All Salem Bakeries
Complying With Rules
for Using Substitutes

Salem's bakeries are all complying
with the rules cf the food administra-
tion, it was announced today follow
ing an investigation by r. G. Jewell,
from the Portland office of the food
administration, and after samples of
bread taken from the bakeries had
been analyzed by Portland chemists.
All of the local plants are using at
least 20 per cent of substitute for flour
The investigation is the result of
charges made through the commercial
club, that some of the local shops were
"fudgingp a trifle on the amount of
substitute. The investigation showed
that the difference in the appearance
of the bread is not due to the differ
ence in the amount Of substitute, but
to the difference in the methods of
manufacture.
The investigation was started three
days ago, and the report of the analy-
sis was received from Portland this
morning. The. investigation of the meth
DDS used at the different bakeries was
conducted yesterday afternoon.

Serious Conflict
Over Water Rights
In Southern Oregon

State Engineer Lewis returned today
from Jackson county, and reports find
ing serious conflict in water rights,
and unnecessary expense in the propos-
ed plan of the Medford Talent Irriga-
tion districts, which propose to irri-
gate some 10000 acres in the Rogue
River Valley. Mr.. Lewis outlined a
plan for a joint construction of the can
ais which would serve both tracts and
beside avoiding a conflict of rights,
would save the two districts from 81
to 81 per acre.
In addition, the practicability of saw
ing in securing water for the districts
from johnson Prairie was suggested and
it is asked that thorough investigation
of the proposition be made. Construc-
tion work in the Talent district was ap-
proved only for the Mcdonald Creek
unit, which will not be affected by a
consolidation of plans. The work for this
section will start in a few days, it is
believed.
Mr.. Lewis also inspected the Grants
Pass and Gold Hill districts. Their
plans are nearing completion, and if
their bonds can be disposed of, it is
probable they will start work at once.

Government Regulation
Of All Grain Prices
Declared Necessary

Chicago, Mar. 9.-Government regula.
tion of all grain prices and fixing of
high maximum wheat price is needed
to force farmers to dispose of their
grain holdings and increase their acre
age, according ito food administration
officials here today.
With maximum wheat price, the Of
ficials say, the government would con
troll the market through its large buy
ing powers. Through the proposed regu-
lations, the food administration could
force farmers to market their grain and
the price of wheat substitutes could
be lowered.
Farmers show no inclination to dis
pose of their grain at present prices.
An Illinois farmer, appealed to by the
administration, refused to sell 10000
bushels of wheat at the 1920 govern
ment price.
The report of the bureau of crop es-
Inmates showing that Ill, $4,000 bush
els of wheat is held by farmers in the
face of a 49,823,000 bushel shortage in
the visible supply, emphasizes the need
of radical measures, say officials here.
