Mike Lacy, who has been in the To-
cal hospital for more than eight weeks,
was able to leave the institution on
Monday. Mr. Lacy had his right hand
terribly mangled in a. corn shredder
last fall, and for tinie' it looked as
if he would lose his hand 1t was
found necessary to amputate the index
finger, in order to save the hand. The
thumb was taken off in the machine
at the time of the accident. Mr.. Lacy
considers himself mighty lucky to have
part of the hand.
Albert Favre, who has been employ
ed on the c. A. Swindell farm for some
time, came to the hospital for treat
ment Monday morning. Mr.. Favre has
been in poor health for some time, and
hopes to be able to be back at his
work on the farm after short time
of treatment and care in the hospital.
Fred Legg, who was in the hospital
for several days last week, was able

All the Nations Will BE Able 70 Re.
turn 70 Their Normal Sup
ply Of White
Bread,

Overshadowing all other accomplish
ments Of the American people under
the leadership of Food Administration
is the history of wheat exports in the
past sixteen months. Our wheat ex-
port Program proved conclusively to
the world that America was in this
war from start to finish and willing to
make any sacrifice that will hasten
victory or maintain the health and
strength of people overseas, upon
whom rested, the heaviest weight of
our war.
Now that pressure on ocean tonnage
Is eased by the stopping Of large move
ments Of troops to Europe, we may re-
lax our efforts to save wheat. The &C.
cumulated surplus in Australia, Argen.
tine and other hitherto inaccessible
markets will become available, and
probably no more than our normal sur.
plus will have to leave this country.
We In America and the nations which
have won the world for freedom will
be enabled to eat their normal wheat
loaf at the common table of the peo-
pies Of democracy.
We entered the past crop year with
wheat supply which gave us only
20,000,000 bushels available for ex.
port. When the crop year ended, we
had sent 141, 100000 bushels of wheat
to Europe The American people had
saved out of their normal consumption
l21, 100000 bushels.
A survey of export figures shows
that the conservation of -four brought
about by the wheatless meals, wheat.
less days, substitution In our kitchens
and bakeries, enabled us to send to
our armies and the allies 81, 100000
barrels Of white fiour-wheat figured
as -four. Had we exported only our
visible surplus, we would have been
able to ship less than 100000 barrels.
Before the 1st Of December our sur
plus had gone overseas, and an addi-
tional 100000 bushels had been tax
en- from the stock reserved for home
consumption and added to the surplus
already shipped to the allies. 1t SEEM
ed hardly possible that we Could bring
our total exports above 1O000O,0OO
bushels by July 1. But in January the
late Lord Rhondda, then British Food
Controller, cabled that unlessg we
could send an additional 7500O,000
bushels he could not take RESPONSE
bility for assuring his people that they
would be fed. The American people
responded by sending S5,OOO000 BUSH
els of wheat, saved from their home
consumption, between the first of the
year and the advent Of the new crop.
By October 10, 1918, we had already
shipped 65,96O,305 bushels since July
1. Absolutely the only Limitation upon
our wheat exports since the latest har-
vest has been the scarcity of ocean
tonnage. II exports continue at the
present rate, by July Of next year
we will have sent more than 237 ,50O.-
600 bushels to Europe.
Thus are we making good Americas
pledge that the bread rations Of Allied
Europe shall be maintained.

The First Act Passed.
There is usually more or less rush
for the honor of presenting the first
"Bill for an Act in either House or
Senate. This time the honor goes to
Hon. Douglas Rogers of Carroll coun-
ty in the House, and to Senator Ed
H. Smith Of Madison county, in SEN
ate. Senator Smith struck one with
his bill to repeal that part of the law
which permits boards of supervisors
to publish the county board proceed
ings in papers of foreign language
1t is predicted the bill will soon be-
come law, as it strikes mainly
against the use of German papers for
printing legal or official notices.
House File No. /, by Rogers, went
through Tuesday afternoon with Q
unanimous vote, the rush being to re-
peal the existing statute providing for
stated pay for the Senate and House
employees and will permit fixing the
salaries by joint resolution.

by the clock to get the ratification
measure through the Senate and House
and thus Iowa was the 31st state in
the list to ratify it.
The. vote on the prohibitory amend
ment was AZ to in the Senate and
Sc to l3 in the House, Two speeches
only were made against it, one by
Senator Frailey Of Lee county, who

ton to vote of the people. Senator

motion.

THIS YEAR.
ELECT OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
Institution Had Prosperous Year Dur.

Quarters.

The annual meeting of the Farmers
& Merchants State Savings bank was
held January 14th, at which time the
stockholders elected the following as
a board of directors: Burton Clark
John F. Graham L. Matthews, Sr., F
NJ Burbridge, c. ]. Hockaday. Grant
Brayton, A. M. Cloud, w. N. Wolcott
Fred H. Munson. Mr.. Matthews was
elected as a director to succeed the
late William A. Maurer.
The following officers were elected
by the directors: President, Burton
Clark; vice-president, John F. Gra-
ham; second vice-president, L. Mat
thews, Sr.; cashier, F. E. Dutton; as
sistant cashier, w. w. Matthews; Sec
ond assistant cashier, Wayne Dutton
The bank has enjoyed an immense
business during 1918, and has made a
steady growth in the volume of busi-
ness handled. This steady growth is
due in large measure to the sound
business judgment exercised by the Of
ficers of the bank
Bank to Have New Home.
An item of business transacted at
the annual meeting of the stockhold-
ers of the bank Of much interest to the
people of Manchester, Is that Of in
structing the board of directors to take
immediate steps toward the erection OF
handsome new banking building.
Some time ago the bank purchased
the corner building now occupied by
the A. c. Philip drug store. At the
time the bank acquired the property
this country was just entering the
world war, and building materials and
labor were at a premium, and the idea
of building during war times was at
once given up Now that the war is
over and the embargo on building ma
terials is being raised, and the labor
question is getting back to pre-war
times, the question of erecting a build
ing such as the bank needs is tt. re-
ceive immediate consideration. The
stockholders, instructed the board of
directors to name committee, whose
duty it will be to go into the matter Of
q AcW OulluAAE5 AAOl 2 AuAAys AAo SoAA
mittee is to determine whether is it ad-
visable to start on building project
this spring or delay 1t for another sea-
son.
The officers of the bank believe that
there is no reason why the project can
not be undertaken this spring. The
new building as contemplated will ex-
tend from Main street to the alley and
will be two stories high, with high
basement underneath the entire length
of the building. For long time the
bank has been cramped seriously for
room. The lobby is altogether too
small to accommodate the large num-
ber of patrons of the bank, and the
force of workers are likewise crowded.
The new building would afford large
lobby space, and give room for the
force, consultation rooms, and would
include new and much larger safe
of the latest construction.
The new building, when completed
will make one of the most conspicu-
GUS improvements Manchester has had
in many years. The fact that the bank
has outgrown it's present quarters is
the best evidence of the important
place it holds among the business in
stitutions of Manchester,
