This is very blue Sunday, and
the most pleasure we have is
writing to the News.
We are having some, very cool
weather, which calls for wood
and not for shade. We were a
little surprised Satur lay morning
when we awoke and found Uncle
Jack Frost had called on US, and
also Sunday morning, but we
should not grumble.
Sorry to see so few correspon-
dents in last weeks issue of the
News, but hope they will all be
on hand this week.
Weare glad to see Jesse Rus
sell home again from Michigan.
Walter Kilgore, of WhitwelI.
called on his best girl Sunday and
if you wand to see him blush.
just ask him how long it takes to
gather chew of pine rosin.

day and Sunday with homefolks.

This part Of the country is on
a boom. We have two saw mills
here, ready to set up, and the
talk is we will have two more
soon. 1t sure is a big help to the
mountain people, as work was so
unhandy. | hope to see this
place settled up, which will be
done, | think, in the near future.
Fred Campbell called on Bud
Kilgore, of Oak Grove, Sunday.
Mr. Kilgore has received a card
from his son. Walter, stating
that he had landed safe in France.
His many friends wish him a safe
return.
Well. Pryor Ridge writer's. why

| heard some girls say they
would like to know who that
soldier boy was who wrote to the
News Girls, try to learn his
name, for Uncle Sam is going to
let a certain boy come home soon,
and We writer hopes to see him. |

The farmers will make a little

late coming there will be good
top crop. Usually the top crop
amounts to very little, and the
one who talks top crop is classed
with the ones people call weather
prophets or new corners, but we
hopeit will make good this year
and give the farmers a good top
crop.
We are getting a little Whit of

A movement is on foot to make
the County Judge the head of the
Highway Commission. This
is as it should be. for no war
rants should be issued unless
countersigned by him. Thus he
will be able to know at any time
the exact condition of road finan-
ces in a section. He should also
countersign all school warrants,
and thus know exactly how much
money is going out for school
uses.

The War Department authorizes publication Of the following cablegram from the commanding general Of the American Expeditionary Forces:
 i St Louis Mo. paper recently re ceiyed here states that sergeant, one Of 5o men sent back in connection with the Liberty loan campaign, is making speeches in which he states:
 The Germans give poisoned candy 10 the children 10 eat and hand gre nades for them 10 play with. They show glee at the children's writhings and laugh aloud when the grenades explode. l saw On American boy, about IT years old, who had been cap tu-ed by the Germans, come back to our -renchs. He had cotton in and about his ears I asked one what the cotton wasfor
 The Germans cut of his ears and sent him back 10 tell us they want 10 fight men," was the answer. They feed Americans tuberculosis grms."

Has the saving of the few pounds of wheat and meat a week andthe sev- eral ounces of butter and sugar by the individual been worth the effor,s
 The bes, answer will be found in tie enormously increased exports os tod to the Allies in the last six months, Fer instance. f2 Ses.94s bushels of wheat and wheat products alone went rom the United States in April. and ;9,snG,T4s bushels were transported in March. The total exports of wheat and wheat products from July 1 to May were l1o,0o0.oO0 bushels!
 Perhaps these figures mean little to yeu until it is remembered that the best expert advice placed the avail. able exportable surplus of wheat from the last harvest variously at from To-. cQ0.000 to S0,000.000 bushels, provided domestic consumption has been car. r.ea on at the accustomed rate.
 Tie difference between 10000, ,000 and lo.0oo.000 to S0.ooo,o bushels has been saved because you and thousands others did with less wheat last winter!
 Proportionate gains have been made possible in the meat shipments be- cause of the coluntary saving of meat by Americans. The total exports of 6eef and pork products for April, for instance. were 359,000,000 pounds. In April of last year the total exports of beef and pork were only 100000. 900 pounds. The increase over last years exports is seen to be 169.000,000 pounds. 1690o0.0oo pounds of beef and pork sent in one month by patri- ots who have answered the Food Ad- miniStration's call both for increased production Of meat and for reduced consumption.
 Let these and similar figures show ing proportionate increases in the ex- port of fats and sugar to the Allies answer the question ''Is it worth while these little daily savings you and I make in our kitchens ?"-Bulle- tin No. 116.
