ONE AND ONE-HALF
POUNDS.

II we are to furnish the Allies
with the necessary proportion Of
wheat to maintain their war
bread from now until the next
harvest--and this Is a military
necessity--we must reduce our
monthly consumption to 21.000.-
900 bushels a month, as against
our normal consumption Of about
100000 bushels. In other
words, we must reduce our nor
NAL consumption by 30 per cent.
Reservlng a margin for distribu-
ton to the army and navy and
for special cases leaves for gen.
eral consumption approximately
one and one-half pounds Of
wheat products weekly for each
person.
Our wheat supply is short;
our supply of potatoes Is abun-
dant. Decrease your consump-
ton of wheat by increasing your
consumption Of potatoes. There
is no limit on the amount of po-
tatoes that may be used. while
every person Is asked to limit
his use of wheat to one and one
half pounds a week.
A chain of hotels in London
has established the practice of
serving baked potatoes at the
tables to guests free, provided
no bread Is eaten. This substi-
tuition has proved entirely salts
factory. Do this In your own
home. Let the baked potato
take the place Of bread.
The conservation of wheat Is
the most important duty OF the.
nation for the next go days. Do
your share.
It Is a military necessity.

No Doubt Many Public Officials Would
Wish, as This One Did, for "Sub-

Years ago w. II. Wiley, organizer
of the Terre Haute school system, now
retired, was scathingly rebuked by a
Terre Haute newspaper over some Off
cial act
The morning after the attack was
made Mr.. Wiley met a reporter for
the newspaper.
Il don't think you were bit just to
me- said Mr.. Wiley.
The young man held up his hand de-
precatingly and offered some solicitude.
You know, Mr.. Wiley, first reports
are always exaggerated" he said.
Wherewith Mr.. Wiley told story
one he is still fond of telling newspaper
men.
MY father once went into the office
of the first newspaper printed in In
DIANA" said Mr.. Wiley. ut was, the
Locomotive, if I remember rightly. My
father asked the price Of advertise
mentS.
"HOne dollar for the first insertion
and 80 cents for subsequent ones was
the editors reply.
"'Well,' said my father, "Give me
a subsequent one.'"
"Now, young man." said Mr.. Wiley

write me Up, give me subsequent in

little hard nut in the paw which can
not be easily broken with the thumb
and finger, the rabbit is an old one. If
it has entirely disappeared and the
paw resists pressure it is too old for
anything except stew. When dress
ing a rabbit there is thin membrane
which extends from the TANKS over
the intestines. If this is removed the
strong flavor which to many is highly
Objectionable, goes with it, making the
flesh delightfully."- sweet.
Rabbit Fricassee.-A young rabbit is
the only kind to use for such dish.
After carefully dressing it cut it up
in serying-sized pieces or into quar-
tiers and eighths. Roll in highly sea-
soned flour and brown in little hot
chicken fat, then simmer until tender
and when nearly cooked add cream or
rich milk. Cook until a nice gravy is
formed. then serve hot with mashed
potatoes.
Rabbit With carrots.-Prepare the
rabbit as for a fricassee, and when
Drowned add quart or less of finely
shredded carrots cut in matchlike
pieces with a small chopped onion and
plenty of seasoning; add water to sim
mer and let cook slowly in q frying
pan on the back of the stove or in
casserole two or three hours.
Luncheon Dish.-Free leftover fish
from bones and skin and flake with
a fork. To a cupful allow teaspoon
full of -four with quarter of tea
spoonful of mustard, a dash of
cayenne, tablespoonful of butter and
a few dashes of salt: Rub these in
gradients together, adding enough
lemon juice to moisten and half fill
scallop shells, cover with buttered
bread crumbs and set in the oven un-I
til well heated through.
Dry cake crumbs make excellent
buildings stirred into custard and
baked.

Life Still Has Its Joys.

If you are troubled with the belief
that war has taken all the joy out Of
life, you should have been on hand
when the playful wind took the fat
mans hat and he made ziz-zag race
for it along the street car tracks, and
noticed what lot of people stopped
to laugh their eyes full of tears at the
spectacle.-Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
