WHAT .CONIRADE' MEANS IN
WAR.

A writer in the April American
magazine says:

trousers had been torn clean away
He was SO caked with mud and
blood that his features were almost
unrecognizable. He did not walk.
He staggered from side 90 side
Sometimes he almost fell But on
his back he carried his comrade.

could watch these walking wounded
But those two? NO tears from

The Thoroughbred
By Vincent C. Er1y

One OF the most annoying things
in the world is a neck tie that re-
fuses TO slip and it is doubly an
noying when the collar comes un-
done at each tug Of the tie. Lee
Williams watched with interest the
patient struggles OF his roommate,
Maurice Turner. with such a tie and
such a collar.
why don't YOU wear another
tie" Lee suggested at length.
Because ! am going out with
Violet and she likes this tie. she
gave it TO me. in fact, last Christ
mas.
oh" There was silence for some
minutes.
you don't need TO worry about
it. You were out with her yester-
day" Maurice said as he got the
tie into place at last

"Of course: so have T."
As Maurice hurried TO keep his
appointment ne thought of the con-

roommate. Was their mutual Iik-

them? Things could not 80 on as
they had been going for the past
two years. Violet would have to make
la choice between them sooner or
later. What # she chooses Lee? II
was most likely she would. for Lee
was talented, heir to a large fortune
and a scion of am old aristocratic
southern family, while ne was work
ing his way through college and had
nothing before him but an oppor-
tunity TO work hard 10 attain big
things in the world. NJ would be
a long time before ne could reach
wealth. But Violet wasn't the sort
OF girl that wealth counted with, he
told himself-the character and
worth OF a man would be what
would impress her more. Even
there, Lee did not fan down. He
was a true friend and honest as the
day was long. The prospects Of
winning Violet did not look very
bright, Maurice felt. but still he was
not going 10 give her mp until he
was sure Lee was the man of her

Cign countries, as il is generally ad-
mitted that truck which Will make

Michigan will make good through
out the world.
Actual experience i'm the haulage
problem md a knowledge of the
short comiHgs i'm the motor truck
field brought about the design Of
the Acasou. The builders had def
mite purpose i'm mind. and that was
the construction of the truck from
the users point OF view. The casual
observer would perhaps see nothing
radically different i'm the Acason,
but the company claims one feature
which is prominently present TO tho
expert, and To the exclusion of Ill
others AMI that is its perfect balance
and combination of every unit from
the motor TO the spring bolts. The
motor is described as a veritable
Craft-horse among engines 1t is es-
sentially truck motor built of the
finest materials and sturdy, and the
crankshaft has twice the elastic
limit and strength Of the average
crankshaft The bearings were con-
structed TO stand up under the
severest lind of service. and the
lubricating system performs its
duty at any angle the truck may be
placed at without tipping over. This
feature means much TO those who
operate trucks in billy territories,
and in operating them in and out
Of steep excavations. Another fea-
ture of the truck is the ease of az

To effect the needed saving OF wheat
we are wholly dependent upon the
voluntary assistance of the American
people and we ask that the following
rules shall be observed:
i. Householders to use not to exceed
4 total OF " pounds per week of
wheat products per person. This
means not more than Ia. pounds OF
victory bread containing the required
percentage OF substitutes and one-Lalf
pound of cooking Hour macaroni,
crackers. pastry, pies. cakes wheat
breakfast cereals. all combined.
2 Public eating places and clubs to
observe two wheatless days per week.
Monday and Wednesday. az at present
In addition thereto. not to serve to
any one guest at any one meal an
aggregate of breadstuffs. macaroni.
crackers. pastry, pies, cakes. wheat
brea kfast cereals. containing n total
Of more than two ounces Of wheat
-four No wheat products 10 be served
unless specially ordered Public eat
ing establishments not to buy more
than six pounds of wheat products for
each ninety meals served. thus con
forming with the limitations requested
OF the householder
3. Retailers TO sell not more ,han
one eighth OF barrel of -four TO any
town customer at any one time and
not more than one-quarter OF barrel
to any country customer at any one
time, and in no case TO sell wheat
products without the sale of an equal
weight of other cereals
4. We ask the bakers and grocers In
reduce the volume OF Victory bread
sold, by delivery Of the three-quarter
pound loaf where one pound was sold
before. and cores bonding proportions
I'm other weights. We also ask bakers
not to Increase the amount of their

