OATMEAL AS FOOD.
Humanity Awakening to It's Desirable
Qualities

DR.. johnson s famous gibe that "oat-
meal is food used for humans in Scot
land and for horses elsewhere will
soon be entirely out of date, for the
war and the food conservation move
ment help to bring oats into its own
again as a good for human beings
Oatmeal has sever gone out Of fash
ion as a breakfast DISH and today old
recipes for oat cakes, oat biscuit and
scenes are being resurrected from cook
books of a generation ago.
We may eat oats without feeling that
we are violating food pledges. We
raise from 1000, 000,0 900 to 800, zoo, 900
bushels of oats in the United States ev-
cry year and thore should be enough to
go around. Moreover, oats is more nu-
tritious than wheat. Oatmeal contains
l,oO0 ealories per pound, as against
l,670 calories in pound of whole
wheat -four
The farmers say that they are going
to be short of labor next spring, not
only because of the drafting of men for
our armies, but also because high wages
are Turing hundreds of thousands of
workers into munition plants, shipyards
and other industrial lines.
The seriousness of the situation must
not BE- minimized. The weeks and
months fly past in these times Of war
and stress, and before the country re-
allies what has happened spring will
have come, and our opportunity for a
bumper production of food crops will
have pas,ad. 1t will avail US nothing
TO raise millions of men or billions of
dollars if next years harvest does not
produce food enough for ourselves and
our allies for the winter of l91S-l9l9.

OF LILLE
IN DEMONSTRATION
French City, Long In Hur

News of Delverauce.
BY GEORGE r. BYE,
Special Correspondent Of The Sioux

City Tribune.
American Press Headquarters. Brit
ish Front (by ma:l)-The fifth city OF
France. Lille, freed Of its German OPP
pressor, held Il celebration in the abb
sence OF its deliverers, the British, who
were still several miles beyond its
limits.
The quarter of a million inhabitants
paraded the city Is abreast singing and
shouting. They fired Roman candles
oesplte all War laws against showing
lights. A%ccordeons were played in the
squares with thousands joining in gay
songs.
Every house he'd a French flag out
side and the principal buildings dis
played the British Union Jack.
The city did not know it was re-
turned to France until about 2 p. m,
when Lowell Meliett, OF the United
Press and myself brought the news.
The people had noticed the dwindling
German garrison but did not suspect
that deltverance was at hand until they
were awakened by two great explosions
at 8 a. m. The enemy had blown up
the two main bridges into the city.
We were made h center OF a parade
through the city in which thousands
marched and danced. At times our
progress was blocked by vast crowds
at street corners. insistent on shaking
our hands and kissing us. In addition
tc being kissed by men, women. girls
and boys we must have kissed more
h 100 babies.
"Unworthy Girls"
The gaily riotous procession went up
the Rue des Postes with only one un-
pleasant incident. Some girls who had
been clinging to our arms and holding
up the tails Of our uniforms were sud-
who said they had been friendly to
German soldiers and were unworthy to
be near us.
We were led to the council hall,
where champagne WIS opened and
toasts drunk to Britain, France and
men between the ages Of Is and 60
had been deported about October l..
These did not include the thousands
Of boys and girls taken away in 1916.
The rest of the population was COM

Others ran the street Ger lines and
city utilities, which were kept in opera
ton until a week ago. 1t was a case of
work or starve.
All machinery in the prosperous wool
n cotton spinning mills and iron
sme.ters, in which industries Lille was
the chief city of France. had been
removed to Germany and the factory
buildings damaged. Food a been
very costly.
The Germans had partly convinced
many of the people ,hat America was
a failure IN the war and that the
greater part of the American expedi-
tionary force was already captured.
The English, they had said. had driven
the French out of northern france and
would occupy it permanently. Except
ing it's suburbs, Lille is got at al,

The Rat Plague.

The rat population of the United
States is estimated by a competent
authority to be almost twice as great
as the human population. Its demands
are so insistent and voracious as to
consume approximately the entire
economic output of two hundred thous-
and men. Unless the people of the
United States rouse themselves and
take vigorous measure, the rat popula-
ton will increase in even greater ratio
and will have an increasingly larger
number of men working to support it.
The thought of such an Army of human
beings toiling for the benefit Of rats
is revolving.
There is almost nothing of value 10
man that rat will not destroy. More
over, so long as rats exist in large
numbers the bubonic plague is ever
imminent, and they must at least bear
the suspicion of being active dis
seminators of diptheria, typhoid fever,
scarlet fever and infantile paralysis.
The idea that keeping cat will keep
away rats is delusive. A cat will &C.
casionally catch rat, but rat fecundity
and rat cleverness will battle the eff
forts of the best ratter that ever lived.
Trapping, poisoning, fumigating, rat
proofing-all the known methods OF
destroying the vermin will have to be
employed more literally than they now
are if a serious menace to health and
property is to be abated. Anyone on
whose premises there are rats should
write to the Biological Survey, Depart
ment of Agriculture, Washington, for
bulletin telling how to destroy the pest.
