NEW RULES ON
MILL PRODUCTS

The new wheat rules effective on
September 1st and announced by Food
Administrator Hoover through the
State food administration, provide
for a Victory" flour to be mixed and
distributed by the flour mill through
out the country.
This -four will to certain extent
relieve the purchaser of -four from
buying substitutes but whenever
wheat flour is purchased the twenty
per cent Of other cereals must be
bought. The Victory -four will con-
tain these cereals already mixed.
Under the new rules all bakers
bread shall contain twenty per cent of
other cereals. Corn meal should be
purchased separately for combination
sales and corn meal used in place Of
wheat -four or Victory -four whenever
possible.
The mixtures for Victory -four will
be as follows:
Mixed wheat and barley -four shall
be in the proportion of four pounds
wheat to one pound barley flour.
Mixed wheat and corn -four shall
contain the proportion of four pounds
wheat flour to one pound corn -four
Mixed wheat and rye flour shall
contain the proportion of three
pounds of wheat -four and not less
than two pounds of rye -four.
Whole wheat, entire wheat or gra-
ham flour or meal shall contain at
least 95 per cent of the wheat berry.
All the above Victory mixed fiours
may be sold without substitutes, but
at no greater price from the miller,
wholesaler or retail dealer than in
the case of standard wheat -four.
"The new regulations supersede
the fifty-fifty rule. The retail dealer
selling standard wheat -four is re-
quired to carry In stock either barley
flour, corn meal or corn -four and
with every sale of wheat flour must
sell combination of some one or
more of these In the proportion Of
one pound substitutes to each four
pounds of wheat -four. No dealer
may force any other substitutes in
combination upon the consumer and
t ehsubstitutes must conform to the
standards fixed by the United States
food administration"

at least one hundred pro-Germans

more than its quota OF men. He
commended the citizens for turning
out in large numbers to bid farewell
to the boys leaving for the front.
In closing he said that as Mount

American soldiers in the Valley of the
Marne stand as a shrine to the
liberty of the world.
After patriotic songs had been sung,
the crowd went to the depot and there

At THEATERS
NEXT WEEK

Every American wants to konw the
truth about what his country is doing
In the war, how great a factor In the
world strife OF the Nation has be-
come In its first year of participation
what is being accomplished with the
vast sums collected and expended and
what the Allies may expect of the
United States in the cause OF civiliza-
tion. To avoid limiting the people to
the knowledge they can CLEAN from
the printed page, and limited authen-
tic photographs and to give to them a
'clear insight into the vast achieve
ments In our war preparations, the
Government will show series or
official war films taken by the U. S.
Signal Corps and Navy photographers
and cameramen of the French Gen.
eral Staff both at home and abroad.

ties OF the cantonments and aviation
fields, the munition and arms plants
and shipyards at home and the par
ticipation of the army and navy
abroad.
The first of the Official War Films,
'PERSHING'S CRUSADERS,o will
be shown at the Minden Theatre,
Thursday, September 9TH and at VAL
halla theatre Friday, September 9th,
giving the people of Carson Valley
their first opportunity to grasp their
first full idea of the achievement
with places America in the front line
of war activities in the war. The
pictures are presented by the Film
division OF the Committee ON Public
Information, George Creel, Chairman,
and distributed by the First National
Exhibitors Circuit, Inc.
In that portion Of the picture deal
ing with the preparatory activities in
cruiting OF our army, the building and
occupation OF the huge environments,
the training, clothing and feeding of
bur troops, the manufacture of arms
and munitions, the building of ship
yards and construction of wooden and
steel ships, the aviation fields and
young fiiers in training, the assem-
bling at our ports of locomotives,
tanks, trucks and vast stores of war
supplies.
On the pictures taken in France you
see "our boys" marching to the front
line, occupying the trenches, watch
ing the Huns from advanced obserya-
tons posts. Stores of munitions
flowing like rivers to the front, our
heavy artillery equipment, SO camou-
ilaged that you would never know it
was in place. Secretary of War Ba-
ker is seen in his first tour of in
spection in France. General Pershing
and Secretary Baker are shown on
their tours of inspection to the camps
and trenches of our Crusaders"
This is a picture the Government
wants you to see. 1t is one every
mother, sister or sweetheart should
see. The Buddies are shown actually
at the grim business of war. You
will feel proud at the light hearted
way they take it.

