SAVE THE SUGAR AND
HELP OUR ALLIES

Our government is asking us to help
win the war py practicing a little
greater economy in our eating. The
creates immediate demand for saving
is with sugar. We are in receipt of a
communication from the Department
of Agriculture which needs no com
ment but which we, as patriotic Amer
leans, must individually act upon if
we care to do our bit and give our al
lies a square deal.
The threatened sugar famine makes
it imperative that individuals and fam
lilies begin to coserve sugar at once.
The burden Of the task of reducing
the amount Of sugar used in the prep
aration of food will fall largely on the
housewife and on those who prepare
and serve foods in public places, but
there must also be the cooperation
Of individuals if the serious conse-
quences of a prolonged shortage is
averted. The services of the home
demonstration agent will be needed to
advise and guide housekeepers in their
efforts to serve meals, to satisfy
their families, and at the same time
reduce the amount of sugar ordinari-
ly used. The first and possibly the
greatest difficulty confronting the
American nation in the outset of the
campaign to save sugar will be the
prejudice of habit. Americans have
allowed their fondness for sugar to
increase to the point where it has
passed extravaganza and become &C
tual waste.
Our present sugar supply is suffi-
cient for our own consumption only
until the first of January. The
United States food administration
states that Americans have been US
ing at the rate of ninety pounds per
capita per year or one and three
fourths pounds a week. The French
have been for some time on a ration
Of less than one ounce a day-about
two level tablespOOnsful-Or half a
pound a week and unless the Ameri-
can nation can send them 100, 900 tons
during the next two months their ra-
ton will be reduced to nothing. Sugar
in an amount greater than one ounce
per day the minimum amount needed
for the French and the other allied
nations a be supplied without hard
ship to anyone if the American peo-
pie will reduce by one-third their pur-
chases and consumption of sugar in
any form until after the first of Jan
uary when the new West Indian crop
will be available to all After that
the situation probably will be less
tense. 1t would seem as If merely
placing these facts before the people
Of America would be sufficient to call
forth a hearty response.
The following questions may well
be given consideration by everyone
(a) How much sugar is served on
your table in a week?
American Falls press. [volume] (American Falls, Idaho) 1907-1937, 1917-11-13

90 What is the average amount
which each person uses in tea and
coffee?
(c) Does your family use sugar
on cereals?
cd Do you add sugar to the baby's
cereal and cup of milk?
(e) What kind of dessert do you
serve most frequently?
81 viii each member of the fami-
ly who uses more than six tablespoons
full of sugar a day-including the
amount used in cakes, buildings, pre-
served fruits, ETC., agree to reduce the
amount to four tablespOonsful?
(g) Will you for n month sub
stitute dishes which contain little SUI
gar in place of cakes, buildings, etc?
For instance, use molasses and syrups
in sweetening; use salads freely, and
use the canned fruits which you put
up last summer in place of such
dishes as cakes and buildings.
Oh Will you agree to use fresh
fruits, r~aisins, dates, figs, nuts, pop
corn and similar things for your holt
day gatherings and cut down on an
dies and dishes which call for sugar?
ID If there are five persons in
your family will you agree to limit the
sugar used in all cooking and served
on our table in any form including
candy. to one pound 1.-TWO cups) a day
for the remainder of the year? This
allowance will give approximately
three ounces a day per person. For
each member of the family over five
add six tablespoonful additional, for
less than five reduce the amount six
tablespoonful for each person.
Cd Will you keep a record of the
amount of sugar saved in this way?
It is hard for US, who have not
known what it is to be hungry for any
particular food, to realize what it
means to the people of France and
England to be without sugar till the
tropical crop comes on. If each of
us do our bit by eating less sugar for
the next two months there will be no
further trouble from that source

Mrs. A. o. Andersen, residing five
miles south of Arbon postoffice, from
a flock of 40 laying hens of mixed
stock during the past summer, sold an
average of 10 dozens of eggs each
week, besides supplying the home, the
income from the flock more than pay
ing for all the groceries needed in the
household More than 100 young stock
are growing up to add their industry
to the flock the coming year. The
garden on this ranch yielded particu-
larly well this year in all kinds of veg
etables. From a half acre of potatoes
more than a ton were dug and stored
away or disposed of, and from another
patch of the garden seven sacks of
carrots were gathered. This garden
q not irrigated, but the ground was
thoroughly prepared and the plants
received plenty of cultivation.

