HOW YOU CAN HELP
What To Save And What To Use
Prspsrwi by Foderal Pood Administration for Georgia
Tbree times each day every Ameri- ginning with the close of July,
can has opportunity to be of direct,
practical help to the men on the bat*
tie front:
W National Program
SAVE SUGAR. Two pounds per per
son per month is the American honor-
ration. Try to eat less and add to the
National surplus for canning. Do this
that the fighting force may be kept
fully supplied, and that England,
France and Italy may receive their
greatly restricted requirements.
SAVE BEEF. Food for fighting men.
Save the large carcasses for them by
restricting yourself to small cuts, by
products and trimmings; — hearts,
tongues, livers. We have enough In
crease supply of pork this summer to
permit economical expansion in its
# use, to relieve the pressure on beef.
SAVE WHEAT. Keep on saving,
though the harvest is large. Build up
war reserves by persistent conserva
tion. Without American wheat saved
from the last harvest the Allied cause
would have been lost. The margin next
year must not be so narrow.
USE FRUITS. Take advantage of
the natural sugar in fruits. Can with
out sugar, or with little sugar. Add
sugar later, when it will be more plen
tiful. Dried fruits, such as raisins,
dates and figs have much sugar in
them. Use honey,, maple products and
sirups when available.
USE VEGETABLES. Make local
vegetables fill as large a place as pos
sible In your diet, thus conserving not
only meat, and wheat, but transporta
tion and labor. Don't use canned
goods now, while the fresh are avail
able.
USE DAIRY PRODUCTS. Always
give the children plenty of milk, milk
products and eggs. Use them your
selves freely now, and thus conserve
meat for export.
USE FISH. New species are being
popularized and supplies increased. Eat
this nutritions but perishable food sev
eral times a week and let the non-
perishables go abroad.

etc., remove sugar bowls from all pub
lic tables and, effective at once, serve
no more than two half-lumps (not 2H
lumps) of sugar or one teaspoon full
of granulated eugar to each one per
son at one meal.
Certificates issued for the month of
August on all statement forms will
be held strictly to allotment figures
and resupply excesses will be held

one of the foreign relief societies ac
cording to the directions of the send

of the prisoner. To avoid unneces
sary delay and correspondence, send
thep ostal card or envelope received
from the prisoner showing his latest
purposes where Interim certificates 1 prison camp address. It will be re-
have been lesued.
The net allotment for Georgia tor
August can not be exceeded. It Is,
therefore, of particular Importance that
retail dealers handling sugar under the
Administration's regulations lend
themselves unreservedly to obtaining
proper compliance on the part of indi
vidual consumers with those regula
tions prepared tor their protection. It
la the home consumption supply which
is sought to be safeguarded by the
Food Administration, and the more
complete tffe patriotic co-operation of
the Individual that much more euccess-
ful will be the efforts of the Food
Administration In his behalf.
The Conservation Division of the
United States Food Administration es
pecially urges the saving of the fruit
and -vegetable crops by canning and
preserving now for winter uses, but
especially calls upon home canners and
preservers to effect this conservation
without the use of sugar where possi
ble. In numerous experiments It has
been found that sugar substitutes may
be successfully used and in others that
the conservation work may be car
ried forward now without the use of
sugar and the sugar added later, when
the supply Is more plentiful.
"The foregoing in its entirety Is ap
plicable to the Fourth Zone and pub
lication hereof is to be taken by all
parties concerned as official notice.”
SUGAR RULINGS ON
DINING CAR SERVICE
Atlanta, Ga.—^Responding immedi
ately to the, request of the Food Ad
ministration that the nation go on a
sugar ration of two pounds per per
son per month, in view of the serious
international sugar situation, the din
ing car service of the country has tak
en the lead by cutting down the al
lowance to the patrons to two pounds
for every 90 meals served.
One service of sugar has been limit
ed in all public eating places to two
half-lumps or one teaspoonful of
granulated. Patrons will be given
their choice of either portion, but
may not have both. The two-pounds
per month allowance may be express-
e'd in poular terms as 6 2-5 teaspoon
fuls, level full 'daily, but this must in
clude sugar used for thep reparation
of food, as well as table service.
No standard method of serving sug
ar, save the determination of definite
quantities for certain periods, has
beplt prescribed by the Food Admin
istration, but in some states the Food
Administrators havo determined upon
the quantities to be allowed to pat
rons. The. Food Administration be
lieves that in the present situation the
uniform- limited service adopted by
the dining car organizations will be
effective against thes ugar glutton by
safeguarding the interest of patrons
who wish honestly to conform to its
recommendations. Such a policy if
generally adopted, will protect pro
prietors of public eating places who
n seeking to edrry out the wishes of
:he Food Administration may be
barged by thoughtless persons with
njustice and discrimination.
Recently several dining services
onducted tests of sugar-saving on
heir care to learn whether the mini-
ym could be adhered to with cont
ort. These were uniformly auccere-
ul appeal* were made to the patriot-
i of waiter* with excellent results,
is expected that the public will
reet the new system as a patriotic,
usiness like endeavor to safeguard
interest and will cooperate to make
i plan, a success.
The present household sugar ration
i littlec ha rice of increasing is
vo pounds a month in America, two
Jnnds in England, and one and one-

