Cefore New Observation-Disclosures
Choen Says People Fail to Realize
Seriousness Of Shortage.

Des lMoines, Oct. Iowa people
ma have TO 60 without sugar entirely
for few weeks or possibly a month
before the first Of the GEAR
THIS astonishing p.csc Of news was
given out hv Food Administrator NJ
II. Cohen Yesterday after checking up
on the stocks used in september Iowa
is nearly two and half million
pounds of sugar over the states allot-
mcnt now and this shortage must he
made up before the end of the year.
The states allotment for the month
of September was 100000 pounds, but
due to the heavy canning 500, con
pounds were used. The allotment OF
two pounds per capita will be kept up
as long as possible but ohly by the
sfrictest conserving can the deficiency
be made up.
Cheok Every Pound.
In order to more thoroughly impress
upon the minds Of retail grocers tho
seriousness of the situation. question
naires were sent out yesterday to every
retailer in the state asking them to
keep strict check on every pound OF
sugar sold for canning. Only fifteen
pounds at time will be allowed to a
person now for canning, and while the
sugar division will attempt to care
for all canning orders during october,
it is only by strictest economy that
the householder will be assured the
supply of two pounds. per capita for
the remainder of the year.
Situation Not Realized.
Iowa people do not realize how
serious the sugar situation is said
Mr.. Cohen. with nearly two and a
half million pounds to make UP on
our regular allowance in the next three
months. it behooves every one of us to
use Just as little sugar as we possibly
can and even go without few days a
week to be assured our present per
capita amount
1.-THE department is anxious to take
care Of all canning orders, and while
October perhaps will be lighter in this
respect than September, there are late
peaches and many things to be canned
this month that require much sugar. so
everyone must just buckle down to
the fact that they have got to go slow
on sugar or go without toward the
end of the year"

LIFE OF GENERAL PERSHING

(Copyrght. 1918, by William FoX) THE future generals father, after 2 establishing the mother and her son in d house in La Clede, went back to his work on the railroad. Finally the last spike was driven at Hannibal, the terminus. The Hannibal and St. Joseph since has become a small link in the Chicago, Burlington and Quin~ cy, one of the mighty railway systems 4of the country; but at that time is was a very important road. It's ter minaI at St. Joseph was the gateway to the far west. Here outfits were made up for the great pilgrimage. California was the goal of many of the pioneers, and it is probable that John F. Pershing had that golden country in mind as his final destina- ton when the birth of his son pre- vented further migration.

 ETron the completion of his task the railroad constructor returned to La Clede, and, investing his savings in a general store, decided to make Missouri his home.
 The store was a profitable venture IL was the only one in town and every

 In La. Clede a majority of the in. habitants were Southern sym patl11z- CTS: but, while the elder PershinS openly asserted his allegiance to the cause of the Union. he still held the personal friendship and the respech of the more influential citizens. In deed, he had their trust to such an extent that, by common consent, he was the banker of the community, and all the money in town was ire quently in his hands.
 Notwithstanding that his neigh bors respected the political views of Pershing, numerous bands of bush Whackers, those lawless raiders of the State who professed allegiance to tho Confederacy. but actually exercised it toward neither side, sent him warn
