meals also.
Certain reports and recommended

gram in Idaho were transmitted to
Mr.. Hoover and it is quite probable
that shortly amended regulations may

liar conditions in this state.
Beyond doubt at any rate. we wiI8
be asked to make a large additional
saving in wheat possibly to the ex-
tent of eliminating it entirely for the
next 90 days One of the most WONDER
full patriotic responses ever heard of
III this country was that of the hotel
men in Washington last week. who
at the suggestion of Mr. Hoover un-
anlmously decided to eliminate wheat
and wheat products absolutely from
their menus till September first. And
they did this even without any plan as
TO how 1t could be done or any idea
as to any substitute which could prop
erly take the place of wheat flour as
q binder for their breads and pastries
From April 18th TO September first
there VIII not be an ounce of wheat
/ flour or any other wheat product used
in any one of the leading hotels in
the United States for any purpose
/ whatever. How this may be done is
left to each one of the hotels to work
out. 1t is absolutely necessary that
everyone who can possibly eliminate
the use of wheat and wheat products
/ from now until harvest or until the
present situation is relieved, do so.
How many of the people of Power
county are there who after earnest
consideration will say that they can
and will make this sacrifice? II
so or 100 will come out and take this
stand their action will result in an
incalculable saving not only in the
actual amount they themselves will
save, but in the effect their stand wilR
have upon all others. by showing the
actual necessity for sacrifice. Ana
the effect will reach much further than
the boundaries of Power county.
If some in Power county are going
without any wheat whatever, no 9TH
; er housewife will use a single cup of
wheat flour without first earnestly
asking herself if its use can in any
way be avoided
There are possibly many who by
reason of the pampered tastes of their
men-folks. the large numbers they
feed, or their lack of culinary inven-
/ tiveness, will not be able to cut out
the wheat entirely; but this is a time
for them to prayerfully consider the
) relative necessity of every single spoon
full of wheat flour they use.

Forrest G. Paine. a member of A
Company, 146th Machine Gun Bat
talon. who was stationed in Ameri-
can Falls last summer as one of the
Second Idaho bridge guards, writes
to John Bristol as follows:
Somewhere in France. My Dear
John-We arrived all o. X. and en-
ioyed a fine trip and as good luck
would have it l did not get a bit sick,
but thought several times that l might.
We are training in the flower gar
den of France and the weather is sure
ly ideal. OF course, it is still winter
here as in the United States writing
this February 4th), but the nights only
are cold; the days are nice and warm,
and it surely is sunny France. The
sun has shown every day but one. The
customs here are very queer, but
every one seems TO be content-and
that is a whole lot in this old world.

ACCIDENT OR NATURAL DEATHl
Cause OF Death OF Martin Shultz. Aged
German Baptist Minister Is in
Doubt.

Martin Shultz. a German Baptist
minister living about four miles north
of the Pleasant Valley church. died
Monday morning. possibly a natural
death, and possibly as the result of
fall from wagon The body. which
is at the Hager undertaking parlors
shows no marks other than a bruise
on the head, such as might be caused
by fall from a wagon. No bones
are broken, and the injury does not
appear to be sufficient to cause death.
Whether the summons came to the
aged man while he was in the wagon,
causing him to fall. or whether the
fall caused death, is a matter of doubt
in the mind of Mr.. Hager.
The cause of death was reported to
be from injuries sustained in a run
away. But inasmuch as the team was
found within 200 feet of the body. and
nothing to indicate a runaway, seems
to discredit this theory. 1t is more
likely, Mr.. Hager believes, that the
aged man fell while getting into the
wagon, or that death came naturally,
causing the body to fall. The deceas-
ed leaves a wife and son. and a>step-
son, Adolf Haak Funeral arrange
ments have not been completed.
