carrots, turnips,
and p~arsnips; % quarts of other vege-
tables and 20 quarts of canned fruits
and preserves These figures are
based on estimates by the United
States Department of, Agriculture,
which adds that most of this should
come from the perishable products of
the many home gardens this year.
With these figures as a basis, it is
thought that almost any family may
calculate its requirements, taking in
to consideration the length of the win
ter season in any given locality. Thus,
in the South, where food crops may be
grown in the fall, the winter allow
ance may be less than for the far
North, where n must count on sup
plies for several months longer.
There is still time, says the depart
ment, for a final drive in canning, pre-
serving and drying. In using dried
vegetables, it may be assumed that a
given quantity of dried vegetables
is equal to four times its bulk of
canned vegetables; that is, one-fourth
of a quart of dry string beans when
soaked over night is approximately
equal to n quart canned.

Wants Better Service

A. l.. Stoner of Inavale, presi-
dent of the Webster County Farmers
Union, filed a protest with the railway
concerning the unsanitary
condition of the coaches on the Burl-
ington operating in this locality.
Following is his letter in part:
First on entering the coach at Red
Cloud, Neb., September 6, 1917, We
found it in a very dirty, filthy and an
altogether unfit condition to expect
men to ride in to accompany their
stock to market. To every appear
ance this coach had not been cleaned,
busted or otherwise attended to for
the comfort and convenience Of, the
cattle men for "many moons" The
floor was Uttered from one end to the
other with every conceivable thing
that you would ever expect to find in
a railway coach. In mid afternoon
for two hours or more we were with
out water and in absolute darkness
from Table Rock to Falls City.
These last two conditions alone we
consider very negligent and discour-
teous to a part of the men who make
this road pay dividends. Moreover,
the u~nsanitary condition of this coach
was a menace to the health, comfort
and convenience of the shippers and
we respectfully ask that these con
ditions be investigated and remedied
at the earliest opportunity"

PUTTING NEBRASKA AHEAD.
A Record for war Efficiency" in
Transportation as Well as in
Productivity.

Nebraska is easily first in a great
many things. 1t was first to agitate
the income tax, first to agitate direct
election of senator's, first to agitate
direct election of president. 1t
is the first in per capita production of
agriculture and live stock. The
publicity arising from all these things
is valuable. Now is Nebraska's
opportunity to secur even greater
publicity by taking the front rank in
the matter of wal efficiency-putting
the punch into the service that means
the speedy winning Of the a
There is q shortage Of freight
equipmeht-cars and locomotives.
No time now to discuss the why's of
this fact. The government is taking
over the locomotive works, and car
shops are too busy on wal stuff to
manufacture freight cars. The So
luton of the transportation problem
lies in speeding up" shipments, MAX
ing three cars do the work that four
or five performed last year.-making
two locomotives do the work that re-
quired three last year or the year be-
fore. Let Nebraska take the lead in
this and the "big guns" of the bust
ness world will talk a lot about the
Nebraska way"
How? Anticipate your needs and
order in large lots, loading cars to
maximum weight capacity. Notify
the railroads when you are going to
load, and load promptly. Notify the
consignee, and then expect him to un-
load and release the car with prompt
ness. systematic your shipments,
and remember that other people are
crying for the cars you are holding
up. One year ago the freight car
shortage "a 100000 cars. The
railroads have speeded up to their
limit, and the shortage is now less
than 10000 cars. They used to make
less than 26 miles per car per day;
now they are making twenty-five per
cent more. They can double it if
you'll assist in the good work. One
great railroad is sending out an en-
pert to "put the war punch" in its
employees; others will follow. When
Nebraska shippers and the Nebraska
public cooperate we'll get Nebraska
grain and live stock to the market
p. d. g., and other states will envy us
and emulate us. They'll talk about
Nebraska's way of doing things
that's the kind of advertising Ne
