SEND OUT NOTICE
OF NEW FOOD RULES
State Food Administration Officials
Point Out Need of Saving for the
Allies This Year.

MONTPELIER, Oct l5.-The new
conservation program for public eating
places effective Oct. q is announced by
Frank H. Brooks, federal food admins
traitor for Vermont. Pamphlets descrip
tive of this program will be sent to pro-
prietors of hotels and restaurants by the
United States food administration, but
il is important that the general public
should be familiar with this new program
which must be carried out if America
is TO provide sufficient food for the rap
idly increasing American army in Europe
and for the allied armies and the allied
civil population during this year.
In emphasizing the necessity for con-
scientious conservation during this year,
Mr. Brooks said:
During the year ending July |, 1919,
the United States must ship for the
American army, the allied civilians and
armies. and certain neutrals who are de-
pendent upon America l7.550,000 tons
of food stuifs, which is 100000 tons
more than was shipped during the year
ending July |, r9lS Directed by Presi-
dent Wilson to assure the allies that in
this common cause we eat at common
table, Mr. Hoover promised the allied
IOOu conference liidt AbbtNNl Nhtlt al
lied war-food program called for from
America we should fulfill. He told them
that. We. by the economy of our peo-
Pile shave the reserves in food to supply
all necessities.
ITO redeem this promise of the Ameri-
can people made through Mr.. Hoover the
proprietors of public eating places must
undertake in many particulars stricter
program than last year. 1t is estimated
that nearly 100000 people eat at pub
| lie eating places And the food consump-
tion in these places is larger than in the
average home. Hence in the new Home
Card to be issued for American house
holds on Oct % and in the new program
for public eating places now being SEN
out, together comprising Victory Con
servaton Program, the food administra
tion emphasizes the absolute necessity o
a further reduction of the consumption
and waste of food products. What il
needed is direct reduction of consump
ton of all foodstuffs with emphasis OF
the staples"

BUY BONDS, SAYS GRAHAM.
Help Crumple Germany and Bring About
Unconditional Surrender.

MONTPELIER, Oct. Ex-Governor
Graham today issued the following Lib
erty loan appeal to the people of Yer
mont:
Nermonters have oversubscribed three
Liberty loans and our own boys are daily
bringing in dividends on the western
front. Now more than ever is it vital to
ensure beyond doubt or hazard the ex-
pected victory for world liberty and Sc
curity. This is the climax for the home
army. Let Vermont distinguish herself
by generous oversubscription to the
Fighting Fourth" and the dividends will
be fourfold. Crumple the German morale
and obtain unconditional surrender by
whole armies and fleets of bonds. Our
banks are patriotic. They will lend to
you to lend to your government.
In plundered France and Belgium
starvation aided epidemics and Huns in
flicted outrage instead of extending the
care of friends We must all fight with
Fighting Fourth Liberty bonds, TO be i'm
mediately victorious and TO offset years
of colossal devastation and suffering.

Everyone knew that Lieut.. Thorleigh
and his pretty young wife had failed to
agree during their few years of married
life, but no one quite liked to ask him
where she was living during his last
months of training in this country. So
when an innocent newcomer inquired
pontblank where she was, there was a
rather intense moment before he said,
calmly
MY wife is in France
What is she doing!" was demanded
further
Fighting" he answered calmly
Fighting" everyone exclaimed
Well he replied, perhaps she isn't
actually fighting, but I'm sure she's quar-
relng. -Harper's Magazine.

ers."

Philadelphia, Jan. ESPECIALLY
Eddie Burns, the Philly catcher,
likes baseball so we'll that he plays
the game through the winter when
the regular season has closed, News
comes from California that Eddie is
catching for a ball team there, many
of whose members are big league
players who don't seem able to get
enough baseball.
Burns and his teammates have
been playing frequently and most of
their performances have been exhi-
bitiOn games as for example their
recent contest with Yeoman Duffy
Lewis Mare Island ball team. Lewis
is anxious to develop a team at Mare
Island that will walk away with the
championship in the navy baseball
league and practice games against
such teams as the big league ALI
stars on which Eddie Burns is catch
er, should help Lewis jackies quite
Il bit. Duffy's bunch took a severe
beating, however, in the recent meet
ing with Burns and his crew.
On the same team with Burns are
Al Walters of the New York Yanks,
Harry Heilman of the Tigers, Ping
Bodie of the Athletics, Bohne of the
Cardinals and Ruether Of the Gin
Reds. The occasional games
the men play keep them limbered up

declared in a recent letter that he
will show up in spring all ready
for the regular season.
