PLANT DISEASES CAUSE BIG LOSS

Importance of controlling pre-
ventable plant diseases. particularly
as wartime measure. is empha-
sized by the war emergency board OF
American plant pathologists at u
conference held at Madison, Wis.
according to II. p. Barss of o. A. c.,
commissioner for the west.
II bunt and loose smut OF wheat
had been completely controlled last
year. the United States could have
shipped an additional 33,O00,O0O
bushels to the allies. A half million
bushels more of rye might have
been sent TO Europe, had IL not been
for ergot. The total production of
barley could have been increased
more than 100000 bushels and
the amount OF grain exported 35 per
cent by the use of formaldehyde
and hot water treatments for the
smuts.
Loss from oat smut in 1917 equal
ed the amount OF grain exported to
the allies and neutrals In the year
93.572.000 bushels. Smut destroyed
twice as much corn as was exported
last year. Late blight of potatoes
reduced the crop nearly 92.000,000
bushels. or approximately ten times
the amount exported last season.
Loss through two diseases OF beans
anthrochose and bacterial blight
amounted to almost twice the guam
tity of dry beans exported between
July 1 and December 81, 1917.

WOULD QUIT BUT UNCLE
SAM WAS SHORT HANDED

p. J. Gallagher who visited Camp
Lewis last week brings back good
story on a Harney county buccaroo
who recently joined the army after
years riding the range in the interior.
This particular bronco buster had
always enjoyed the reputation OF per-
sonal independence, and for quitting
every job he ever had the first time
the boss called him down"
According to Pats story this buc-
CARGO was assigned to the remount
division and was out on the field
with a bunch OF men training artil-
lery horses when one OF the animals
broke and ran. He was ordered to
bring the horse back. When he las
oed the animal he handled II rather
roughly and the Sergeant I'm charge
"called him down" tartly informing
him he was handling Uncle Sans
horses and not cayuses on the range.
At the barracks later a number OF
his bunkies were kidding him for
they had known him over in Harney.
When one OF them asked him:
why don't you quit, Jack, after
call down like tiat?" he was greeted
with this reply from the recruit:
'I would quit the blame job, but
they're short handed here. Ontario

SAVE The WHEAT;
USE MORE POTATOES
Hoover Tells People Wheat
Conservation Is Big Problem
HEBBERD MAKES APPEAL
Allies Face Famine Conditions Unless
America Comes to Their Aid
At Once.

Spokane. - Hoover has asked the
people to cut wheat products to a
greater extent than ever before. Saw
ing of wheat is the problem of the
hour. Potatoes must largely become
the new staff Of life.
To save food by eating 1t sounds
like a conservation paradox But at
some seasons Of the year there Is an
abundance of some one food or in
some certain locality there is an enor-
nous crop of some one thing.
In such instances 1t is now ma
tional duty to eat as much as possible
Of this particular food and release it's
equivalent in other foods.
Such is the case right now with
the potato. There was an enormous
potato crop last year. But, partly
because OF the transportation conges
ton, the potato supply has not been
properly distributed to the consumer
I'VE are indeed fortunate to have
potatoes in abundance" said Charles
Hebberd Food Administrator for
Washington. IF we had no wheat at
all we would even then be a thousand
times better off than our Allies We
have plenty Of meat, all kinds of
cereals except wheat, vegetables and
the Injuries of life. Our Allies will
do we'll If they get by this crisis with.
out actually facing famine conditions.
Wheat is the food that will save them.
1t can be shipped without spelling,
and they have the mills to grind it.
They bake their bread in public ovens.
We must send them wheat. We must
save 1t. The Allies are now using
equal parts of substitutes with all
wheat flour"

SUBSTITUTE PRICES
HERE MEET AVERAGE

With housewives and consumer
all over the state ausstioning the
legitimacy Of the prices Of wheat
substitutes. the United States Food
Administration for Colorado has r.
Gently made The announcement that
the cost Of wheat flour here u low
Or than in any state In the Union sx-
cept Oregon. and that the average
prices Of the substitute grains 10
practically level with the prices Of
all the other states.
Substitute grains are not raised in
Colorado to any great extent and
their cost with freight and other
charges added IL bound to make the
price Of products from these grains
relatively higher than the price Of
wheat.
Considerable hope 10 being felt IN
food Administration offices through
out the state that with increasSd
manufacture and improved methods
the price Of substitutes will gradu-
ally DO lowered until 4 nomal price
has been established.
