1 cent of the ;verag monthly amount purchased ill the four months prior to March 1.
 o Manufacturers using wheat prod ucts for non-food purposes should cease slch use entirely.
 c. There is no limit upon the use Of other cereals, Hours, and meals, corn. barley, buckwheat, potato flour, ct Cetera.
 Many thousand families throughout the land are now using no wheat prod ucts whatever, except very small amount for cooking purposes, and are doing so in perfect health and satisfac- tlon. There is no reason why all of the American people who are able to cock in their own households cannot subs.st perfectly well with the use of less wheat products than one and one half pounds q week, and we specially ask the well-to-do households in the country to follow this additional pro @ramme ill order that we may provide the necessary marginal supplies for those parts of the community less able to adapt themselves to so large pro- portion of substitutes.
 In order that we shall be able to make the wheat exports that are ab- solutely demanded of us to maintain the civil population and soldiers of the allies and our own army, We propose to supplement the voluntary cO-opera- tion of the public by d further limita- ton of distribution, and we shall place at once restrictions on distribution which will be adjusted from time to time to secure as nearly equitable dis tribution as possible With the arrival of harvest we should be able to relax such restrictions. Until then we ask for the necessary patisnce sacrifice and cooperation of the distributing trades.

ALLlEr FOOD SHIPMENTS
 REACH LARGE TOTAL

A general idea of the quantity of food sent to European allies by the United States from July 1, 1914. to January l, 1918, is given by figures just announced by the U. s. Food Ad- ministration. In that period the Unit ed States has furnished complete year ly rations for 57,100,933 people. In addition there was enough extra pro- tein to supply this portion of the diet for 22, 194 ,57O additional men.
 The total export of wheat and wheat flour to the three principal allies is equivalent to about 3S4 100000 bushels. Pork exports for the 31s years amount ed to almost 2,00OO00,0OO pounds. Ex. ports of fresh beef totaled 443,4S4 100 pounds. The amount of food exported to Russia is negligible compared with that sent to the western allies.

Great W heat Stocks
 Isolated.

It's the shortage in ships that is putting the Allies and the United States on wheat rations. Great stocks of wheat are iso- lated in India, and Australia. At great sacrifice in ship space and use the Allies are forced to se- cure some wheat from Argentina.
 On January 1, Australia had stored 100,000,00O bushels of wheat that was ready for ex- port-but there were no ships. Then came the new crop with an eXportable surplus of SO,OoO- GOO bushels. Now Australia has approximately 1S0,000,OOO bush els waiting for ships.
 India, at the same time, had 70,O00,0O0 bushels of wheat stored for export. During April 50,000.000 bushels more out of the new crop will be added to the pile.
 Argentina closed the last ship ping season with 11,000,00O bushels of wheat left in the stock available for export. The new crop will add 135,00O,000 to the left over.
 It is not q problem that the wheat does not exist in the worid--it is entirely q problem of shipping, which has thrown on America the obligation of divja. ing our stock with the Allies.

PUTS O. K. ON SAUERKRAUT
Food Administration Says 1t Is Valu.
able Food and Use Should
Be Encouraged.

Washington.-On account Of it's sup
pOsedly German name, sauerkraut
seems to be losing its popularity as an
American dish. The food administra-
ton has learned that throughout the
country men and women In their pa
triotic zeal have been spreading a
strong propaganda to discourage the
use Of a valuable foodstuff.
AS matter Of fact, the dish is said
to be Of Dutch, rather than of German
origin. In any event, sauerkraut is a
valuable food and adds to the variety
I'm which cabbage may be prepared.
It's wider use would no doubt stimu-
late a greater use Of cabbage and
would further the food administra-
TONS campaign for increased con-
sumption of perishable foodstuffs and
a greater saving Of the staple foods
needed abroad.
No matter by what name it may be
known, sauerkraut is a valuable food
and its use should not be curtailed as
a result Of overzealous and ill-advised
patriotism.

While the mending mothers sew

Nature of FATIGUE,

Fatigue is the presence in the blood
Of poisonous by-products of life cr.n-
bustion. While we are awake the POI.
sons accumulate faster than the sys-
TEN can remove them. When we are
asleep, when the life combustion is
slowed down, the system removes them
faster than they accumulate. It is
as though ashes accumulate in stove
at such a rate that the fire had to be
put out every so often to allow
chance to remove them.

er all the way over with the excep-
ton of two days when those who had
never crossed before seemed to think
they had better be quiet. I was not
troubled with seasickness at all but
ocean was so rough the waves came
into the ship. Albert Sherbert and
tire fellows I know from Newport,
were on the ship so it made it very
pleasant to have some one from home
to visit with. I think we will not be
together much longer. Arrived at
this place today. We have been NOV
ing every day for three weeks and I
have slept on nearly everything dur
ing the time. On the ship we had
hammocks so all we had to do was to
close our eyes and the ship would
rock us to sleep. This is sure some
country. All you can see is grain of
all kinds. The houses are built of
brick and stone. Everyone seems
glad to have us come. Will have a
