CORN WILL WIN
DEMOCRkCY'S WAR
Americas Greatest Cereal Crop
Is Now Moving to
Market.
MAlNSTAY IN NATIONS CRISIS
Surplus Wheat of the United States
Has Been Sent to Famine Threat
ened Europe.

Americas great corn crop, exceed
ing 5000 GOO, 900 Bushels, win save the
worlds food situation. officials Of the
United States food administration be-
lieve.
Corn is the nations best food cereal,
housewives are beginning to realize.
II contains all the elements needed to
keep the body In a state Of health and
when used according TO the scores of
tried recipes, especially when COM
blned with an added portion of oil or
fat, will sustain life indefinitely. In
dian warriors in colonial days lived on
parched corn alone for many days at u
time, and at Valley Forge parched
corn was at times the sole ration OF
the Continental soldiers.
Owing to transportation difficulties
caused by the war the corn crop moved
more slowly to market this year than
ever before. Now, however, the cereal
IL reaching the millers and consumers.
In the meantime the nations surplus
wheat has been sent to Europe.
Today there are approximately 30
bushels Of corn for every American.
This quantity Is greater by five bush
els than In former years.
Corn has become the nations main
stay In the crisis Of war.
Just as this cereal saved the first
American colonists from famine on
many occasions. just as it served us n
staple food during the War of Tie Rev
olutlon and during the Civil War, King
Corn has again come TO the front In
the nations battle with autocracy.
Corn meal is finding greatly increns-
ed use In the making of ordinary white
bread. Hundreds of housewives and
many of the larger bakers are mixing
20 per cent. corn meal with wheat
Hour to make ieaycned bread. This
kind Of a mixture is worked ana baked
In the same recipes and with the same
methods that apply TO straight wheat
bread.
Corn bread-using corn meal entire
Jy-is gaining II greater popularity
than ever before. Housewives are
coming to realize that every pound uf
| wheat saved In America means n pound
of wheat released for shipment to tho
! nations with which America IL associ.
! atcd in the war.
There are n score of corn products
that today possess unusual importance
| for Americans. Corn syrup for sweet
ening orr cakes and huckwheat cakes
and for use In the kitchen instead OF
grnnuialed sugar Is n of the leading
products made from corn.
Corn oil. excellent for frying and for
every otler purpose filled by salad oils
is appearing on the market In larg,
quantities. 1t comes from The germ OF
the corn.

EEE MONTANA STORES co. OF
WHITEHALL TAKE OVER BUSI-
NESS At REDSTONE.

Gus w. Vail, promoter Of the Mon
tana Stores Co., Of Whitehall, Mon
tana, called at this Office Wednesday
morning and informs the Producers
News taat he has completed organiz-
lng at Red5tone, Montana, having
secured @ membership Of 10 mem
bors in the above project in q cam
2aig1 lasting just eleven days, and
Tuesday the organization meeting
was held and the necessary officers
elected and preliminary arrangements
completed and the store was opened
for business Wednesday morning.
Mr.. Vail made this deal for the
farmers and consumers of Redstone
and vicinity through the Northwest
ern Jobbers Credit Bureau Of 81.
Paul, taking over the stock and fix
lures of the Home Store, formerly
owned by Thomas Kane of that
place.
The work that Mr.. Vail is doing
for the farmers and consumers Of
this territory cannot be fully appre-
ciatcd at this time for the plans of
this cooperative buying end selling
enterprise is so extensive that a per-
son has to make a study of the pro-
position and analyze the principles
Of the proposition in detail in order
to understand the proposition.
It is reported that the opposition
to the enterprise among the business
men of Redstone is very bitter and It
will take careful management at this
point of the part of the Montana
Stores Co., as the opposition will do
all in their power, not to encourage
this enterprise, but to discredit it and
throw as many obstacles in the way
of its success as possible and each
member should study the proposition
until he understands it thoroughly
when it seems sure he will then sticx
and win.
There is always a certain element
that fights anything new, especially
when the new way or method of do
ing things is going to interfere with
their profits or future success.

Former DooIey Boy
Is Reported Missing

Dooley Sun-The casualty list in
last Sundays papers contained the
name OF Elmer Walstad, stating he
was missing in action. Elmer has
been in the thickest of the fighting
for some, and while it is possible he
may be a prisoner, it is feared by his
many friends that he has made the
supreme sacrifice. Elmer was for
several years employed at the Geo.
A. Wright hardware store, where he
made many friends by his genial and
accommodating ways. From here he
went to Opheim, where he engaged
in the hardware business with Messrs.
Bertelson and Wright. Elmer was
among the first of the drafted boys
to go to Camp Lewis and sailed soon
after for France.

JOE BURNHAM MAKES
SUPREME SACRIFICE
Soldier Who Wrote Splendid Letter
Published By This Paper Report
ed Killed in Action

According to an item which ap-
peared in the Dooley Sun last week,
Corl. Joseph Burnham, IN" Co., 26tn
Inf, A. E. F., who wrote the inter-
esting letter which appeared in this
newspaper in the issue Of September
18th, is reported as having made his
supreme sacrifice for the United
States of America and for democra-
cy. The item follows:
"FIarry Bu1nham received word
from his frother Rash that he had
received official notice of the death
Of their brother, Joe, while in action
in France. Joe enlisted at Williston,
n. D., nine months ago."
This brave soldier gave his life to
help rid the earth Of the despots and
tyrants. He fought bravely and died
a hero, like many hundreds Of thous-
ands Of other boys from all over the
world, who have done their bit in
7rs great struggle. The news Of his
death thrills US as we write this ar
ticle and we wonder how pany more
similar reports will come to be chron-
icled in this newspaper, of Sheridan
county boys, before this great fight
is over. We hope not many. It
brings the terrible war close to our
homes and we can appreciate Uncle
Sarl's call for assistance to the ex-
tent Of lending all We possibly can
spare for the fourth Liberty Loan
which opens tomorrow. The more we
give, TIRE sooner this terrible strug-
cLe will be over and fewer such re
ports as this will reach US.

it is duty as well as his privilege to

share of the total Of the county. This
amount was arrived at by the Coun-
tv Executive Committee after due
consideration to population, crop cor
ditions and amount subscribed in pre-
vious issues. There has already

exhibits nicely arranged.
The sheaf and threshed grains,
seeds, grasses and vegetables, were
Of greater variety than of any pre-
vious year, and it is conceded that
there were more exhibits on the
grounds. L. S. Olson captured first,
second and third prizes on everything
exhibited from this section of the
county. If the county fair had been
held before the State fair, it is be-
lieved that Olson would have taken
every premium and blue ribbon all
the way down the line.
Besides the exhibits there were
games, sports and races to keep the
visitors in good fram of mind. Jack
Duggan of Plentywood, with "Mutt's
Special" fliver, was first in a five
mile race with Poplar car. The
second day, Duggan was in a ten
mile race with Billy Donhue of Gull
bertson, and car from Poplar, but
Jack lost on account of some engine
trouble while on the first lap in the
start on the half mile track. The
Poplar car won the 10-1nile race.
The Red Cross sale netted large
sum of money for the Poplar chapter
which will be used for the best cause
in the world.
