SEVEN LOAvES OF BREAD

Farmers and 1hreshermen PatrlotI.
eaIIy Respond to Call Of Food
Administration.

From information received by the
o. S. Food Administration from the
principal grain growing states, it 10
now possible to announce with fair &C
curacy the amount Of wheat saved last
harvest by improved methods Of han.
ding. According to official calcula.
tons, efforts toward cleaner threshing
saved fully 100000 bushels of wheat
with corresponding savings Of other
small grain harvested and threshed In
a similar manner. In addition, other
states, though unable to furnish flg-
ures, reported greatly reduced harvest
losses.
The figure for wheat alone Is equiv
alent to seven, one-pound loaves Of
bread for every person in the United
States and represents food that FORM
erly was either an absolute loss or
was recovered to only slight extent
by poultry and livestock. While op-
portunities in this branch Of conserva-
ton were large, the quantity of grain
recovered surpasses early expecta.
tons. 1t Is noteworthy also that re-
suits were secured principally through
voluntary cooperation.
No conservation measure OF the
Food Administration, it is declared,
has received more wholehearted sup
port than that pledged and rendered
by farmers and threshermen toward
reducing grain waste at its source.

SUGAR TESTED
MORAL fiber
Doubters Declared Saving Sta
piles Would Be Easy Compared
With Sacrificing Luxuries.
FIGURES SHOW RESULTS.
Americans Demonstrated Sturdy Sup.
port of War by Conserving for
the Benefit of the
Allies.

When figures began to show def
initely that the people Of the United
States were actually reducing their
consumption Of foods needed abroad,
the. United States Food Admins
tration was told that it was COM
paratively easy to bring about conser-
walton of staple necessities but that 1t
would be far more difficult to accom-.
plish an actual decrease in the use Of
luxuries, The doubters took sugar as
an example, and declared that it would
be practically impossible to bring our
consumption Of sugar down to a point
that would meet only the food needs
Of the people.
Now that demands upon ocean ton
mage will be lightened, European ma
tons will be able to 60 farther afeld
for foodstuffs, and will no longer be
entirely dependent for sugar upon
North American supplies. With the
stocks now in prospect, we will have
sufficient sugar to place this country
back upon normal consumption If the
present short ratiOns in Europe are
not materially increased. II the Eu-
ropean ration is to be materially In
creased over the present low amount
It can be only through the American
peoples making 1t possible by con-
tinued restriction to greater or LEES
extent here.
The fact that the Food Administra.
ton has been able to relax the volun-
tary sugar ration 10 In itself proof that
the ration Of two pounds per person
per month was generally observed
throughout the country. This conser.
walton allowed the Food Administra.
ton to build up reserve, and to tide
ever the period Of scarcity, until the
tho new crops Of Louisiana cane and
beet sugar were ready for distribution.
The records Of the Food Admins
tration show that in July, August, Sep
TENDER and October COS 900 tons were
distributed. Normal consumption for
that period is 100000 tons. This
shows q definite, concrete saving of
over 100000 tons. These figures ap-
ply to sugar consumed on the table, ~
the kitchen and in the various indus
tries, and show conclusively that in
the homes and public eating places Of
America, where 70 per cent. Of all our
sugar Is consumed, the sugar consump-
ton has been reduced by more than
one-third.
In the four-month period begin
ming with July, this country normally
uses 100000 tons Of sugar per month.
Last July 100000 tons entered into
distribution. In August only 225,000
tons were distributed. In September
the figures showed $4,000 tons, and
then fell to 100000 tons in October.
There could be no more definite
proof that the American people have
given their loyal cooperation and sup
port of the war.

reservation in the history of the

Wilson and party arrived here at 8
o'clock this morning. Several com
panies of state troops guarded the
union depot and kept the crowds
back. There was little cheering, but
much hand-clapping.
The party was delayed in gettin TO
the capitol because the automobiles
were not at the station. The party
arrived at the capitol at 9:45 a. M,
winding through long lines of specta-
tors.
AT the capitol automobile horns
end cheers kept the president bowling
and smiling He entered the house
chamber at 10:14, was introduced by
Governor Burnquist and began speak
ing at 10:1S.
Ratification of the peace treaty
is essential to a settling down of
world conditions which will tend to
bring down the cost of living" Pres
ident Wilson today told the special
session of the Minnesota legislature
The president speaks in Minneap-
oils this afternoon and again in st.
Paul tonight before leaving for Bis
marck, N. ID.
Although the legislature is in ma
jority strictly republican, it gave him
q warm greeting
THE cost of living is primarily a
world condition, due to the losses of
man power in the war and the de-
moraliZation of industry" he said.
Factories must again be devoted
to peace purposes and labor redis-
tributed. This process cannot begin,
he argued, until real peace is as
sured by ratification, when ommerce
will be resumed and the world begin
TO settle down."
Senators who oppose the league
of nations are afflicted w.t. just
plain downright ignominies, he de-
clared.
There was hand-clapping and many
cheered. Mrs. Wilson, sitting in the
gallery, smiled.
The president finished speaking at
10:45 and went to lunch with Gov
ernor Burnquist at the st. Paul Hotel.
