Arrangements have been made whereby
the packages to the eXpeditonary forces

SEARCHING. FOOD
STORED AND ON CARS
United States Agents Threaten
Prosecution for All Potato
Hoarders

United States Secret Service agents In
this city are investigating reports that
many carloads of potatoes and other food
stuffs are being held In storage and freight
cars by greedy merchants who are awaiting
rise in prices The agents are acting on
direct orders from Washington.
Not only will the investigation be thor
ough, II was said, but prosecutions Will be
started against the gougers IL found guilty
of the procedure as reported
More than 220 cars of potatoes were
found on sidings, Federal investigators
said This number has been reduced owing
to the Government threats to compel owners
to unload
Every Government agency. state and Fed
eral. under whose jurisdiction the case
comes now is engaged in an inquiry TO
determine where the responsibility belongs,
and prosecutions soon may follow. The
state Department Of Agriculture already
has appealed to Food Administrator Hoover
to compel the unloading of the cars in this
city, as well as the hundreds of other cars
held in Pittsburgh and other cities Of the
State. A time limit probably will be set
for unloading cars in the future,
Evidence that dealers In this city wan
tonly have allowed whole carloads of pota-
toes TO spoil rather than sell them at cur
rent prices was found yesterday when six
carloads of spoiled potatoes were refused
acceptance by the consignee.
NJ. S. Griffith. Secret Service operative
in this city. said:
"1f we find it is true that this perisbable
food Is being held for high prices. as APP
pears to be the case, we shall take action.
such wifu delay In the unloading of food
stuffs is boarding and Is in violation of the
food conservation laws"
David H. Simon, of the Terminal Market.
one of the largest potato buyers in the
city. said:
Potatoes are cheap. Why don't the
PEOPLE buy them? II there is no demand
for them, dealers cannot be expected to
hurry great quantities to market. The
railroads are responsible for many of the
potatoes spelling by delays in transit from
the west"

Good Roads 9 Cents Per Acre.

Vermillion county, Illinois, is expend-
ing this summer the proceeds of ST.
100000 twenty year bond issue in build
ing a system of concrete and brick
roads which will reach all parts Of the
country, says the American Farmer.
Accurate computations show that the
average cost of the roads will be about
8 cents per year per acre. Several other
counties in the state will vote on SINH
lar bond issues this fall, while in still
others campaigns Of education are be-
ing conducted. The growth in interest
in good roads is not confined to ILL
nois; the farmers In adjoining states
are just as keen for permanent high
ways. and some Of them, notably In
Indiana, have already secured them.
