RESTAURANT MEN
HAVE A MEETING

The restaurant, cafe, hotel ant!
boarding house people of Baxte
Springs had a very interesting meet
ing Wednes. afternoon at the Chan
ber of Commerce. They met ut tn
suggestion of the Council Of Defens
to get together on the regulations is
sued by the national and state foo
commissions, and particularly at thi:
time in regard to beef, sugar an
wheat. Those who attended the meet
ing, were very desirious of complying.
at all times with the regulations ant
they are asking that all others, en-
gagged in like business in the city, com
ply also before it becomes necessar!
for a representative of the govern
ment to call and enforce the rulings.
The most recent beef regulation
provide that there are but four beef
meals q week henceforward-rOas'
beef can be served on Mondays at tn;
noon meal, boiled beef on Tuesday,
and Thursdays at the noon meal, anC
beefsteak on Saturdays only at the
evening or supper meal. Pork, chick

tions in regard to both sugar an'

been asked to furnish them, and i'm
mediately upon their receipt the cafe
men will put them into execution. Al
ter July /, it is known, that each per.
son can have but 8 pounds of sugar
per month. The cafes are using every
effort also to comply with the wheat
regulations, but there seems to bt
some difference of opinion regarding
them.

1 BY Frank Hills,
In Miami RecOrd-Herald.

II may be news to some that the
greatest flotation machine in the
world is the invention Of Fred De-
Mier, flotation expert of the Picher
Lead Company, but such is the case.
The machines are not on sale and
none are in use except those at the
Picher plants and one at the Minerals
Flotation plant, a failing mill at the
Blue Mound plant on the state line
north of Picher.
Mr.. DeMier is a native of Missouri,
having been raised at Bonneterre.
He was employed for several years
by the American Zinc Co., then
spent several more with the st. Joe
lead Company, coming to the Picher
Lead Company couple Of years ago,
there he has remained since.
When Mr.. DeMier arrived in Pich-
n he had in his possession a small
model of a flotation machine, which
ne had studied out but which he was
not in a position to put into practical
use.
General Superintendent George
Potter of the Picher Co., was interest
ID in the device and assigned a car
penter to the young man and told
,aim to build one at the Picher White
bird mill, Which he did and which
mas been in use ever since. This was
the beginning of the Picher Flota-
sion system that saved that company
a million dollars last year and which
is being added to all Of the time as
It is the intention Of the manage
ment to have one at every mill.
The DeMier machine excells al
Of the other machines as it is prac-
tically fool proof and If anything
goes wrong, II can be repaired al
very little cost. II has a greater
capacity to the expense of installa'
tiOn than any other machine. 1t hai
continual agitation and is a doublt
spit machine while all Of the other
are single.
Mr.. DeMier has never made an ef'
fort to get his machine on the market
but there Is no doubt that should h
do so, II would make him a rich man
