THE UNITED STATE8 FOOD i ADMINISTRATION SAYS: Food saving Is In Its essence the « daily Individual service of all the 1 people. Every group can substl* ! lute, and even the groat majority • of thrifty people can save a little • --and the more luxurious elements r of the population can* by reduc- I tton to simple living, save much. 1 This means no more than that wo » should eat plenty, but wisely and 5 without waste. ■ Food Will Win the War am LARGE part of the world is coming to the position that Belgium ISIn; cOm- * Ing to the Btage ® where the pri­ mary khd Im­ portant thing in l i f e is enough fo o d to keep alive.

We are in receipt o f’a letter from Mr. Charles Raney, of Morrow.

Mr. Raney states that they have taken in a herd of 24 head of Aber- dcen-Angus cattle. Ericas and Black­ birds and with their present herd will have about fifty head. They expect to r0]16w stock breeding on their new farm. Mr. Ranev in renewing his sub wrlption wants the Herald, to follow hem as it is the same as a letter from home. FIFTY FIFTY AGAIN Local dealers in flour have new orders on the sale of flour and the old rule of half and half is in force, half white flour and the othcr*hal£ jn other cereals. The rule* is not so hard on those able to buy so much at one time but with the poor people it is something else, To sec a little girl leave a grocery without getting so much as a small sack of flour because she did not have the money to buy the other cereals appears unjust. Those able of course can. do as they please with the com meal. With such a rul­ ing flour will have to be sold in Smaller quantity. But this is war time and every class has found in­ conveniences heretofore unknown. - + ' ♦ W. C. T.
