BIG HERDS eONE
World War Wastes Europe's
Meat Supply.
American Stock Raisers Cooperate
With Food Administration In Con-
scrvation Measures.

1t is probable that Europe for many
years after the war will look to a
great extent to America for It's meat
supply.
Europe's herds are dwindling under
wars demands faster than they can bo
replenished.
When the German armies retired
from occupied portions of France and
Belgium approximately 100000 head
of cattle We're appropriated. This ad-
dition virtually safeguarded Germany
from cattle shortage other nations now
suffer.
In England some 100000 acres of
grass lands have by compulsory meas
ures been forced into grain production,
thus reducing pasturage and hay lands.
a declining scale of maximum meat
prices for live cattle was ordained in
England, as follows: For September,
$17.76 per hundred pounds; October,
S17.2S November and December,
$16.0S, and for january, S14.40. The
evident intent of this measure was to
drive the beef animals into market as
soon as possible.
According to official French figures,
the cattle of France have decreased to
total of 1871 900 as compared with
14,SO7,O in 1913. Today, due to lack
of forage principally. France is pro-
ducing only one gallon of milk where
before the war two and one-hnlf gal-
Ions were produced
Meantime the United States food ad-
ministration has taken steps to con.
serve our tiocks and herds and to in.
crease their numbers. The stock breed.
ers of this country show a disposition
to cooperate with the government In
this.
For many years it has been prac.
tice among many of the dairy people
of this country to Eill male calves at
birth and in many instances the fe.
males If not needed to replenish their
herds rather than so to the expense OF
maturing them into veal. The high
prices of meat caused the virtual dis.
continuance of this killing. Another
encouraging fact is 10 per cent. OF
calves killed for veal this year were
males.
Somebody has very aptly said that
the wars of the world have been won
with grease, meaning that bacon and
lard have been as essential to success
in war as powder, which is true.
The hogs of Europe have been very
greatly sacrificed to present day needs.
This makes the American burden all
thp moro hpoyv and ,nol,cS 1nl,bly os.

Rev. Scott occupied the pulpit
at the M. E. church last Sunday
night. The people of our city in
most part failed to hear one of
the best discourses given in our
city for many a day. The sub.
ject was relative to our war and
the speakers words were filled
with patriotism and sound reason
ing tending to inspire loyalty and
confidence in the minds of the
hearers, as to their country and
her war plans. The sp aker at
tempted to prove that war is some
times justifiable, aud he succeed
ed in that attempt by convincing
argument that the U. S. is justi-
fled in her part in the world war.
Quarterly conference was held
at the close of the sermon.

WAR BREAD COSTLY TO
BRITISH GOVERNMENT

Every year the British government
pays $2OO,O00,000 toward the cost Of
that nations war bread. That is the
principal reason why English bread
prices are lower today to the consumer
than in America. Incidentally the
British bread is much poorer than the
American.
Great Britain has taken over all
home grown grain, bought at an arbi-
trary price, and all imported wheat
bought In markets of the world at pre-
vailing prices. This Is turned over to
the mills by the government at price
that allows the adulterated war bread
loaf Of four pounds to sell at IS cents.
The two pound loaf costs 8 cents, and
the one pound loaf sells for cents.
In milling, however. IA per cent
more flour is extracted from the wheat
than in America. And there Is com.
pulsory adulteration of 20 per cent.
and an allowable adulteration of so
per cent.
Compared with American bread, the
British product is only about G5 per
cent. pure at it's best
In France, under conditions some
what similar, but with larger extrac-
ton, the four pound loaf sells for 1G
cents.

SEIZURE OF HOUSEWIVES
FOOD STOCKS IMPOSSIBLE

The government has never consid-
cred any plan OF seizing foodstufs
owned by househodcrs. Nor is there
any policy of this kind suggested for
the future.
In spite of this fact, the United
States food administration has been
obliged repea tctlly to Issue official de-
mails of rumors that the government
intends communicating preserves and
canned goods put up in American
homes.
These rumOrs were originated partly
by prO-Germnn propagandists and part
ly by constituencies graftcrs, who
sought to profit through buying from
miSinformed housewives.
The year 1918 will see home canning
and preserving prnctlced on greater
scale than ever before in the nations
history, officials in Washington believe.
And they are assuring all patriotic
housewives that foods so saved are
theirs. and theirs alone.

AMERICAN SAVINGS Will
MEASURE WHEAT EXPORTS

1--WE have already exported the
whole of the surplus of the 1917 wheat
harvest, over and above the normal de-
mands of our own population. 1t is
necessary, therefore, for tie food ad-
EliniStration to restrict export 0f wheat
so rs to retain in thc United States
sufficient supplies TO carry our own
people until the next harvest.
"Thcrefore all exports OF wheat
from now forward are limited cntirly
to volume of saving made by the Amer
lean people in their consumption of
wheat and wheat products.
I'VE continued wheat shipments fo-
December rs far as our situation al
lowed, but even with all the conscrva-
ton made we were still unable to load
several hundred thousand tons of food
stuffs urgently required by the allied
nations during the month of December
alone"

WHEAT-CORN YEAST BREAD.

Wheat-corn bread Is more nutritious
than bread baked with wheat flour
nlone. Thousands Of American fam
lilies today are using this mixed flour
bread, and In so doing are enabling
America to provide more wheat flour
for the allies. Here's n tested recipe
for this bread: Take one and half
cups OF milk, water or a mixture Of
the two: one-half cake compressed
yeast, one and half teaspoons salt,
one tablespoon sugar, one tablespoon
Of int II desired, one cup cornmenl
and two cups wheat flour.
Put one and a half cups Of wnter.
the cornmeal, salt, sugar and fat (if
used) into n double boiler md cook
twenty minutes. The water is sufi-
cient only to soften the meal a little.
Allow the meal to cool to about the
temperature Of the room and add the
flour and yenst mixed with the rest
of the water. Knead thoroughly,
mQke into loat, place in pan Of stand
ard size. allow to Else until nearly
fills the pun and bake. 45 or so min
utes. It IL hardly practicable to use
n greater percentage OF cornmeal than
this even In emergencies, for bread 10
made differs very little from baked
mush. Less cOrnmeal can he used
and In sucn n cnse the general meth
cd given above may he followed.
1t is possible to make yeast raised
corn bread without FIRST cooking tho
cornmeal. In this case not more than
one cupful Of meal should be used to

SEVEN l0AvES OF BREAD

U. s. Food Administration from the

now possible to announce with fair ac-
curacy the amount OF wheat saved last
harvest by improved methods of han.
ding. According to official calcula-
uons, efforts toward cleaner threshing
saved fully. 16, ,eOO, 900 bushels OF wheat
with corresponding savings of other
small grain harvested and threshed In
a similar manner In addition. othe,
states, though unable 10 furnish tig
ures, reported greatly reduced harvest

The figure for wheat alone Ii equiv

bread for every person Ia the United

recovered surpasses early expecta-
