This statement by Herbert Hoover
is to be the keynote of one OF the
greatest and gravest weeks in Colo

World Relief, to be held, December l.
S-when the state will assemble its
forces to receive and carry out the
Food Administrations program for
helping to supply with food practical

next harvest.
Herbert Hoover's message covering
the points of this unparalleled attempt

Summarizing the situation in the
great food commodities Herbert
Hoover states:
WHEAT AND RYE: Sufficient sup

TON.
PORK PRODUCTS, DAIRY PRO
DUCTS, VEGETABLE OILS: Short
age OF about three billion pounds.
HIGH PROTEIN FEEDS FOR
DAIRY ANIMALS: Shortage of three
million tons.
BEANS, PEAS AND RICE: Suffi-
cient supplies with ECONOMY IN
CONSUMPTION.
BEEF: Sufficient supplies to load
all refrigerating ships, now available.
to capacity.
COFFEE: surplus.
SUGAR: Sufficient supplies for our
present consumption providing other
nations maintain their present short
rations-a shortage il they increase
their rations.
HOOVER SAYS: I'VE have prom
ised 10000, 900 tons OF food for Europe.
In forty days the shipping of this food
will commence Then the American peo
pie are going to begin feel the strain.
The first commodities which will be
affected will be butter and condensed
milk. A sharp cut in their consump-
ton will Immediately have to be made.
There will be world shortage in
dairy and pork fats for two or three
years and our people will have 10

bound for Europe with these commodi-
ties.

dragging contest which did much to
improve the condition of Sank roads.
Every boy who entered the contest
worked under the direction of the town
chairman who allotted him his mile Of
road to be dragged and put in proper
condition. The town furnished the
road drag and the boy who entered the
contest was paid not to exceed SO for
his work during the summer. The
county board offered a prize of gold
watch to the boy who did the best
work during the summer. Two other
lads did such splendid work that
fund was raised by private subscrip-
ton for the purchase of watches as re-
wards of merit for the work done.

WORLD SHORTAGE
IN BEET SUGAR
Crops Are 30 Per Cent. Less
Than Pre-War Average-Cen-
trail Powers Hit Hardest.
CANE SUGAR is ISOLATED.
Allied Beet Production Falls One-third
in Rigid War Economy
PraCticed.

The world today Is producing forty
war average.
Counting the American, Allied and
German-Austrian crops, as we'll as the
neutrals, the q. S. Food Adm1nistra-
ton has estimated that the world
shortage created by the light crop Of
1917-1918 is at least three and half
million tons.
That the 1917-1918 crop of cane sug
ar was two million tons in excess of
the previous year does not relieve the
general shortage.
Cuba and Java produce one-half of
the world cane crop, and the Java sug-
ar is too far removed from America to
transport when shipping is badly need
ed to transport and maintain the mill
tary forces In France.
In Java large part Of the old sugar
crop is still awaiting shipment. Since
it requires $50 to 100 days for each
boat that is sent to Java, the possibili-
ties of obtaining adequate shipments
Of Java sugar this season are remote.
Allies Production Falls.
Taking the Allied nations as group,
official reports show that beet sugar
production is less by one-third than the
pre-war average.
French beet sugar industry has suf-
fered most by the war. The French
yield of beet sugar is now only 29.1
per cent. Of the pre-war average.
For the five years preceding the out
break Of hostilities in Europe, France
produced an average Of 752, $40 tons Of
sugar each year. For 1918 the
French production was 219,416 tons.
With 81 factories operating, as COM
pared with more than 200 that were
in existence before the war and before
the general campaign Of destructive
ness launched by the German armies,
France nevertheless managed to manu-
facture more beet sugar in 1918
was POP, 415 tons
Italy in 1918 produced 100000
tons of beet sugar, which was $4,000
tons less than the previous year and
1925 less than the annual output Of
sugar for the five year pre-war Pc
riod.
One Of the great difficulties expert
enced in Italy's beet sugar industry
was finding sufficient labor to handle
the crop. Thousands of men Usually
employed in beet sugar production
were called for military service. The
yield per acre amounted to approx
mately half of the usual quantity of
beets harvested.

supplies. Led by their eXperimenters,
her dairymen, her poultry raisers and
her gardeners are raising and storing
vast stores of the foods most needed
in the present emergency. Everyone
has known that certain foods are
scarce, many are very high in price,
and others can scarcely be had at any
cost, but until recently many have not
recognized as great differences as
there are in the different foods.
Most housewives have been trying
to find new ways of keeping down the
cost of food for their families. In
doing SO they are trying many new
foods and combinations. and right
here Is where the work dene by Pro-
fessors Hart, McCOllum and Steen-
book, at the University of Wisconsin,
proves of the greatest value. They
have worked out certain facts concern
ing the nutritive value of foods which
need now to be generally understood
in order that the people, and particu-
iarly growing boys and girls, need not
suffer from improper selection.
Save but Do Not Stint.
ut is very necessary that we save
food and avoid its waste" say these
experimenters, but it is probable that
Id many cases high prices may lead
us to stint ourselves on certain essen
tial foods. This condition is particu-
larly true in reference to milk.
In the fall of 1917, even though the
, price of milk had not gone up so much
as the prices Of many other articles
Of food, less was used in Chicago, New
York and other of our cities. In New
York the Jewish mothers, who by long
experience or tradition had learned
the true value of this product for chill
dren, were the only class which bought
and used the normal amount of milk
In spite of its increased cost.
Shoes have also increased in price,
but we purchase them as q necessity,
grumbling though we may, but realiZ-
ing that we cannot be without them.
The same is true of other things thst
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1918-08-15


: are classed as necessities. Why should
we not think in the same way of milk
and dairy products, so necessary for
the growth of vigorous, healthy chill
dren?
No nation, so far as we know, has
ever reached or maintained high vi
rility and leadership that has not had
in it's diet animal products of some
kind. In the far East are to be found
peoples who are practically vegeta-
rians. In no case are they as vigorous
or progressive as they should be. That
products is undoubtedly to be ex-
planned by their consumption of the
actively growing parts of plants, es-
pecially the leaves.
Whole milk is a perfect food for the
young. Fed by itself it will efficiently
support growth. There are but few
single articles Of food that will do this.
Eggs will do it, but cornmeal or oat-
meal, for example, will not.
Animal life, after thousands of years
Of evolution and many trials and prob
able failures, finally produced in milk
food of superior quality 1t, like the
egg, has been developed to meet the
needs of the growing young. An egg
contains potential life The mother
hen has scratched and eaten from a
variety Of sources, only finally to put
into the egg all the food essentials
needed by the unfolding chick.
Similarly the dairy COW, from her
| coarse and bulky feed of grain and
roughage, takes the essentials, chang
ing and improving some of them for
the production of a better or more per-
feet food than that which she has
eaten. Milk, like the egg, contains all
the food needs of the growing young.
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1918-08-15

and so will slip back to the old catch
as-catch-can method of agricultural
production and will fall short Of realiz-
ing what they might.
This leaves five counties which have
neither agricultural representatives
nor emergency food agents. From the
service which the agricultural repre-
sentatiyes and emergency food agents
have rendered this spring with secur-
ing seed corn, wheat acreage, increased
sugar beet production, increases in
wool and mutton production and so on,
in counties which have such agents it
is possible to determine just how short
these ten counties are in coming up to
what they might attain in agricultural
production. Some Of these ten counties
lie in groups of our best agricultural
areas, too. Why are these counties
