The Game Problem.

Yes there Is way to abolish the
state game commission and at the
sa me time conserve the supply of
game in Missouri. Just enact law
to the effect that it will be a felony
to hunt with anything except a
muzzle loader or a breach loader
which fires only one shot. Enforce
this sort of a law and the game
problem will be solved. The hunt
er will have just as much sport and
the birds will have some chance.
AS matters now stand. hunter
with pump gun can exterminate
whole fiocks of quail in a day. He
does not 90 out for sport, as hunters
us ed to do, but to slaughter for the
m ere sake of filling a bag. Any
body who has hunted with muzzle
10 ader will testify that he had more
fun when he worked all day for six
or eight birds than he now gets out
of pottiDe six or eight coveys in a
day. He will testify that birds were
a lways plentiful in those days
Also that many pests which now
pr owe costly to the farmer were un.
K nown when Bob White, that good
friend of the farmer. was spared to
prey upon them. Enact the muzzle
loader law. 1t will solve the game
pro blem without interfering with
a nybody's sport.

Time For Hot Bed

1t is now time to start the hotbeds
for early plants. Pick out a piece
on the south side of the fence or
building where the ground is well
drained. Dig hole eighteen inches
deep, six feet wide and twelve feet
long. Board it up allaround, having
the south side six or eight inches
above the ground and the north side
of the frame at least six inches
higher than the south. Put some
chunks of wood, brickbats and the
like in the bottom to insure drainage
and then put in some eight to twelve
inches of fermenting manure. On
topsput six inches of good garden
soil. Cover the bed either with a
glass sash or heavy canvas and
when it has cooled down to about
80 degrees the seeds can be planted.
The temperature may be determined
by sticking thermometer into the
soil some six inches A hotbed is
one of the great essentials for an

AS a war measure and direct
result of the general shortage of

Save More Wheat

The food situation is once more
brought sharply to the front by the
proclamation of President Wilson,
issued Saturday. calling for so per
cent less consumption Of wheat
and wheat products this year than
in 1917, and for further saving of
beef, pork and sheep products. and
continued economy in the use of
sugar. Wheat. however. is the
main article to which attention is
directed.
7 Lord Rhondda, British Food
administrators, speaking for his own.
tie French and Italian Govern
ments, has notified Herbert Hoover
that unless the United States can
supply 100000 bushels of wheat
to the European Allies in the next
live months. they cannot be expect
ID to do the work that is required
4 them in the war. In other words.
they cannot fight our battles effect
ively while we are getting ready.
The only way in which this
, amount of wheat can be saved for
export between now and the begin
ming Of the next harvest is to cut
our consumption at least 80 per
cent. The President has pointed
out how this can be done. Briefly.
it means war bread, with a gradual
ly increasing percentage of substi-
tntes for wheat flour: it means two
Wheatless days a week and one
wheatless meal each day.
Full particulars as to how the
saving is to be effected are furnish
ed in a statement given out by the
food administration. and while all
the authority vested in the President
by Congress- viii be employed to in
sure the enforcement of the new
regulations. it is expressly stated
that the effectiveness of these
rules isssdependent solely upon the
good will and willingness of the
American people to sacrifice. We
have but one police force, the
American woman, and we depend
upon her"
This puts it up to the American
housewife. 100000 of whom have
already signed the Hoover pledge,
and it now is in order for the Other
8O00,O00'sto do likewise. The
women have brought about a
tremendous saving of foodstuffs
This has been done without any
actual deprivation or loss of nation
al effectiveness. If anything. the
public health is better than before

Send No Food

The Missouri Council of Defense
has just received the following reso-
lu ton adopted by the Council of
National Defense requesting that the
people of the Country in the interest
of food conservation stop sending
food to the soldiers and sailors in
the camps and cantonments:
The Council of National Defense
desires to inform the people of the
C country that abundant food is sup.
piled to the soldiers and sailors in
t he camps and cantonments, and
t hat the sending of food to the men
by their friends and families is not
in any respect necessary; that the
aggregate quantity of food thus
privately sent is enormous, and that
much of it. having been conveyed
long distances in heated express OF
mail cars, is more or less spoiled
and consequently injurious to the
health of the men. Therefore, in
the interest of the conservation ol
food, and also the health of the men
the Council of National Defense re-
quests the public to discontinue the
sending of food stuffs to the camps.
