be able to order we'll and to use their
purchasing power to affect and control

THE committee on substituted FOODS
has now in course OF preparation for dis
trbution Instructions In pamphlet form for
such articles OF food as can conveniently
take the place OF those commodities which.
because OF the great demand, will neces-
sarily rise in price In the course OF the
next few days the committee Will estab-
lish special bureau as an agency to
inform housekeepers OF what Is being pro-
duced on the present market which can
be bought at cheap prices and which
will tend to keep them Informed as to
commodities OF a useful and practical
nature which have increased in supply
THE committee believes that the Ameri-
can people can do without many foreign
food commodities and that American

Some disappointment was felt by
many who had expected to have oppor-
tunity Of voting on the question of
county division. However, petitions for
division were circulated at most of the
polling places. The explanation is given
that the question could not be gotten on
the official ballot, necessitating separate
ballots, polling places and judges should
it have been put to vote; whereas the
petitions would have been necessary
anyway for presentation to the legis-
lature, and are handled with less ex-
pense, while giving the sentiment Of the
people on division just as well.
