BAKER IS FINED *
$500 BY BAIRD

It will cost Hedge Carlson, pro-
prietor of Matson's Home bakery at
Devils Lake $500 to stay in the bak-
cry business. Carlson must turn
over this amount to the state Red
Cross as the result of hearing be-
fore R. O. Baird, executive secre-
tarp to DR.. E. F. Ladd, federal food
administrator for the state, or have
his case certified to the Federal
district court for prosecution or
have his place of business closed
for the period kof the war. He has
until Friday to reach a decision:
positive proof was found of
Carlson's guilt in violating the Food
Administration rules, said Mr..
Baird today. Records which were
secured from his office showed that
he had used more white flour In
proportion to the hour substitutes
he had purchased, than is permit
ted under the rules.
"Some of the bakers seem to
have the idea that the food admin
istration is helpless in checking up
the amount of -four they are put
ting into their bread. 1t is true
that it is practically impossible to
tell, from chemical analysis wheth-
er q loaf of bread contains the re-
:auired prcentage Of substitutes.
But this does not keep us from
knowing almost to q pound, just
what proportion Of substitutes each
baker Is using.

TO OPEN NURSING
SCHOOL IN B0WBElLS

The local Red Cross organization
on Wednesday Of this week started
class in home hygiene and care of
the sick, with Mrs. Wistrom Of
Flaxton, a graduate nurse, as in
structor.
The Red Cross course in elemen-
tary hygiene and home care OF the
sick consists Of fifteen lessons. bas-
ed on the Red Cross text book, and
supplemented by practical demon
strations on these lessons.
It Is by no means intended to be
a war course, and in no wise ade-
quately prepares woman to under
take the responsibilities of profes-
sional nursing. 1t is strictly an
educational course. for young wo-
men, housewife, and mother. It
enables her to meet with increased
understanding and ability the re-
spOnsib1lities that her duties at
home and in her community bring
to her.
There is at present. moreover. the
necessity that our women undertake
more, and more, the care of the
sick in their own homes, in order
that more professional nurses may
be released for needed service else
where.
The diploma of this course does
not permit or qualify anyone to en-
roll as Red Cross nurse, but does
prepare those who wish to become
Red Cross aids. Not only diplo-
ma Of this course is needed but Sc
lection for service and further pre-
paration by period OF practical
hospital experience
First -Age-Preferably from Is
to 35 years.
Second from home ties
which might interfere with service.
Unmarried women and widows will
be given preference in assignment
to duty.
Third-satisfactory physical con-
dition.
Fourth-Adequate credentials.
Fifth-Special fitness for the
work. There are some exceptions
made to those candidates possessing
special qualifications. The dtplo-

WHITE BREAD BACK
ON SEPTEMBER |

All restrictions on the amount of
wheat flour that may be purchased
are to be removed after September
/ and the $3.50 rule governing the
sale of flour and flour substitutes
will be superseded by an 1920 rule
SUPER cent of wheat flour to 20 per
cent of substitutes.
In the matter of white bread the
people of the United States will
share and share alike with the al
lied nations. Americans will get
exactly the same amount OF, wheat
in their bread as will the people OF
England. France and Italy and no
less.
iHhe announcement OF the new
program comes after mature de-
liberations at conference Of the
food administrators of the entire al
lied world, from WHICH Hoover has
just returned. 1t is believed by
Federal Food Administrator Ladd
that the program as outlined in the
new rules will be the established
rule governing the sale and use of
wheat flour and substitutes until the
harvest of 1919.
An innovation announced by Mr..
Hoover in outlining the new pro-
gram, is the plan to furnish the pub
lie with a "Victory -four which is to
contain 20 per cent or substitutes
mixed with the wheat -four at the
mill. Those purchasing this -four
will not be required to buy substi-
tutes.
k 1t will also be possible to buy
white hour, with 20 per cent of sub
stitutes-corn flour, rice flour and
certain other flour will also be
available as substitutes.
Victory -four and all substitute
fours are to be milled in accordance
with the standards of the United
States Food Administration.
The announcement is made that
the price of "Victory" floLr contain
ing 20 per cent of substitutes is in
no case to be higher than the price
of wheat -four.
Bakers bread is to contain 20 per
cent of substitutes, and bakers are
to be allowed to purchase -four with
out restrictions:

are considered of local interest and

started to say was that Private Al
bert Bejan, who Is stationed at

shere ~no~E1on a 80 day turiough.
came very near losing his life in
an automobile spill about a mile
east of the city on Thursday after
noon of last week, but on account Of
his extremely good luck he got out
of the rumpus without a scratch.
We are told that Albert was travel
ing east at the time and that a car
in front of him was not moving as
fast as it should. Albert is al
ways in a hurry and didn't want to
waste any more time on the road
than necessary, SO attempted to
pass. The driver ahead would not
stand for this and speeded up his
car, and Albert did the same.
While both cars were running at a
high rate Of speed Albert's Ford ran
into ditch and tipped over, throw
ing the driver clear. When it fin
ally stopped the car was lying on its
cushions with motor still running
and the hind wheels spinning to
beat seven of a kind. Albert got
some assistance in setting the car
the way it should be, and on inves-
tigation found that the only dam
age done was a broken wind shield.
His many friends here are glad that
Albert was not in any way injured,
and that he is still in first class
physical condition and fit to hold
his own with score or more of the
baby killing Huns.
