SEVEN WAYS TO
 DAILY SAVE SUGAR

Use fresh fruits without sugar. Z. Cook dried fruits without addi-
 tional sugar; they already con
 tain sugar
 5 Can more fruit without sugar:
 put up fewer jams and jeIlies. f. Use less sugar in tea and cof-
 lee; you will soon learn to like
 it better.
 D. Avoid such sugar luxuries as
 candy cakes, chewing gum,
 sweet drinks and sodas. ?. Use honey, sorghum, molasses
 and syrups and other sweet
 eners when available. {. Cut out all desserts or other dish
 es that require much sugar. One of the most important and patriotic things which can be done right now is to SAVE SUGAR.

FIGHTING WAS TERRIFIC.

With the Americans, Oct. 2-Last evening advices say the engagement was general along the whole line. Much rain fell. The Germans had heavier guns in action in many places, while with their lighter ar tilIery they fired point blank at many places in efforts to drive holes in the American solid line, which so far has refused to budge an inch from any territory gained, no mat ter what the odds.
 The Germans are resorting to des' perate means to maintain tho strength of their forward line. Again it is the theory that they are preparing to fall back.
 1t is reported that small de tachment of tanks is moving south ward from Romange. It is the first time the enemy has used tanks in the present operations.

 I am glad to learn from your favor of the 21st instant that you are about to leave for Alaska in order, hope, to secure well-earned rest.

 Frankly 1 am a great believ- CT in the future of Alaska.

brought to this country by Miss Ca

America, like the men, obey orders
from the people, said General Per
shing'S message. These people know
what is wanted and what should be
done. Let the women do what they
are told and they will be doing all
that can be done. Also. let them
write to their boys, over there, cheer
full letters, hopeful letters, not letters
filled with gloom. The boys there are
a brave lot and it is for their friends
in America to cooperate themselves,
obey orders, work and write. The key
note of the positive success of the

mility and willingness to obey, and

A Pacific Port. March 2s.-With
the arrival here today Of the auxiliary
schooner Alexander Agassiz, brought
in by an American war vessel from a
point off MaZatlan. Mexico, the COM
mander Of the American warship
gave an account Of the manner in
which the Agassi8 was fitted out to
be a German raider by Germans now

had planned to do all the damage
they could to American and allied

According to the commander. the
Agassiz was fitted out at Mazatlan

transportation delayed shipment so
that wheat, which earlier in the year
had been given priority, had to be
sent abroad to avert famine.
As only wheat and barley can be
shipped after April /, the public is
being asked to cut its consumption
of wheat to so per cent of normal
and even that sacrifice barely will
stretch supplies to meet demand, IN
less every busheI held on farms and
in warehouses is put on the market.
The March report of the depart
ment of agriculture showed III, 900, :
600 bushels of wheat on farms and
100000 bushels in elevators. Since
the agitation in congress to increase
the price of wheat to $3.50 receipts
at mills have dwindled from $780,
600 bushels to 100000 bushels
week.
Use OF potatoes as a substitute
for wheat, which has been urged by
the food administration, will not be
possible in some sections because of
traffic congestion. The administra-
ton has abandoned the idea of a ma
tion-wide educational campaign for
that reason and will depend on state
administration to stimulate con-
in those states where the
potatoes are being delivered by the
railroads.
