Great Wheat Stocks
Isolated.

It's the shortage in ships that
is putting the Allies and the
United States on wheat rations.
Great stocks of wheat are iSo-
lated in India, and Australia. At
great sacrifice in ship space and
use the Allies are forced to Sc
cure some wheat from Argentina.
On January l, Australia had
stored 1O0,000000 bushels of
wheat that was ready for ex-
port-but there were no ships.
Then came the new crop with
an eXportable surplus of $4,000
600 bushels. Now Australia has
unfortunately 1S0,000,000 BUSH
els waiting for ships.
India, at the same time, had
IO.OOO000 bushels of wheat
stored for export. During April
5O.OOO000 bushels more out of
the new crop will be added to
the pile.
Argentina closed the last ship
ping season with 100000
bushels of wheat left in the
stock available for export. The
~
new crop will add 135,OOO,OOO to
the left over.
1t is not a problem that the
wheat does not exist in the
world-it is entirely a problem
of shipping, which has thrown on
America the obligation of dlvid.
ing our stock with the Allies.

MORE farmers

Piles Of tens, hundreds and thou

agricultural areas under cultiva-

ates, has put forth far reaching
efforts in colonization for many
years, and at this time maintains
at Union Pacific System head
quarters, Omaha, Nebraska. a
| perfectly organized Colonization
and Industrial Bureau, the pur :
pose of which is to multiply ag-
ricultural and industrial units as
rapidly and as effectively as pos,
sible. To bet accomplish this
purpose, it needs the whole
hearted and general support Of
the public: of farmers already
happily established in Union Pa
cifc System territory, of dwell
ers in towns and cities. Of trav-
ellers and anyone who has the
well-being of the country and its
citizens genuinely at heart, and
who, with a modicum Of common
foresight could fail to have such
interest?
Cooperation for the increased
population of agricultural sec.
tions can be accomplished in ma.
ny ways:
Ifyou are established as an ag-
riculturist in Oregon Short Line
territory. and you personally
know Of good acreage in your
vicinity available for purchase
or settlement, write US and tell
US all about it. If you have
friends in the east who are agri-
culturists but who desire to
change their locations. and you
cannot evactly convince them of
the advantages of making the
change let us have their names
and addresses; maybe we can
help them to a favorable location
The same cooperation may be
accomplished by city or town
residents or any one.
One of the difficulties of the
ACREAGE farmer in seeking loca-
ton is to know exactly where he
can secure the kind OF a farm he
wants, either for purchase or
settlement. People on the ground
know hest about local opportuni-
ties.
Keep in mind the we'll being OF
the Union Pacific System is the
well-beiug of your territory. and
the well being of your territory
is the well-beiug of yourself.

in that code of traditions fostered by
the British navy and so admirably de-
veloped by the airmen.
The outstanding feature of the air
combat is the continuous gallantry and
audacity of the British pilots. One
youthful veteran, attacked by q fight
ing formation of Boches, fired into one
machine, which turned over on its back
and spun down put Of control. Then
he turned his attention to another and
fired 200 rounds INTO it. Suddenly 1t
went into a spin and crashed.
Out with a battle flight of our own
the following day he added another
German to his bag. Then, to make full
measure that day, he spun lower and
fired an observation balloon. In the
afternoon he finished the aggregate of
four enemy airplanes and a balloon In
three days.
Two British machines photography
bound ran up against half a dozen of
the enemy's. Strictly speaking, theirs
was a noncombatant craft, but, an
noyed at the interruption, they laid
about the enemy with their machine
gun to such effect that in a short time
they had knocked out two of their at
tackers. The rest then flew away and
the Britons returned in peace to their
picture making.
Recently our bombers achieved a d.
rect hit on a German army kinema
with results which, according to a pris-
oner's story, were disastrous. Immedi-
ately the Germans retaliated by bomb
ing our hospitals and stretcher bearers

was optional. Sweeping low from the

1885, $40 pieces of parcel post and news
papers The letters weighed 81 tons
and the parcels and papers In excess
of 113 tons. By reason of the bulki-
ness of the mail, this shipment took up
in excess of 1900 cubic feet of space
on the transport. This means a slice
of the ships cargo space 100 feet long,
10 feet high. and II feet wide. The
715,9SO letters went into 346 sacks but

MAIL TO

the pieces of parcel post and papers
required 1882 sacks. When this rSil
was unloaded at n French port the let
tiers filled completely one of the small
French cars, which are half the size of
the American mail cars, but the par
GELS and papers required a train of 10
cars.
Waits for Days on Cars.
The mail that is unloaded from the
ships must frequently wait days at
the port before cars can be spared
from the heavily burdened railroads
In France to move the mail.
When the United States army pos
tai service was first inaugurated mail
reached all of the camps in the coun-
try in one to two days, according to
distance and train connections. Today
mail, by reason of its vast volume and
the heavy demands on the railroads,
frequently takes six days to reach Gen.
eral Pershing's headquarters.
According to a report from New
York and Chicago of some Of the con
tents of this parcel post matter to the
troops, a 12-hour inspection of the par
Gel post as 1t was being searched for
inflammables and explosives disclosed,
among other things, 1912 boxes of
matches, 361 cans Of solidified alcohol,
224 cigar lighters Gall of these of the
greatest menac to the safety of the
ship, 1,24S cakes, 3,S1S packages of
candies, 1882 bars of chocolate, be-
sides countless scores Of useful, as
we'll as useless, articles, including
a bouquet of artificial flowers, a baby
outfit, and a bottle of whisky.
The question this state Of affairs
raises is: Why send apples and or
anges that become bruised In the long
transit and rot in the stuffy holds of
the ships, when the recreation rooms
Of the Young Mems Christian associa-
ton and other welfare organizations
serve fruit fresh from Italy and Spain,
that takes up 10 cargo space; why
send cakes and candies and chewing
gum, when the post canteens sell II
varieties of cakes and cookies, fresh
baked in France. at American prices,
or a bare shade higher; why try to
send across vast quantities of matches.
which %endanger the ship and which is

Two-thirds Of the articles found in
a 12-hour inspection tour when work
ing the soldiers parcel post are on
General Pershing's canteen list and
sold in retail quantities to the soldiers
at practically wholesale prices.
The question will have to be ans
wered by the relatives Of the soldiers,
