in openlnc his statement!

"The strength of a peoph; is dlrectlyj next fall and winter vV. be beyond dependent upon th quantity and thi the reach of the average purse.

vjuduiy o i ;is tooa supply. i'.ariy in the great -war a statement was made that the struggle would be won by the nation that had the last dollar. Today, after three years of indeterminate effort. It ; apparent that the war will e won by the nation that has the last bushel of corn. Today the farmer who produces food and the housewife who prepares it ar the mainstays of the army at the front." He spolce of the prospect for a short wheat crop, and said that the American people must, learn to substitute other grains and cereals for wheat corn being especially favored as a subetitute. The people of Europe, he said, cannot "Use American corn because they ?o not know what to do with it. Therefore, the people of this country must use more corn and send the wheat to our allies. "Indiana wilt not waste food," he aid. "Her people realize already what must be done in conserving the food eupply, The Department of Agriculture has estimated that the United States wastes 5700,000.000 worth of food annually. This, Barnard said, would be reduced at 50. per cent. -3?e said: "The interest in the conservation of food is so widespread and the desire among housewives to prevent waste is so unanimous that I sometimes doubt the. necessity for super-effort in inoculating the principles of thrift. The women are the guardians of the food supply, and so far as their knowledge allows them they are already seeing to it that waste is stopped. The important thing, then, is to teach them how to change eating habits: how to tise cereals in place of vegetables and meats; how to substitute a cheap cereal for a dear one; how to use new foods 3ik cow peas and soy beans; how to use vegetable oils, especially corn oil In cooking instead of olive oil or butter fat; in a word, how to feed" the family efficiently and well at a minimum cost. This work is a matter of education. It has been easy, by preach

ing patriotism. to increase crop J acreage. It is quite impossible bv the) fame means to change eating habits I that have been formed through genera-1 tions. in the first place, n is hard to convince the, average man or woman'

mat :t is practical to make a decided change, in the food staples.. Many men want meat and potatoes at the end of their day's work. If they are. fed cereals of quite the same food value they feel that they are not properly fed." Mr. Barnard spoke of the conservation campaigns that have been started through the churches, the schools, the grocers, the bakers, the women clubs of the state, the hotels and restaurants and other agencies. All of these agencies, he said, are giving valuable to the conservation movement and do!ng their bit" to save food as much possible. He spoke especially of the njggestions which he recently made to grocers as to how they can ensourage economy on the part of their rustomers. and of the cordial reception vhich the bakers gave to the food department's order putting a stop to the practice of retail dealers returning unsold bread to bakers, thus causing- a heavy waste. Motels, he said, have cut out many irl:cles from their menus, reducing tlii variety of foods offered. They have also reduced the portions served eause formerly the portions were a ger than were necessary for any patron. Cooks, chefs and "hotel pro". sr'.etors, he said, are "doing their bit." Special effort is being made to elimilato from menus all meats from imnature animals, such as veal, lamb and pi 2. Mr. Barnard encouraged the more

0. S. DELAYS STE CO. Sill Were U. S. Steel Held Monopoly, Govrnment Orders Must Be Canceled.

In ordering the big anti-trust cases Steel, Harvester. Lehigh Valley a'ld Philadelphia & Reading back on the docket for re-argument, the Vnited States Supreme court has definitely postponed all attempts at trust busting until the clos of the war. This is thte interpretation placed on the court's order, according to Washington advices. "Members of the court were unanimous in the conclusion that any dissolution of existing large organizations would make the nation less ef

ficient in war against Germany; that, it would weaken the arm of the government in its actual military and naval operations in addition to causing industrial confusion domestically," said a dispatch from the capital. "The department of Justice itself ia known to have fceen deeply concerned lest a decision might be handed down on the appeal of the government's suit against the United States Steel corporation. If the court toy any chance had taken the view that the steel corporation Is a monopoly, all government contracts for steel and armor plate with this corporation would have had to be canceled. "The Supreme court has ordered all trust cases back on the docket for reargument as matter of public policy. While no explanation is given, the views of the members of the court a'e pretty well understood here. Members of the court are as mindful cf" the needs for national efficiency as any other officers of the government. "There will be no further arguments in the court during the present term, which will end In June. The earliest time the cases could be reargued would be next October, but If the war continues until that time there would te no reargument then."
