tBy NJ, ID. Food Administration.)
Within the past two weeks new
and drastic regulations haze been
put into effect by the United States
Food Administration and North Da-
kota has been asked to do It's share
along with the rest Of the nation.
Federal Food Administrator Ladd
has appealed to the farmers to mar.
ket all their wheat % soon as pos.
sible and not later than June Let.
The first order was to have the wheat
all marketed by May 18th but the
State Food Administrator secu:ed an
extension Of time until June 1st 80
that there would be no possible lack
OF seed wheat and 80 that the farm.
ers would not need to take the time
from their seeding to haul this wheat
to market.
In addition to this the consumers Of
North Dakota, with the people Of the
rest OF the nation, have been restrict
ed to tx pounds Of wheat flour per
person per week and cards have been
issued for the merchants Of the state
which will allow the Food Admins.
traitor to keep a close check on the
amount of flour. flour substitutes aud
sugar sold to each individual.
These are war measures and grow
out OF a Military necessity. The Unf
ted States has pledged its word To
its associates in the war to furnish
them with n certain amount OF wheat
and they are dependent on that prom.
Use.
The situation is critical and sert
Gus in the extreme. Unless tho UNI
ted States can furnish this wheat
there is a possibility Of the collapse OF
one or more Of tho allied countries
which would entail frlghtful disas
ter for the allied cause. II England
or France should be forced out Of the

account of the lack Of food, 1t would
cost the United States billions more
In treasure and possibly millions more

their fighting front.
Tho possibility Of such disaster
has been forcaeen ard pointed out by
