CEORGIA'S GREAT
FOOD REQUIREMENTS
HUGE QUANTITIES REQUIRED
TO FEED THE PEOPLE, AND
PRODUCTION LAST YEAR.

The News has been handed the fol-
lowing figures of what is needed to
feed the 100000 population of
Georgia-comprising $4,000 fami-
lies-one year, and the quantity of
each article of food that was produc-
ed in the state in 1916.
We do not vouch for the accuracy
of the figures, but present them as
an interesting contribution to the
campaign that is now being waged
for greater food production in Geor-
gia. They present the situation
more forcibly than all written arti-
cles and public speakers possibly can.

Mo- own Looaina Road.

Powerful wide tired trucks are now
being used in logging regions in Oregon
and Washington, which virtually make
their own roads as they go. One type
of these new cars is described In the
Popular Mechanics Magazine. 1t has
front tires ten inches wide and back
tires twenty inches wide. An expert
enced driver carefully selects his course
as he goes over route for the hrs'
time. and the weight Of his machine
makes a road as it moves along. A
few trips over the same line Of trave
serve to make a hard, smooth surface
which will Withstand considerable bac
weather. -Four wheeled trailers ar
often used with these trucks.

THE PEOPLE Of Milford must re-
alize that they individually are re-
sponsible for saving trouble for all
the people through practice of eco
nomical use of everyday necessities.
Take the items of light and water
alone-bOth are absolute necessities
for each individual, be he or she part
of a family or a single unit detached.
The question is now to be faced,
whether we are to have any electric
light service to supply home lighting,
as we'll as manufacturing enterprises.
It is also a question how much longer
coal can be had to pump water for
the use of the home and domestic
purposes or for the protection Of
property from fire. These are very
real conditions and unless the Light
and Water Commission Of Milford can
secure coal from some source, you
are quickly liable to find neither
water or Eight service in home, store,
factory or in the fire plugs. We earn
estly asksthe, people to cut down their
lights to the very smallest, and watch
their leaking spigots and other meth
ods whereby water is running to
waste. This may mean the difference
between actual deprivation Of both
these necessities in Milford, and the
continued limited use of these do
mestic services Of necessity for health
and comfort. Will you heed this now
It is up to you, each and every one,
to do your part in this war expert
ence-see that you do it. The Light
and Water Commission should not
turn on the street lights when the
moon is shining all the night, and
should not turn them on until the
moon ceases to shine at any time.
The failure to get coal, will mean that
manufacturing will stop. The men
and women employed where power is
used will have to be idle until fuel
can be had, and those deprived Of
their opportunity to earn their usual
wages will be unable to buy supplies
for their families. The present time
is a serious one for all of us to dea
with. Every one must help, or viii
full waste will make woeful wan
later. It is up to you. what will yol
do about it?

Climates change of course. Once this region

The Anniversary of Bunker Hill

Today is the anniversary of the battle of Bunker
Hill the first great battle of the revolution though
not great battle measured by the standard of the
battles of the present The anniversaries of
battles in American history possess greater signf-
icance now than at any time within the last half
century for the minds of the people have been vio-
lently turned toward war.
On the afternoon of June II, 1775, say at O'clock
the Americans had suffered what must have seemed
to them irreparable disaster forecast of the end
of the American rising which had yet formally
attained the dignity of a revolution
But on second thought it not defeat
though the Americans had been disodged and driven
from Breeds Hill An before the superior force
of British regulars had been repulsed by handful
of unframed Americans In that effort all the gun
powder of the Colonials had been expended
The defeat was victory won at the cost of the
gallant Warren 1t demonstrated the fighting capacity
of the Americans and increased the spirit of resist
anee. We now look back upon Bunker Hill as a
glorious episode in military history the begin
ming of it. To the trained British it must have re-
vealed the difficulty if not the hopelessness of the
task they had undertaken
