GRASSHOPPERS THICK THIS FALL
Earl) Wheat and Youmr Alfalfa Are
Being Damaged.
Swarms of grasshoppers are doing
considerable damage to early wheat
and young alfalfa in many Missouri
counties. The hoppers are unusually
numerous this fall and they may con
tinue to do injury to crops until the
first killing frost.
The grasshoppers may be effectively
and cheaply destroyed by sowing
poison bran mash over the infested
fields. T. J. Talbert of the University
of Missouri College of Agriculture has
sent out directions for making this
poison mash.
For best results the poison bran
should be sown broadcast early in the
morning, before sunrise, in strips
from 12 to 15 feet wide, over the
field to be treated. It is usually ad
visable to sow the poison bran broad
cast along the fence rows or weed
and grass grown ravines from which
the hoppers emerge during the early
morning hours. There is no danger
of poisoning birds or livestock. The
grasshoppers are usually killed in
from 6 to 48 hours after eating poison.

examination was sent out with those
in the first quota, appeared before the
local draft board yesterday for his

RAVENEL HOME OX LEAVE
Tomorrow 3Injor In Medical Corps
Will Go to Washington.
Major M. P. Ravenel returned to
Columbia last night on a ten-day
leave of absence from Fort Riley. To
morrow he will leave for Washington,
D. C, to attend a meeting of the
American Public Health Association.
Major Ravenel, professor in medi
cal bacteriology and preventive medi
cine In the University, left last Au
guft to join the Medical Corps at Fort
Riley. The physical training given to
the Medical Corps was characterized
by Major Ravenel as being thorough.
The technical training, map reading,
drawing, road sketching and reading
nf contour maps, was not so hard, he
says.
There are S00 men in the Medical
Corps now in Fort Riley. Since June,
there has been a total of 1,800 trained
thire and all of them are volunteers
who are losing by giving their serv
ices to the Government, or stand a
good chance to lose.
"Camp Funston," said Major Rav
enel, "has 3S.000 men of the National
Army. General Wood sas that it
will be May before they are fully
equipped. There is no heat in the
camp. The idea of a central plant
has been abandoned and the unit plan
adopted. They are supposed to have
heat by December 1, but that means,
said General Wood, January 1. Cover
for the beds is scarce and the men
are crowded into close quarters. The
water supply has been condemned
and is now being chlorinated, or
boiled."
There is no shortage of uniforms or
shoes. Major Ravenel says. Sickness
amounts to seven-tenths of 1 per
cent and the larger part of this is
minor ills.
Missouri Football Team
Will Meet a Strong Eleven
from Manhattan.
The University of Missouri football
team has a hard game ahead of it to
morrow afternoon when it meets the
Kansas State Agricultural team on
Rollins Field. The Kansas team won
from the Oklahoma A. and M. team last
Saturday, indicating its strength.
There are many veteran players in the
Aggie line-up and the Tigers will have
a hard struggle to achieve a victory.

Athletic Director W. F. Meanwell an
nounced today that the game would
start promptly at 3 o'clock as has
been the custom in previous years.
The Tiger line which has been ad
mittedly the weakest that has been in
action at Missouri for jears, has not
been changed for tomorrow's game,
despite the fact that Schulte spent all
week trying to develop three heavy
new recruits into finished linesmen.
'Chittenden, the 165-pouad linesman
who showed promise the first of the
w eek was called home yesterday and it
is not believed he will return in time
for the game. Pierson and Wolfson,
both of whom have been given tryouts
are not in the coach's preliminary line
up, and it is taken for granttd there
fore that they have failed to de
velop with the speed the coach hoped
for.
Captain Hamilton, who failed to
show up in his old form last week, will
start the game tomorrow but he is
still out of shape due to a pulled
muscle. Rider has a sprained foot and
may be unable to get into the game at
all.
The officials for tomorrow's game
arc: E. C. Quigley. referee C. E. Mc-
Bride, umpire, and Ed Cochrane,

who will preside at the meeting, said
today.
Other 'speakers at the rally, which
will begin at 7:15 o'clock, will be W.
H. Sapp or Columbia, a member of the
Legislature, and T. T. Crittenden, Jr..