GIST ISSUES WARNING
IN REGARD TO THE SOUTHERN
PINE BEETLE—TELLS HOW IT
EFFECTS TREES.
The Southern Pine Beetle is a
small brownish black beetle. It at
tacks the trunks of healthy pine and
spruce trees, causing their death by
burrowing in the inner bark. Eggs
are laid along these burrows, which
soon hatch out. The larvae or grub
feed on the inner bark until mature,
pupate, and in due time emerge as
beetles. These go to other living trpei
and the process is repeated.
There are from three to five gener
ations annually. Tho beetles begin
to emerge in March and continue to
emerge until the first of August. In
fested trees, usually die. in about a
year after being attacked.
The first external signs seen, after
a tree is infested, are, the foliage be
gins to fade, and reddish boring dust
may be found around the base of the
tree. If the foliage is infested trees
is .reddish brown and part or all fall
en, it indicates that the beetles have
emerged, and that such trees need not
be cut down. If the infested trees
die between the first of March and the
first of October the beetles will leave
them in a few week* after the foliage
begins to fade.' If infested trees be
gin to die between October first and
December first the beetles will not
emerge until March or April.
In brief the method of control is to
locate the infested trees during No
vember, December, January and Feb
ruary, and cut down and remove the
bark from the trunks before the beet
les emerge. The beetles emerge
from the trees ahowing infestation in i
the above months, during April and'
May, hence these trees should be cut
down before April first. I
Thr beetles have all emerged from
the uvea that are dead in August
Watch the trees around these next
fall and winter so aa to locate the new
ly infested trees. If a tree is cut
down for cordwood or killed by light
ning it will attract the beetles for
three or four miles and may become
the center of infestation, unleaa re-'
moved before April 1st '
turned if requested. Write plainly
your own name and address as send
er. This information is given to the
society in Europe to be sent by it to
thep risoner with ther elief.
It is usual to send amounts month
ly as follows: for privates, from $5 (
and not to exceed $25; for officers,
from $5 and not to exceed $50. It is
advisable that food instead of money
be sent to prisoners of war. While it
it not possible to send money or pack
ages direct from this country to allied
prisoners, the desired results maye be
accomplished by following the
structions given above. The Ameri
can Red Cross assumes no responsibil
ity in attending to these matters.
No letter should be sent to the
American Red Cross to be forwarded.
Letters should not be longer than
two pages and should be written on
one side of the paper, enclosed in a
plain envelope, properly addressed
and marked as follows:
On the front of the envelope should

It has come to the attention of the

in Austria are very badly in neod of
extra food and clothing to be sent by
their relatives and friends.
Out of thel ast harvest the Ameri

THE UNIVERSAL CAR
Have you looked over the Ford
Sedan, that attractively equipped
and comfortable enclosed car? Cool
in summer, warm in winter, just
right for every day in the year. Has
every advantage of the touring car
as a family car with the additional
sure protection to clothing and com*
fort from storms and inclement
weather. Just as desirable and ser
viceable on the farm as it is to town
folks. It is the most all-round ser-
'' vi<:eable car of the day. Won’t you
contain and look the Sedan over?

YOUR MONEY
It seems to us that up to this season tire-buying has
been a gamble—You paid your money—but you didn’t
know what you’d bought until your tire had run its mil
eage. Sometimes you won—and sometimes you didn’t.
Goodrich has taken the gamble out of tire buying I
When we sell our customers Goodrich Tires we know
what we’re selling. For Goodrich Tires are Road Test
ed Tires.
Six big fleets of Goodrich Test Cars battered their
way over 1,000,000 miles in 1917—more than 4,000,000
tire miles.
They not only proved beyond doubt that Goodrich
Tires as then made had the strength the stamina, the
endurance to roll up big mileage under adverse condi
tions—
But they learned new things about tire construc
tion—things embodied now in the tires you buy from
us.
These features of strength and endurance you can
buy only in Goodrich Road Tested Tires and Tubes.
