MAKES HIS OWN SUGAR

Limited by the Food Administration
to forty-seven pounds of sugar a month
for bread-making, w. F. Pritts Of the
Pritts Baking Company, 901 Bannock
street. Denver, found way to make
his own sugar. Mr. Pritts is also head
of the bakery division of the Food Ad
ministration for Colorado.
He returned his sugar certificates to
the sugar division of the Food Admin
istration, effecting a saving of more
than 500 pounds of sugar a year right
there, and now Is willing to give his
recipe for sugar manufacturing to any
other baker who will communicate
with him
The sugar is produced out OF the
chemical reaction of barley malt on
corn starch and is a powerful sweet
ener. Here is the recipe in brief:
Moisten barley and let 1t sprout: :
dry by heat; break off the sprout:
make barley broth (malt): cool thor
oughly: make regular corn starch

SMASHING
HOME CARD CAMP PAIGN
DECEMBER z
Food Administration Postpones
Opening Date-New Home Gard
viii Prove Stuff We're Made OF.

The few people in America who
have seen the new 1919 Home Card of
the United States Food Administra
tion, giving the food saving program
for next year call 1t "the most sensa
tional statement yet Issued to the
American people by the Food Admin
istration.
II is printed in matter-of-fact black
and white 1t is couched in unemo-
tional language. II is one simple state
ment of fact after the other.
But It calls for the greatest sacri-
flee, the greatest conservation effort
ever asked voluntarily OF any nation
Here's Just hint:
To meet the promises that Herbert
Hoover made to the Allies at the re-
cent Allied Food Controllers confer
ence held In London, each person in
America must be responsible for the
exporting next year of $50 pounds OF
food stuffs. saved at his own table.
Hoover has promised that the 100.-
100000 OF us will save and ship 1850
900 tons of food to the Allies next year
half as much again as last year.
Naturally this immense saving of all
kinds of food; this tightening by half
again of the nations belt--can only be
accomplished IL every household does
its part.
Because of the "flu" the Home Gard
campaign has been postponed from DC
tober 81 to the week of December 2.
On the success of this compaign,
and the. carrying out of the Home
Cards suggestions after it is hung in
every kitchen, will depend the natiSn's
success in living up to its information
al obligations.
Churches. schools, lodges, 'four-min-
ute men," Women's Council of Defense
speakers, Neighborhood circles and
many other agencies will help make
the coming Home Card campaign
thrilling. smashing, decisive, victorious
part of winning the war.
Two hundred thousand cerds-ap-
proximately-will be given out in
Colorado
Until this campaign begins-delayed
as 1t is by the health conditions of
the state-the Food Administration
urges that food saving shall not slack
en-; that all foods be conserved to the
limit all the time; and especially, that
short rations of WHEAT, MEAT,
FATS AND SUGAR be served at home
so that our fighting force in France
may have full rations and full VIGOR
over there.

KEEP YOUR CHICK
EMS AT HOME!

New Food Administration requests
to poultry producers are to withhold
all immature chickens and mounting
hens from the market; to keep laying
hens and best pullets; and, instead OF
overcrowding the market during the
holiday season with poultry. to extend
the market into January and Febru
ary
Every pound of poultry gained BY
holding chickens till they are mature
adds that much more to a dwindline
meat supply.
The benefit to the world is more
food; the benefit to the consumer
fresh-killed poultry in mid-winter; the
benefit to the producer, a stabilized
market
The same recommendation urges
that young turkeys especially be al
lowed to live through the late fall bug
hunting season until hey get their
winter thatch of Gathers. At this
time they fatten quickly. so that a
young gobbier that weighs ten pounds
in October will weigh thirteen in De-
cember.

German Reply Fails
To Satisfy Uruguay
Official Statement Expected
Regarding Whether State
of War Exists

MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay. April 20
1t is rumored here to-day that the Ger
man reply to Uruguay's inquiry as to
whether the German government con-
sidered that state of war existed be-

dispatch on April IL that Uruguay,
which broke relations with Germany
last fall, had asked Berlin, through
Switzerland, if Germany considered
that state OF war existed with Uru-
quay, as stated by the commander of a
submarine which captured Uru-
guayan military commission bound for

New Risk Plan Covers
All Red Cross Workers

WASHINGTON, April 26.~-Red Cross
workers abroad who are not actually
enlisted in the army or navy, and of
whom, it is expected, there will be sew
eral thousand overseas .y the end of
the year, will be protected by insur-
ance under liberal plan arranged by
the War Council Of the American Red
Cross, covering life, accident and health
insurance.
The Red Cross has many branches
not covered by actual enlistment in the
army or navy. and therefore, not elig-
lble for government war risk insurance.
These branches principally are engaged
in civilian relief and hospital work in
the war zone. They include civilian ex-
ecutives, doctors, nurses, motor drivers
and other occupations.
The plan provides that all foreign
workers are to be given free of cost
81 900 life insurance on the term plan,
payable in event of death or at the
end of two years in event Of total and
permanent disability, and also accident
and health insurance providing for
weekly indemnity payment in case of
sickness or injury. Medical examina-
ltion is not required.

sides tried to complete the jury
which still lacks two men-the black
shoebrush hair of Andrytchine was
buried behind his book.
Court adjourned after brief session,
so that everybody could take part in

had to eat Cook County Jail rations to-
night, and they weren't any too we'll

A new venire of thirty men has been
summoned for Monday morning, and
from these it is hoped the jury will be

The I. w. W. attorneys are preparing
to introduce mass Of evidence relat.
