Saves Seventy Per Cent.

"With manure worth So ton, it is
essential that the whole amount be
conserved by hauling it right from
the barn to the field which is to go in
to corn next spring." Says Emil Troug
of the soils department. of the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin.
"This statement is not true for the
specialized farmer who has rough or
hilly land from which the manure
will wash off before planting time.
On the hilly farm the manure should
be carefully saved under sheds or in
manure pits and then used next
spring on acres sown to corn. 1t has
been estimated that at least one third
the value per ton Of manure is lost by
improper care. such as dumping the
fertilizer outside and allowing it to
remain there and leach over winter.
1.-The specialized farmer, such as the
truck gardener, can probably make
the best use Of the manure by com
posting it, The we'll rotted manure
of the compost pile will supply best
the requirements of the garden in the
spring."

SUGAR TESTED
MORAL FIBER
Doubters Declared Saving Sta
Piles Would Be Easy Compared
With Sacrificing Luxuries.
FIGURES SHOW RESULTS.
Americans Demonstrated Sturdy Sup
port Of War by Conserving for
the Benefit of the
Allies.

When figures began to show def
initely that the people of the United
States were actually reducing their
consumption Of foods needed abroad,
the United States Food Admins
tratiOn was told that 1t was COM
paratively easy to bring about conser-
walton of staple necessities, but that it
would be far more difficult to accom-
plish an actual decrease in the use of
luxuries. The doubters took sugar as
an example, and declared that it would
be practically impossible to bring our
consumption of sugar down to a point
that would meet only the food needs
of the people.
Now that demands upon ocean tom
mage will be lightened, European ma
tons will be able to go farther af1eId
for fOodStuffS, and will no longer be
entirely dependent for sugar upon
North American supplies. With the
stocks now in prospect, we will have
sufficient sugar to place this country
back upon normal consumption If the
present short nations in Europe are
not materially increased. If the Eu-
ropean ration is to be materially in
creased over the present low amount
1t can be only through the American
peoples making it possible by con-
tinued restriction to a greater or less
extent here.
The fact that the Food Administra-
ton has been able to relax the yolun-
tary sugar ration is in itself proof that
the ration of two pounds per person
per month was generally observed
throughout the country. This conser-
walton allowed the Food Administra-
ton to build up a reserve, and to tide
over the period of scarcity, until the
the new crops Of Louisiana cane and
beet sugar were ready for distribution.
The records Of the Food Admins
tration show that in July, August, Sep
TENDER and October 995,000 tons were
distributed. Normal consumption for
that period is 100000 tons. This
shows a definite, concrete saving Of
over 100000 tons. These figures APP
ply to sugar consumed on the table, in
the kitchen and in the various Indus
tries, and show conclusively that in
the homes and public eating places of
America, where 20 per cent. of all our
sugar is consumed, the sugar consump-
ton has been reduced by more than
one-third
In the four-month period begin
ming with July, this country normally
uses 100000 tons of sugar per month.
Last July 100000 tons entered into
distribution In August only 225,OO0
tons were distributed. In September
the figures showed $4,000 tons, and
then fell to 100000 tons in October.
There could be no more definite
proof that the American people have
given their loyal cooperation and sup
port of the war.

MEAT INCREASE
AT Time NEEDED
Producers Responded Nobly
When Demand Was Shown
to Them.
CATTLE AND HOG FIGURES
Government Justified in Pork Policy
Which Nov, Provides Chief SIP
ply to Meet Three Billion
Pound Fat Shortage.

