American Meat Restrictions Re.
 faxed to Effect Greater Wheat Savings.
ARGENTINE ARRIVALS SHORT,
Meat Supply Here Considerably En. laraed - Food Administration However, Warns Against
 Waste

The allies have made further and Increased demands for breadstufIs, these enlarged demands being caused to some degree by shortage In arrivals from the Argentine. It Is, therefore, necessary for the U. $. Food Admins tratlon to urge a still further reduction In the consumption of bread and bread stuffs generally if we are to meet our export necessities The Food Admin istration has issued il statement ex plajning the situation In detail, partic ularly the reasons which lead It, fol the purpose of centering effort for the time being upon the cereal situation to relax temporarily the restrictions on meat consumption.
 Experience shows, this statement says, that the consumption of bread stpffs Is intimately associated with the consumption of meat For various reasons our supplies of meat for the next two or three months are consid erably enlarged, and we can supply the allies with all of the meat products which transportation facilities render possible and at the same time some s~1zat increase our own consumption In these circumstances the Food Ad ministratnn considers it wise to relax the voluntary restrictions on meat con. sumption to some extent with a view to further decreasing bread consump- ton.
 Conservation of food must be ad juSted to meet necessities from time to time, for neither production, nor al He'd demands are constant fnctors, nor can any or these factors Dc anticipateJ for long periods in advance In the dis turbed conditions in which we at pres ent live While the world situation is not one that warrants any relaxation in the efforts 10 eliminate waste or to relax economy Tn food, the Admins tration desires to secure better adjust, ment In food balances.
 So long as the present conditions continue the only special restrictions we ask are the beefiess and porklcss Tuesday.
 The meatless mcnl and the porkicss Saturday are no longer asked.
 The farmers of the United States are responding 10 the national call to increase hog production. Their in- crease. 10 all appearances, is being at. tnIned more rapidly Of more imme- diate importance, however, are several complex factors which have effected an immediate increase In meat sup plies.
 The transportation shortage before the government took over the rnil. roads, the bad weather in January and early in February, the large percent age of immature corn in the last har- vest and the necessity of feeding this corn as rapidly as possible to save 1t from decay, have not only resulted in backing up the animals-particular hogs-on the farms for longer pc. riod of feeding, but have resulted in a great increase In their average weight and will result, with improved trans portation conditions, which already ap. pear, in larger than normal arrivals at market for the next two or three months The weight of hogs coming

MISSOURI PIGS ALSO LOYAL
They Will Root for Third Liberty Loan
 Bond Campaign.

Missouri pigs will root for the worlds freedom, will supply food for the Sammies and create a fund for the purchase of Limbertylhm shtmeshrdl purchase of Liberty Bonds.
 A whole trainload of young porkers will wend their way from Audrain County, Mo, to the St. Louis market, where they will enter the shambles and willingly give up their lives that the boys lover there" may live.
 The pig idea is the product Of the fertile brain of a Missouri woman. Mrs. c. F. Clark of Mexico, realizing that pigs is pigs" no longer, but money instead, took her project up with the farmers, who heartily en- dorsed her plan. They have agreed to load up the train with pigs and invest the proceeds in Liberty Bonds of the third issue.

Great Wheat Stocks
 Isolated.

It's the shortage in ships that is putting the Allies and the United States on wheat rations. Great stocks of wheat are iso- lated In India, and Australia. At great sacrifice in ship space and use the Allies are forced to se- cure some wheat from Argentina.
 On January 1, Australia had stored 1O0,000,0O0 bushels of wheat that was ready for ex. port-but there were no ships Then came the new crop with an exportable surplus of SO,OO0.- GOO bushels. Now Australia has approximately 1S0,O00,O00 bush. els waiting for ships.
 India, al the same time, had 70,OOO,0O0 bushels of wheat stored for export. During April 5O,OOO,OO0 bushels more out of the new crop will be added to the pile.
 Argentina closed the Inst ship ping season with 100000 bushels of wheat left In the stock available for export. The new crop will add l35.OO0.0O0 to the left over.
 II is not problem that the wheat does not exist in the werld-it is entirely a problem of shipping. which has thrown on America the obligation of dlvid. ing our stock with the Allies.

