POTATO CROP In VERMONT

The committee on food production
and conservation Of the Vermont com
mittee of public safety has carefully
taken under consideration the prob
lem of conserving the crops OF the
state. Several meet gs have been
held in consultation with those most
intimately informed as TO Vermont
conditions. The last meeting, which
was held in Montpelier August 9th
at the call of His Excellency, the Gov
erno-, end James Hartness, chairman
Of the public safety committee and
Federal food commissioner for Yer
mont. TO which was also Invited Com
missioner Brigham, Director Bradlee
and the county agents, resulted in the
following conclusions which the com
mittee subm.s to the citizI-s Of the
Sta;e.
/. Most Vermont crops can be ef-
fectively stored and marketed through
the usual channels.
2. BY the very general and highly
commendable activity on the part OF
the women of the State in canning and
preserving, garden products are being
well cared for.

The perishable crops, particular

ly potatoes, are giving the creates
concern. According to government
estimates, Vermont will produce fou
million bushels Of potatoes this year
an amount considerably in excess Of
returns received by the committee
Several sections OF the State repor'
blight, one county reporting fewer po
tatoes than in 1916 as n result. With
the needs Of the people and the ben
eft Of the producer in mind, this fact
urges great caution against wastage
especially where there may seem to be
a surplus. The reports from Aroo-
stock County, Maine, indicate n small
err crop than anticipated.
4. To guard against this loss, the
producer is urged to use every precau-
tion in the matter Of storage. Avail
able storage should be utilized to the
fullest extent. Where this is not suf-
ficient the old time potato pit should
be constructed.
s. The farmers are advised not TO
create a glutted or panicky market by
hasty disposal of their potatoes. One
dollar per bushel is fair price for
both producer and the consumer and
it is the opinion Of the committee that
this price can be maintained by such
precaution as Is here advised.
6. Consumers are urged to lay in
a sufficient supply Of potatoes for the
entire season. Every cellar should
have bins prepared with care to avoid
decay and attack Of vermin. Potatoes
will keep in best condition in stor-
age with temperature ranging from
35 to 40 degrees Of fahrenheit
7. Consumers are urged to make a
larger use Of potatoes than at any
previous time. There are many ways
in which potatoes may be served that
are both palatable and nutritious. The
committee will send out pamphlet of
recipes and suggestions at later per-
iod. The American people have used
about four bushels per capita. This
ought to be increased in the future to
six bushels. Wherever possible, each
family should lay in a supply on that
basis.
8. With respect to marketing po-
tatoes for shipment out Of the State,
producers are advised that the County
Agents receive daily quotations con-
cerning prices Of potatoes and that the
commissioner Of agriculture will fur
nish daily quotations through the
press of the State. The commissioner
has also investigated transportation
facilities and assures the farmers that
there is now no prospect of difficulty
in procuring cars for shipment provid-
ed promptness in loading is practised.
9. The State department of agri-
culture, through its marketing agent,
is in position to recommend reput-
able wholesale dealers and commits
sion merchants to whom and through
whom potatoes may be sold. Farmers
or associations of farmers who have
potatoes to ship in carloads should
write to the Commissioner of Agricul-
ture, st. Albans, VT, for list of deal
ers.
10. The Extension Service under
the direction of Mr.. Bradlee and
through the county agents will render
every possible service in matters of
storage and marketing. Avail your
self of this agency.
IL. Don't let anything waste.

ness.
has been so fortunate as TO secure the
services Of Editor j. T. Gushing Of the
st. Adams Messenger in the matter Of
promoting food conservation among
the people in the state Of Vermont
Mr.. Gushing has been granted an in
definite leave Of absence from the
Messenger and will go TO Spring
field this week TO make his headquar-
ters there in order that he may be
in constant communication with Mr..
Hartness.
His work will be TO keep the public
accurately and fully informed in re-
gard to the plans Of Federal Food Ad-
ministrator Hoover and to see that
information especially interesting to
the people of the state reaches the
press promptly. II is very essential
that the administration in handling
the food situation should have the
hearty and intelligent cooperation Of
the housewives, upon whom the sue
cess Of the conservation efforts real
ly depend. Those who have given
thought to the problem believe that It
is useless to talk TO the wholesaler,
the retailer or "the man Of the house,"
when the food control is actually In
the hands Of the lady who does the
buying and feeds the family. To en-
list her is to secure most valuable
ally to the cause and to awaken her to
a realization OF her part in the cam
paign this matter Of food control must
be presented in forcibly convincing
manner.
Editor Cushing is eminently fitted TO
undertake the task for which he has
be en- selected; for he wields the pen OF
ready writer and has thorough
knowledge of the kind and quantity
Of reading matter which the newspa-
pers can use TO the best advantage.
He served with the National Guard
on the Mexican border year ago and
his editorials on the military affairs OF
the state and the nation have been
marked by keen insight and compre-
hensive grasp of the whole subject.
1t is the plan Of the food admin
istration TO have each state director
keep in close communication with the
various woman's organizations and for
that purpose there have been appoint
ed two women directors, who will
work under the supervision of the
state food administrator. Mrs. John
f. Weeks of Middlebury will have
charge of what lies outside Of home
economies, for which special
appointee has been named by Mr..
Hoover and is Miss Bertha N. Terrill.

