new BAKING RULES
Kansas City Meeting Designates Food
Regulations.

G. L. Jordan, proprietor of the Col
lege Hill bakery and head of the state
organization of bakers, is in Kansas
City to attend meeting of repre-
sentatives of baking concerns, held at
the Coates house. James Ketner, fed
eral food administrator for jackson
county, Missouri, is meeting with the
bakers, and urging upon them a strict
compliance with the government regu-
lations, and stating that no such leni-
ency with violations of the rules as
had been shown in the past, would
hold good in the future.
The newest rules, set forth by the
food administration, as outlined at the
Kansas City meeting, are as follows:
The consumption of wheat flour in
bakery products not to exceed 20 per cent
of the 1917 consumption is hereby re-
seinded.
Wheat flour substitutes for bakers re-
rye. which will be substitute when used
upon basis of not less than 40 per cent,
three pounds of standard wheat flour.
When rye is used in this proportion a
greater proportion, no other substitutes are
rye flour is used. the difference between
such amount used and 40 per cent must
% W q be to use one
of substitutes to each four pounds of
wheat flour in all bakery products, in
in which only 10 per cent of substitutes
other than rye are required:
The use of the name Victory will be
allowed in all products containing the
above proportions of substitutes.
The previous rules limiting licensees.
millers. wholesalers. retailers and bakers
| to thirty days supply of flour will be
changed to permit 60-day supply.
The rules limiting sales by retailers of
wheat flour to eighth of a barrel in
cities and quarter of a barrel in sparsely
settled districts rescinded.
The rule limiting the sale of flour by
millers to wholesalers or wholesalers to
retailers in combination with substitutes or
| certificates. therefore. and the rule re-
| strfcting the sale to 20 per cent of previ-
GUS sales, are rescinded.
Manufacturers of alimentary pastes and
| wheat breakfast foods are limited to their
| flour with the understanding that they are
not to undnly expand their ordinary con-
sumption of wheat.
i Rules prohibiting the starting of new
n1ants ready for operation prior to July
1918 rescinded.
| Where millers sell directly to consum-
erS. they shall obey the same regulations
as retail store dealers.
| Wheatless days and wheatless meals are
1 discontinued.
| Nothing in these regulations is to be
| construed TO mean that there has been any
| setting aside changing of the pure food
| laws as promulgated by the bureau OF
| chemistry. department of agriculture. or
| the internal revenue law as administered
/ by the internal revenue commissioner
! which requirements must be conformed to
by manufacturers and dealers in all cases

folk back home on very i'll patients,
and write letters for the ones who are
too ill to do it. I had an interesting
experience of that type this afternoon.
A corporal very, very weak and just
operated upon, told me his pal on the
next bed wanted me to write a letter.
Corporal on the Job
81 got some paper and sat down by
the pal to write what he gave me. 1
asked him whom he wanted it written
to. He hesitated, bashfully. The
corporal, struggling to raise himself,
tho awfully weak, whispered, Tell her,
lad, tell her. Despite his pains, he was
being a corporal to the last and en-
couraging his pal
THE man beside me looked up half
! shamefacedly, and then said, It's to
my girl, miss. Tell her I'm wounded
but I'll soon be back with her again, L
guess. because my legs gone. Ask her
if she cares if 1 only have one leg
Another day I had to write a let
ter for a Tommy. He said. It's to my
| wife. Just tell her I'm wounded again,
but I'll be about. Tell her I'm on
the wrong side of France, tho, to get
| to Blighty.'
Then we have many inquiries to
make. People in America who want
| to locate sons or relatives are sup
posed to cable the Red Cross home and
hospital service. That is what we're
for. We get the information. and send
| it back as soon as possible.

for him. Only today man who was
worried asked me to find out if he
had to pay taxes on his land when he
was in the army. I sent that thru
the Paris office, and in a few days
can give him the answer.

cause he worried. He saw a vision
and thought his wife was dead. AL

Rheumatism Has Never Been Curet
by Liniments or Lotions, and
Never VIII Be.

You never knew of rheumatism,
that most painful source of suffering
being cured by liniments, lotions or
other external applications. And you
will never see anything but temporary
relief afforded by such makeshifts.
But why be satisfied with tempo
rary relief from the pangs Of pain
which are sure to return with in

Science has proven that rheumatism
