Feed Dealers to be Licensed.

In an effort to prevent boarding OF con-
centrated and mixed feeding stuffs by
spectators, the food administration has
deemed it advisable to license manufac-
lures of the dealers in commercial feeds
for livestock, cattle and hogs. President
Wilson has issued a proclamation plac-
ing the industry under license control on
and after February 15.
The food administration declares that
boarding of stock feeds has been more or
less prevalent since the beginning of the
war, and has resulted in extraordinarily
high prices during the period of scant pro-
duction. The administration hopes to
stabilize the price Of dairy and stock feeds.
Without the license requirements it was
powerless to prevent many evils which
tended to encourage increased prices.
Failure to secure licenses by February
is may be punished pya fine not in ex-
cess OF 5000, by imprisonment for rot
more than one year, or by both fine and
imprisonment. Applications for license
should be addressed to the United States
Food Administration, License Division,
Washington, ID. g., specifying the nature
OF the business TO be licensed.

Food Survey In Maiae,

To determine how much too6stus the
average household in Maine has ON hand,
how much food the people are using and
how it is being used, a household survey
OF this State is to be made Immediately by
the extension forces of the college of
agriculture of the University of Maine
under the direction OF Miss Catherine NJ
Platts. The food administrasion has,
asked the Department of Agriculture to
make these surveys in every state, and
the work will be done by the colleges of
agriculture.
Food surveys will be made in eight coun-
ties in this State, Somerset, Knox,
Waldo, Aroostook, Kennebec, Cumber-
land, Androscoggiu and Penobscot.
A fine not exceeding 81 900 or imprison-
ment not exceeding one year, or both, is
fixed as punishment for any individual
or concern who wilfully fails to make re-
port when requested, or wilfuIly reports
incorrectly. The government, however,
counts on the full corporation of the
affected trades, industries and individ-
uais, and hopes that there will be very
few cases in which 1t will be necessary to
enforce compliance through prosecution.
