II am the great grandfather Porky

delightedly and proudly.

"No, of course not" said Perky Pig.

Brother Bacon has little sense, very
little, even less than the rest OF US
have, and that is saying quite a lot, for
none of us bother about being so ire

"What did you mean?' asked Pinky
Pigs mother.
II meant what l said," replied
Porky.
"But," said Mrs. Pig, 81 don't see
how you can blame Brother Bacon for
what he said. He repeated your own
speech after YOU"
"But he didn't get the right mean
ing, and he is stupid" said GRANDPA
Their Porky.
"Won't you explain it yourself?''
asked Miss Ham, "for I am puzzled
too.''
II didn't mean that I was a great
grandfather Of the pigs" said Porky
''as a regular great-grandfather.'

Pinky Pork.

the way it was intended to sound, ''but
that is not what I mean"
''Tell u.s." urged Miss Ham.
'They are trying to save pork-the
people are. They have begun to ap-
preciate me. They say they must
have one day upon which they will
not eat pOrk-s0 as to save on valu-
able creature like myself and my FAM
iy."
"There's nothing to that at ALL
said Miss Ham.
"What do you mean?" squealed
Porky Pig angrily.
"You're name may be Porky," said
Miss Ham, "but we're all very nearly
related-we pigs. And what is for
you Is for US. So, the day is for all of
us and not only for you. Do you sup
pose they would say that they could
have one kind of pig meat and not
another? OF course not. They ap-
preciate the whole family, and know
we must be saved for the good Of the
land. But it's splendid to hear that
we have a day of our own.'
Eyes, a porkless day." said Porky,
"and it makes me very happy"
ITO be sure" said Miss Ham, ':for
It is an honor pigs never expected to
have a day named after them, and to
have one every week given up to saw

And all the pigs grunted and sQuealed
proudly.

WEEKS FOOD FACTS
EIGHTEEN MILLION POUNDS OF
SUGAR FOR CANNING LAST
THREE MONTHS

The first years work of the United
States food administration cost the
government less than two cents for
every person in the United States. It
may be safely said that it saved dol
lars instead Of cents in the cost Of liv-
ing for everybody.
The sugar division of the federal food
administration for Minnesota issued
certificates for 100000 pounds Of sug-
ar for canning purposes in Minnesota in
July, August and September. This in
dicates the use Of 25,OoO0O0 pounds Of
sugar year for home canning in Min
nesota, enough to preserve 60,000,000
quarts Of fruit or 25 quarts for every
person in the state.
~ believe,' says Herbert c. Hoover,
1--WE can bring this dreadful business
(war), to an end if every man, woman
and child in the United States tests
every action every day and hour by the
one touch stone-does this or that con-
tribute to winning the war;" Serve
by saving!
One slice Of bread wasted every day
in every home in the United States
makes a loss Of 100000 bushels of
wheat or 456,250,O00 pound loavcs a
year. Our waste of these things is one
reason why prices are high.
TO eat more than will lactually sat-
isfy one 3 bodily needs is to waste food.
1t is as much the duty Of the consum-
er to eat less and save this waste as it
is the duty Of the farmer to produce
more.

Best Material for Spjints.

Galvuniz>d wire netting is claimed
to be much superior to wood as ma
terial for surgical splints. 1t is
strong, light in weight, non-absorbent

tempered that it can easily be pressed

In China every member Of family
is responsible for order in that family
and every inhabitant of city is joint

by the Berlin newspapers Il few days

that more than 400 couriers had been
employed by NJ. JofIe. the Russian am

had been in Berlin.

MED the charges. but the accidental"
