MICHIGAN IS THE

ARSENAL of VITAL FOODSSure, Michigan is only one state out of 48.

Washington says we're the arsenal of democracy,referring to Michigan-made airplanes and tanksand other munitions for our fighting Yanks andAllies.

But did you know that Michigan is an arsenalof vital foods ? Michigan is FIRST in cherries, fieldbeans, cantelopes, carrots and cucumbers; SECONDin celery, strawberries, and peppermint; THIRD inonions, tomatoes, sugar beets, grapes and buck-wheat; FOURTH in potatoes, beets and pears;FIFTH in apples, asparagus, and maple syrup . . .just to mention a few. In vital foodstuffs, Michi-

gan rates among the ten leading states in the U. S.A.

We're mighty proud of Michigan-grown vege-tables, dairy products, poultry, meats and sugarbeets.

When you buy MORE MICHIGAN foods,grown on Michigan farms, you assure yourself ofthe best in taste, in quality, in vitamin freshness.Moreover, you also help Uncle Sam by reducing theload on railroads and trucks. A short haul fromfarm to food store is a patriotic contribution thisyear. Remember, when you go to your food store,buy MORE MICHIGAN foods.

Why a Farmer ShouldBuy and Keep War Bonds

by J. I. FalconerRural Economics Dept.Ohio State University

'TpHE main business of the coun-JL try today is fighting the war;

all of us have an interest in hav-ing the war brought to a satisfac*tory conclusion as soon as possi-ble. At the present time one-halfthe productive energy of the coun-try is employed either in the mili-tary service or in producing thenecessary supplies. To pay forthese services and supplies re-quires a total amount of moneyequal to one-half the total incomeof the country.

As Americans we prize freedom.Too often, however, we forget thatfreedom implies responsibility.Freedom and responsibility areclosely associated. Eight now itis a < responsibility of every free-dom loving individual to buy WarBonds to the end that the war maybe ended as soon as possible.

War Bonds are a good invest-ment. They are also a safe in-vestment, which is another way of

saying that the chances of loss aresmall. It is a good place to putthe money which one wants to layaway for later use. This lateruse may be a source, of income inold age, it may be the making d£some improvement around thefarm or in the home, it may beproviding an education for thechildren or any one of a hundreddifferent uses.

Another reason why everyoneshould buy War Bonds is that it isone of the best ways of controllinginflation. Many of the goods andservices which we would like tobuy are not now available or areonly available in limited quanti-ties. Eather than spending themoney in ways that will divert re-sources from the war effort, itwould be much better to put themoney where it can be used forthe main purpose of the day,namely flghtjag thi/Wr?~'*ft*p':.,'""-' """"*' ' V. $. 7Vf««?ry Department" ' - • ' " ^ ' - " ' " ' * ' ^ * * *

How to

STOP FUSE TROUBLE

before it happens!

It's no fun sitting in the dark simply because ablown fuse has plunged your house into a black-out. Most fuse trouble can be^stopped before ithappens by observing a few simple precautions.

(1) Frayed lamp cords and extension cords are oftenresponsible for short circuits. Such frayed cords aredangerous. Have them repaired BEFORE they causetrouble. (Don't loop cords over a nail. Don't kinkcords or tie them in knots. Don't run cord through adoor Jamb or under rugs.) (2) Never put an electricappliance in water. Never poke at the element ofyour electric toaster (or any other appliance) witha fork or sharp tool, whether turned on or off.(3) Don't connect too many appliances and extralamps on one circuit. (4) Be careful not to overloadyour washer, or feed tooimany pieces of clothingthrough the wringer at one time. The same Is trueof your ironer. (5) Disconnect appliances by pullingon the plug—never Jerk out the cord. Do not letcords come in contact with water, grease or acids.(6) If a faulty lamp or appliance burns out a fuse/disconnect it at once—and don't use again until ithas been repaired.

Electricity is not rationed. But its production requirescoal and railroad transportation. Don't waste it!

In a "balance sheet" report, pre-pared at the request of War Mo-bilization Director James F. Barnes,Jones made this forecast of civiliansupplies for 1944.

"While supplies of some foods willbe less than would be needed withunrestricted demand, other foodswill be available in ample supply sothat every one can have enoughgood and nutritious food to satisfyhis needs."

