Opportunities in Agriculture
Greater Than Ever.

j. A. James of the agricultural edu-
cation department of the College Of
Agriculture has had calls this spring
for men to fill at least 500 diff rent
positions He is of the opinion that
the demand for teachers of agric ultu e
in high schools is SO great that it can
not possibly be filed unless men and
women who know the farm and who
have had scientific training will add a
course in agriculture to their farm eX-
perience and prepare to carry on the
work of better agriculture in the sec
ondary schools.
"Probably one third of the agricul-
Gural teachers are already in the ser
vice, and many more will be called he
says. Their places can be filled next
year only by those who add a summer
session course to the other IA a hing
they have had. Salaries are mounting
TO meet the advance in living.
"In addition, 10000 Wisconsin boys
and girls in organized club work nee >
leaders. One summer school course is
arranged especially for club leaders,
and other courses are designed for the
teachers who wish to learn more OF
agriculture in order to coduuct the
clubs in their own schools"
The summer session course at the
University Of Wisconsin opens June "a
for period of six weeks. Teachers or
persons qualified to teach will be in
terested in the outline of agricultural
courses which Mr.. James will send up
on request

my OPPORTUNITY TO HELP VIM

LAS long as men go to the front at
the risk of being shot," writes Lloyd
H. Nelson, New Jersey farmer in a
letter to the U. S. Food Administra-
ton, sit is clearly my duty to risk all
l possess. 1t is my duty to take full
risk in planting as many extra acres
as my means will permit This | am
doing in 1918.
Having leased two extra farms,
propose making this year the supreme
effort of my life. If | make a good
profit, it will be fully earned If l but
make expenses and produce four times
as much food as last year, it will be
my opportunity to give strength to
give courage to help win. l am plan
ming to farm to the extreme limit.
Zone city man last year spent his
half holidays helping a farmer-taking
his pay in supplies such as potatoes,
vegetables and fruits. This plan COM
bines recreation with production and
should prove a popular form of war
work"

Success With Substitutes

To use the substitute flours success
fully is a greater necessity this sum-
mer than ever before, now that the
supply of wheat flour is still further
reduced. The home economics depart
ment has found out through expert
ments with the substitutes, many of
them the results of questions from
housekeepers, these facts concerning
the substitute fiours;
l. Combinations of substitutes pro-
duce more satisfactory results than
does a single substitute. Corn, oaNs
and barley -four is particularly good
combination.
?. Soda added to barley bread dough
in the proportion of teaspoon soda to
cups of barley flour will destroy the
bitter, acid taste usually called the
barley taste"
3. One substitute bought in % or so
pound quantities is likely to spoil, Two
pound and 5 pound lots and more
variety are suggested
4. Flours and meals stored in cool.
dry, well ventilated place keep better.
Or they may be stored in air tight tin
cans such as coffee cans and tin cracker
boxes
5. Batters made of the substitute
hours are often thinner than the wheat
flour batters. If the measurements
have been followed the product will be
satisfactory,
6 Substitute fours vary just as
wheat lours do. Brands put out by
different firms vary slightly and be-
have somewhat differently. The house
keeper should learn how to use given
brand and thereafter purchase that
brand.

HOOVER INSISTS WHEAT
SAVING MUST CONTINUE

Dismayed by the reports spreading
thru the country that there is no lon
ger necessity for the conservation of
wheat, Herbert Hoover has sent the
following telegram to contradict them:
Reports have been circulated that
food administration officials state that
further wheat conservation is not nee.
essary. No statement of such a charac,
ter has ever been issued. The actual
position is that our supplies until har.
vest allow home consumption of APP
proximately one-third of normal if we
are to maintain allied supplies. The
actual position is that in farmers
hands and storage we had at the be.
ginning of May 100000 bushels of
wheat to carry us for approximately
three months or with an early harvest
perhaps two weeks shorter. Our nor.
mal consumption for three months
would be 120,OO0,000 bushels, not al
lowing the allies anything"

universal saving, so that more man
power and material may be available

that this be done as nearly as possible
through membership in War Savings
Societies.
Pursuant to the above proclamation
of the President and that of the Gov

has been designated as National War
Savings Day. On this day. all adult
citizens will be called upon to meet and

FOOD REGULATION A SUCCESS
AND A BENEFIT.

