Are Farmers Less Thoughtful Than Squirrels, Asks Weidner

Are Wayne county fanners as thoughtful as squirrels? Unusual weather conditions have seriously Injured seed corn and farmers of the county and state are urged to save well matured corn for seed corn From present indications Wayne county's corn crop next year will be seriously curtailed by the lack of old seed corn and farmers are urged by County Food Administrator Weidner to make every effort to save their old seed corn. . - "Squirrels store enough food for their winter needs," the food administrator says. "Are Wayne farmers less thoughtful?" "Early frosts ruined all late corn and but little good .corn was sufficiently matured to harvest early. The result Is that there is not In sight sufficient seed corn to plant the 1918 crop." Farmers throughout the county and state are urged to feed no old corn. They are urged to save the well matured fertile seed from the 1916 crop. County Food Administrator Weidner also issued a statement Monday calling for the observance of a "molosses Christmas." " . No candies should be eaten except

those made of glucose, maltose honey and molosses. Hard candles and piece goods commonly sold children should not be eaten. "The children's desire for candy in the holiday season can easily be met with molasses and nut candles," says the food administration. "Gift candies should be made from the sugar substitutes and candies made of cane and beet sugar should be unwelcome presents. Save sugar for the little children of France and Belgium because they do not have even molasses and syrups we can always get," the food administration pleads.

Vorwaerts Renews A ttGcks on Kaiser

AMSTERDAM. Dec 24, Th Vorwaerts, the Socialist organ, reported to have been ordered to suspend publication for three days, appeared unexpectedly Sunday. It says its suspension was due to criticism of the provisioning of war invalids under the heading: "Let them go beg." The Vorwaerts prints prominently a defense of Herr Von Waldow food coutroller. It quotes him as denying having excused or tolerated certain conditions alleged, but as admitting that illicit trading has assumed proportions which threaten to endanger the food supply. ,
