EAT HOME GROWN FOODS.
Housewives Can Help Win War b.
Each Spoonful of Saving.

Wichita, Kan, Oct. 9.-The impor-
lance of eating home grown foods was
emphasized at the food administration
today by the receipt of statistics show
Ing it takes two tons of shipping to
provide for every man in France we
are supporting. This amount of ton
mage must be set aside continuously
until we cease supporting that man.
If a Kansas county seat of 1000
population buys two pounds of sugar
per person per month, that means the
town is using ocean transportation
sufficient to provide for one soldier
and in addition is using freight car
space sufficient to provide for one
soldier.
If the town ships in sugar, coffee,
cocoa, bananas, pineapples or other
food in quantities greater than abso-
lutte requirements, that town is vast
ing freight cars and ships.
The food administration requests
that every housewife save freight cars
and ships by the spoonful, by the
pound, by the crate and by the ton.
Every ounce of shipping and car space
saved means additional space which
will go to the support of a soldier.
The use of Kansas grown apples.
Kansas grown sorghum and other
Kansas foods is urged as a patriotic
duty.

Splendid Patriotic Feeling Is Devel-
Oped Thruout Kansas.

While Pershing's boys are singing
Americas thrilling war songs in camp
and battle, the home folks in Kansas
fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters of

NO NEED TO BECOME PANICKY.
Farmers VIII Be Able to Sell Wheat
Mt Government Price

Wichita, Kan, Oct 9.-Altho ship
ment of wheat to seaboard has beer
temporarily checked there is no occa-
sion for farmers to become panicky
and sell wheat at less than the gov
eminent guaranteed price of $2.1S ba-
sis Of Kansas City. according to a tel
egram received today from United
States Food Administrator Hoover by
Federal Food Administrator Innes OF
Kansas.
The telegram states that the recent
allied victories have resulted in a diver
sion of shipping at the request of Gen
eral Pershing, who needs certain ma
terfals for his own and the allied
armies in consolidating positions and
making improvements in the con-
quered territory. The diversion OF
ships is temporary.
Mr.. Hoover advises that If produc-
ers will wait all wheat will be moved
and the full price will be paid every
grower.

and alcohol sufficient to preserve and
keep in solution.
Every ingredient is in concentrated
form and the medicine is SO strong
that only ten-drop doses are to be
taken in the raw state. But the
ideal way is to make into syrup by
emptying a 21a OF. bottle of Mentho-
Laxene into a pint bottle and then fill
the bottle with granulated sugar
syrup, made by dissolving a pint of
sugar in a half pint of boiling water
1t is said by thousands that this makes

MAKE GOOD THE SHE'LL Loss
Kansas Must Contribute Labor to on
set Recent Catastrophe.

With Americas biggest shell load
ing plant gone, the only way to make
good the loss of shells is to fill imme-
diately the shortage of labor in muni-
ton plants still existing. The present
shortage of unskilled labor in these
plants is $4,000.
This is the message sent TO the Kan
sas council of defense by Nathan A.
Smythe, assistant director general of
the United States employment service
The filling of the quota will tax the
utmost effort of every state. Mr..
Smythe points out, and can be ac-
complished only by supplying men
from non-essential industries and by
rep1a cling men with women.
The element of risk in shell load
ing plants" he comments, will deter
no real, man or woman. Americans
are not afraid either in the trenches
or a posts of danger at home"
