This Glengarry Scotch stuff,

When the McKercher career is

ARMY PIGEON TRAINING
BEGUN AT UNIVER-
SITY

Carrier pigeons for the army are
now being bred and trained at the Uni.

periments with the birds are being car
ried on Under the direction of the gov
eminent This new war work has just
been taken up under the direction OF
Prof. L. J. Cole head of the department
of experimental breeding.
Twenty-Five young pigeons have
been received from the signal corps for
use in flying Investigations, and IA old
birds for breeding purposes have been
donated by Cleveland pigeon fancier.
Two signal corps officers recently Wis
tied the university to make arrange
ments for the new work.
A warning not to shoot pigeons has
been issued by the bureau of informa-
ton at Washington because many
hOming pigeons are being trained in
various parts of the country. Now
that such training is being carried on
in Wisconsin, the people of the state
are being warned not to shoot pigeons
but to report the finding of any bird
bearing the label ~. S. A. O. 49,
Pigeons are playing large part as
messengers in the present war, and a
long careful course of training is need
ed to fit them for service. This work,
as well as special Investigations con-
corning the birds, will be carried on at
the university. Whether pigeon oper-
ators will be trained later has not yet
been decided.

TIE KAISER TO BECOME A
DAIRYMAN IN RUSK
COUNTY

BY means of their uneXcelled spy
system, the Kaiser and his staff have
discovered the wonderful Opportuni-

Investigations shows that the fertility
of the gently rolling hardwood ridges,
with their clay loan soil, fortified for
centuries by falling leaves of the for
est, in Rusk and western Price cOun-
ties, makes a place without compare,
for the sheep raiser and the dairyman.
Fearing that they cannot rule the
world, the Kaiser and his staff have
chosen wisely in selecting this vicin-
ity to settle and become sheep raisers
and dairymen when they are finally
forced to admit defeat.
SO you true Americans better get
your land in this clover belt, the best
unoccupied land in the world, before

The question of consolidating two or
three districts in Big Bend is being
considered. This would be an advis-
able thing to do, as new building at
Island Lake is needed, and the school
in No. 10 district has fallen off to four
pupils. The indications are that a
smaller number there will need school
ing next year.
1t cost No 10 over $40 per month
last year for the few attending. That
would more than cover transportation,
and consolidation would mean far bet
ter schools for the three districts, We
hope that the citizens will favor the
proposition, and thus give the boys and
girls of Big Bend the very best school
advantages they can.
BY consolidating three districts
state aid for building to the amount OF
from $500 to $4,000 may be received,
and for maintaining three-roOm
graded school additional aid of $500
per year is allowed.

PLAN STARTED IN NEW YORK.

traticn's New Home Gard Now
in 10000, 900 Homes.

The women of America. who are
anxious to do their great part in the
winning of the war, are now, as a
whole, familiar with the most impor-
tant aspects of food conservation. The
Home Card, both IN it's original form
and in the revised edition for 1918,
which provides for two wheatlesS days,
one meatleSS day q week, in addition
to wheatleSS meal every day, has been
placed by the Food Administration aft
er vigorous campaign in 100000
American homes. An intelligent and
conscientious observance of the Home
Cards requirements is all the Food
Administration asks of the housewives
OF the country.
The Food Administration has had a
great many requests, however, particu-
larry from the homes Of the well-to- do,
that 1t should issue a worked out plan
for voluntary system of rationing.
This desire for voluntary ration
springs from two csuses-first, be-
cause it is far simpler for the house.
wife to save food when she has con-
crete working plan by which to pro-
coed, and. second, because the loyal
women of America desire, unselfishIy,
to put themselves on the same basis
as the women of the Allied countries.
The ration proposed by the Food Ad-
ministration is almost the same as
that adopted in England for voluntary
observance. All over the United King
dom, in hundreds of houses there
hangs in the front window card with
the stirring pledge, "IN HONOR
BOUND WE ADOPT THE NATION
AL SCALE OF VOLUNTARY RAJ
TIONS."
The ration recommended by the
Food Administration, and adopted first
in New York city, whence the idea has
spread through the entire country, is
the following:
Weekly
Allowance
Per Person
Meat-Beef (fresh, sailed, tin
ned and hashed) mutton,
lamb and veal (mutton by
preference) .............. 21a lbs
Butter Observation-Disclosures. II Id.

or bread crumbs cannot be

Victory Bread Containing at
least 20 per cent. Of sub
stitute for wheat fiour). IL lbs.
Sugar Gncluding all sugar

cooking and all sweatmeats

The items listed above are the only
ones which are definitely limited. In
the case of milk and cream, as much
may be used as necessary. and chill
dren, Of course, must have their full
allowance of whole milk. Fish and
poultry, any cereal other than wheat,
vegetables and fruits and cheese may
be used as freely as is desired.
The above ration is in no wise in
tended to supplant the Home Card,
but rather to supplement 1t. 1t has
been published with the idea that it
will be a very real aid to the Ameri-
can woman in her splendid effort to
carry out the great food conservation
program.
