SEVEN LOAvES OF BREAD
FOR EVERY PERSON IN
U. S. SAVED FROM WASTE
Farmers and Threshermen Patriotl-
caiiy Respond to Call OF Food
Administration.

From Information received by the
U. s. Food Administration from the
principal grain growing states, 1t is
now possible to announce with fair &C.
curacy the amount of wheat saved last
harvest by improved methods Of han
ding. According to official calcula-
tions, efforts toward cleaner threshing
saved fully 100000 bushels of wheat
with corresponding savings of other
small grain harvested and threshed in
a similar manner In addition, other
states, though unable to furnish fig
ures, reported greatly reduced harvest
losses.
The figure for wheat alone Is equiv
alent to seven one-pOund loaves Of
bread for every person In the United
States and represents food that FORM
erly was either an absolute loss or
was recovered to only slight extent
by poultry and livestock. While op-
portunities in this branch Of conserva-
ton were large, the quantity OF grain
recovered surpasses early expecta-
tions. It Is noteworthy also that re-
suits were secured principally through
voluntary cooperation.
No conservation measure OF the
Food Administration, 1t Is declared,
has received more wholehearted sup
port than that pledged and rendered
by farmers and threshermen toward
reducing grain waste at its source.

AID FOR CATTLEMEN
WITHDRAWN.

According to a telegram received
from the secretary of the Cattle Loan
Agency of the War Finance Corpora
ton at Kansas City by the livestock
division of the United States Food Ad-
ministration for Colorado, the corpor-
alton has been urged by its legal ad
visers that. being war organization
only, 1t must wind up its affairs by the
time peace is declared and therefore
does not expect to do much more
business through the agency"
This amounts to a practical closing
of the Cattle Loan Agency at Kansas
City as far as further loans to cattle
men Is concerned.
Congress may endeavor to help the
cattle industry" II. H. Tompkins, Jr,
head of the livestock division of the
food administration said. But Con
gress cannot take action until Decem-
Der and that will be too late to help
the situation any this year"

That France, unlike Germany, is not
sitting supinely by and waiting for the

Father Boyle went to Denver
Tuesday to rush work on the CON-

has been somewhat retarded be-
cause of lack of material.
Reports from the Brandstetter

gaining their usual health.
1t is said that the flu at Urad
has reached the proportions of an
epidemic. and quarantine regula.
tions have been established to pre-
vent further spread of the disease.
"Off again, on again. come again,
gone again is certainly applicable

STOLEN COPPER
FOUND ON LADS
Arrested After Attempting to Sell
CarburetOr "Purchased" at
Velie Plant in Moline.

With his pockets loaded with
copper automobile parts, tubing,
etc. Ray Bramlett was arrested this
morning by Patrolman Ernest Ris-
tau on Eleventh street between
Fourth and Fifth avenues after he
had attempted to sell carburetor
to two automobile wreckers in the
west end of the city. He was &C
companied by Charles HaverlinR.
Both lads are being held at the po-
lice station, charged with the theft
of the copper goods.
Bramlett is said to have given
the wreckers a story about having
bought" the carburetor at the
Nelie automobile plant in Moline.
When Patrolman Ristau arrested
the lads, neither had the carburetOr
IN his possession. This has lead the
police to believe that cache other
than Bramlett's pockets is located
near the place of the boys arrest
and that they have baen stealing
auto parts from the various auto
mobile concerns in this city and
Moline An investigation is to be
made before a hearing will be held.
