SUGAR AVAILABLE
NOW FOR CANNING
County Food Administrator
Walker Sends Out In
formation
NOT LIMITED TO
NEW PURCHASERS
Statement by State Food Adnlinistra-
tor Issued from Headquarters, To-
gether with New Rules-Need for
Conservation Still Exists.

Householders viii be pleased to know
that the sugar situation has improved
to such an extent that sugar is now
available for canning purposes, not only
for those who have been unable to OBJ
tain sugar for that purpose but also for
those who have already secured an al
lotment. This fact is conveyed in
communication to county food admins
traitors and in statement for publ
cation today issued by the state food
administration headquarters at Mont
pelier.
In view of this improved condition
County Food Administrator Horton d.
Walker of Brattleboro sent new print
ed matter and blanks yesterday to all
the local food administrators in Wind
ham county so that the information
would be in their hands today.
1t was only a short time ago that
ruling was made that those who had
secured an allotment of sugar for
canning could not obtain any more
for that purpose. With that in mind
the county administrator, assisted by
members of the patriotic league of this
town, obtained the names of all
persons in the county who had bought
sugar for canning and sent lists to
the local food administrators in order
that they might avoid issuing dupli-
cate allotments While this work now
goes for naugkt it is pleasure TO
know that the shortage is not now SO
acute
There is not enough sugar, however,
| to Justify changing the rule limiting
| the sales for purposes other than can
ming to two pounds a month for each
| person, and the necessity for conserv-
ing in that respect continues as hereto
| fore.
The statement issued by the state
headquarters, concerning the new rules,
is as follows:
Frank Fl. Brooks, federal food ad-
ministrator. announced today plan
| whereby all those households who have
fruits or vegetables to preserve may
obtain sugar. Mr.. Brooks has striven
faithfully to see that first these house
holds which did not get sugar for can
ming last summer could get q supply.

an opportunity and for the most part
have improved il.
The Food Administration is striving
to see that in spite of the sugar short
age, fruits and vegetables will be pre-
served. To this end, the public i
informed of the rules applying to the
distribution of sugar now available fol
this purpose, which are as follows:
/. Apply TO your local food admin
istrator for one of the new "sugal
permits for home canning," stating hov
many pounds you need up to % lbs. ant
how many pounds you have on han,
for all purposes. If you have ha'
any sugar for canning, state how mucl
