SUGAR SCARCE And
GETTING SCARCER
Conservation Plans For Retail Crocers.

Representing the National Retail
Grocers Association, Mr.. A. Bogue,
called a meeting of all the retail
grocers of the county and city last
/ Thursday night which resulted in the
organization of a local association,
with Theo. Currey as president and
: L. G. Davidson secretary. Mr.. Bogue
gave a splendid talk and all who
heard him were greatly interested,
for he gave them very interesting in
formation, especially regarding the
sugar situation. He said that the
/ shortage of this staple was growing
more acute every day and predicted
that in few months that we would
be unable to get any sugar at all.
He warned against boarding and said
in some places where housewives
were buying ostensibly for canning
and preserving purposes, it has been
discovered that they were using it for
domestic purposes, other than what
they had agreed to use it for. This
he said would result in a government
inspector coming around and asked to
be shown the canned goods and pre-
serves by those whose cards showed
they had obtained canning sugar al
lotments.
The retail grocery merchants of
the city are much interested in the
instructions which the War Indus
tries Board are giving them toward
the conservation of their business
along several lines and in view of
this fact they have adopted strong
resolutions to close their business
houses every evening at seven o'clock !
except on Saturdays and to cease
the delivery of all goods after Sep |
TENDER LIST. The following agree
ment has been signed up and is
published below. Another wise move
they have adopted. is the strictly 30
days basis and they will expect every
account to be closed the first of every
month They should not be asked to
violate either of the agreements and
we believe the public will be lenient
with them. They are as follows:
Lancaster, Ky, August 27. 1918.
In view of the fact that our Gov
eminent requests the reduction of all
labor and expenses and
also for mutual benefits, We the
bind ourselves in am or
known as the Lancaster
Retail Grocers Association for the
purpose of closing our business
houses at seven o'clock, beginning
Sept. LIST, 1918, excepting Saturdays
and further for the purpose of doing
away with all deliveries Of goods.
Therefore, we whose signatures !
appear below agree to the foregoing
agreement and bind ourselves as gen
.lemen to respect said agreements

iull and void.
