Our people should realize that every pound of wool made up into suits for them to wear is just so much less wool available for our soldiers next winter. Sec. Baker has lead us to , . believe that we will have at least 1,500,000 men in France by next winter with half a million, more in > training camps. It requires little foresight to see what is ahead of us unless our people are willing to do without unnecessary new wool cloth ing, for it has been difficult even this year to get wool for war work. We import from South America, anH A Hcttrolia nmoJhalf tha wool consumed by us, and no more ships than are necessary can be spar1 ed for trade, as ships are needed for transporting soldiers and supplies to the front. Every saving of wool, no matter how small, is important, so let us cooperate with our government and do our part towards conserving wool as well as food.?Contributed. Negro Farmers| Meet.
