Battles of considerable proportions lave been fought at several" places atad appar ently are still continuing. The most serious conflict seems to have been a Viborg, where Socialist red guards were assisted by RusSan soldiers with artillery. Many peas ants from the surrounding country came into the city and aided the gov ernment militia, the formation of which was begun only last week. The red guards retired after heavy fight ing and: apparently now are await ing reinforcements. The fighting at Davidstad ended in victory for the militia, but the red guards threaten to return. Red -guards occupied the railway station at Tammerflors. Looting and murder by the red guard, hooligans and Russian soldiers is reported at many places throughout Finland. The leaders of the red guard at Helsingfors have published a procla mation summoning the guard to be ready for action.

C. COWGILL F. W. Steualoff, food conservator of Marion countv has received word that new food cards will soon be in Salem. They will be much more dras tic In their nature, will provide for "no pork" days, 'a stricter observ ance of wtieatless days and other im portant changes. Tehse new cards will be enforced if need be. to make them effective. Mrs. I. F. Clark receiveed a letter yesterday written by her brother in Gerle. France, about 14 hours' Jour ney from Paris, which states that putter mere is u cenis a pounu. eggs 80 cents a dozen, and bread 15 cents a pound, and that flour is worth in .United States money abdut $6.00 a sack. Meats must be saved. There is no pork to speak of In that country. and that is why more must be pro duced in the United States and sent to France, as pork In the shape of ham and bacon, with beans, is the largest part of the ,army and navy mess chest. If it is only one ounce of fat a day saved 'by each family in the United States. Mr. Steusloff sasy. It will mean millions of pounds in the aggregate to send abroad for American soldiers and the allies. Munitions of war cannot be made without a certain percentage of fats and America must furnish it. There are other meats, and plen ty of them that home folks are wel come to eat. besides all the fish or the rivers and the seas. What more does any patriot want? L- Mrs. Clark's letter Is beautifully written in French, and translated it tells a tale of saving that could well be emulated here. The brother In the war left behind In his home a wife and two boys, of 4 and 6 years, and they tell In the mother's letter that they "want to go and fight the kaiser. like papa." Is there any one In Salem I know of dozens myself who has 4a son. nephew, or husband "over there," who will not more than welcome the new food cards? , Not one. of course, out Jt Is up to the neighbors who have hot yet felt the call to the colors.
