Immediately the question is asked,
why does the Food Administration
release restrictions if food must be
saved? Here is a conflicting situa-
ton, but the answer is easily forth
coming.
One Of the firm and sound princi-
pies upon which Mr.. Hoover based
his organization, and one which has
prevented the Food Administration
from going on to rocks that have ina
perf1led other war activities, and yet
has caused, at the time decisions
were made, criticism, is that, if ne

prompt in applying. but equally
prompt in Withdrawing them when
sudden changes remove the need of
restrictions.
My message boils down to this
Certain restrictions are removed. We

SAN FRANCISCO MAN SAYS IMPROVEMENT.
 IS JUST WONDERFUL
BLAKE DECLARES TANLAC HAS PROVEN BETTER FOR HIM THAN HEALTH RESORTS.

Like a vast forest fire, springing from a single spark, the fame of Tanlac has spread fJom a single tes- timonial given in it's behalf a little more than three years ago, until over Ten Million bottles of the medicine have been sold and it's praise is now being heard all over the United States and Canada.
 William l.. Blake, well known hotel man, residing at 1767 Page St., San Francisco, Calif., in telling of the remarkable results he obtained from the use of Tanlac, recently, said:
 About six years ago, | was unfor- tunate enough to have an attack of ptomaine poisoning and since that time I have never been able to eat anything, that didn't give me misery. Gas would form on my stomach, causing swelling and intense pain. I finally got to where I was afraid to eat anything and lost nearly all my energy and grew so weak and thin and uncomfortabl that I could not walk without becoming entirely ex- hausted. I was advised to go to the springs in Lake county, which I did. ! l spent quite while there, but did not get any relief. No medicine had even helped me and | didn't know what to try next.
 'On my return to San Francisco, read several high endorsements on Tanlac, and started taking it. Be- fore I had finished the first bottle, it had begun to straighten me out. kept on taking it, until now am able to eat just anything want ! pastry, solid foods-many things I I haven't touched for six years. My nerves are in better shape, my streng tn has come back to me. I am in better condition every way and am picking up all the time My improve ment seems wonderful to me. and even my friends are surprised at the great chanee in me since I started taking Tan1ac."

GREENLEE IS PATRIOTIC;
 600 ARE IN ARMY AND NAVY

Greenlee has been rather proud of the number of men in the National Army, as we have boasted of having approximately 400 now in the service.
 In response to the call sent out by the recorder for the names and ad- dresses of soldiers for the purpose of mailing out ballots for particiDa- tion in the primary election, the gratifying discovery has been reveal ed that there are approximately eco now in the service. The increase is due to the extremely large number of patriotic young men who have en- listed in the army and navy from this county many of who were not known to be in the service until their names were handed in by friends and rela- tives.
 This news will be especiallv grati- flying to all who have heretofore boast ed of the 400 boys who are serving their country, but this additional 200 is enough to make a larger and old CT county than Greenlee to feel real chesty.

1,eoo, 900 HOGS REQUIRED
 TO FIBER THE ARMY
Quartermaster's Department Places Big Order for Meat With Packers to Feed Overseas Army.

The Quartermaster's Department has placed with the Packers the larg- est order for meat ever recorded in the history of the world. This con tract is for 99,560,00 IDS. of bacon, and 134, 1000, ,000 of canned meat, to feed the American army overseas.
 Louis F. Swift, in commenting on same, said the order will take the bacon from approximately 1,S00,000 hogs and if other work were dropped while it is being produced it would be equivalent to the total bacon pro- duction of the five largest Chicago packers for nearly five weeks, how ever, six months will elapse before delivery is to be completed.

EXPRESS COMPANY
 RAISES SALARIES
New Company Heeds the Call of High Cost of Living and Boosts Wages of Employees Accordingly.

