GRATEFUL FOR COLD WATER
Thirsty Fighters Went on Their. Way
Blessing the Thoughtfulness Of
That Red Cross Worker.

There was plenty Of water in x, but
tin mug Of it was more deadly than
a German machine gun. It's impossi-
BILE to push two or three hundred thou
sand soldiers back and forth over
locality, especially when half of them
are Germans and there isn't time to
clean up after they have been de-
feated, and keep the water supply UNI
affected. And when, as is the case
often, the water wasn't very pure to
begin with, it's not at all wise to daily
with the idea of drinking it. But what
can you do when you've been out all
day fighting and pursuing Germans
and your canteen's empty and the roof
Of your mouth feels Ikea vulcanized
scrubbing board?
That's the thought that came to a
Red Gross field service man during
the hottest fighting in August. It was
hot in two senses. The bullets flew
and the sun melted. And the Red
Cross man took out his largest mar
mite and filled it with water that was
cool and purified. He kept it full all
day and every soldier that passed that
way had a drink Of water. It was
water they wanted just then. A little
initiative on the part of one man made
the soldiers as he himself put it "ab
surdly grateful. But after struggling
across fields and roads all day in the
hot sun, WellWell men do become alb
surdly grateful for q drink of COO

conservation we will be able this year
to export seven times our pre-war
average exports of pork products.
With the heavy demands added in car
ing for the millions who have been
freed from German oppression, the,
Department Of Agriculture and the
Food Administration are justified to-
day in our every action Of stimulation
of hog production. In the coming year
the greatest world shortage will be in
fats, and pork will help to save this
situation. The efficacy Of the policy.
of stimulated production has built up.
in this country supplies which will en-
able us to supply a very large part Of
the fat deficiency of the world: In
beef there must be a shortage in Eu-
rope, due largely to limited refrigera-
tor ship capacity. All freezer ships
available, however, will be filled by
America, Argentine and Australia.
The contribution made by the pro-
ducers of this country to the war pro-
gram as applying particularly to ami,
NAL food products is illustrated by the
following:
Reports compiled by the q. S. De-
partment of Agriculture indicate an
increase in cattle Of 1O,238, 600 head
and 12,441 900 hogs These figures
were compiled to January l last.
In this period there was decrease
in sheep Of $4,000 head. The indica-
tons are that this decrease will show
an increase, according to recent re-
ports.
Since. January / unofficialt informa-
ton indicates an increase in hogs Of
not less than 8 per cent. and not
more than Is per cent as compared
with one year ago, with an Increase in
the average weight
Following the request of the q. s.
Food Administration for an increase
in hog production for marketing in the
fall Of 1918 and the spring of 1919 the
increase may yield not less than 1,600,-
600 600 pounds more of pork products
than. were available last year. With
out this increase the shipping program
arranged by Mr.. Hoover regarding an
imal food products would have been
impossible.
The dressed hog products during the
three months ending September 80,
1917, amounted to 9O3, liz, 900 pounds,
while for the corresponding months of
1918 the dressed hog products ;totaled
1877 $4,000, an increase of over 374,-5
100000 pounds for the quarter.
During the same period for 1917 the
records Of inspected slaughter of
dressed beef showed xl,26S,000,0 900
pounds as against 100000 pounds
for the three month period ending
September 1, this year. 49,
