DEALERS IN FOODSTUFFS
MUST MAKE SURVEY
Within Next Ten Days Report Must
BE Filed With United States De-
partment of Agriculture.

All dealers in foodstuffs in Rich
mond, both retail and wholesale. are
now preparing to make complete
survey Of their stocks in compliance
with the Federal food control law. The
inventory must be made between Aug
ust 81 and September 10. and a report
made to the United States Department
Of Agriculture on the amount OF eigh-
teen principal foods, whether in stock
or In transit.
Since the Federal law requires that
all firms having commercial stocks of
food shall make returns of what they
have on hand or in transit on August
81. the Department or Agriculture.
charged with carrying out the provi-
sions OF the law. has designated the
field agent in marketing. with offices
in the old Davis Building. Thirteenth
and Franklin Ctreets. as the agent in
Virginia from which the necessary
blanks may be obtained Every CO.
operation in the matter is being given
by B. c. Moomaw, of the State Division
Of Markets.
Each blank has spaces for recording
the stocks of eighteen principal COM
modities. including the chief food ce-
reals. meats. lard. oils. fish. sugar and
condensed or evaporated milk. Eleva-
tors. mills. dealers. Gamers, bakers,
confectioners. manufacturers. jobbers.
packers, grocers, hotels. department
and general stores dealing in grocer
les. and other types of business to the
number OF about 100 are required to
report their stocks not later than Sep
TENDER 10. though an extension Of time
may be granted by the Secretary Of
Agriculture on special request II a
good reason can be shown.
This survey will probably bring to
light any of the storage houses, in
which. it has been charged. foodstufrs
have been boarded by spectators to
secure abnormal profits through the
rise of markets to exorbitant prices
The survey, in so far as 1t concerns
the supplies Of eighteen principal food
stuffs. is preliminary one. to be fol-
lowed by more complete investigation
after the crops are harvested. For the
complete schedule. the blanks sup
piled dealers call for returns on 1903
items.
Approximately $4,000 firms through
out the country have been mailed the
blanks Of the Agricultural Department.
! and returns are required under the
law with heavy penalty for noncom-
pliance. All signed blanks must be
sworn to by a notary public. This is
one OF the first and most important
steps In the food conservation move.
ment and one which is believed will
J result in great good for this country.

Der 2.-Writing to his sister, in this
city. Major Davis B. Wills. u. S. ma
rine corps. tells of the war reception
accorded American troops in France.
He says in part:
I'VE went into camp directly after
arrival for a couple Of weeks. but after
one week / was hustled out for a
fifty-two-hour train ride across France
to this point. where came in the ca
pacity of town major to arrange for
the billeting Of our troops. This kept
me strictly on the job until and after
the arrival Of our forces. and think
/ must have examined every stable and
hay loft in France.
THE people along the way we're most
enthusiastic, and all seemed amazed
that America should have gotten fight
ing forces over In such short space
Of time. The people cheered us at
every step. and little girls brought
bouquets Of flowers. though they had
no advance notice that we were pass
ing through. The country through
which we passed Is the most beautiful
far as the eye can see with that Won
derful green we see just after hard
rain.
I'VE hear the firing constantly and
are now getting accustomed to seeing
German planes high overhead, giving
us the once over.
Shortly after my arrival here. and
before the troops came. we went out
horseback riding one afternoon, and
ran into one Of the towns where the
arc quartered. There were
three American officers In our party. so
when the French saw us and turned
out, the guard and the band. we had
to receive the honors. We received
the "Star-Bangled Banner" saluted
the Marseillaise. received bouquets. in
spected the troops and their billets.
and beat 1t as soon as we could get
away, only to run into more Of the
same at the next town, where they had
phoned that we were coming.
"a couple Of days ago I received q
very sweet letter from little girl I
met soon after my arrival. in which
she said the Germans had killed her
father. and were making life terrible
for her grandparents In but
that the Americans had now come to
avenge them, and would end the war
! quickly"
