ED TO HEAD UNION IN PER

Met with Prosecution.

Idaho is determined that this state
shall lead the country in the unanlmity
with which her housewives will sign the
government s food pledge cards during
the intensive campaign for food con
servation that will be waged through
out the United States the week of Octo-
Der 81 to 2S. Dispatches from Boise are
to the effect that the committee in
charge of the movement in Idaho will
not relent its efforts until Idaho stands
at the head of the states of the Union
in the percentage of her housewives
who have signed the pledge.
Will Not Seize Food.
f. +. Bicknell, state food admins
traitor, dispatches from the capital as
sert, has again called attention to the
attempt which is certainly malicious
and probably seditious, being made in
some quarters to create the impression
that the food administration proposes
to use the information obtained on these
pedge cards to confiscate or limit the
amount of food in the home
He says these statements are abso-
lutely false, since the administration
has neither the wish nor the power to
interfere in this manner and is bend
ing every energy to aid the consumer
in all ways possible.
Information in regard to such mali
eious reports should be promptly re-
ported to the office of the food admin
istrator, at No. 423 Empire building,
Boise, and it will be followed to it's
source and the authors of such mislead-
ing rumors will be severely dealt with,
according to the food administrator.
All Should Sign Cards.
Idaho's administrator finds that
many persons are already following as
closely as possible the directions issued
by the food administration and feel
they are therefore not required to sign
the pledge that will be offered to them
during the campaign. Mr.. Bickneu
says this is mistaken attitude, because
they should realize that they can great
ly aid the cause of food conservation by
signing the card and displaying the EN-
blem that will be issued, indicating they
have so signed
1.-The country said Mr.. Bicknel
needs the knowledge and evidence
that the women of Idaho are willing ant
anxious to show their patriotism in thi
definite way, for, said he, food viii

Nine Infantry, Three
Artillery and Two Cavalry
Companies at Fl. Niagara

Nine infantry, two cavalry and
three artillery companies have al
ready been formed at the Officers
Reserve Camp at Fort Niagara, y. Y,
where many of the young men from
this city who enlisted have been
sent. according to a letter here.
About one-third of the $500 men,
hers of the camp have already re-
ported and are being assigned to
companies according to preferences
expressed in applications. The mess
shacks and some of the living quar-
ters are being rushed to completion
by a small army of carpenters.
Training will probably be started
this week and all companies will be
given infantry drill for about five
weeks. One of the amusing situa-
tions. according to a letter from
camp. is the seeming oversupply OF
reserve lieutenants. One company
has eight. but this is only temporary
and will be properly adjusted before
the camp settles down to work.
