Tabulations of the reports OF the can

in Windham county show that with re-
ports from six communities not included,
by reason of delays, the women in p
communities put up more than III 900
quarts of food products the past season,

put down I2,7sS dozen eggs and had
1891 quarts of canned foods left over
from 1917. The total of these figures,
not including the eggs, is lS5.S19. and
doubtless the reports from the six miss
ing communities will bring the aggre-
gate up to 100000.
