TO
CONTESTANTS

Contest Editor, Kennebec Journal;
Dear Sir-Haying the impression
that you have stated in answer to
some contestant that all that was
needed to put in the Solution book
was the picture itself, 1 have trimmed
mine to the inner line, cutting off
both number and question; but as the
number of each picture is in the book
and III some contests it has not even
been necessary to paste in the picture
l thought of course it was the proper
way to do.
Is there any need to change my
method for the remaining pictures?
H.
The editor has endeavored to make
this as plain as possible. If each pic-
ture Is placed in its proper place 1t
will suffice; whether or not the num-
Der and question is left on or trimmed
off Is matter of personal choice and
taste. The editor cannot understand
why the pictures Just as they appear
(minus the coupon) will not fit, as he
has personally tried it himself.

EXPECTING LOWER
FOOD PRICES SOON

Portland, Me-, Sept. 23.-Lower pric-
es on a number of articles in the food
line are looked for by some of the
wholesalers. To a reporter of the Ex-
pre- Advertiser Wednesday, prom
inent wholesaler said: Il think that
there will be a general reaction on
many articles of food in a short time.
The great advances that We're made
were largely due to the consumers
themselves. though many do not be-
lieve it. At the outbreak of the Euro
pean war there was a slight stiffening
Of prices as there always is under
such condition.
"There was an immediate rush by
the consumers to lay in large sup
plies and thereby creating a false de-
mand. The producers were unable to
fill orders as fast as received and as
consequence products commenced to
advance. on most articles there have
been no general advances for some
time as the markets are becoming
ouieted. AS soon as the consumer finds
that there is no cause for excitement,
purchases will be made in quantities to
satisfy Immediate wants. There will
be no demand from those who already
have a considerable supply on hand
and it necessarily follows that reac-
ton must come. Notwithstanding the
fact that there will be a shortage of
raw sugars from Germany the market
declined so points today. The flour
situation will also improve within a
short time in favor of the consumer
unless unforeseen conditions arise"
