Mrs. j l.. Blount has Just received
letter from her grandson, Kenneth
Freidlander, sailor in the United States
navy, that tells of an unexpected
pleasure the young sailor had in meet
ing his cousin, Leon Littlefeld, artl-
leryman, en- route to France, aboard
the transport to which Freidlander had
been assigned. Neither knew the other
was aboard the boat until they hap
pened to meet, after the ship left port,
on deck.
The letter told of collision of the
transport carrying the local boys with
another of the convoy. 1t was thought
the transport had been so badly dam
aged that she would sink, and the call
was sounded to abandon the ship. 1t
was later discovered that the other
boat had sustained the more severe
damages. The transports returned to
the home port, working the pumps all
the way.

tobacco for my boy" said Frank E.
Skinner, Oak Grove orcharardist, last
week as he prepared for shipment the
maximum weight of "the weed" for
his son, Horace R. Skinner, member
of company of the 30th Engineers,
known as ''The Gas and Flame Unit. "
Henry Blagg is a member of the
same company.
In recent letter home, Mr.. Skinner
told his parents that his company had
inst been given tests in rooms filled
with poison gases.

MADE-IN- GERMANY LIES
 CIRCULATED IN CANADA

Canada is also having trouble with Made-in-Germany lies calculated to hinder Canadian food conservation ac- cording to an official statement re ceived from the Canadian food con- troller by the United States food ad- 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 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 fn each instance have been calculated to arouse public indignation.
 "They are insidious, subtle, persist ent. Bit by bit they dissipate 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 to mean more than the majority of people yet realize"

CORN WILL WIN DEMOCRACYSWAR Americas Greatest Cereal Crop
 Is Now Moving to

 ened Europe.
MAINSTAY IN NATIONS CRISIS.

Americas great corn crop, exceed ing 3,OOO,OOO.OOO bushels, will save the worlds food situation, officials of the United States food administration be- Heve.
 Corn is the nations best food cereal, housewives are beginning to realize. It contains all the elements needed to keep the body in a state of health and when used according to the scores of tried recipes, especially when com bined with an added portion of oil or fat, will sustain life indefinitely. h. dian warriors in colonial days lived on parched corn alone for many days at a time, and at Valley Forge parched corn was at times the sole ration of the Continental soldiers.
 Owing to transportation difficulties caused by the war the corn crop moved more slowly to market this year than ever before. Now, however, the cereal is reaching the millers and consumers. In the meantime the nations surplus wheat has been sent to Europe.
 Today there are approximately 30 bushels of corn for every American. This quantity is greater by five bush

NEED BIG HERDS
Europe's Meat Supply Must Come
 From America.
Warning Nations Have Depleted lhss Stock at Enormous Rate. EVea
 Killing Dairy Cattle For Food.

American stock breeders are being asked to conserve their fioeks and herds in order to meet Europe's Ire mendous demands for meats during the war and probably for many years afterward
 The United States food admins traitor reports that American stock raisers have shown a disposition to cooperate with the government in in creasing the nations supply of live stock.
 Germany today is probably better supplied with live stock than any oth-l CT European nation. When the Ger- man armies made their big advsncs| into France and then retreated vir-] tually all the cattle in the invaded territory approximately 1.SO0 o0OI head-were driven behind the German| lines.
 But in England-where 24OQOOI acres of pasture lands have been turn ed into grain fields-the cattle herdz are decreasing rapidly. One of thsI reasons apparently is the declinin maximum price scale adopted by th4
  $17.76 per 100 pounds October, S1I2S November and December, $160S, Jan lary, $14.40. The effect of these price was to drive beef animals on the mar ket as soon as possible.
 In France the number of cattle well as the quality have shown enormous decline during the wal Where France had 14.S07, 900 head cattle in 1913, she now has only 12 341, 300, a decrease of 16l6 per cen And France is today producing onl one gallon of milk compared to rw and one-half gallons before the wa
 Denmark and Holland have bee forced to sacrifice dairy herds for bel because of the lack of necessary fee
 Close study of the European me situation has convinced the Food A miniStration that the future prohle of America lies largely in the prOdu ton of meat producing animals al dairy products rather than in the pr duction of cereals for export wh the war will have ceased