GOVERNMENT
PLANS
TO REGULATE FOOD
Shortage of Sugar, Fats and
Meats Is Imminent, Says
F. B. Mumford.
ALL MUST SACRIFICE
Newly Appointed State Food
Administrator Back from
Washington.
"It ha been definitely determined
that there is a world-wide scarcity of
wheat, fat, sugar and meat, and it
will be one of the problems of the
National Food Administration to see
that these products are equally dis
tributed among the nations so that no
want will be felt in the United States,"
slid Dean F. B. Mumford, state food
administrator of Missouri, today,
after returning from Washington, D.
C, where he took the oath of office.
Dean Mumford, while at the capital,
conferred with the members of the
National Food Administration con
cerning his new duties, and says that
the President realizes the food supply
of a nation comes next in importance
to actual military supplies. The chief
activity of the food administration at
this time will be to undertake a nation-wide
campaign, in which etery
man, woman and child will be called
upon to aid in the conservation of
wheat and sugar. AH will be urged
to eat more corn bread and save the
wheat for use abroad.
"Just to show the opportunity for
conservation," said Dean Mumford.
"the annual consumption of sugar per
capita in the United States is 90
pounds, while the annual consumption
per capita in England, France and
Italy is only 21 pounds. And since
these nations have not felt any want
in this product, we could certainly
reduce our consumption by 30
per cent. If we do this, we will
have enough to supply both ourselves
In the near future, tne National
Food Administration will standardize
the bread loaves and suggest a uni
form price, except so far as condi
tions require a variation.

ONLY 13 DAYS LEFT
Strenuous Campaign Neces
sary to Complete Sales in
Allotted Time.
Iiy Associated Tress
WASHINGTON, Oct. 12. Only by
the most strenuous campaigning dur
ing the next thirteen working days the
Treasury Department announced to
day can the Liberty Loan reach the
subscription sale officials are hoping
for.
"Revelations by publication of of
ficial reports from all Federal Re
serve Banks indicate that only $325,
465,000 in subscriptions had been re
ported to them," reads the announce
ment which caused committee chair
men to send out hurried rallying
calls today to their army of salesmen.
"This amount is less than 7 per cent
of the total fie billion dollars in
subscriptions it is hoped by Secretary
McAdco will be taken up by October
2". Only by the most strenouous cam
paigning can the desired goal be
reached in the remaining thirteen
selling days. The most hopeful sign
in the situation is the virtually un
animous declaration of district chair
men that the official figures fall far
short of representing actual sales
made."

For Third Time E. M. Wat
son's Team Loses in Spell
ing Match.
John N. Belcher again won over his
old-time opponent, Ed Watson, in the
annual spelling match at Stephens
College last night. It was the third
contest between the two men and
their adherents. Mr. Belcher has been
victorious in each.
The contest was started four years
ago to raise money for Stephens Col
lege, and for the last two years the
proceeds have been devoted to the
Loan Scholarship Fund, given by the
Alumnae Association to help some
girl through college, preferably a
senior.
"Webster's Blue Back Speller" was
the authority and final "judge in all
cases last night. In the contest the
veteran spellers were assisted by the
college girls. Mis3cs Rowena Berry
and" Catherine Teague marshaled
their forces for Mr. Watson, while
Miss Grace Ewing and Miss Marion
Brown saw to it that Mr. Belcher was
supported by the undergraduates.
Dr. W. A. Norris pronounced the
words and rendered judgment. The
first word to bring about a downfall
was "grizzly." Mr. Watson went
down on "anodyne," and after sev
eral rounds Mrs. W. E. Maneville was
left alone to bear his banner. Ranged
against her were nine of Mr. Belcher's
champions, but Mrs. Maneville spelled
word for word with them until there
were only two left John N. Eelcher
himself and Ralph Gravely. Mr.
Belcher was the next to go. "Scru
toire" proved his Waterloo. The fight
then lay between two persons, but
French proved a little too much for
Mrs. Maneville and she misspelled
aid-de-camp."
Ralph Gravely, the winner, is a
junior in the School of Journalism at
the University. Some of the cham
pion spellers of the county took part
in the match last night, among them
being Mrs. G. J., Hays, Mr. and Mrs.
Noel Edwards, S. O. Pancoast and
Dr. J. B. Cole.
START A SEED CAMPAIGN
College of Agriculture Would Increase
Corn Production.
Following the increased wheat pro
duction campaign which has been
under way for several weeks the Uni
versity of Missouri College of Agri
culture has started a seed corn selec
tion campaign as a war emergency
measure. Corn is quite as important
as a food crop as wheat.
Ten men were placed in the field

