WILL CONFISCATE FLOUR
AND PROSECUTE HOARDFRS

Spokane, Wash, May 21.-So
critical has the wheat situation be-
come and so great is the necessity
for shipment of every possible pound
of flour to the allies that Federal
Food Administrator Hebberd has is
sued another appeal to the people of
Washington to return all flour above
actual minimum household require
ments. Back of the appeal, however,
is a threat of the food administra-
tion to invoke the power of the food
control law against all hoarders of
flour and all penny-patriots who per-
sist in exceeding flour allotments to
the detriment of the government.
IF food fails we can not hold
out, declared Hebberd, in issuing
the appeal to the people. Supply
ing food for the allies is Americas
prime responsibility and privilege.
France, England, Italy, and stricken
Belgium are stalking their existence
on Am ericas food resources, especi-
ally on her wheat Under these cir
| cumstances anyone who boards flour
or other food products not only pro-
longs the war, but actually aids and
comforts the enemy, and lengthens
the casualty lists of our own SOL
diers.'
After conducting an investigation
covering several weeks, food admin
istration officials have determined
that large quantities of flour are be-
ing boarded in cities, towns and in
the country communities of the state.
IT is imperative that this flour be
returned within the next 80 days
for the use of the military and naval
forces and for the allies, according
to Mr.. Hebberd.
No further appeals to patriotism
will be issued" declared Hebberd.
1t is no time to bubble. Those of
Us who remain behind must fortify
the boys at the front, not in loyalty
alone, but by strict observance of
those regulations designed to furnish
the allies with supplies. The need is
SO acute that it is now found neces-
sary to enforce the laws to conserve
supplies and insure quick delivery of
all flour above absolute require
nlents."
Unless an immediate response to
the food administration s appeal is
shown, confiscation of boarded flour,
followed by arrests and prosecution
will result, it was declared at food
administration headquarters. The
federal food law prescribes a fine
for boarding of $4,000, Imprisonment
for two years, or both.
Except in a few cases hoarders in
this state have escaped with having
food stuffs seized and confiscated.
This policy according to Mr.. Heb
berd. will soon cease and criminal
proceedings will be substituted.
Libeling of boarded flour and prose-
cutions have already been started in
Seattle in the federal courts.

LOOK At A CH|LD'S
TONGUE WHEN CROSS
fEvER|SH AND SICK
Take No Chances! Move POisOns From
Liver and Bowels at
Once.

Mothers can rest easy after giving
California Syrup Of Figs" because in
a few hours all the clogged-up waste,
sour bile and fermenting food gently
moves out of the bowels, and you have
a well, playful child again. Children
simply will not take the time from
play to empty their bowels, and they
become tightly packed, liver gets slug
gish and stomach disordered.
When cross, feverish, restless, see if
tongue is coated, then give this de
licious "fruit laxative" Children love
it, and it cannot cause injury. No
difference what ails your little one
if full of cold, or sore throat, dia-
rrhoea, stomach ache, bad breath, re-
member, a gentle "inside cleansing"
should always be the first treatment
given. Full directions for babies, chill
dren of all ages and grown-ups are
printed on each bottle.
Beware of counterfeit fig syrups
Ask your druggist for bottle
of "California Syrup of Figs" then
look carefully and see that it is made
by the california Fig Syrup Com
pany." We make no smaller size.
Hand back with contempt any other
fig syrup.