.clnnis Boys
Hold Reunion
In France

From letters from Lisle McInnis
from France to relatives in Reno, and
published in the Reno Gazette. the
following was taken:
A little army tent in an American
CAMP, somewhere in France" was
the scene on July 2Sth, of one of the
happiest family reunions that has TAX
EN- place in the war stricken country
for many months. The four brothers
well known in Reno as we'll as Car
son Valley, gathered together In the
little tent to talk over the war and to
express fervent desires to finish their
job in France in a hurry so they can
come back to the u s. A.
The four McInnis boys, Lisle, Sam,
Clease and VIII, are nephews of Mrs.
Lisle Jamison of Reno. Three of the
men, Sam, Clease and Will were at
Camp Lewis and two of them are In
the same company. These three cros-
sed the ocean together and landed In
France in the same division. Lisle
has been In France for several months
and through an accident heard that
his brothers division had reached
there and he started out to find them.
On the trip from the station, where
they landed to the interior they were
loaded on French troop train with
between thirty-five and fifty men In
each car. The train pulled on to q
siding to allow a fast express to pass,
when the express missed the switch in
some way and crashed into the rear
end of the troop train demolishing five
cars and badly damaging two others.
Nineteen men belonging to the same
company as the McInnis boys were
killed and sifty-six wounded. Will
and Clcase were in the same car but
no one in was injured. Sam was
in another car and came out without
a scratch, though the car was turned
completely over and all broken to
pieces. Three of the men in 1t wero
killed. Andrew Minetto,anothcr Re-
no boy, did not fare SO we'll. Seven
men we're killed in the car In which he
was riding. He was cut on the head
End scaldcd slightly but is expecting
to leave the hospital soon.
In speaking of his brothers, Lisle
wrote: 1T was just piece of luck
that happened to run onto them.
was out with a truck one day and met
a fellow from their division 90 made
inquiries and went over and located
them. | walked in on Bill, who was
in his barracks writing a letter, and
he nearly fell dead hen he saw me.
Cleace and Sam heard was there and
came in a little later SO we had one
grand family reunion. l stayed from
eleven until five o'clock, so had nice
visit. The boys of the company who
came through alright are feeling badly
as they were all so proud Of their out
fii, and it must have been pretty
hard blow"

and newspaper correspondents who i have visited the French fighting lines all say that the American people do
 not realize the immensity of the con flict and the tremendous demand that
 the casualties make on relief orSani-
 cations. In this connection few fig
 lres are interesting and impressive. The American Red Cross reports that it is supplying supplies to 3 300 hospi- tals in France in which wounded and sick soldiers are receiving care. That is large number, an enormous num- ber but Americans will be more deeply interested in the further statement that the United States soldiers will re quire in IFrance larger number of thospials beds than are now to be, found in all the hospitals in the Uni ted States including such public in stitutiOns as Bellevue, New York, the Cook County in Chicago, and all the private and public hospitals and san. atariums from Maine 10 California.
 Consider these figures and what they mean. Realize that on average the soldiers from any one state-Ark- ansas, Missouri Texas--will require more hospital beds in France than there are in the state they left, many more in the case of new states that are not well-supplied with hospitals
 Then you will realize the importance of the work the American Red Cross is doing and the necessity that the organization shall have the 1O0,O00.- 900 1t asks. Yes, and as many mCSa millions as the directors of, it's activit- ies say can be used to relief suffering and hasten the end of the war

Candidates for County Con vention Must Circulate
 Petitions.

Circulation of petitions by eandi- dates for places on the Democratic County Central Committee and as delegates for places on the Demo, cratic convention, required under

 The petitions must be signed by 1o electors in the ward or township ill which the candidate seeks to be ell ected, and must be presented to the secretary of the committee on or be fore May 21, when the committee will choose the judges and clerks for the primary of May 2S.

PREFERS JAIL TO
 LIVING WITH WIFE;

Little Rock, May 5.-The saying, 'even the worm will turn.' proved true in the case of R. H. Bhler, a far mer of Owen. township who, after his wife had administered several sound beatings to him, suddenly became very angry yesterday and in return beat her, for which he was promptly ar rested and fined $10 by a justice of the peace.
 Sympathetic neighbors immediately offered to pay the fine, but the man replied that he preferred to go to iail than live with his wife. and conse- quently deputy sheriff of Owen township brought him to Little Rock and placed him in the Pulaski county jail.
 Bhler said, also, that if he left his wife she would prosecute him, which he wishes to avoid, and now he is wei coming the quiet days to be spent in lail. His two-Vear- old child is said to be in the Detention home, and was placed there following declaration by the mother that she did not want it.
