KEPT PLEDGE
TO SEND BREAD
American Nation Maintained Al
lied Loaf Through Self-
Denial at Home Table.
AVERTED EUROPEAN DESPAIR.
With Military Demand* Upon Ocean
Shipping Relieved, World le Able
to Return to Normal White
Wheat Bread.
Since the advent o f the lateet wheat
crop the only limitation upon Ameri
can exports to Europe has been the
shortage of shipping. Between July 1
and October 10 we shipped 03,080.81X1
bushels. I f this rate should continue
until the end o f the fiscal year we will
have furnished the Allies with more
than 287,500,000 bushels of wheat and
flour In terms o f wheat
The result o f Increased production
and conservation efforts In the United
State* has beeu that with the cessa
tion of hostilities we are able to re
turn to a normal wheat diet. Supplies
that have accumulated In Australia.
Argentine and other hitherto Inacces
sible markets may be tapped by ships
released from transport service, uud
European demand for American wheat
probably w ill not exceed our normal
aurplua. There Is wheat enough avail
able to have a white loaf at the com
mon table.
But last year tha tale was different.
Only by the greatest possible saving
sad sacrifice were we able to keep a
steady stream o f wheat and flour mov
ing across the sea. We found our
selves at the beginning o f the harvest
year with an unusually short crop.
Even the most optimistic statisticians
figured that we had a bare surplus of
30,000,000 bushels. And yet Europe
was facing the probability of a bread
famine— and In Europe bread Is by far
the moat Important article In the diet.
All o f this surplus had left the
country early In the fall. By the first
o f the year we had managed to ship a
little more than 50,000,000 bushels by
practicing the utmost economy at
home— by wheatless days, wheatless
meals, heavy substitution of other
cereals and by sacrifice at almost
every meal throughout the country.
In January the late Lord Rhondda,
then British Food Controller, cabled
that only If we sent an additional 73.-
000,000 bushels before July 1 could he
take the responsibility of assuring his
people that they would be fed.
The response o f the American peo
ple was 85,000.000 bushels safely deliv
ered overseas between Januaiy 1 and
July 1. Out o f a harvest which gave
us only iiO.OUU.OUO bushels surplus we
actually shipped 141,000.000 bushels.
Thus did America fulfill her pledge
that the Allied bread rations could be
maintained, and already the American
people are demonstrating that, with
an awakened war conscience, last
year’s figures will be bettered.

Our exports since

“ The whole foundation o f de-

+ ministration, “ lies In the lndf-
+ vidua! Initiative o f Its people
+ and their willingness to serve the
+ Interests o f the nation with com-

♦ o f emergency. Democracy can
4* yield to discipline, and we can
4- solve this food problem for our
+ own people and for the Allies in
+ this way. To have done so will
4- have been a greater service than
4* our Immediate objective, for we
+ bave demonstrated the rightful-
4* ness of our faith and our ability

Sending to Europe 141,000,000 bush-
sis o f wheat from a surplus o f appar
ently nothing was the outstanding ex
ploit of the American food army In the
critical year o f the war.

It was given to the women o f this
country to perform the greatest serv
ice In the winning of the war vouch
safed to any women In the history of
the wars of the world—to feed the
warriors and the war sufferers. By
the arts o f peace, the practice o f sim
ple, homely virtues the womanhood of
a whole nation served humanity In Its
profoundest struggle for peace and

