BOOSTING OF FOOD

BY GOVERNMENT
President Sanctions Move of
Department of Justice to
Expose Illegal Operations
in Wheat and Flour.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16-with the di-
rect sanction of President Wilson, the
machinery of the Federal Government to-
day was prepared to probe and punish
Illegal boosting of the wheat and -four
prices,
Notice has virtually been served that
serious punishment will follow discovery
of any Illegal methods in the recent sky
rocketing of wheat and -four figures. TO
prove ilegality, however, the department
admits is difficult task. The inter-
state trade must be involved. Further.
the very nature of price boosting COM
bne is so secret, and its tacit agree
ments so intangible that 1t is serious
problem to uncover court evidence.
Nevertheless, Attorney General Greg
ory was determined today to smoke out
any violators. His orders to his work.

course; Thou Christ of Galilee: Thou
Saviour of sinners; Thou blessed King of
kings, baptize u.s. each and every one

one. After it the delegations got into
action, They were bigger than on any

But the great sensation in the delega-

They tossed them all into the arms of two

Earle denied his identity, referring to
himself as that affinity chap" and de-

admitted he was Earle and posed for a

exhibitors and the visitors, have unani-
mously voted the 14th annual exhibit the
biggest and best ever held. Philadel-
phlans may point with pardoneble pride
to the 1915 show, and say without fear
OF contradiction that 1t ranked second to
none in this or any other country.
The very fact that space was limited
to go odd exhibits and half dozen or so
accessory booths meant but one thing
that the very best products in the world
would be selected for the exhibition
Any one who has walked down the aisles
at the show will tell you they have never
seen better variety.
The new feature of having well-trained
lecturers point out the things of beauty
about the cars has taken a popular hold.
and IL is certain the plan will be con-
tnued next year.
At 1O:30 o'clock tonight the task OF

HOW TO HEAL
SKIN-DISEASES

A Baltimore doctor suggests this
simple, but reliable and inexpensive.
home treatment for people suffering
with eczema, ringworm. rashes and
similar itching, burning skin troubles
At any reliable druggists get jar OF
resinol ointment and a cake OF resinol
soap. These will not cost bit more
than seventy-five cents. With the res
mol soap and warm water battle the at.
fected parts thoroughly. until they are
free from crusts and the skin is soft
ened. Dry very gently. spread on a
thin layer Of the resinol ointment. and
cover with a light bandage-if neces-
sary to protect the clothing. This
should be done twice n day. Usually
the distressing itching and burning
stop with the first treatment, and tha
skin soon becomes clear and healthy
again.
