WHY WE MUST SAVE FOOD.

The 1917 wheat crop in France was
less than half normal, using the crop
of 1913 as a basis of comparison.
There was a shortage of 176, 900
bushels, or 1913 per cent. The potato
crop was only within one-third Of nor
maj. The sugar beet crop showed a
deficit of 67.9 per cent. Her meat
herds in the early fall showed a short
age of l,S00,0 900 animals.
Those are a few Of the reasons
America must feed her associates in
the war They are no longer able to
feed themselves, and unless we come
to the rescue are face to face with
starvation. And starvation means de-
feat in the war.

BURY THE MEAT AK.

Buffalo Voice: One of the cheering
features of the war is that we went
into it three years from a presidential
campaign. In all probability, the war
will be concluded before the end of the
present administration Until the a
tional conventions two years hence, or
political parties should bury the
Ratchet. A Ratchet can be buried so
that the handle sticks out INT is of
easy access, so until peace is declared
let's nave the meat axes around handy,
just in case of emergency, but let's not
use 'em.

WASHINGTON, March 3O.--Forty new
Austrian divisions, approximately 10000
men, have been distributed along the
italian front, the Italian embassy was ad-
vised to-day by cable from Rome. This;
activity has convinced Italian military
men that the battle in France will not
prevent an offensive against Italy This
view also is shared by the allied leaders
the cable said
That the battle in France viii not pre-

opinion OF competent military men q

The Germans admittedly own AZ

up in Paris were of % centimeter size.
1t would therefore be possible, said the

withstand the strain of acting as a

An initial charge that would send

day. - Either il would have to be Of
a size which would make it unwieldy
or the tremendous force used would
quickly destroy it. Egger Is idea as he
outlined it to me in a sudden burst of
enthusiasm, depended for its success
merely upon a comparatively ordinary
gun which would send the whole lam
mated shell forward at the unusual in
itial velocity of from $500 to $500

Mr.. Buckley, bat in principle it is the

SEVERANCE TIRES
OF BOARDING DEER
Has Shot Four Which Were Destroying

CHESTER, March 30-A herd Of y
deer, which has passed the winter at
Brockways Mills and has lived, in part at
least, on the alfalfa fields of j. w Sew
erance. has been reduced to IS and, ac
cording to Mr. Severance there may be
further casualties
While he is not an enemy Of wild life
Mr. Severance has spent much time,
thought and money in getting his fields
of alfalfa started and he does not think
that the duty Of providing sustenance for
the herd should devolve on him and, fur
thermore. he does not intend that it shall.
He also feels that he is at least entitled
to the courtesy Of an answer to letters
addressed to a branch Of the state gov
eminent. In discussing his grievance Mr.
Severance said
Il own several pieces Of alfalfa and
these deer live on the hill east Of my

ing these alfalfa fields, on which they
