February lltn, 1913.
TO ALL COUNTY FOOD ADMINS
TRAITORS:
The most important matter before
you at the present time is to empha-
size with your citizens the necessity OF
using as little wheat as possible and
of conserving the existing, supply OF
wheat flour. In view. of the emergen-
cies of the national, crisis all your
dealers must be impressed with the
urgency of this. matter and they
should be cautioned to scrutinize
carefully. all sale orders to see that
no sales of flour are permitted unless
at the same time an equivalent in sub
stitutes is included in the order.
The substitutes are hominy.' corn
grits, corn meal. corn flour. edible
corn starch, 'emmer flour. barley flour.
rolled oats. oat meal. rice. rice flour.
bean meal and feterita flour and meal:
During the month of February rye
flour may be used as substitute but
not thereafter.
Articles not listed above are not
substitutes. Please observe this lini-
tation strictly.
The sugar situation is also becom-
ing more insistent SO be sure TO watch
carefully all suagr transactions in
yonr county.
= Circulars are being forwarded TO you
today that cover all the important
points in the food conservation pro-
gram. You may have extra copies ii
you need them but we have supplied
bakers. hotelss retail stores and whole
salers directly from this office.
Reports are favorable as to compli-
ance with the regulations as soon as
they become understood. You can
therefore be of great service to the
cause by instructing all people in your
county as to. the requirements and by
insisting upon strict enforcement and
observance of the rules by everybody
alike without fear OF favor.
The President has asked us to cut
our consumption of wheat by one
third. Let.the people. of Colorado re-
spond by cutting it one-half We must
fill the stomachs of the fighting men
abroad and we must sustain their
families or our cause is lost. AS
things now stand whoever eats more
wheat flour than his allowance is a
PROFITEER and whoever boards war
necessities is a traitor. The most we
can do is as nothing compared with
the sacrifices that are to be found in
every home in England and France.
Very truly yours.
THOS. B. STEARNS.
Federal Food Administrator for

Mrs. George Sinden
Died Sunday Night

Mrs. George Sinden of 614 North
Fifteenth street died at Dr. Graves
hospital between eight and nine
O'Clock Sunday night from pelvic cell
lul:tis. She had been undergoing
treatment in the hospital for little
more than a week but had been in
failing health for a somewhat longer
period. Her malady at first baffled
diagnosis and did not yield to treat
ment of the attending physicians. al
tho everything was done for her that
science and medical skill could sug-
gest. Twice during her illness DR.. F.
N. Cochems of Salida. was called here
for consultation in relation to her
case: first on Wednesday of last
week and again on the day of her
DEATH He was unable to add any
thing to what had already been done
by the hospital staff.--
Mrs. Sinden had for a number of
years been very active in the religious
social and intellectual life OF the COM
munity and the announcement of her
death was a great shock to those who
knew her. She was prominent in. the
work and benevoiences of the First
Presbyterian church: especially In the
enterprises Of its missionary society.
of which she was leader. In addi-
tion to her church connections Mrs.
Sinden was member Of the board
of education, a member of the Friends
in Council and other organizations
dedicated to the religious, intellectual
and social uplift of those about her.
She was public-spirited to an unusual
degree and was deeply concerned in
everything having for its purpose the
roundings. AS member of the board
of education she was always keenly
alive to the best interests of the Canon
City public schools and their efficien.
cy is due in no small measure to her
intelligent cooperation in matters
concerning them. Socially. Mrs. Sim
den was highly esteemed by those who
knew her best and she had host Of
warm personal friends who sincerely
regret her untimely death.
Besides the husband. there is left
to mourn her memory. family OF four
sons. They are Roger H. and Alfred
d. Sinden, students at Colorado col
lege. and James and John Sinden. who
are at home. Her parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Delos Hull. residents of this city.
are spending the winter at st. Peters
burg. Florida. They .have been ap-
prised by telegraph of their daugh-
ter's death and are expected to arrive
here on Thursday. The two eldest
sons arrived here from Colorado
Springs by automobile, Sunday even
ing. about two hours before their
mothers death, and were with her
when the end came.
No arrangements have been an
nounced for the funeral. which will
probably not take place before Thurs
day afternoon or Frisay. An aunt of
the deceased. residing in Chicago, is
expected here for the obsequies. Mr..
and Mrs. Sinden and family came to
Canon City to live. some eight or nine
years ago from Oak Park, ILL.,, a su.

