First step in work of upbuilding

Commencing today Oh the cam

activities, Mrs. S. r. NJ. Kennedy
said:
"The big necessity Of tAs present is
to finance the Red Cross so literally
as to give it the chance to step into
the gap and do a grand work 81 up
building and inspiring our allies while
our soldiers are being modified and
trained.
"And doing this we are not merely
rendering moral announcement, but
actual physical help to the fighting
armies of France. We are taking
from the shoulders Of an overburden-
ed nation the task of helping these
unfortunate5. Thus we are &ncreas-
ing the man power of France at the
very time when this counts most. We
plan to take these helpless thousands

and set them up in life so they can
help themselves.

concern on the part of the council
that the best talent is available and
most of it volunteer, so that in what
ever direction it may be necessary to
move, the work may be carried on in
diligently, efficiently and econO-
mically.
The desire of the War Council is
for immediate action to be as ctfici-
emily and economically executed as
possible. By reason of the cO-opera-
tive spirit of the public it is believed
that the overhead charges in the ad-
ministration of this work will be COM
paratively low. Only a small per
centage of each dollar contributed
will be required to carry the relief to
its destination.
Next we shall continue organizing
base hospitals with personnel and
full equipment in order that they may
be turned over to the army upon a
days notice for transport to France.
AT the same time we will proceed to
organize such units to be stationed
at the mobilization camps of our
soldiers and our sailors in this cOun-
try as may be desired by the Surgeon
Generals of the army and navy. Also
we shall proceed with the purchasing,

Cleanly Food Is Essential to F amily Health
By DR.. Samuel C. Dixon U. S Commissioner Of Health

Wild animals eat their food raw either while
fresh or after it has become tender with age This
latter habit is of the weasePs. They kill quite lib
orally of their prey when the opportunity offers and
then allow it almost to decay before they feed upon
it. Primitive man hunted and devoured his food much
like the lower animals.
Later in the history of he learned to make
fire and cook his food and it is quite evident from
what we find in the Indian mounds that it became the
CUSTOM for instance of the American Indians to have
great clam bakes on the Atlantic coast Sometimes
in these mounds we find bones of deer, showing that

BY ellison

Washington, D. c., Sept. 11.-Crop
reports are the most encouraging fea-
ture in the business situation. The
small grainst are now harvested and
h corn crop is practically assured.
The latter is to make a crop larger,
than the record By 100000. bushels
n larger than last years record by
100000 bushels. This will help the
feed situation and eventually max
for cheaper meat.
Wheat is turning out better than
expected. as it comes from the
threshing machines. Oats is a tre-
mendous crop, fine Of quality; and
both barley and rye are excellent.
According to Agricultural depart
ment reports, potatoes, beans, garden
products and fruits will be .
abundant than ever in the history Of
the country. The pack OF all kinds of
canned and dried fruits will be much
larger than usual.
The new corn crop is selling at APP
p~roxinnately, $1.08 9 bushel for De-
has sold as low as SO cents per bushel
and as high as $1.S0 per bushel.
The meat situation is less
aging. A conference was called by
Secretary Houston in washington this
week to consider ways and means for
averting a meat famine. The high
price of all meats is drawing to the
houses young animals and
females which should be kept for fat
|tening or breeding.
In the present scarcity Of meat,
lamb should be permitted to grow inI
to sheep and ewes should be kept for
breeding purposes.
The egg supply is threatened in
like manner by the high prices offered
for dead chickens. This brings the
|pullets to the table when they should
be permitted to lay eggs. It Is GER
tain that all meats will be higher for
some time. The price Of feed has al
SO resulted in the premature killing Of
both poultry and meat animals. \
Lamb is retailing at 50 cents a
pound for the choice cuts. as Is also
calves liver.
Hogs have, sold up to $40 per hun
dredweight at the Chicago yards. but
the price has recently gone down to
1918. Shipments Of hogs have fallen
|of enormously. Where the Chicago
packers normally received 10000 a
day. they. are now receiving. between
1000 end 1000. It is a are day
when 5000 hogs are brought In.

other hand, the tonnage from all d.
rections are increased tremendously.
Where three ships YER needed a year
ago, four are needed now. France is
very short OF coal, one of the vital
necessaries for winter. Italy is short
of coal, and the shortage Is SO serious
that it is causing the Italian govern
ment the utmost concern. For all
these shortages there is only one
remedy, namely, tonnage.
But still more important demand
for tonnage m from America,
whence the %entente's great reserve- of
men must come this winter. The ne-
cessity for tonnage to transport the
American army and keep them sup
piled is perhaps the most important
feature Of the shipping situation.

rived at the conclusion that the win

England and America this winter, an
