CANDY-MAKING SUP
PORTS THOUSANDS
OF EMPLOYEES

In answer to complaints that while
consumers can get only two pounds OF
sugar at their grocery store, the con
fectioner's windows next door are
filled with candies, Magnus Swenson
Food Administrator for Wisconsin
explained the attitude Of the Admins
tration toward the manufacture of
candy.
Consumers have no knowledge of
the amount Of sugar used by the con
dictionary industry" he said. The
Bureau of Chemistry and clever con
fectiOners are constantly experiment.
ing upon sugar saving formulas con
tanning corn and maple syrup, honey
and inVert sugar.
1--WE have cut their sugar allot-
ment to so per cent of the amount
they used during a corresponding
period last year Before this ruling
went into effect cOnfectiOneTs used
only per cent of the total sugar con-
sumption in the United States; now
they consume only per cent This
averages one-half teaspOOnful per per
son per day.
Would you have the Food Admin
istration close a big industry involv-
ing millions Of dollars and which pro-
vides the means of living to hundreds
of thousands of employees to save
One-half teaspoon of sugar a day for
you?"
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1918-10-03
WATCH YOURSELF!

Do you need a policeman to make
you keep within your 2-pound
sugar allotment?
Will Hoover be obliged to spend
100000 and hire 100000 men to
RATION sugar in the United
States?
Or will you back up Hoover's
belief in Democracy and Voluntari-
ly limit yourself to one-half pound
a week?
Hoover knows exactly how much
sugar we will have. He has figured
out the amount that must go to our
soldiers, to the Allies and to indi-
vidual Americans. If you take
more than your own portion, you
are stealing from someone else
who will have to go without
Would you be pointed out after
the war as "He took sugar from
the soldiers "
Count the spoonfuls, your own,
your family's or your neighbours
and SAVE SUGAR.

Tells a Secret
Manufacture Of Famous Medicine
Tells Ingredients, So Public Can
Appreciate Pure, Reliable Medi-
cine.

Many people fear to take medicine
to check and abort colds, cure coughs,
catarrh, etc. This fear is groundless
with all the products Of The Black
burn Products Co., Dayton, Ohio. Not
one contains opiates. narcotics or
harmful drugs. Mentho-Laxene, for
coughs, colds, catarrh and all distress
following a cold, is a compound of
Wild Cherry, Tolu, Cascara, Grinde-
liza. Menthoe Ammonium Chloride,
and alcohol sufficient to preserve and
keep in solution.
Every ingredient is in concentrated
form and the medicine is so strong
that only 10-drop doses are to be
taken in the raw" state. But the
ideal way is to make into syrup by
emptying 21a OF. bottle of Mentho-
Laxene into a pint bottle and thea fiil
the bottle with graduated sugar syr-
IN. made by dissolying pint OF sugar
In a half pint of boiling water. 1t is
said by thousands that this makes a

his patients for years.
