ALASKA GOING ~OyER THE TOP,
IN FOOD CONSERVATION

From Alaska come encouraging re-
ports of cheerful and hearty co-opera-
ton with the United States food ad-
ministration. From the 100 assistant
federal food administrators through
out the territory have been received
many good reports of savink. The
general ring of these reports is, We
are for our country. first. last. and
always. The quotation is from the
administrator at Rampant. Alaska
where there is government expert
mental station. and is indicative of the
cooperation being given by the con-
sumers of food In Alaska.
In a majority of A'askan towns
there is great activity I'm making viz
tory gardens, Radishes. rutabag es.
turnips potatoes. and lettuce 10 well
in southeastern Alaska
A resident Of C1rdova recently asked
the Alaska food administration If ii
would be in order to furnish the mar
ket. for thirty days, several thousand
seagull eggs. It was stated that the
method aof gathering them would in
sure fresh eggs. and also that a fair
sale for the eggs could be had The
administration informed him that the
laws of Alaska prohis tied the taking
OF seagull eggs, and that at this time
ii did not seem possible to work out
plan of marketing these eggs.

STRICT OBSERVANCE
Of SUGAR RATION
Food Administrator VIII See That
Sugar In sold Only Two Pounds
Per Capita.

In ovder that the sugar apportion~
rent may be fair the local food ad-
ministrator will keep in closer touch
with retail rnerchan is to see that Gus
toners only get the two pounds per
person allotment with the extra al
lowed for canning and preserving. The
food administrator is allowed sugar for
the city on q basis OF the population
with extra for preserving purposes
Richmond Is entitled to soc, 900 pounds
per month. not including the extra pre-
serving allotment This is on the basis
OF 3o0,o 900 for a community OF 10000
Last month the state of Virginia
used 1000, 600 pounds of sugar. The
local administrator has been assigned
the duty Of keeping in closer touch
with merchants under a new rule is
sued by the United States food admin
istration-
There will be no danger OF a. sugar
famine or shortage and there will be
enough sugar for preserving II families
cooperate with the food administrator
and the grocer and see that the sugar
is divided equally.
