Imagination is often useful m, al times when you must give your wife an account of how you spent last eve ming. If you have imagination you will immediately think of some clever and original reply, such as, q was sitting up with a sick friend" Some people have no imagination at all and get into a way of telling the truth about everything, which of course makes them very disagreeable companions. There have been people with much imagination, but few with enough to see any charm in other peoples chill Gren. Of course, if you have too much imagination you may be given free board and room by the state, pleas ant life, free from care, but rather confining.-Detroit Journal.

A City of Distances.

Mesa, AriZ., streets are 80 feet wide and every block comprises ten acres. 4 residence building site there aver ages about an acre. When you ask an address in Mesa and the obliging inhabitant directs you to walk six hlocks, it doesn't sound far, but you realize the distance before you arrive, says the Fl Paso Herald. Mesa was laid out by Mormons who favored un- usually wide streets for attractiveness and who made the ten-acre blocks in order that every family might be more or less self-sustaining in time of h. dian raids when the family garden might be the only source of food.

"EVefy aspect or the wheat sIrua- tion both present and prospective. tn-
 tensifies the need for the greatest possible limitation in the American consumption of wheat and wheat prod ucts. If present restrictions should be in the slightest degree relaxed ir would result in serious want for the people of the allied nations before the new crop can reach the market
 "The food administration estimates on the first of June a total available supply until the new harvest of about fifty-six million bushels. Of this. thir- before new wheat Is available for ex- port. If we are to maintain the ab- solutely necessary shipments to our army and the Allies, that leaves about twenty-six million bushels for domes- tic consumption for the next two months. Normal American consump- tion is something over forty million bushels a month. so that the most liberal consumption at home should be only one-third of normal
 The new harvest will not be gen. erally available in flour until the mid dle of August or early in September. although in the extreme south 1t Will be somewhat earlier.
 At a meeting of the federal food administrators in Washington. repre- senting all forty-eight states, 1t was the unanimous view that even fl the harvest does prove abundant 1t win be the first duty of the American peO- pie to place every grain they can save into storage as against possible bad years ahead. In consequence there should be no anticipation of unlimited wheat bread until the war Is over.
 Some of the most inconvenient re- strictions can no doubt be modified with the arrival of a large harvest, but if we are honest with ourselves wes will maintain restrictions requiring the use of some substitutes in both domestic and commercial bread

TIE ALL.IMPoRrANT THING

The most important feature of the food-saVIng program to- day 10 the rAtlonlng of wheat flour and other products on a basIs of six pounds per person per month.
 In some sections of Arizona the merchants have voluntarily installed systems for carrying out thIs plan, but In most of the counties the matter Ia left en- tlreIy to the consumers.
 Regardless of the method em- pIoyed, It 10 the duty of every head of a family, to every IndI- Vldual, to see that his wheat consumption does not exceed the sIx-pound allowance. Whole hearted and rigid compliance with the Wheat-ratIonIng pro- gram Is Imperative at this time if Arizona as a state Is to do her duty In furnishing the fight CTS for democracy with nourlsh- ing food.
