M HOME FOOD MOD
PHOMULGATED 81 SOULE
Tells What to Eat or Not to
Eat on “Less
Days”
Dr. Andrew M. Soule, federal food ad
ministrator for Georgia, is promulgating ’
the new food conservation "home card” I
adopted by- the United States food ad- '
ministration in conformity with Presi
dent Wilson's proclamation of January
26. The curd defines specifically the 1
further conservation measures which
the administration has made Imme
diately effective, which it is proper that
families of the state become familiar ;
with at once. The wording of the card
is as follows:
Wheatlesx Day*
"Have two whcatlc** days (Monday and
Wednesday > in every week and one w beatless
meal in every day.
"Explanation: On when Hess day* and in
wbeatless meals of other days, use no erack- >
er*, pat try. ma. antni. breakfast food or other
cereal fcod containing wheat and use no wheat -
flour in any form except the small amount
that may be neeued for thickening soups or
gravies or for a binder in corn bread and other
cereal breads. A* to bread, if you bake It at
home use other cereal* ihan wheat and if you
buy it. buy only war bread. Our object is that
we should buy and consume one-third less wheat
products than we did last year.
Meatless Days
"Have one meatless day (Tuesday! in every j
week and one meatless meal in every da.'.
Hare two porkless days (Tuesday and Satur
dayi in every week.
••Explanation: Meatless means without any I
eattle, hog or sheep products. On other days r
use mutton and lamb in preference to beef or
pork. I‘orkless means without jiork. bacon,
bam, lard or pork product* fresh or preserved.
L'se fl»b. poultry and eggs. A* a nation we ‘
eat and waste nearly twice as much meat as we
nee*!.
Every Day Save Fat
’•Make every day a fat saving day (butter, i
iard. lard substitute*, etc.)
"Explanation: Fry less, bake, broil, or stew
foods instead. Save meat drippings, use them
and vegetable oils for cooking instead of butter.
Buter has food values vital to children. There
fore give it to them. Ise it only on the table.
Waste no soap. It ts made from fat. Be
direful of ail fat*. We use and waste two and
a half times s much fat as we need.
Every Day Save Sugar
"Make every day a sugar saving day. I se. ,
less sugar, less sweet drinks and candy eon i
taming sugar in war time. A* a nation we ;
have used twice as much sugar as we need. !
Use fruit, '.-getabW and potatoes abundantly.
“Explanation: These foods are healthful and
plentiful an-f at the same time partly take the I
pla<-e of other foods which we must save. Raise I
all you can for home use.
“Ise milk wisely.
•‘Explanation: Use all the milk. Waste no
part of It. Tne children must have whole
milk. Use sour and skim milk in cooking and >
for cottage cheese.
Hoarding Food
"Anyone buying and holding a large supply
of food now than in peace time except foods I
canned, dried or preserved in the home Is help i
ing to defeat the food administration in ita
attempt to secure a just division of food and
the establishment of fair prices. The food
hoarder is working against the common good
and even against the very safety of the coun
try. Hoarding food in households is both self- l
!sh and unnecessary. Th* government ia pro
tecting tlx* food supply of ita people.”

