Save 100000 Bushels

There is no shortage of potatoes,
corn and oats; the milk supply is not
pinched, spring gardening will supply
much for our tables. But we must,
as nation, save 100000 bushels of
wheat to feed the armies. Not wheth-
er we want to or not-we MUST.
Every American is urged to cut his
average ration of wheat by so per
cent, which would reduce the total
normal consumption of 100000
bushels a month to 100000 bushels.
That gives ration of not more than
Ia pounds wheat product weekly
for each person. Flour sales will be
cut to one-eighth of a barrel for q
town customer and to one-quarter Of
barrel to a country customer, that
retailers stocks may be distributed
to as great a number as possible.
The wheat contents Of bakers bread
will be reduced to rs per cent on
April IA, which increases by per
cent the amount Of substitutes that
must be saved. ,loa>.

The normal consumption of sugar
in the United States is about 90
pounds per capita. We are now asked
to use only an ounce and a hall

The normal consumption of meat is:
Beef, 82.5 pounds; mutton, pounds
pork, 103.5 pounds other meats, ::
pound; or a total of 1885 pounds pei
capita per annum. We are asked to
cut down the consumption of meat by
minimum of one ounce per day. We
could probably cut down our consump
ton by a quarter of a pound per day
and still not miss it, thereby saving an
abundance for our allies abroad.
OF fats we eat 342 ounces a day
We are asked to cut this down to
about II ounces per week.
Of wheat and wheat -four products
we normally eat about Is pounds a
month per capita. We are asked to
reduce the consumption now to
pounds per capita per month.
OF corn we normally eat about So
pounds week We are not asked tc
restrict ourselves in the use of this
cereal in any particular In fact, we
are asked to eat larger quantities OF
corn in order that we may materially
reduce the consumption of wheat -four
to a positive minimum.

Food Administration
Freight Office

An interesting announcement is
made by the United States food adj
ministrator of the creation of district
traffic Offices, each under the control
of traffic director. These districts
coincide in territory with those covered
by the railroad administration through
its regional directors.
The traffic division for the Southern
district will have headquarters in the
Hea4ey building. Atlanta, and will be
in charge of Regional Director of Traf-
fic Charles Barham, for many years
general freight agent OF the NJ, C. &
st. l.. railway.
1t is under 1Od to be the duty OF
this new -niZation to coordinate
the work Of the food and railroad adj
ministrations, in efSecting the prompt
movement of foodstuffs, in reducing
delays in loading and unloading and
returning cars, and in other ways
tightening congestion. It is expected
to work closely in all these matters
with the regional railroad director, Mr.
Markham.
The county representatives of the
food administration have been re-
quested to correspond direct with Mr..
Barham, Healey building, Atlanta, Ga,
In all cases where local efforts have
failed, and where the services Of his

penitentiary, asylum, hospital, sanito-

any other merchant, who, in turn
sells or charges the meat so purchased

The new Liberty Loan is announced
three billions at four and one-ouar-
ter per cent. This is called "sma1l
loan" The bankers are surprised at
its smallness.
The human mind adjusts itself
easily to new things. When the
country announced the Panama canal
to cost less than one-tenth the
amount of this loan, fnanciers shiver-
ed at the extravaganza. And in the
peace. days, when anybody suggested
that the government ought to do any
thing, the conclusive reply ALWAYS
was the government cannot AT
FORD it."
And 10 and behold! The Govern

hundred and fifty millions in several
years, can now casually make loans
of three and four billions at a time,

Around him is drawn a circle thirty
kilometers in diameter Within that
circle, of which he is the centre, no
human being may come except at his

Germany comes the boast, "Our chas-

to victory, maintained mastery in the

they can be killed they cannot be

Most interesting of all, when the
story is told, will be that figure of
the Kaiser, watching the bloody work
OF his ambition and telegraphing his
wife that God is helping him in the
task of killing. He sincerely believes
that the Ruler of Millions of suns
and planets is actually concentrating
HIS attention on the murderous enter

same thing in the past.
NO man on the allies side knows
what IS back of this drive.
1t is hoped that the Kaiser is max
ing the desperate effort because he
was compelled to make it-because
the people were not in a mood to
stand inaction, and he could not rely
on them indefinitely.