 WHEAT ID MARKETS

According to the latest available crop reports issued by the United States department of agriculture, the wheat acreage in this country is some- thing over 26 per cent In excess of last years acreage. And while it is m- possible to say exactly what the yield Will total, 1t is estimated that approx imately S0,000,000 bushels more that the average for the past five years will be harvested. It is evident that the transportation of this enormous crop, in addition to the tremendous war trans portation requirements, will throw an incidentally heavy strain on the rail- roads during the approaching fall and winter says MT. Ferguson of the Fer- guson- -Keeler company, local Oldsmo- bile dealers.
 "Of course the governments action in raising passenger rates and curtail- ing baggage privileges has automatic ally restricted railroad travel to a very considerable extent. But that isn't enough-not by half-it is up to every man and woman who travels to use the railroads just as little as is absolutely essential
 Travelling men. particularly, can do IHuCl to HeIp. l hDOW or QOZe1S or men who have simply motorized their routes and quit using the railroads altogether. In cases where the territory covered is not too widely scattered this method not only saves time but actually keeps down the expense account. In some cases, travelling men to whom we have sold cars say that they surely will con- tinue to use them in their work even should after the-war- conditions result in normal rail rates.
 Another way in which steam power is being conserved and can be con- served to greater extent is by substi- tuting the automobile for the occasional business trip or family tour. While the motor car usually provides the mode of tarvel, there may be times when its use will require some little sacrifice of time or convenience. But sacrifice is the spirit of the day and the national need so great that nobody can afford to overlook any chance to render indirect service"

MINIATURE SHOW OF
 REOS |S MADE HERE

They are. having something very much like a miniature Rec auto show up at the Leach Motor company's place on North Central these days, for an exceptionally fine and complete line of these standard machines are being shown. On the floor are two Rec siXes, one a roadster and one a seven pas senger model: Rec speed wagon, de- signed for light delivery. and Rec en- closed delivery truck as well as a big two-ton machine.
 Manager Pinkerton is rejoicing these days that he is representing a factory which fully realizes the importance of repair parts. The Rec people are spe- cializing in having on hand and quick ly speeding repair parts to their deal CTS, and this is big thing for the man who must keep his car out of commits sion until some needed factory part comes.
 T don't believe we have ever had any back orders from the factory for parts" said Manager Pnkerton. They simply are the best people I have ever worked with in this respect, and it means a lot both to the owner and dealer to have needed parts on tap when they are wanted"

War Industries Board Has
 Neither Declared Autos
 As Non-Essential Nor Ordered Making to Stop

