or barley bread and non~wheat break
fast foods. Order bread twenty-four
hours in advance so your baker will
not bake beyond his needs. Cut the
loaf on the table and only as required.

SAVE THE MEAT-Reef, mutton or
pork not more than oLce day. Use
freely vegetables and fish. At the
meat meal serve smaller portions, and
stews instead of steaks. Make made
dishes of all left-overs. Do this and
there will be meat enough for everyone
at a reasonable price.
We are today killing the dairy COWS
and female calves as the result or

eat no young meat If we save an
ounce of reat each day per person, we
will have additional SUPPLY equal t.

SAVE THE MILK-The children
must have milk. Use every drop.
Use buttermilk and sour milk FOR
cooking and making cottage cheese.
Use less cream.

Calls On Business Men
To Show Their Loyalty
President Tells of Nations Demands M.st Determine
on Fair Prices Wilson'S Stirring Summons to
Business Interests, Explains Purpose of Mo0e.

Washington, July 11.-President
Wilson appealed to the countrys
business interests tonight to put aside
every selfish consideration and to give
eSbsir aid to the nation as freely as
t hose who go out to offer their lives
ON the battlefield.
In statement addressed to the
coal operators and manufacturers he
gave assurances that just prices Will
be paid by the government and the
public during the war, but warned
that NO attempt to extort unusual
profits will be tolerated.
sYour patriotism" said the presl-
dents appeal, "is of the same self
denying stuff as the patriotism of the
men dead and MANNED on the fields
of France. or it is no patriotism at
all. Let us never speak, then, OF
profits and patriotism in the same
sentence.
81 shall expect every man who IS
not a Stacker to be at my side through
out this great enterprise. In it no
man can win honor who thinks o.
himself"
One Price for ALI.
The president declared there must
be but one price for the government
and for the public. He expressed con
fdence that business generally VIII
be found loyal to the last degree, and
that the problem of war time prices,
which he declared will "mean victory
or defeat" will be solved rightly
through patriotic cooperation.
In unmeasured terms, however, Nj.
Wilson condemned the ship o"Iers~ OF
the country for maintaining a schedule
of ocean freight rates which mas
placed almost insuperable obstacles
in the path of the government.
"The fact is,'' he asserted; that
those who have fixed war freight rates

NEW YORK PAPER

 SUBMARINE FAILS

NEW YORK, Dec 26.-The New fork Times says editorially: The submarine is failing, the offensive
 gainst Italy is failing. It will be ong before the submarine is under control, but Italy is already saved. General Maurices declaration on
 hat point may be accepted. He peaks for the British general staff, not merely expressing his own opin- on when he says: 'sit is now time Q say definitely that the crisis in italy is passed The submarine vas advertised as Germany's Hast .hrow," but later she saw an un- expected opening in Italy and found he had a card to play there. Now that they are both definitely seen
 be failures, what will Germany do lext? The truth is that her real
