10 SUBSCRIBERS

The burden that newspapers have been carry
ing since the war have been added to continually,
and it is now stated that new government order
will be made that will affect them all the more:
It is apparent that the only way that the pa
pers can partially meet the situation is through
raise in rates. The subscription rates of the
Herald, although the cost of production has been
increased at least $50 per cent, has remained the
same We are strongly contemplating raise
and it would be we'll for our subscribers to take
advantage of the present "before the war" price
at this time
Your last receipt or the date on your paper
will give you the right cue as to how you stand
For instance if the figures opposite your name
printed on the paper or wrapper are 11-27-17, it
means that you are paid to the eleventh month,
9th day and to the year 1917.
Doitnow. You still have the privilege of pay
ing year in advance at the present price of 81 so
per year.
Make all checks payable to Herald Printing
Co., Little Falls MINI.
PS.-Don't forget the arrearages.

second degree murder on all three
counts, before Judge Rocser in district

is sane at this time, but that there was
something the matter with him at the
time the crime was committed.
Wozniak murdered the children while
they were asleep in their beds. He was
under the impression that they would
starve to death because Of the poor
crop conditions.
4 nogro, Cal McFadden, and two boys
agod Is and 16, who were arrested a
short time ago for breaking into a
merchandise car and stealing three
oyercoats and some hats, were brought
into district court Wednesday after
noon, where they plead guilty to the
charges against ktheln. McFadden was
sentenced to ffom not less than one
and not more than ten years in the
state penitentiary on a charge Of first
degree grand larceny.
The two boys, Harold Nedrebo and
Earl Godin pelad guilty to second de-
gree grand larceny and were given a
sentence Of ono year in the reforma-
tory which was suspended providing
they would go to work.
Anyone who is in need of help can
get either Of the boys or both, as the
case may be, by applying to County

80 PER CENT FLOUR
ONE-FIFTH SUBSTITUTE TO TAKE
PLACE OF HALF-QUANTITY
RESTRICTION REMOVED

Wheatlcss days and wheatlcss meals
will come to an end Sept. ! and the
"5O-50'' rule for purchases of wheat
-four will be superseded by a more leni-
ent program, it was announced Wednes-
day by the federal food administra-
ton.
Consumers Of the United States will
60 on a basis agreed to by all the AL
lied countries and will use only 90 per
cent of substitutes with 80 per cent of
wheat flour.
Restrictions on the quantity Of -four
to be sold or to be kept on hand and
on the amount bakers may use, are re-
moved.
Difficulty housewives have expert
enccd in mixing the wheat -four and the
substitutes is also to be eliminated. The
Minnesota food administration said
that the federal administration had
indicated plainly that it wanted millers
to prepare the various flours ready
mixed. This the administration con-
tends will tend to lessen the waste due
to experiments.
The bountiful new wheat crop, it is
announced, makes it possible to relieve
the people Of burdensome rules and by
observing the moderate restrictions put
in effect Sept. l, the wheat supply will
be made to serve easily through anoth-
er year.
Conservation still is necessary to
avoid disaster from short crop next
year, Herbert C. Hoover says in the
message received by A. D. Wilson, state
food administrator, but rules can be
considerably revised.
cit has been agreed that the wheat
bread of the Allies shall contain 20 per
cent of other grains,' the food admin
istration explained, "and it is
only just we should bear our share in
this saving and our bread at least
should be universal with those who are
suffering more greatly from the war
than ourselves.
Distribution and transportation cir
cumstanccs in the United States render
it necessary to rely largely on volun-
tary action of our homes to enforce
this mixture. The Victory bread is
wholesome and there is no difficulty in
preparation. "

1t is impossible to do justice to many

stores in the city and deliver to all
residences south and southeast Of

pay delivery when the groceries arrive,
he will take them back to the store
from where they were ordered. He will
make special deliveries in the mean
time but will make charge Of Is cents
for each delivery.
Cards will be printed designating the
also the schedule Of delivery. They
