SUNDAY A SPRING DAY

Sunday was as mild as a spring day
in March and the snow melted very
rapidly. Our sidewalks were just a
mass of slush and water. The catch
basins at the corners were, in most
cases frozen up and water accumulat-
ed at the various corners so as to
make it necessary to travel in the
middle of the street, to avoid wading
through puddles foot or more deep.
AS our old citizen, Job Vaughan said,
as he scanned the sky, and blew out
a puff of smoke: "This is fine hay
weather" 1t surely was a perfect
day overhead, and delightfully."- spring
like and warm, but sloppy and dis
agreeable under foot.

About Constipation

Certain articles of diet tend to check
movements of the bowels. The most
common of these are cheese, tea and
boiled milk. On the other hand raw
fruits, especially apples and bananas,
also graham bread and whole wheat
bread promote movement of the
bowels When the bowels are badly

under pre-war conditions.
do not care whether this re-
fers to the farmer, to the iaborer,
to the manufacturer, to the mid

cent taken beyond this standard
is money extracted from the
blood and sacrifice OF the Amer.

Extortionate profits are not
necessary to secure the maxi
mum effort on the part of the
American people in this war. II
we are going to adopt that the
ory, we have admitted every
thing that has been charged
against us Of being the most ma
terialistic. the most avaricious,
and the most venal of people In
this world.
II we are going to admit that
the government. in order to Sc
cure the supreme effort OF its
citizens In production. must
bribe them with money to this
exertion, we have admitted a
weakness Of American character,
OF American civilization and OF

SAVECANNED GOODS
FOR use IN WINTER
SAYS FOOD OFFICIAL

TT 10 not patriotic 1t this time to
use canned goods, which make up the
nations food reserve, when there ID,
all over the state. = great, immediate
supply Of fresh green vegetables.
Such IL the latest stand taken BY
the U. 8. Food Administration against
the thoughtless opening Of canned
goods when fresh vegetables are on
the market In such abundance. With
the safety and stability of Americas
food supply more or less dependent
upon the reserve supply Of canned
goods. every tin that Is opened unnec-
essarily during the green produce sea-
son Is lessening the amount of food
with which the United States is plan
ming to feed her soldiers during the
coming winter.
The food supply is not the only rea-
son given by the Food Administration
for restraining from using canned food
at this time of the year. Perhaps the
more serious angle is the fact that the
tin shortage is becoming rapidly acute,
and unless the supply is shortly en-
HANGED, there will not be sufficient tin
containers to preserve the enormous
crops expected this season. Because of
this. it is necessary that every house
wife, hotel manager and consumer
realize the need of practicing the ut
most economy where the use of timed
foods Is concerned.

SECRERARY McADOO ON SAVING

II want you to think of this situa.
tion for the moment as one big gen.
eral store, with Uncle Sam as proprie-
tor. Uncle Sam has got to see that
his own people are fed and taken care
Of; he has got to see, in addition. that
the 100000 men, perhaps 100000
men. whom we are going to put into
the field are fed and clothed and
equipped with the things that are
necessary to enable them to become
trained soldiers. These men will be
taken out Of the fields of productive
enterprise. They will be for the time
they are in the war idle men from an
economic standpoint They have got
to be fed and clothed and equipped.
That means an enormous drain upon
the general store that We have not
heretofore had, and unless we econo-
mize and prevent waste 1t Is very
serious question whether we shall be
able to produce enough to meet all Of
our demands and the demands of the
rest Of the world. Everything that We
save is going to release that much In
the general store for the support OF
our own armies and the armies Of
Europe"

SUGAR SHORTAGE
MAKES ECONOMY
A VITAL ISSUE

"The rationing of sugar for manu-
featuring purposes will continue, so
far as We can see, throughout the
war;" declared j. N. Bundick. chair
man of the Food Administration Su-
gar division for Colorado" and 1t is
absolutely necessary that all manufac-
turers using sugar for the less essen
tial-food products, practice the strict
est economy during the coming
months"
The sugar situation in the United
States is far from encouraging, accord
ing to officials. owing to lowering Of
the sugar beet acreage in this coun-
try, and the lack of transportation ia
cilities by which sugar could be
brought from Cuba and the Islands.
Present indications are that the
1919 sugar allowance will be consider
ably lower than that of 1918, and we
would most strongly advise sugar US
ers to go as easy on their present sup
plies as possible" this from Chairman
Bundick,

