FOR REPRESENTATIVE.

In presenting myself before the people of Polk county for their representative in the next state leg islature, do so, first, because I be- lieve I can serve the county in that capacity and, second, because many of my friends have asked me to make the race. The year 1868 my father moved into this county. So being reared in this county 1 feel a very deep interest in the welfare of her people. I am proud of the success that has been made on all lines of human advancement; 1; churches schools. farming, live stock, better roads, etc Yet we can make greater improvements. If we will not harbor and stress factions, but all of us ham0nized on the bet ter equipment of the social powers that we all possess finding in each other the best that we each have and unite these powers in the bat ties for life, home and country. Self interest only will inevitably ruin and wreck, not only our own lives, but that of our country. I am glad to see the bankers, merchants and business men generally interested with the farmers and stock men of the country in having the best cat tle hogs and oher stock. and the best methods in, agriculture, and the protection of oltr soil.
 I will greatly appreciate all help can get from the people. Also would be glad to have any of my friends who haven't done so, to speak or write to me f they so wish.
 Fraternally yours.

Do This!

Eat fish and other sea food, poul- try and rabbits, instead of beef, mutt ton and pork. Fish, chickens. etc, cannot be shipped in compact form like meat, and are more perishable.
 Do not use either beef, mutton or pork more than once day.
 Have at least one meatless day a week.
 Serve smaller portions, use all leftover meat cold or made dish es. Use more soups. Use beans they have nearly the same food val ue as meat.
 Remember that no grain or other human food was used to feed the fish that gives you nourlshment. Save the products of the land. Eat more fish.

J0LTING YOUR THINKER.
It is an absolute sin to waste foot Food has become sacred.

It is an absolute sin to waste food. Food has become sacred.
 Do "meatless' and 'wheatlessn mean anything to you? If so, are you observing these orders faithful ly?
 Food means life; it means some body's life; and you cannot escape responsibility
 Has your grocer signed his pledge to the government to give you the benefit of fair and moderate prices? If so ne ought to have a government poster in his store. If you don't see that poster. ask him where it is?
 Little Rock butchers close their stores every Tuesday to make meat less day a reality. That's real pa triotism.
 Food has now taken a dominant position in the war. The American people must prepare themselves to sacrifice far more than was at first thought necessary.
 4 large part of the world is com- ing into the position that Belgium is in and has been in; coming to the stage where the primary and inn portant thing in life is enough food to keep alive.
 The Allies today ask for 25 per cent more fat and dairy products than we can spare unless we con- trive to consume less. And they are not asking for anything more than they actually need.
