FRANCE FIXES PRICES
OF ALL FOOD SUPPLIES
Government Notices Posted Over
Country-Storekeepers Are Com
planning Bitterly.

PARIS, November l3.-The govern
ment committee began today posting
throughout France the retail prices
for every classification of food, in or
der to prevent overcharging and spec
ulation. The public billboards in Paris
today bear an order signed by Prefect
of Police Laurent prescribing exactly
what shall be charged until the next
public notice.
Fifty-four varieties of beef are speci-
fed with prices ranging from the
equivalent of IA cents to A cents a
pound. the metric pound being one
tenth more than the American pound
The best butter is from So to SO cents
a pound; the best eggs are cents
apiece; potatoes are A to 6 cents a
pound
Every retail dealer must post in his
store list of prices so that it can
easily be read by the public, and these
prices must correspond, under penal
ties of the law, to the official prices
Many storekeepers complain bitterly
because of such regulations. Butchers
in Brest decided to keep their shops
closed yesterday as 4 protest. The
mayor has announced that If this is
persisted in he will open municipal
meat shops. At Dijon the association
of grocers has come to an amica Bile
agreement with the municipal authori-
ties concerning the retail prices for the
necessities of life.

Rise Due to Des MoInes.

Rise Due to Des MoInes.
That flood warnings have been is
sued is the statement of the Hannibal
Post in the following:
A bulletin, issued today by Fore
caster B. L. Waldron, predicts that
the Mississippi river at Hannibal and
Quincy would attain a stage Of Is
feet by next Wednesday. If such rise
materializes, this would be two feet
above the flood stage, which Is 10
feet, and which will be reached by
midnight tonight.
The stage of the river at IL o'clock
this morning was 1915 feet, rise of
IL feet in twenty-eight hours. This
is an average rise of a half inch an
hour the last two days. The river
will continue to rise until Wednesday.
The rise which Mr.. Waldron has
predicted is based on the reports OF
the great volum.s of water which Is
sweeping down the Des Moines river,
resulting from heavy rains through
out Iowa. Such a rise would mean
the flooding of the lowlands in this
section and the loss of thousands of
dollars of property. The farmers who
live in the bottom land are said to
De preparing 10 move TO llSU6T Us

Drainage District Protects.
Protection afforded by one of the
drainage districts is reported as fol-
lows in the Quincy Journal last night:
Thousands Of acres Of land and
crops equivalent to a small fortune
are protected from the high waters of
the Fabius, in the Mark drainage dis
trict, by the Mark levee This leyee
is firm and will undoubtedly hold no
matter how high the stage rises.
force of local men were rushed
to the district yesterday to aid In
pumping out the seep water and rain
water which had collected inside the
levee This was accomplished by
proper drainage and the pumps in
short time. The land protected, by the
levee never looked better and the
growing grain, aided by the rains, bid
fair to reap bumper crop.
Conditions in the Fabius district,
where the levee is incomplete, are get
ing bad. Beautiful fields of wheat
are covered with water which, in
some places, is two feet deep. The
levee itself is not damaged and prob
ablv will not be. All the land now
covered with water will be protected
when the new project under way is
completed. This will mean much to
the business men of Quincy.
