Pigs and Shoats
Between the 20th and 25th, we will
have another load of choice Tennessee Pigs
and Shoats. We had fully decided some time
ago to handle but one load tms season, but
so many have been here insisting that we get
one more load that we have changed our
minds and will handle only one more load
this season. These shoats all have to be in
oculated, which adds a little more expense,
but the risk is no more than on native stock.
Don’t depend on us for boxes, for we
haven’t so much as a weighing box. Will
have just a few fat hogs.

WHEAT SHOWED
SPIRIT OF U. S.
/ *
Sacrifice to Ensure Allied Loal
Greatest Single Food
Achievement.
SUFFICIENT SUPPLY NOW.
All the Nations Will Be Able to Re
turn to Their Normal Sup
ply of White
Bread.
Overshadowing all other accomplish
ments of the American people under
the leadership of Food Administration
Is the history of wheat exports In the
past sixteen months. Our wheat ex
port program proved conclusively to
the world that America was In this
war from start to finish and willing to
.make any sacrifice that will hasten
victory or maintain the health and
strength of people overseas, upon
whom rested the heaviest weight of
lour war.
Now that pressure on ocean tonnage
Is eased by the stopping of large move
ments of troops to Europe, we may re
lax our efforts to save wheat. The ac
cumulated surplus In Australia, Argen
tine and other hitherto Inaccessible
markets will become available, and
probably no more then our normal sur
plus will have to leave this country.
We In America and the nations which
have won the world for freedom will
be ennbled to eat their normal wheat
loaf at the common table of the peo
ples of democracy.
We entered the past crop year with
a wheat supply which gnve us only
20,000,000 bushels available for ex
port. When the crop yeur ended, we
lhad sent 141,000,000 bushels of wheat
ito Europe. The American people had
saved out of their normal consumption
(121,000,000 bushels.
A survey of export figure;-' shows
,that the conservation of flour brought
'■about by the wheatless meals, wheat
less days, substitution In our kitchens
and bakeries, enabled us to send to
lour armies and the allies 33,000,000
{barrels of white flour —wheat figured
as flour. Had we exported only our
(visible surplus, we would have been
able to ship less than 4,f>00,000 barrels.
Before the Ist of December our sur
iplus hnd gone overseas, and an addi
tional 36,(100,000 bushels had been
en from the stock reserved for hoiM
consumption and added to the eurpM
already shipped to the allies. It
ed hardly possible tlmt we could
jour total exports above
bushels by July 1. Rut In
hue Lord Rhondda, then Brit ls hflraß
Controller, cabled that unl,>
could send an additional 75, ifljßjKf
bushels he could net take
unity for assuring Ids people
would be fed. The American
responded by sending 55.000.0d0 HHj
els of wheal, saved from their
.consumption, between the tlrst
year and the udvent of the new cro^J
By October 10, 1918, we had alreadw
.shipped 65,900,305 bushels since July"
|L Absolutely the only limitation upon
our wheat exports since the latest har
vest has been the scarcity of ocean
tonnage. If exports continue at the
present rate, by July 1 of next year
'we will have sent more than 237,500,-
000 bushels to Europe.
Thus are we making good America's
(pledge that the bread rations of Allied
'Europe shall be maintained.

METHODS OF DEMOCRACY.
The extent to which the United
States Food Administrator has
relied on the voluntary support
of the American people Is shown
by a statement made by the
United States Food Administra
tor speaking before the Senate
Agricultural Committee less
than three months after this
country entered the war. That
he *as Justified in his implicit
confidence In the strength of de
mocraey has been clearly reflect
ed by the measure of support we
have Seat the AHlea.
“If democracy Is worth any
thin,” Mr. Hoover declared, “we
can and these things by co-opera
tion, by stimulation, by itU-eac
rifict, by the patriotic mobilisa
tion of the brains T fib* coun
try. If K cannot he <■> la this
naaaaer it Is better that we ac

ideals, aoeaiosco In the superior

U. S. HEALTH SERVICE
i ISSUES WARNING
Increase in All Respiratory Dis
eases After the Influenza
Epidemic Probable.
Influenza Expected to Lurk for Month*.
How to Guard Against Pneumonia.
Common Cold* Highly Catching—lm
portance of Suitable Clothing—Could
Save 100,000 Live*.
Washington, D. C.—With the subsid
ence of Hie epidemic of Influenza the
attention of health officers is directed
to pneumonia, bronchitis and other
diseases of the respiratory system
whloh regularly cause a large number
of deaths, especially during the winter
season. According to Rupert Blue,
Surgeon General of the United States
Public Health Service, these diseases
will be especially prevalent this win
ter unless the people are particularly
careful to obey health Instructions.
“The present epidemic,” said Sur
geon General Blue, “has taught by bit
ter experience how readily a condition
beginning apparently as a slight cold
may go on to pneumonia and death.
Although the worst of the epidemic- Is
over, there will continue to be a large
number of scattered cases, many of
them mild and unrecognized, which
will be danger spots to be guarded
against.” The Surgeon General likened
the present situation to that after a
L great fire, saying, “No fire chief who
■understands his business stops playing
Fthe hose on the charred debris as soon
|as the flames and visible fire have dis
appeared. On the contrary, he con
tinues the water for hours and even
days, for he knows that there Is dan
ger of the Are rekindling from smol
dering embers."
“Then you fear another outbreak of
Influenza?” he was asked. “Not neces
sarily another large epidemic,” said
the Surgeon General, “but unless the
people learn to realize the seriousness
of the danger they will be compelled to
pay a heavy death toll from pneumo
nia and other respiratory diseases.
I Common Colds Highly Catching.
“It Is encouraging to observe that
people are beginning to learn that or
dinary coughs and colds are highly
catching and are spread from person
to person by means of droplets of
germ laden mucus Such droplets are
sprayed into the air when careless or
Ignorant people cough or sneeze with
out covering their mouth and nose. It
Is also good to know that people have
learned something about the value ol
fresh air. In summer, when people
are largely out of doors, the respira
tory diseases (coughs, colds, pneumo
nla, etc.) are Infrequent; In the fall,
as people begin to remain Indoors, the
respiratory diseases increase; In the
winter, when people are prone to stay
In badly ventilated, overheated rooms,
the respiratory diseases become very
prevalent
Suitable Clothing Important.
“Still another factor In the produc
tion of colds, pneumonia and other re
spiratory diseases is carelessness or ig
norance of the people regarding suit
able clothing during the seasons when
the weather suddenly changes, sitting
in warm rooms too heavily dressed or,
what is even more common, especially
among womea, dressing so lightly that
windows ure kept closed In order to be
comfortably warm. This is a very In
jurious practice.
Could Save 100,000 Lives.
“I believe we could easily save one
hundred thousand lives annually in
the United States If tfll the people
would adopt the system of fresh air
living followed, for example, In tuber
culosis sanatoria. There Is nothing
mysterious about It —no specific medi
cine, no vaccine. The important thing
is right living, good food and plenty of
fresh air.
Droplet Infection Explained In Picture*.
"The Bureau of Public Health,
Treasury Department, has just Issued
a striking poster drawn by Berryman,
the well-known Washington cartoonist
The poster exemplifies the modem
method of health education. A few
years ago, under similar circumstances,
the health authorities would have Is
sued an official dry but scientifically
accurate bulletin teaching the role of
droplet Infection In the spread of re
spiratory diseases. The only ones who
would have understood the bulletin
would have been those who already
knew all about the subject The man
In the street the plain citizen and the
many millions who toll for their living
would have had no time and no desire
to wade through the technical phrase
ology."