Small Export Proportion.As to supplies beyond military

and civilian requirements

%oods available in the UnitedStates for export constitute only asmall proportion of the food require-•^•-••^•-^•,%,,-t «yfefc-«laf"ft""rKy-*T~~.r"«»»•i-g'vments of the United Nations and ofUbjlaled" STeaS. In considering tfie"rfsponsibility of toe Unileid Statesin helping to"meet food require-ments of the United Nations, itshould be kept in mind that theUnited States is not the food basketof the world."

Of the total exportable supplies offood available from all the UnitedNations, Jones said, this countryhas only 7 per cent of the wheat,grain and flour; one-fourth of thefats and edible oils; a third of themeat, fish and rice, and somewhatlarger proportions of canned fish,dried fruits and of beans and peas.

As the food demands of reoccu-pied territories Increase," the foodchief said, "food production willneed to be increased in the otherUnited Nations, and also in areas towhich they have access."

Livestock to Be Less.This country's foreign relief con-

tribution, Jones said, will have tobe limited mainly to dry beans andpeas, cereals, soya products and'certain minimum amounts of ani-

mal proteins and concentrates."Because feed reserves have been

used up, it is not possible to main-tain livestock at 1943 levels, he con-tinued. Hence, future productionprograms must place greater em-phasis upon direct food crops ratherthan on livestock.

The report said this year's pro-ductive efforts would be handi-capped by a heavy drain of trainedfarm workers and by a further de-terioration of farm transportationfacilities.

The report takes to task extremistprophets of the food situation, as-serting that because, under the ne-cessity of military security, civiliansare unable to get a complete pictureof the food program, they are fre-quently victims of "false views,either exaggerated ideas of a so-called food crisis or complacent as-sumptions that everything is goingwell."

Japanese Fliers in ChinaLack Eagerness to Fight

A 14TH AIR FORCE BASE INSOUTHEAST CHINA. — Americanfliers using P-38 Lightning fightershave found that the average Japa-nese fighter pilot is anything buteager.

The suicidal psychology of Japa-nese tactics reported elsewhere arenonexistent in this area. .

With the Lightnings especiaEy, theJapanese show little inclination totangle. A favorite tactic is to wheelaround over their own anti-aircraftpositions, hoping to draw the Amer-icans into position where they canbe brought under fire both from aloftand below?1

The Japanese pilot generally playsa tight' little game of aerial war-fare. He is a good airman, but hedoesn't like to fight unless the oddsare in his favor.

He is wary of making offensivemoves, preferring the defensiverole, leaving the offensive stroke tohis bombers'.

More Food SentI ~ By Lend-LeaseShip 10,500,000,GOOS*ounds

In 1843; Small Part ofCountry's Supplies.

WASHINGTON.-—Lend-lease ship-ments of food during the' first 11months of 1943 totaled 10,500,000,000pounds, an increase from a yearbefore, but the quantities shippedwere only a small proportion ofUnited States supplies, the War Foodadministration and the foreign eco-nomic administration reports.

During the period reviewed only1.2 pounds of every 100, pounds ofthe country's supply of beef andveal went to other United Nationsunder lend-lease. The United Statessent abroad 11.4 pounds of every 100pounds of lamb and mutton, and 15.3pounds of each 100 pounds of pork.

Lend-lease shipments, of all milkproducts, including dried milk, con-densed and evaporated milk, tookless than four quarts out of every100 quarts produced in Americandairies.

Almost 13 pounds in every 100pounds of American-produced cheesewent abroad in 1943. This comparedwith shipments of nearly 24 poundsin 1942.

Three and a half pounds of butterout of each 100 pounds produced inthis country went abroad during the11 months. Virtually all went tothe, Russian army, which had re-quested it for wounded soldiers con-valescing in hospitals. Shipments ofcanned vegetables amounted t« lessthan 1% cans out of every 100 cansof the United States supply.

Some of these shipments werecounterbalanced by supplies deliv-ered by other countries to UnitedStates forces overseas, it was point-ed out. Under reverse lend-lease,Australia and .New Zealand fur-nished our forces in that area withalmost as much beef and veal ashad been shipped under lend-lease toall countries from the United States,it was stated.

