Food Board Seeks to
Cut Bread Cost With
Fat-Reducing Formula

Washington, Nov. 8.-An attempt
to reduce bread prices will be the
next move of the food administra-
ton in assuming control of the prin-
cipal food commodities. At the re-
quest of Administrator Hoover, Pres
ident Wilson will issue, within few
days, an order directing that every
baker in the county be required TO
do business under Federal license.
Rules and regulations governing
the baking industry already have
been drawn up by the food adminls-
tration and will be put into operation
as sodA as the executive order is out.
They will provide a standardized
loaf of probably two sizes and stand
ardization of the bread content. A
bread formula has been selected and
bakers will be permitted to use no
other.
The new bread will contain re-
duced amount of fats, as both the
lard and milk content will be cut
down considerably. 1t probably will
be produced in twenty ounce and
ten-ounce loaves. No prices will be
fixed outright, but the regulations
Will prescribe that only reasonable
prices may be charged. Consum-
ers' committees have reported to the
administration that in most places
loaves of this size can be sold at 10
and cents, respectively.
Food administration officials are
giving serious consideration to the
situation created by the short wheat
crop, and it is believed that before

Maximalists Comprise
Most Radical Elements

The Maximalist. or Bolsheviki, ele-
ment comprises the most extreme
class of the Russian revolutionary
Socialists. 1t first sprang into promi-
nence in the early days of the revo-
luton under the leadership of Nikolai
Lenine, the radical agitator,l who
later was put under the ban of the
Provisional government because of
ultraradical preachments and his
suspected pro-German leanings. He
is known to have been in Petrograd
for some time past, however, but a
government order for his arrest failed
to result in his apprehension. Mean
while the Maximalists were under the
leadership of his chief lieutenant.
Leon Trotzky. whose home was in
the United States when the revolution
broke out but who sailed for Russia
shortly afterward. He was one of
the leaders in the 1905 revolution.
The strength of the MaXimalists
has lain in the support which they
obtained from the military. chiefly I'm
the Petrograd garrison, among which
they have been able to work with
little interference from their govern
ment. They had failed, however, to
impress their policies upon Russia as
a whole as has been shown by the
manner in which they were outvoted
in the all-Russian congress and the
minority party they played in the
organization of the preliminary pai-

'DRYS' IN OHIO
WIN CONTEST IS
LATEST REPORT
Error of 10000 Votes Gave
Vets Apparent Victory;
Official Count to Decide
BY Associated Press

Cincinnati. o., Nov. S.-Ohio to-
day woke up face to face with the
extreme probability that in less than
two years it would be a drinkless
and saloonless Commonwealth. This
condition forced itself upon the citi-
zens at midnight when the Prohibi-
ton votes. till then for many hours
in minority, took the lead in the
wide tabulation in such
strength as to make all but certain
the success of the Prohibition amend
ment which provides that the saloon
shall be barred after April /, 1919.
Since the closing of the polls Tues
day night until last midnight the
bulk of the votes shifted from dry
to wet and back to dry again as re-
ports from various sections were tab
ulated.
With the drys in early afternoon
congratulating themselves that they
were safely in the lead came word
that a mistake of ten thousand votes
had been discovered in the Hamil-
ton county (CincinnatD count which
gave the premier place to the vets.
Then the rural districts began to rolf
in, at first slowly cutting down the
wet lead and then more swiftly until
at midhight the drys distanced their
opponents.
Official Count Necessary
AS it is, an official count is more
than likely to intervene before the
final announcement is made of just
where Ohio stands on prohibition.
VETS and drys alike talked of the
need of an actual recount before any
thing like the whole state vote was
known. RumorS of serious mistakes
in several counties were current. but
none but the Hamilton county mis-
take received the sanction of election
officers. Governor Cox took notice
of the change in the Cincinnati re-
turns and instructed the Attorney
General to pay strict attention to de-
velopments before the county cleo
ton board.
Inasmuch as Tuscarawas and Ma
honing counties where the precincts
missing at midnight are located have
been credited with being dry terri
tory, the Prohibition champions as
serted their belief that their totals
would be greatly increased when
the official county returns were re-
corded at the state house.
While New York suffragists were
celebrating their victory, the Ohio
suffrage amendment. a limited Presl-
dental franchise for women, which
was hopelessly defeated in Ohio, was
banished from thought by the more
insistent interest in the fate of pro-
hibition.

