URGES CONSUMERS
NOT TO HOARD UP
FOOD SUPPLIES
Wholesale Grocers Declare
Accumulation of Provisions
Forces Prices Higher
BUY AS YOU, EAT
Purchasing in Quantities Re-
sponsible For Hardships
to Many

With prices of groceries and other
provisions soaring higher daily, offi-
cials of the Evans-Burtnett Com
pany. Whitman Brothers, Whitman
Schwarz and other local grocers
urge consumers not to accumulate
food.
This, they say, has aided material
ly in forcing the prices of foodstuffs
up and has caused producers to
raise the price of all goods and also
to limit the supply.
If the consumer would use sound
judgment and not buy more provi-
sions than he heeds for immediate
use, they could aid greatly in reduc-
ing the hardships which they and
others have to endure" the say.
While it is rumored that there is
a shortage of cans for canning fruits
and vegetables, in this section, those
familiar with conditions said this
morning that there is no immediate
danger and that housewives here will
not suffer, as glass jars are almost
exclusively used here. These are
plentiful.
In an effort to avert shortage of
tin cans the National Preparedness
League and the Federal Government
have issued orders to big canning
concerns not to can peas, beans,
corn and other products, which can

fruits. Some producers of canned
goods have made complaint of the
shortage of cans. but it is the belief
of those familiar with conditions
that there will be plenty when the
season opens.

The Germans are still hurrying

only hope to check our advance by
using up great masses of troops.
whose breasts have taken the place
of parapets.
This policy must result in great
ly accelerating the process of ex-
haustion, and IL continued long the
situation will resolve itself into the
simple problem of which side can
longest maintain the deadly pace.
Prisoners declare that the German
army Is now being drained at a
rate which brings collapse within a

monarchy to seek a separate peace.
No confirmation of the reports is
available, from any reliable source
but there is more definite tidinss of
