Food Administration Notes

1t was announced recently that the
American public was asked to en-
force voluntary sugar ration of two
pounds per person per month begin
ming Aug. |. The local food admin
istrator was notified Tuesday that
this ration must be compulsory.
Sugar cards heretofore issued will
not be recalled for correction The
number Of persons In the family is
stated on each card and the consum-
er or the grocer will correct the card
to conform to the new basis.
Statements have appeared in Mas
sachusetts newspapers to the effect
that no more Suga" would be sold on
home canning and preserving certif
Gates. This is true in Massachusetts
but not in Maine. In Massa chusetts
the allotment Of sugar to the State
has been SO far exhausted that Food
Administration officials considered II
necessary to take this step. It has
not appeared necessary in Maine as
yet. Sugar may still be obtained in
Maine for home canning in quaint
ties not exceeding % pounds to a
family.

SasX in charge of the American Red

Il think honesty is the chief trait
Of the Italians! he said THE best
proof of this general statement is

where in Italy, nor do any other
Americans after they have been here
a few weeks. We go away from our
hotels, perhaps for days at a time,
leaving our doors unlocked and all
our personal belongings at the mercy
of the first conner, and vet we never
dream Of losing anything. either
through hotel servants or transients.
Out on the front You can leave
your automobile standing anywhere
you like, with your overcoats or any
ether belongings, and be sure that
nothing will be disturbed. At that
there may be plenty of poor fellows
about who would most gratefully ac-
cept any small present"

Associated Press brought to an Amer
lean dressing station on the banks Of
the Ourcq, a wounded German captain
kept repeating "one, two three" mo-

explanation:
"Oh, all those German officers Do
that"
You see said the nurse. who was
administering ether preliminary to an
operation upon the German officer, the
average person talks when under the

fury old which is claimed by the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts on
one hand and the Chilean govern

DIR. GREENFIELD. WILL
TAKE HIS REINDEER TO
CANADIAN LABRADOR

St. Johns, n F., July 3Q.-After Il
years of experimenting in the rails
ing of Lapland reindeer in northern
Newfoundland, DR.. Wilfred T. Gren-
fell, the Labrador medical mission
ary, has decided to transfer his herd
to Canadian Labrador. An effort
will be made there to introduce a
strain of native caribou blood into
the herd, which has deteriorated
through years of inbreeding. Terri
tory west of Bell Isle Strait in Cana
dian Labrador has been selected for
the new enterprise.
DR.. Grenfell has long held the
theory that the caribou might be in
bred with reindeer to produce a
highly efficient draft animal. suitable
for use along the North coast. He
was unable to give this theory
thorough test in Newfoundland. The
country selected rs the new home or
the reindeer is remote from settled
areas and considered well suited for
the purpose. BY agreement with the
government of the province of Que
bee increases in the herd may be
shipped back to Newfoundland if the
owner desires.
The Grenfell herd consists of 800
animals. virtually the same number
landed by the missionary twelve
wears ago at ST. Anthony when he in
troduced reih5eer to tkNs province.
At. ere -ttsssie the herd numbered 1900
but it decreased as it deteriorated
from lack of new blood. DR.. Grenfel.
who is now in the North country on
missionary work. expects that gov
eminent steamer will transport the
deer to their new feeding grounds
this summer.
