Pace Six THE BEAVERTON TQSE3 Friday, May 3, 1918. of This County Hillsboro, Oregon, April 29, 1918. To the Loyal People of Wash ington County. In view of the gravity of the rood situation as to wheat and floor, a special appeal is made to you to consider the facts. The allied armies must have 75 million bushels more wheat between now and harvest. HUNGRY MEN WONT FIGHT. 1 To furnish this we MUST eat only half as much' wheat as we did a year ago. Do you know that in many sections of the country patriotic people have pledged themselves to eat no more wheat until after harvest? Don't you know, as a matter of fact, that you can eat pota toes, corn, oats, rice and barley with your garden stuff until har vest, and be just as well and just as strong as if you had eaten all the fine wheat flour and pastry you wanted? The only place you will suffer wiH be in the gratification of your taste. The person , who insists on gratifying his palate without regard to our soldiers' needs in these times cannot be fittingly described in print The maximum amount of wheat flour that is allowed is one and one-half pounds per week per person. Americans who want to DO THEIR ALL will get along on a half pound per week. EAT SPUDS. NOTICE TO FARMERS. All stocks of wheat remaining in farmers hands must be mar keted through regular channels before May 15. After that date wheat will be subject to requisi tion. Farmers having wheat on hand which they are unable to get to market before that time I should confer with the unckr- dettvery. The assistance and co-opera tion of all loyal citizens is asked in securing the movement of this wheat WE MUST HAVE IT. SUGAR FOR CANNING. The Food Administration has arranged to supply the needs of this great fruit producing coun try for sugar for canning and preserving. Dealers will be supplied with certificates to be signed by buy ers, reading as follows: "X hereby declare to the United States Food Administra tion that I have purchased from at an amount of pounds of sugar to be used for canning and preserving purposes only. "1 hereby agree in considera tion of tiie above, that I will limit the consumption of sugar in my household for all other purposes, to three (3) pounds or less per person per month." Mot over 100 pounds may be uurchased on any certificate. Special permit will be necessary for additional purchases, but will be granted upon proper eltAiinitfli ' ouvn Aug. These economies are vital. Every loyal person in Washing ton county owes the country a sacred personal obligation to help. The task is stupendous. -No one snouid "side step" now, Yours for our free country, CHAS. E.