MADE-IN- N-GERMANY LIES
 CIRCULATED IN CANADA

Canada is also having trouble with Made-in-G Germany lies calculated to hinder Canadian foodaconservation ac. cording to an official statement re ceived frour the Canadian food cHn- trorfer Dy CaE 'UETysU Stases Toou au. ministration
 The stories bothering Canada are of the same general character as those the United States food administra tor recently denounced In this coun. try, such as the ridiculous salt and blueing famine fakes and the report that the government would seize housewives stocks of home canned goods.
 The Canadian food controller esti mates that when the people listen to and pass on such stories, each one has the power of destruction that lies in a battalion of soldiers.
 "StOries without even a vestige of foundation have been scattered broad cast" said the Canadian statement. "Nor have they come to life casually. They have started simultaneously in different parts of the country and in each instance have been calculated to arouse public indignation.
 "They are insidlous, subtle, persist. ent. Bit by bit they disslpate public trust, the great essential in the work of food control.
 Tt lies with every individual to for. bear from criticism; to refrain from passing on the vagrant and harmful story, and thus the more effectively to cooperate in work which Is going than the majority ot
 lize."

CAUSED VERY MUCH
CONCERN In RICHMOND
Can't. Carlo Britain In Command
of the Michigan, With Five
Madison Boys In Crew.

Much interest and anxiety was
occasioned in Richmond late
Thursday when the Daily Regis
ter's Associated Press dispatch
was read that six seamen were
killed and three injured on the U.
S. S. Michigan, in a gale off the
the Atlantic coast. Capt. Carlo
B Britain, whose wife is here
now visiting her parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. T. E. Baldwin, is in COM
mand of the Michigan, and there
are five Richmond young men on
the Michigan and one of Lancas-
ter. Luckily none of them was
hurt. The Richmond members of
the crew are Cecil Simmons,
Evan McCord, Del Azbill, John
William McCord, Andrew Nc
Cord and young man named
Terrill from Garrard county.
Mr.. Simmons was in Richmond
for 10 days a few days ago, and
probably just reached the ship III
time to go on this cruise. Mrs.
Britain says that the Michigan
went out of port on Monday, the
day she left Capt. Britain. No
information is, of course, given
as to the destination or length
of the cruise, though it is thought
probable that the ship will put
into port with the bodies of the
men killed, and also the injured.
A fuller dispatch gave the nam
es of the men killed and injured
as follows: The dead: Osben
Capers Belyeu, Carl Frederick,
Clarence Eugene Book, Frank
/ John Prinz, Julian S. Bell, all sea
men; and John Engellio, Chicago
a fireman.
The injured are: Edward Thos
Mcdonald, left leg broken; Cor
don Solomon Farmer, both arms
broken; Virgil V. Biggers, thigh
cut and head and ankle injured
ALI the injured are seamen.

500 OF MADISON FEEDERS
.sked To Help Make Up $20.-
q Cattle Premium Fund.

a movement has been inaugur-
ated by the Kentucky State Fair
to have a 100000 premium list
for cattle exhibitors at the Fair
this year. Ten thousand dollars
will be given to the cattle breed
ers of the State, and $4,000 will
will go to the cattle feeders. The
State of Kentucky will be divid-
ed into three sections and COM
petition will be confined to each
section.
This is one of the biggest un-
dertakings ever inaugurated by
the State Fair, and especially so
under present conditions. This
will give cattle breeding and cat
tie feeding industry a greater
stimulus than can possibly be
given through any other channel.
Competition for prizes is conhn-
ed to the state of Kentucky, and
the fatted cattle competing must
be owned by the exhibitor since
May l, 1918. Cattle competing
in the feeding exhibits must in
owned by the exhibitor at least
80 days before prior to the date
of exhibition. No exhibitor will
be permitted to exhibit and show
more than one entry in each
class.
In order to secure this gener-
Gus premium list, which should
interest every breeder and feeder
of cattle in the state, it becomes
necessary to raise $4,000 by sub

Most of Administrator Gar

exactly what form of industries

parently the whole country is

it appeared doubtful if it will be
made public owing to fears that
the Fuel Administration will be
swamped with requests from

Some of the industries notified
of their exemptions were steel
mills, producing ship plates,
woolen mills turning out goods
for the army and navy, and GER
tain domestic utilities, including
ice plants which, however, should
consolidate, wherever possible
and operate only one plant anc
distribute the output through the
others.
