AMERICAN SOLDIERS
EAT THEiEs own WEIGHT
IN FOOD EVERY 81 DAYS

Washington, Sept. 25.-Every Amer.
lean soldier fighting in France eats his
own weight in food every thirty-seven
days.
This statement, carefully compiled for
the United Press by the food admins
tration and the arm quartermaster S de-
partment, accepts official computation
thateaeh soldier eats on an average 43
pounds of food day and estimates give
the average Yankee fighters weight
at about 160 pounds.
1t gives some idea of the tremendous
shipping problem facing the allied gov
ernments as the American army grows
to vast proportions. 1t reveals that for
the 1,750,000 Yanks alleady embarked
from our shores, 2SO,000,000 pounds, or
100000 tons of foodstuffs must be
shipped them every thirty-seven days.

month Of June last, the United States
shipping to all allied countries ana neu-
trails was only 1871 ,427,OOO pounds of
foodstuffs--less than three times what
must go every thirty-seven days to the
army alone by next July.
Total food shipments have materially
decreased since, owing to the increase
of the American army and increased
demands for food for it. As a result
it becomes evident that the rationing
of neutrals is one of the greatest tests
before the government today. Not that

SMoTHERED TO DEATH.
Ground Slate, Pouring in from Crushing
Machine, Buried Hydeville Youth.

Hydeville, Dec. 49,. Harold, l6-year-
old son of Mr. and Mrs James West
more of this town, met shocking
death Dec. II at the plant of the Staso
Milling company in Castleton, where he
was employed, when he was smothered
in rock bin under the crushed rock
as it came from the grinder. There was
no eve witness to the accident and il is
impossible to determine how the boy
got into the bin.
Young Wetmore was at work near the
rock bin and was missed about 1850
o'clock. Search for him was immediate
IN started but the body was not found
until 10 o'clock when it was discovered
buried in the ground slate which the
company manufactures for use in the
production Of roofing and for other pur-
poses.
It is supposed that the boy lost his
balance and fell into the bin and that
the ground slate, which was pouring in
from the crushing machine, bore him
down and made his escape impossible.
Besides his parents he leaves three
sisters. Oleta, Ida and Mary, a brother
Clifford, and three halfsisters, Agnes
Mabel and Esther Wetmore. He was
member of the Hydeville boy scouts.
