Between 80 and 90 days from now
will begin the actual shipping Of food
to meet the Food Administration's re-
construction program; will begin that
intense strain on our food supplies
which will make Americans feel the
world shortage in food; and will be-
gin also q period Of still greater pros
perity for the farmer and stockman
Of the West.
A parting message from Herbert
Hoover to the Colorado Food Admin
istration sent out Just before the food
chief sailed for Europe stated that
within 80 to 60 days ships will begin
to be diverted from military use to
the carrying across Of the 10000, 900
tons Of food which America has Pied
ged to the hungry Of Europe.
Mr.. Hoover pointed out that the
first food commodities which would
feel the effects Of heavy exporting will
be butter and condensed milk, and
stated that Immediately the shipping
begins American people must make
q sharp cut in their consumption Of
these dairy products.
Another immediate effect Of tho
shipping program vii be the stimulus
to the live stock industry Of the West,
according to the Food Administration,
which has Just received the report a
Dr.. Vernon Kellogg, sent to Europe
n the Food Administration to conduct

For the past six weeks, the ban has

weeks, we have been strictly quaran.

have taken all sorts Of precautions
against the dreadful disease which has
been raging up and down the coun-
try, almost everywhere except in our
own county. So successful have we
been in keeping the plague from our
midst that the county quarantine will
be called Of tomorrow.
DR.. Rockefeller, physician in charge,
says that the situation is SO satisfac-
tory that, unless something unexpect-
ed happens, he will lift the quarantine
Saturday, November 23. This, how
ever, does not mean any relaxation
of the strict quarantine against the
outside world which has so far kept
Gunnison county immune Of the dread
full epidemic which is literally killing
people by the hundreds in every coun-
ty all over the United States.
After more than six weeks Of va

work, as schools will open next Mon
day thruout the county, 80 far as To-

Of both the Normal and High School
