COMPANY GIVES TEN MILLIONS
. NEW YORK, Oct. 2. Just how many millians of dollars were invested in liberty bonds yesterday when the campaign for subscriptions to America's second war loan was launched in New York could not be learned early today but is variously estimated
at from $23,000,000 to $50,000,000. ,
While a large over-subscription is hoped for, the campaign managers are taking no chances of a failure to place at least one-half of the $3,000,000,000 issue in the New York federal reserve bank district. Posters that both invite and demand subscriptions are being distributed and the network of committees constituting a vast army of workers, is organized to carry the meaning of the loan into each home in the district. Today it was announced that still another army of workers was workers to be known a3 the "Rainbow workers to be known as the "Rainbaw Division," to thoroughly canvass each industry. Subscriptions thus far reported to the liberty loan headquarters range in size from $50, for which there were thousands of subscriptions, to $10,000,P00 by the New York Life Insurance company. The largest individual purchase was for $250,000 by John B. Manning. . Other lara;e subscriptions Include $5 C0i. 000 each by the Southern Pacific and the Union Pacific Railroad companies, and $2,500,000 by the Manufacturers' Trust company of Brooklyn.

GARMENTS MUST BE IN BY SATURDAY
WASHINGTON, D. C.
Dearest Edy:
A neighbor of mine told me this
morning that she didn't see any use signing the Food Pledge now because she didn't do it when the Food Administration first published the card in the newspapers a month or so ago. Did you ever hear of such an absurd excuse? Suppose some soldier should decline to fight because he wasn't in the first draft. There would be just about as much sense in it. Of course the right time for every woman to have signed the Food Pledge was when the Food Administration first asked it. for the request was not made until the need was vital. But that does not affect the fact that the need grows every day. It will never be too late to co-operate with the Food Administration as long as the burden of feeding the world rests upon America. That's going to be not only the length of this war, but through the years of reconstruction after the war. Unless every housekeeper does her part, the world is going to actually suffer for food. It seems to me there is quite enotfgh suf
fering now without adding the horrors of starvation. To prevent such a thing we have got to study the "Home Card" suggestions and follow them as closely as possible. Everybody ought to know that they were not made lightly. They are all based on the accurate calculations made by food experts of the world's food needs.
Out of the long list of food products we use daily It does not seem much of a hardship to economize in five. Do you think so, Edy dear? Specially since we must have these five things to feed our soldiers in France; to feed the soldiers of our Allies; to insure the liberty of the world. The new "Home Card" tells the whole story in its first paragraph which says: "Our problem Is to feed our Allies this winter by sending them as much food as we can of the most concentrated nutritive value in the least shipping space. These foods are wheat, beef, pork, dairy products and sugar." The Food Administration makes it clear at once that this is to be accomplished not by hoarding or by skimping but by substituting food products that cannot be sent to the soldiers in the trenches for those that can be sent. We are not asked. to limit ourselves in any way that will affect health. Neither are we asked to greatly change our food habits. Referring to our problem of feeding our own soldiers and our Allies this winter, the new "Home Card" says: "Our solution is to eat less of these
(wheat, beef, pork, dairy products and
sugar )and more of other foods of which we have an abundance, and to waste less of all foods." The schedule for doing this brings
no hrdship to any one. To begin with the wheat. We must send more wheat i
to our Allies because "England, Italy,
France and Belgium taken together
import, in peace time, forty percent of their breadstuffs. But now with their reduction in harvest they must import sixty percent. We must increase our normal export sumlus of 88,000,000 bushels to 220,000,000 bushels." The Food Administration goes on to remind us that it can be done in but one way, by economizing and substituting. The plan for this is to have one wheatless meal a day; to use corn,
j oats, rye, barley, or mixed cereal rolls, j muffins, and bread in place of white
Dreaa, ceriainiy ior one meai ana, n possible, for two. We are asked to eat less pastry, In the case of ordering white bread from the baker it is urged that we do so a day in advance that he may not bake beyond his needs. We are told to cut the loaf on the table and only as required, and to use all stale bread for toast and cooking. If everybody in the United States uses just one pound less of wheat flour per week the Food Administration assures us that there will be no
difficulty in meeting the wheat need of our allies.
w en, aear gin, i can do "my Dit" m the wheat conservation plan without much trouble to myself, and with certainly no Inconvenience to my family. Tomorrow I'll write you more of the new. "Home" Card." In case you dd not understand my use of the word "new" let me tell you that the new card differs in no essential from the original card which was distributed by the Food Administration in the early summer. The need was at that time pre? sented in "six Saves." Some women construed "save" to mean hoardinjs which was not, and is not, the idea at all. The new "Home Card" tells just what the American woman is asked to do to help win this war, and tells it so clearly and helpfully that no one can fall to see that the whole program is merely one of substitution, without any necessity to skimp or to hoard.
In every instance the substitution asked is simple, and makes no hardship, a mighty good thing for every woman to know, war or no war! Love to Will and the babies, from Your devoted sister, (Signed) FRANCES.