Beef and Veal.The total shipment of beef and

veal abroad was said to representthree tenths of an ounce a week foreach United States civilian. Porkshipments would have provided notquite five ounces a week for eachAmerican.

Food shipments in November ex-ceeded 1,000,000,000 pounds and weredirected as follows: British Com-monwealth, 60 per cent; Russia, 38per cent; North and West Africa,almost 2 per cent. Minor quantitieswere slated for export to Dutch pos-sessions and for Greek relief.

Besides foodstuffs, nearly 4,000,000pounds of seeds were delivered forlend-lease shipment in November,and 58,000 pounds of vitamins.

All food made available to Alliedrepresentatives comes under theWFA allocation procedure, underWhich the total food supplies of theUnited States are divided amongcivilians, armed forces, Allies andother groups.

Alaskan Troops Pass UpDinner; Puppy Missing

BETHEL, ALASKA.—The misad-ventures of a white malemute puppyrecently had this snowbound garri-son on the Kuskokwim river in aturmoil. The pup, one of a litter offive born under the mess hall, wan-dered away from his mother andhis brothers and sisters and be-came lost among the snow-weightedwillows and alders. :

The mess crew under Sergt. EarlGlaze, Center, Texas, forgot aboutdinner and began organizing searchparties, while the troops who ar-rived for dinner charitably decidedfinding the pup was more impor-tant than eating, and joined thesearch.

After two hours of beating theriver bottoms, they found the half-frozen pup and took him to themess hall to thaw out.

"I dunno what we'd do here with-out our dogs," said Sergeant Glaze."They are swell company and theyhave become just as military as usGI's. Why, believe it or not, thepups we've raised here the past cou-ple of years stand retreat with uslike veterans. When the. buglerstarts blowing that horn, the dogsform a circle around him and howjright in the groove."

The sergeant said he guessedthey'd have to discipline the whitepup for roving over the hill.

Success of 5th War Loan Will Meet Acclaim of Men in Fieldand Prove Nation Is Backing Our Armed Forces

: by Gen. Ike Eisenhower '."In moments of crisis involv-

ing the safety of our nativeland, the American peoplehave invariably rallied againstthe danger with courage, faithand resolution.

"For the past two years wehave been in one of these crises,perhaps the greatest hi our his-tory. On the battlefield and onthe home front men and wom-en are daily making great sac-rifices so the freedom in ourway of life may be preserved.

"There is now in progress the5th War Loan Drive to raisemoney so as to insure that thisconflict will be brought to thespeediest possible conclusionand with the least loss in lives.

The complete success in thedrive will meet the acclaim ofthe forces in the field and willbe renewed proof that allAmericans are one solid pha-lanx of determination in thisgreat war.

"All of us profoundly trustthat soon the world may be re-stored to a just peace. Untilwe can, with God's help, bringabout that happy realization ofour dreams, each of us mustseek incessantly for ways andmeans by which the value ofour services to our countrymay be enhanced. Right nowwe can do so by buying Bonds.Let's make this particular vic-tory a quick and decisive one."

The indispensable man in thiswar isn't the general. No, siree!And it isn't the admiral either,important as he may be.

Our nomination for the honor,and such it should be, goes to theman who, armed with a rifle, coldsteel bayonet and a pistol, meetsthe enemy face to face in actualcombat. It is kill or be killed—not a pleasant alternative tochoose. You either vanquish theother man, or you become a victimyourself of his rifle or bayonet orperhaps an enemy shell or grenadeon which your name has beenwritten.

* * *Eye-witness experience as an

observer at Camp McCoy, Wiscon-sin, where some 10,000 men arebeing trained today for infantryduty, overseas, prompted the aboveobservation. We offer it in all sin-cerity, and with full appreciationfor the sacrificial service performedby men in other branches of mili-tary service.

The impression is reinforced bypersonal experiences of the writerduring World War I both in thiscountry and in France. Yes, wehave met the dougliboy before, al-though our own branch of the ser-vice was the horse-drawn artillery,assigned to an infantry division.

Seeing is believing. Sure, you arepatriotic. You're doing your partto help win the war. But until youcan see for yourself just what thiswar means in terms of personalsacrifice by the young man in theinfantry, you are utterly unable tograsp its real significance.

