L. Fairey, and left their hearts sorely stricken. This little jewel was spared just five years, but during that time she had endeared herself in the hearts of all who knew her, especie.lly in her Sunday School, where she was always ready to go. May the going away of this loved little one be as a bright and shining light to lead others to the beautiful beyond. Her body was laid to rest in the - family plot at Andrews Chapel on the morning of June 20th. Many lovely A flowers were laid on her little mound - by loving hands.

The war industries board announces tonight that it is in vestigating now to determine just how much hiome consumpt;on must be re dlucedl. ' Great Britain, France, Belgium and Italy are dependent on A merica for a ilarge percentage of their tobacco. It alIy to the. extent of 75 per cent, and all of' them to the extent that lessen r ing of the supply from Amewrica would rbe felt v'ery keenly. I The per capita consumpt ion of the ,LUnited States is seven and a half ', ouinds a year; Great Britain,' four r 'pounds; France, three and a half, andl v Italy, two poundls. tIn 1917 the United States prodluced . l,191i,000,000 pounds of leaf tobacco, tIwhich wvas sold at an increase of 50 ner cent, compared with 191.1 prices. . The estimate for 1918 in the United ,States is 850,00),000 pounds. But Great Britain will need 1 77,000,000 pounds; .France will have to hav 135,000,000 and Italy 75,000,000, a total of 387, 000,1000 pounds, most of which will have to be supplied by A merica.