cent. OF the average monthly amount
purchased In the four months prior to
March l.
8. Manufacturers using wheat prod
ucts for noD-food purposes should
cease such use entirely.
9. There is no limit upon the use of
other cereals, fiours. and meals, corn
harley. buckwheat. potato flour. ct
cetera
Many thousand families throughout
the land are now using no wheat prod
ucts whatever. except very small
amount for cooking purposes, and are
doing so In perfect health and satisfac-
ton. There is no reason why all of
the American people who are able to
cook In their own households cannot
sulsist perfectly well with the use of
less wheat products than one and one
half pounds a week. and we specially
ask the well-to-do households in the
country TO follow this additional pro
gramme In order that we may provide
the necessary marginal supplies for
those parts of the community less able
TO adapt themselves to SO large pro-
portion OF substitutes.
In order that we shall be able to
make the wheat exports that are alb
solutely demanded OF us to maintain
the civil population and soldiers Of the
allies and our own army, we propose
to supplement the voluntary co-opera-
ton of the public by a further limita-
ton OF distribution. and we shall place
AT once restrictions on distribution
which Will be adjusted from time To
time to secure as nearly equitable dis
tribution as possible. With the arrival
of harvest we should be able to relax
such restrictions. Until then we ask
for the necessary patience. sacrifice
and cooperation of the distributing
trades.

WESTERN CANADA'S
CROPS
Got an Excellent Start. Big
Yields Now Assured.

Never in the history of Western
Canada did the seed enter the ground
under more favorable conditions. The
weather during the month of April
was perfect for seeding operations
and from early morning until late at
night the seeders were at work, and
every acre that could be profltably
sown was placed under requisition.
Farmers entered heart and soul into
the campaign Of greater production.
There was the time and the opportu-
nifty for careful preparation, and as a
consequence with favorable weather
from now on there will be a vastly in
creased yield. They realized it was a
duty they owed to humanity to produce
all that they could on the land, not
only this year but next as well. In
addition to the patriotic aspect, they
are aware that the more they produce
the greater will be their own return
In dollars and cents.
In many districts wheat seeding was
completed by the 1st of May, after
"hANl halC OQlS anu DdIleY Ou IdTRtI
acreages than usual were planted.
AS has been said, favorable weather
conditions made possible excellent
seed-bed preparation, and the seed has
gone into the ground in unusually good
shape. The available moisture in the
soil has been added to by rains, which
have not been so heavy, however, as to
Interfere long with the work in the
fields. The grain is terminating read

Ing. -
An optimistic feeling prevails among
farmers that Western Canada will reap
a record harvest. If the season from
now on is as favorable as it has begun,
these hopes should be realized. Mr..
J. D. McGregor of the Federal Food
Board, who is also an old and success
full farmer in Western Canada, assert
ed few days ago at Calgary that crop
conditions throughout the Prairie
Provinces were excellent. Speaking
generally" he said, "the crops have
never gone into the ground in better
shape than this year. and with an
even break Of luck as far as the wealth
er is concerned, there should be an
enormous crop" His present duties in
connection with the Food Control

SAW POINT OF RESEMBLANCE
Youngsters Comment, However, Could

A fond auntie was left to amuse her
small niece and nephew while their
mother went shopping. James became
deeply interested in his toy engine and
tiny Ruth was absorbed III watching

One of these appealed to her particu-

"Oh, auntie, isn't she pretty? She's

"Yes she is lovely. And see what

The last word caught serious-mind-