0.5. AMBASSADOR
MCIS IS TARGET
OF RUSSIAN THREAT
Anarchists Declare They Will
Hold Hirn Personally Re-!
sponsible for Liberty of Alex
ander Berkman
WASHINGTON. Jan. 30.—Ambassa-|
dor Francis at Petrograd cabled the!
state department today that a group of
Russian anarchists had notified him he
would be held personally responsible
for the safety of Alexander Berkman
and Emma Goldman, under prison sen
tence in the United States for violating
the draft law.
PETROGRAD. J... . Delayed.)— I
An ultimatum declaring the American i
ambassador "would be held personally
responsible for the life and liberty of
Alexander Berkman" was forwarded to
David R. Francis by the anarchist group
of sailors and workmen at Helsingfors
today.
The I;ussian terrorists have been I
deeply interested in the prosecution in I
the United States of Berkman and Em- |
ma Goldman, the two American "red” |
leaders for conspiracy to defeat the se-i
lective service law. Coincidentally with
news of this action from Helsingfors |
came word of Bolsheviki successes in I
putting down the revolution in Finland. I
The Petrograd agency quoted Foreign !
Minister Trotzky as writing the Fin
nish senate, stating he favored with
drawal of Russian troops from Fin
land. Trotzky asserted that, counter
revolutionists in Finland had attacked
the Bolsheviki red guards, forcing the
latter to defend themselves.
David K. Francis. American ambassa- i
dor to Russia, is a former governor of |
Missouri, a former secretary of the in- I
terior (under President Cleveland) and
president of the St. bouts Centennial
Expositon of 1904. He is one of the |
best known Missourians and was ap
pointed American envoy to Petrograd
March 6. 1916. Francis is sixty-eight
years old.
Alexander Berkman for years has
been a leading exponent in the United
States of anarchy and "direct action’’-
methods. He has been almost constant
ly in trouble with federal, state and
municipal authorities for his bold es
pousal of those beliefs.
At the present time Berkman faces a |
prison sentence for conspiracy to defeat
the selective service law. His appeal i
to the supreme court of the United'
States was rejected.
Berkman and Emma Goldman, the lat
ter known as the ‘‘queen of the reds,”!
publish Mother Earth and other anarch-j
istic publications. They have frequent-'
ly been charged with participation ini.
bomb plot? and Berkman a number of j
yMurw ago was convicted of an attempt
on the life of Henry. C. Frick.
Distinction should.be sharply made be-1
tween the anarchists and Bolsheviki.
Helsingfors is in Finland about 250
miles distant from Petrograd. Copen-'
hagen dispatches yesterday reported the j
city captured by tKe Bolsheviki from
the Fnish counter revolutionists.
Would Ask Trotzky
If He Fosters Threat
WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.—The an
archist threat to hold United States
Ambassador Francis at Petrograd re-;
sponsible for the life and liberty of j
Alexander Berkman, jailed for combat-1
ing the draft law, is confirmed in olfi- |
cial dispatches to this government.
What action will be taken in the case j
has not been determined. Inquiries of
the Bolsheviki government in Petrograd;
(it is pcinted out it was not the Bo’.-'
sheviki who registered the threat;
against Francis) to determine whether
such action is countenanced by the ;
benine-Trotsky regime, are held prob- j
able.
Meantime, word from Francis explain
ing the exact situation in Petrograd is
awaited with interest and concern.
Petrograd Paper Prints
Tirade Against America
WASHINGTON. Jan. 30.—An anrach-;
ist newspaper published in Petrograd,
advices to the state department says,
has recently published an inflammatory;
article proposing that Ambassador
Francis be held personally responsiblej
for the safety and freedom of Alexander .
Berkman, who with Emma Goldman, Is
about to begin serving two years in a
federal penitentiary for conspiring:
against the select service law.
Recent dispatches from Ambassador \
(Francis made no further reference to
the subject.
Policeman of Rome
Suspended Because
He Criticised Wilson
ROME, Ga„ Jan. 30.—Charged with
criticisms of President Wilson and his
conduct of the war, A. J. King, for many
years a Rome policeman, was today
suspended from the force by Chief '
Simmons. Charges were filed by J. P. .
Jones, local representative of the Na- '
tional Council of Defense, and King will
be tried by the city commission Thurs
day night. Hf is accused of having
termed the president "a worse traitor
than Benedict Arnold,*’ but denies this
language.
Says Husband Sold Her
For sls; Seeks Children
<
DALTON. Ga., Jan. 29.—Swearing on
the stand in superior court here, that
her husband, Homer Ragan, had sold
her to a man in Lindale, by the name
of Jeff Henderson, for 115, Mrs. Ragan
created a sensation in the habeas cor
pus proceedings brought by her to ob
tain possession of her children.
She told a dramatic story of alleged
ill treatment at the hands of her hus
band, which culminated in his selling
her. She swore that when she learned
that she had been sold and had seen
the check Henderson gave her husband,
she left him. She tried to see her chil
dren. but was turned away, she said.
Other evidence in the ease, however,
j caused the court to permit Ragan to
keep the children, many witnesses tes
tifying to his being a hard-workingman
who well supported the childre.n. Aside
from the wife’s testimony, the evidence
all tended to show that the husband
should retain the children.

