Answer: The matter of price reg

Question: Do you expect us to
save grain in this country for ex-
port to England when the English
admit they have increased their
production of malt by 20 per cent?
Answer: England may be making
more malt than formerly, but we
have her official statement for the
fact that she has reduced her manu-
facture SO per cent. England used
only barley in the manufacture of
beer and in this country barley is
used chiefly as cattle feed and for
beer, very little as human food.
Broadly speaking, the first thing
for us to do is to win this war We
know that the people of England and
France, our associates in the war,
know what to do to get the best re-
suits and keep down the unrest. If
their miners will not mine coal for
England without their ration of beer,
and If as a result there is no coal
to run the battleships and the NUM-
ton factories, then Germany wins
this war.
The whole problem before us is
to win the. war; in the quickest pos
sible way, to save civilization and
end the slaughter.

CODY ARE WELL
G. A. Jones of Eagle Grove Returns
From Trip to Deming and Writes
Eagle Grove Paper Of
Conditions.
EQUIPMENT OF THE CAMP.
Gives Christmas Menu Served the
Soldiers.-W What Y. NJ. c. A.
EQUIPMENT OF The CAMP.

The following letter was written
by G. A. Jones of Eagle Grove to the
Times Gazette of that place:
Having just returned from a trip
to Deming, New Mexico, at which
place I spent four days at Camp
Cody, visiting my son Orville and the
other boys from this vicinity, I
thought it might be of interest to
your readers to learn something OF
the conditions under which the boys
are living, their general welfare and
a little review Of camp life which is
probably typical of other army
camps throughout the country.
First of all, / found that all OF
our boys were in the best OF health
and spirits and they were mighty
glad to see old George Jones from
Eagle Grove, Iowa. They are well
fed, we'll clothed and we'll cared for
and it was something of surprise
to me to find that they had all in
creased in weight from 10 to ~
pounds per man. There was no talk,
or as far as l was able to learn, no
desire to return home and every
little while throughout the day and
evening one could hear snatches OF
song which they seem to have
adopted Where Do We Go From
Here This song tells better than
any words l might use the frame OF
mind in which / found all the SOL
diers. They are the most cheerful,
and contented body of men l have
ever seen.
The Town.
Camp Cody is located on the bord-
err of the city Of Deming, New Mex
leo, town of about the size of Eagle
Grove, and is in the extreme south
western part of, the state: 1T lies in
a valley little distance from the
Rio Numbers river and is surround
ed by mountains, which seem to be
quite near, but which are, as a mat
ter OF fact, some 20 miles distant.
This river is, like other rivers OF
this country, something of freak,
being perfectly dry during the sum-
mer but during snow melting and
flood time is as one of the boys puts
it "hell-tearer."
Camp Cody is a great temporary
city built of lumber and canvas and
can shelter, feed and care for $4,000
soldiers. At the present time it is
estimated that there are from $4,000
to 10000 soldiers there. 1t is equip
ped with hospitals, Y. NJ. G. A. and
knights of Columbus building, the
former for the care of the sick and
the latter two for the moral regula-
ton, entertainment and recreation OF
the soldiers. The tents are built
of uniform size with frame floor
and wall with canvas tops and it is
most inspiring sight to see them
in countless numbers, stretching
across this valley of New Mexico
covering an area possibly four miles
wide and eight miles long. The
camp is laid out in regulation city
style, the streets graded, policed and
we'll kept.
Sanitary Conditions.
Particular attention has been paid
to the sanitary conditions with the
result that there is a minimum OF
sickness, the water is as fine as ]
have ever tasted and more plentiful,
and the whole place impresses one
with the immediate idea Of cleanli-

fOf course it is army life in every
sense of the word, but it is army life
in modern, up-to-date, human form
and Il am sure that parents of the
Camp Cody soldiers will be pleased
to know that the food is plentiful
and wholesome, the tents clean and
sanitary, and. that many forms OF in
nocent diverting amusement are al
ways within reach. / know what I
am talking about in this matter be-
cause through the courtesy of Lieu
tenant Schuster of the Trench Nor
tar Battery, I was permitted to eat
and sleep with the boys during the
four days was there and was as
sured by the boys themselves these
four days were but fair average
and sample of the way they lived
regularly. was served regular
soldiers rations at each meal, and
when I say to those who know me
best that / had plenty, it will give
them an idea as to how the boys are
fed.
I was so fortunate as to spend
Christmas day at Camp Cody and
one of the most inspiring sights |
have ever witnessed was the distri-
button of Christmas gifts to our
American soldiers. The Red Cross
had arranged for every one to get
Christmas box and in order to in
ject the proper spirit into the pro-
ceedings Santa Claus was rugged
up, who by the way was one of our
own boys, and it was well worth
ones time to watch the expression
on the faces of the boys as they
opened their various packages. 1t
was q genuine Christmas for them
and it surely brought forcibly to
their minds that mothers, sisters and
sweethearts had made these things
and it carried their minds back to
their own homes and their faces
showed that they remembered their
mothers, sisters and sweethearts in
the far-a-way north.
On every side there were evidences
Of the activities of the Red Cross
and those who are cold and indif-
trent toward this great society, to
say nothing of those who are abso-
lutely opposed to it by their failure
to give it assistance, would be
ashamed of themselves if they would
only take the trouble to learn the
truth.
The Christmas festivities were not
confined to the receipt Of presents
as the following bill of fare is Just
what was served to every soldier at
Camp Cody on last Christmas.
Breakfast.
Grape fruit with powdered sugar.
