New Use for the Motor Car.

Tangible evidence that the passenger
Car is playing as great part as the motor
truck in releasing the resources of the
nation, is supplied by thousands of re-
quests made at the 12O branches and
depots of the B. F. Goodrich Rubber
Company for route cards and road maps
for both short and long business trips.
The great majority of thes, requests
are for inform alton concerning routes
into those localities where it is known
provisions, mercantile products and COM
modities in general use are most avail
able. Reports from Goodrich branche
show that many of these cars leave and
return loaded to the top with materials of
every description. Thus, it is performing
the function of both common carrier and
pleasure car.
These reports also show that farmers
are teaching their wives and daughters to
drive and that many of the cars that en-
ter town are pil0ted by women
Farmer, suburbanite and city man have
increased their personal efficiency and are
daily saving thousands o. hours by en-
listing the aid of the motor car. This
immense saving of times becomes more
and more noticeable as the drain on labor
from the cities and farming communities
become more acute as a result of draft
ing of our man power into the national
army. This Short cut" affects every in
dlvidual and agency coming in contact
with the user Of the passenger car.

Profit by Belfast Citizens
Experience.

Something new is an experiment.
Must be proved to be as represented.
The statement of manufacturer is
not convincing proof of merit
But the endorsement of friends is.
Now supposina you had bad back,
A lame, weak, or aching one,
Would you experiment on it?
You will read of many so-called cures
Endorsed by strangers from far-away
places.
It's different when the endorsement
comes from home.
Easy to prove local testimony.

MUST USE LESS SUGAR:
ALLIED NEEDS GROW
Americans Asked to Use No More Than
Two Pounds Per Person
Per Month.
Shortage May Last Until Beginning of 1919
When New Sugar Crop Arrives.

After making careful survey of the
world sugar situation the U. S. Food
Administration has asked the Ameri-
can public to USE NO MORE THAN
TWO POUNDS OF SUGAR PER PER-
SON A MONTH until January l, 1919.
Increased sugar demands from the
Allied nations where the present sug-
ar ration is already reduced to the
lowest possible level-and the need Of
keeping our army and navy supplied
are two of the leading causes Of the
curtailment of Americas sugar ration.
Americans are requested to make
two pounds Of sugar per person (half
pound week. serve for all sugar
uses In the Notwithstanding cook
Ing and all sugar served at the table.
Public eating places, as well as
housewives, will be required to limit
their use of sugar to two pounds for
every ninety meals served. In the
U. 5. Food Administration cafeteria
at Washington, where employees of the
Food Administration take their noon
meal, one pound of sugar is used for
every 100 meals served.
The U. S. Food Administration is
confident that the American public will
heartily agree to reduce household use
of sugar here to level more nearly
equal to the present restrictions
among the Allied nations.
The situation which the United
States faces In its efforts to maintain
a fair distribution of sugar to the AL
lied world Is as follows:
The Grangeville globe. [volume] (Grangeville, Idaho) 1907-1922, 1918-08-29

Tho sugar supplies throughout the
country, In homes, stores, factories and
bakeries, are at low ebb; the produc-
tion from the American beet and
Louisiana cane crops have been disap-
pointing; the yield In Porto Rico has
likewise been smaller than antlclpat-
ed, and the Inability Of the United
States and the Allies to secure sugar
from Java and other distant sources
ships for the movement Of troops and
their supplies has materially reduced
the supply from such quarters. Added
to this already difficult situation, the
quantity needed by the Army and
Navy greatly exceeds earlier esti-
mates; we must send large amount
to France and Italy to take the place
German and Austrian lnvasions, dur
Ing which much beet land was over
run and many factories destroyed; we
have to supply certain quantities to
neutral nations under agreements; and
finally over fifty million pounds were
! lost recently through submarine sink
ines oT our Atlantic coast.
The Food Administration is conf
dent that the American people, with
the record of wheat savings behind 1t,
having by voluntary savings sent 140,-
000 900 bushels of wheat to the Allies
after practically every bushel had been
exhausted from our normal surplus,
will with the same spirit save the
sugar situation of the world.

FRANCE AND BELGIUM
GET AMERICAN SUGAR

Ninety-flve per cent. or all renneu
sugar sent from the United States 10
the Allied nations went to France and
Belgium during the hrst nve mounts
of this year.
France got u per cent, or nearly
SO, 100000 pounds, and Belgium receiv-
ed nearly 11,OOOWO pounds' or "a per
cent
In each country this sugar was doled
out by a strict rationing organization
The entire amount to the Allies in
those Ave months %. 791 tons, almost
half of which was shipped in Mays

SUGAR EXPORTS SMALL
TO NEUTRAL NATIONS

Only 797 tons Of refined sugar were
shipped from America to neutral ma
tons during the first five months OF
this year. This amounted to only 3,2
per cent. OF the total exports to all
countries. Mexico received more than
half the amount we exported to neu
trails
