SAVE 100000 BUSHELS
OF WHEAT. THAT FORMERLY
WAS LOST IN THRESHlMG
Farmers, Urged by Food Administra.
ton, Provide Seven Extra Loaves
Of Bread for Every American.

By adopting cleaner threshing meth
DDS and by literally combing harvest
fields to gather grain formerly vast
ed, threshermen and farmers of the
United States this year saved fully
100000 bushels Of wheat, estimated
as equivalent to about seven one-pound
loaves of bread for every person in
the country. This result, accompanied
by corresponding savings of barley,
oats, rye and other grains, is shown by
reports from 33 grain states to the o.
S. Food Administration. Other states
although not prepared to furnish def
Mite figures Of conservation in the
grain fields, report greatly reduced
harvest losses.
This rural food saving achievement,
accomplished in scarcely six months
time, was III direct response to re-
quests by the Food Administration.
which asked farmers and thresher,nen
to reduce harvest losses from about
81 per cent.-the estimated average
in normal times-to the lowest posi-.
BILE minimum. Country grain thresh.
ing committees carried into every
grain growing community the official
recommendations for accomplishing
the results desired.
In numerous instances drivers of
racks with leaky bottoms were sent
from the fields to repair their equip
ment and frequently bad order thresf.
Ing machines were stopped until the
cause Of waste was removed. But in
proportion, to the number of persons
engaged in gathering the nations grain
crop, cases of compulsion were com
paratively rare. The Food Admins.
tration freely attributes the success Of
the grain threshing campaign to pa
triotic service by farmers, thresher.
men and their crews. incidentally
grain growers of the United States are
many millions of dollars IN pocket"
as result of the grain saved.

PROVED spirit
OF DEMOCRACY
Voluntary Basis of Food Saving
Showed Heart Of America
Beat True for Freedom.

To the voluntary service and sacri-
fee of the American people must be
attributed the continued health,
strength and morale of the Allied ar
mics and the civil populace.
Upon this spirit of service and sac.
rifice will depend Europe's fate in the
months to come. In the past year we
have carried out an export program.
the magnitude of which is almost be-
yond comprehension. But with the
new demands that have come, with
the liberation of nations freed from
German oppression, our exports must
be almost doubled. Instead Of 11,82O,-
900 tons, we must ship twenty million
tons of food to europe in the coming
year-as much as can be pushed
through our ports.
If the Allies had not been fed by
America, it would have been impos
sible for them TO maintain their de
tense against Germany.
Meeting this world need on q purely
voluntary basis, the American people
have conclusively proved that democ-
racy is success ano that in time of
need it will rise to it's own defense:
If there were no other accomplish.
ment to it's credit the very fact that ii
has shown the strength of democracy
has in itself more than justitied the
existence Of the Food Administration
in the eyes of the world.
Less than four months after the
United States declared war the United
States Food Administrator expressed
his determination to- meet Americas
food problem on basis Of voluntary
action and reiterated his confidence
that awakened democracy would prove
irresistible.
MANY thinking Americans" said
Mr.. Hoover, land the whole: world
have been watching anxiously the last
four months in the fear that demo-
cratic America could not organize to
meet, autocratic Germany. Germany
has been confident that it could not be
done. Contrary proof is Immediately
at our door, and our people have al
ready demonstrated their ability to
mobilize, organize, endure and: prepare
voluntarily and efficiently In many d.
rections and upon the mere word OF
inspiration aside from the remarkable
assemblage of QUIZ Army and finances. .
The history of the Food Administra-
ton has clearly shown that the trust
of those who put their faith in denaoc.
racy has not been misplaced

WHAT HOME SERVICE MEANS

so many questions are constantly
coming to the Home Service Section of
the Red Cross that few words as to
ITS OBJECTS may not come amiss. The
Home Service Section aims to serve
Fthe folks at home, to bring them
nearer to the man in the field, and to
bring him nearer to the ones at home.
Sometimes it means helping to
lstraighten out a financial tangle, some
;times help in the training of the chill
.dren. sometimes being big brother to
"a young lad who needs bit Of friend
ny counsel. or advising a young wife
who may be worried about the coming
due of the mortgage and what her
rights under the law may be.
Then. ~soo there are sometimes de-
T:;]ass in the mails or lost letters, and
sometimes delays In the allotment, or
%. errors in the amount which should be
Forthcoming. These problems and
,:lmany others are being Strengthened
ptoest by the Home Service Section, with
out charge to the families, and with
an efficiency which is daily growing
more valuable. More than 100000
1,caNs have been answered.
For those who are worried because
of the non-arrival Of letters cable is
sent inquiring about the mans well
fare.
In fact the Home Service Section is
living up to its name-it is really the
service of those at home-it is trying
40 he the father brother or husband
ito those left behind.
