Impressive Funeral.

The body Of Major John Purroy
Mitchell, former mayor of New York,
was laid to rest last Thursday in
Woodiawn cemetery in New York in
the presence of 5000 mourning citi-
zens after remarkable and impress
i've funeral.
The obsequies were not only char
acterized by the presence Of men
prominent in world aairs, including
former President Roosevelt, Joseph
P. Tumulty, representing President
Wilson; ENJOYS from the war and navy
departments and official representa-
tives Of England, France, Italy, Japan,
Cuba and Persia, but eighteen Amer
lean aviators in battle formation as a
I token of respect to their dead e M
rade in arms hovered over the funer-
al cortege as it moved slowly up Fifth
avenue to St. Patrick's cathedral and
thence to the cemetery.
Thousands of American beauty ~os-
es, from the gardens Of Mrs. Robert
Bacon, wife of the former American
Ambassador to France, were dropped
by the airmen into the streets, upon
the house tops and at the grave as
the aviator's body was lowered into
its final resting place. Three thou
sand lilies sent by the former mayor 5
family carpeted the spot as mourning

WHEAT MUST
Be MARKETED
Food Administration Calls
Upon Farmers to Market All
Except Supply Necessary for
Own Use.

Raleigh.-Stats Food Administrator
Henry A. Page has been instructed by
the Food Administration at Washing
ton, In order to assure the continuous
shipment of wheat to our armies
abroad and the armies Of our Allies,
to appeal to the farmers of the State
TO market the residue of their wheat
not later than May 1. No general or
der reQuisitionining wheat has been
sent out by the Food Administration
up to this time and probably will not
be sent out before the date mentioned.
In some states the attention of
State Food Administrators has been
called to reports from loyal farmers
that a number Of pro-German farmers
have determined to withhold their
wheat from the market in order to
handicap TO as great an extent as pos
sible the Governme ent and its Allies in
the war against Germany. There
have even been q few such instances
-s1orted in North Carolina. Such
casos will be promptly investigated
ana narst>ns il this class will be di-
cs1k1I Pei SUI
rected to ma N0' 'Ii7l. "n7"' AllHl7ul'
ately upon penalty .. u" 1i-5 II ool--
fsCatad by the Government.
Administrator PAGE is confident 0f
an immediate and patriotic response
upon the part OF wheat growing farm
er5 in North Carolina who still have
wheat on hand. Mr.. Page states that
there is no pecuniary reason why
wheat growers should not market all
Of their wheat beyond their own re
Qulrements until the next harvest. 1t
is possible that a Aighec price will be
fixed by Congress for the coming crop
but it would not apply to wheat from
the last harvest. Further there is
really some danger that the next crop
will not sell at as high price in
North Carolina as wheat is selling at
present because the rate of 1920 per
bushel fixed by President Wilson by
proclamation may be made to apply
to all sections regardless of freight
diferentials, etc.
There is a further chance that the
stricted as to the>price they may pay
for wheat, may be restricted to the
basing price minus freight from the
nearest basing point which would be
from $21o to $2.15 per bushel from
most points in North Carolina.

RESTAURANTS AND

While Individual Consumers Are Oro-
ed to Use Only VA Pounds Of Flour

Be Forced to Rigid Observance Of

Raleigh.-Hotel and restaurant men
h North Carolina Nno do not rig1diy
observe the food conservation program
Of the Food Administration hereafter
may anticipate with confidence con-
terence with State Foed Administrator
Henry A. Page or members Of his staff.
Following the receipt Of urgent in
sts,ctions from Washington Mr.. Page
has announced that rigid adherence to
conservation rules Will be enforced in
all hotels and restaurants and public
sating places in North CaEoitna after
this date. II violations are reported
hearings will be held and where the
circumstances warrant It punitive
measures will be taken.
Already explanations have been de-
nanded from a numbers Of hotels in
the state for their non-cOnformance or
luke-warm observance of the conserva-
tien program of the Food Administra-
tion and the owners of four cafes in
Raleigh were given hearing to show
cause why they should not be punish
ed for their failure to observe wheat
less days and wheatless meals.
Every household in the country is
requested to confine its consumption
to 1 IL pounds per person per week. A
large number Of households are follow
ing the examples of more than 500 Of
the largest hotels of the country at
Washington recently when they ban
fshed wheat products from their menu
from this date until the next harvest
The Food Administration has received
a number of reports of business men,
professional men, farmers and others
having foresworn the use Of wheat
-four until the next harvest

NOBODY WANTS
THESE TRIPLETS
They Prove So UnwelcOme That De-
termined Effort is Being Made to
Get Rid of Them.
State Board of Health Bulletin.

State Board of Health Bulletin.
Many communities in the State are
finding themselves the possessors OF
triplets which are proving most un-
welcome in these days of war and
the high cost of living. Instead of
being greeted with joy and felicita-
tions, these triplets are receiving
treatment worse than that accorded
the proverbial red-headed step-child.
These triplets are not the sort that
will increase the manpower Of the
sources at this crisis of history. On
the contrary they decrease it by max
ing people unfit for service either by
Hines sor death. The triplets are
hookworm, bad teeth and typhoid
fever.
- The people of North Carolina un-
necessarily pay heavy toll each year
in illness and death to these triplets.
Bad teeth can be remedied. Hook
worm can easily be eradicated. Ty-
phoid fever as easily can be prevented.
Against these triple drive is this
summer being made in many Of the
counties of the State. Dental clinics
are being held for the free treatment
of the school children. At the same
time examinations and treatments for
hookworm are being given, and ty-
phoid vaccine administered ID all who
will take it.
"a part of patriotism at home is
keeping fit to serve" says DR.. j. S
Kitchener, county health officer OF
| Lenoir county, in announcing the be-
ginning of this work in that COUNT
| adding, "every one who is treated
| is helping lick the Germans"
