Discusses Ways and Means
OF Saving Little Things.

To the Editor of The Star:
1t is the little things that count. What
true saying! Let us put it into effect
referring to scrap metal. Start now and
no matter where We are, If we see any
small pieces Of metal, such as screws,
bolts. nuts or anything else lying around,
even in the street, as We walk along, Just
rescue them.
Then there are razor blades, made Of
the very finest steel. Think of the mil
lions upon millions that are discarded
where we cannot get them, lying be-
tween walls in hotels, apartment houses,
homes. etc. It would be q good idea to
tack or paste sign over all razor blade
drops, saying, CLOSED for the Duration"
A receptacle should be placed near to
drop them in. When a number are COL
lected, wrap, tie and label, Razor
blades"
Now little about the new speed limit
Try to make habit of driving between
20 and Is miles an hour, keeping the
extra 10 or IS miles for reserve. Then
If 1t is really needed, as you speed up to
IS, 1t will really seem as though you are
getting somewhere. Most of us remem-
Der when 80 miles an hour was really
fast driving. Let us try to feel that way
about it again, anyway until the war
has been won. E. F. MacNICHOL.

Protests Discrimination
Axainst Native Washingtonians.

10 the Edlror OF Inc StRl
The President has urged the people ito
get out and vote Tuesday" all except
the people of the District OF Columbia
(the Nations Capital.
We native Washingtonians have no
place to go and vote. We are classed
politically with idiots, criminals and
paupers, although We, the people Of the
Nations Capital, are making 1t possible
for the people of all parts Of the country
to live here.
The War of the Revolution was fought
because of taxation without representa-
ton. We are sending our boys overseas
to fight in another World War, and yet
they have no voice in their Government.
How much longer have We, the native
Washingtonians, to be subjected to this
injustice and humiliation?

Reports Difficulties
In Relation to Sugar Cards.

In Relation to Sugar Cards.
To the Editor OF The Star:
According to news story. Japanese
spy reported to his superiors that 1t
would be futile to bomb Government
buildings in Washington, because II one
were destroyed there would be at least
two other buildings left filled with clerks
doing exactly the same thing.
The story hardly seems an exaggera-
ton. Last May We registered for sugar
at the John Quincy Adams School. Not
having received ration books after about
six months had elapsed, we made In
quiries at the Force School and were In
formed that 1t would be necessary to I'LL
out cards, giving age, weight, color OF
eyes and hair, ETC., etc. Upon explaining
that this already had been done We were
told that it would be necessary to do 1t
again and it was Every simple!"
Possibly the fourth dimension is simple
to an Einstein but 1t is no clearer than
mud to many other persons; nor Is it
clear why some are compelled to submit
to tiresome ordeal twice in order to
obtain ration cards, while others apply
only once. Page Charley Chan. Perhaps
he can solve the mystery. Methinks the
Jap spy furnished q clue!

Advises to Buy
Lumber, Other
Materials Now

Now is the time to lay in lum-
Der and other materials necessary
for food storage cellars and to buy
canning equipment, according to
Miss Anderson, home management
supervisor for the Farm Security
Administration in Lincoln county.
Don't wait until your garden is
in production or until fruit is on
the market before you buy food
preservation supplies" said Miss
Anderson ITO wait might mean
that you will not be able to OBJ
tain the kind or type of canning
jars and lids you desire Miss An
derson stressed the fact that this
buying ahead means careful plan
ming now. Families must consider
how many of their root crops will
keep in an airy basement and which
are better off in an outdoor, frost
proof storage cellar or pit. Sweet
potatoes, pumpkins, and squash are
among the vegetables that may be
kept in a warm basement. Potatoes
and apples are best stored in an
outdoor vegetable cellar, but never
together as potatoes will ruin the
flavor of the apples. Cabbage and
turnips should also be kept in an
outdoor cellar because of their pen
etrating odor. Celery keeps best
in trenches.
She said that if families needed
shelves to improve their food pam
tries or storage shelters, now was
the time to get nails and lumber.
Gardens of families cooperating
with the Farm Security Administra-
ton in Lincoln county will be much
larger this year than ever before,
reported Miss Anderson. In the in
terest of nutrition they will contain
greater variety Of vegetables.
Homemakers in these families have
completed their plans for purchas-
ing more jars. They have found
home canning of food both econom-
ical and valuable to family health
and the pressure cooker method OF
preserving non-acid vegetables has
proved most successful.
Last year." said Miss Anderson
'the poultry flocks on farms where
the families were cooperating with
the FSA averaged about Is birds
This year it is believed the flocks
will average IS head, an average
gain of about 40 per cent.
I'VE, have been told that the large
farms fin America are producing the
maximum amount of products, anc
that the majority of needed increase
in food production must come from
the small farms throughout the
United States. Ii this is true, and i
y all small farmers over the natior
are planning to work as hard fol
production as the small farmers ir
Lincoln county, | know this country
need have no fear of food short
age"

the. outer corridor of the building,
and made their quick getaway by
crawling through the small hole,
and running back into the wooded
hills II was believed that the men
made a knife to cut the hole with
from a piece of steel broken from
the frame of a cot on which one of
them slept, sharpening the tool on
the cement floor of the jail. All the
other prisoners declared they knew
nothing of the affair.
