ITALIAN PRINCE LIKED
AMERICAN SOUP.

FLORENCE, ITALY. (By mail)
The heir to the throne Of Italy has
tasted and approved American soup.
Good American beef and vegetables
all cooked together were its compo-
nent parts, and His Highness, the
Prince Of Piedmont, liked its dem.
.ocratic flavor.
The Prince, at the time, was in
the soup kitchen which the Ameri.
can. Red Cross had just opened in
Florence. He made a thorough in
spection Of the plant, in the compa-
ny Of Captain Akin, Delegate for the
American Red Cross in the Florence
District, and seized the opportunity
of expressing his thanks for the
thoroughness and friendliness with
which the organization had done it's
work in Italy.
The American Red Cross now has
thirty-four kitchens in Italy, which
serve nearly 100000 rations a
month.

MILK CHEAP AT FIFTEEN
CENTS.

Milk at Is cents quart is as
| cheap source of protein as sirloin
steak at 34,3 cents a pound, or eggs
at 41.9 cents dozen. Milk at the
same price is as cheap source of
energy as sirloin steak at 21.2 cents
pound or eggs at 20 cents dozen.
Protein and energy are two import
ant necessities for which we eat
food Mig contains the body build
ing materials-protein and mineral
substances, such as lime and phos-
phorous-needed- to renew the body
wastes and promote growth by form
ing new tissues and fluids; and it
also supplies energy for carrying on
body functions.
The average person, the country
over, uses a little more than half
pint of milk daily. 1t is said that the
consumption of milk per capita in
the city of New Orleans is only
about one-half of that of other
large cities. This quantity can be
increased very profitably when safe
milk is available. Many persons
think of milk only as a beverage,
but if they understood that it is in
reality nourishing food they
would increase the allowance. Econ.
omy in diet does not always depend
on limiting the use of certain foods,
but it is sometimes q question of ac-
tually increasing the use Of foods
which furnish nutritive material at
relatively low cost. Milk belongs to
the latter class and the housewife
would do well to study its food value
and decide whether her family is US

A Patriotic Thanksgiving
Menu.

Thanksgiving Day, 1918, will
be the greatest in all history
This year the month Of Novem-
ber, set aside as Of old for re-
|joicing and thanksgiving, il
memorable for events Of victory
and peace. It's celebration should
be made appropriate by patriotic
menus indicative of thrift and
Americanism. A conservation
|program waits on the, American
Thanksgiving dinner. Let nc
one think that the end Of the
war will free us from the need
|of conservation. The call of
more hungry persons than ever
comes from overseas.
We can do a large service in
the month of November if we
will prepare. a simple but sub
stantial homegrown Thanksgiv-
ing meal. The family will be
thankful for simple fare, using
local products for which our
transportation facilities have
not been taxed.
Turkey? Yes, and chickens,
too, instead of beef and pork
needed for export; plenty of
gravy to save the butter for
Shipment; oysters in their ma
tive states; wild rabbit for those
who are fortunate enough to
have them; pies with one crust
and filled deep with fruit and
vegetables; cranberries sweet
ened with honey or syfups; tur-
nips. squash or onions in place
of vegetables out of season
suparless confections. native
nuts for desert.
In short, use local perishable
products to save transportation.
The following menu in which
much may be prerared the dav
hofo~n the dinner is for a family
desiring simplicity. Syrups
may be used for sweetening the
pudding. The salad may be
omitted if desired. a gain in Ia

easing up on restrictions al
much as possible.
A year ago we said that "Fool
Would Win the War" Food has
won the war, and we should re.
member that there are $50, ,0OO,.
900 people who are compelled tt
look largely to America to pre-.
vent starvation during the com.
ing year. Under these con.
|ditions it is urgent that every
food administrator should use
every influence at his command
to see that there is no waste
whatsoever of anything which
can be used to fed the starving
world.
We desire to eliminate, as
far as possisble, all restrictions
but now appeal to the people Of
every parish in the state to d.
all that lies in their power tt
materially assist us in showing
that America desires to be the
friend Il the world and to set an
example of self-sacrifice and a
heartfelt desire to see peace,
happiness and prosperity re-
stored.
Please convey this message to
your people, and ask them to
cheerfully unite with us in elm
mating waste and doing all in
our power for suffering hui
manity.
Very truly yours,
JNO, M. PARKER.

beginning of the secoSd week of the
great battle, which opened with prob
ably the most colossal attack in his

western edge of the old So'nme bat
tlefield, while inflicting further
losses upon the enemy.
British counter attacks have be-
gun in the region of Albert, from
which the Germans have been unable
to advance because of the RESISTANCE
of the British, who dogge1ly re
nesday. South of Albert, Field Mar
shall Haig has carried out several
counter attacks and has advanced his
line eastward, between the Somme
and Ancre, about one mile South
of the Somme, the British have re-
gained Proyart, and have %repulsed
strong attacks at Rosieres.
Along the Ancre, north OF Albert,
the British threw the Germans back
across the river and drove them from
two towns between Albert and Mon
chy. On this front, the British also
have repulsed strong enemy efforts
at other points. =
On the southern flank, the French
have held the German advd zee west
of Noyon. At Laseigny, northwest
of Noyon, after heavy feighting. the
French have retired slightly toward
Montdidier, being overwhelmed by
superior numbers.
The notes of pessimism in the pub

MADE IN GERMANY"


Authentic information by the y. S.
food administration indicates a we'll
planned German propaganda intended
to magnify the distress Of the CEN
trail powers with respect to their
food supply. By painting conditions
worse than they actually are, the
enemy hopes to hull the American
mind into the belief that we are
fighting people on the verge OF
collapse and that early peace is
certain.
Such an attitude here in the United
States will delay preparations, defeat
food conservation and in countless
ways weaken our military and eco
nomic forces. The central powers
have control of thousands of square
miles Of productive lands in Poland,
Roumania, Serbia, Belgium and
France. Much of this is wheat land,
and such possessions added to home
resources make starvation through
blockade remote and futile hope.
Under her system of rationing Ger
many's cattle supply is ample for
several years.
The central powers can raise suffi-
Gent food for all needs if they are
obliged to do so. The chief value
Of the blockade is to compel diver
sion of energy from war industries to
agriculture. Food rationing is nee
essary conservation measure, but does
not signify early starvation. 1t is
further pointed out that local revolts
against restrictions imposed by au-
thorities will be suppressed by the
most drastic means.
Much Of the German propaganda in
the United States is SO plausible and
pictures conditions SO similar to what
we should like to believe that many
loyal Americans both in this country
and abroad have succumbed to its
charms and unknowingly have helpes
to spread it. Any report, cablegran
or letter portraying weakness of ths
central powers, especially purportine
to be inside information, bears the
earmarks Of German propaganda
Using every energy to prepare for
long war is the most effective mean
of bringing the struggle to an earl
end. Yours truly,
