THE BEMIDJI PIONEER A national grain threshing division has been created under the federal food administrator, Herbert C. Hoover. The division is attached to the Na- tional Grain Corporation, which is headed by J. H. Barnes, former grain- buyer of Duluth, and Capt. K. D. Hequembourg, with offices at 42 Broad- way, New York, will direct the affairs ob the division. . 'The aim is to organize the thresh- ermen of the verious grain states:for the purpose of saving every possible kernel -of ‘grain in harvesting and threshing operations. Sk 'D. B. Bassett of ~ University Farm has been appointed by the federal food administrator for Minnesota .to have charge of the work in Minne- sota. Mr. Bassett requests the federal food administrator of each county and the county agricultural agent to eelect a competent thresherman to act with them as, a county committee. Threshermen to Sign Cards. One of the first duties of the county committee will be to, furnish the state officq with a complete list of thresh- ermen who are actively engaged in threshing in their county. thresherman will be asked ‘through the county committee to sign a pledge card and mail # to the federal food administrator. In return he will re- celve a certificate of membership signed by Herbert C. Hoover, the na- tional food administrator.- The pledge card and gertificate will indicate that the ‘thresherman agrees to do all he can to save grain ‘and co-operate with’ tha administration. A Every man who. expects to ‘operate a threshing rig in Minnesota this fall 1s.urged to get his machine in first- clasg repair before starting to thresh. Repairs will in many cases have to be ordered from the factory. threshermen will go over their ma- chines this next week and get: the machines in first-class running drder, they will be doing their part. Thresh- ing manufacturers and implement men are very desirous that orders* for repairs be sent in immediately so ‘as to give them time.to get the repairs out. Any trouble in securing repairs should be reported to the county com- wmittee, If the .county committee can- not handle it it should then be re- ferred to the state office. Manufacturers to Help. The threshing machine manufactur- Every: If the| ers have all pledged themselves to do all in their power to assist. There may be some machines that will need expert attention. If this be true, ap- plication should be made to the coun- ty committee and if the, committee cannot furnish experts they should ask assistance of the state office. Application for extra labor should] be made to the county office and if they cannot furnish it they will: tn turn take it up with:the state office. Fuel Situation Watched, A ruling has been secured from the department at Washington placing fael for threshing on the preferred list. This means that the railroads, now under the gupervision of the gov- ernment, will be asked ¢o rush the fuel supply for threshing through even though it means ‘the delay of other freight. 5 5 The state department is taking steps to urge the farmer tq shock his grain properly, rake the stubble fleld where much loose grain is left, and if the grain is to be stacked have it stacked properly so that the thresherman can do a good job. 'Suggestions regard- ing the handling of separator and shocking and stacking of grain will be mailed from time to time to the county committees and published in the county papers. “ The whole object-of this campaign is to awaken the thresherman and the farmer to the necessity of saving every kernel of grain possible. ; Annual 'Loss Is Large, ’ 1t the ‘average 108s 15 2 per cent only, the loss of wheat alone-in the state of' Minnesota would be more than one million bushels, which would be worth more than two million dol- ars at the present price of wheat. If half this can be saved, the farmer sand thresherman can save for Min- nesota in wheat alone over one mil- lion dollars’ worth of igrain. A ‘simi- lar ‘saving. of other graing may be made. The county committees will receive full instructions as to method of ac- tion in case of trouble, and thresher- men are requested to apply first:to the county committees. If the coun. ty committees cannot hdlp, :appeal should be made to the stateoffice. All correspondence to the state of- fice should be addressed to L. B. Bas sett, University Farm, St. Paul. m A Loaf of Bread Using No Wheat Flour Here it is, ladies! The Daily Pioneer is in 4receipt fi'om the United States department of agriculture the recipe of a wheatless loaf of bread, a 100 per cent wheatless substitute loaf. = Here’s the process: (1) Al of these—1% cups liquid, 1 tablespoon corn syrup, % cake | yeast, 2 teaspoons salt, 1 whole egg; (2) with one of these—3 3-8 cups barley, 2% cups ground rolled oats, and (8) one of these—214 cups corn flour, 2 1-8 cups rice flour, 2% ‘cups sweet potatoflour, 2'1-8 cups (scant) topioca flour. Make a sponge of mdterials undet 1 (except egg) and. one of in- gredients used from 2 and 3. Sponge should stand in warm place until very light, at least two hours. Work in balance of substitute mixture when sponge is light. pan. Brush top of loaf with melted fat. in loaf pan in hot oven for one hour. A s e s e e T e Disease Due to Dietetic Errors.” I have come to the conclusion that more than half the disease which em- bitters life is due to avoidable errors in dlet . . . and that more mischief, in the form of actual disease, of impaired vigor, and of shortened life, accrues to civilized man from erroneous habits of eating’ than from the habitual use of alcoholic drink, considerable as I know that evil to be.—Sir Henry Thomp- son, M, D. Why Women Bear Pain. ‘Women bear pain better than men, as is well known, but Dr. E. O'Neill Kane says that their tranquillity is often deceptive, being stoical submis- sion rather than lack of feeling. He believes women are less often affected by shock than men; they endure sur- gical operations better and pass under anesthesia more rapidly, quietly and safely. DOINGS OF THE VAN LOONS YoUu ARE.