What are you going to do to-morrow ?

Well, brace yourself for this ex-perience, all in a day's work forthe American doughboy.

First, call is at 5:40 a. m. Break-fast follows shortly afterwards.Then you spend a few hours prac-ticing* bayonet drill in which youram cold steel into a stuffed dum-my or parry the thrusts of an as-sociate as he practices on you, amake-believe foe. It means plentyof hard, hard physical exertion.

You undergo judo training thatis designed to help you out-fight atricky Jap. Wielding a long ma-chette knife is just one part of it.It's tough and hard. Kill or bekilled. Japs don't take prisoners,arid neither do we.

Or perhaps you practice hurlinghand grenades at distances of 30to 128 feet into enemy fox holes.

Your duties will depend, ofcourse, upon the task the armyselects for you. You may be at-tached to an automatic rifle team,of a 60 to 81 millimeter mortarsquad. You may be assigned to alight or heavy machine gun squad,or even an anti-tank gun team orthe 105 millimeter howitzer can-non which is used by the infantry,strangely enough in combat fight-ing.

* * *

Firing of many infantry weap-ons must be done on ranges wherethere is plenty of room for prac-tice shooting.

That involves a nice, long hikethere and back.

And the pack on your back—brother, you haven't seen any-thing! You must carry a rifle,bayonet, pistol, gas mask, fieldglasses, raincoat, first aid kit, en-trenching tool to dig your own foxhole, a shelter half with poles andpins, blanket, canteen and cup,meat can, knife, fork and spoon,cartridge Belt, three grenades andgrenade launcher, anti-tank gren-ade, ammunition bag and sixrounds of mortar, plus your clothesand shoes.

Yes, all this, mister. And itweighs only 92 pounds!

For an afternoon's diversion,you may undergo the following.

It's required of every man inthe infantry—private or officer—before he is permitted to enteractual combat dangers.

It is called infiltration training,and mister, is it mean! You mustcrawl over a simulated no-man'sland, pocked with shell holes filledwith mud and crisscrossed bybarbed wire.

Live machine gun bullets whistleover your head. In fact, observerscan view each bullet's path, as it ismarked by trails of red fire. Thistracer shows you exactly where thebullet travels.

You crawl on your belly, headdown, inching your way towardthe enemy trench. Inside a watchtower overlooking this no-man'sland is an officer. He has a mapon which are located land mines. Hepresses a button and off goes adynamite blast, shooting mud anddirt and smoke high into the air,with the sound and force of anartillery shell.

The day's field work over, youmarch back to camp.

Your feet are tired. You areweary all over. It's no strawberryfestival.

And then perhaps for an eve-ning's climax you will have anevent known as a divisional re-view. In the case of the CampMcCoy party, various infantryunits started to assemble at 4:30p. m. to march to the reviewingfield although the review itself wasnot to begin until 7 o'clock—twoand a half,,hours later.

At 5:30 p. m., while the guestswere enjoying a chicken dinner, athunderstorm roared out of thewest. The sky was purple black.It rained in sheets. At 6:30 p. m.,it was time -for us to leave in jeepsand trucks for the parade ground,and it was still pouring cats anddogs.

* * *

This divisional review was aclassic. Major General William R.Schmidt, the "old man" of the 76thDivision, and his aides includingBrig. General H. C. Evans, (artil-lery), stood in a blinding, torren-tial rain. The band marched andplayed bravely, and doughboys inbattalions of about 500 men ineach sloshed by the divisionalstaff and the visitors' reviewingstand. Everyone was wet asdrowned rats. You don't call off awar when it rains, and you don'tpostpone a divisional review if theweather is bad.

Wood UsesEdible sugar can be derived from

wood, and has been produced on acommercial scale in Europe. Barkfibers have been mixed with wooland felted or woven into fabrics.Much rayon is manufactured fromwood cellulose. And, of course, hous-ing has been one of the oldest andgreatest uses of wood.