In line with the general plan OF con-
servation formulated by the o. S. Food
Administration Immediately following
the entrance of the United States into
the war the contribution made by the
meat producers of this country to the
war program is Of particular signifi-
canoe. as it demonstrates the hearty
cooperation accorded the Food Ad-
ministration by the meat producers Of
the country.
According to reports of the Q. s.
Department OF Agriculture, there was
an increase in cattle OF 10,238,OOO head
and 12,441, 900 hogs, these figures COM
piled to January last. In the same
period there was decrease OF $4,000
head of sheep, but indications are this
decrease will show an increase follow
ing the latest reports
Since January / unofficial informa-
ton indicates an increase in hogs OF
not less than eight per cent. and not
more than fifteen per cent compared
with one year ago, with an increase in
average weight.
Following the request Of the Food
Administration for increase In hog
production for the fall of 1918 and the
spring of 1919 the increase may yield
not less than 1000, 100000 pounds
more Of pork products than We're
available last year. Without this In
crease the shipping program arranged
by Mr.. Hoover regarding animal food
products would have been impossible.
The dressed hog products during the
three months ending September 80.
1917, amounted to 003, 1921 900 pounds,
while for the same months of 1913 the
production was 1,277, $4,000 pounds,
an increase Of over 874, OOO, 900 pounds
for the quarter.
During the same period In 1917 in
spected slaughter records Of dressed
beef showed 1898, 100000 pounds as
against 1.454. 100000 pounds for the
three month period ending September
/, this year.
We must increase our meat ship
ments, especially our pork products,
to meet the added demands of the mil
lions liberated from German Oppres-
sion. And at the same time we must
look forward to the rehabilitation OF
the European meat herds. The policy
which guided our meat program in the
past year has been fully justified, for
only the heavy pork production which
it has brought about will enable us
even partly to satisfy the increased
demands on us- for the coming year.
There will be world shortage in fats.
and it is to the United States that Eu-
rope must look to supply its deficien-
cy At the same time there will con-
tinue to be heavy demands for beef
Owing to the limited refrigerator ship
ping capacity European imports Of
beef for some time will be limited
The United States, Australia and
Argentine will be able to maintain q
supply that will keep all available
freezer vessels operating at capacity.

ANSWERED LAST CALL
Death by Pneumonia Satur-
day After Short Illness.
Funeral Held Tues
day Afternoon.

A feeling of universal sadness pre-
vailed in Eagle River Saturday even
ing when the announcement of the
death of Mrs. j. E. Sullivan came
shortly after seven O'Clock.
Taken i'll with influenza two weeks
before, followed by pneumonia, her
condition was not deemed critical ow-
ing to her seemingly perfect state OF
health. An imperfect heart action
and other complications SET in and
Saturday her relatives we're appraised
that the end was near.
Lucille, only surviving daughter OF
Mr.. and Mrs. William Murphy, was
born in Eagle River, August ID, 1898,
and had spent her entire life in this
village. Her genial nature and warm
hearted disposition caused her to be
universally liked by young and old. An
accomplished singer, her services were
in much demand on all public occa-
sions and were freely rendered. In
this line of useful activity alone, she
will be greatly missed and regretted
She was married on April Fl, 1918,
to J. E. Sullivan, and after brief
wedding trip they resided at the home
of her parents until few months ago
when they began housekeeping. In
the absence of her husband she was
first taken i'll and went back home
where she passed away, and where
brief funeral services we're held at
400 Tuesday, conducted by Rev. WI.
Davies, of the Congregational church,
after which her remains were placed
in the cemetery to await another
Resurrection Day.
That her life, brief as it was, had
grown close to the hearts of everyone
who had known her was attested by
the exceptionally large display of flor
al tributes placed on her casket by
friends who extend deepest sympathy
to the husband, parents and brother
who survive her.

Don't forget to fasten the candles
securely to the tree if candles are
used. Also avoid placing them under
another branch.
Always have a wet sponge conven-
lent to the tree. A candle often burns
up too quickly, and the sponge could
be used to extinguish it.
Don't leave the tree until you are
sure the lights are all extinguished,
and never trust the work of extin-
gushing the lights to children.
Don't light the tree after it has
stood in warm room for three OF
four days. 1t becomes so dry it will

Don't trim the tree with cotton to

This applies particularly to those who
illuminate their trees with candles.
Don't light the trees with anything
but electric bulbs, if possible. Where
1t is impossible to use electricity never
leave the lighted tree alone and never
allow children in the room unless ac-
companied by groWn-up person.
Don't set the tree up near uphol~

Safety First.

Don't allow children to touch the
lighted tree.
Don't remove presents from the tree
while it is lighted.
Don't leave anything highly infiam
mable near the tree.
Don't set the tree up haphazardly.
Be sure it is securely fastened so it
will not tip over easily.
Don't blow candle out. The flame
might be carried against dry branch
and set fire to the whole tree.
Don't fasten any tinsel ornament
near any lights on the tree. II one