The new express company, which is now known as the American Railwas Express Company, sends out the fol lowing letter to the employees of that corporation, one of which has been received at this office, and is self. explanatory:
 "The increase in express rates re- gently granted by the Interstate Com merce Commission makes it possible to immediately revise the wage sched- ules of the American Railway Express Company.
 President Taylor of the new con- pany in an interview in New York this week says that he has been in session with his chief operating off cials and that they will begin imme- diately a readjustment of the wage schedules of. the large number of ex- press companies throughout the en- tire country and that it is the inten- tion of the new company to utilize substantially the entire revenue ac- cruing from the increased rates that will be available to the express com pany in an advance in wages. It
 
 will be appreciated that with such, an enormous organization throughout the entire country it will necessarily take some little time to work out the in. crease in a systematic and equitable manner. It is hoped this entire ques- tion can be disposed of within per iod of thirty days. However, the em. ployes will not suffer in consequence of this delay inasmuch as all increase when announced will be made to take effect from July 1st, 1918. None of this money will, be used to increase the salaries of the higher-paid men or the officials of the companyl. The ad ditiona1 revenue accruing from the in. creased rates will be distributed up on the basis of doing the greatest good to the largest number. It is hoped that the use of this money ex clusively for the purpose of increas ing the salaries of express workers will encourage them to do everything possible, to insure an improved se.- vice to the public"

At the current prices on the day, last week, when the purchase was made, the packers would pay the live stock producers about $80,000,000 for the necessary hogs and over $50 0.000. : 900 for about 900,000 cattle required. .The cattle will cost us twice. as much, and the hogs two and one-hah times as much as in the pre-war per- iod.
 "The whole order will be made up before the first of the year, despite the fact that, even before this pur- chase, one-fourth of the packers facilities have been devoted to fill ing military demands"

THE >KAIsER's TALK TO HELL.

The Kaiser called the Devil up
 On the telephone one day: The girl at the central listened to
 All that they had to say. 'Hello," she heard the Kaiser's voice;
 Is Old Man Satan home? Just tell him it is Kaiser Bill
 Who wants him on the phone" The devil said "Hello,,' to Bill.
 And Bill said, How Are you? I'm running here hell on earth;
 So tell we what's to do.'' What can I do,'' the Devil said,
 My dear old Kaiser Bill: If there's a thing that can do
 To help you, sure I will.' The Kaiser. said, Nov, listen, And I will try to tell The way that I am running
 On earth a modern hell.' I've saved for this for many years,
 And I've started out to kill That it will be modern job,
 You leave to Kaiser Bill. My army went through Belgium,
 Shooting women and children down We tore up all her country,
 And blew up all her towns. My Zepps dropped bombs on cities,
 Killing both old and young: And those the Zepplines didn't get
 Were taken out and hung. T started out for Paris,
 With the aid of poison gas; The Belgians, darn them, stopped us, And would not let us pass.  My submarines are devils,
 Why, you should see them fight, They go a-sneaking through the sea
 And will sink ship on sight. T was running things to suit me
 Till a year or so ago, When man named Woodrow Wilson
 Wrote me to go more slow. He says to me, Dear William
 We don't want to make you sore, So be sure to tell your U-boats
 To sink our ships no more. We have told you for the last time
 So, dear Bill, it's up to you, And if you do not stop it,
 You have to fight us too.' q did not listen to him
 And he's coming after me, With a million Yankee soldiers
 From their homes across the sea. Now that's why I call you Satan
 For I want advice from you; I know that you would tell me
 Just what I ought to do. My dear old Bill," said Satan.
 There's not much for me to tell, For the Tanks will make it hotter
 Than I can for you in hell. I've been a mean old devil But not half so mean as you, And the minute that you get here
 I will give my job to you. "I'n be ready for your coming
 And Ell keep the fires all bright, And I'll have your room all ready
 When the Tanks begin to fight. For the boys in blue will get you
 I have nothing more to tell, Hang up your phone and get your hat
 And meet me here in he'll" (Sent by w. T. M'Courtney, Dawson
 City, Yukon..)
