Ourselves aud Canada

Pessimistic Americans and Ameri-
cans who hesitate to support the
Fourth Liberty loan to their utmost
should review the achievements of
Canada.
Canada's last Victory Loan WAS
subscribed to the amount OF &4lS, 0OO.-
600. which on the basis of population
is equal to a $4,000, OOO,OtO bond sub
scription by the people Of the United
States. And this was done after four
years of war and after sending 6OO,-
900 soldiers to the front. which on
the basis OF population would be
equalled by our sending 100000
men to the colors.

Food Administration Postpones
Opening oate-New Home Card
VIII Prove stuff We're Made OF.

The few people In America who
have seen the new 1919 Homo Card OF
the United States Food Administra-
ton. giving the food saving program
for next year, call 1t the most sensa
tional statement yet Issued to the
American people by the Food Admin
istration.'
1t is printed in matter.of-fact black
and white. 1t Is couched In unemo-
tIonal language. 1t Is one simple state
ment of fact after the other.
But 1t calls for the greatest sacri-
flee, the greatest conservation effort
ever asked voluntarily OF any nation.
Here's Just hint:
To meet the promises that Herbert
Hoover made to the Allies at the re-
cent Allied Food Controllers confer.
ence held In London. each person In
America must be responsible for the
exporting next year of $50 pounds OF
food stuffs. saved at his own table.
Hoover has promised that the 1907
100000 Of us will save and ship 1850
900 tons OF food to the Allies next year
half as much again as last year.
Naturally this immense saving OF a.
kinds OF food: this tightening by hall
again Of the nations belt-can only be
accomplished II every household does
its part.
Because OF the "flu" the Home Ccrd
campaign has been postponed from DC
tober q TO the week OF December 2.
On the success Of this compaisn
and the carrying out OF the Home
Cards suggestions after 1t is hung in
every kitchen, will depend the NATIONS
success in living up to its intcrnation'
al obligations.
Churches. schools. lodges, "four.min.
ute men," Women's Council of Defense
speakers. Neighborhood circles and
many other agencies will help make
the coming Home Card campaign a
thrilling. smashing. decisive. victorious
part of winning the war.
Two hundred thousand cards-ap.
proximately-will be given out In
Colorado.
Until this campaign begins-delayed
as II Is by the health conditions OF
the state-the Food Administration
urges that food saving shall not slack
en-; that all foods be conserved to the
limit all the time: and especially. thar
short rations of WHEAT. MEAT.
FATS AND SUGAR be served at home
SO that our fighting force in France
may have full rations and full VIGOR
over there.

MAKES HIS own SUGAR

Limited by the Food Administration
to forty.seven pounds OF sugar month
for brend.making. W. F. Prltts OF the
Pritts Baking Company. 9Ol Bannock
street. Denver. found a way to make
his own sugar. Mr. Pritts is also head
OF III. bakery division of the Food Ad
ministration for Colorado.
He returned his sugar certificates to
the sugar division Of the Food Admin
istration. effecting saving OF more
than 500 pounds of sugar n year right
there, and now Ia willing to give his
recipe for sugar manufacturing to any
other baker who will communicate
with him.
The sugar is produced out OF the
chemical reaction OF barley malt on
corn starch and is powerful sweet
ener. Here is the recipe In brief;
Moisten barley and let 1t sprout;
dry by heat break off the sprout,
make q barley broth tmalp: cool thor
oughly; make regular corn starch
pudding, bringing 1t to stiff boil: add
the barley broth or malt. Presto'-
the chemical reaction takes place,
producing malt sugar.