PLANT IN MICHIGAN
DESTROVED Bl EXPLOSION
Fire Follows With Damage of
Hundreds of Thousands
of Dollars
MARQUETTE, Mich.. Jan. 29.—An ex
plosion followed by a fire early today,
which destroyed the alcohol refining
plant, the primary building and a se
ries of condensers of the Pioneer Iron
Furnace company, owned by the Cleve
land Cliffs Iron company, of Cleveland,
Ohio, caused damage estimated at J500,-
000.
First reports of the explosion said a
number of lives had been lost, but at
daylight it was believed there was no
loss of life and that only two men hart
been injured, although the casualty list
cannot be definitely determined until
| the company rolls have been checked
; over.
For a time the fire threatened to de
stroy the entira plant, a portion of
which is employed in manufacturing al
cohol and the ground chemicals of ex
plosives for the United States and the
allied governments, but after a two
! hours’ fight the flames were brought
I under control. The plant, which covers
several acres of ground, is situated
I 1 1-2 miles from this city.
■ The police believe that the explosion
I was caused by an incendiary, but the
officials of the company declined to ex
; press an opinion as to the cause.
At 10 o'clock this morning company
' officials said there was no loss of life
in the explosion. That there was no
sefious loss of life probably was due
to the fact that most of the employes
in the alcohol refining plant were in
the boiler -oom eating lunch.

To General Pershing
THOMASVILLE, Ga., Jan. 30.—There
j Is absolutely no truth in the report that

1 married to General Pershing, was the
positive statement here this morning
by her father, George S. Patton, who
with his w-ife and daughter, have ar

when a passenger car on a train going
I south on the Gainesville Midland rail
' road turned over near here. The track

2,000,000 Men Available
Under 21-Year-Old Bill
WASHINGTON. Jan 29. —Two million
men will be available for the draft in

have become twenty-one since June 5.
[ Frovost Marshal General Crowder told
I the senate military committee today.
This will make it unnecessary to go
I outside of class 1 to get the army, he
i predicted.
Crowder- told the committee the bill
will not exemtp men who have passed
the age of thirty-one since -Tune 5. Secre
tary Raker told the committee he

“I am surprised the secretary should

SLAIN BY GERMANS
IN RAID ON SECTOR

night. Captain Kingman was crawling
over No Man’s Land in a night recon
noissance and in the darkness an Amer
ican soldier on the firing step of the
trench thought he might be an enemy.
Discovering his mistake, the soldier
hurried out and helped carry the wound
ed officer in.
All the shells which claimed* these
victims exploded in trenches and sup
port areas. |
One of those killed wa§ an interpreter
—an e.x-cook at the Blackstone hotel in
Chicago.
He was accompanying a colonel on an
inspection tour of the trenches and was
blown up by a shell as he stood at the
very entrance to the colonel's dugout.
The colonel had just entered the under
ground. The interpreter was close be
hind and was in the act of descending
the steps when struck.
The colonel rushed up to find his com
panion mangled and dead.
On one other recent occasion a large
shell screamed through the air and ex
ploded in the center of a little knot of
soldiers. Three were instantly killed
and two were wounded. This was sev
eral days ago. An ambulance was called
out of the dim misty dawn and rushed
the wounded men six miles to the rear
of the trenches where the field hospital
is located.
There orderlies hurried out and ten
derly lifted down the stretchers bear
ing the maimed men inside. One
stretcher carrier a soldier from Wash
ington state, apparently about „twenty
years of age. He was taken to the op
erating room, where the white-robed
surgeons saw at a glance that he had
only one chance in a million to survive.
An operation was quickly decided upon.
The soldier had a frightful shell
wound in his abdomen. Despite every
care, the boy died within fifteen min
utes after his arrival.
Surgeons carefully placed his belong
ings in an envelope for return to his
parents. They included three photo
graphs. One was apparently that of a
little sister of the dead man. The girl
was leading three big norses to a
drinking trough.
Another American soldier recently
wounded was a sergeant from Winches
ter, Tenn. He was crawling in a shallow
trench at daylight when he came in
sight of an enemy sniper. The Boche
promptly plugged him in the shoulder.
"The shot bowled me over into a deep
water-filled shell hole,” the sergeant said
today from his cot in the hospital. “My
captain pulled me out or I would have
drowned.
"The minute I got out I reached for
my pistol and found my right arm help
less. Therefore, I turned my belt around
and grabbed the pistol with my left
hand. I wanted to get a revenge shot
at that sniper, but I couldn’t discover
him. I’m all right—l’ll be back in the
line soon.”
One Boche shell the other day struck
a cook shack in a battered little town
within the support area. A cook who
was baking a birthday cake for an of
ficer was instantly killed. Seven men
in all have been wounded recently, but
of these six were reported to have suf
fered accidental injuries.
One man from New York emerged
from the trenches today with frost
bitten feet—and yet smiling through
his mud-coated hair. -
"I’ll bet I’ll catch the Dickens for
getting my feet frosted,” he said.
"What’s become of all those tobacco
funds we read about being raised all

