their third flood crest downriver

The Red Cross at Portland re-

In her talk on the European
home food situation, Miss Bran
non emphasized the Importance
of food to every Individual opin-
ing that democracy of any other
mode of life means little when a
person is hungry, and quoting
Napoleon's "An army travels on
its stomach" as emphasis.
She said the British, who live
on potatoes three times a day,
and other bare rations, spend
their money on industrialization
rather than food, laying this to
the austerity program Of the Brl-
fish government which is in
power. Though the Britisher looks
fairly well-fed in general, the
look is not one of health, she OBJ
served. The Germans in contast
to the F. glish peoc'e get no

Plantation Meal Available
Also available to Holmes coun-
ty and surrounding territory is
the meal grinding service at the
Williams plant which also put out
its own meal under the Plantation
Home Ground Meal brand.
This meal is carried by most
of the grocery stores in Holmes
county and has come to be recog-
nized as one of the finest meals
on the market
In the manufacture of this meal
every precaution is taken to re-
move all foreign matter such as
weevils, husks, cobs, faulty grains
and metal. To do all this the corn
passes over a seed cleaning
machine which removes this ma
terial all except metal which is
taken care of by magnets placed
in front of each machine over
which the corn passes for grind
ing.
Most mills grind up the corn
withoutth thorough cleaning pro-
cess which is the difference In
superlative meal and just plain
meal.

added a 80 horsepower engine.
Today his mill is operated with a
100 horsepower diesel engine
which runs 10 machines at one
time.
Today he operates a complete
