MEATLESS DAYS ARE
SUCCESS IN WISCONSIN

Madison, Wis, Oct. 1.-THE meat.
less and wheatless days have been
made j success and Wisconsin once
more has broken the lead In helping
Uncle Sam win the war.
This was the eonslusion reached by
Magus Swehson. State Food Admin
istra or, today. after he hal received
reports from nearly every county IN
the state.
The second meatless Tuesday was
observed by practically every hotel
and restaurant in the State and there
was the same observance Of the sec
ond wheatless Wednesday.
The patriotism of the State in being
the first to establish these days has
received the highest praise from
Washington Copies of Mr.. Swenson's
proclamation have been sent TO Wash
ington IN response to hurried call
for them, and these will be sent to
every State in the Union. Mr. Sven
son has been asked also to give the
other states the benefit of his expert
ence.
To the man who has given mp prac.
tically all Of his time 70 the purely
honorary position-sO far as salary
goes of State Food Administrator,
the response Of Wisconsin TO the Ma.
tional appeal for food conservation Is
particularly pleasing

our sacrifices

without meat one day in each week
that we win save = 200 ,000,0 pounds

II want now to acknowledge ihe
patriotic spirit with which the no

the conservation days We have a
check on them. of cOures. and we
know that the hotel or restaurant
which served meat on Tuesday was
the exception in nearly every city
and town in the State Many Of them

Care Of Younu Turkeys

Absolutely no food at all should I've
given young turkeys until the third day
after Matching, and then the important
question is less what to feed than how
much. Boitad egg mixed with rolled
oats, rubbed fine. and good third OF
cracker crumbs Is the best food. Don't
let them have much. just bite or two.
Don't be Overcredulous to the often
toni tale that baby turk has no appe.
tite. Some OF them are as greedy as
pigs and their digestive apparatus is
so delicateiy adjusted that Il few bites
too much upset them. Leave corn and
corn products entirely out of their
menn for best results and keep varied
assortment Of grits always In reach

German-implanted idea was widespread

The doctrine is dead now. IL vanished

Glorious France


Making every allowance for the fine
work Of the British and Italians IN the
world conflict. this is in very special
sense Frances war. It is France at "hich
the kaiser aims his most savage ana
smashing blows. 1t is France ne IS seek
inv 10 ruin by killing her men. sendihg
her women to untimely graves starving
her children, looting her factories anu
destroying her orchards.
And amid all this wreck and ruin there
stands that glorious country returning
blow for blow-the marvel Of an admlring
world
She stopped the Huns at the MaTne'
Almost alone. she sustained the attacks
on the somme. BY herself she replied to
the barbarians at Verdun. She Is still
holding $50 miles Of the 40 miles front
Her troops are repelling attacks along
the Aisne. They are cooperating with
the British in the latest thrust IN flan-
ders
At Salonica the best troops are French.
The routed troops OF huiilaH'" VIZ
organized by French officers. BelganS
and Serbs and Greeks have been equip
ped and re-armed by the French. The
arsenals Of France have furnished the
big guns and the ammunition, not only
for the splendid French armies. but also
for some Of the allies. France has spent
eighteen and half billion dollars for
war purposes Of which only one and one
fifth billions were borrowed, and she
loaned one billion to friendly nations.
And all this magnificent record has
been achieved, despite the fact that some
of the best of her iron, coal, agricultural
and industrial districts have been in the
hands of the brutal invader.
