INTELLECT WILL NOT SUFFICE
Writer Asserts That National Success
Must Have Foundation Firmly I'M
bedded in the Spirit.

A magazine writer bases national
success upon intellectual leadership.
But the intellect is no more to be
trusted than the tricks of card.
The intellectuals are always tum-
bling into ditch on Sunday or any
other day. Justice, temperance, pur-
ity, honesty are not thought out. If
there was nothing to direct them but
the so-called mind they would lose
their identity. There is a time in
the psychological process where the
intellect must turn to the heart for
guidance. If it doesn't, discord, dis
aster and doom are sure to follow in
its train. When you see some pomp-
ous person occupying the cold and
icy SUBMITS of thought and attempt
ing to declare the truth from them
look out, he is in for fall. 1t is
impossible for the truth TO come
from anywhere except from the
spirit. All judges, governors, pro-
fessors, preachers, politicians, teach
ers, newspapers should recognize
that fact, and because they don't is
why the old world is heeling about
in the most disorderly way, not
knowing where it is going next or
how it will fare when it gets there.

GENERAL SUGAR CONSERVATION
Is sugar necessary in the diet?

Is sugar necessary in the diet?
Neither beet sugar is necessary. In the
average American diet allthesugar needed may ordi-
nary be supplied by using honey, srups, fresh pre-
served and dried fruits.
What the general sugar saving rules?
Use all sugar sparngly and wherever possible
other sweeteners Be sparing of confections and
sweet cakes. The American people last year spent
enough money for candy to feed all Belgium for two
years Supplement sugar with honey and srups.
Cultivate taste for fruit in it's natural sweetness
Sugar is fuel food Get fuel from potatoes and
other starchy foods rather than from sugar. Sugar
exces them energy-food only because it pro-
duces energy more quickly. They excel sugar since
they supply more than merely the fuel need.
How may the sugar ration be expressed in quantities
known to everyone?

SUGAR SHORTAGE HITS
SPAIN AND PORTUGAL

In Spain and Portugal sugar prices
are soaring. Both countries have been
seriously affected by the short beet
sugar crop in Europe and the lack of
ocean tonnage to move stocks of cane
sugar isolated in far away ports.
Granulated sugar, home grown, was
being sold in Barcelona, Spain, during
the early summer at 10 cents a pound.
The price of brown sugar in I.isboa,
Portugal, fixed by governmental order,
was $104 to SLIP pound.

| In spite of subnormal food supply
In this country the American people
have been able to ship to the Allies
as we'll as our own forces overseas
141, ,000,00 bushels of wheat, besides
S44, ,600, 900 pounds of meat, during the
year ending June so last. This has
been made possible by the whole
souled cooperation of the people,
who, besides practicing self-denial,
have speeded up production and re-
sponded nobly to the appeal from
abroad.
Food Administrator Hoover, In
letter to President Wilson, gives
brief summary of the results of food
conservation in the United States and
of the activities of the Food Admin
istration to this end. The conserve
ton measures have been put through
practically on voluntary basis which
is regarded as a splendid tribute to
the patriotism of the American people.
Meat shipments were increased S44,-
100000 pounds during the first fiscal
year, as compared with our meat ex-
ports during the year before America
entered the war.
1.-THE total value of these food ship
ments," Mr.. Hoover wrote President
Wilson, (which were in the main pur-
chased through or with collaboration
] of the Food Administration, amount
to, roundly, S1,400,00O,o00 during the
fiscal year"
In 1916-17 the United States sent
the Allies 2,166,500,OO0 pounds of
meat In 1917-18, with voluntary con-
servation practiced In America, and
aided by extra weight of animals, we
sent the Allies 2,011, 100000 pounds of
meat, an increase of 844,6O0,0O0
pounds.
Wheat Saving Enormous.
When the Food Administration be-
gan operations in the summer Of 1917,
this country was facing large deficit
in wheat Counting in all carry-Over
wheat from the 1915 crop, we had at
the beginning of the 1917 harvest year
Just enough wheat to take care Of
Americas normal consumption,-no 4
bushel of surplus.
At the close of the 1918 harvest
year the Food Administrations official
reports showed that our total wheat
shipments to the other side had been
141 100000 bushels. Every bushel
shipped was wheat saved by the
American people from their normal
consumption.
In cereals and cereal products re-
duced to terms of cereal bushels our
shipments to Allied destinations were
S4O,8OO,0O0 bushels, S0,900,000 bushels
more than the amount sent in 1867.

The secret Of good roads is for
every farmer to do his part in
keeping them dragged, according
the Lyman County Farm Bureau
News. County Agent LewaIlen
writes further: "Road dragging fits
in about the best of any work on
the farm, for a fellow can drag for
a few hours when it is too wet to
get into the field, and he certainly
appreciates having it when it is
time to go to town with the wagon
or the Ford. Farmers who have
dragd the roads have the thanks of
all other farmers in the country
and the praise Of all visitors. But
the roll of honor should he in-
creased.
! sit seems queer that SO easily
constructed an implement MS .
King road-drag can create such
wonders on heavy roads. The best
way to convince yourself is to
drag your own stretch of road. If
you have already dragd it every
farmer who has gone over it IS
talking about it and wishing to
goodness that you had gone on a
couple Of miles farther"