series of dates in North Missouri
counties. Following the selection of
dates the men began holding meetings
in the counties they had visited. They
are working in co-operation with

Two of these sessions will be demon
strations at night in some place con
venient for the whole community.
These men will visit more than one
hundred counties.

Atlantic Fleet, and his staff have re
turned from England, where they par

the Allies. This announcement was
authorized today by the Navy Depart
ment. The statement authorized by Sec
retary Daniels follows: "Admiral H.
T. Mayo, United States Navy, and his
staff have returned from RninnH
! The purpose of the visit of Admiral
Mayo to England was to permit him
to confer with officials of the Allied
navy, to become acquainted with
every detail, with every situation as
it is at present and to know what had
been done before and to discuss plans
for the future. The British Admiralty
extended every courtesy and every
facility to permit the success of this
mission.
"Admiral Mayo will proceed imme
diately to Washington and will there
make a full report to the Secretary
of the Navy. Admiral Mayo visited
the English forces and our own forces
in British and French waters in or
der that he might familiarize himself
with the conditions In which the Al
lied forces are operating."
The fact that Admiral Mayo had
been sent to England for a conference
with Admiral Sims and the British
and French naval officials was dis
clospd to the press at the time of his
departure, with the request not to
mention the trip in published state
ments until an authorized statement
was issued. Except in one or two in
stances, the request was generally
carried out by the American newspa
pers. No details of Admiral Mayors con
ference have been made public, nor
are the nature of his instructions
known.
NEED OF SACRIFICE SHOWN

Fair today In behalf of the Liberty
Loan.
W, D. Vandiver of St. Louis made a
three-minute speech". In which he ask
ed the farmers of Boone County to
prove to the world that they were as
patriotic as they were prosperous.
Former Governor Richard Yates of
Illinois spoke from 2:30 till 3 o'clock.
He referred to the response of the
citizens to the bond issues in the
Civil war.
'Every head of a family made it a
point to own at least one $50 bond,"
he said. "I'm sure that you are as
patriotic as they."
The speaker, with the deepest at
tention from the audience, reviewed
America's efforts to keep out of the
war.
"The cause or liberty," he concluded,
from Bunker Hill to San Juan Hill
has always been pushed forward with
agony and sacrifice. It is either
bonds or bondage for us now."
COLLEGE CLUB BUYS BONDS

The members of the Christian Col
lege Club, composed of former stu
dents and alumnae, at a meeting
yesterday at the home ofl Sirs.
Hartley H. Banks, voted to buy two

orphan instead of buying expensive
Christmas presents this year. After
the business meeting a musical pro
gram was given by students of the
college' and Mrs. O. S. Selders and
Mrs. E. G. McAIester.
Students in Christian College are
also interested in the work. J. C.

Save Seeds From Your Own Garden.
The home gardener who finds it
difficult to get seed of his favorite
varieties of vegetables can save cer
tain kinds of seed to advantage in
his own garden, according to Prof. J.
C. Whitten of the University
College of Agriculture. Tomato seeds
can be saved at home. One should
select well developed ripe tomatoes,
preferably from the plant which has
borne the best crop during the season,
he says. The tomatoes should be
placed In the sun until they soften
and become watery inside. The seeds
then separate readily from the pulp.,
The tomato can be broken and wash
ed out in a bucket of water.
