HINTS FOR w. S. S. CAMPAIGN
Worker Gives Suggestion to Make
Pledge Week a Success.

Minnesota can exceed her quota of
SAT 100000 In the War Stamp Pledge
Week drive beginning Thursday,
June s by observing the following
hints. said prominent worker:
Aiding the w. 8. S. campaign Ia
giving help to the Allied cause and
to U. 8. soldiers;
Buying stamps is mailing a plank
in the nations ultimate victory over
the enemy;
Pledging purchases to be made
throughout the year means support
for those engaged in forever putting
down a regime that glories in the
murder of women, children and other
civilians;
Creating interest on the part of
others to buy w. S. s. is helping to
build monuments for those heroes
wns have died and been wounded In
fighting for YOUR protection;
He who does not pledge $50 as a
minimum for each person dependent
upon him is not helping America to
make the world . safe place to live
In;
You can lend a helping hand to
those who are today fighting YOUR
BATTLES in the front line Of trench
es by buying or pledging to buy your
FULL QUOTA OF WAR SAVINGS
STAMPS. This applies to every man,
woman and child in every township,

WAR STAMPS TO
HAVE BIG drive
June 6 Is Opening Day for Min
nesota Pledge Week for
Their Purchase.
GOING over THE TOP"
Director Culver Confident That Loyal
ty Of People Will Bring oversub-
scrlptien of States Quota Of
1900, 900.

Director D. 8. Culver of the Mime
sofa War Savings Committee today
set aside the week starting June
9Th and ending on June 18th,
as Minnesota pledge week
for the purchase of war savings
stamps. In making the announce.
ment, he evinced confidence that the
loyalty Of people in this state will be
manifested by pledging themselves to
make purchases during the balance
of this year which will result in over
subscribing the states quota of SAT-
000, 1000.
All county chairmen are now pre-
pairing for the drive that will soon
start. In messages sent from state
Headquarters In the Metropolitan
bank building. Minneapolis. a few
days ago, sub-chairmen were asked
the probabilities of their respective
counties going over the top" in the
coming drive. Practically all replied
that they expected to exceed the
amounts allotted to their counties.
During Pledge week all citizens in
Minnesota will be asked to pledge the
purchase Of War Savings Stamps dur
ing the balance of 1913 on q minimum
basis of $40 per CAPITA" said Mr..
Culver today. "This does not mean
that each Is to be asked for cash sub
scriptions. Minnesota must raise her
$47,000,000 quota during tho year and
the present amount, something lees
than 100000 does not make Z very
good showing.
so optimistic are reports coming
In from the various county chairmen
that 1t has convinced us a great ma
jority of counties will not only secure
pledges for their required quotas, but
will quite likely exceed their allot-
ments."
County chairmen are already add
ing to the personnel Of their cam
paign committees with the expecta-
ton of making . hundred per cent
showing during the big thrift stamp
drive. Several recently have visited
headquarters here in an effort to de-
rive new ideas and straighten out
minor details SO the work during June
will go along without q single hitch.
Vice Director ]. H. Meyering, head
ing the sales forces, said the purpose
Of the campaign Is not solely to ask
immediate cash purchases. On the
contrary, he explained, the pledges to
be made during the week from
June to Is, are for w. g.. 8. pur-
chases throughout the year. These
will probably be on monthly basis
to extend through the coming months
In equal portions.
"The purpose OF the government In
inaugurating its War Savings Stamps
sales is to encourage thrift" said Mr..
Meyering. THAT means that citizens
can save from unnecessary expendi-
lures enough money to buy their
quota Of savings stamps. II all do
that the campaign in Minnesota will
be . great success"

ALLIED FOOD SHIPMENTS

A general idea Of the quantity of
food sent to European allies by the

January 1, 1918. is given by figures
just announced by the o. S. Food Ad-
ministration. In that period the Unit
ed States has furnished complete year.
ly rations for 57,1O0,933 people. In
addition there was enough extra pro-
tein to supply this portion Of the diet
for p, 1914 $50 additional men.
The total export of wheat and wheat
-four to the three principal allies is
equivalent to about 1884, 600, 600 bushels.
Pork exports for the 31z years amount
ed to almost 100000, 900 pounds. Ex-
ports Of fresh beef totaled 443, 484 400
pounds. The amount OF food exported
to Russia is negligible compared with
that sent to the western allies.

Geranium, mignonette, heliotrope

They especially dislike the odor Of

According to a French scientist flies
have intense hatred for the color blue.
Rooms decorated In blue will help to
keep out the flies.
Mix together one tablespoonful Of
