NAME FA|R PR|gES
FOR FOOD PRODUCTS
Flour Ought to Sell For s1.57
Per Sack in This
State.
(By The Associated Press.)

WHEELING, w. Va. Dec. 12.-
The price Interpretation committee
Of the West Virginia food admins
tration met today and fixed q sched-
ule Of prices that are to be paid by
the dealer and the amount and no
more than quoted by the consumer
for foodstuff. The schedule OF prices
arranged includes flour corn meal.
rye flour, barley, lima beans, prunes
and sugar.
The weekly report of the inter.
probation committee for this state is
given. The committee asks that all
consumers who are asked to pay
more for the commodities named
communicate with the food admin
istration, giving the name Of the
dealer. Sugar is arriving, now and
the price will drop shortly. The
schedule follows:
The supply Of wheat flour IN the
Wheeling district is at present ample
TO meet all necessary demands. You
must not insist on any particular
brand. Do not lose sight Of the alb
solutc necessity of conserving wheat
flour and using substitutes.
Best spring wheat: Retailer pays
s1.44 to $1.57 for 1-2's sacks: Retailer
should sell $1.65 to $.170 for 1-S's
sacks.
Winter wheat flour Retailer pays
S1.25 for 1-S sacks; retailer should
sell at $1.40 to s1.45 for 1-S sacks.
Corn meal: Retailer pays cents to
1-2 cents per pound: Retailer should
sell at cents to 1-2 cents per
pound.
While corn meal is not as low in
price as in former years, neverthe.
less the. point Of prime Importance
is this-use more corn meal, use less
wheat, because your food admins
tr:tion says it Is imperative. Corn
meal will be lower in price as soon
as new crop corn is fit to grind.
Rye flour: Retailer pays $1.44 to
S1.57 for is sacks; retailer should
sell s1.70 to s1.20 for 1-2 sacks.
Barley: Retailer pays 6 IL cents
to s 1-2 cents per pound; retailer
should sell at cents to 10 cents per
pound.
Lima beans: Retailer pays II IL
to II LIZ cents per pound; consumer
pays 10 cents per pound.
We hesitate to fix price on
prune5 because each size commands
is own price, and, consequently, any
figures we might submit, would ad.
NIT OF too wide variation. But we
desire to inform the public that the
price Of this commodity is now rs
cents lower than its price of one
year ago.
Sugar: Retailer pays per cwt. {:
1878 to SOIL; consumer pays per
pound 10 cents to II cents. The gu
gar condition is Just the same as last
week. Prices will go lower. Don't
hoard sugar. There will be ample
shortly and you will buy for less.

TERRIBLY SWOLLEN
Suffering Described As Torture
Relieved BY Black Dr.ught.

Rossyille, Gains. Kate Lee Able, Of
this place, writes: envy husband is an
engineer, and once willie lifting, he in
iured himself witt, a piece Of heavy ma
chinery, across the abdomen. He was
so sore he could not bear to press on
himself at all, on chest or abdomen. He
weighed l65 lbs, and fell off until he
weighed ITO lbs, in two weeks.
He became constipated and 1t looked
like he would die. We had three different
doctors, yet with all their medicine, his
bowels failed to act. He would turn up
a ten-cent bottle Of castor oil, and drink
1.-two or three days in succession. He
did this yet without result. We became
desperate, he suffered so. He was swol-
len terribly. He told me his suffering
could only be described as torture.
Isent and bought Thedtord's Black
Draught. made him take a big dose,
and when it began TO acthe tainted, he
was in such misery, but he got relief and
began to mend at once. He got well,
and we both feel he owes his lie to
Thedtord's Black Draught."
Thedford's Black Draught will help you
to keep fit, ready for the days work.

with relation to water traIeporta-

This statement the report says,
has been Aiscoastrucd to mean that
a close corporal, relation between
coal mining companies and transpor

report continues:

producing and coal transporting com.
Danies are fully recognized by the
Commission. Directly as to anthra

NEW YORK. Dec. 12.-Another wave
of liquidation swept over the stock
market yesterday, causing losses of s
t. points in many issues. Selling
was most active in the afternoon, when
prices crumbled to the accompaniment,
CT disturbing rumors.
Trading during the early and inter
mediate periods was light. but alto.
gether at the expense OF values. Rails
were at first inclined to ignore the
prospects of government control, but
soon led reversal that gathered
greater momentum at the end.
Practically all the leading rails drop.
ped to lowest prices of the year, some
touched their minimams for a period
OF years and a few made absolutely
new minimums. Extreme recessions
ir this group ranged from to points.
