WHISKEY AND RED PEPPER
Liberal Doses of This Mixture Given
Pneumonia Patients at Army
Camps-Said TO be Life Saver

John R. Raglan, Mr.. and Mrs. Fred
and Miss Margaret iRagan drove up
from Grand Rapids Thursday and
spent most of the day among local
friends. The first named is Grand
Rapids leading; furniture dealer and
undertaken and is especially promin-
ent in state and national gatherings
of men engaged in these lines His
son, Fred, is enjoying a furlough from
Camp Grant, Rockford, ILL.,, where he
is member of headquarters COM
pany. During the recent epidemic of
influenza the young man assisted for
several days in hospital work and
relates many distressing incidents of
that terrible siege. The doctors and
nurses were literally "drivel to death"
by the many demands upon them,
thousands of the boys being stricken
within a few days time and several
hundred failed to survive the subse-
quent attacks of pneumonia. The
medical authorities failed to observe
prohibition tenets in treating the more
seriously affected patients, as the pre-
scriptions were confined almost ex-
clusively to liberal doses of whiskey,
into which red pepper was sprinkled
This treatment was also followed at
Great Lakes and is said to have saved
many hves.-Stevens Point Gazette.

CANDY MAKING SUP
PORTS THOUSANDS
OF EMPLOYEES

In answer to complaints that while
consumers can get only two pounds of
sugar at their grocery store, the con-
fectioner's windows next door are
filled with candies, Magnus Swenson,
Food Administrator for Wisconsin,
explained the attitude of the Admins
tration toward the manufacture of
candy
Consumers have no knowledge of
the amount of sugar used by the con-
dictionary industry" he said. The
Bureau of Chemistry and clever con-
fectioners are constantly experiment
ing upon sugar saving formulas con-
tanning corn and maple syrup, honey
and invert sugar.
1--WE have cut their sugar allot-
ment to so per cent of the amount
they used during a corresponding
period last year. Before this ruling
went into effect confectioners used
only s per cent of the total sugar con-
sumption in the United States; now
they consume only per cent. This
averages one-half teaspoonful per per-
son per day.
"Would you have the Food Admin
istration close big industry involv-
ing millions of dollars and which pro-
vides the means of living to hundreds
of thousands of employees to save
one-half teaspoon of sugar a day for
you?"

FINE CHEESE EXHIBIT AT
MANITOWOC COUNTY FAIR

"The Cheese Exhibit at the Manito-
Voc county fair this year was good to
look upon" said K. L. AlderhOld of
Neenah, who acted as judge, land in
quality was as high, if not higher, than
any exhibit Of Its size | ever saw at a
county fair"
Longhorn and young American
cheese were featured, and prizes were
given to Twin and Dairy cheese and
Creamery and Dairy butter.
At a time when the public is being
exhorted to eat dairy products, the
attractiveness of such exhibits fur
theirs the work Of the Wisconsin Food
Administration. The many varieties
of cheese are advertised, and the rea.
sonabIeness of its cost in comparison
with meats is demonstrated.
ct is fair general estimate that a
given amount of money spent for
American cheese at ordinary prices
will buy about twice as much food as
it would if spent for meat" claims
DR.. Sherman, professor of Food Chem
istry at the Columbia university.
Generally speaking. cheese sells at
no higher price per pound than the
ordinary cuts Of meats, while Is is
considerably richer in both protein
and fat"

WATCH YOURSELF!

Do you need a policeman to make
you keep within your 2-pound
sugar allotment?
Will Hoover be obliged to spend
$5,000,000 and hire 100000 men to
RATION sugar in the United
States?
Or will you back up Hoover's
belief in Democracy and voluntari-
ly limit yourself to one-half pound
a week?
Hoover knows exactly how much
sugar we will have. He has figured
out the amount that must go to our
soldiers, to the Allies and to indi-
vidual Americans. If you take
more than your own portion, you
are stealing from someone else
who will have to go without.
Would you be pointed out after

The United States never had an
epidemic which penetrated every part
of the country and caused so many
deaths as the present influenza. The
number of deaths throughout the coun-
try is appalling. 1t has now been on
it's rampage of death for month. In
some places it is diminishing; in 9TH
ers it is increasing. In Wausau some
homes have not had a touch while in
others every member of the family is
ill., The disease has left some of it's
victims in a condition which will take
time to bring about complete recovery.
1t is announced that as Jos. e.
Davies will make speeches in the
state, commencing October 2Sth, and
the democratic committee is to ar
range as many dates as possible. 1t
is doubtful whether the influenza will
subside sufficiently to allow public
meetings of this kind to be held in
the state at that time.