Walk RightYou may walk enough already,

but do you walk properly? Hereare a few hints: Swing arms vigor-ously—point to'es straight ahead—lengthen stride—get more push withyour back leg while reaching for-ward with opposite arm—see howmuch you can speed your rhythm—run a short distance, stopping be-fore you get breathless—hop andskip—walk a little farther and morevigorously each day—then count thebenefits in pep, appetite,, agility andstamina. It's fun to be fit.

Wet ClothOne way to avoid waste while

washing the face or taking a bathor doing any other type of washupwith a wash cloth is to wet the clothbefore rubbing the soap on it. Thisis much more economical than rub-bing moistened soap on a dry cloth.A good lather can be made by oneor two rubs of the soap across themoistened cloth.

Tec. 5 Leslie Steward writesfrom England under date of May22 as follows:

"Dear Chronicle Eeaders:"I just thought you folks might

like to hear from a fellow who isnow in overseas service in Englandand who is from Cass City. Firstof all, I want to emphasize the factthat I enjoy the home paper whichmother sends me now and then.News of folks I know always in-terests me very much.

"Perhaps you would all like toknow what England is like, exact-ly, but I don't have space here togo into detail. I will say, however,that it is all backward here to thatin the States, and that I am look-ing forward to the day when I cansee home again. As far as customsare concerned, everything seemsas though it would be at least 10years old if taken to the States.Since us Yanks have moved inhowever, their customs seem tohave changed considerably. I dobelieve that England will be agreatly changed country when thiswar is over and we go back home.

"The food is good that we gethere. We have chicken every Sun-day and generally have steak orpork chops other days.

"I'll close now so as not to takeup too much space in the paper."

Warrant Officer Eonald Eeagh,:erving in the Navy, recently re-

turned to the States from a trip toAfrica. He leaves in about a weekfor another destination.

The following paragraphs aretaken from a letter written recent-ly by Sgt. Paul Anthes to theChronicle:

"Well, I have been travelingagain, seeing some country. I havebeen transferred from Fannin,Texas, to Fort Meade, Maryland.We had a swell trip, tiresome anddirty, but okeh. There was somepretty country, grain was beingcut, corn is nice and beans aredrilled.

"We had two hours in Districtof Columbia. We expect to visit itagain Wednesday as we are only20 miles from there. We are 18miles from Baltimore and 200miles from New York where mybuddy and I spent the past weekend. I guess the whole camp hadthe same idea as there were 2,500fellows there waiting for thattrain and all got on. We wentthrough Baltimore, Philadelphia,New Jersey and into New York. Itwas a four-hour ride. We visitedthe Empire State building. NewYork City looks rather small at102 stories up but rather beauti-ful. We also saw Broadway,Times Square, Eadio City, E. C. A.building, Eockefeller Center, Cen-tral Park, Cathedral of St. JohnDevine and Grand Central Station.It was all very interesting.

"We are not to stay here longas we're going to be sent across.

"I get the paper and find thehome news interesting. I am welland working every day.

"I think of you all often andwish I could visit Cass City soonbut we have a big job to do firstand we are doing it."

The paragraphs below are takenfrom a letter written by Sgt. Eom-ney Horner, who is stationed inEngland, and addressed to hismother, Mrs. Eobert Horner, ofDeford:

"We haven't gotten any mailhere yet, so this will be, more orless, another blind letter. I haven'tgotten around the country muchyet, so I won't be able to commenton the country much. I must say,Dad, that the childhood home ofyour mother and my grandmother,is a beautifll country. I can safelysay that there is no part of theStates that surpasses the beautyof the countryside in this part ofEngland. Don't get me wrong—I haven't forsaken home for Eng-land this quickly! I have just beengreatly impressed. Another pointyou'd like is the profusion of flow-ers of many varieties which seemto be blooming almost everywhere.Just what part of England didGrandma come from? One neverknows, perhaps when I am ableto travel around more I may beable to visit the childhood home ofmy ancestors.

"How's everything going thereat home? I suppose you are allbusy. It's a good thing you don'thave days for farming such asthey have here at this season. Itdoesn't get dark until midnight—no kidding—and is already break-ing day at 3:00 a. m. It still seemsitrange to be able to read without

the aid of a light at 11:30 everynight.

"We got paid in British currencyso I'm having fun learning to deal jin pounds, shillings, etc. The sys-tem isn't a bit hard to learn,though."
