THE war against Germany
Will never be won by planting
back lot gardens, renOvating
wood sheds, constructing
bird houses or making paper
flowers" i'm the opinion Of
Joe Smith Of LOngbranch,
president of the Direct Trad
ers' league, who this after
noon addressed the Monday
Cvic's club Mt the WOman's
Club house, on "War Emer-
genCy Food Conservation"
I'VE are now up against the
real thing" said Mr.. Smith, and
II is the duty Of every American
man and woman to get busy at
some useful and productive task
and help to make our government
more efficient.
THE true rule Of war emer-
gency service for the individual
Is to do that useful task you know
the best how to do and do 1t bet
ter than you ever did before. II
this is the production Of food pro-
duce food. If 1t is making cloth
ing, or building ships or operat-
ing trains or washing dishes or
hauling poles then give your time
to that.
Just now the country appears
to have gone crazy over the cam
paign for the increased planting
of food crops. This craze has
distracted hundreds of people
from other useful occupations
they have already mastered and
turned them out with shovel and
hoe upon the waste places of our
cities to dissipate and squander
both their money and their en-
ergies.
IAN increased production of
food of all kinds is of the high
est importance. But this does
not mean that we should drive
into the incompetent effort to
raise turnips men and women who
are vastly more useful at some
other employment. Cultivating
vacant lots is pleasant and
healthful employment at odd
hours, even in times of peace,
and the children especially should
be encouraged In every way to
give It measure Of their atten-
tion. But the amateur gardener
should be warned that not more
than half of the city gardens
planted by persons who have new
or had any experience in cult
waiting the soil will produce crops
Of sufficient value to pay for the
seeds, tools and fertilizers expend-
ed on them.
"And i'm the face of this
idfotic craze to enlist inexper-
fenced persons IN the lot-gar-
dening crusade, little or no
attention is being devoted by
the public to efforts to bring
into the market for consumps.

to be gained by the establishment

increase the available supply Of

According to Quarantine
Officer Joe German of the
city health department, a
small epidemic of German
measles, disease heretofore
little known here, has devel-
Oped I'm Tacoma. He says one
woman whose child is suf-

greatly worried because the
ailment has a German name.
German measles is similar
to the American disease, but
more mild. The rash con-
tinues only for "A to 80 hours
and the coughing and sneez-
ings, is less pronounced.