RELIGION OF THE CHILDREN
Spirit of Faith, Hope and Love Toward
the Father and Mother Is Off
spring's World.
We need not follow the antiquarians
back luto the era of the cave dwellers
In our search for the origin of rctiglou.
Religion Is reborn In the birth o f every
babe, says Lyman Abbott lit the Out
look. He needs no teacher to tell him
that he Is dependent on his mother
for his food, and a widening sense of
Ills helpless dependence on her grows
with his widening experience.
Her
service to him awakens his gratitude,
her brooding love for him Inspires In
him an answering love.
If she Is wise as well as nit affec
tionate mother, he early recognises
her authority and learns that prompt
obedience Is one secret of happiness.
If she loves and honors her husband’
her child’s love and honor follows
hers to the strong stranger. If she
has piety ns well as human a ITeel ion,
he dimly perceives In her prayers
at his bedside an experience which
he presently wishes he might share.
Thus there grows up In him a spirit
of dependence, gratitude, love, rever
ence. obedience, faith ami this spirit
is religion, it antedates all theology,
precedes thought, transcends defini
tion. The spirit of faith, hope and
hive toward father and mother Is the
child’s religion.
The conception of
God and his duties toward God conies
later.
TURNS THOUGHT TO RELIGION
Destruction by Shell of Statue Th a t
Stood Somewhere in Galicia Re
sulted in Me.iy Reproductions.
Yes. war does turn men's thoughts
to religion. Go to gay. Immoral Buda
pest. You find It today a city o f sober
people. You find In many of the shop
windows the reproduction of a famous
statue that stood ■'somewhere In Gali
cia," relates the Christian Herald.
It was a large crucifix. A battle
pivoted around It. A shell struck the
statue, tore away the entire cross and
left the figure of the t ’hrist standing
and unscathed. This event made a
tremendous Impression u | h > u the Hun
garians.
The story of It went through the
army like wildfire. At Budat>est mini
ature statues, showing the destroyed
cross und the intact figure o f the
Christ, were at once manufactured,
aud put on sale. You cau find them
now, expensive or cheap. In nearly
every Hungarian home.
The pity of It Is that It seems to
take u war to make some people think
of these things.
Make Your Own Fat Compound.
Many folks object to paying the pres
ent high price for lurd. but realize that
at the price of hogs and with the prob
able future demand It is unlikely thut
the price will be reduced soon. It be
comes Important, then, to find a cheap
er satisfactory substitute. Dr. Louise
Stanley o f the Missouri college of ag
riculture, suggests thut housewives
consider suet as u source of cheap fat.
Suet has not been us extensively used
as lard on account of Its harder con
sistency. It can be obtained at about
111 cents a pound. From this can be
ohtuined 14 ounces of pure fat at a
cost o f 1- cents a pound. In order to
bring this to the consistency of lard
it is only necessary to add oil In the
proportion of one of oil to two parts
of suet. This gives a compound fat
which Is very satisfactory for general
household use. Cottonseed oil or corn
oil cun now be obtained at uhout 21
cents u (Miuud. On the basis of the
above proportions a satisfactory lurd
substitute can he had at a cost of 15
cents a pound.
Light Best Suited to Eyes.
Recent Investigations into the kind
of light best suited to the eyes have
Important practical significance. The
studies were made from the point of
view o f “ contrast” to determine the
Ideal contrast between the object
looked at and the surrounding back
ground. It was found that the usual
contrast In brightness In tween objects
out o f doors rarely exceeds the raMo
of 1 to 20. The eye cun detect coo
trusts as delicate ns 08 to 100. In
doors, contrast In light and shadow
[ often runs as high as 1 to 200, and a
dark window frame against a bright
-ky presents a contrast of 1 to 10,000.
The scale of contrasts best suited to
ihe eye lies htween 1 lo 20 and 1 to
100 .
Agriculture in France.
The French governim nt has under
taken to supply the depleted ranks of
the fargiers and to give assistance to
the amateur farmer by means of o
correspondence course, which has been
eagerly received. The pupil receives
| instructions as to a course o f reading,
the management of a small experimen
tal plot, the carrying out o f simple
i •xporlments, visits to
neighboring
farms, etc. The Union o f Agricultural
' Syndicates, which has assumed cliargi
\ o f this work for the government, lias
'.ippointed a number of “ monitors’’ to
! supervise the work of pupils. The pti
pits prepare monthly examination pn-
| i<ers and render monthly re|s»rts.

