Garfield Limits Coal
For Use of Electric Signs

Washington, Nov. e.-Thv govr
ernment's first move towards elirni-
mating nonessential industries to
save coal was made tonight in an
order by the ' fuel administrator
limiting the use of fuel for electric
display advertising to the hours
between 7:45 and II o'clock p. m.
A score of other industries will be
affected by similar orders that will
be issued as soon as, complete
classification is made.
Faced by the realization that coal
production cannot keep pace with
the present rate of consumption the
fuel administration is ready if nec-
essary to guarantee supplies only
for domestic users and industries
either necessary in the conduct Of
the war or vital to the public.

a rope to a-sausage grinder; and from
an apple bag to 1oaflof bread.
He exhibited the bread to show the
good bread which can be made by the
use of a large percentage of potato
starch. He exhibited the sausage
grinder to illustrate how the starch
can be extracted from small potatoes
which do not sell well on the market.
"Peop1e talk a lot about conserva-
