SAVE 100000 BUSHELS
OF WHEAT THAT FORMERLY
WAS LOST IN THRESHING
Farmers, Urged by Food Administers
ton, Provide Seven Extra Loave'
Of Bread for Every American.

By adopting cleaner threshing meth
DDS and by literally combing harvest
fields to gather grain formerly vast"
ed, threshermen and farmers of the
United States this year saved fully
100000 bushels Of wheat, estimated
as equivalent to about seven one-pound
loaves Of bread for every person In
the country. This result, accompanied
by corresponding savings Of barley,
oats, rye and other grains, is shown by
reports from 33 grain states to the o.
s. Food Administration. Other states,
although not prepared to furnish def
mite figures Of conservation in the
grain fields, report greatly reduced
harvest losses.
This rural food saving achievement,
accomplished In scarcely six months
time, was in direct response to re-
quests by the Food Administration,
which asked farmers and threshermen
to reduce harvest losses from about
81 per cent.-the estimated average
in normal times-to the lowest posi-
BILE minimum. Country grain thresh-
ing committees carried into every
grain growing community the official
recommendations for accomplishing
the results desired. =
In umerou instances drivers Of
racks with leaky bottoms were sent
from the fields to repair their equip
ment and frequently bad order thresh-
ing machines were stopped until the
cause Of waste was removed. But in
proportion to the number Of persons
engaged in gathering the nations grain
crop, cases Of compulsion were COM
paratively rare. The Food Admins
tration freely attributes the success Of
the grain threshing campaign to pa
triotic service by farmers, thresher-
men and their crews. Incidentally
grain growers Of the United States are
many millions Of dollars "in pocket"
as q result Of the grain saved.

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-
lay 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 q 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 filed 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 10,23S,OOO head
and 12,441,O00 hogs. These figures
were compiled to January 1 last
In this period there was a decrease
in sheep Of $4,000 head. The indica-
lions are that this decrease will show
an increase, according to recent re-
ports.
Since January / unofficial informa-
ton indicates an increase in hogs OF
not less than s per cent. and not
more than Is per cent. as compared
with m year ago, with an increase in
the average weight.
Following the request Of the o. 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 1,6OO,-
OOO,O 900 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 903,172 900 pounds,
while for the corresponding months of
1918 the dressed hog products totaled
1,277, 1900, an increase Of over S74,-
100000 pounds for the quarter.
During the same period for 1917 the
records Of inspected slaughter OF
dressed beef showed 1,263,000,OO0
pounds as against 1,454,00 900 pounds
for the three month period ending

PROVED SPIRIT :.
OF DEMOCRACY
Voluntary Basis Of Food Saving
Showed Heart of America
Beat True for Freedom

To the voluntary service and sacri-
fee Of the American people must be
attributed the continued health,
strength and morale Of the Allied ar
mics and the civil populace.
Upon this spirit Of service and sac
rifce will depend Europe's fate In the
months to come. In the past year we
have carried out an export program,
the magnitude Of which is almost be-
yond comprehension. But with the
new demands that have come, with
the liberation Of nations freed from
German oppression, our exports must
be almost doubled. Instead OF 1l,S2O,-
600 tons, we must ship twenty million
tons Of food to Europe In the coming,
year--as much as can be pushed
through our ports.
II the Allies had not been fed by
America, it would have been impos-
sible for them to maintain their de-
tense against Germany.
Meeting this world need on a purely
voluntary basis, the American people
have conclusiyely proved that democ-
a c Is a success ano that in time OF
need it will rise to its own defense.
If there were NO other accomplish
ment to its credit the very fact that it
has shown the strength Of democracy
has in itself more than justified the
existence Of the Food Administration
in the eyes Of the world.
Less than four months after the
United States declared war the United
States Food Administrator expressed
his determination to meet Americas
food problem on q basis Of voluntary
action and reiterated his confidence
that awakened democracy would prove
irresistible.
"Many thinking Americans" said
Mr.. Hoover, "and the whole world
have been watching anxiously the last
four months in the fear that demo-
cratic America could not organize to
meet autocratic Germany. Germany
has been confident that it could not be
done. Contrary proof is Immediately
at our door, and our people have al
ready demonstrated their ability to
mobilize, organize, endure and prepare
voluntarily and efficiently in many d.
rections and upon the mere word OF
inspiration aside from the remarkable
assemblage of u Army and finances"
The history of the Food Administers
ton has clearly shown that the trust
Of those who put their faith in democ'
racy has not BEEN misplaced.