FRENCH HONOR
FIRST GUN FIRED
BY u. S. UNIT
Children Place Wreath of
Flowers on Grim Barrel of
Gun For Germans

With the American Army in
France, Wednesday, Nov THE
first American artillery unit to es-
tablish contact with the Germans
came back to it's billits to-day. The
men were tired and muddy but still
an enthusiastic lot of soldiers as
ever came out of gun pits. Their
stay at the front was longer than
that of the infantry.
Their homecoming" was one
that will long be remembered in
this section of France. It was late
in the day when long lines of march,
ing soldiers and straining horses
were seen rounding a small noun
tain many miles away. From the
village toward which they were
marching the column could be seen
winding around the mountain to the
valley, up on a nearer hill and then
down again. The rain was beating
IN their faces and n village snuggled
in valley came into their view as
they crossed the crest of the hill
Below them stood a group in uni
form. Above the group floated the
american flag and a number of
children were gathered about. Snd-
denly the band-for the group of
uniforms was a band-started a
tune that brought a smile to the
face of even the most tired artillery
man in the column. 1t was "The
Campbells Are Coming" Some of
the artillery cheered and the bearer
OF the red battery pennants raised
themselves in their saddles and
waved the pennants.
The entire command was imme-
dlately drawn up in a hillside and a
gun, covered with camouflage paint
was drawn out in front. On the
gun shield an artilleryman had
written in chalk: "The first gun for
the Germans" The colonel in COM
mand spoke to one of the towns
people moment and addressing the
men told them the people of the vii
lage wished to do honor 10 the gun
and its crew and to the American
Army. The children gathered
around and placed a floral wreath
over the grim barrel and n bunch
of wild flowers inside The empty
case of the first shot fired. The regi-
mental band played the American

NuXated Iron three times per DAY
after meals for two weeks! Thenstest
your strength again and see how
much you have gained.
NOTE.-NuXated Iron which is pre-
scribed and recommended above by
physicians in such great variety of
cases is not patent medicine nor
secret remedy, but one which is well
known to druggists everywhere. -
like the older inorganic iron pI
ducts it is easily assimilated and does
not injure the teeth. make them
black nor upset the stomach; on the
contrary it is a most potent remedy
in nearly all forms of indigestion as
well as for nervous, rundown con-
ditions. The manufacturers have such
great confidence in NuXated Iron
that they offer to forfeit 10000 to
any charitable institution if they cam
not take any man or women under
60 who lacks iron and increases their
strength 100 per cent. or over in four
weeks time, provided they have no
serious organic trouble. They also
offer to refund your money if 1t does
not at least double your strength and
endurance in ten days time. 1t Is

Also opinion of DIR. James Louis
Beyea, who at nearly 80 years of
age, says he obtained astonishing
new energy and renewed vitality
with short course of this remark
able product.
Careful investigation by physicians
among druggists and patients has
revealed the fact that there are
thousands of people taking iron who
do not distinguish between ORGANIC
to think iron is iron on the same
theory that a potato would be a po-
tato whether cooked or raw, entirely
ignoring the fact that the cooking
process makes certain important oel-
iular changes in the potato that rem
ders it far more easy of assimilation
by the blood and tissues. No one
would hardly expect to derive the
same strength from eating raw po-
tatoes that he would from eating
cooked potatoes. yet according to the
opinions of physicians who nave
taking raw, unprepared, metallic iron
is a good deal like eating raw po-
tatoes.
Therefore, physicians advise those
who feel the need of strength and
blood bl6lder to go to their family
doctors and obtain Il prescription call
| ing for organic iron-NuXated Iron
and present this to their druggist so
that there may be no question about
obtaining the proper article. But il
they do not wish to go to the trouble
of getting a prescription for NuXated
Iron, then be sure to look =, the
label and see that the words NUX-
ATED IRON are printed thereon. Not
| NuX and Iron nor any other form of
| iron but NUXATED IRON.
In regard to the value of NuXated

was connected with the Department

says: The administration of NuXated

1t is generally felt by the business
community that the railroads have
not had sufficient revenue to keep
pace with the growth of the indus
tries of the country in providing
transportation facilities. The high
cost of fuel during the past two years
and also the advance in supplies lead
It's to believe that it hardly seems
possible that the Commission at this
critical period in the history of our
country when we are at war with
the, greatest and most efficient mill
tary despotism the world has ever
witnessed, should refuse any reason
