 This accomplishment of our people in this matter stands out even more clearly If we bear in mind that we had available In the fiscal year 1916t7 from net carry-ever and as surplus over our normal consumption about POO, GOO, 00o bushels of wheat which we were able to export that year without trenching on our home loaf" MT.

 These figures, however. do not fully convey the volume of the effort and sacrifice made during the past year by the whole American people. De spite the magnificent effort of our agri- cultural population In planting a much increased acreage in 1917. not only was there very large failure in wheat. but also the corn failed to mature prop. eriy, and our corn is our dominant crop,
 T am sure" Mr Hoover wrote in concluding his report that all the millions or our people, agricultural as well as urban. who have contributed to these results should feel very definite satisfaction that In a year of universal food shortages in the north. ern hemisphere all of those people joined together against Germany have come through into sight of the coming harvest not only with wealth and strength fully maintained. but with only temporary periods of hardship.
 Tt is difficult to distinguish between various sections of our people-the homes, public eating places, food trades, urban or agricultural popula- tions-in assessing credit for these re- suits, but no one will deay the doml- nant part of the American women"

 Our slaughterable animals at the be- ginning of the last fiscal year were not appreciably larger than the year be- fore and particularly in hogs, they were probably less The increase in shipments Is due to conservation and the extra weight of animals added by our farmers

 100000 Bushels Wheat.
CREDIT DUE TO WOMEN.
Meat and Fat Shipments Increased by
 844, ,6oo,o 900 Pounds.

Conservation measures applied oy the American people enabled the Unit ed States to ship to the Allied peoples and to our own forces overseas l4l,- GOO. 900 bushels of wheat and S44,6eo.- 900 pounds of meat during the past year, valued in all at $1,4oo Oo0,000 This was accomplished in the face of serious food shortage in this country, bespealSing the wholeheartedness and patriotism with which the American people have met the food crisis abroad.
 Food Administrator Hoover, in let ter to President Wilson, explains how the situation was met. The voluntary conservation program fostered by the Food Administration enabled the piling up of the millions of bushels of wheat during 1917-1S and the shipment of meat during 1917-1s.
 The total value of all food ship ments to Allied destinations amounted to $1,400, ,O00, 900. all this food being bought through or in collaboration with the Food Administration. These figures are all based on official reports and represent food exports for the harvest year that closed June 30, 1918.

COPPER TO REMAIN AT 2e CENTS.

At conference held at Washington on Wednesday between the price fixing commit tee of the War Industries Board and represen- tatives of the copper producers, it was agreed that 26 cents as the price of copper previously fixed for the period from July 1 to August 15, should continue until November 1, 1918. It is believed that this decision generally pected, and will be approved by the large pro- ducers of copper in this country, and unless radical change in the copper situation should take place in the interim, it is anticipated that this price will prevail after November l, for further period It is realized that the frequent changing of the price of the metal causes dis turbance to the copper industry, and that it would be in the interest of all concerned, eX. cept the few smaller producers whose costs extremely high, to have the market for copper stabilized It would seem only fair, however, that some provision be made for the relief of these small producers

tion of the resources of the country, and takes the position that this conservation should first begin in the public affairs. Every man who accepts office takes oath that he will dis charge the duties of the office, and he is paid a salary to perform said duties. In some cases the office work is done exclusively by the sistant and very rarely can the official be found in the office. This only be classed as public extravagance. Why pay two to do the work of one? But if there must be an as- sistant to each officer, and in order to release as much man power for the essential occupa- tions as possible, it is perfectly in keeping with the mandate of the government to "Let the Women do the Work ''

PEACE BLEATING.

Can it be that the latest peace bleating of Lord Lansdowne is timed to reach this country coincident with the publication of oYr first big casualty list?
 Peace at this time would be the assassina- ton of every human ideal for which we stand. The German Government and the German peo- ple through. their psychology and their train ing, are menace to the liberty of the world. Has their power been broken? Not yet, nor will it be until the day comes when every man, woman and child in Germany knows that the German army has been decisively beaten. So long as German arms can suffer defeat and still convince the home public that they pre-. vail, just so long will the German menace en- dure. The German public must be taught once for all that there is in the world righteous force against which their brutalized standards can never prevail Any peace short of that goal would be traitorous to those American heroes who have gallantly fought and gallant ly died.
 We are on the eve of knowing the extent of our first great sacrifice. We need all our strength, all our faith, and all our resolution The letters that Germany has forged must be struck loose Men must die to make men free Christ Himself died to win salvation for the world.
 This is not the time to talk peace. This is the time to resolve to spend our last drop of blood, if necessary, to free stricken world. Up, Americal Your flesh stands between jus tice and the damnable forces of murder and rape The man among us who cries for Ger man peace in these days is either coward or a traitor. There can be no peace until we have broken the spirit of nation that deliberately set out to rule the world with the sword, and with blood, and with iron.

CONSERVATION OF MAN POWER.

The government IS calling for every availa- ble for some useful occupation, for istment in the national army. Every able bodied man is morally obligated to go into some useful occupation, even if exempt from the draft, and as the productive occupations are well paid jobs, there is no excuse to seek those positions which, while chased as essen- tial, yet are positions that can be filled by the women of the land.
 ''Let the Women to the Work is parti- cularly applicable at this time, but not the heavy labor which requires brawn and mus cle. Many women capable to attend to all official work in business state and county of fees, and wherever they be used to re- place the men for the more essential produc- tive occupations they should be so placed.
 In this regard it is well for the Board of Supervisors to consider this conservation of man power when the employment of the clerks of the various county offices considered at the commencement of the next administration. There seems to exist necessity for the ployment of clerks in some of the offices, but should it be deemed necessary to employ depu- tvs for the county officers who are to be elect ed to do the work (which is usually perform ed to large extent by their assistants) why not ''Let the Women do the Work?''