Over Thr*# Tima* Prs-War Shipment*

Policy Sound.
With the guns In Europe silenced,
wo have now to consider a new world
food situation. But there can be no
hope thut the volume o f our export*
can be lightened to the slightest de
gree with the cessation of hostilities.
Millions of peopls liberated from the
Prussian yoke are now depending
upon us for the food which will keep
them from starvation.
With fluid the United States made
It luisslhle for the forces of democ
racy to hold out to victory. To Insure
democracy til the world, we must con
tinue to live simply In order that we
uiay supply these liberated nations of
Europe with food. Hunger among n
people Inevitably breeds anarchy.
American food must complete the work
of making the world safe for democ
racy.
I-ast year wo sent 11,820,000 tons of
food to Europe. For the present year,
with only the European Allies to feed,
we had orlglually pledged ourselves to
a program that would have Increased
our exports to 17,300,000 tons. Now,
to feed the liberated nations, we will
have to export n total of not less thiiu
20.000. 0110 toas— practically the limit
o f loading capacity at our ports Re-
viewing the world fluid situation, we
find that some foods w|JI be obtainable
In quantities sufficient to meet nil
world needs under a regime of eco
nomical consumption. On th» other
hand, there will be marked world
shortage* in some Important commodi
ties.
Return to Normal Bread Loaf.
With the enlarged wheat crop*
which American furtuers have grown,
and the supplies o f Australia, the A r
gentine and other innrkets now acces
sible to shipping, there are bread
grains enough to enable the nations to
return to their normal wheat lonf,
provided we continue to mill flour at
a high percentage o f extraction and
maintain economy In eating and the
avoidance of waste.
In fats there will be a heavy short
age — about 8,000,000,000 pounds — In
pork products, dairy products and
vegetable oils. While there will be a
shortage of about three million tons
in rich protein feeds for dalry^ ani
mals, there will he sufficient supplies
o f other feedstuffs to allow economical
consumption.
In the matter o f beef, the world’s
supplies sre limited to the capacity of
the available refrigerating ships. The
supplies of beef In Australia, the A r
gentine and the United .States are suf
ficient to loud these ships. There will
be a shortage In the importing coun
tries, but we cannot hope to expand
exports materially for the next mouths
In view o f the bottle neck In trans
portation.
We will have a sufficient supply of
sugar to allow normal consumption In
this country If the other nations re
tain their present short rations or In
crease them only slightly. For the
countries o f Europe, however, to in
crease their present rations to a ma
teriel extent will necessitate our shar
ing a part o f our own supplies with
them.
Tw e n ty Million Tons of Food.
O f the world total. North America
will furnish more than 00 per cent.
The United States, including the West
Indies, will he called ujxin to furnish
20.000. 000 tons o f food of all kinds as
compared with our pro-war exports of
about 0,000,1X10 tons.
While we will he uble to change our
program In many respects, even a
casual survey o f the world supplies
In comparison to world demands shows
conclusively that Europe will know
famine unless Aie American people
bring their borne consumption down
to the barest minimum that will main
tain healtli and strength.
There sre conditions of famine In
Europe thut will be beyond our power
to remedy. There are 40,< kn », isxj peo
ple In North Russia whom there Is
small chance o f reaching with food
this winter. Their traiisisirtatloii Is
demoralized In complete anarchy, and
shortly many o f their ports will be
frozen, even If Internal transport
could be realized.
T o Preserve Civilization.
At this moment Germany has not
Hlone sucked tha food and animals
from all those masses o f [wiople she
has dominated and left starving, but
she has left behind her a total wreck
age of social Institutions, and this
iiiiihs o f people Is now confronted with
absolute anarchy.
If we mine our own snfety and the
social organization of the world. If we
value the preservation of civilization
Itself, we cannot permit growth o f this
cancer in the world's vitals.
Famine Is the mother of annrehy.
From the Inability o f governments to
secure food for their people grows
revolution und chaos. From an ability
to supply their people grows stability
o f government and the defeat o f an
archy. Did we put It on no higher
piano than our Interests In tho pro
tect Ion of our Institutions, we must
bestir ourselves In solution o f till*
problem.
