dustries in Harrisburg, having been
In business over half a century, gave
its annual vacation to employees the
first week in July, preceded by a
company picnic at Hershey Park,
saturday, June 29.
The committee of arrangements
had planned a fine program of games
and sports in which many of the en-
ployes and members of their fami-
lies took part. In the morning there
was ball game between the mar
rled and single men in which the
married men won, the score being Z
to 2. There was also a ball throw
ing contest for the girls which was
won by Miss Reba Nipple.
After lunch the games were re-
sumed with the following results:
Ladies 100-yard race, Julia Bolan.
boys shoe race, first, j. Smith; sec
ond, Harvey Tebbitts. Ladies' So
yard race, Martha Waltermyer. Boys

had the plant been working.

talk about sacrifice when all they
are asked to do is keep from eat

BEWARE

| Able bodied loafers are under
the ban. War time necessity
makes them useless drug on the
market, as well as a drain on the
resources of the country, which
lat this time cannot be tolerated.
Major John d. Yost Recruiting
IOfficer for the Minnesota District
inaugurated an enlist or work"
campaign in several Minnesota
towns recently with such marked
results that he is anxious to make
the movement sta tewi d e.
Through the newspapers of the
state Major Yost requests the co
operation of all municipal and
county authorities, as we'll as Re-
cruiting Committees in pushing
this campaign.
Figures compiled show that
there are at least $4,000 men in
the State outside the draft age
who are available for military
service, and who are not engaged
in any line Of work. Uncle Sam
can use such men, us in need of
them in fact, and can teach them
all useful occupation. Idle men
are trouble breeders, and the best
place for such men at the present
time is in the army where they
will be kept too busy to think of
trouble.
The New York State Legisla-
tive Assembly, as well as the Leg
stature of the State of Maryland
have enacted laws on the above
plan that are already operative,
Municipal officers have welcomed
the opportunity to rid their towns
Of loafers, and it is expected Min
nesota officers will also go after
them with a vengeance.
The needs of the army are con-
slant and ever increasing, so
every known means of securing
men must be resorted to. Secre-
tary of War Baker favors increas-
ing the draft age limit to 40 years,
and prospects are excellent that |
his suggestion will be followed by !

The U. S. Army Corps is now
open for enlistment. Lieutenant |

branch Of service has an office at !

of sheep in northern Minnesota.
For years foresters have recog-
nized the value of sheep In con-
neetion with forestry, not only as
a means of eliminating the accu-
mutation of grass, weed and
brush in the woods, but also be-
cause of their presence insuring
the suppression of fires by settlers
themselves, who do not want to
see their stock burned up. AS a
matter of fact, sheep raising is
very often encouraged in portions
of the National Forests ana in
forests Of the older countries as
means of bringing about refores-
tration through natural agencies.
They prepare the ground for the
seed and actually tramp it in, so
that excellent stands of young
timber often follow sheep graz
ing; and, as you know, sheep do
not care to eat the little confer
Gus trees.
You and the Northern Mime
sofa Sheep Growers association
cannot get too many sheep into
northern and north central Min
nesota during the next ten years ;

to encourage stock raising, as
well as the clearing of agricul-
tural land in the forest regions Of

FOOD |||l||) FACT

America has the task of feed
ing her own people, also the peo-
pie of the allied nations while the
people of number of neutral ma
tions must also be saved from
starvation. If this task is to be
accomplished it means our max
mum effort in two particulars,
conservation-proper use of the
food we have, and greater produc-
ton of the things that will assist
most In providing proper food.
What vt is possible to save is
limited by our absolute physical
needs. sstkaf~
What it is possible to produce
is limited only by our energy and
our ambition to be of assistance
IN the work of feeding the world
Right now our energies should
be devoted to increased produc-
ton. Making two blades grow
where one grew before is patrio.
tic service of the first order. And
making two blades grow here
now will be of very material as
slstance in feeding and maintain
ing the men who are bearing the
blades and the guns in France
and lighting our fight for liberty
Till the soil. Add something
to the worlds food supply.
The effect of war gardens in
providing food, saving labor and
relieving the railroads cannot be
overestimated. Three of the i'm
portant factors in this war are
food, labor and transportation
The war garden helps solve all
three. DR.. Alonzo E. Taylor of |
the national food administration,
speaking from accurate knowl.
edge declares: "It is no exag-
geration to say that the war gar
dens in Europe have in the case
OF Germany, for instance, pulled
her through two summers and
that she probably would not have
been able to pull through if it |
had not been for her war gardens. |
In the largest cities of Germany, |
as much as 25 to 80 percent of |
the food consumption of these
people during those months was
fresh vegetables, largely reliev-
ing the cereal situation"
The food administration is max
ing every endeavor to see that the
country is provided with a sup
ply OF household sugar on the
basis of three pounds of sugar
for each person per month, and
is asking that the people do not
consume more. Saving from this
supply enough for use during the
approaching canning season is
not regarded as boarding.
1t rs also the intention of the
food administration to supple
ment the three pound per month
allotment during the canning sea
son with an additional amount |
that will be ample for necessary
canning operations. The full
utilization of all methods which
will save sugar, is however.
strongly advised. Such methods
include putting up fruits in their
natural juices, the use of syrups,
drying and the storage of fruits
and vegetables in pits and cellars.
Canning fruits, vegetables and
perlshable products of all kinds
for family use during the months i
of little or no production is not
boarding and such products will
not be seized or taxed nor will
the amount be limited.
