If you didn't buy hundred pounds
of sugar last week your chances are
not good for getting it now. Along
the line of the conservation orders
issued from Mr.. Hoover's Office the
local merchants have mutually agreed
that they will not sell more than 81 90
worth of sugarFat any one time to any
one person. According to word sent

of sugar again in this country by the
first of the coming year. In the mean

getting along without much sugar.
