Bushels More to Help Us,
Says Rhonnda.
No word from PBurope on war®con.
ditions has so completely placed the
burden of respondibility for winning
or losmg the war upon the I'nited
States as that from lord Rhonnda
food controller of Great Britain. in a
cable to Herbert Hoove: United
States food administrator, which My
Hoover sent yvesterday to Dr. A, M
Soule, food administrator for Geor
gia, The Rhonnda cable is as fol
lows:
“Unless you are able to send the Al
liea at least 75,000,000 bushels of wheat
over and above what you have export
ed up to January 1, and in addition tc
the total exportable surplus from Can.
ada, 1 can not take the responsibilits
of assuring our people there will |y
enough food to win the war
“Imberative necessity compels i 1
to-eable you in this plain way.
“No one knows better than [ 114
the American people, regardless o
national and individual sacrifices, have
x 0 far refused nothing that is needed
for the war, but it now lies with
America to decide whether or not the
Allies in Europe shall have enough
bread to hold out until the (‘nited
States is able to throw its forces I
the field.
“1 have not minced words, beca ¥
am convinced that the American peq
ple, If they know the truth, will no
hesitate to meet the emergency.”
It is just this possible condition
which the United States food admin
istration has been trying to guard
against for months It is far and
away the plainest talk on the v
conditions in Furope, and the relative
Importance of food supplies from thig
country that has come to the people
of the country, and Federal Food Ad
ministrator Soule, belleving the prop
€r method is to take the public of his
State fully Into his confldence on the
subject, has released for publication
the Rhonnda cablegram Just as il was
received by him.
Mr. Hoover's reply to Lord Rhonn
da, a copy of which has been <ot t¢
Dr. Soule, and which the Americ:
people as a whole Georgia peonle
particular, will back to the limit of
thelr ability and capacity, beyvond an
possibility of doubt, is as follows
“We will export every pound of
grain that the American people save
from their normal consumption, We
belleve our people will not fail to meet
the emergency.”
Mr. Hoover points out further that
America must find 15,000,000 addition
al bushels for Belgian relief and 10«
000,000 bushels for C‘uba and neutral
countries, making a total of 100,000
000 bushels of wheat needed for other
than use at home.

Grocery Firm Sorry
It Broke Food Law
Alverson Bros., grocers at No. 83
South Forsyth street, yesterday were
cited by the Federal food adminia
tration here as the first merchants
10 violate Government price regula
tions.
The case was dropped when J. H.
Ewing, food administrator for Fulton
(31"‘)'. received a letter in which the
defendant store agreed to live up to
the laws in the future. The letter
published at the request of Ms. Ewing,
said:
We are sorry to'admit that we
have been selling some food prod
uets in excess of the prices agreed
by you and the merchants’ com
mittee as glving a reasonable
profit to us above cost, We here
by agree, in the future, to strictly
observe the prices so agreed upon
and published by you as reason
able, for we think best to do this
rather than suffer the just penalt
of having our place closed by the
food administration. We have not,
heretofore, fully realized the ex
tent of the autherity of the food
administration in such matters,
We further agree to observe all
rules and regulations of the ad
ministration.

Are You Feeding Horses or
Sparrows?
Do you know why the sparrows are hovering around this team?
They are waiting for a nice meal at your expense.
The horses are eating whole
grain and like many men they are
bolting their meal. They spill some
on the ground and swallow nearly a
third of the grain whole without
chewing it. ’
’
The fibrous hulls cannot be
broken up in the stomach of the
horse. Your expensive grain goes
through the intestines undigested
and is eaten by the birds. Prove this
by examining the manure.
Stop this waste by feeding a
sweet, crushed-grain balanced ration.
You will get better results with 12 to
14 pounds of sweet, crushed-grain
feed than you now obtain with 16 to
20 pounds of whole grain.

qualiied to make sweet, crushed

of this association. The mark that
identifies and places these feeds
ahead of all others is the Pilot Wheel