While walking through a field some
days ago, a few miles west of Pauline,
a bunch of sacks of wheat piled up
in neat tiers was counted and the total
was found to be 312 we'll filled sacks
averaging around 100 pounds each.
Don't know who the owner is, as it
was getting too late that day to ascer-
tain that fact, but the Pilgrim stands
ready to wager 312 cents against 80
corncob pipes that the owner of that
pile of wheat is satisfied with the
yield of that field.

Somebody in this valley is losing
chickens; no doubt about that. Near
ly every day bones and feathers of
barnyard fowls are seen in stubble
or plowed fields. often a mile or nor
from the nearest ranch home. Coy
otes, of course, are the guilty thieves.
American Falls press. [volume] (American Falls, Idaho) 1907-1937, 1917-11-13

Hiking through a stubble field as a
short cut a few days ago it was OBJ
served that for a quarter mile the
mustard plants had lodged so densely
against a three-wire fence that the
weight of the stuff had loosened the
staples from the posts and the wires
we're in places a full six feet from the
posts. When the atmosphere in Ar
bon valley gets in motion it has four
directions to come from; coming from
the south it quite often ambles along
in the form of a gentle breeze, and
now and then it comes from the north
as a caressing zephyr. But when it
comes from the west it usually comes
down from the mountains as a furious
blast and sweeps over the valley in a
gale. 1t rarely from the east,
so the east winds are not entitled to
classification. This little tale of the
winds has a moral: When wires are
fastened to posts on fences running
north and south the staples should be
driven on the sunset side of the posts /;
the wires will hold back the accumu-
blated mass of tumbleweed, and by
and-by someone may drop a lighted
snipe into the stuff and thus keep it
from blowing clear across the valley.

Wheat straw is an article of COM
merce now, and no farmer thinks of
destroying it by fire as was frequent
ly done not so many years ago. The
experience of last winter has not been
forgotten and more than one rancher
is paying cash for a stack of straw
this fall.
American Falls press. [volume] (American Falls, Idaho) 1907-1937, 1917-11-13

The three trucks which have been
used in hauling from the platform in
Pauline have been out of commission
for some time owing to the condition
of the roads leading to Michaud. 1t
looks as if teams would yet have to be
engaged to get the wheat to the rail
road. Speaking of roads. a good
heavy rain would help to put them in
to shape for traffic; but the old
weather witch up the mountain seems
to have gone on a vacation. The fall
grain is in need of moisture and fall
blowing will be greatly facilitated by
a rain of generous proportions.

ALONG The HIGHWAYS
Gleanings by the Pilgrim in His
Wanderings Here and There.

John Payne, one of the pioneer
ranchers of ArbOn valley, this year
raised 100 acres of Turkey Red and a
small acreage of spring wheat and
threshed about $500 bushels of wheat.
The Turkey Red gave an average of
IS bushels per acre, while a 1O-acre
tract of Odessa winter wheat gave an
average of more than 80 bushels per
acre, and an eight-acre field of Blue
stem did equally well. All the wheat
was grown on dry laid. The Turkey
Red tested So to so pounds and is
bringing $3.50 to SLIP per bushel. Mr..
Payne states that in the entire q
years during which he has been en-
gagged in farming in this valley there
never has been a total crop failure.
The average per acre at times has been
very low, almost reaching the total
minus point, but still there never has
been a crop which ven so far as to
fail to provide sufficient flour to the
farmers of the valley to tide them
over to a better harvest. This veteran
rancher is an optimist and looks for
ward to better thugs instead of vast
ing energy in deploring conditions
that have passed into oblivion.
