and to our own forces overseas l4I'-
600. 900 bushels Of wheat and S44'ooo'-
OOO hounds of meat during the past
wear valued in all at $1,4OO, OOO,OOO
This was accomplished In the face OF a
serious food shortage In this country,
bespeaking the wholeheartedness anu
patriotism with which the American
people have met the food crisis abroad.
Food Administrator Hoover, In let
fer TO President Wilson, explains now
the situation was met The voluntary
conservation program fostered by the
Food Administration enabled the ping
mn of the millions of bushels OF wheat
during 1918 and the shipment OF
meat during 1918.
The total value of all FOOD snip
ments to Allied destinations announced
to $1,40O,OOOOO0, all this food Delng
bought through or In collaboration
with the Food Administration. These
figures are all based on official reports
and represent food exports for tne
harvest year that closed June 30, 1913.
The shipments of meats and rats
(fncluding meat products, dairy prod-
ucts. vegetable oils. etc., to Allied des-
tipations were as follows:

to Allied destinations represent APP
proximately savings from our own
wheat bread.
"These figures, however, do not fniiy
convey the volume of the effort and
sacrifice made during the past year
by the whole American people. De-
spite the magnificent effort OF our agri-
cultural population In planting much
increased acreage in 1917, not only was
there a very large failure In wheat,
but also the corn failed to mature prop
er,y. and our corn Is our dominant crop.
II am sure" Mr.. Hoover wrote in
concluding his report "that all the
millions of our people, agricultural as
we'll as urban, who have contributed
to these results should feel very

anpreciably larger than the year be-
fore and particularly In hogs; they
were probably less. The increase IN
shipments Is due to conservation and
the extra weight Of animals added oy
our farmers.
The full effect Of these efforts began
to bear their best results In the last
half of the fiscal year, when the ex-
ports to the Allies were 2,lSS, loo'Voo
pounds, as against 1896, 5O0,OOO POUNDS

PREVENT HOG CHOLERA

The B. A. Thomas Hog Powder has
record of 50 per cent cures of hog
cholera. If you feed your hogs as di-
rected, you need never fear hog chol-
era nor any other hog disease And
the directions are very simple, just
about what you are doing, Plus a few
cents worth Of 3. A. Thomas Hog Pow
der in the feed twice a week.
Usually, though, Cholera gets in be-
lore we know it. Then it requires
close attention to each hog each hog
must be dosed-and if you will dose
them as directed, you will save better
than 80 per cent If you don't the b.

ing with its yerdmo The sound OF
firing had now increased to an omi
nous road as We passed Padgera Hill !
Turning the corner of shattered !
wall, we saw the Isonzo river Lying |
sahead and on the further side Gorizian |
rising in terraces with the huge battle
ments of the citadel towering on the |
right. The river looked about the |
width of the Potomac at Washington, !
bbut with swifter current from the
mountain feeders. Along the edge of
the river ran rows of shelltorn walls
with gaping windows This whole
front had been torn to pieces, and yet
many of the demolished remnants of
the buildings were occupied. and work
along the river wharves was preceding
To the left, as we approached the
river, stood out the palatial castle of
Count Coronini of Vienna, the close
personal friend of Emperor Francis Jo-
I seph up to his death, and the master Of
ceremonies of the imperial household.
III this castle had died King Charles \
and his body still repOses in the near
| by convent of st. Catherine. One o.
he loins of St Mark, which has cap
ped the entrance to the castle, was TAX
en- down by the Austrians before they
quit Gorilla and is now in the city mu
scum. 1t was an impressive sight to
see the fine castle through a vista Of
trees, with its parks and avenues, and
the italian flag flying above it.
The IsonZo river was crossed by the
wooden bridge which Italian engineers
built after all the old bridges had been
| blown UP. On one side lay the wreck
Of big pontoon. 1t was on pontcon
bridges that the Italians entered the
city, and this wreck was one Of the
remnants Of that crossing The big
railroad bridge was lying in a wreck
! from artillery fire. Further on was
the massive stone bridge with one of
its main arches blown to pieces Near
these bridges lie a number of impor-
tant paper mills, where paper is made
we're masses of ruin with a few tail
chimneys still standing among the de-
lris.
Gorilla itself was under the rain of
terrific bombardment, for the full force
of the great ensive was now only a
| few hours off. The cannonnade ran
the whole range of violence, from the
deep base rumble of monster guns up
to the staccatp rattle Of machine guns
which sounded like strings of big fire
crackers in a barrel crash of fall
ng walls could be heard every now and
Hthen as one Of the big missiles "arriv
.ad''-the familiar term used by those
who live with this shell-fre.
| And yet with the imminent danger,
many people still chung to their homes
and belongings with that same tenac-
! ity which makes the Vesuvian peas
ants cling to the mountain side when
the volcano is raging and threatening
/ , bury them. But most of these peo-
! pie on the streets are the poor who
could not get away, and the small
shop keepers who cannot afford to
abandon their goods. The big stores
are ali closed and the place has the
air of a deserted city, with only few
5tragglers bringing up the rear. Goriz
IA had 10000 people but only 5000 are
left and these make only a scattered
showing in the wide main street firing
ID on either side with its shell-torn
fronts. 1t was raining hard and this
1dded to the lugubrious spectacle.

POINTS THE WAY
The Statement of This Jerome Resi
 dent Will Interest Our Readers.

Our neighboring town, Jerome, points the way in the words of one of it's most respected residents:
 Thos. A. Miller, mgr. of furniture store, Box No. 295, Jerome, Ariz., says: "Doan's Kidney Pills are the only kidney medicine can depend up- on and they certainly are a great remedy. My kidneys were in a bad way. I have seen the time when I could hardly bend and when I did, it felt as though the muscles of my back snapped. Many time, my sight would become blurred and there seem ed to be a black screen before my eyes and everything seemed to be whirling around. When got out of bed mornings, l felt tired; just as if I hadn't had any sleep. A friend, knowing what bad shape was in told me about Doan's Kidney Pills and I used them. In very short time I felt fine"
