BREAKFAST FOODS.

There are various methods of pre-
pairing breakfast food substitutes that
will taste just like the original, and
will have about the same food proper
ties. One is to save all lead pencil
sharpenings. They make al excellent
substitute when baked in the oven, If
cream and sugar are added. Then
there is excelsior. Everyone has a lit
tie around the house which came
packed around the new electric light
globes. When this is toasted, and a
lash of cream and paralyzed sugar
added, it is said to be delicious and
nourishing. The best substitute, how
ever, is made by running the old straw
hat through the meat grinder. Nearly
everyone has a few straw hats around
the house. One gents straw hat will
furnish enough breakfast food for a
family of twelve, and a lady's hat will
feed three or four families for a week.

needs must plant and reap and SOW.

the dickens without stops, besides my

my trust, and raise a bumper crop or
bust. But here 1 pause in my hard
task to bow my head and humbly ask ::
What nave you gents, with all your
pirate, lone for us farmers up to date?"
The town man threw his arms on
high, her pulled them down, to loudly
cry: "Ungrateful agriculturalist, by
cold rains soaked and hot winds kist,
do you not know that we are through

FASTENED RUSSIAN COLLAPSE

I'VE must not overlook the fact that
Russia collapsed, not because of the
Germans on her borders, but because
she failed to organize and feed heI

"We must be warned that If we are to
emerge victorious from this war we can
not risk the collapse Of another Of our

Anybody that is looking for the col
lapse of the German people on the food
question had better urn around and

will be the same. Germany is In no
more danger of collapsing on that

HEAVY LOSSES OF WILD GAME.

ton to the game laws and enact the
proper restrictions relative to pre-
serves, and also amend some of the
present regulations in accord with ex-
listing conditions.
II nm glad to report that the depart
ment continues to pay a revenue over
and above operating expenses, and,
with a proper law, this evenue IA be
increased to a great extent
Thousands of dollars are brought
into the state each year by tourists and
hunters. Why not consider them? AS
a rule, the average nonresident hunter
is a good sportsman and should be en-
Outraged, not discouraged. 10 en-
courage this class of hunters we must
make it possible for them to secure
good specimens of wild game-which
means that our game must be kept up
to the standard.
1.-The average citizen does not realize
what the game department means by
way Of evenu to the state. Our in
come for the years 1915, 1916 and 1917
amounted to a total of $114,646.49, mi
nus the $14,497.76 paid to various Of
ficers as commissions on game licenses
issued. The operating expenses for
said years, including all branches I'M
der our supervision, amounted to $780,
$40. II, leaving a revenue in the amount
of $23,996.72. Adding to this a conser-
vative estimate of the value of the buff
falo herd at Thernopolis, controlled by
the state, and amounting to $500,
makes "a total of $2S,496.72 revenue
over and above disbursements"
Mr.. Wilson recommends an amend
ment to the state game laws whereby
the resident hunter will have equal
rights with the nonresident in the mat
ter of hunting bear, and incidentally
reports thai the deer are increasing in
the state, particularly in Park county
and the southern half of Fremont
county.
Reports filed by guides show the fol
lowing game animals killed by non
resident hunters during the past sea-
son Elk, 1877; deer, 3; mountain
sheep, II; bear, IS. Eighty-six arrests
for illegal hunting were made, and the
fines of those convicted totalled $2,574.
