Money i'll Wool.

Messrs Gillespie & Hale, who have
been contracting wool in this immed
late vicinity for the past few weeks
report that they now have on hand
upwards of $4,000 pounds awaiting
shipment, which when loaded Will
exceed 4 medium sized car load. This
amount of wool represents a cash
outlay of over $4,000 which has
been paid out in cash to the farmers
in this immediate vicinity by this
firm alone, and this amount will be
swelled somewhat by the purchases
made by other parties who have been
buying wool here.
This is neat little sum to be dis
tributed over the tract in the vicin-
ity OF Jerome. and is evidence that
our farmers are fast coming to their
own. No wonder you see new auto
mobiles on the streets every day, and
if you would be in the swim, buy a
band of sheep.

\ Narrow Escape

An extra train on the Short Line
going west on Monday struck a rig
at crossing just this side OF Wen

the horse, the occupants barely es-
Gaping with their lives The rig was
being driven by c. r. Black, of Wen
dell. who had for his companion, H
+. Mackley, of Carydon, Iowa, who is
visiting at the formers home. The
occupants evidently did not see the
approaching train, as they were
squarely on the track when the en-
CINE struck the buggy, demolishing
the same. and killing the horse. Mr.
Mackley received "a broken collar
bone ami mad one of his feet badly
crushed, bul both congratulate them
selves thai they barely escaped in
slant death. People are prone TO
show too much carelessness In cross
ing the railroad tracks, as at this
time special trains are likely to be
passing at any time, and one should
take precautions to know that there
is none near at hand when crossing
the tracks

Heceta Plant Makes Big Pack

Craig Millar, president of the Swift-Arthur- Crosby company, returned to Seattle Oct. 12 after the best season this plant has ever had. The seasons pack of 63, ,000 cases is said to be a new record for a one.line cannery, the output of this plant in 1916 being 4O,O and in 1915, 35, cases. The making of this pack involved some close work, as well as an exceptional spirit of loyalty on the part of the crew, as the plant ran out of cans in the midst of the run. A new shipment, which had been hastily dispatched from Seattle, arrived at 9 p. m. of the day the supply gave out, and the crew went to work and kept at it until 2 a. m. to clean up the fish waiting on the floor; and after a rest of four hours they turned to again for a day's work, so that nothing was lost.-Pacific Fisherman.

FEDERAL FOOD
 ADMINISTRATOR
 WARNS PUBLIC
[C a b blegramI
 Juneau, Dec, 8, 1917.

F. E. Bronson,
 Wrangell.
 Herbert Hoover, national food administrator, advises us December sixth of the circulation of unWar- ranted and malicious reports in Chicago by parties interested in exploiting sale of meat and pro testing against wheatless and meatless days as unnecessary sac. rihces by American people.
 The administrator characterizes all such utterances as foolish and unpatriotic. He says that owing to the critical situation of the worlds food today opposition to government conservation measures is comparable to opposition to the draft bureau. Failure in saving food means direct and immediate loss of life aside from serious ln- terference with our war measures in feeding our Allies: that results from meatless days have for the first time created sufficient visible supply ot meat to allow us to par. tially comply with quantities re. quested by the Allies for shipment this month, and urges continued devotion to food conservation; further, that notwithstanding the export ation of the whole of the surplus nineteen seventeen wheat crop above normal demand of our own people it is necessary to re- strict the export of wheat so as to reta,n in the United States sufici- ent supply to carry our own people until next harvest and that even with all the conservation made we are Still unable to load over four hundred thousand tons of food stutfs urgently required by the Allies this month. Give widest publicity.

Wrangell has responded Tn her usual wholehearted way to the nations appeal for pledges for food conservation.
 The critical situation of the worlds food supply has made conservation measures impera- tive. The people of Wrangell are alive to the situation and no argument was necessary to get them to sign the food pledges for wheatless, meatless and wasteless meals.
 The following letter written by the secretary of the local food conservation committee tells how smoothly t h e conse rvation machinery is working in Wran- gell:
 Wrangell, Alaska, Dec. 10, 1917. Mir. F. w. Herbert, Sec'y Food Saving Committe.
 Juneau, Alaska.
 Sir:
 Pray pardon my apparent neg lect ill reporting our progress in the Wrangell campaign. This is apparent and not real. On the evening of November 17th I called a public meeting at the Wrangell Town Hall and appointed the fol- lowing permanent committee. Chairman H. w. Gartley, w. H. Warren, F. B. Leonard, Rev. H. P. Corser and Capt. H. w. Hab- kirk of the Salvation Army. On Nov. 1oth this committee met, elected F. E. Bronson secretary, and apportioned the town of Wran- gell among the members of the committee, each member being assigned distinct district.
 A thorough canvas was made On Nov. goth, every family being visited with gratifying results. the pledges given and promised being one hundred per cent of the fam lilies resident in Wrangell. I en. close list of the pledges secured and a return of the reports secured at the close of the first week, Dec. Is. Enthusiastic assistance has been rendered the committee by Miss Edith E. Carhart, principal of the Wrangell Public School, who appointed committee of young girls to collect the reports. A few cards are short. These will be secured and forwarded later. 1 am proud to say that as a loyal American community Wrangell claims place in the first rank.
 Respectfully,
 F. E. Bronson,
 Secretary.
