SAVE FOOD AT SOURCE
OF IT'S PRODUCTION
Food Board Issues Special Call for
Farmers Aid.

Faced with the gravest food problem
that ever a nation was taxed with.
the United States Government,
through its Food Administration, has
issued a special appeal to farmers in
whose hands lie the greatest power
of food saving.
From a harvest less in aggregate
production than last year the United
States must export IL million tons of
food more than her normal, pre-war
exports. This means that out OF the
crops of each average American farm
two tons more than usual of food
must be sent overseas.
Before food can be shipped it must
be saved, and because of the large
quantity of .foodstuffs stored in gran
aries, cribsAnd barns of farms the
farmers opportunity for food saving
is correspondingly great.
Every farm is a food munition
plant" says Herbert Hoover.
Menacing this food munition plant,
its stores of food and its live stock
are FIRE, BAD WEATHER, PESTS
and DISEASE.
The Food Administration. in its spe-
cial 1919 farm conservation program,
urges that every farmer
Remove inflammable rubbish, plow
fireguards. use care with matches,
lanterns and stoves; install fire-fight-
ing equipment of even a crude kind in
a definite place for instant use.
Store all foodstuffs under shelter as
soon as harvested; keep roofs of
barns, cribs and granaries repaired.
Kill rats and other pests at their
breeding places.
Prevent stock losses through dis
ease by housing all live stock COM
fortably, feeding regularly and giving
them constant, watchful care.

INFLUENZA PATIENTS .TC
HAVE EXTRA SUGAR.

Flu victims need more sugar in
their diet. if they are to be made we'll,
than the average healthy person
needs.
Therefore the Food Administration
for Colorado has been given authority
from Washington to issue permits for
extra sugar for sick folks upon the
recommendation of the doctors in
charge of the cases.
During the Colorado canning season,
closed October 81, there were issued
by the Food Administration approx
mately $685. 900 permits on which 2,195,-
301 pounds OF sugar were purchased
up to the 18th of the month. Based
on the amount of sugar used, 1t is be-
lieved that very close to 100000
pints of fruit have been put up" by
Colorado's Kitchen conservationists."

HAY GROWERS
 TO ORGANIZE

Tho committee which was appointed of the valley, at a meeting. held in the Water Users building. has met and by the assistance of John l.. Gust, at torney for the Water Users associa- tion, has drafted plans and bylaws for an organization to be known as the Salt River Valley Hay Growers asso- citation.
 This committee is calling a meeting at 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon at the Water Users building, at which meet ing the committee will report to the hay growers on constitution and by laws for the permanent organization. Mir. Gust will also be present at this meeting.
 The committee will also be able to give report on the number of acres now planted to alfalfa in the valley, also the tonnage which it is expected will be produced. and an estimate of the number of tons which the govern ment expects to use during the com ing year and the approximate price they will pay.
 It will be interesting to the hay growers to know that the market at the present time, if the growers or ganized would justify the farmer in dshlh6, anu receiving, Szu ton, put In order to get this price it is necessary that the growers organize. for it will take the entire organization to furnish sufficient hay for the government use says the committee. It has been esti- mated that the government will use three-fourths of the hay that is shipped out of the valley.
 The committee will provide for ways of financing the grower so that he may hold a sufficient amount of his hay to supply the winter demand. The government does not approve of stor- ing more hay than there will be a market for in the winter.