DAIRYMEN ARE URGED
To KEEP THEIR HERDS

"The child life of the world may
some day depend entirely upon the
dairy herd Of America, and the duty
of every dairyman is to stand by, with
that courage that comes from the
knowledge that he 10 a part Of the
worlds reserve army that may at any
moment be called into battle for our
existence and the existence Of the
next generation"
With these stirring words, Herbert
Hoover stood before representative
dairymen Of America and urged them
not to let the high cost of meat, the
price OF feed and the increased cost
of labor influence them to sell for beef
the dairy cows that are so vital to the
welfare of the nation.
The U. s. Food Administration feels
the necessity Of encouraging the use
of dairy products SO that dairymen
will in no instances be tempted t. re-
linquish their herds.
Milk Is one of the cheapest and
most nourishing foods that can be OBJ
tained," announced Robert ]. Grant,
executive manager of the Colorado ad-
ministration." It Is easily prepared
into the most palatable dishes. and
loyal Coloradoans should increase
their consumption as greatly as possi-
Bile and save meat and wheat for ship
ment overseas"

WHY YOU SHOULD BUY THEM

The main reason for the purchase
OF War Savings Stamps is because
your country IL at war. Your country
needs every penny which every man,
woman and child can save and lend
IN order to feed. clothc. arm. and
equip the soldiers and sailors of
America and to win this righteous war
In defense Of American honor and the
cause of democracy throughout the
world
II we are to win the war, we must
win It as united people. The savings
OF every man. woman. and child are
necessary II we are to hasten the vic.
torious ending Of the war. War Savers
are Life Savers.

ITO acquire the habit Of frugality,
as the French have 1t, as the Japanese
have 1t. as all the deep, wise old nd.
tions have 1t, is to show that we have
acquired wisdom, refinement. modera.
tion and good taste in the art Of life.
To live in that restraint is to live in
that common sense. In that decency.
in that regard for others and In that
consideration for the future Of our
own independence. To live with fru.
gality means to live with 4 due sense
Of the relative values OF things. Il
means that we have come to perceive
that life Ii more than food and the
body than raiment; 1t means spiritual
strength and poise."

Get New Kidneys

The Kidneys are the most overworked
organs of the human body and when they
fail in their work of filtering out and
throwing off the poisons developed in the
system, things begir TO happen.
One of the first warnings is pain or stiff
ness in the lower part of the back: highly
colored urine; loss of Appetite; indiges-
ton; irritation. or even stone in the blad-
der. These symptoms indicate a condition
that may lead TO that dreaded and fatal
malady. Bright's disease, for which there
is said to be no cure.
Do not delay a minute. At the first in.
dication of trouble in the kidney, liver,
bladder or urinary organs start taking

was yearning TO do already? For in

man to eat, or a thirsty man to drink,

Who would think of bribing a farmer
to dress his own vineyard, or to dig

Get Complete Family Record.

Sugar records now being kept in
grocery stores are causing some per-
turbatiOn on the part of grocery men.
Since the food administration linn
tied the amount of sugar a family
can use per month, the grocers have
had to keep track of the amount sold
10 each customer.
For this purpose they use a sort of
book, or ledger, in which the Gus
toner's name and address, and other
information pertaining thereto, are
recorded
Since most of the purchasers are
women, it can be imagined that the
grocers' task, sometimes. is not so
easy. but the women, realizing that
the information must be given, have
gracefully accorded it.
Nor is that all.
Grocers do tell that they get more
Information than they have any need
for Here's how it is:
"They insist on telling me all about
little, Johnny, and what little Susie
Is doing today, and-why, say, since
we started this here sugar record. we
know the complete family history of
all our customers"
Now what do you know about that?
