further notice, to observe meat
less meal each day. A more rigid
saving of bread stuffs is requested.
In view Of absolute necessity OF
further conservation OF wheat and
wheat products, the entire country
must adopt the fifty. fifty plan,
Using ouly the substitutes on the
original official list, as outlined in
Rule So. which provides for the
use OF one pound of wheat Hour
substitutes with every pound OF
wheat purchased. Wheat flour
substitutes include Hominy, Corn
meal edible corn starch cotn grits.
corn flour. barley -four, potato
flour, sweet potato four soy bean
-four. rice. rice flovr, buckwfeat
-four. feterita -four aud meals.
Therefore states not now on the
fifty fifty plan will enforce She
fifty-ffty rule beginning Monday,
March llth. We appreciate some
state will have difficulty in finding
substitutes. This simply means
that wheat and wheat products
should be sold only to the extent
that there are available substitutes
Of equal weight. thus resulting in
the saving of wheat for our Allies.
Once more we wish TO emphasize
that the more abundant meats
should be substituted for Our less
abundant bread stuffs.

WASHINGTON, May g. - Milan
Pribicevich is head of the Serbian
war mission now in the United States.
He has recruited here 10000 Yugo-
Slav volunteers for service in the Ser.
bian army on the Saloniki front. The
recruits will be sent to camp in
Canada and then transported over
seas by the British government.
The men Colonel Pribicevich has
recruited are Austrian subjects from
Croatia, Boznia and Herzegovina, also
Serbians and Montenegrins. They
are mostly miners and skilled work
men who have given up well-paying
positions to fight for their fellow
Slavs.
Comfort kits for the recruits are be-
ing furnished by the American Red
Cross. The American women's hos
pital fund has set aside $150.000 from
its recent drive for a special hospital
for these men. 1t will be erected in
Mesopotamia.

the gas in my stomach got so bad that
pains would come and I'd have a

Il was nervous too, and felt tired

Il began to feel better soon after
| started taking Tanlac but it wasn't
until after I'd taken all of the first
bottle that l noticed real improve

was being digested better, because
the bloating Of my stomach wasn't so
bad. Well, l kept on taking Tanlac
until I'd taken three bottles in all and
then my stomach was in fine shape.
I'm not bothered with any gas in my
stomach at all now.
