FOR CANNING PURPOSES
Purchase % Pounds Only at Time

turned to Grocer.

No limit is placed on the pur-
chase of sugar for canning pur-
poses, according to County Food
Administrators NJ o. Griswold.
Cards signed by the housewife
pledging to use the % pounds al
lowed for canning purposes are is
sued by the grocer. The housewife
may use one of these cards at a
time, buying only % pounds of su
gar on each occasion. According
to Mr.. Griswold as many cards as
the housewife needs will be sup
piled. Should the administrator
find, however. that any of the su-
gar is used for other than canning
or preserving purposes the offend
ers are liable to prosecution.
The card pledges the purchaser
of the sugar to return all surplus
not used to the grocer from whom
it was bought. Failure to obey with
this order places the misdoer liable
to penalties.
Many Cards Out.
Thus far 1900 of the sugar pledge
cards have been distributed among
the residents by Mr. Griswold. An
equal number remains to be given
to the sugar users.

NEEDED TO GUARD.
The Neues Wiener Journal of
Feb thus reports the latest met
rOpolitan phenomenon:
That people should stand in
line to get meat, potatoes, cigars
and sugar is in these troublous
times a sight we are accustomed
to; but that to acquire a dog they
should. on certain days, be arrayed
in line before the animal refuge in
Ottatring may well pass for the
latest shade in the much-talked-of
application nuisance. Those who
thought the difficulty of supplying
dogs with food would lead to a
great diminution in their numbers,
perhaps even in Vienna, to the ex-
tinctiOn of certain breeds of dogs,
have found that they were quite
mistaken by reference to the facts
The demand for dogs has. on the
contrary, increased enormously
with the increase in burglaries and
thefts The management of the
animal refuge of Vienna supplies
the following interesting particu-
lars: 1t is now a fairly frequent
occurrence that people present
themselves for dogs even before
our Office is opened. The appli-
cants are usually wives of bust
ness men and tradesmen who have
been called to the colors, foremen

dogs left here, when they learn a
certain true-bred dog is TO be dis
posed of upon a certain day, apply
in good time in order to make sure
of getting it. Some families, de-
spite the scarcity of food, are rails
ing several dogs for profit. That
the demand for dogs is great is
further evident from the small
number Of stray dogs in Vienna.
Because Of their increased value
dogs are guarded with more care"
