A $3.50 FOOD
BASIS FOR
IDAHO
State Administrator Heeds the
Call of Hoover-Obeyance
Required.

Boise, March 1O-There Is an abso-
tion of wheat and wheat products
and Idaho along with the rest of the
country must adopt the $3.50 plan,
using only the substitutes officially
authorized, according to telegraphic
advices received this morning by
Food Administrator Bickncll from
Hoover.
Mr. Bicknell said he had no other
alternative but to enforce the rule
and he will make it effective in Idaho
beginning Monday next, March IL.
In Mr.. Hoover's wire he states he
appreciates that some states will
have difficulty to find substitutes but
this simply means that wheat or
wheat products should be sold only
to the extent that there are available
substitutes Of equal weight, thus re
sulting in conservation Of wheat for
the allies.
The wire emphasizes tnat our more
abundant meats should he substituted
for our less abundant bread stuffs. In
this connection Idlhos food admin
istrator said that the people of this
state can serve themselves and the
government in Il three-fold way by
practically ceasing to use both wheat
flour and the cereal substitutes and
instead use potatoes in increased pro
portions along with meat
As ! recently suggested" said Mr.
Bicknell, my personal opinion is that
/ if the public at large will stop using
/ flour and the substitutes for a period
of from 80 to 90 days and will use in
stead potatoes, they will not only
conserve as the necessities of the case
demand but they will drive down the
price of both -four and substitutes
and at the same time furnish a market
for our large supply of potatoes.
Refusal to use both -four and sub
stitutes would be much reader
remedy against the high prices con
corning which 50 much complaint il
made than any regulation the food
administration could devise.
while it would perhaps be neces
sary to make exceptions to this sug
gestion in favor of inyalids and chill
dren, l can see no reason why oul
adult population could not for "a perioC
90 upon potato and meat diet anC
absolutely eliminate bread stuffS from
their meals.
Il regret that completion of the
wheat census by the national admins
tration renders necessary the revoca
tion of my ruling of few days agt
permitting -four to be sold in the ratio
of one part substitutes to three oI
wheat -four, thus causing the peopl,
of this state to be put absolutely OF
the original $3.50 plan, but circum
stances over which neither the nation
al administration nor my admins
tration had any control have decreet
otherwise.
1T is therefore incumbent upon M,
to call upon all the citizens of thi.
state, both consumers and dealers, t.
comply with both the letter and spiri
Of the law, and that with every pur
chase of wheat -four there be a pur
chase of equal amount of substitute.
and that no attempts be made to pur
chase -four otherwise. In addition
appeal again to all our citizens tina
they contine their consumption O.
white wheat flour to the absolute mini
mum of their requirements"

PER BUSHEL
FOR BAGS
US. Grain Corporation Makes
Pleasing Announce
ment.

San Francisco, March 10.-FarmerS
throughout the eastern states will be
allowed nine cents per bushel, or ap-
proximately twenty cents each. for
bags ON sacked wheat for the new
crop of 1918, it was announced yes
terday by Z. A. Levin, second vice
president of the grain corporation OF
the United States food administra-
ton, and zone agent for California,
Nevada and AriZonl. The new price
amounts TO an increase of about
eleven cents per bag over allowances
for the 1917 crop and will assure the
farmer an adequate return on the
price he has to pay for new bags, 1t
was said.
There has been agitation over the
high prices being asked for bags Tor
the new crop. A full investigation
was held last week in Washington be-
fore the war trade board and the evil
dence went to show the present high
prices are due to the high prices de-
manded for bagc in Calcutta, and not
to any speculation on the part of bag
men here.
While no definite allowance Is set
for barley, it is known that the value
of second hand bags is added to the
bulk value of the barley, and mdl-
rectly the falmel will get back just
about the same proportion of the COST
of his bags when he sells his barley.
Many farmers, it was said, do not
realize this, but feel that they have
TO stand the entire expense of sack
I ing tn grain.
The assurance of the new price SO
far as the grain corporation is con-
Germ d. is contingent upon the fact
that the end of the war or otheI
causes might BE- such that the grain
corporation would not handle tne
wheat crop this coming year as IL
has in the past, and that the allow,
ance Of nine ceEts a bushel Is paseu

The present week brings the wei.
come news that Food Administr,l
tor Hoover releases all housewives
from their voluntary pledges 70 eat

bountiful wheat crop Is almost hsr-
vested and renders total abstinence
from wheat unnecessary. However.

10 guard against possible crop failure
next year. Also, we shall never again

the food value and varied tlavors Of
corn, rye, barley and oates too well

ment in bread-msking. Just as the re.
lease from whsatlessness arrives the
culture announces the discovery o.
wheat we have sought 50 lonE-a loaf
bread made with yeast and withoU,
wheat. The whole country has been
looking for this 100 per cent Theat!c5s
loaf and the seekers will not be sat

cry.
Here's the government recipe:
Make a sponge by mixing l 81 cup.

Is cupfuls Of rice -four or 2 80 cup
fuls OF sweet potato -four, or is
cupiuls OF tapiocs -four.
The restriction n wheat -four for
baking are still in force and It is still
necessary to buy an equal amount OF
wheat substitute -four with each pur.
chase OF wheat -four. For this reason
wheat substitutes will accumulate and
will still be used in home baking, but
complete wheatlessneSs Is no longer
necessary.

A SUGGESTION ANENT
CHANGE OF TIME

According to the daylight saving
law, all clocks and watches must be
set up an hour Immediately after mid
night Sunday night. AS to whether
people shall rise earlier, go to church
earlier or go to bed earlier is left
with themselves, but they must set
their time up.
Some of the church folks don't
know exactly how the new time will
affect their services. They are afraid
people will be coming in all thru the
services and some about the time of
closing. They have asked the Star to
ask the fire department to ring
o'clock by the new time on its big
bell, and for all the church and Sun
day school people to set their clocks
and watches by it.
