FEDERAL GRADES
TO Be M0O|F|E
Changes Will Be Made to Make
Standards More Workable
Not to Be Suspended

Washington, Sept. 27.-Suggestions
coming from the northwest that the
grain grading standards established
! by the grain standard act. which
takes the grading of grains from the
states and puts it under the federal
government, be suspended during the
war are turned down by the govern
ment.
Following the receipt of the sug-
gestiOn. the matter was taken up
oy c. J. Brand of the bureau of mar
kets with the food administration,
with the decision that instead of sus-
pending the enforcement Of the law
during the war it be the more rigidly
enforced on account of the war.
The following announcement car
ries the decision of the government:
"All purchases Of wheat over which
the food administration grain cor
poration has control will be made &C
cording to the grades Of the official
grain standards of the United States
from No. / to No. 3 and below No. 3
of wheat.
No Suspension Of Act.
THE enforcement of the grain
standard act will not be suspended
by the government, but on the con-
trary the food administra ton and
the department of agriculture will
cooperate in carrying out its pro-
visions so as to obtain the most
beneficial results to all concerned.
1t appears that confusion has arisen
on account of the unfamiliarity of
many persons in the grain trade with
the new standards and also on ac-
count of unwarranted practices that
have arisen recently, such as the
arbitrary assignment of lower nu-

HUNGRY TROOPS

Rurleighs County Chapter Of Red
Cross Assumes Important
New Duties
cUARDsMEN Or FIRST
TO HAVE LUNCHEONS

Beiated troop trains arriving at Bis
marck with hordes of hungry soldiers,
longing for overdue meals, will find
steaming hot luncheon awaiting
them at the Northern Pacific station.
THE canteen unit Of the Burleign
county Red Cross chapter will care
for this important DETAIL the eXecu-
tive committee advised northwestern
headquarters at Minneapolis today.
The unit will be organized at a
meeting of the executive committee
this afternoon. It's workers will be
selected from the ranks of Bismarck
patriotic women They will stand
ready on four hours notice, day or
night, to feed hungry troopers.
A doctor and nurse to care for any
of the boys who may fall sick on the
way will be attached to the unit.
1t is not the intent of the Red Cross
to feed soldier boys who are running
on regular schedules and being fed at
appropriate intervals-which for the
average boy in khaki is every two
hours-but to care for troops carried
on trains which through some un-
avoidaBle delay are unable to make
meal stations on time, and whose pas
sengers need something to tide them
over the gap.
1t is probable the unit will get its
hand in Saturday, by furnishing hot
lunches to some 700 guardsmen Of the
First from Fort Lincoln. Major Wright
announces that camp will be broken
Immediately after meal time, but en-
training is task which always takes
more time than anticipated, and it is
