SUPERVISOR
WANTS WHEAT MARKETED
FLOUR ORDER LIMITS SUP
PLY TO 80 DAYS

An urgent appeal to the farmers Of
the state of Minnesota to market the
wheat they now have on hand before
May Is, was issued this week by Ma
tional Food Administrator Hoover, in
which the necessity Of this marketing
is brought out by Mr.. Hoover in the
statement that this is a war call from
Uncle Sam who is fighting for his life.
The message reads:
I'm order that we may comply with
wheat and at the same time take care
Of our own domestic supply we urgent
~ need this year an earlier and more
complete marketing Of the wheat in
farmers hands than usual. The allies
are taking from ps 80 per cent of GER
calls other than wheat to mix their
bread. Inasmuch as the people in the
allied countries and the soldiers must
be fed with bread baked in bakeries
it is impossible for them to prepare
bread made wholly with all other cere-
ais. I, therefore, appeal to all Of the
farmers in the state Of Minnesota that
they shall bring all Of their wheat ex-
cept their necessary reserve for seed to
market befor May Is. This is war
call and a service to Uncle Sam who is
fighting for his life. If your local mil
Ter is unable to buy all the wheat that
is offered, market it in the customary
trade channels through which it will
reach the. food administration grain
corporation. 5-.~--
The first indication of a systematic
effort on the part of the5food admins
tration to seek out and punish the
hoardcr of flour is shown. in a report
from the national food administration
that they will shortly Issue orders for a
survey Of the flour supply Of the coun-
try. The survey it is Indicated will re-
quire every individual to give an ac-
count of the amount Of flour he has on
hand on certain date. The food ad-
ministration regulations permit an in
dividual or a CONNIE rcial concern to
have no more than a 30-dayf supply Of
wheat flour on hand at any time and
persons with more than that amount
are in violation Of the boarding act
which means serious puni shment if con-
victed. The state food administration
has announced that it will not a:be dis
posed to act harshly with individuals
who voluntarily report Surplus and
show a Willingness to be fair now and
get the -four into the regular channels
of trade. Where hoarder attempts to
conceal the fact and forceful measures
are necessary to secure information
concerning a supply, prosecution will
undoubtedly follow.

BARRY COUNTY BOY
RECEIVES HIGH HONOR

Elden Dummit, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
F. r. Dummit, who is studying law
in Lexington, KY, writes that he won
first honors in great debate held at
Georgetown, Ky. Mr.. Dummit grad
uated from Monett high school in
1915. His friends and relatives GER
tainly wish him well in the great eff
fort he is. putting forth.
The following clipping is from a
leading Lexington paper:
championship Of the Intercolle-
giate Debating Association of the
state was won by the two Kentucky
teams Thursday night by winning
both debates, one with Pennsylvania
and one with Georgetown.
"The question was, Resolved that
the Monroe Doctrine should be aban-
doned,' and Kentucky's team for the
affirmative was composed of E. Dunn
init and L. F. Bischoff, who debated
H. Gudgel and c. Stevenson, of Tran
sylvania in chapel. The negative
team was composed of E. E. Rice and
Ed Dabney, who debated Squire Og-
den and I. C. Powers, of Georgetown,
at Georgetown.
Kentucky was very fortunate in the
selection of the debaters for this
years teams. All the men are of
much ability and all are true Ken
lucky orators but one, but he is a
close neighbor geographically and a
closer one forensically. Dummit,
from Missouri, showed 'em' and did
his part in winning. Dabney and
Rice experienced little difficulty in
defeating Georgetown, as they are
both splendid speakers and logicians.
Bischof, of Louisville, is a splendid
speaker.
