number Of others having a national
distribution for their goods, will ba
represented by comprehensive exhib.
Its at the National Farm and Live

At the initial show. in 1916, large

year another big structure has been
erected.

SUGAR RAISED IN PRICE
AND AMOUNT IS LIMITED
New York Sales Are Restricted
to Five Pounds at 10
Cents

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-The first war
ration since the United States went
into the war went into effect here to-
day, when retail stores throughout the
city restricted the sale of sugar to
from two to five pounds to each GUS
toner at 10 and IL cents a pound, the
lower price prevailing only in those
stores where patriotism ranks above
avarice. The present famine condition
in the sugar trade is not expected to
be relieved before January 1, when
the first of the new crop arrives.
Details of the plan to conserve the
meager supply and keep the price at IL
cents maximum were worked out yes
terday at a meeting of refiners, whole
sale and retail dealers.
Under the rules adopted, housewives
will be able to buy from their grocers
once every ten days or two weeks bags
containing not more than two, three
and a half or five pounds, according to
the size of their families. Large con-
sumers will buy direct from the whole
salers. Out of $4,000 retail grocers in
the city more than half were repre-
scented and agreed to the program.

THAT is s15.200,00o worth of food

Judge PACK. IT does not include the
cost of feeding the several million sea

URIC ACID
An Enemy In Ambush
(BY DIR. NJ. G. LUCASD

1t was not until the discovery by Sir
Arthur Garrod, in lS4S, that the blood
Of equity patients contained uric acid
In an excessively large amount, that
much attention was paid TO this sub
ject. Later scientific men learned that
in govt (also true in rheumatism,) the
kidneys do not work properly to throw
off the uric acid poison; consequently
uric acid crystals are deposited in and
about the joints. where an Inflammation
is set up in the nearby tissues When
for any reason the circulation is slug
gsh, as in the joints of the toes, crys-
tails formed from uric acid are de-
posted there, and one suffers from
govt; or. when deposited in the tissues
one suffers from muscular rheumatism,
or articular rheumatism. My only med
icine 20 counteract the uric acid and
to throw II out of the system is tab
let's Of Anuric double strength, three
times q day.
The pain in the back. lumbago, pain
in the neck, creaky joints, stiffness in
muscles. have all been proven to be
caused by uric acid poison in the blood
and tissues. The Kidneys soon become
diseased, then there often follows dis
ease in the muscles Of the heart.
Kidney disease carries away a large
percentage of our people. What is to
De done? What can the ordinary person
do TO properly balance bodily health?
The answer is easy. Eat less meat. eat
coarse, plain food, with plenty of vege-
tables, drink plenty of water between
meals. and take an uric acid solvent
before meals for awhile such as Anuric
double strength, obtained at almost
any drug store. II was first discovered
by Dr. Pierce, Of the Surgical Institute
in Buffalo, n. Y. Most every one trou-
bled with uric acid finds that Anuric
dissolves the uric acid as hot water
will dissolve sugar.

KAISER To Be MADE
A HEAVY SUBSCRIBER
To THE LIBERTY LOAN
Hundreds of Millions of Dollars
in German Cash and Billion

Seized in United States

WASHINGTON, oct. 23.--The kaiser
Will be a forced subscriber to some flu
ture Liberty loan.
Seizure of hundreds o. millions IN
German-owned cash and an estimated
billion Of war material begins this week
with the assumption of office by A.
Mitchell Palmer custodian or alien prop
erty.
His duties call for taking over all
German property. whether owned by the
German government or by private citi-
zens.. The cash he seizes he will invest
in The Liberty loan or other good bonds
and the war material will be given to
United states troops to shoot back at
the kaiser.
Mr. Palmer opened offices and filed his
$3.50, 900 bond today. This is the largest
bond of any officer Of the government
except the secretary of the treasury.
which it equals. Preliminary work and
conferences will engage him until the
end of the week. He operates under
the trading with the enemy act.

in United States bonds-how dc you
think the kaiser will like subscribing to
our Liberty loans?
after the war, the United States will
pay for all German private property it
takes. German government property, OF
course, is the spoils Of war. But most
of it's stores the German government
owned through business house agents"
GERMANS READY TO PAY.
Mr.. Palmer found waiting for him
many letters from German business
firms offering TO turn over large sums
Of money at once. Some of this may even
arrive in time for subscription in the
present Liberty loan.
Cotton, shells. steel, brass, copper,
nickel and explosive chemicals, worth
in the aggregate more than billion,
besides hundreds of millions of German
cash or equivalents will come under Mr.
Palmer's control. The war materials
will relieve shortages felt by the coun-
tries warning against the kaiser.
Secret service men who have been at
work some time report that before this
country and Germany were at war pri-
vate firms representing the kaiser
bought vast stores of supplies. They
were unable to get much of this to

PETROGRAD REPORTS
ON GREAT SEA FIGHT
Six German DeStroyerS Sunk
by Russians, Ten Other
Ships Disabled

PETROGRAD, Monday. Oc.. 22.-Two
German dreadnaughts, one cruiser
twelve torpedo boats and one transport
were put out of action by the Russians
in the fighting around the islands in the
Gulf of Riga last week. but their ulti-
mate fate is unknown, says an official
statement issued last night by the Rus
sian admiralty. 1t has been established
that at least six German torpedo boats
were sunk in the fighting. The Rus
slams lost the battleship Slava and q
large torpedo boat.
The admiralty staff in it's review OF
the fighting says that the Russian units
fought excellently against the supe
riority of the Germans. The statement
reads:
During October 81 important en-
envy naval forces, together with
transports, were sighted by our
outposts in the Gulf of Riga. In
Moon Sound the enemy seems to be
clearing the water of distractions
which We laid down. There was no
naval action during the day, but
enemy submarines were discovered
in the Gulf OF Finland.
AS the naval operations in the
Baltic isles have now ended, ii is
possible to review them. The task
Of our fleet in this region was, with
the organized position of Moon
Sound as a base. to prevent enemy
attempts to seize the Gulf Of Riga
and Moon Sound. So long as the
German feet only employed in such
an operation elements OF minor
Importance as in 1915. namely, two
dreadnaug hts, our naval forces
could cope with them.
In 1915, although our position in
Moon Sound was organized incom-
pletely. we repulsed successfully all
attacks. and the enemy during
three days possession Of the Gulf
of Riga, suffered losses so grave
that he was obliged to depart. A
similar attempt in 1916 with unim-
portant forces failed completely.
In the recent operations the en-
envy employed the major part OF
his fleet, and his overwhelming
superiority enabled him to carry
out debarkatiOn rapidly and sue
cessfully. Our fleet only was able
to do it's best to hinder these ef-
forts and to infiict maximum losses.
With this object. We delivered a
