Use ;! corn, oatmeal, rye or barley bread and nonwheat break !! fast foods. Order bread twerrty-four hours in advance so j | your baker will not bake beyond his needs. Cut the loaf on ]| the table and only as required. Use stale bread for cooking, I i toast, etc. Eat less cake and pastry. ! Our wheat harvest is far below normal. If each person weekly saves > one pound of wheat flour that means 150,000,000 more bushels of wheat ! for the Allies to mix In their bread. This will help them to save , DEMOCRACY. j SAVE THE MEAT.—Beef, mutton or pork not more than ; once daily. Use freely vegetables and fish. At the meat meal j serve smaller portions, and stews instead of steaks. Make ! made-dishes of all left-overs. Do this and there will be meat ; enough for every one at a reasonable price. i We are to-day killing- the dairy cows and female calves as the result | of high price. Therefore, eat less and eat no young meat. If we save , an ounce of meat each day per peirson, we will have additional supply > equal to 2,300,000 cattle. ; SAVE THE MlLK.—The'.children must have milk. Use ; every drop. Use buttermilk and sourmilk for'cooking and ! making coottage cheese. Use less cream. \ SAVE THE FATS.—We arc the world's greatest fat ; wasters. Fat is food. Butter is essential for the growth and ! health of children. Use butter on the table as usual but not j in cooking. Other fats are as good. Reduce use of fried ; foods. Save daily one-third ounce animal fats. Soap con ! tains fats. Do not waste it. Make your own* washing soap ! at home out of the saved fats. ! Use one-third ounce less per day of animal fat and 375,000 tons will i be saved yearly. I SAVE THE SUGAR.—Sugar is scarcer. We use to-day j I three times as much per person as our Allies. So there may j be enough for all at reasonable price, use less candy and ! sweet drinks. Do not stint sugar in putting up fruit and j jams.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH SIGNING VP TO H I k * / == , —* | The above picture shows one of the boys being sworn into the new truck company organized by Harry Souders. The headquarters were moved from the tent in front of the Courthouse to the plot at the Post Office building. Only thirteen vacancies yet exist in the company and it is expected to enlist them this afternoon from towns in the western part of the state. , Powell Row Reaches * to Local Attorneys L. Floyd Hess and W. Bingham Kay, two of the men who were of ficials in .charge at tax settlements under Ex-Auditor General A. W. Powell, have been told that they cannot do business with the Auditor General's Department for the pres ent. Mr. Hess has presented sev eral papers in relation to tax matters in behalf of clients and has -been informed that he cannot transact business. He was at the Capitol to day endeavoring to look after affairs and inclined to be somewhat indig nant at the situation in which he found himself as a result of the de mand of Auditor General Charles A. Snyder upon Mr. Powell for restora tion of certain papers, which Mr. Snyder contends are State property and which Mr. Powell is said to in sist are not. In the absence of Mr. Snyder no one would say anything to-day, but that the development of the case woujd be interesting was forecast in the gosip of the Capitol. One of the stories is that the Auditor Gen eral in the event that he can get no satisfaction from Mr. Powell may ask an opinion from Attorney Gen eral Brown on the ground that pa pers belonging to the State are in. volved. Should it turn out that the pa pers really desired have been de stroyed and that they cannot be re placed the matter may assume a very serious phase. Meanwhile no one has called for the valises at Union station which friends of Mr. Powell say contain a choice collec tion of newspapers. EXEMPTION SUBSTITUTES Ten substitutions on local con scription and exemption boards were announced.at the State regis, tration bureau to-day. They will become effective at once. Several resignations have not been acted upon owing to the reasons not be ing deemejJ sufficient. All are from distant points. COJfPLAIN OF FARE RAISE The Beechwood Civic Association, composed of residents of Beechwood Park, Delaware county ,to-day filed a complain with the Public Service Commission against a change in fare on the Philadelphia jind Western Railway from Beechwood to the Six ty-ninth Street Terminal. Until re cently they clai mthe fare was five cents, now It Is seven with the right to buy ten tickets for half a dollar. FINN COUNTRY FREE OF RUSSIA Continued From First Page refuse, however, to allow Finland to determine her relations with Russia, insisting she must wait until the meeting of the constituent assembly. Pren* Is Sharp The comment of the newspapers in Fetrograd is sharp. The Retch de clares it is Impossible for Russia to tolerate Finland's move. The Bir zlievlya hints at armed Interference, saying Russia, is now about to.make a last attempt toward a peaceful set tlement. According to the present program, Helsingfors will to-morrow put the bill passed Thursday into force "by simple declaration," meaning without Russia's sanction. This Is the first formal denial of Russia's suzerain rights. The law, which was engineered by the socialists, proclaims that Russia has lost all authority In Finland ex cept in the domains of diplomacy and in the army and navy, where, how ever, Russia's rights are undefined. All other prerogatives of the grand dulco of Finland with the provisional government claims passed automatic ally to It belong to Finland. Specif ically the Diet assumes the grand duke's right to put Into execution the law, convoke and prorogue the legis lature and appoint a supreme execu tive. The governor general is not men tioned It' the law and as no functions are left him -he is practically super seded. Telegrams from Helsingfors declare that after the promulgation of the law the Diet will appoint its own senate. \ Separate Division An inkling of the action of the Fin nish Diet was given on June 22. when the Social Democratic Congress of Finland adopted resolutions demand ing tho separating of Finland from Russia and the formation of an Inde pendent republic. Under the plan proposed Russia would not have the right to keep troops In Finnish ter ritory In time of peace or to possess any fortifications. Economla rela tions between Finland and Russia would be regulated as between for- IS 0 eign countries. The Finnish social democints addressed the social demo crats of all countnes, especially Rus sia, asking them to support tne esr tnbli.ihrnent of Finland's independence on tjie ground that the Russian gov ernment, which was characterized as bourgeois, was incapable of giving adequate guarsntees for the inviola |pmn s I Store Opens at 8.30 A.

The Governor has until July 2 Bto dls ! pose of bills, according to the reck | oning at his department. It is un derstood that he hopes to clear tip | most of the appropriation bills next week. He has about 160 bills of j general character in his hands. | The Governor has withdrawn his [ approval of the W. W.