The War Industrial board has not classed the automobile as a non- -essen- tial
 Nor has it given out any specific or der that the building of passenger cars must cease in this country.
 These two statements come from Charles $. Groves, the Washingt ton cor respondent of the Boston Globe, who Keeps in touch with everything of news interest that goes on there.
 But there will be curtailment of the production of cars. Everyone in 'the in- dustry expects that. To stop the build ing of motor cars entirely would wreck many dealers throughout the country, and this would mean serious financial loss in real estate. in banking circles and among depositors.
 These facts were all brought out at the hearing Friday by the committee from Boston, and men from other parts Of the country who went to Washing ton for the purpose of telling their story President J. H. MacAlman, John H. Johnson and George B. Kim ball represented the Boston Automo- bile Dealers Association.
 MT. MacAlman and Mr. Johnson told about what the industry represented Tn ANCN lSlS ldllu lllIOuSIl tue uGdleT CT ganizations. and MT. Kimball presented facts about the big contributions tc- ward the success of the Liberty Loan through the medium of the motor or ganizations and individuals.
 The position of the War Industries ; Board" said Mir. Ferguson of the local Oldsmobile dealers, in comment on the above, lis to sift out every fact and then determine what is necessary to win the war The problem is to do this without killing business or wreck ing industries"
 But in the process of choosing it is not possible to let everything run along to lOO per cent production. The auto mobile board is very much in the same position as general in battle. He mus; win, and to win means casualties. So it must be in industry. There must be sacrifices. And it is upon this 1 theory that the motor dealers are n1l- ming their hopes. They have organized | their forces to co-operate with the eoY. ernment in every way.
 If it is a question of making shell. i and other Ammunition of turnins l out oil stoves steam radiators. automo- ! piles, etc. why the ammunition mus have preference. Every one admits that. because we can get along for ; while without the other necessities. | It is felt. however. that the motor in. | dustry IS so enormous that with it's 55t factories there are not eno~oh con. tracts in the country to give them wa work and keep the forces from bein. disorganized Already the motor plant. have some s90O,OOO,O0O worth of Wa l contracts.
 While this plan would be all right fo the factories, it would not be possibl, for motor dealers to go on 100 per cen
 war work. And with 25.000 dealers il this country, every one with some sor
 of sales force and service departments a sudden change would wreck them. l And wrecks streWn along the shore of industry will handicap the war S1or from top to bottom, according to tn,

GOODYEAR EMPLOYES
 50,000 STRONG TRY
 STRENGTH IN FIELD

On Labor Day Goodyear Tire and Rubber company employees and their friends, 50,OOO strong attended the third annual field meet and family picnic. at the company.s 40-acre athletic field known as Seiberling Park at Akron Ohio, and enjoyed an old time sport carnival, throughout the entire day embracing every conceivable kind of athletic contest.
 Goodyear Workmen, who in these strenuous days of necessitated produc- tion of war materials. are eXpending their energies toward getting out every possible pound of product, showed in their general njoyment of the big event that they could employ the same energy in having a good time. that they have been using in speeding production of materials for Uncle Sam's soldiers.
 With the experience of two previous years as a guide, practically perfect or ganiZation was achieved. and every event was run off exactly on scheduled time-a feature which-greatly appealed to the throngs of onlookers who blanketed the bleachers and hillsides bordering the field. and taxed the ca pacity of the gigantic grandstand. From a. m. until 10 D. m. there was some thing doing every minute.
 There were contests of every style and description, for the ladies as well as for the men. Quoits. tennis, bait casting, baseball throwing, obstacle races, nail driving. cock fights, egg races, hurdles, jumps of all kinds, shot puts, sack races, relay races, dashes of all lengths boxing. wrestling. javelin throwing, discus throwing, tugs of war, dancing and other special features were some of the events which enter tained the throngs throughout the day Following the athletic events, at the close of the day a big community sing was held assisted by the Goodyeaf band. Dancing at the pavilion closed the festivities of the day.

F|RESTONE GIANTS :. SET FINE RECORDS

Run for 12,000 miles and with more than an inch and half of rubber left, is the record made by set Of Giant Firestone solids on an ore truck. which cana into the Fri State Truck & The eornpany's establishment last week, It came in for new tires and, of course they are F'irestones
 These Giant Firestones are immense masses of rubber for they have to sus tain enormous weight and when the work they are called upon to do is considered in connection with the Ari- zona mountain and range roads, such a mileage is considered marvellous. There is also a lot of salvage in the old rubber in the two big tires.
 The -Tri-State people sold a fiveton Kelly Springfield truck to Winter Brothers of Superior last week. It is to be used in hauling ore from the Grand Pacific Copper company mine. This truck was picked because of the hard work it will have to do and the reputation of Kelly Springfields for standing up under adverse roads and in heavy duty work.