When the British Food Controller
undertook to curtail food consumption
in hotels and restaurants last April,
and to reduce the costs of meals to
customers, the British hosts limited
darkly at the ruination of their bust
nesses, and declared that the keeping
of a food register involved accounting
detail which was an insuperable task.
Now, ten months later, it is shown
that regulation has been a success.
Where 10 to II ounces of uncooked
meat were formerly allowed per meal
for each customer, the quantity has
been cut down to ounces each at
lunch and dinner, with 2 ounces for
breakfast and even less meat would
involve no hardship. Accounting was
troublesome at first, but the hotel and
restaurant men now admit that infor.
nation secured has been of great ben
eft to them in a systematic conduct
of their business. Where they for
merly ran in haphazard fashion, it is
now possible to adjust supplies to
probable consumption and effect great
economies. Waste has been almost
entirely eliminated and the wider cost
of food counterbalanced, thus ena-
bling hotels to maintain old prices
and hold their customers. If the Pub
lie Meals Register required in war
times were abolished most proprietors
would continue something of the kind.

TOTAL ABSTINENCE
FROM WHEAT

The war has been "sold to the
American people. The German drive
and the thought of our own boys in
the thick of the fight have accom-
plished that. From all over the coun-
try are now coming reports of pledges
of total abstinence from wheat. Total
abstainers' clubs started in Mount
Gilead, Morrow County, Ohio. The
movement covers the Nation. The
same spirit is shown as that reflected
in the Bible words eff meat cause my
brother to offend, I will eat no meat
while the world standeth." Patriotic
Americans are now saying, eff wheat
is necessary to perpetuate all / hold
dear, l will eat no wheat until those
things are secured and guaranteed"

THE PASSWORD
"WAR"

1--WE have got to reach the
place, each one of us, where we
define every decision in our
lives as an act of war policy.
Everything that we do, plan,
eat, wear, must be analysed and
measured from one single point
of view-will it contribute to the
carrying on of the war, or will it
contribute to its prolongation?
There is no other thing in the
world for US but to define every
thing in our lives as acts Of mil
itary necessity or policy"

Consumers Limited in Use.
In order to insure a sufficient supply
of sugar for home canning, manufac.
turers of non-essentials and ordinary
household consumers are limited in
their purchase of sugar. Manufacturers
of non-essentials, such as soft drinks,
gums, and confectiOneries, are allowed
only 80 per cent of the amount of
sugar they used last year. Housewives
in town or city may buy not more than
pounds of sugar at one time, and buy
ers from the country may purchase not
more than 10 pounds at once.
Certificates for Home Gamers.
A certificate system has been put
into effect permitting purchases Of %
pounds to the housewives for canning
and preserving. Families are not to
purchase a La ger supply than will be
required for this use. The certificate
blank which the housewives must fill
out in buying large amounts of sugar
for canning is given to the grocers by
Mr.. Magnus Swenson, Food Admin
strator for Wisconsin:
Il hereby declare to the United
States Food Administration that have

pounds Of sugar for my use for pre-
serving and canning purposes only,
and | agree not to order sugar from

On each Monday, the certificates
signed during the previous week must
be mailed by the merchants to the
County Food Administrator.
A grocer has permission to refuse to
honor a certificate if he is convinced
that the applicant does not intend to
use the sugar asked for in canning or
preserving. In case of dispute, the
town or county administrator can be
questioned.

FINISHING HINTS

Have you experienced difficulty in
putting a crochet edge on heavy lin
en- or other material when making
luncheon set or similar piece of work.
There are several ways of making
this an easy finish One is to ma
chine stick around with a coarse nee
die and no thread. This leaves large
holes through which the crochet hook
may easily be inserted. Another way
is to machine stitch close to the edge
and catch the crochet hook through
the stitches. Still another method is
to buttonhole with shallow stitches
and catch the crocheting to the but
tonholeing. The last and probably
the best way on a straight edge is to
pull two threads about three or four
threads in from the edge. This
leaves an open space through which
the hook will easily pass.

THE WEATHERPROOF COAT

For the woman who must breast the
elements and travel under rain as
well as shine, there were Seen in the
shops some extremely smart models
which are known as the weatherproof
walking coats. These generally boast
the big collar that will open or close
at will and the large pockets and de-
tachable belt, and have the acvan-
tage of being rainproof over the other
coats that arg like them in appear
ance. They are carried nut in sew
eral materials and are sure to prove
popular.
Clothes are necessity and the wise
woman will buy not many but enough
and economically as well This year
the fashions are such that it is quite
possible to obtain garments that will
look fitting for several occasions. And
these combinations styles in suits and
coats are the result of careful plan
ming and experience of the fashion
makers and are a boon to those of us
who must of necessity dress on a
small income.