economics in the University of Yer

WIN THE WAR BY GIVING
YOUR OWN DAILY SERVICE

Save the Wheat--One .wheatles
meal a day. Use corn, oatmeal, ry
or barley bread and non-wheat break
fast foods. Order bread twenty-fou
hours in advance so your baker vii
not bake beyond his needs. Cut tn
loaf on the table and only as required
Use stale bread for cooking, toast, etc
Eat less cake and pastry.
Our wheat harvest is far below
normal II each person weekly save
one pound of wheat -four that mean
$50, 0,000,0 more bushels Of wheat fol
the allies to mix in their bread. Thi'
will help them to save DEMOCRACY
Save the Meat.--Beef, mutton cl
pork not more than once daily. Us'
freely vegetables and fish. At thu
meat meal serve smaller portions, ant
stews instead Of steaks. Make made
dishes Of all left-overs. Dc ,ris ane
there will be meat enough for ever,
one at reasonable price.
We are today killing the dairy cows
and female calves as the result OF
high price. Therefore, eat less anc
eat no young meat. II we save ar
ounce Of meat each day per person
we will have additional supply equa
to 100000 cattle.
Save the Milk.--The children must
have milk. Use every drop. Use but.
termilk and sour milk for cooking and
making cottage cheese. Use less
cream.
Save the Fats.--We are the worlds
greatest fat wasters. Fat is food
Butter is essential for the growth and
health Of children. Use butter on the
table as usual but not in cooking
Other fats are as good. Reduce use
of fried foods. Save daily one-third
ounce animal fats. Soap contains fats
Do not waste it. Make your own
washing soap at home out of the saved
fats.
Use one-third ounce less per day OF
animal fat and 375,0O0 tons will be
saved yearly.
Save the Sugar.-Sugar is scarcer
We use today three times as much per
person as our allies. So there may
be enough for all at reasonable price
use less candy and sweet drinks. do
not stint sugar in putting up fruit and
Jams. They will save butter.
If everyone in America saves one
ounce of sugar daily, it means 1,lOO,-
900 tons for the year.
Save the Fuel.-Coal comes from a
distance and our railways are over
burdened hauling war material Help
relieve them by burning fewer flres
Use wood when you can get it.
Use the Perishable FOods.-Fruits
and vegetables we have in abundance
As a nation we eat too little green
stuffs. Double their use and improve
your health. Store potatoes and other
roots properly and they will keep. Be
gin now to can or dry all surplus
garden products.
Use Local Supplies. - Patronize
your local producer. Distance means
money. Buy perishable food from the
neighborhood nearest you and thus
save transportation.
General Rules
Buy less, serve smaller portions. &.
Preach the Gospel of the Clean
Plate"
Don't eat fourth meal.
Don't limit the plain food of grow
ing children.
Watch out for the wastes in the
community.
Full garbage pals in America mean
empty dinner pals in Amarica and
Europe.
If the more fortunate of our people
will avoid waste and eat no more than
they need, the high cost of living prob
lem of the less fortunate will be solv-
ed.

Carroll Dana Winslow, the author
of with the French Flying Corps"
tScribner's which is now in its
third edition has left the French
service in which he won great dis
tinction as an officer to become a
captain in the American Aeroplane
Service. His book, contains much
more than the interest of a graphic
account of romantic adventures: ne
explains the system of training for
air service used so successfully in
France in such n way as to give
pretty complete understanding of
what an airman must learn and do.
New and interesting light on one
of the most romantic and beloved
heroes of the whole of American
history will be thrown by a volume
on Paul Jones and His Exploits in
English Seas, 1878 to 1880" by Don
c. Seitz which f. p. Dutton & Co.
will publish in the autumn. 1t con-
tains contemporary accounts collect
ed from newspapers recording his
audacious visits to town along the
English coast and includes also a
complete Paul Jones photography.
Mrs. Nelson O'Shaughnessy, the
well-known author of Diplomatic
Days in Mexico is spending tho

adel and had the sensation of being