all such mills (those operating under
hydro-electric power) to shut down on
Mondays prescribed in the order.”
The telegrams, says Dr. Hardman,
pointed out that it is “most important on
transportation” that the mills shut down
and concluded by saying: “We do not
believe mills can operate burning only
sufficient coal to prevent freezing.”
On the strength of this, said Dr. Hard
man. in view of the fact that the na
tional administration had expressed the
desire that mills using hydro-electric
power “shut down” and had stated that
such a step was "most important on
transportation,” he ruled that they must
close, believing in the light of the tele
gram, that such was the wish of the gov
ernment.
The official announcement that plants
may operate without fuel was made fol
lowing a conference in Washington Wed
nesday afternoon between Dr. Garfield
and a delegation of Georgia mill owners.
Dr. Garfield explained that the hyro
electric mills would be expected to store
that portion of their products manu
factured on Mondays during the period
embraced under the closing order. This
precaution is taken as a measure to
prevent congestion of freight traffic,
which is one consideration influencing
the fuel administration to designate
"fuelless” Mondays.

"Six hundred and fifty thousand bush
els of peanuts nave been sold through

of the state prison commission Thurs
day, after a trip to his home, in Ter

rell county farmers through the sale of
this one crop, to say nothing of the
other products that have been raised In
profusion this season,” he continued.
Mr. Rainey declares that about one
fourth of the peanut crop is still in the
hands of the farmers and that the total
value of Terrell countys peanuts is in
the neighborhood of a million dollars.

FITE OF NATION HANGS
ON SOOTH'S FOOD CROPS
B. H. Groover Makes Strong
Appeal at the Agricultural
Workers’ Meeting
That the fate of the nation in the
outcome of the war largely depends on
the food production of the south, was
* declared Wednesday morning at the
opening session of the Associaion of
Southern Agricultural Workers, meet
ing at the Piedmont, by B. H. Groover,
assistant commissioner of agriculture
in the state of Georgia, who urged the
thirty delegates to work for greater
food crops in their states.
Georgia, he said, had made notable
incvases in the production of corn, pea
nuts and other crops in 1917 and that
it was freely predicted that it would
be even greater in 1918.
“We should not allow the farmers of
the southern states to become lax in
food production because cotton Is bring
ing high prices,” he said. “It is impor
tant that the south bestir itself in this
great food crisis of the world’s hia
tory, not only for itself but also for the
world at large.”
Mayor Candler welcomed the aeie
' gates to Atlanta, telling them that he
I envied them their opportunity to dis
seminate knowledge and perform, great
service for the world during the war
and after.
“The opportunity that lies before
you,” he said, “is glorious. I know
that you will take advantage of It to
; your credit in service to your people
and the world.”
Dr. C. C. Thach, president of Alabama
. Polytechnic association, who was sched
uled to deliver the response to the ad
dresses of welcome, was absent, anfi
response was made by Prof. C. B. Wil
liams, of the North Carolina Agricul
tural and Engineering college.
General discussion of the require
ments regarding the naming of ingre
dients entering into fertilizers and of
farm legislation featured the opening
meeting. The association will be in
session three days.
